NHL 26 news?

What r we testing with this nhl playtest? Can u give us a feature list so we can keep an eye out while playing?

Or atleast any news? Trailer, features etc

Hey man do you know when we will get the email from you guys about nhl 26 play test that is suppose to happen tomorrow?

Let's hope you guys leave out the copy/paste button out.....get some NEW commentating and still waiting on next gen graphics 

NHL 22 tried to go the more realistic route and it was widely disapproved as well. People didn't like that they couldn't fire a pass full speed at a player and just pick it up like nothing. Also thought the skating was a bit sluggish and awkward. At least this meter mimics something like in real life, although not well as I stated in my "Full Pressure system needs to change" where if you want my biggest issue its located here.

The meter remains filled and drains at an ENORMOUSLY SLOW rate when you leave the zone which is what causes these "1 shot" full pressure moments and is completely opposite of the purpose of it IMO. Anyways this does add some realism into the game. As for the hitting, I do think the hitting assistance is too high and should be a little more skill and positioning based. I feel, given the rarity of open ice hitting in real life, that it is a much more common in game occurrence than it should be so I hope to see that tuned down a bit for 26.

Please turn down the hitting take out the game momentum meter and make the game play more realistic like couple years ago and less arcade. Add 6 style arenas like double deck capacity arena, small capacity round arena seating, large capacity round arena seating, a horseshoe shaped arena seating, and stands just on each side of arena not ends. Use these 6 styles to teams closer to actual arena design and use a scoreboard like they have to get closer to their actual arena design instead of same designed arena for all teams not in NHL. Would really add to realism of game 

Those accepted into the playtest will get an email before it begins so keep an eye out. Thanks!

Now that the playtest is announced can we expect to know if weve been accepted into the playtest?  Or can we get a more refined eta on when users will be accepted? Thanks.
