NHL 26 WISHLIST

I'm a big fan of the games and am a Be A Pro merchant. I've played the last 10 NHL games, and have been wondering why it's so easy to become the captain in Be A Pro. The few things I want for NHL 26 Be A Pro are very simple:

  • NHL 19 mechanics where it took 3-4 seasons to get the A, and 2-3 seasons after that to get the C. 
    • Since then, you could pretty much immediately become captain after a single season in every Be A Pro. I would love to see them implement these mechanics into the next game. 
      • It not only gives you something to work towards, but also adds a level a realism to the game. 
  • Please give less dialogue in Be a Pro and make it easier to sim.
    • With so many random side missions and interactions, it makes it difficult to want to really grind the career and play for a while.
    • NHL 19 is a perfect example of what my ideal Be A Pro would look like.
  • Fix the Low, High, and Fixed camera angles to make them not spin in 360 degrees.
    • Why not just make it like the FIFA career camera?

    A new BAP intro scene would be nice, its been the exact same thing for years. same pond up on a mountain with the same character introduction. Honestly if you guys wanted to make BAP seem fresh change this or even add a few different intro scenes that way if you restart your career or multiple careers your not getting the same boring introduction every time you make a new character.

    Add a settings menu to WOC as well. The fact that we have to wait until we are in game to change our settings is just horrible when other modes such as HUT allow you to access the settings menu from the HUT menu.

    If you're frequently disconnecting, most likely there's an issue with your connection. We can go through some troubleshooting if that's the case.

    If you're noticing bugs, please get them reported so we can hopefully address those at some point.

  • Id love if if they touched up eahsl too. The menu system is terrible and laggy. The match making is archaic too. Way too much bugs and crashing and disconnects resulting in losses of huge amounts of RP

    Sorry about that. We haven't announced what's coming for the future. I'll pass the feedback on to the team though. Thanks!

    Are you saying it's not supported now (which we know), or that it's already been decided that it won't be supported in NHL 26?  The topic is wish list for NHL 26... this would be a nice feature to have and the Xbox is capable of it.

    Unfortunately, couch co-op is still limited to 4 controllers.

    EA_Aljo  Since Xbox X|S can support up to 8 controllers is there any talk about being able to support 6 player couch co op in NHL 26 or can it be added to the wish list?  I used to have start a season mode with my brothers and cousins every year where we'd get together at my brother's house and play as a full team but, 6 player support hasn't been a thing since like NHL16...

    ALSO: The cinematic goal view thing is horrible and the entire community can agree on that. That should either be an option to turn on or off, or taken out of the game entirely.
