Something changed in the gameplay...
I've seen a few post here and on Reddit that I couldn't agree more with. Since the last update about a week ago something definitely changed in the gameplay. I've seen your awnser on a thread ...

Community ManagerAs mentioned previously, nothing has changed with gameplay speed. We are specifically avoiding doing that. I'm not guaranteeing it will never change, but it hasn't so far. As with every year, the community adjusts and adapts to the new gameplay. The speed has not been modified from launch.
Could you please ask them to do something about the length of time it takes a player to get up after a "big hit." Either the time it takes to get up should be reduced or the referee should blow the whistle the instant the injured player's team gets the puck.
No NHL referee would let someone lay on the ice that long without stopping play.
It would be REALLY nice if we could see what strategy our player is supposed to be using in BE A PRO
What about the other things? How is there way more interceptions from behind without even looking at the puck? You can't even make a breakout pass if there's other guys in a 3 meter area of the guy you try to reach, even if they're NOT facing the puck and couldn't technically intercept it.. Because they would.
Why small bumps makes you loose the puck and fall on the ice for 5 meters as if we had 3 in balance?
What's up with passing in the o-zone? Something feels off.
The AI difficulty in Squad Battle and moments is exaggerated (too aggressive, too much hitting, it's like they're playing NFL, I don't know) and there's definitely something off with the PRO difficulty, it seems even harder that the other difficulties..
And the slow menus, specifically in HUT, is there a patch that can be done?..- EA_Aljo
All that's changed is what has been listed in the patch notes. Nothing else.
Can you get a video of the slow menus? I'm not aware of other reports of that.
I'm also not aware of any issues with the Pro difficulty. I've been playing on Superstar personally. Haven't tried Pro yet.
I'm also not aware of issues with passing in the O zone. That's something I'd need video of. I do a lot of passing in my O zone and they seem to be working fine. What's your online pass assist set to? If you're playing offline, what do you have your passing slider at?
What is going on with the gameplay, seriously? I play EASHL competitively and it’s like a completely different game as of last week. Can you roll back on the tuner or something? We’re back to skating in straight lines to burn the D, the skill gap is gone again. It’s all about straight line speed again just like last year. Please fix? You’ve completely taken the fun out of the game with the latest changes, good team play does not get rewarded. Stop catering to 12 year olds who only know how to skate in straight lines.
