Speed glitch

Why is it so hard to release a game without a speed glitch?

and why isnt the speed glitching fixed in an emergency patch? 

Is the game literally designed to have these speed glitches in? 

Its once again all about beating defense with a glitched tool all game long.  ballerina is back, 

 

ballerina plays didnt used to be an issue in nhl 10-12 because there was no "true performance skating" engine so you didnt "realistically" took yourself out of the play as a defenseman while trying to fight against unrealistic ballerina moves by an offensive player. 

But yah, why cant we just start with the basics, removing a game breaking bug that allows speed glitching.

      I did not take a video...I know its easy and im lazy but I also thought this was super common knowledge? 

      Just hit LT while skating with puck and you gain a boost and from what i understand, if you get puck and "protect puck" shortly before using LT you also gain a large speed boost. 

      Its rampant throughout the game right now and it makes Defense completely stupid because nomatter your stats you can get burned so the only real defense is playing further back to account for the speed glitch. 

      How is it that everyone but EA knows about this. 

       

      • Yeah I'm not a fan of it and reported on it.  I too also hope they find a way to curb it down.  People also finding nifty ways to LT to keep their back to plays is another fun one too.
