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.

The fact is that no move or skill is overly used in an average NHL hockey game - that is what they meant I believe. I play offline only (gave up on online in NHL 22) - there is no issue with it at all. Works pretty well and the AI can keep up with it, without an issue (higher difficulty used)

When we test this, we're doing more than just looking at it. There is data to back up that there is no boost of speed. Your player is not actually speeding up. It's more likely they should be losing speed for doing this. Again, it's being investigated.

I see it each year you watch the "pro" players and all they do is go in practice and try to find exploits for days an master them. later they become widespread to the larger audience who might know hockey but decide to use the tools everyone else is using.

the pros of EA NHL = Jake Paul in boxing.
