I'm so glad I've been saving my money and skipping these iterations. If EA can't fix past issues that are considered a catastrophic bug, I've got no interest in anything "new" they put out.
It’s such a bummer being hockey fans when there isn’t any new playable NHL sports games on the market. Franchise hockey manager is neat, and Hockey Legacy Manager is great as well, and the franchise AI, trading, drafting, development etc BLOWS EA’s out of the water, but there is no on ice gameplay which is the only bad thing about those games.
EA’s NHL’s franchise AI, trading, drafting, development, laggy menus, locked features, broken features etc may all be bad, but they do have on ice gameplay (even if the AI is still terrible again this year lol)
Such a huge, albeit common, letdown by EA. I still believe that separating the modes into their own games is the way to go. Put HUT/EASHL into their own little microtransaction live-service program.
Then bundle BAP/FM/Seasons etc into its own game. It can’t get any worse.. right?
