The latest tuner update ain't it
Whatever the latest tuner update did basically turned the game back into NHL24 which is step in the wrong direction. The tuner configuration when the game released and even in Early Access felt like ...

Community ManagerCan you be more specific with what you feel changed? We have not released a tuner yet for NHL 25.
Yeah, sorry but I take everything ya'll say with a grain of salt. The game yesterday in WOC feels like a different game from what it was in Early Access.
If it's not a tuner update, then something else affected the gameplay. It just feels sloppy now. Less responsive, harder time gathering pucks, delayed pokechecks and hits. Something feels way off.

You're welcome to provide some video if you like. Nothing changed with what you're mentioning though.
I'm not doing that because that isn't my job. I'm the consumer giving you feedback and your dev team can look into what changed if they want. As I said before, if it's not a tuner update and you claim there hasn't been a new release, then something else has affected the gameplay. I'm genuinely curious how forwards got faster, stick lifts became worse, and hitting stopped registering between Early Access and today.
I’m going to have to agree with you. Yesterday I was getting so frustrated and couldn’t put my finger on it. I’d knock the AI off the puck and the puck would be behind me and the AI. The Ai would reach backwards through me to retrieve the puck and would pull the puck literally through my player and keep skating. Loose pucks can be impossible to pick up sometimes. Once you’re at pro or above it’s basically impossible to knock them off the puck sometimes, yet I get checked from literally behind and loose the puck. You also can’t shake the AI at all. Turn left and right as much as you want the AI will be all over your **bleep**. Doesn’t matter if you have the faster player with more stamina, the AI will catch up and check you from behind.
