Today's trolls
"[REMOVED]"(ps) & "[REMOVED]"(xbox) are this month's trolls. How do we report players like this? Ones that spam for the puck whenever the compie has it, so no plays can be made. & ones that constantl...
I am trying to get something done about this. If you get any video, send it to me in a private message.
Normally, we just action offensive names. I'd love to see people actioned for trolling. Obviously, the in-game countermeasures have room for improvement.
I mean really tho, You can get banned for a silly name but can't be banned for literal Trolling people in games? What the heck is the EA team even thinking? That makes 0 sense on any level. Thank you for at least trying to get something done, I know you are working to get this game to a more competitive state which we all appreciate :) I personally have never had either of them in my games but I know of them and would back out instantly if I seen them just sad that they can't be banned for those type of things hopefully it changes in the future.
It's easy to see when someone has an offensive name. Of course, there are times when it's easy to see someone is griefing other players. However, we don't really have a good system in place for that. We'd need a team available to review the very high number of videos we'd receive. Not to mention the large amount of time dedicated to reviewing video of players that shouldn't be actioned. I'm sure we'd get a lot of reports that someone is cheating or griefing just because they took a loss. So, it's a use of resources that could otherwise be put back into the game, but instead would be used to make drop-ins more friendly. Would that be worth sacrificing work on the game that the community would rather have?
Also, and I get this doesn't resolve the issue, you can better avoid toxic drop-in players by only dropping in on clubs. I will back out of lobbies until I get matched with a club. The play is normally far better than a full team of randoms. I truly wish we had a better system for actioning trolling. We need to do better here. Drop-ins are an introduction to this mode for many and I'm sure some have been scared off because of those types of players. Regardless, no matter how many anti-griefing features we add or if we started taking reports for this, people will always find a way to troll. It's most likely a never ending battle.

It would be amazing if NHL 26 included the option to search for club games only as a drop-in player.
I agree. I'll pass on the request. I'd love to see that happen.
