You can skate past AI defense

The year is 2024, about to be 2025. 

How is it possible you can literally hold up on your left stick and get a breakaway in EASHL Every. Single. Play. 

Not only that, but in the offensive zone the AI Defenseman have NO situational awareness and refuse to leave the O-Zone even if theres a lose puck at the blueline and they should be preparing to defend the rush. 

Instead of preparing to defend the rush, they ONLY see that the puck is inside the O-Zone which = They are on full offensive(even on the MOST defensive and passive settings)and setting screens infront of the net. 

 

The AI were literally, and this is not hyperbole, better in 2005

  • It truly is a joke... I deal with the same stuff. CPU Goalies are absolutely terrible as well

  • Agreed. The AI defense still giving up breakaways all the time is disappointing. One of the main items I had hoped they would fix this year. Feel like I say this way too much about this game but, maybe next year lol
