Controller Vibration for All Xbox Models

The whole point of NHL 25 is the newly modified Ice-Q. Realtime physics and attributes to on ice movement. However, with no controller vibration it renders the game useless. It does not make it fun, you can't even hit a player on the other team. You do not know when you hit another play or even shoot a shot because vibration usually would show that. Vibration is what makes the game and there is no controller vibration whatsoever. Is EA doing anything to address this issue? What do other gamers have to say?

    Hi there. We are investigating the issue with vibration. I don't have an ETA on a fix. We'll have to wait and see what is addressed in the next update.

    Thank you for the response. It would be nice to have it fixed because that is the whole point of playing the game.

      You're very welcome. For many of us, the point of playing the game is to enjoy the competitive nature of the sport. For me, the vibration is distracting so I turned it off years ago. However, I also realize there are players like yourself where the point of the game is to feel the action through the rumble of the controller. Hopefully, we'll have this resolved sooner than later.

        Thank you and in addition the vibration is fun. 

  • Only work around until they fix it, is two connect two controllers, while in game turn off and on the main controller eventually you will get vibration, sometimes takes more than one attempt with two controllers connected to get the vibration but works as work around.
