Anyone else have problems with player switching?
I’m really trying to use the R2/Right stick system but half the time it doesn’t switch to the guy I want.

Community ManagerI personally put pass assist at 100%. The lower it is, the less assist you have so your aim needs to be better. This is good when you want to lead a player or send a pass to open ice and chase it down. At 100% though, it's rare that I hit an unintended target due to the high assist.
It would be good to get video showing the issue you're having with icon passing. Let me know if you can get one.
You could have a full stamina player making the pass to a guy that has zero stamina, yet somehow the player with full stamina is effected by the other player.
Can you explain this better? How is the full stamina player being affected?
I hope you play HUT again this year, Aljo. I think it's better when you can relate to us a little better by playing the same mode
I hope so too. It just depends. EASHL has always been my main mode. I played HUT mainly to improve my own skill and get first hand experience with how people are playing. I could make a competitive team just by grinding out a few SB games a day. Now, there's more to do and it's more involved. I'll give it a shot again though when 26 releases and see what happens. I agree though, it helps me relate to you all better and that's something I feel bad for not keeping up on.
i'll see what i can do.
In the meantime, here's a video of the AI skating away from the puck haha..it's been a wild ride this year, to say the least. And aslo a screen shot of all 5, yes ALL 5 of my players in a straight line after a center ice faceoff, after a goal. This happens a lot. Could be my strategies, but no where on the planet would a hockey team coach their players to do this, i'm sure :D. this has happened on many occasions. this particular screenshot is late in the 3rd after i just took the lead, or tied it, can't recall. You can imagine the choice words i had seeing all 5 guys come to the middle of the ice while he goes down the side of it. I think i see where EA is taking this game, but we have a long way to go. I'm hopeful ICE-Q 2 order whatever it's called will help keep the players A) from doing things like this, and B) stay out of my way. time will tell

Thanks for these. Obviously, the AI isn't making perfect decisions every time. We've had a lot of feedback on them so hopefully, you'll notice improvements with them in 26.
agreed. The AI generally makes the wrong decision tbh but also it's hard when i'm doing things that may go against what it thinks should be happening. I understand all that. We need the AI to learn based on what we do, not what it wants to do, if that makes sense
