Why has this just turned back into NHL StraightLining 24

You guys have successfully tuned the AI back to the same incompetent pilons as before and online is just back to straight lining down the wing and skating in circles. You guys to need to patch in the slow speed into the offensive zone ragging. Any time someone is skating in multiple circles over and over slow them down like you do in the D zone or neutral zone. It's not even hockey anymore.

    The game is in such a terrible state right now. Hitting is nerfed into the ground it's so boring to play. Skate into their zone and spin around non stop because I can't be hit and force a One Tee. Fun times. Tripping penalties is so frequent because spamming pokes is the only defense option, that and block shots.

  • Hitting isn't nerfed. It just doesn't have the auto lock on speed boost **bleep** like last year. In absolutely no way was that better last year with hitting unless you're one of those total people that just hold B/O and chase people around the zone trying to hit them. It's all defendable regardless. I was more asking them why they tuned it essentially back to 24. Idk if you played the early access but it actually felt like a new AI with ICE Q actually existing and now it just feels like 24s incompetent AI all over again
