After many many hours of this game how do you rate it?.

Gameplay is with the right sliders best ever. The things around need to be better. Especialy faces, options to create generic players, player pic upload option, equipment things ......

I agree with the new way of dumping the puck. They need to go back to how it used to be, there's much less momentum to the puck when you dump it out. Where as before you're able to lift the puck a lot easier.

You can dump the puck but you have to charge it which is a joke ,the reason why they nerfed it was to make sure their pressure system work which is another joke 

And I agree the game feels and looks arcadey especially with elite truculence and now we have flip up hut because of elite quick release 

And let's not forget..international ice which people use it to puck rag especially if they know how to LT ...i guess these devs love toxic game play 

And lets not also forget the stick lift which was nerfed as well as the poke check 

And I agree the goalies are god awful  ..well my opponents goalies play lights out while my goalie does this

Update....I forgot to mention the penalties that have been taken out of the game to make total control  look like the greatest thing ever which it's not ,open ice  charging,elbowing and roughing and will thrown in reverse hitting which also should have penalties called against it when using it and please don't ask  clips I've already posted them ....all of this is for online play 

And having  a salary cap for HUT is stupid and line combinations are also stupid I want to build my team my way not how some dev thinks how he would build it 

A one 

1/10

Gameplay looks and plays like a clunky mess. 

Terrible A.I.

Awful goalies.

Feels like a chore to play.

Doesn't feel ike you're playing an NHL game. Just arcade, lazy slop.

Can't dump the puck anymore even though it happens about 20 times a game in the NHL.

Lazy lack of patches. 

Just feels awful in every aspect.

Game should be no more than $40 on release. And even that is expensive.

Hi everyone,

​I’d like to suggest a slight buff for the AI goalies. Currently, they feel like they are missing just a bit of consistency, especially in specific situations (like cross-crease movements or low-percentage shots).

​I don’t think they need a massive overhaul, but a small boost to their reaction times and positioning would make the gameplay feel much more balanced and rewarding.

​I've heard this feedback has already been shared with the dev team, but I wanted to add my support for this change to help improve the overall experience.
