BaP Feedback

I really wanted to enjoy being a pro goalie, and for the first handful of games, it is enjoyable. The thing is, it has a difficulty curve that is a vertical line, and for someone who, due to work and other commitments, I can't dedicate hours a day to this, it becomes extremely frustrating to say the least. There are moments when I can't even move and just sit there and watch the puck go in. Shutouts, nah, that's not a thing anymore. Breakaways always scoring, even when I am in the perfect position, makes sense. This pile of hot garbage soup wrapped up in a fancy package just further proves that EA no longer cares about making good games and only seems to care about money... oh, and micro transactions in a hockey game, really, EA? I hope the NHL wakes up and pulls the licensing from you. EA went from being a company that cared about its customers to a corporate nightmare that only cares about taking money. FIX the Game and stop releasing garbage with features that seem like an afterthought put in 5 min before release. DO you even have any frame of idea how goaltending works?

  • BAP goalie is tough. Lots of missed opportunities here. The goalie animations are terrible at best. The movements based on goalie stance is horrendous. Your “style” of goalie, Butterfly, Hybrid, Stand up does not matter. It affects nothing. All stats will be the exact same. 

    Gameplay is okay, but at times, yes the goalie gets stuck in the save animation. Usually this happens when a shot is beyond the red dots, the goalie will make a save, then stay there for almost a second. If there is a rebound, youre done. 

    I wish you could change your goalie stance any time you want. Why am I locked into 1 stance the rest of my career? 

    Wish there was a way to save goalie pad builds. Just give me one slot to save. 

    Goalie masks need a refresher or update. Or give us the ability to create out own in BAP ONLY. That way no one has to see if one creates anything offensive. 

    Thats what I can think of right now, but it was better in previous years versions.
