Be A Pro is broken and EA doesn't understand this or doesn't care.

What is form score and why does it outweigh goal scoring and winning games? For what reason would a coach demote their leading goal scorer? What does this form score nonsense have anything to do with real hockey? This doesn't even get into the fact that the AI is completely backwards. Your AI teammates are working as soft opposition in this game. Constantly hiding behind checks and only passing at the least opportune moment. The game mode was bad, Ea has gone in and turn bad into utterly unplayable. Are they aware of this? Are they busy patting themselves on the back for actually doing something to realize what they have done is a disaster?

    EA does NOT care. everyone is complaining about the form score (me included) but what has been going on for YEARS now is the way they punish the player for the AI teammates mistakes. here are 3 videos from a game that I just got done.

    1rst and 2nd video) how come NO ONE came to help me while I was PINNED AGAINST THE BOARDS. the AI teammate that I HELPED just leaves me. then the other team gets the puck, goes down and scores AND I GET A MISSED ASSIGNEMENT!?!?!?!?! WTH.

    last video) I go down and block a shot, the puck goes right back to the guy who just shot, and because EA decides how long it takes to get back up from blocking a shot, he shoots AROUND ME and scores AND I GET ANOTHER MISSED ASSIGNEMENT!?!?!?!?!?!. if that was anyone's fault it was 62 for stupidly going sideways before trying to hit the shooter but nope, always the players fault

    please for the love of Almighty God fix this. I get more pissed off because of being gigged for things I can't control than ANYTHING.

    and there was another update from 1.012.000 to 1.013.000 but I can't find what the update was about. don't see any new update news on the EA main nhl26 website, yet

    Why weren’t they investigated before you guys marketed an experience that’s “more immersive than ever”?

    I’ve seen it fluctuate between the two since release. I have no idea how the game determines which it’s going to be. I read that some players have claimed amounts up to 9 but I’ve never received more than 6.

    Its dependent on your current health. If you are Tired or Fatigued at the end of week you will receive 5 instead of 6 energy.

    oookk. this is not to you but that's freaking stupid. you should get MORE if your tired no the other way around. plus I just got an update for the game (1.014.000) but can't find out what's it about. anyone know?

    edit: never mind I found the post about the update and of course it's for the online people. just screw the offline players who spend the same amount of money for the game

    It’s been over 2 months and it’s still completely ridiculous. It needs sorting. At the very least improve team mate ai, even will decent sliders it’s so frustrating when they just skate into the other team in your own zone. 

  • They've totally ruined Be A Pro, I would get a refund if I could. I will NOT be recommending this game series to Anyone and EA has gone to the dark side.

    Therein lies the biggest problem I've seen so far, at the end of the week you have to put all those points into fatigue so you can play normally on the ice and with no points to build your player, totally backwards. I'll not buy another version of this game and wish I could get a refund on 26, I'm going to uninstall it and go back to 25.
