Thanks for the response! I’d also like to share a couple more ideas for Be A Pro that could make the experience deeper and more authentic:
- Shot/Pass Bias at Career Start
At the beginning of a Be A Pro career, one of the journalist questions could ask the player to describe their style: “Are you the type of player who looks for the pass first, or the shot first?”
Depending on the answer, the game could automatically set the player’s shot/pass bias. This would add more individuality right from the start of a career. - Big Rig X-Factor Usage
In my opinion, the Big Rig X-Factor should be considered a core ability for players who are strong on the puck and skilled at protecting it anywhere on the ice. A perfect real-life example is Sidney Crosby – he’s the master of puck protection.
Currently, Unstoppable doesn’t really fit that style, because Crosby isn’t a brute-force hitter with reverse checks. Instead, his game is all about puck strength, positioning, and control. The Big Rig animation with the extended arm is great and really captures that style. That’s why I believe Big Rig should be a base X-Factor for players defined by puck strength and protection.

Another indicator that the xfactors are not setup right is when you create a customer player and assign xfactors. The categorization of the xfactors there seem way off. Im at work so can’t provide a specific example but it’s pretty evident when going through player creation process.
