Congrats

I thought the title couldnt get any worse. You guys said hold my beer. Just wow. The matchups the passing, the goalie animations. The home and away splits. It is not only the least fun ive ever had playing an online video game its also the absolute worst dog water version NHL has ever put out. 

Congrats this team is the worst in development than Any other. Id rather play Gretzky hockey 95. 

The animal, ghosts, crustaceans,  are NOT in the game. Ive never been to a Rangers game and been like ooooh look at Billy Polar Bear. Positively insane in club games especially. Make a veraion for 6 year olds . Oh I cant wait to watch a Jack O' Latern play hockey with a hole in his head but this game makes me feel like I have my very own hole in my head. 

You took something so dear to a community and progressively have ruined it over 5 years. 19 was okay. You took stuff out that was in there in 23. Why? Offering nothing new but tummy saves and God awful passing. Dont even start about the L2 fake skating that we were assured had been removed and taken out in this years version. Nope you lied. Purposely falsely mislead people. 

This was something I looked forwrd to. Now I never want to play again. I know im critical but its absurd at this point. Why dont you guys care? 

Its unfathomable and pathetic. Fake garbage hockey. EA sports its in your pockets. Thanks for ruining the only thing I looked forward to. Such an abject failure from conception to release. Someone explain how it gets worse each update. Anyone got answers? Nah we are all suckers for thinking it will be better.  Good things other stuff drops soon and league is almost over.

  • If you were to map out a trend regarding this game. You would find that in the past several years, this franchise has bit by bit, reduced all aspects of the game. From rewards, over inflated pack prices for content not worth half the value. They have even gone to the point of involvement in the game being diminished. Use to have reward updates every week in Squad Battles. But now they have implemented this 55 day XP format with rewards that are repititious, absolutely removing any incentive to challenging skills. Constantly changing objectives, where to achieve them, you have to alter your team. ToTW, Pinnacle players, and on and on. They have made half the available packs UT. And have even brought out an Account Bound concept. Making the card absolutely useless, if not used. They have now put in place the Cup Chase. 18 games to make the playoff round.  How many times can you keep winning this cup, before you want to start banging your head into a wall. And if won. Same cards. You know the game has gone downhill, when the goal of the XP format, can be attained by everyone. Same rewards, same card at the end of the 2 month ordeal. The one thing this franchise does not do, and quite possibly dont care. Is recognizing the problems the game has, and correcting them. The community and suggestions offered, are almost entirely ignored. What seems to be the driving force behind this game is $. And it looks like all else is not important. SO! In summation. I agree with your initial notation regarding the enjoyment being eroded. In 24 everyone looked forward to 25 and improvements. In 25 we were still waiting for those improvements. So, what can we expect in 27. Lol  Good post bud. Thumbs up!

  • Yeah the game sucks. With what little free time I have left, I can’t dedicate it to this game. Every time I play I’m left just scratching my head, wtf just happened. I cannot honestly think of one positive aspect of the game. I’ve played this franchise for a long, long time. I’ve deleted the game from my system and will no longer play it. BTW the EA, it’s in your pockets comment was great, gave me a **bleep** good laugh.
