GM connected is back!

Never thought I’d be alive to see the day. All the longtime nhl fans who have waited 14 years for this, enjoy it, it’s finally happened

    Not enough people clocked this screenshot in the trailer for GM Connected. "teams without a human user cannot be controlled, traded with, or played against". Also its only 1 season long. So in other words they have again rendered the mode useless and very few people will play it, again.

    More like “connected 1 season.” What a joke. I can’t believe (I can) they fumbled this so hard.

    Who cares. Telling everyone what they already know. I hated that mode. All online modes matter of fact.

    Why does my reply that highlights the extreme limitations of this "new" gm connected keep getting deleted? Im using a screenshot from your own trailer to highlight the fact that this mode is only 1 season and doesnt allow users to interact with or play against Ai teams which renders the mode nearly useless.

    Has been confirmed it is not a single season, however no draft, roster moved and trades carry over but no progression and no contracts/retirements.

    In classic EA fashion they bring it back completely barebones. It's actually crazy they thought this was a good idea to ship with. When they aren't seeing the engagement in the mode they would like, will they blame the players again?

    Yeah I ran a Finnish GMC league for two years back in the day, with humans running most of the teams for six seasons. It was a wonderful game mode, and quite a few of those players reached out when news of the return of GMC broke. There was genuine excitement in the air, which soon disappeared after the details started doing rounds. I can’t believe EA could be messing this up after over tens years of pretending no one liked the mode. I hope they’ll fix this and bring back the “real GMC”.
