Hitting

Ea. I believe its time for you to take an in depth dive regarding your hitting element, and your definition as to what hit means. Ever since you brought that inept shoulder checking theme into the game. The hitting element has apparently no effect in the registering of the hits themselves.  How is it, that in the objectives, it calls for hits, while the game stats also record hits. However after a complered game. The game hit stat shows 2, while the objective shows 8. Where is the rationale in this obvious double interpretation of the meaning hit. You at times variate between body check and hit. However. A body check is considered a hit by all NHL statistics. Its got to the point now, that the algorithyms regarding hits, has the AI anticipating a proposed hit, and alludes it by using manouvers, the player card should be incapable of performing. Why the individual player cards capabilities are questionable at best. As level of play changes, so do the attributes. Skating. Shooting. Hands. Etc. In summation. Re-establish the hitting format, as the one that exists now. Isnt worth the word. HIT!

    you can say that again. nearly every time I go to check someone, they know exactly where I am going and maneuver away from me or gives me the dreaded reverse check that sends ME to the ice. that reverse check is so overpowered it is sickening. and what kills me is that they don't even lose the puck when they reverse check. granted I have over 150 checks midway through the season but I'm a defenseman and that's what I do most of the game is hit people. also the animation for the shoulder check is way to long. if you don't knock them down they recover faster that you and blow by you. that's a bunch of crap to.
