We unlocked that horrendous junior 4-rink atrocity from one of the playoff bags and some useless props nobody bothers to hang in the rafters so I took the opportunity to change a goal song - that's where I noticed the black duck logo at center ice. No big deal, it always shows up because that's just normal nowadays, but when I left I noticed the jerseys were black too - Again, no big deal since its normal (eye rolling, but normal) - Just to be on the safe side I made sure not to save (not that anything was changed anyway), but it wasn't until first faceoff I actually realized we were stuck with default.
I get flak for calling devs out and it makes me mad - Like, seriously how hard is it to fix something like this? Blunders like this, especially when they constantly happen year after year, would warrant firing in any other field (heck, it would in any other game studio but EA is just built different). I shouldn't have to be sorry for saying I would be so ashamed to say I worked on NHL if I was one of the devs. If they truly could fix it and some higher up told them not to then they should be standing up to it internally but I guess nobody has the guts/spine to do so. Always hush hush, don't say that out loud but stop messing with my team like this.
