Just wow! Come on really?

Just played a HUT matchup. I won 4-0 regardless of how bad the gameplay was. Second game this was abused more often and I lost by a puck on the string issue. Anyways I counted the steps my opponent took on the hit and it was about 11. So this was a blatant charge if I’m not mistaken. I have played hockey for over 28 years and this would have been called. Heck even in my beer league it gets called. I get this is a video game but why has it become so arcade that penalties like this don’t get called anymore? The devs really need to stop making excuses at this point because why should we have to pay for a half-finished product? On your end it’s not a big deal because you get the game free. When people pay for this product it’s a different story. If this doesn’t get fixed it’s going to be quite mind boggling. It’s a big reason why E-sports Competitions don’t want to benefit this series. Do better!

  • Ive posted about this many many times with video and they just don't care,like I've been  saying ever since they introduced total control  penalties like open ice charging,elbowing and roughing have been totally removed from the game I laugh every time they throw the word accountability around becaus  in  this game there's  zero accountability for skating around with your players elbows up and skating way across the ice to throw a body check

    I share your sentiment. The lack of correcting the problems, is this franchises major issue.

    It’s unreal how awful this series is getting. I skipped 25 for a reason and depending if the devs do fix this issue amongst other gameplay problems it might determine my future purchases. The fact Aljo is the only one communicating on the forums as much as he can shows a lack of respect for their consumers. We literally are left with a half-made product for full price that doesn’t work as advertised.

    Remember in the past several years, how the interference penalty was constantly called. Well they fixed that. But in doing so. They forgot there were other penalties that could be called. This has now become a non contact sort of league, where penalties if called. Are against you. This has been an issue (penalties), since the game came out. Solution! Have to wait till 27 to find out. Or 28!
