Offline gameplay so far

Question

Just bought it on Sale. Gameplay feels different than 25. More on rails when skating (reminds me of NHL 14)and stickhandling feels a little slower. Passing feels much better in terms of getting pucks through seams.

I have to say that I have the gameplay-sliders changed a lot like I did on NHL 25.

Gamespeed 0, Attributes 10

Shooting in power and accuracy up.

Passing interception 0

Goalies 100 on everything except passing

Haven't tried BAP but I fear that the sliders still not saving.

Don't be so negative on reviews its not that bad considering the small developement group.

It is bad when overall it's worse than last year, it's nhl hitz remake with no cpu stick penalties offline. The cpu players cannot poke check so knock you over to get the puck. The lag on xbox end of period and window mode end of penalties ect. Which add nothing to the game. You don't even always get an animation when you change or pull the netminder or call a timeout. Pile of c....p

I wouldn't say its worse than last year. The CPU defense remains very bad especially considering the advertised gameplay emphasis on realism. That makes BAP not really enjoyable plus the sliders which are still not saving. I don't care much about cutsceness if the gameplay is fun.

But including a full juniorseason to determin your draftvalue would be the most motivating inclusion like in NHL 14.

After playing with the sliders in NHL 25 i enjoyed a new NHL Game for the first time since NHL 14 and was no fun to play the old one anymore.
