Opening week bugs

So far, in NHL 26, BAP mode, I’ve my patience limit with resetting ALL of my settings every match. I’m setting everything in the BAP lobby, play a match, then I go in to check and my settings are reverted to default settings. I’m pretty sure the settings aren’t saving in the first place as I’ve turned aggression down significantly and I’m still seeing upwards of 70 hits per game. Another standing issue is I’ve set my game time to 5 minutes, but I get the cue to change it every match. Another reason I don’t think the game is saving my settings. The entirety of the game reminds me of NHL 20, as though the programmers went back to that model, updated the graphics engine, and updated the lobby’s. Also, so far, I haven’t been able to do a proper wrister due to my X factor being quick release. I hope this early release was a way to “beta” this game, but it seems like they didn’t put much effort into creating a “new game” as much as rehashing an old one and shining the **bleep**. In any case EA, I can make an entire list of bugs NHL 26 is experiencing and pass them along to you. I figured your game testers would have figured all this out prior to a major title release. Figure it out.

  • So go to the accessibility section (controller), and create a new preset. Name it whatever. Set up your options and sliders. Go back to controller accessibility, right stick to save it. 

    When you go into a new game, pick whatever time option. When you get to the point you can start the game, go to settings(very bottom option) > accessibility, it will be on your saved preset. Change it to another preset, like just hit right on d pad. Then go back to your saved preset, and all options and sliders you changed and saved will apply to this upcoming game.

    Dumb you have to do this every time, but a few button presses is better than having to go in and individually change sliders every single game.

    Thanks. Worked out great. It’s not a terrible amount of trouble to do, but ideally EA patches this amongst quite a few other bugs I’ve come across. EA_Aljo​ this is a functional work around for the BAP settings save issue if you haven’t figured this out already.
