I was buying this product as hockey game.
How is possible sell this product with any nhl brand if NO penalties ??? There is completely off. Why???
It is not normal. From 1992 it si a first time you sell this product without any control of this.
Who is owner your company???? Asian? Arabian? Saudakar? UFO?
Is there anybody who care about hockey ???
Nhl25 was similar at the beginning and then they patched it in and the penalties were fine . To release a game that was no cpu penalties in offline modes is like releasing fc26 without fouls. Common ea sort it out. I haven't played 26 since I realised that there wasn't any and went back to 25. Have finished game with no apparent interest in offline players.
Online it's the same thing, open ice charging never called, elbowing penalties are not even in the game anymore, this is to make total control look better than what is
This game is big joke.
Its super annoying when you pass the puck and after 2-3 seconds someone give you a hit (truculence of course) and it takes very long time when you can get up from the ice.
Ive seen 50-60 hits in a game (per team) and 0 penalty minutes. No interference, boarding or checking from behind.
L2 skating is another unbeliveable thing…
Im wondering same thing that why developers created so unrealistic ice hockey game, what is the point of this?
Im guessing that the code of this game is so messed up that they simply dont know how to fix it anymore. If they try to fix something then something else is broken in the next update.
They dont listen customers. They update things that no one has complained about. Matchmaking example and that is still broken.
This is truly painful for all hockey fans who love this sport. Hopefully another gaming company will make a hockey game in the future. This is probably the only way to get EA to listen to its customers.
well if your talking about the AI then yea. the only penalty I see the AI take is cross checking and a tripping that's too far in between. now as for ME, you name the penalty I get it. and yea the time after you get rid of the puck is WAY to long. now I'm guilty of hitting that late but not like the AI. also if you've noticed in REAL hockey, when they are up against the boards and you have players TRYING to get the puck, they are free game for a hit or 'shove'. can't do that here or you'll get an interference penalty
Community ManagerHello, everyone. We're aware of the issue with penalties not being called. It's still being investigated.
Ok Aljo, thx for your info.
How we can take any review of this game serious? I have not see anything about "missing penalties".
By me there is no possible not see this big issue if you play this game.
NHL 26 is not bad game overall. Without penalties this is not hockey game anymore.
I want any message from develop team where is a problem and any term/date resolve this.
