Stil no fix for BAP after patch

Still unable to view transactions, injuries, AHL statistics, or retired players.
Unable to negotiate contract

Those seem like things that need to be added in from the beginning, ie, not a patch. I agree with you in that I’d like to see those things as well, however.

At least they are trying, this is from the patch notes.

• Adjusted form score challenge requirements for 3rd/4th line and scratch rotation challenges to better match difficulty expectations.
• Fixed an issue where users could interact with health activities while injured.
• Resolved an issue where background visuals displayed incorrectly if the user simulated, intervened, and then quit out of a match in Be a Pro.
• Timeline widget now correctly displays three games instead of eight when goalie in preseason.
• Added missing logic ensuring U18 players are required to wear cages during U20 Championship matches.
• Addressed an issue preventing BAP Goalies from being sent back down to the AHL after being called up.
• Fixed issue that showed the user passed the “Become Starting Goalie” challenge in the summary screen without meeting required form score.
• Adjusted logic so Form Score Last Game is correctly used instead of Season Average after losing the World Junior gold medal game challenge.
• Fixed impacts in “On Track to Make the Playoffs” media side quest responses.
• Corrected several endorsement conversations decline responses that incorrectly referenced the cover athlete endorsement.
• Fixed incorrect brand, management, and team likability icons displayed in the Activities widget in Be a Pro Hub.
• Fixed Anaheim Ducks’ home arena incorrectly displaying Memorial Cup center ice logo during gameplay in Be a Pro mode.
• Fixed an issue where some conversations with challenges to move up the lineup or get promoted to the NHL may not trigger in year 2+ throughout the season.
• Fixed an issue where the some of the secondary objectives shown in the challenge did not line up to the statistic that was being tracked in the Move up to the 4th line challenges.

Have we ever had that in any of the NHL games?

I was pissed there wasn't a playable Allstar game.

well yesterday when playing with my 2way forward, I had to maintain an 80 form score. after the patch that I just downloaded, it changed to maintain a 65 form score. so they did change it. I'm about ready to play a game and see what else they, hopefully, changed. I'm going to try and NOT get a point and see how bad the form score tanks.

did they take out the nhl route for be a pro i thought they added that in a patch but its not there nemore in my game which is weird cause it was there before

not sure what you mean about the NHL route? but I will say that the game I just played was better. got 1 assist and was +3 with 13 hits and my form score went up 3 points instead of down. so far the biggest gripe I STILL got is we won 8-4 and ALL 4 GOALS WERE SCORED WHEN MY PLAYER WAS ON THE ICE. that pees me off more than anything. if I didn't want to see what the form score would be, I'd restarted it. my defense was only like 57% because of all the goals scored and getting "bad line defense". the 3rd goal was like -8%, geez I was in position and hit the guy but it was tipped in and I still got it. I hate that more and more. I don't understand why they don't score during simulation more. out of probably 20 goals, at least 16 were scored when I was on the ice. and I'd say 10-12 were the AI's fault.

I was only able to squeeze in a couple of games in between work shifts post- patch. I can confirm that the chapter target for getting off the scratch rotation (I’ve been struggling) dropped from 60 or 65 (I can’t remember) down to 35. Not only that, but the gameplay and form score requirements seemed  a bit more “fair.” I got two goals and a helper in one game so I obviously got 100. In the next game, I failed to get on the scoresheet but had a solid game. I still had a form score that exceeded the target. Getting back on a regular shift won’t be a problem, based on the trend, and I’m guessing getting past the fourth line will be similar.

All in all, it was a better experience.

Been ranted this since last revamp 5 years ago. It’s clear that game developers doesn’t care what we want, it’s all about online modes.

It was on be a pro in Xbox 360 era, it was way more authentic back then.
