So whats the point of even having defenders in the game if the ai, as you just admitted is so bad that they need a human player to play for them?
They don’t have to be 100% but they should be able to play their position as ai players. Instead they get caught flat footed 9 time out of 10, jump up randomly when theres no need to, rarely hit, don’t poke check, and never pressure the puck carrier.
I get that getting goals is fun, but having bs goals go in because an ai defender isnt coded to play their position properly is crazy.
Might as well only put human controlled players on the ice. If that means a 5 on 3 or something then so be it - that’s basically what it is already playing with ai players.

I really don't have a huge issue with having a human D partner. Yes, I need to play more conservative, but they still help. I'd much rather have one than not. It also helps when your team stays in position. A lot of human players are constantly out of position. That's going to affect where the AI players are. They won't always be in the best position to defend in those cases.
