stop trying to put a band aid on a bullet wound.
just turn off L2. Whatever you did to combat it doesn’t work.
Forum Discussion
Can you please show me a video of where being able to pivot is the only way to play the game or else all hope is lost and you just have to shut it off? You always ask videos from everybody else to prove their point, go ahead and do the same on your end. Myself and plenty of other people are able to play the game without any issues whatsoever without using LT/L2 so please show us how having it in the game, only to get abused 90%+ of the time is absolutely required. Thanks.

Community ManagerDo you play with auto-backskate on? If so, maybe there wouldn't be much of a difference for you. For many of us though, it's crucial that we be able to backskate or just position our player better. Vision Control is an integral mechanic that, if it weren't working, would most likely upset everyone a lot more than the current LT/L2 exploit.
I agree with you that it shouldn't be turned off, we need it. I don't understand why there is an issues addressing it's abuse though, to me it's a simple fix. When LTing with the puck, the skaters balance and strength should be penalized enough to allow a shove to knock them off the puck . Make it a high risk maneuver.
Do not adjust how a player pivots with LT without the puck. I'm going to repeat that because EA has done it in the past. Do not adjust how a player pivots with LT without the puck.
For the most part I think the offensive side of the game, except LT, is fantastic. I think it replicates the real game very well. You have options and I'm happy with that.

If this were the case, it would have been fixed by now.
Fix L2 like that if u use L2 too long player Energy train Faster to end or skate speed drops
I would go crazy playing with auto-back skate on lol so I do not have that on. I have no issue with defensive players using it, it is almost exclusively on offense where it is abused. I don't even know what L2 abuse on defense could be other than hip checkers possibly. L2 introduces more negatives to gameplay than positives considering the intense amount of abuse it sees. At the end of the day if a feature is abused more often than it is used for its main purpose, it means it is implemented poorly and needs to be removed until it is fixed.
