EA, please add REAL team practices to Be A Pro.
This, in my opinion, is one of the biggest things missing from Be A Pro.
I want to actually go to practice with my team and control my player — not another menu-based training system.
Imagine being able to:
- Practice with your line
- Run team systems
- Shooting/passing/skating drills
- Power play & penalty kill
- Position-specific drills
- Scrimmages
And have your practice performance affect coach feedback, ice time, development, energy, and your role on the team.
Games like NBA 2K have already incorporated playable team practices into MyCAREER, and features like this help make the mode feel like you’re actually living the life of a professional athlete. NHL’s Be A Pro could benefit massively from the same concept.
For years, BAP has basically just been game → menus → next game. Actual practices would make it feel like you’re actually living the life of an NHL player. It doesn’t have to be perfect on day one — just give us the ability to actually step onto the ice for practice.
EA, please consider this for a future BAP update or the next NHL title.
If you’d want this too, upvote/comment so EA knows there’s demand. 🏒
