EASHL SLOP

They’ve done it again!! If you read a post I made last year about EASHL, you’d think it was impossible to make a game worse. Leave it to EA Sports. It appears as if you guys spent your entire summer trying to calibrate goalies in a way where they can save the forehanded stride deke, but forgot there was a backhand version. There’s significant improvement when it comes to goalies saving one timers near the face off dots, but take it 50 feet out and it’s going over his shoulder. Stick checking? Useless, unless you get the gift of the game and are able to spam poke to oblivion without taking a penalty. Hitting? Useless, unless you want an interference penalty for hitting a player .5 seconds after they release the puck. Puck control? Not sure how my dangler build with elite edges and maximum puck control continuously loses it when he turns, but that’s just how it works in real life. Finally, I am so happy you guys continue to ruin this game with premade purchasable builds. If you paid the $80 to get the Mario Lemieux build, you are rewarded with perks that normal players are unable to acquire. Cannot wait for the Gretzky build that comes out during the holidays so you guys can cleanup on kids with PlayStation gift cards. Everyone who bought this disgrace of a game deserves their $70 back.

    EA_Aljo​ I don't have a video at the moment, but I can give you screenshots of it happening in 3s, where a (presumably interference) penalty was called that resulted in a penalty shot.

    494.73 on the replay clock is the last time the opponent touched the puck when they passed it.

     

    495.29 on the replay clock is when the hit that was called a penalty shot (3s) was initiated.  That's only 0.56 seconds later.

     

    495.56 If it helps, here is where the hit was "finished" and the player separated from my teammates hit.  This is still only 0.83 seconds from the time they last touched the puck.

    Hey there. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us.

     Useless, unless you want an interference penalty for hitting a player .5 seconds after they release the puck.

    Interesting that you're seeing hits causing interference .5 after they get rid of the puck. This was changed in a recent update to be longer. Can you get me video showing that's still happening?

    These normally happen on a breakaway. Which are usually in the skaters favor. Yes, they're not difficult to score, but is often the result of a defensive breakdown.

    Not sure how my dangler build with elite edges and maximum puck control continuously loses it when he turns, but that’s just how it works in real life.

    It would also be good to see this happening.
