NHL 27 Gameplay Changes and Presentation Details

Thanks for this mate. 

I would really like to see balance being something that is implemented in the game to combat the figure skaters. Turn too quickly and you lose balance, control of the puck and you're easier to check. 

Currently by biggest issue with the 26 is shot spamming is far too successful and its a tactic used by most players. Its removed any skill gap and makes the game a button basher that anyone has a chance of winning, no matter what your skill level is.  Its something I hope is different with 27.  

I know it won't happen but removing total control and the pressure system would go a long way to sorting the above.

Good stuff, EA!

Little concerned about the stumbling. It's kinda bad enough now guys run around soaking hits and coming out with the puck constantly.

EA_Aljo​ I have a question: the homepage stated that there will be several score bugs. Is this confirmed, or will there only be one?  because it reads so strangely  

I dont like to criticize and I love this game, always have. 

But to be honest these gameplay stick checking fixes should have been made 10+ years ago, super excited. 

And I see the auto stride deke wont be as effective. Thank god. lmao. 

Hey there. We'll have to wait for more details to be released on this. Thanks!

I hope there will be more gameplay innovations and improvements in NHL 27, for example, that you have much more freedom again, like in NHL 14, as I already posted in the forum in the video. 

Despite the lackluster online franchise in nhl27, what changes are being done on the gameplay/connection side of the future game? 

I have been a consistent player and the trailers are extremely concerning to pull players back for the basic game playing updates.

Thank you for bringing this up. Glad they want to add stuff to the game but wish they would address problems from 26 and previous years first. They definitely need to update their servers, change the RP system in WOC, give us more customization options for our clubs (ex: we should be able to name our goalie and not just be stuck with Wagner and Lehman, also give teams certain boosts for their own clubs goalie and stuff you can unlock for your goalie), pressure system needs to go or be heavily redone, during a game teams should be given a timeout PER period. I can go on and on but you get the point. I’m happy for the new announcers and presentation but that’s just like the bare minimum and it feels just like a little update to what 26 already was. Hopefully you attract more people with connected franchise but focus on fixing the game before adding more stuff and clogging it. That’s how it felt when you added zoo animals as skins. No one asked or wanted that. Looks goofy. You should’ve actually done real player skins. 

Hey. I merged your thread with the already existing one pertaining to gameplay updates. You can see some additional info here.
