Be A Pro:
- Add back ability to choose your player's starting age and play full junior seasons or full seasons in europe (not only champions league)
- Keep the current quicker way to start the career as one off the career starting options
- Possibility to go undrafted if you play that badly
- Add back playing in the AHL
- Put being demoted to CHL/AHL back in
- Negotiating your contract's salary and duration
- Fix: conversations and challenges have the answers in wrong boxes in some occasions still
- Add the salary cap back: in NHL21 the there doesn't seem to be one in BAP and it becomes really unrealistic
- Fix the issue: starting in CHL or Europe currently burns a contract year from all the players
- Fix the AI GMs so they would actually sign their FAs and at least RFAs more often than not, and to not make unnecessary roster turnovers
- Add a possibility to decline becoming a captain off the team (i don't want to take the C from Toews or McDavid) and possibility to just get the A instead of C.
- Add back the weekly training reminder, but with the ability to enble/disable it at any time
- Further develop the likeability meters: they are maxed out too quickly and easily
-Give info about BAP players injury and it's duration, also it should be possible to get injured in the first season
-Trade and FA signing tracker (there was one in NHL20, readd something similar please)
-Fix the Razor's edge screen inside the match: It shows my Goals scored for the other player too, instead of the correct amount.
-Ability to disable Cybulski announcing the game results: him announcing the results at every turn gets quite annoying by the 2nd season (but you want to hear them talking about your player sometimes so just muting them from audio settings isn't a proper option)
- Being able to veto the trades as some of them are completely unrealistic. (it's your own save so having more control won't hurt anyone)
- Idea: there is no "reward" for getting drafted early in the draft and your overall is really low to start in the NHL, how about the following:
Drafted in top10: +5 to all attributes
Drafted later in 1st round: +3 to attributes
2nd round: +2
3rd round: +1
I wanted to add a couple things that I noticed while playing NHL 14 again recently.
When a home team player was injured in a game from a hit, whoever hit him got booed every time they touched the puck.
Also in a playoff series in season mode this would continue as the series went on that player would get booed in road arenas.
Also guys would comeback from injury with a face mask on for protection.
Another thing was when the Home team was hemmed into their own zone for over a minute the home crowd would start booing in displeasure.
Personally I hope we can create players without helmets again.. here's hoping we get a patch for NHL 21.
Franchise Mode:
- Show player ratings and potential in Draft. You can see it in their CHL rosters, why can't it display in Draft? I turn off Fog of War, but that feature has always seem to apply to the Draft, so I always just Auto Draft.
- Allow more user control in Player Edit. I auto-draft and wind up with an Elite Grinder (what even is that?), and before could at least change them to a 2-Way or Power Forward (or anything really), but on NHL 21 the Player Type is unchangeable. We want more control, not less.
- Player Edit, ability to change face and hair. Tyson Foerester does not have Sideshow Bob hair and looks ridiculous in championship celebrations.
- Player Edit, ability to change Role. I should decide if an 85-rated player is 2nd line, not 4th line. And yes, I can manually move them, but over 82 games, that gets annoying. It would be nice to set and save default lines, in place of Best Lines options that really isn't 'best.'
- Player Edit, ability to change Position, like we can in Rosters (basically all functionality we have in Rosters: Edit Players should be available in mid-Franchise play)
- Player Edit, faces. Been made fun of for years, but how does Ivan Provorov have a generic face when Andy Andreoff in spot-on? Travis Konecny was an All-Star and has the same generic face as Scott Laughton, but Connor Bunnaman is an exact match? Take some time, get the veterans with 'hundreds of games in the league' updated.
- Career Stat totals in AHL. Love that it was (finally) added for NHL players, would love to see career AHL'ers numbers. It's tracked, and displayed in game when they hit a milestone, so the data is there.
- Please finally get the Flyers Captain & Alternate font right. You have it on their Retro Reverse and on the Phantoms, but their Home & Road font is wrong, has been for years. And it should be black on the home whites, not white on white and almost invisible.
