NHL 16 is garbage EA should be ashamed

   I agree 100%.  Too many of the same glitches.  The poke check is broken.  Players can't be touched at all if you manipulate the garbage dekes/ keep aways.  They don't have duration cards in HUT.  ICE TILT DOES EXIST!  No matter how often they claim it doesn't pay attention to how your passes miss and are directed toward the wrong player; you miss a wide open net; you take more penalties; your ai goes full * in games that are clutch for winning a division title or playoff championship.  This only started happening a few titles ago.  Lag still existed on the previous ones that didn't have ice tilt.  EA Sports calls it momentum.  I call it a scam so you purchase packs to get a better team.

   The game mechanics online are so ridiculous now I refuse to ever just buy the games.  I'll rent first and never play again if I ever have to deal with players looking like they're in squirt house teams as opposed to the NHL caliber they are supposed to be.  The defense for crying out loud takes the shooter, and never the pass!!!!

   Take Be A Pro for example.  The experience system in that mode is the worst I have ever had the displeasure of trying.  The fact that you take bad line defense everytime your ai defense opens up a cross crease shooting lane as a sniper forward is absolutely maddening.

   In HUT you buy a gold rare special pack that consists of ONLY rare players and you get 82 overall rated players is a scam.  I read someone on a previous thread say he spent $500 on hut packs and only had 3 elite caliber players.  One of them was a regular Drew Doughty!  They have training cards to increase your players stats and don't have duration cards so those stat boosts only last 1 game!  These are some of the cards you get while opening a $10 card pack!

   So I have decided to rent the next game.  If I don't like the game mechanics or critical things that destroy my enjoyment of the game,  I'm done with hockey games for the year.
