NHL 22 are there any Cpu vs Cpu fights…!
In NHL21 there were none. I boosted fight ratings up’d penalties ..but CPU vs CPU would not produce a fight. Can anyone tell me if NHL 22 is different?

Community Manager@tuckermaine1 They should fight in CPU vs. CPU games. How many games have you watched?
Well, only about 5 games in and still have not seen any Cpu vs Cpu fights
Been using the “Play Now mode so I’m not sure about a Franchise mode or Season mode
If there are Cpu Cpu fights it will be the first time EA has allowed it because past version 21-20 did not have em
Reading threads on OS and people are saying that it takes a HUMAN or User to initiate a fight, CPUs can’t do this on its own.
we will see…
I only play CHEL and Be A Pro, but I can assure you in older games ( 19-20-21) Be A Pro the AI does indeed fight. In one instance in NHL 20 I had a full line brawl going, 3 v 3.And in NHL 21 Be A Pro I was watching my line mate fight and suddenly the AI came up and challenged me, and bam we had two going at once. I can attest that the AI does indeed fight in Be A Pro. It will only initiate fights post whistle, and or respond to hits and the enforcer engine however. The AI will not cross check or issue face-off fight challenges, it will however as mentioned above respond to enforcer engine challenges from hits and during post-whistle scrums like mentioned above. It's rare, and you need to have the right players on the ice for it to happen. But if you can get multiple goons/enforcers or tough " often " fighter players out at the same time , it's possible for CPU fights whether it be one fight or even multiple. Have not found out about if this is the case in NHL22 however, I'll let you know.
Thanks man, appreciate it. I don’t play any other mode except Season Cpu vs Cpu (Roster creator and realism freak) however that is wild about your Be A Pro fights…I’m hoping as you said with enough “Often” ability on Fighting or “Enforcer” rating that the Cpu will go here and there though I’m not optimistic…shame
But if you see any fights Cpu vs Cpu shout out, I have a small sample so none as of yet but still hoping.
Dont know why Ea has seemingly removed this…it’s realism ..but that’s EA
I do a lot of CPU vs CPU in Franchise Mode, and NHL21 definitely had fights, usually after a big hit.
I have watched a lot of games but yet everytime the Goalie stops the puck they just grab each other for like 2 seconds and let go and the game continues only after a big hit have I seen them fight
