NHL25 CPU VERY HIGH AGGRESSION (SLIDERS BROKEN?)
When playing NHL25 in all offline game modes, but especially Be a pro, I have noticed a very high level of aggression of the CPU and high body check counts. I have tried adjusting the aggression level for the CPU in the gameplay sliders setting and saw no difference. I put it at 0/100, 1/100, 100/100 for aggression and no visible change. The issue is when your player receives the puck there will be 1-3 opposing CPU skaters rushing you and they will body check you off the puck. You are forced to skate away or pass every time you get the puck. This is not very realistic at all and it is causing the hits per game to be 50-100 which is insanity. If you play out most of your games in Be a Pro, you will find that your entire team climbs the ladder for most hits in the league. Even when my player is on the bench I just see hit after hit after hit, like nobody poke checks or stick lifts or plays zone defense. I have tried tweaking other sliders and the CPU difficulty adjustment as well and saw no change. I have experienced this on the All-Star difficulty, as that is around where my skill level is. I am assuming the aggression is even higher on Superstar as the graphics show that it is so I did not do any testing there; and as Pro difficulty is too easy. Is there anything I can do or anything that I am missing here?
