    Hi there, @ckon16.

    Are you saying your opponent is just passing and shooting, but they aren't moving? Can you get some video of this? Does it happen in any other modes?

  • This has been going on for months. Now more frequently then before. 70 pct of the time when playing between 9am and noon.  Usually just an non playing opponent. The other times its a guy that just presses the

     pass button every 2or 3 seconds. Its like its programmed some how? Why would someone stay an entire game if they can't play or move a player, and sometimes press the pass button indiscriminately like a timed pulse?. Its ruined NHL 21 I  plan to not bother with it anymore. I like online versus but its not as good as hut and hut just wastes too much of time now with ghost opponents that won't quit.   When you reply can you give me a link for suggestions for next NHL game. Thanks Tim Mankin   ps does Greg Lutzer still work there?

  • Part 2   I

     Every time I have reported someone for anything it was a flag for you guys to seesomething going on here with the ghost opponent proble . If you look up the act every time I reported someone it was for this problem. The option was always for abusive content but you don't have an option for game problems. 1030 am pst today just happened again and reported. Hope this helps you figure it out.  Tim Mankin

    @flyersrule 

    Thanks for the feedback on this. I'll make sure it gets to the right people.

  • Is there any word on this problem yet? Hut is still unplayable and trying a game just means I will need to quit hurting my division stats orbit through a whole game playing nobody. I swear its a way to collect coins all day by having people quit and give up the win rewards and points. It doesn't make sense if someone can't move a player or skate to just sit through a whole game not moving. Coinsellers? Said b4 one guy just sporadically presses the pass button(to appear real?) Its as if once  he has puck within 3 seconds it just passes causing icing all the time.15 icings a game? Something weird here. You never gave me a link for new NHL suggestions. Does Greg Lutzer still at EA Burnaby. Thanks for your time.   Tim Mankin

    @flyersrule 

    We don't have any new details on this issue. I also can't give out any information on our employees.

  • @EA_Aljo Just so you are aware, this issue and the guy doing it has also been reported under( hut connecting to the same bot) title. The guy doing it has been jpg'ed to you by others experiencing it and reporting it. Hoping his account just gets shut down.
