Re: Getting Stuck on Wall Behind Net

Just to be clear, have you seen this happen in all modes or specific ones?

@TTZ_Dipsy, in the first video, it looks like the AI runs into the net. It looks a bit awkward, but it could have been avoided if they had skated around the net. If you can get a video showing this better, let me know. I have seen players get hung up on the net, but that's when they actually skate into it. Which is kind of to be expected, but it also shouldn't be an issue where a limb is getting stuck in the net.

What exactly is the issue in the second video? It looks like a defender is trying to pick up the puck with his skate, but kicks it into the goalie. It's definitely not ideal. Is that what you're trying to highlight in this video?

I think* I've seen it happen in 3's Eliminator but I can't be certain (EDIT: net/boards warping confirmed in 3's eliminator (solo) and ONES). The videos I posted were from EASHL 6's (I've seen it in EASHL 3's as well but there is so much room to move I usually never need to be near the net).

@EA_Aljo 

First video, first clip - If you slow it down a bit you can see my player get warped ever so slightly into the net; this is the "bubble" I was referring to. It seems the collision physics are not exactly 1:1, and the hit box is more akin to earlier, more box shaped models. I could have moved my character better, yes, but my placement was good enough not to hit the net in my opinion.

First video second clip - It was as if I slipped; definitely wasn't intended in any case.

Second video - I admit I could have cut the video a little better. So, the focus should be of my character in white right behind the net. You'll notice I get stuck in place for a moment; while not extremely detrimental in that situation, it's still something that needs to be addressed

I play Be a Pro and it happens there as well so it definitely happens in several game modes. It’s been difficult to get it on video since I don’t record when I play and the issue resolves itself after a couple of seconds (so I don’t have time to grab my phone and start recording) but it’s like hitting an invisible wall when trying to skate behind the net. Happens both with and without the puck.

@TTZ_Dipsy Thanks for pointing out that wasn't an AI player in the first video. The yellow was tough to see. Sorry about that. Anyway, there is no bubble around the net. It has to do with how physics are handled with a complex, fixed object and how the velocity of the player is updated when colliding with it. This is something the NHL dev team is looking to improve. This also used to happen against the boards when your player would sort of bounce off them. That was improved a lot so you don't see it now. Nets are more complex though.

No worries, @rebbieh1. I think the videos that were posted detail it pretty well. It's something I've had happen to myself. Not super common just due to how I play, but it's still an issue. I gave a more detailed description in a previous post of why this occurs. The plan is to improve it over time.
