Re: Players stop skating when they have the puck

@larryx46

What seems to be happening is when you have selected the option to control shooting with the right stick the game is picking up a slight “up” press on the right stick which puts the player into shooting stance and you are limited in the movements you can make.

 

The relevant people are aware of this but for now swap the controller layout to use the buttons for shooting rather than the right stick.

    I have this very same issue with one of my controllers but it is intermittent. I may skate for a while then it stops working. My other controller is not having this issue (model no 1537). The controller that has the issue is model no 1697. I remember it started happening after I updated it.

    Proposed solution is ridiculous and as it is not a solution, its a workaround at best. I want to play regular controls.
    Please correct this issue.

    Maybe this is same problem to PS4, because PS4 original controller (coming together for consol) the controller must press hard enough to operate properly reactions and it will remain ever after.

    My solution to the problem was to buy to the second controller. I need to buy 1 - 2 controller per year, this is normal for me because i play very much and all controlers is not as long lasting...

    This final video, just looks same what happened me, because i use checking buttons (hybrid controls) and need to press checking button again and player gets the puck. Player checking buttons is sometimes "on" and you need to press button when it is "off". This bug is since 2016 NHL game. And no matter if you checking for R3 button, checking is sometimes "on-off", and player not take puck if this is "on".

    @EA_Barry So it sounds like EA released anther bugged game and as long as they got their money out of it, they couldn't care less about their customers.
