Threes Eliminator
Ok, where do I start. First off let me just say that I've played as many eliminator games as anyone in the world from NHL 19 to now. Thousands of them. My club finished ranked #1 in 20 and me and my teammate were 1 and 2 in the rankings. I know the discussion of a tilt has come up before and has always been denied but I need to vent here. Its 100% obvious that the higher ranking and level you get the better the mascot or cpu opponents get. We started 21 and were extremely happy with the gameplay. Was fast, crisp and very enjoyable. As we leveled up that slowly started to change.
My level now is elite2 with 30000 rp. My teammates are elite3. It has become impossible to cover the mascot. He has become the best player by far on the ice. Hes the fastest skater, hardest hitter and scores on nearly every shot it takes. You can't hit it or send a pass anywhere near it or its picked off. The game is completely different when a cpu is involved. It has become frustrating and not enjoyable to play. I don't mind some good competition but when a cpu becomes the best player in an online game, thats just pathetic.
Another issue recently is when there is a money puck all our opponents have to do is send a wrister or slapshot from center ice and its going in 90% of the time. Its really laughable how many times this happens. Wasnt like this on launch before we leveled up.
Question about the rankings system. How does it make any sense that you can have one club go 60-2 for the night, have the same finals wins as a team that goes 60-30 and the team with 30 losses is ranked higher. You are rewarding the teams that lose more. Why is this?
And lastly, we are getting booted from games and the server at a very high rate. We will win 2 games of a tournament and all 3 players get booted back to the menu screen many times a night. Sometimes it says that your teammates moved on without you, which is never the actual case. Sometimes it says you lost connection to the servers, even with a perfect internet connection and sometimes it just sends you to the lobby with no error message.
Please look into these issues. You have some very loyal players who have loved this game mode for years that are ready to quit this game all together. We are all top players who want nothing more than to make this game better. Please help us help you!
