Patch 1.55 Notes
Patch 1.55 is adding in the highly-requested addition of the ability to have a Wins-Based Competitive Season/HUT Champions leaderboard. Also included in Patch 1.55 is the previously mentioned fix for the Network Performance Screen and some gameplay improvements relating to goalies tracking the puck and players behind the net and improved blends from deking into quick shots.
Please note that while Tuner 1.04 will be bringing in some changes to a player’s speed, acceleration, and agility when backskating with the puck, there were no other changes made to skating.
Read below to find out everything that is in Patch 1.55.
Hockey Ultimate Team
With the addition of Wins-Based leaderboards, we will be able to use them in any HUT Competitive Season mode while still maintaining the functionality of being able to do Points Based events. We wanted to maintain the Points-based competitions functionality as there are certain season structures (i.e. HUT Champions Qualifiers) that make a lot more sense to do in Points-based competitions as opposed to Win-based.
Additionally, we have removed the ability to see your opponent’s team name and information during the loading screen as we received complaints from a lot of players that opponents would back out against them if they recognized their name, making it harder for them to find a game. You will still be able to see the connection bar as you enter the game.

Gameplay
The gameplay changes made will help address some of the key areas we’ve seen complaints about: backskating with the puck, wraparound goals, and “shovel shot”-style goals. These are the only gameplay changes made in Patch 1.55
For Tuner 1.04, you can view the details here.
Patch 1.6 will remove in-game voice chat from HUT Competitive Seasons/HUT Champions games. This fix is coming in to prevent players from being able to see the opponent's Online ID before puck drop. This should help address issues where players were being backed out on before puck drop.
In-game voice chat will only be turned off in HUT Competitive Seasons and HUT Champions games. The rest of the modes will remain unchanged.
Please read below for the full patch 1.6 notes.
