Something Needs to Be Done

I'm sorry but if you're a west coast player playing a top club that is east coast and you're a dman, don't even touch the poke check button.

Just use positioning and hope they lose the puck in your skates.

I'm going to say this and take it for what you will, but the Defence in this game does NOT have an upper hand, it's very very difficult.

We can't attack, we have to contain and react, and hope.

Some too club forwards in this game know how to abuse the advantages they have over us to death, and when it's clear you're on the east coast server, you're at the mercy of the opposing team.

It's rough man. This game desperately needs to rebalance things. Desperately.

  • I was talking to a dev who was trying to explain poke, DSS, etc. He did it so perfectly as if his explanation was cut and dry, but I countered with the game's lag and why things happen the way they do. It's the skate into DSS thread. Don't think I got anything back.

    is it just me? Did EA give me a buggy tuner update? My AI play like crap. Overall 91 club in HUT and i cant seem to generate anything with the clunky bots...i change my stratagies regularly and all i notce is my AI doing everything wrong. Dont go for loose pucks. Dont rotate on defense. Dont cut to open ice to create passing lanes. Barely do any defense what so ever. They look like theyre trying to hold hands or kiss their checker on the cheek. Thats not defense. Absolutely clunky clueless pylons. No concept. No instincts. No anticipation. Just clunky terribleness. High overall or not they just seem clueless.

    Any pointers or should I just uninstall this **** arcade sim.

    I install and don't buy 20. They aren't going to fix anything and with 20 they will probably give us a good beta again to rope people into buying it. Then just tune the game to garbage again

    The new tuners great, isn't it? You get to do puck battle with your skates. Don't think about poking or any type of stick check. Just skate into each other and flip a coin.
