EA are you ever going to fix skill zoning??????
So tired of playing people who just let the ai do everything they can be the worst players ever and the ai keeps them in the game. its just stupid make the games like the pc versions if u didnt try to control the player closest to the puck the guys would fly right by your players and score, i mean you want the game to be friendly for everyone but come on there is no skill involved when the ai are better then most players out there.
Plz fix the skill zoning, this refers to hut and vs

  • The AI literally just skates around. They don't poke, hit, stick lift, block, pin, or anything. It is 100% impossible to skill zone anymore. EA already fixed skill zoning and then some. Not sure what to tell ya

    Just goes to show people will complain no matter what ea does.

    You know that the stick and skate collisions are high, that means skillzoning still works when the ai are chasing the puck carrier.

    That's really not what skill zoning is. If people can't handle moving pylons who just get in their way, skill zoning isn't their real issue

    The AI used to poke (they kinda still do this), stick lift, hold players into boards in the older games but that's gone now. What is OP's solution? To just have ai stand there until you switch to them?

    Well this wasn't really a problem when 19 came out. But the tuners changed that. You can win faceoffs all the time but one slight bump into the skates and the other team gets the puck.

  • Do you happen to have some videos on that?

    The AI will chase you, but your opponent has to take control of them before they'll actually do anything. If they truly "skill zone" and never take control of the AI, you'll be fine. Not sure what you want from EA unless you want unmoving pylons instead of moving pylons 😒
