EA Devs: We have added hundreds of new animations.
Animations and physics are how games are made. Without them it is next to impossible to play a game. For example, can you imagine grand theft auto without animations and physics? You would be better off playing with matchbox cars and Hot Wheels.
Animations make the games what they are, and maybe adding more animations will make the game feel more fluid than it has in the past.
I would give the game a chance before you make a judgement on the amount of animations. The new animations might actually be a good thing.
Little to no interest in the new customizable balaclavas, hats, apparel, or “Battle Royale” mode. Would rather more customization in club, player faces, etc.
Community wanted custom goalie masks? Didn’t get it
Community wanted more faces scanned? Didn’t get it
Community wanted a single player upgrade to Be A Pro and upgrades to Be A GM?
Didn’t get it
Community wanted upgraded graphics?
Didn’t get it
Community wanted better stadium atmosphere?
Didn’t get it
Not everyone cares about these things. You don't speak for the whole community. Some of us care about gameplay. I don't stare at faces, I don't care about atmosphere, I'm not looking at goalie masks, the graphics are great as they are, don't care about GM mode, I'd play Be A Pro if it had a story. My point is they have a wide variety of people in this community to listen to. It's impossible to make everyone happy. Yeah, all that stuff you mentioned would be awesome. Doesn't make a difference to me if it doesn't make it in though. I just want better gameplay. This is a hockey game. I want it to play as best as it can. There was obviously a ton of work on gameplay last year. I'm hoping that continues with 20.
He's not speaking for the community. Just literally mentioning popular wishlist ideas from prior threads.
Just saying you want "better gameplay" means absolutely nothing and is worthless. How about making suggestions on what would make for better gameplay; as you said, there's a wide variety of people in this community, so how are we to guess what you want.
Trust me they already know from the Gamechangers of LG. LeafyTV had a huge poll and information gathered she took the gathering.
There is a reason we don't have custom goalie masks and that is because of abuse unless they made it extremely basic with set colors and emblems.
Faces scanned is something the players have to make time and come in for. FIFA doesn't even do a great job of faces scanned.
Franchise is offline and go an upgrade. There is your offline upgrade.
Updated graphics aren't happening because this is the end of the cycle of for this gen systems. Next-gen systems are coming next year and only God knows what will happen then... hope not NHL 15 next-gen repeat.
Stadium atmosphere would also be in graphics. With a game that can run sluggish and such adding more animations isn't the answer with this gen almost over.
How did real goal songs not get more votes? Do you know how stupid Chicago sounds without Chelsea Dagger? Or Minnesota without Crowd Chant or Arizona without Howling for you? They were just in the game two years ago EA! Stop being cheap!

There's always multiple sides to licensing deals. It's not like EA offers money, they say ok and it's a done deal. There also was a time they wanted the game to be as authentic as possible. That might not be the case now with the new presentation though. Regardless, when it comes to a budget, I imagine licensing for authentic goal songs is a lower priority.

A. Because there are other things that are much more important than anything audio.
B. Some of us would never hear them anyway because our preferred game modes get us stuck in clown gear land.

Hahahahahahaha true, what was I thinking? Of course we are more worried about outside pond hockey than authenticity of the NHL.

I'd rather they fix the glaring gameplay issues before focusing on authenticity.

That is so true 😂
