Like Follisimo said, I'd like to see the animations differ a bit more for each build. You rarely see a Butterfly goalies make Butterfly saves. Stand up goalie look exactly like a Hybrid and Butterfly when making saves. So all we are doing is picking which stats we want with these builds and not a style. So I'd like to see…

EA_Roger, I'm not a HUT guy so I'm not sure what you mean. I was thinking more like a class section for EASHL builds which we could visit to post bugs and feedback on the character builds we have. Or, a general offensive, defensive and goalie discussion for general purpose threads about the position. I'm ok with not…

Wouldn't mind seeing a Class sub forum. Kinda how MMORPGs do it. Power Forwards discussion Sniper Discussion Defensive Defenseman discussion. Hybrid Goalie discussion. Or just have. Offense, Defense and Goalie discussion. Tired of searching through unwanted threads. Atleast this way all threads are something I'm interested…

A big reason why we are back to 100% on scoring chances is Cross grain shots. This community decided that Cross grain shots weren't worth the extra movement on one timers or quick passes back door. Like Jonlolo hinted at. we as a community need to take responsibility for some of the things this game lacks. Tuning our…

First, I wasn't using my average stats as proof. I was answering your **** "league play" answer as to why using T push wouldn't be effective in league. I stated Venom, it was LG and VG not just LG, I personally got lucky and was asked to play LG because of my VG exp ( 4 seasons now. Stats don't mean anything specially when…

Don't think you'll ever play like quick since you don't use all the movements to put yourself in position to make half his saves Venom.

i use High camera with default controls. I think it's a sweet tool and you guys should atleast know about it. Through one of Johnlolo's videoes. Since they are so highly view.
-
I don't want to change your guys style at all. I'm just saying that t push from a post position is something you should be looking at. It allows you to do much easier saves from the point.

I've started a few threads about Forechecking guides and Defensive zone guides for this reason. All you would have to do is get on your mic and ask if they are using their guides or going all Rambo? Then, you'll know before hand if it's a throw away game or a let's get it on! game.

Venom, Jonlolo and I were talking about T pushes from a post hold position. Since the first tuner in 17 normal t pushing around stop being successful at anything other than getting back into position or on the low % huge rebound. From a post hold position I've found that t pushing, specially from a reverse VH position is…

Venom said this to me after a stream. That I make a lot of reaction saves. I was like yeah... then they tuned the goalies for the first time. I wasn't playing as a back liner but was using the strengths of reactionary saves in an aggressive manner. More aggressive manner than you in your videos. So after that comment I…

Going from 17 to 18 beta this week was aweful on PS. I swear,, all the crappy players who quit 17 all signed up for 18 beta. First 3 games I played goalie, I saw all 6 defense try to shark/blue line hit every play. Probably the most fun I had this year getting my **** kicked though. Days like those I want to feel for EA.…

Jonlolo, Have you spent time playing with the T push coming off a post hold yet? With how post holds work now with only pressing L1 you can now load up a L2 t push. I've found it works awesome for gaining depth quickly from low to high passes and for sliding to the top of your crease for slot shots. Just something I e…

I blasted the DSS thinking it wasn't going to be a good toolset. ( just from EA capabilities of screwing over defense) However, after testing it out for a few games and playing goalie afterwards. You can tell when your defense isn't using it. Huge upgrade!
-
I hated the changes they made to the goalie throughout '17. I felt like the cross grain shot was easily a better trade off than freezing on one timers. Since they don't listen to me they went with what we have on '17 and now 18. That being said, even in drop ins I can have faith in the backside defenseman using DSS for…

Kicked out of a game because I was on the bench during a delayed penalty for " Careless Wandering "
-
Feel like you're putting to much stock into the hype. Youre going to tell me in 18 defense can stay with forwards? Keep their sticks in the shooting lane or passing lane? String together poke checks and pass blocks/shot blocks? Sorry I don't believe they will fix the speed at which people try and play this game. Sure,…

To get better Teamplay you need to pass the puck out more when little to no traffic is infront of the net to keep play moving and not take a defensive zone face off. This really is only accomplished when saving long shots with your glove in a stand up position. If you're in the Butterfly position it's a very slow…

precision doesn't need a boost in speed. T push needs a complete overhaul. Right now it's slow and clunky and rarely gets you across the crease for shots. Precision is to follow the puck carrier around your crease not for reposition on passes. If you can't follow the skater as of now, your not doing it right. When I'm…

When referring hockey the goalie never counts as a skater. So saying 3v3 means 3 skaters vs 3 skaters and 2 goalies are implied unless otherwise. So when everyone says 6s they mean there are 6 people on a team controlling a player. So you'd say 5v5 in reality. It gets confusing a bit but 3v3 will be 4-8 players online.…
