Folks like B-Bunny don't seem to realize that it's possible to disagree on "something to play for"... For me, the "something to play for" is fun, team-oriented hockey. I don't care about unlocks, points, etc. I enjoy *playing the game* (when it's good). If this game were more rewarding of solid team play and less rewarding…

it's funny to me how EA took surveys and also has internal data on how many people play what game modes, prefer what, etc... but people in here insist that they have a better idea of what makes up "the majority"... the majority of people wanted a class based system - it's an objective fact. You can tell yourself all you…

I'm not talking about height/weight, I'm talking about attributes... I guarantee most people couldn't tell their own custom attribute build from one of the "cookie cutters" most of the time. Placebo effect is strong.

I'd love for EA to do a blind test where you all play with a player and aren't told what build it is, and after 5 games with that player you have to guess what build it was. I guarantee almost everyone who is so into "customization" would massively fail that test. They'd have no idea.

if you're more interested in player progression than playing competitive sports with friends, why don't you play Be a Pro? or why don't you individuals who aren't into competitive team sports have your own OTP where if you really want to play online you can play with other people who aren't on set teams? teams, EASHL,…

you can't even make a point without swearing a whole lot... most years I had 1500-2000 games played. I played plenty. I got legend 3. I still think it was stupid.

I do play real hockey. on two teams. and those of us who prefer the class system aren't in the minority - they made the change because the *majority* of people surveyed said they wanted it. competitive sports are about competing. at sports. not unlocking mystical fireball spells.
-
the fact that some people are arguing the game "isn't fun if there's nothing to unlock" suggests to me that you're not interested in playing hockey, you're interested in an RPG. So go play one. EASHL is a competitive sports league, not World of HockeyCraft. If the gameplay was better (and I'd argue that at least '17 is…

I disagree completely. Legend 3 is stupid. If you want customization, fine - I can sort of understand it even if I disagree with it. I prefer the class system. If you want more points to give to your player just because you have more free time on your hands: I disagree vehemently. You should have an advantage over other…

uh, no. I play defense. I want to use the classic camera. Why would I expect features added into a game to work correctly? Really? that's a pretty funny question...

Then you're not familiar with how proper QA test plans are written or executed. It's fine. We'll agree to disagree. You find EA's QA process to be excusable here - many of us don't - some of us with relevant industry experience.

dude, no. I'm sorry, but no. this happens even without the hat addon - it happens with every single entrance item you can get AND even without them (the flag is in the way, just to a somewhat lesser extent). Literally all it took to spot this was playing an EASHL game in any arena besides the very first one, using the…

I was really hoping that either NHL '17 or a patch would fix the fact that slap-dumps (from behind your goal line around the boards, OR from the neutral zone into the offensive zone) didn't result in a whiff/miss something like 85% of the time. It has been an issue for like 5 years now, and it's really disappointing.…

I actually agree, you can still dangle too much -- but it's less than it was in '09, and "always goals" are far less of an issue...
-
I'm so tired of the ridiculous complaints about how they "took the skill out of the game"... Oh, you can't dingle-dangle around a whole team now with your 5'7" dangler? Gee, I'm so sorry. '17 is hardly a masterpiece, but if they go back to having the game be "spend all game defending these 3 spots on the ice where all the…

welp, at least I'm not alone, I guess.... nobody knows of a workaround?
Howdy, Stranger!
