If this game had any sort of competition it would have gone the way of NBA live - either dead or requiring a reboot. I appreciate you guys providing all the constructive criticism that you do and I share the same annual excitement every year around September but don’t really expect much these days. The annual release of…

If there was any competition whatsoever this series would have been given the NBA Live treatment and either been cancelled or faded into $19.99 sell 3 copies a year obscurity. Stop wasting your breath/typing - its a lost cause. This franchise will never be more than something between Fortnite x NHL Hitz at this point.

Ah yes, the old using a top 10 player of all time, one-off example to try to Illustrate a point. You can consistently throw no look backhand tape to tape darts in this game with 75 overall fourth liners. Dan Cloutier once gave up a goal from the red line - why not give us the ability to blast clappers bar down from center…

Shooting: it makes no sense in this game and is absolutely horrendous and unrealistic. In today’s NHL the only way to really beat a goalie clean is with a quick release and not letting him square up. In this game if you try to quickly release the puck from any position you usually get a backhand shovel shot that doesn’t…

There’s also a lot more that can be done with legends. For example: Brind Amour and Lemieux would look much more authentic with the Bauer 4500 helmet since they actually wore that helmet. For Gretzky - one of his iconic staples aside from the signature side jersey tuck was his blue tuuks/skate blade holders. Why has this…

LOL. What’s even more absurd is they are charging real money for cards that are supposed to represent their player likeness and most of them don’t look remotely close to their real life counterparts. It’s one thing to get a random 4th liner wrong, but star players should at least be accurate. It would literally take me an…

Why did EA go through the trouble of adding some new skater helmets and the like and then not bother editing players to actually wear them? I’d say about 20% of the NHL players in this game have the correct gear setup. Most egregious is that THE COVER ATHLETE is in the wrong equipment despite all of his actual gear being…

1. The gameplay loop of manually defend the cross crease 900 times a game while watching many attempts clip through solid objects is not my idea of fun. 2. Every team is exactly the same, there’s no element of creativity with team building and every game is against 66 and 99. OVP is insanely boring yet there’s no middle…

The “game” isn’t that bad. The online sliders however, are terrible. You can get the game to a state that is reasonably balanced and realistic offline. The issue is that it would make the game too hard and force people to play hockey and employ some semblance of hockey IQ which the majority of the player base has no clue…

Awesome work indeed. Unfortunately the Reakt 150 is locked in World of Chel and none of the NHL players have been edited to actually wear it (or the 910 aside from Matthews) so the update is pretty trivial for online modes. The odds I actually unlock the helmet are about 1 in 100,000 amid the sea of emotes and toques.…

The correct equipment is already in the game (Jetspeed FT1 gloves and AS1 skates). It’s pure laziness.

Why is Ovechkin wearing CCM CL500 gloves from 2013 and CCM Tacks skates from 2014 in the gameplay bits of the trailer? Trivial observation - but it tells you all you need to know about this development team’s ability to pay attention to details or level of care when they can’t even get the look of their cover athlete…

Why do I need to open up a case when it’s a systemic issue on the EA Access app that isn’t limited to just me. No one can play the trial anymore via EA access. It’s an EA and PS Store issue, not a user-side issue. Check reddit as well.

Maybe instead of buying the game we should buy the dev team some NHL.TV subscriptions.

Fast forward to 37 seconds - the basic puckhandling in this game is complete garbage compared to how skill players can actually handle the puck irl. Get rid of auto dekes and the LT and give us 1 to 1 motion to do stuff like this:
-
They should nerf the hell out of LT and make the right stick stickhandling faster and more dynamic like old gen to compensate.
-
Hey at least they added 7000 new pieces of clown gear.
-
Fix the absolute joke LT and one hander, bump hitting up a smidge. Game is fine otherwise. Thanks.
Howdy, Stranger!
