Community ManagerHi there. I still don't have an update on line changes. Hopefully, we'll see this addressed in a future update.
As far as presentation goes, that's something that would have to wait until a future game.
Appreciate the feedback. Thank you!
Hopefully?? It's literally one one of, if not THE most important aspect of the game. It's like someone buying COD but having no reload button, or playing Mario but can't jump. This is unreal.
I decided to give it one more try. Tonight it had a new line change glitch. Even post whistle the correct lines won't come out.
Example my PK1 is Kampf and Pacioretty. For the faceoff the game randomly sends out Kampf and Knies
Next whistle, I put out PK2, Matthews and Knies. The game sends Matthews and Robertson.
This isn't a minor gameplay bug, it's possibly the most important aspect of the game and no one cares. We should get refunds since it's actually broken, literally paid for a game we cannot play. It's not even about the money, that's irrelevant, they should just have the deceny to fix it or take the game back.

I understand this is a big issue. I just don't have any details on when this will be addressed. Obviously, it would be good to see it handled sooner than later.
No, I get it's not you directly of course. Certain things in a game can be overlooked, but now an $80 game just has to sit there unplayable because it doesn't work and they may or may not fix it. They always worked since the dawn of EA hockey, it seems like it'd be an easy fix. I know they are only concerned about microstransactions and the offline players are an afterthought, but that's still a lot of people paying for it to lose.
Thanks for replying though all the same. I'll keep an eye out for an update.

We don't only care about mictrotransactions. There was a huge amount of work that went into Franchise Mode this year. If we only cared about microtransactions, this mode wouldn't even be available. I sincerely hope we'll have this addressed soon. We'll have to wait and see if that's the case or not.
