Be A Pro is unplayable with multiple large issues
The developer team was on the right track with the changes made this year to the game mode but ultimately fell short in the execution. In this thread I will go over the issues I have noticed with many hours of play time as a multiple year experienced player. 1. The health feature. After each game your player gets fatigued or exhausted and you to spend 2-4 energy points to recover. That would not be an issue if we received more energy points. On average you play 3-4 games per week and you only get 6 energy points. Quite often you will find yourself running out of energy points before your last game of the week, forcing you to play super fatigued. This is very frustrating as you always fall behind the 8ball and it drops your speed, acceleration, endurance, agility and durability by 10-20 attribute ratings. During the season you never have any energy to spend on trait points, X-factor points, or the likability options. A good comparison of a health system that works is in EA's College Football games. In those games you don't have to spend all your points on health as you only play 1 game per week. They pretty much copied the same feature in NHL26, except it's the same amount of energy points but with way more games per week. It just does not add up... 2. Form score. The form score seems to only go by point productions from your player. It possibly may be ever so slightly tied to the coach feedback score, too hard to tell. Your player can play extremely well and get an " A " grade for the coach feedback, but since you did not score a goal or an assist, your form score will be only 20/100. If you are on a line with grinders (like an NHL 4th line), or just don't "finish" the play, you get penalized. The game requires you to have a high form score to make the NHL team, or move up the lineups. This also is a big problem for Defenseman or a 2-Way forward who doesn't prioritize a purely offensive game. 3. Gameplay sliders. The sliders that are set in settings get reset every time you play a game. Even if you set the sliders in settings before you start your Be A Pro, it will not work. Each game they have to be edited. 4. Draft stock media interview. The media interview right before draft day is absurd. It is not realistic at all to be able to drop 20 spots in the draft from answering questions that seem like a good response. A simple fix would be making the worst answer -1 draft stock, the best answer +1, and the 2nd best/worst being 0 change. Also, make it more apparent what your goal is (to answer questions closest to your higher likeability- being management, teammates, and brand). 5. Chapter challenges/lineup challenges. Unless your player goes on an offense masterclass in the pre-season, you will not make the NHL team. This goes back to #2, where I spoke about form score. It is not realistic to require such a high production to make the team. Second which, once sent down to the AHL, you have 8 games to maintain a 65 or higher line score. If you make the NHL team, you are stuck on the 4th line where you play only a few shifts per game (even on 20 minute periods). You do not have enough ice time to produce at the rate required to make the 3rd line. It's at the point where you need a higher points per 60 minute stat than the top players in the league to progress. As a defense player, this makes it absolutely impossible to move forward. The coach grade feedback also needs to be adjusted per ice time. You can have all your 4 shifts where you play well and go from the C- starting point, to a C+, which is never high enough to grow. If the developers can make the correct tweaks, this game mode has such good potential. I recommend either adding more energy points per week, or reduce the fatigue you gain per game you play. At the least, have a setting to turn off the health feature like in other EA sports games like CFB25/26. There also needs to be adjustment on the form score. It needs to be more related to your coach feedback and your player role/position. They needs to be tweaks for both of those metrics for the ice time you are allocated. Those simple fixes will make a massive difference in this game mode. I have not seen any player, YouTube, or Streamer happy with how this game mode plays and I have not heard any response from the EA team on this topic. Please give us hope for this game!Why
Okay in all my years of playing Be a Pro do the glitches happen when I am doing something phenomenal. Like scoring 5/6 goals maybe getting 2/3 assists. Or like being down 4-0 and coming back in the 3rd period. Then the just closes do to some glich and tell me to report it. I reboot and that glorious game is lost. It is very frustrating.
How to learn to play better NHL 25?
Howdy, my fellow NHL 25 players. I probably just am too old and too slow to be good in this game. 😁 What other than just play as much as I can could I do to get better? Any tips? Currently I get slammed by checks or at least separated from the puck in the same millisecond I have it. Not gonna lie, but in BAP on Semi-Pro level I seldomly have the time to even pass the puck. What do you folks do first when you get the puck? What is the key to not getting hammered and disconnected from the puck in a blink of an eye? Appreciate any tips. But I am aware, that it just might not be my destiny to be good at this. 😎 See you on the glacier anytime and take care.NHL 26 Be A Pro Mode Feedback
Wanna start off by saying some of the new additions since NHL 25 have been great. I have some negligible gripes with the VA work, but muting works great. However, some things have stuck out to me as either "immersion breaking" or "confusions not necessarily tied to user issue." I'll detail what I can. Story & Progression Path Story-wise, having put a few months into it, I can say I do like some of the depth options available early on in the game. However, it seems to be missing an ability to go undrafted if you truly wanted to work from the bottom up in that way, which I found disappointing. The path from World Juniors → chosen championship → NHL is a nice addition to the overall setup of your player's story, but it felt lacking. The "late addition" of your player could've been influenced or discarded by playing a few games up to the World Juniors break. However, this is still far inferior to previous years being able to play at least a season with your junior team prior to the NHL. That would allow you to personalize your player's growth in the direction you want. If you opt to simulate between the Chosen Championship and the draft/NHL season, there is no minimum expected growth. This instead incentivizes you to advance day-by-day to gain and spend the energy (which can result in missing out on 10+ trait points and multiple X-factor points). Simming that gap could at least yield 2-3 points each and a little boost to brand likeability. Learning the Game & Coaching Feedback There should be some optional way for the player to learn how the team's system/strategy operates. The game having the ability to practice different scenarios (breakout/rush/OZone) could actually help them learn how to play their position aside from reading positive/negative feedback checklists from the bench and looking for positional aids or player coverage indicators. Coaching feedback/grading does not always line up logically and sometimes it's laughably off-base. For example, if you're playing LD and they blow by your partner on the outside right boards while you're covering your check for a passing lane, you get marked for the odd-man rush and bad line defense if they score as though that's no longer your partners assignment, but the game dings you for missing your assignment. If you block several shots on a play leading to the opposition scoring, you also shouldn't get marked for "bad line defense." I'll accept and actually praise the game for realistically wiping my energy to 0 for blocking a shot with my face, but them scoring after should not negatively reflect on me for making consistent effort. I should have teammates offering me ice cream after the game if anything. Challenges, Dialogue & Playstyle Challenges have generally poor functionality. My agent gave me a 3-assist challenge in 1 game, so I saved prior to and replayed that game 30 times with 3-5 assists and never once did it work, so taking the "brand hit" on that felt discouraging. Dialogue options often don't line up with intended results. If you want an easy and quick example, start a Be A Pro and compare the responses for role selection of Defensive and 2-Way Defensemen — they're flipped. Playstyle of player is not very relevant to how a coach grades your performance. You're still expected to put up offensive metrics in order to maintain solid performance. I think at most, it might change requirements for challenges? Lastly for dialogue, let the player exhibit some character, let them give some pushback, If I get healthy scratched while on a point streak, I should be able to tell the coach it was a dumb move. Or holdout on the team that drafted you if you wanted an random draft but didnt like the team. ELC negotiation/calder win/finalist bonus negotiation. Some "star" type responses from previous games already showed some capacity for being allowed to be a bit of a **bleep**, so this doesnt seem too far of a stretch. Setup, Rosters & Simulation Realism The initial "setup settings" for Be A Pro prior to starting the career should have roster options. Current or default roster options would be a nice starting point, but it would be cool if roster updates also added scripted trades for Be A Pro when players move throughout the year. For example, if you were a Wild or Canuck in December, you'd see the switch to/from Quinn Hughes from/to Marco Rossi/Zeev Buium/Liam Ohgren respectively. If any of the modes should have an ability to tout "Full Hockey Simulator" as its sale point, it should be Be A Pro. But even with the same slider presets across multiple games AI will still randomly pop in 8 goals in the first period or 5 in between your shifts 2 mins apart (maybe add a franchise-like shot/goal frequency simulation setting?). Let me play some dump n chase without losing XP for the goalie grabbing it behind the net. Instead, it feels like the only playstyle the game tries to reward is "The Next Gretzky" where points/goals/assists are all that matter. It should focus on rewarding smart/well-played hockey. An A+ performance from a Defensive Defenseman or Enforcer looks dramatically different from 1st/2nd line franchise tier forwards, and getting dropped down the lineup for not producing to the same level is absurd.PLS EA READ THIS BECAUSE THIS CAN HELP NHL 27 GAIN WAY MORE PLAYERS!
Dear EA Sports NHL Development Team, The community is calling for a massive overhaul of the Be A Pro mode. To make NHL 27 the most immersive hockey sim ever, we demand the following features: The Journey Starts at 15: Let us start our careers as 15-year-old prospects. We want to play multiple full seasons in leagues like the Finnish Liiga, SHL, or CHL before the NHL Draft. Dynamic Growth System: As we start young, our players should physically grow in height and weight during the teenage years, affecting our playstyle and physics. Interactive Intermissions & Locker Rooms: No more skipping to the next period. We want full-length, interactive intermissions with locker room speeches, injury management with trainers, and the ability to drive the Zamboni. On-Ice Communication: Implement a system to talk to teammates, trash-talk opponents to throw them off their game, and argue with referees about penalties. Authentic Pre-Game Experience: Show us the line-ups, goalie matchups, and let us participate in full pre-game warm-ups to get a feel for the puck. In-Depth Practice Mode: Training should be mandatory. Morning skates and team practices should directly affect our line chemistry and our standing with the coach. National League Authenticity: Bring back authentic Liiga goal songs and local arena atmospheres to make the European path feel real. New Game Roles: Introduce a 'Be A Referee' mode where we can climb the ranks from junior leagues to the Stanley Cup Finals. Game-Winning Drama: If we score a last-second goal, we want epic celebrations where the entire bench clears, combined with a 'Coach’s Challenge' system and video reviews to keep the tension high. It’s time to bring the 'Pro' back into Be A Pro. The community is ready for a change. I also want to add these crucial features to the list: Full international career (Olympics, World Cup, and IIHF World Championships), and the ability to start as a 15-year-old so you can play in these tournaments throughout your career. What do you guys think? Is starting at 15 a must have for you too? EA if you could do this THANK YOU EA!Another why?
Why does a a NPC like( yes i know they are supposed to be NHL players) Jonathan Huberdeau get 244 hits when I barely get any hits nowadays as a Power Forward like 144. Plus I see NPC’s shy away from my PC as soon as a make a motion to hit. It seems to have taken any anticipation out of the game for a guy that has played the game of hockey in his life out of the actually being good at a video game based on the game he played. I seem to have to hold the hit button longer to make a hit nowadays. Why?
really High scores and high GAA and low save percentages in be a pro goalie mode
I know I had been away, but lately scores are really high and 11 GAA and terrible save percentages in goalie mode be a pro offline, when AI CPU wants to score they score, I have seen default scores now is 5-3 or 3-3 or 4-3 and 12-7 and 8-6 and 8-5, everything is good, but game play of CPU vs CPU is bad and what happened to pass interceptions I can't use any 95-98 seem like they are not defending and I saw several times i had puck and puck still seems to leak through like magic, i also saw where puck seems to magically go down wards and into net which would never happen, everything seems pre-determined with scors going 6-6, so please raise pass interceptions and lower scores, tell me why does Aim-assist not score as much, we must've flung like 30-7 shots and not score o.o😧 I also had my gall bladder out in november-december, now i got plantersfanstis, am 36 years old now 😁What does everyone want to c in NHL27
I want to c a be a coach become a thing whether that be in franchise or a separate mode were we can have a career as a coach or at least be able to create a coach I think that would be cool and to be able to play for ur country in the Olympics in be a pro and also the outdoor games in franchise and be a pro and the all star skills comp and all star game in franchise and be a pro and to have full junior careers back as well
