Sliders need to be better explained and fixed
Be A Pro sliders make no sense. When adjusting sliders, human sliders should ONLY affect the human player, not the CPU teammates. When adjusting sliders, in attempt to make scoring easier, cpu teammates run up the score. It takes me 15-20 shots on goal to get one past the goalie, while CPU teammates end up scoring 4 and 5 a game. I’ve tried many combinations.
NHL 26 early wishlist (let’s make NHL great again)
First off I will say nhl 25 is actual a huge step up im liking it so far , but it’s missing some details to feel complete.. full presentation needs to return and add more to what we had in the past games In edit player menu have the ability to change the color of sticks and gloves (nhl 2k had this) and now players have been customizing their own as well. Customizable tape job (adjust length on shaft and blade and not have it preset) And add the ability to edit goalie masks. hitting and collisions need to be tweaked to more realism. Franchise: be able to control more than one team able to scout and sign players from other leagues(I.E europe) Real coaches or at least customizable coaches A customizable GM character, have conversations be shown like it is in fifa where your Gm Meets the player. office similarly to dynasty mode in nhl 2004 On the hub where we get details of what went on in other games we can see highlights (either by clip or a screen shot) with description such as ‘stamkos nets a hat trick in last nights win’ and a small clip or screen shot showing stamkos scoring his 3rd goal. Be a pro: change up the whole be a pro game mode make it more like life the life. ability to use NhL players to continue their career or an nhl legend Street clothes for off days and make it interactive. If I buy a condo or a house i want to actualy see my self living in it. Same with the car we get, be able to drive around (a small map) and not just be a attribute boost. Pond hockey pick up games you can walk to or drive to when you leave your ‘house’ Call it a ‘hall of fame room’ similar to skybox 2k had in nhl2k5 where you had the Stanley cup and other interactive stuff and unlockables. Be able to decide to start from being drafted at 18 or create a 30 year old forward who just signed with an nhl team etc.. more interactive with teammates and coaches and GM list of teams you want to be traded to etc.. extras add winter classic and all star game (skills + game) both as a play now mode and also in franchise and be a pro. player retiring playing their last game get a ovation from crowd. Announce the player will retire 1 game before their last skate with the cup (playoff mode, season mode , franchise and be a pro) Tweak the fighting engine and allow more than one fight happening at once. this is a lot of an ask, but if we can get half of these implemented we are definitely heading Into greatness with NhL games.
How to Fix Be a Pro for NHL 25 and beyond
As a consumer who has owned every NHL game since 07, I have always hoped for an NHL game that would truly give the experience of living my dream of playing in the NHL. Be a Pro has always been my go to game mode, however the be a pro mode in NHL24 left a lot to be desired and at times became unplayable. Below you will find suggestions related to the game mode that I believe could fix Be a Pro. Its unrealistic to expect a full turn around in a game mode in a year, so for the sake of organization, this will be split into three categories; Immediate changes, near future changes, and far in the future changes. IMMEDIATE CHANGES: -Fix the freezing problems when obtaining X-Factors (Happened a couple times to me) -Fix the Glitch where your player randomly ages 5 years. Fix bug where challenge results are automatic failures despite completing them. -I'm not a rookie in my 10th year, stop calling me a rookie. -Return the request trade function ( Was literally in NHL 23) -Make the secondary positioning an optional feature; if i want to play as a natural center, i should not have to play right wing for 6 years to be put in my wanted position. -Custom rosters for the memorial cup or champions cup paths. -make the enhanced celebration camera optional (takes away from the realism of the goal which in my opinion looks bad) -settings to turn off select cut scenes (teammate challenges, etc....) Near Future Changes: -Create a secondary presentation that looks like how NHL games are broadcasts (doesn't need to be an exact replica or branded with TNT, etc..) -Allow an All star game to take place, would mean more than just having your all star game selections increase by 1. -Winter classic/stadium series games. -Put the start in CHL option back in the game (baffling why it was removed) -settings to turn off select cut scenes (teammate challenges, etc....) - put message and news board back into game( i shouldn't have to wait 10 minutes for the overlay in the bottom to know what my teammates are traded for or who got injured) -injury notices (like in NHL 20 when you get injured a popup appears telling you you injury and time you'll miss. get injured in 24 will i miss 2 games or 74, who knows?} Future changes -Full skills competition -Draft combine/CHL will determine your potential rating -Your potential will change based on your level of play. -International tournaments (WJC, World cup, Olympics) -changeable clothing for cut scenes -clothing, equipment, stat boosts stores. -Equipment upgrades are purchased with your in game salary (if you break a stick you must buy one unless you have an equipment sponsor) -Negotiable contracts (negotiate contracts based on performance and potential, includes salary, signing bonus, incentives) -Proper endorsements (equipment sponsors, casual wear, etc...) and images found within an endorsements tab which shows the image of say your character on the cover of of NHL 2X (similar to NHL 14) -Story mode -TNT Panel between periods -licensed broadcast presentation similar to the old NBC one Obviously many of these suggestions wont be done in the near future but i believe many of them would make the game mode much more immersive. and the immediate changes would be the bare minimum to make the game playable for me.
NHL 24 BaP Feedback
My Thoughts On NHL 24 BAP The Highs: First off, let's give credit where it's due. NHL-24 nails the core gameplay. The controls are smooth, the on-ice action is intense, and during those heart-pounding moments, it genuinely feels like you're in the game. The Lows: But, and it's a big BUT, the Be a Pro (BAP) mode is like a minefield of frustrations. Quadruple penalties? Wonky checking and boarding that messes with the flow? Goalie glitches? Yeah, they're all here, tarnishing what could have been a stellar experience. Tech Headaches: Now, let's get technical. Scoring display effects and goalie interference miss the mark on promised realism. Oh, and the player disfigurement after scoring? Not exactly what I signed up for. These glitches are like a constant reminder that the game might not be as polished as we hoped. Radio Silence from EA: To make matters worse, EA Sports has been playing the silent game. No updates, no transparency on bug fixes – nada. It's like shouting into the void. Players deserve better communication, especially when they've dropped both time and hard-earned cash on the game. Community Outcry: If you're wondering if you're alone in this frustration, check out the socials. Reddit, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok – the community is sounding off. Thousands of posts detail everything from gameplay woes to technical hiccups, creating a vibe of collective disappointment. Final Thoughts: So, NHL-24, you've got potential, but right now, it's a flawed journey through virtual ice hockey. We're all hanging tight, hoping for those updates to drop and fix what needs fixing. Until then, it's a mixed bag, my friends, and we're left eagerly anticipating the game's true potential to shine through.

I cannot get the On-Ice Trainer, specifically the Feedback Hints, to work at all. It was very helpful for me because I'm still very new to hockey and I dont know a lot of nuances of the game. I have tried putting On-Ice trainer in Adaptive, Beginner, and Intermediate mode, all with the Feedback Hints option On, and I don't get those green and red feedbacks above my player like in NHL23. Is there something I'm missing?NHL 24 Be a Pro Freezes
Hi The game freezes in Be a pro when you talk to the coach. I've seen it happen to others as well, it's when you are about to get the ability YOINK! I've tried to reload old files, reinstalled the game, removed saved games and start a new Be a pro. I have had the same issue on 4 different Be a pro characters. And in all of them the game freezes at the same point when talking to Coach about the ability YOINK! Any tips?
