Online Versus Feedback – Please Improve Gameplay Consistency
Hello EA, I only play Online Versus, and I really enjoy the mode. However, there are several issues that make the experience frustrating. I hope you will consider the following feedback. 1. Add an "Avoid Player" option Please give players the option to avoid being matched against specific opponents. It would make the experience much better without affecting normal matchmaking for everyone else. 2. Improve matchmaking based on connection quality Some matches are affected by freezing, lag, or unstable connections. It would be great if players with poor or unstable connections were less likely to be matched together. 3. Body checking feels extremely inconsistent This is my biggest concern. In most Online Versus games, it is difficult to land body checks because skilled players can easily avoid them. Then, every once in a while, I face an opponent who somehow lands 40–50 successful body checks in a single game. That feels completely different from every other match. Please investigate whether this could be related to gameplay balance, netcode, desynchronization, or another issue. 4. Too many injuries and excessive fatigue from body checking When one player lands an unusually high number of body checks, it often causes multiple injuries and drains the opposing team's energy. This has a huge impact on the outcome of the game and does not feel balanced or fair. 5. Goalie consistency Goalies often feel inconsistent. Some games my goalie allows very soft shots, while the opposing goalie makes multiple breakaway saves and cross-crease saves that seem almost impossible. The difference between goalies from one game to another feels too large. Final thoughts I love Online Versus and want NHL to be the best hockey game possible. I'm not accusing anyone of cheating. I'm simply asking EA to investigate these gameplay inconsistencies and improve the overall experience. Thank you for reading and for continuing to support the NHL community.game disconnect nightly...
Every night play in Chel online league play(NHL26) i will drop several games a night. It will lag out and drop me from the game saying "you have been disconnected from the EA servers" . I do not drop from the game chat with my friends. Last night i played in 3 games and dropped from every game. I don;t drop from Call of Duty or Helldivers when i play those games. My PS5 is connected via lan cable and my internet is 500/50. I searched and found some ports to try and added those to port forwarding. I changed DNS from google to cloudflare, Changed from Lan cable to wifi and nothing has helped. Has anyone experienced this crap and is there any other workarounds?WOC
Just about every night when I try to play clubs i keep getting kicked out at the start of the games, that’s even if I get brought into the game with my teammates most of the time they get pulled into a game while I stay in the lobby. Ive tried clearing my saved data on Xbox, restarting my wifi, reinstalling my game, changing my wifi settings. All of it nothing works it’s honestly so ridiculous this has been a month long issue, I have Ethernet too and have no issue in an single other game I try to play.
ON-ICE TRAINER GLITCH
NO MATTER WHAT! I cannot remove certain ice trainer visuals on the ice… even with everything turned off, I still see mainly the X triangle square and circle showing me where to pass. All I want is for this to be FIXED PLEASE… most of the trainers are removed and it’s not a problem except for this one constant issue.Unfair RP Loss Due to Server/Connection Error in NHL CHEL Drop-Ins
Hello, I would like to report an issue that happened to me in NHL CHEL Drop-Ins. We queued for a match as a team of 3 players. We found opponents, confirmed the match, and started loading into the game. However, during the loading process, I received notifications that my teammates had disconnected one by one. They did NOT leave intentionally — the game itself kicked them out unexpectedly. As a result, I entered the game alone, and the match was immediately canceled. The problem is that only I lost RP/points because of this. I lost exactly 952 points. My rank was Diamond 3, Bar 2, while the opponent I matched against was only Silver 1. I also have a recorded video that clearly shows this issue and proves that it was caused by the game/server and not by us. I would like to ask if it is possible to restore my lost points since this happened because of an error on your side. I can provide the video evidence if needed. Thank you very much.
Failed to retrieve data... ERROR CODE: 9D529E1FE2CCB328 Only in World of CHEL
I'm getting this freaking error every time I try to play any game of any kind within the WOC. It started out when I was going back into ProAm to play and now I'm getting the error no matter what kinda match I try to start in CHEL. Please help EA forum mods or whoever. I've tried all the standard to troubleshooting steps and am at a loss.
