ITEM SHOP EA TOTY PLAYER PACK (BND)
Contains one TOTY - Offensive player (Account-Bound). Cost 1,000,000 Coins or 13000 Points 1 Items To get 13,000 points in real money it’s $133.49 plus tax. With EA discount it would be $120.14 plus tax. For one card and that you can’t trade or sell this should be a 1 of 6 choice pack account BND pack. It’s not worth the risk of getting the same player that we might already have in our line up. Play you way you say then be fair to you paying costumers that want a choice pack when it comes to this TOTY ACCOUNT BND it should a choice pack 1 of 6 this way we don’t lose real money on double player we might have in our line ups. It will help with lower ranked teams getting at least one TOTY for there team. And it will bring more sales for this item in the shop. My fellow gamers would agree. Look forward to my fellow gamers response and EA’s… Good day.93Views2likes2Comments

Midwest Server Issues?
I’m having such an issue with ping right now and matchmaking. (Takes a lot longer to find a game this past week) Feel like I’m losing my mind. Played all year on 22-28 ms(with my ping limit set at 30ms) and now I can’t find a game less than 40ms(with the same setting for searching) changed nothing , wired fiber internet (google fiber , Omaha NE) My speed test on my computer is 1ms 925 down and 930up - my Xbox is hard wired, I reset my console, re downloaded the game, reset my internet, and even changed cables. I reached out on Reddit and found another Midwest player with the same issues. i was wondering if something happened this past week to the satellite servers in (Denver, Minneapolis,Chicago) thanks,, Just annoyed can’t play the game competitively on 40+ ms… anyone else having issues in the Midwest?173Views0likes16Comments
Ranking System in online versus broken…?
Why do I consistently get matchups that have absolutely no sense in online versus mode this year? I have been playing every year for the last 20 and never had this issue before… My CR rating is in the 500s (average player) and I get matched every game with players who are significantly lower or higher in CR… like way off… the results. Games are not competitive anymore and I either get slammed 10-3 because I play ppl who are top 100 in the world or I smash others because I get people in the 200s CR ratings (which I suspect are bots…) Has that game this year so underperformed that there is almost no one playing anymore?? Why was I able to play nhl 24 throughout the full year last year and play people at my level and not this year? I get we may want good connectivity and fast matchups but shouldn’t be the primary criteria… Anyhow I have uninstalled the game now, and this is the last time you will get my money on NHL… I do hope you fix this non sense so you dont lose more casual players like myself.92Views0likes3Comments
Reflection on EA Sports NHL Franchise Mode
Long post. translation supported by gpt chat. if it is not understandable delete it 😀 I don’t understand why the NHL team doesn’t take inspiration from FC or Madden NFL. In those games, Franchise Mode isn’t undervalued like it is here. Here are some thoughts I’d like to share about NHL’s Franchise Mode: I like playing all the games—82 regular-season games plus the playoffs. Managing trades, contracts, and more is fine, but if I only wanted to manage, I’d buy a simulation game like Franchise Hockey Manager 8! Give it a try—you’ll love it. When I watch Franchise Mode videos on YouTube, I’m stunned to see so many content creators go through entire careers without playing a single game. Unreal! Why isn’t Franchise Mode designed like a coach’s career? Based on performance, I could be fired or receive offers from other teams. I could give pre- and post-game interviews, talk to players, and manage a staff to help with daily tasks. A broadcast-style presentation could keep me updated on other teams, scores, drafts, trades, and end-of-season awards. If you enjoy simulation, that’s fine—it’s a personal choice. The tools already exist; they just need better implementation. Why don’t players have fluctuating form during the season? EA talks a lot about simulation, but this omission isn’t realistic. It feels like every player is always at full energy. Adding training sessions, like those in FC, would make the game more engaging. The obsession with sliders needs to stop. Enough! We spend months tweaking sliders to find the perfect settings, only to never achieve a satisfying result. I want a more polished product with fewer, well-thought-out options. I haven’t completed a season since NHL 97! For a while, I played NHL 2K, which handled this much better. EA, make a game that’s either good or bad, but make it properly configured for Franchise Mode! Too many stats complicate the experience. Tracking an excessive number of metrics forces us to replicate them in the game, which takes away the fun. Do we really care about passing percentage? Even NHL.com doesn’t include that in its game reports. Do we need to know how many power plays or penalty kills a team has, or would it be more useful to see just the success rates? For goalies, do we really need to know the total number of shots faced, or is a save percentage enough? Reducing both team and player stats to only the most essential ones would make the game much more enjoyable—and ease the stress over sliders! In general, if I want the experience of a real game, I’ll go to the arena. I play video games to have fun, not to replicate every tiny detail of reality, though I do want a sense of realism that fits into the time I have available. I hope that someday, Franchise Mode and career players can truly enjoy this amazing sport in video game form again. That’s my opinion. Thank you for reading.76Views2likes1CommentWhy is it extremely difficult to move an already played Sim into an empty lot?
Hello, I have spent a few hours trying to figure this out, but I eventually did end up moving a sim from a household to an unplayed household and to an empty house. It shouldn't be this way. I did try to MCCC, but this Sim ended up missing (Eventually I found that Sim still in the lot they were supposed to move from). I understand that they only way to move a Sim into an empty lot is when you create a new one in CAS. But it's difficult to do that with Sims that you are already playing with. You would have to make them move into an unplayable household to do that. But my question is, why isn't there an empty lot option when you are trying split a household? And why isn't there an option to split a household so that the Sims can move into an empty apartment? The only option with spliting them up is to move into other full households.
