Music
For the love of god. The music selection on this video game series, is the most horrific display of music I’ve ever heard in my life. Majority of people who play chel are ages 10-25, they don’t listen to this hideous whatever music you want to call this. Take notes from 2k and madden, weird kids don’t play hockey anymore that phase is gone. Get with the program, please.
Broken implementation of game moments
This is utterly horrific! Developers, don't you have anything better to do? I can't even score. And from any standard position. I recently bought Part 26 and am playing in Franchise Mode. Not only did you copy the buy-ins from the previous game, but now you've added even more problems. Why are my players always falling in the opponent's zone? Why can't I score? I'm playing on the second-to-last difficulty level. Why don't you have a second home jersey for the Oilers with the script? Do you have any respect for this team? I paid for a full-fledged game, and in the end I got a copy of the previous game, and it's broken, too. Perhaps you don't want your game to sell, don't want to make money, or are simply accustomed to being a monopoly in this niche. There's no other explanation.Moments
Doesn't matter who or what the objective is the moments actively work towards not letting you complete them. The parayko poke checks from last week is the first example. How are you going to set a moment requiring 5 poke with a specific player know full well that poke checks DO NOT function properly. This week's example is Josi shot blocks. Get one blocks and the all of sudden every shot the AI is a goal nothing with hit Josi and it's more than obvious. Locked position and low and behold EA for zero reason switched Josis side in overtime so he's AI controlled. It's just little stuff like that that shows the true grime and filth of whoever conjures up these moments. Another I just found out. You cannot switch the AI off aggressive in overtime meaning you can't make Josi stay back to even attempt blocks. This is getting to be a new level of low here. WOW. The more you progress through moments the more EA has set the sliders against the user to point of not even being a challenge just an unenjoyable grind that basically requires you to exploit the game back to complete the rewards. Probably get banned again for this since these managers stay in their feelings but they just refuse to acknowledge a single issue with moments to push their pack sales. It's a grimy despicable practice that needs to change. Lol edit to add the game will you let you switch the offense pressure during the moment but will not let you do it overtime causing josi to play forward and not even attempt defense this is is getting crazy what's going on with pro moments.Missing NHL points
I spent 6,600 NHL points on the new ODR SZN LTD PLAYER ULTIMATE CHANCE PACK (UT) and I revived an error code. I lost my points and did not recive my pack and my points never came back. I’d love to get my points back because it’s a lot of money and I’ve been patiently waiting for them to be reimbursed. (if you pay close attention you’ll see I bought the pack again immediately after the first one failed and you’ll see me go from over 20k points to 7k and change) Idk if the video attached or not, I can email it if I have tooFaceoffs and the pressure system
If we have to deal with this terrible pressure system, then let's make this more like real hockey. If there is a faceoff, and it isn't icing, then both teams should start with full health after the faceoff. The coach would have changed lines and the players would not be forced to remain on the ice. Icing , you can't change lines, this should be the only time you start with less than full health. How ridiculous is it that the team who has just been scored on, has no energy on the faceoff after the goal. How does it make sense that players are still out of energy after a goal has been scored? Why are the effects of the pressure system still there? The game is so broken as it is, why keep making it worse?Broken Player Contract and Salary expectations
PLEASE FIX players under 25 demanding salaries twice their value. It's frustrating drafting and developing players only for them to sign for 1 year until they are UFAs and leave, or have to pay 5 million + their actual value to sign long term. Highly unrealistic and completely wrecks franchise mode. Spending hours rebuilding a team to have no one sign makes it all pointless. PLEASE FIX.cup chase and other things
why is cup chase still freezing during the intermission? is nothing gonna be done? on top of other things like line changes are bad. like atrocious. why isn't manual lines an option like in offline modes. this would help most of the issues i have with it. and it takes 180 alumni 79s to make a 90 heroes card not including having to get 6 85 alumni cards and 24 81-84 alumni cards. definitely don't get enough packs weekly to remotely come anywhere near getting those cards
NHL Alumni
You give us Bobby Orr in NHL 25 & gone in NHL 26 come on EA what was the point of that. What is the Bruins Alumni without Bobby Orr. Bring back Legends you use to have that every one love. Guy LeFleur, Cam Neely, Bobby Hull, We need the russian Legends Mogilny & Bure, Datsyuk, Fetisov, Konstantinov.What's new and fun about this NHL?
I would like to hear from a gamer, not a person who is nothing, what's new in this NHL, the animations are completely bad, the game behaves like the old years? I would like to know what kind of game it is when you make substitutions and a full-energy player jumps onto the ice, gets the puck and doesn't even get to the goal and has no energy, that's how it is in real hockey, right? It's just that this EA shows what kind of incompetent people are in that EA.What's funny about that is that for EA servers the game isn't about skill but what else will ruin it?Another fun xfactor :D I don't know but someone should have it turned on as soon as they get the puck and it will turn on for you as soon as you lose the puck :D that's EA work. Or pointless what the players do. I put in the effort and it was to track the provider and he said I shouldn't be surprised when I'm in the middle of Europe and he invites me to the server of the northern part :D that's just fun. https://www.xbox.com/sk-SK/play/media/dqZZZWucBC A player without a puck takes you down without a penalty, but your PC does it and you go out, where else is the game already decided long ago that you have to lose? https://www.xbox.com/sk-SK/play/media/6acGmkCjRb https://www.xbox.com/sk-SK/play/media/qpXWGMT2Kt I feel like throwing that Xbox at your heads, this is just pure fraud, I wish you only the worst possible outcome for yours, oops.. this game is something completely different from what it was at the beginning, what people didn't pay for
