Franchise mode play by play names are ridiculous.
The franchise mode play by play names are absolutely ridiculous. so many of them are unrealistic, like no one’s play by play name is going to be “believe the hype” that’s just ridiculous. in addition to that, there’s some cool logos like this one of a humpback whale, and there’s no play by play name called humpbacks. it’s stupid please fix it it’s impossible to create cool teams with it. and for the love of god, PLEASE MAKE HUMPBACKS A PLAY BY PLAY TEAM NAME IF YOUR NOT GONNA DO THE OTHER THINGS PLEASE JUST DO THIS PLEASE!!!NHL 27 Realistic Must Have's:
I am putting down simple realistic add on's for NHL 27 that do not require any new licensing with external corporations . - Be a pro: Be a pro has vastly improved I will give EA that, however I believe that small tweaks like more interaction with your pro off the ice like an option to have team practices and on ice drills that can benefit your players attributes and build chemistry would be beneficial to everyone. Secondly, add in the all star game, 4 nations, olympics (without formally calling it the olympics) Lastly, please make it more rewarding to be good defensively and to add to performance score without having to score goals or put up points - Franchise Mode: Please please please bring in LTIR, retiring jersey numbers, team practices, more interaction off ice, and interviews as the GM to clarify the direction of the team. THE MAIN THING IN THIS ENTIRE FORUM IS THIS, PLEASE BRING IN LIVE SEASON STARTING DATES, if the NHL season is on say January 24th then I want the option to start January 24th with the current record of that team and updated overalls and rosters to that point. IT IS INCREDIBLY BORING TO HAVE TO START IN SEPTEMBER WHEN THE SEASON IS OVER. IN FACT IT IS INFURIATING! And as I stated before, please bring in the all star game, skills competition, 4 nations, olympics (without calling it the olympics if need be) and just allow more fun things to do. Franchise Mode has improved but there is a lot of work left to do Gm Connected would be a cool add on too but I am not expecting the moon. BUT PLEASE DO THESE THINGS TO FRANCHISE MODE OR AT LEAST THE STARTING DATE OPTION TO START IN SEASON LIVE!Make NHL games great again (NHL 27 wishlist)
Although nhl 25 and 26 are good games, they arent necessarily at great level yet. these are some additions i would add to lean towards greatness again Gameplay: -Bring back + add presentation(Team entrance, consistent national anthem, goalie warmups,commentators recap during intermission not just seeing replays. maybe have a panel like we see on tv) - In game highlights recap (during wihistles, add realistic presentation) - More realistic collision, hits, physics -Graphix improvement, more shadow, better cloth movement, make players look more realistic than they are. Some players really do not look like themsleves. -More realistic skating and movement (though this has been a step up already) -Better fighting engine, it is literally more than 10 years old now. -Score board should add series tracker (when playing playoffs in any mode) Customization: - I asked this in the last few NHLs, but being able to change glove colors in any mode as well as stick color. NHL 2k had this, and it just added to the element of customization. - more stick tape options ( being able to actualy customize how long we want the stick shaft tape lenght to be and how much tape we want on the blade ) not just preset options. (Zibanejad for example has super long stick shaft tape and we cant replicate this anymore like we used to in 2k) - Custom goalie masks or at least able to change colors of the designs - create a team: cutomize logo for more freely (size, add layers, sponsors etc..) able to customize jersey entirely additional to the preset jerseys we can choose. Franchise: - Able to sign PTO's - more flexibility to trade for NMC players. (have a conversation with GM and player to see if there is a fit) rather than just not able to offer a trade for the player. -Activity feed to be more interactive -draft day floor with team, players being called up to stand for round 1 and then simpler draft style for round 2 to 7. -Being able to edit the draft class -Players with generic faces should be able to change the faces to what we want to match the realism of how they look, this should not be locked unless it is a face scan player. -ERA's mode (nba 2k has this) it would be more expansive when using legend players and teams -CBA to vote on changes in the league (NBA 2k has this) -Being able to edit generic coaches/assistants. able to also create your own GM avatar. - Bring back style similar to dynasty mode from nhl 2004. - Awards being more interactive and not just a list of who won - Stanley cup banners raised cut scene either when cup is won or first home game of the next seasonDedicated Server vs peer to peer
Hi, I would like to know if HUT or online versus is on dedicated server or peer to peer, cause for some reason when i play HUT on a 10ms ping the gameplay feels very heavy and delayed compared to online versus on a 70ms ping. It feels more responsive on online versus. Can someone explain please ?GMConnected PLEASE
My buddies and I LOVE the game. We play clubs online together but we jump over to Madden or other options that have some sort of GM Connected mode. Does anybody know why it’s not in the game or why it’s been left off the titles? There’s 6 of us that would all get in and get involved. We would be ADDICTED
Operating budgets & division realignments ideas for NHL 27.
So NHL 27 needs to allow the user to fully control their budget. If I have only 2.4 million to upgrade/repair per season then what do I do if I want to renovate? I would need to save or have the ability to spend more money. I made the 33rd franchise the Oklahoma City Outlaws, and my area is 10 years old and I just don’t have enough money to repair let alone upgrade my arena. I would really like to see this feature get updated and allow the user to do renovations and major upgrades to the arena, but allow the user more money or allow them to save money over the course to of at least two seasons? Also, division realignments would be awesome as well, my AHL affiliate is the Tulsa Oilers, but I am in the eastern conference and North Division… please allow user to make their dynasty/franchise mode theirs! This also includes the AHL & would it hurt if the ECHL was added just like in Baseball games? When I draft a player I want to watch their career progression and development to the fullest. Go Outlaws!WOC Store Jerseys/Sticks/Skates

Team Builder in NHL 25
The addition of team builder to NHL 25 would be incredible. For many years, I have spent countless hours in the creation zone, creating hundreds of teams and thousands of players. Team Builder is far superior to the NHL creation zone. The creation zone has barely been updated since 2017 (maybe even longer?) and Team Builder would be a fantastic solution and a welcomed feature. This is something that benefits both online and offline players. Thanks EA.
