Pourquoi NHL n'est-il toujours pas sur PC?
Je prends le temps aujourd'hui de venir m'exprimer sur un sujet qui revient depuis plusieurs années, mais qui, malheureusement, semble toujours ignoré, le retour de la série NHL sur PC. Cela fait plus d'une décennie que les passionnés de hockey sur PC attendent avec impatience le retour d'un jeu NHL officiel. Pendant ce temps, d'autres grandes franchises sportives, comme FIFA et Madden, ont non seulement conservé leur présence sur PC, mais ont aussi continué à évoluer d'année en année. Pourquoi NHL reste-t-il l'exception? Le hockey est un sport mondialement apprécié, et il y a une forte communauté de joueurs PC qui est prête à soutenir et acheter le jeu s'il était enfin disponible sur notre plateforme. Plusieurs fans en viennent même à chercher des alternatives ou à se détourner complètement de la série à cause de cette absence. Nous sommes en 2025, la majorité des jeux sont multiplateformes, et avec l'essor du jeu en ligne et du crossplay, il devient de plus en plus incompréhensible de laisser les joueurs PC de côté. Nous ne demandons pas l'impossible. Nous demandons simplement d'avoir la chance, nous aussi, de vivre l'expérience NHL, de bâtir nos équipes, de jouer entre amis, et de suivre notre passion pour le hockey sur nos ordinateurs.
Bring NHL back to PC – Crossplay potential
Hello EA Sports NHL Team, I have been a loyal NHL fan since NHL 07 on PC. After that, I played every NHL game on PS3, PS4, and PS5, buying each new release. But now that I’ve switched to PC, I can’t play NHL anymore, and I really miss it.I truly believe NHL on PC has great potential, especially with crossplay. Many PC players want to play with their friends on consoles, both together in online clubs and against each other. If crossplay works in FIFA and NBA, why not in NHL? Eventually, it will have to happen, so why not now?By not releasing NHL on PC, you are losing dedicated fans who have simply moved to a better platform for graphics and performance. It’s frustrating that I can no longer enjoy NHL with my friends like before. My friend and I used to create an online club—me as a Center, him as a Goalie—and we had so much fun playing together. Now, I have no way to experience that, and I know I’m not the only one in this situation. I don’t want to buy a console just for NHL, and I don’t want to be forced to just watch others play while I sit out simply because I chose to game on PC. Please consider bringing NHL back to PC with full crossplay support. There is a demand for it, and many fans would love to see it happen. Thank you for your time.
NHL 26 mode franchise
Jai une question pour tous ! j’ai pour habitude de monter mon équipe en franchise et de simuler les parties afin de regarder mes joueurs aller ça rends le tout nettement plus réaliste et ..j’ai toujours fait ça et c’est très plaisant mais depuis NHL 26 peu importe les joueurs que j’ai peu importe l’intensité et la qualité de mon équipe je finis l’année avec des saison de 60 win et 7 défaites mais tous des parties gagner 2-0 ou même 1-0 la plupart du temps .. mes joueurs ne joues tout simplement pas mais mes gardiens arrêtent tout 🤣 c’est tes plate comme spectacle lol c’est ma troisième équipe et ce me fait encore ça . Est ce que je suis le seul ?NHL 27 and on Should Build Around 6v6 – Here’s Why
To the NHL Development Team, I am writing this as someone who genuinely loves this franchise and wants to see it grow long term. The gameplay has improved in many ways. Movement feels better and the pace feels better. However, there are competitive balance issues and a larger direction issue that needs attention if NHL 27 is going to grow instead of plateau. This is not a rant. It is a case for where the franchise has real long-term potential. The 6v6 community, which is the most structured and competitive part of the player base, is struggling with specific mechanics. Truculence is a problem. Most serious 6v6 leagues ban it outright. When organized competitive communities self-ban a feature, that is a sign of imbalance. Back Atcha allowing reverse hits to counter poke checks removes defensive skill expression. Hitting should feel like realistic contact such as bumping, angling, and separating from the puck rather than sending players flying every shift. Too many goals slide under goalie pads. Low quality trickle goals are not satisfying to score or defend. Skill based top corner shots should be more viable and rewarding. Competitive players want balance and skill expression, not arcade overrides. The bigger issue is the 6v6 ecosystem being undersupported. Right now, the franchise feels centered around HUT monetization. I understand why, as Ultimate Team generates strong revenue. However, industry data consistently shows that players engaged in organized teams and social groups have significantly higher retention rates than solo players. Multiplayer research shows that players in organized squads stay longer, social identity increases lifetime value, and competitive ladders increase engagement per session. NHL already has this foundation in EASHL 6v6 Clubs, but it has not been fully built out. Bringing back the spirit of GM Connected in a 6v6 League Connected format could change everything. Imagine built in commissioner tools, scheduled games, draft systems, player trades, integrated stat tracking, promotion and relegation between major and minor leagues, smart CPU fills that are actually competent, and a built in social hub similar to Discord. Right now the community builds all of this manually outside the game, which means engagement is happening off platform. If NHL owned that infrastructure, it would increase retention, streaming content, rivalries, community growth, and organic esports pathways. I am not saying remove HUT. However, 6v6 could be monetized in long term ways through custom arenas, goal horns, ice projections, club banners, jersey alternates, league branding packs, arena cosmetic upgrades, and championship prestige cosmetics. Players will pay for identity, especially when it represents their team. The emotional attachment to a club over multiple seasons is stronger than attachment to a temporary card lineup, which creates long term monetization rather than annual reset monetization. Offline modes also need attention. Be A GM and Be A Pro have not meaningfully evolved in years. Offline modes are entry points into the ecosystem, and if offline stagnates, the pipeline shrinks. The NHL franchise does not need to chase arcade shooter energy. It already has something stronger: structured, social, competitive hockey. The 6v6 community is not asking for chaos. We are asking for infrastructure. If you build around 6v6 identity, league systems, and social retention, you will strengthen the entire franchise's long term health.
