Finally got a few games in...game plays top notch.

EASHL rages me.
The offline stuff though is pretty good.
Be A Pro is simply 100X better now. It takes about an half an hour to play through a game and I noticed my first line player gets the proper amount of shifts and ice time.
I haven't even tackled Beagm yet but I usually wait till october just so rosters are up properly.

So ravin is once again leading in points
Game does play much better with more people, unlike years past where you could just run in with 2. The AI on defence is just
. You just have no idea what they are going to do on any given play.
All you need to know when thinking of the NHL vs Madden series is the two people involved in making the games.

Goalies suck. I had a goal similar to that against Ravin. Abdelkader dumped it in from center while being rocked and then it bounces off the boards behind the net and goes in off Fleury's skates.

I personally like the goalies. The randomness of goals is better though. There are glitch goals, don't get me wrong, I know a couple. I just like getting goals from taking shots and trying to snipe as opposed to figure skating around the D and trying to get a backhand lol.
One-Timers and cross-crease passes are very easy goals though, not going to lie. My only 2 losses are from guys who would do the loop glitch, which they are fixing, and cross creasing like whores.

Randomness is one thing. Pure utter shit is another thing.
I like you can wrist shot and beat goalies. But it is this shit that is always under the catching arm, or low-hit the inside of post and in stuff that happens. Or the slowest shot in the world goes five hole.
It is fine in 1v1, but in EASHL, they need to raise the goalies. I was saying last night, EASHL goalies are like 68. Ok EA, you made the point for the past 3 years about playing with a user goalie. But you make the goalie controls so fucked, no one wants to play it. So at least give people a fucking chance. I'd be happy with a 77 goalie rather then a 68.All you need to know when thinking of the NHL vs Madden series is the two people involved in making the games.

Well I just played a guy who's the epitome of whore. He got 4 goals all from the same glitch goal. Most consistent and annoying goal of all time, jesus christ. He also poke checked like no god damn other. On break aways he'd do that, my guy would get tripped up, and no penalty. The poke check is on steroids this year and more annoying than the stick lift last year. No, really, go into a game and ONLY use it, even when you're out of reach. Spam it.Comment

Poke check is more in use because everything is live. So it hits a stick, it moves. That is the way they have the game now. Stick lift does shit 75% of the time I find.All you need to know when thinking of the NHL vs Madden series is the two people involved in making the games.

Im kind of confused with the EASHL thing. Whats the difference between Be A Pro Mode and EASHL? or are they the same thing?Comment
-
It's not that confusing. Be A Pro is clearly the offline career of a player you control, think Superstar mode or whatever it was called in Madden/NCAA. EASHL is the online career of a player you control and play on a team with friends to win championships against other user controlled teams.
