imma tell u right now traits are not gunna work

And why wouldn't they? By that video right there, it works well. Rather then AI guys being on a string and acting all the same way, it gives them some personality. Players have more then one trait, and will help the AI. Take the example they used for Ovey, who normally would sit and wait till his team touched the puck to know "hey we are on offence." Now he moves ahead of the action, anticpating what will happen.

Plus these are "traits", not blueprints set in stone. So they will do this stuff sometimes, not all the times.

they will only work if you actually know how to use them and have a little set-up patience. if you just try to fastbreak cross crease, no they wont work. :smug:

ROFL @ this situation I'm in.

Played this habs fan who ends up potting 2 goals on me.

He's doing everything in the book to be a homo like you would expect. So the game freezes up and were sitting at the screen where you fly back and forth. He tells me to quit and tell him to die in a fire.

After 15mins of back and forth we both are now sitting here watching the screen go back and forth and both refuse to quit lol. I've been watching tv for the past hour and flipped it back and its still sitting there going back and forth and he's pissed cuz he wants me to quit and take the loss. He tried baiting me into the whole thing saying he's got all night and said he was going out for a run and shit like that. He said just quit cuz he wants to play another game and I replied with "you have no idea who your dealing with, I refuse to take a free loss to a habs fan and this thing can stay on for weeks for all I care. Its on a UPS so if the power goes out my internet and xbox will stay on".

Fuck that fool he's got nothing on me :smug:

Quick update:

So I sent him a message describing the episode of operation repo I was watching and told him if he's in canada its on OLN if he gets that channel.

He's more pissed now. hahaha

 

[leaffan]

[wr50l]

Looks good, but I've always had the opinion of why should I play off-line BAP when I can play on-line with other people?

 

[leaffan]

That trailer was beyond epic.

Rofl at them pretty much going over the top with everything in be a pro. I hope it lives up to the hype.

Seriously how many times a season do you see the glass break from a check or the goalie get checked into the boards? This video makes it seem like it's a common occurrence.

It prolly is to show off the only new shit they added lol.

Chase (on OS.com) said that the last time he saw the game, they had toned down the glass breaking. It was abundant during E3 to show of the new feature and I'm guessing it's the same in these videos.

Cause when you play online you are playing with "fake" players, "fake" teams and are not really playing for anything. Winning a monthly trophy simply is "have a 4 game win streak at the end of the month". lol

Offline you are playing an actual career in the real leagues.

Kind of a big difference in what you're doing.

I hope so too.

I guess, I would just rather play with real people who **sometimes** make really good plays instead of the computer which does the same stuff all the time.

U guys sure do bitch alot

Apparently that's been fixed this year (again)

U guys sure do bitch alot

They let you post on VSN from jail?

I guarantee the go to the net trait will not work even if the rest do. We all know no computer player has ever gone to the net or ever will in an NHL series.
