NHL 13

Ravin

Dishing the Gino's
First video for NHL 13 is out, but it doesn't really saying anything other than they are doing something with the skill stick.



Unles they seriously add online franchise I'm probably skipping this year. I just can't be bothered to keep buying this when EASHL is old after a couple of weeks, and offline just doesn't appeal to me right now. I thought with action tracker I'd be all over it, but I never got by juniors.

Next video is out on Wednesday.
 
NHL 12 was 11 with a 2 scribbled over the one and more retarded checks. So, IDK if I pick this one up right away.

They should revamp OTP, make it sexier.

I'm 50/50 on it at this point in time, but if Datsyuk wins the cover contest then I'm going to get it no matter what.

good reason to buy a game....

EASHL got old for me quick this year too. EA didn't spend 1/2 as much time at fixing glitches and releasing tuner sets which got old quick. Also the uniform editor has remain unchanged which is dumb not to mention the resolution on the jerseys went whack and was never fixed. I really wanted to like it but it became a chore to play. Hopefully NHL 13 brings some life and Boss and I can pwn.

I always thought of myself as the enforcer for you guys. Gotta protect the stars.
 
I'm fairly sure Giroix is going to win it this year. Just my feeling on it.

There isn't really much else they can do to OTP. I can't think of any new improved thing to do, other than change the way EASHL playoffs work, and all that jazz. At the end of the day it is still "Play a bunch of games during the month and win 4 in a row at the end of the month." To me that isn't playoffs.

If they want to keep their 4 game system, what I thought they should do is atleast make it a best of seven and match people up based on what game they are in. So if say my team won and lost a game, then we would get matched up with someone in the same situation who is also 1-1 and in game three. Now of course there is the huge issue of matching up, but I remember top spin 3 did it with their tennis tournaments in which if I was in the finals I would have to wait to play someone who was also in the finals. Sometimes you had to wait for someone else. It happens, but to me it makes it more of a playoff atmosphere then just a one loss and you are out.
 
They put out part two of the video which was another thirty second clip. It showed the new physics hitting that started in NHL11, and just said basically "the next revolution is coming".
 
http://nilsenreport.ca/2012/05/19/nhl-13-announces-new-game-features/

EA Sports unveiled details from its upcoming release of NHL 13, and has provided us hockey fans with some very interesting information. I’ve been playing the NHL series since as long as I can remember and never have I seen the game get as realistic as this. One of the features I’m greatly excited about is EA SPORTS Hockey I.Q, which I’ll explain shortly.
When the game releases on September 11th in North America and September 14th in Europe, we will have on our hands a completely revamped NHL video game experience. First on the list, NHL 13 will incorporate True Performance Skating. This is one of the biggest and most innovative changes for the series. The physics driven game has been given over 1000 new skating animations and, when you combine that with the skill stick, this is already starting to be a dream come true. This will allow for realistic skating abilities for players, which will better replicate what we see in the NHL today.
Our second highlight today is what I mentioned above; EA SPORTS Hockey I.Q. This is where the AI will be completely revamped and all players, including goalies, will now be fully aware of what’s going on on the ice at all times. In previous games, they would only be aware of what was going on around them.
Those are just a couple of the new systems that EA Sports will be implementing in NHL 13, however. Here are a few more bullet points to mull over:
Team-First Presentation, which customizes your NHL 13 experience based on your favorite NHL team
The addition of Customizable EA SPORTS Hockey IQ allowing players to create and record their own player and team strategies to a level never before seen in the franchise.
Improvements to core offline and online modes, including Hockey Ultimate Team, Be a Pro, EA SPORTS Hockey League, a refined on-ice presentation, and more.

REDWOOD CITY, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ:EA) announced today the key features for EA SPORTSTM NHL®13, promising the biggest change to the franchise since the introduction of the Skill Stick in NHL® 07.

Please do not fuck this up EA. That is all I ask.
 
I'll probably just do one with ravin leaf and kg that will actually go more than 10 games

If I do an OF it will be small. I don't have the time for a 30 team one where there is a ton of work and planning and rules and shit. Basically I would want just a small 4-6 guys, play at a decent pace, but nothing fast and us hockey guys don't seem to have an issues following "no cheese" rules, so should be good.

You just don't want fappin in because of the 50/50 chance you don't get the Wings lol.
 
I actually never use the Wings in the game outside GM mode. 1 v 1 it's always a random team, so I would have no problem using another team.
 
I would just want to select a team that would be fun to grow with. Edmonton would obviously be a sick choice since they are a very young team, as would a lot of teams. Then you got your challenge teams like Toronto and Montreal that are popular, and teams that could use an overhaul. Thing is, you have to figure out how many seasons you can get in within a certain amount of time. If you can only play 2-3 years in like 8-10 months, it is kind of useless to rebuild. To me, unless you are pounding out a season every month, it kind of defeats the purpose of playing.
 
EA is still doing the season ticket for this here's some of the details.
