You and bacon are my two fav NHL vids, but yours are much more informative and less showing off, keep up the great work man. appreciate the vids.
Wow!!!! Thank you for making HUT fun for me again with all of these simple changes!! I was 0-5-1 before and then won 3 straight easily! Immediate noticeable difference turning auto back skate off. Camera took a little getting used to but worth it!
Have to watch ALL of your vids now.
Hey man thanks for the tips it really helped me a lot 😀
Thank you. Before your video I couldn't beat the Panthers challenge. Applied everything the way u instructed, got 7-0 victory. Ty
All your videos are very solid
You're back! After finding your channel mid/late last year I won my next four or five games in a row with a combined score of around 20-2
Good stuff love your vids. Maybe make a video about how you determine who is in your lineups based on their stats etc.? A lot of different views on this so curious who your favorite players are and why. Just a thought thanks man!
Thanks for the good tactics my first game in div 7 I used this tactic and was losing 4-3 with 30 seconds left and scored 2 one-timers with 20 seconds left
Great video
Kick a** vids as always man!!
Can you please make a video on how to deal with the skating (TPS) in this game? I'm constantly spinning right into defenders and losing the puck for turnovers I feel I have no control over whatsoever. Thanks
Very solid, informative vid! 👍
The one thing I disagree on is having ALL d pairings set on their off hands. 3rd pair d line i set to the correct handedness (RD-righty, vice versa). This is usually my shut down DFD guys with weaker shots. Perfect for receiving d zone draws and big breakout passes. All other zone face offs should be set with offhanded Dmen for reasons you said
Why is this on my feed 4yrs later lol
Thanks for this, skipped 17 so I forgot all the strats
Sleeves what do I set my offensive lines and defensive sliders too? The default ones this year are ass.
when you were talking about AI that does forechecking better and were describing 2-3 setup you said: take the SECOND player to the opponent and then "switch off". but when I am switching off I am immediately returning to the FIRST player, because he is closer to the puck than anyone else, while I need to switch on to THIRD player. what should I do?
Hello, How about those playing styles, like playmaker, sniper, twowayforward, and on defend there is defending d man, offensive d-man and twoway d-man, how and do they effect on gameplay and team ?
How well do these strategies apply to playing the CPU?
I have created different custom game settings, and created presets for them, but don't know how to load them? I only have the option to save a preset or overwrite an existing one, but how do I quickly load a preset I saved?
Well done lad. Look forward to using your own settings against you. We need to stream this ass beating.
Thanks for these videos. I was struggling on Pro level (yes I suck) but with just these minor adjustments I'm 1-1-1 in my last 3.
great to hear!
hey man, too much aggressive strateigies for my playing style, takeing too much breakaweays against, there was couple things i picked, but not copy as it was on ur strategies. and question, does those synergies really matter, u didint seem have everyone using em, so do they count?
I noticed that on the Controls screen you have the shooting controls set to "Camera Relative". Why this setting instead of "Always Up"?
really need that playbook dude
I'm god awful at nhl but this video has helped me out a bit. Thanks duder.
What's your Defensive Pairings set at?
how to changing lines manualy when i play "hybrid" controller ?
How do you have your ai settings such as USER/CPU adjustments, AI Learning etc...or are they default or what do you recommend...I’m just getting back into hockey games...I’ve followed everything you’ve preached seems to slightly work but damn do I suck...well I lose if not close and bullshit last min back to back goals by the CPU which is frustrating...THANKS
haha iv alwayssss found that in the last minute of periods, goals ALWAYS go in, almost as iff EA is like lets make this more interesting heres a goal. As for getting back into it buddy, use these strats and check out mmy other how to suck less ones, just takes some practise
How do you turn off that passing line?? And the name tag over the players?!?
How do you save the settings?
Whats the best way to counter when people use these settings against you? Like When they are ALL over you on the forecheck
Jay Kroner move the puck faster. Use the boards. Flip the puck over their heads.
I think you may have fixed my problems by the time you get to turning off auto-checking. I didn't even realize all those settings were a thing and I've felt like I didn't have control of my players. All the auto functions are getting turned off. Thanks!
lmao right? i played like 3 games and was like wtf why are my guys going full magnet
I'm curious to know how you can come up with the NHL18 strategies so soon after the game has come out. How many games have you played in Vs or HUT?
10 hours of hut with the early access on XBOX one!
why do u have energy all they way down?
Do you still use this strategies?
you should really get a pop filter. think about running your audio through a de-esser aswell; it's ordinarily a stock plugin in most DAW's so it should be a simple fix. if not im sure there is a free third party pluggin that you could download but double check which type of pluggins your software is compatible with before downloading. good content though.
How can you make the time go fast guys
So how do you back skate?
hold L2 buddy!
Where should I put my efficiency/energy?
this doesnt matter all to much, but i usually go full energy, like have them play all out. the line changes are soo fast that it doesnt affect you to often.
You didn't touch on penalty kill or power play settings?
soon my friend... soooooon
who are good oppo handed left wingers?
I love this game but it has one really annoying issue. The jump in difficulty from Semi-pro to pro is essentially jumping twice. Every game I have every played has a similar jump in difficulty, most things are the same feel just with more challenge and require more attention and practice. Semi-Pro gets too easy quite quickly and then the jump to Pro is ridiculous, suddenly things that worked perfectly before now are impossible (when most of the time they should still work but less easily).
Also its way too easy to get a tripping penalty in this game
I like the game but im actually horrible. I cant win a game. I give up 7 goals all the time
I don't have auto hitting...?
They must have taken it out because I don't have it either.
It’s in the HUT controller settings, not the main menu controller settings
I don’t have controller settings
So hyped for this game
Am I the only person who likes using the True Broadcast camera?😂😂
Me too, but I use broadcast more
How can judge the depth from that weird ass view? It's cool to watch from, but I couldn't actually be competitive from True Broadcast
moldyrefrigerator If your simming on coach in franchise mode you don't need to see the entire ice. Just line change on dump ins or faceoffs like in actual hockey.
I like it too
Always play on broadcast
Think Kucherov would be be the best oppo hand RW.
Do you still use these strategies? :) Saw this video was posted a few days after the game was released...
ya man! these work great against the average players, once you hit the wall tho, switch to these czcams.com/video/-mWC2tLANuc/video.html
is this strategys still up to date?
i use these now: czcams.com/video/-mWC2tLANuc/video.html
Does anybody know how to make the time go fast in the NHL 18 game please anybody????
Dominick Meade just change the duration of a period to 3 minutes
Can you request a trade in be a pro
Try Crash the net offensive strat. It is very effective off the rush and cycling the puck, players still set up in the overload, but still attack the net alot more
the problem i have with crash the net is that the point tends to get blocked because the forwards are in tighter. with overload you can pass up the boards consistently and frees up one timers from the point. but il give crash the net a little more time this year
Sleeveless Gaming i like it alot sleeves
Sleeveless Gaming but again man your vids are sooo good, we should collab sometime!
Need 19 asap, hut sucks for me rn
literally just finished it haha
OK
Used to be awesome in NHL 13... since then I can't figure out what I am doing wrong. Literally just lost 4-0 with 9 minutes on attack to his 3. I had 43 shots he had 13. I give up! I did use the overhead camera which takes away the graphics of the game but easier to make plays.
Chris Gentry the game is rigged to help balance the game if you guy the out playing the other the team’s goalie that’s getting out played becomes God and your goalie couldn’t stop a beach ball
2 things I disagree with....23 does not do shit. Always run the full forecheck setting with the agressive setup. This way your D will always pinch, and not get caught in limbo. Also your fwds will always pressure puck and atleast disrupt a straight counter if not fully stop it. The other thing I disagree with is using overload for your 4th line. Unless your running another checking line in this spot, then your probably running the goon line here. If so "behind the net" works best as 2 fwds setup on either side of the net, looking to deflect anything shot on net. Its pretty much the only offense you csn get from goonies, and it works pretty well. Neil and Reaves score atleast once a game for me with pure garbage goals just from sitting right next to the pipes.
hey man thanks for the reply, i would take a look at my newer settings video (this one was from launch week), iv changed the way i think the below average players should setup to be in a better position to win a bit.
All these "experts" talking about switching wingers to opposite sides. There is a reason this is wrong and those who disagree, never played hockey or don't know the game at all. You leave the wingers and defensive players I'm their natural positions! Why? Let me break it down.
Everyone who knows hockey knows that we need the stick along the boards to send the puck along the boards, dump the puck in and avoid traffic. If you control the boards you control the game!
Now, once the offense transitions on the attack, because they play the correct position, a left winger who shoots left and vice versa adds an important dimension to the game...
If you can't send the puck along the boards then you are now a one dimensional offense and opponents know you are restricted to the middle of the ice.
The proper way, and it was overlooked by these no it all gamers who, once again... Don't know hockey at all!!!
Keeping players in position allows for not just the board control but!!! No one ever said one timers are much harder when following the proper hockey strategies.
When any good hockey team starts moving up ice... The wingers and center beging to rotate! This causes several problems with the opponent... It's difficult to defend against an offensive attack where the forwards are switching sides on the dime and circulating...
If the winger wants an inline shooting angle, they simply cross over in the neutral zone!!! If they need to dump the puck in and Chase, they need to have that board control which eliminates turnovers and drains the opponents energy!
Keep your players in the proper position and learn how to cross over which allows quick exchange of the puck and helps the DEFENSE lose track of the puck as well!
I Qualify to give this information not as a gamer but actually playing real ice hockey for years!
Disregard anyone giving the terrible advice of moving players to opposite spot!
Michael Jordan as someone who actually plays hockey. Everything you say here is absolutely correct. Except for the fact you clicked on a NHL 18 video and not a “how to play hockey” video. I️ didn’t make the game, I️ just became good at it, and share the strats and setups that will take advantage of the games ai and play style. I️ apologize you disagree with everything I️ said and if the time comes I️ make a “how to suck less at actual hockey” video you’ll be the first person I️ msg.
Sleeveless Gaming I would like to apologise for the way I came across. It was rude of me
Batflip 09 meh... Was pissing me off that night or something
point shots r not op anymore
Overhead canera is soo much better
I'm so so triggered an lost 10 in a row an so choked that I am sucking so much
naw top ones people need to play the 0-5
As soon as I changed my settings to these, my first game in HUT I made this kid rage quit lmao
Why do you noobs use that on-ice trainer ? 😂😂😂😂😂
to make it easier in some vids to explain whats goin on
Sleeveless Gaming and it’s really helpful
Overhead sucks by the way
okie dokie
Sure thing...because knowing where all 5 skaters are doesn't help right?
How, on the normal camera you cant see where your defenseman are half the time
Jesse Foster ya know it helps a lot to see where your 5 players are dipshit
Classic seem pretty good
