No one should be shocked. EA has been doing this for decades.
Ever since micro transactions
Nah not even that it was mainly when nhl switched from Xbox 360 to Xbox one, they completely got lazy and started spitting out the same game with updates, nhl 14 EASHL had micro transactions and they would sell just as good as hut packs, from franchise mode immersive feeling aswell as be a pro nhl 14 was better for that or even nhl 13-12
And EA adding women into hockey, isn’t new, all they did was bring them back from removing them and don’t even add the legends of women hockey
@@Keetan01 also classic ea for bring a old feature and calling it “new”
Lol just add women like fifa, NBA and this and you're good 😂. Let them have the fantasy. 2:21 I rest my case. Enjoy pride night next year.
@@MrVariantwhy’re you so salty? Them adding features that make sense, like having women, isn’t what makes it bad. Women should be in the game. NHL 23 is pretty garbage, yeah, but it’s not because of that.
EA holding the NHL and NFL license is criminal. Not having any competition has made them incredibly lazy.
EA doesn't have the NHL license. There's simply no competition.
Nhl 2K3 was by far the best hockey game ever created and you could play it from broadcast tv mode so there would be competition but noone cares about hockey, I agree that nhl 2003 and 2004 were good that maybe why nhl 2k3 never got the recognitionit deserved as the best hockeygame ever created
They must have a good lobby going with the NHL in keeping it that way
The problem is people keep buying this trash.
Which NHL 2K had Joe Thornton on the front? That was amazing! But, yeah it might be the lack of competition.
i love how before the game even came out I'm just preparing and praying for nhl 24 to be what i'm hoping for. they never fail to uspet the fanbase
EA is a joke. Every sports game they make is a disaster and a letdown to loyal fan bases
Exactly
Someone finally argrees
They should scrap the entire game and build it from the ground up they need a fresh start but will never do it because they know we will buy it every year
@@jodyanderson8418 you meant agree
My wish is that 2k comes out with a hockey game. I don't even care if they can't use player names. I'm ready to support even and Indie developer
They can do whatever they want. Actually anybody can. Nobody wants though.
2k is trash they will vc everything. Yet People only complain when ea has micro transactions but give a pass to 2k lol when 2k is much worse than ea lol Nice Hypocrits
@@electrovampyre1572 I'm talking about game play
@@electrovampyre1572 because the game is actually good they actually add things you just stare at one game mode
@@electrovampyre1572 have u played 2k? There is more depth in 2k23 then there is in NHL, FIFA, & Madden 23 combined
Thanks for the video. I think you nailed it on the head. I have been a diehard EA NHL fan my whole life, but right now I'm contemplating not buying the game for the first time since NHL 98. HUT would be so fun if there were no hockey cards and it was just build a team under the cap and create your own team name, uniforms and arena and play others online. Also how do we not have online leagues (GM Connected) yet? NFL 2k5 literally had this and it was perfect.
No GM connected and we will NEVER see it again because they cant monetize it lol and the developers dont actually like or play hockey so that is why they dont get my money anymore.
I have been buying the game since the first one came out on SEGA back in 91 but haven't for the last 6 yrs
Word!! They have got to put a online franchise mode like madden has...this is crazy...I love playing h2h but I would love to be playing to achieve a cup
Also...that glitch shot kills the game...smh so many people force the issue of getting in the corner so they can skate pass the goalie and score...same shot everytime
i’m so glad someone made a video about this! i’ve been so sick of ea’s game plan every year of adding something they should’ve fixed through a patch and then market it as a new feature for the next game. meanwhile, something that was just fine last game gets broken by ea and then for next game they’ll fix it and announce as a new feature. it’s the same rinse wash repeat for years and they will never be good unless 2k steps in and made a game
Spot on review,
I personally haven't bought a NHL title since 17 because of everything you mentioned.
I remember saying back then that I will wait until NHL24 because the last good one was NHL14
Same, but its NHL 18 for me and I thought this was going to be the year. Now I'm not so sure
@@jaysleeper264 NHL 18 was the last good NHL. ever since they added stupid attributes to EASHL they completely ruined that game mode.
I still got my NHL14
@@anthonycampisi3474 totally true 18 was the last playable NHL. It had its flaws but was something you wanted to play when you were at home.
@@ggqbc I’d argue that nineteen and twenty weren’t completely awful. They weren’t good, but everything after was so much worse
100% agree with you. I never noticed things being taken out and then been added back in. The 2k Sports Stanely Cup celebration would look great in NHL 23. I really think that EA has lost touch with their community. Adding 500+ animations for the last chance puck movement was a waste of time. Nobody asked for it and even if we did, probably 10-15 animations different animations with enough variations would be sufficient. Focusing on gameplay to have a fun game again like you describe should be a priority for online players. Giving offline players the Winter Classic, All-Star games, editable players, and custom goalie helmet would be a good start. I'm not buying NHL 23 because the changes I care about like the ice texture could have been handled in a NHL 22 update.
As someone who has pre-purchased the game I can tell you that what they promised is BS. Passing is still terrible, defensive player selection is still borderline broken, controls have a delay, the gameplay is focused on individual performance and not team play, goalkeepers make impossible saves while letting garbage through, objective completion is bugged, games sometimes load to black screen. This year is the worst EA NHL game I ever played.
You are 100% spot on.. I almost couldn’t make it through this whole video because I’m so mad and have been mad at EA for freaking years now.. every single year they just make the same game they build it off the same base platform every single year and have been doing it since like 2017.. they just refused to build a brand new NHL game from the ground up because they are so lazy.. I swear the EA employees for this game probably show up to work once a month and that’s all they really need because they don’t update crap.. I want gameplay updates I want the gameplay to be better and they just keep focusing on stupid crap and they know it’s stupid and I think they have been mocking us for years.. they take it vantage of all of us because they know that we all love hockey and they are the only game we can play.. I desperately wish there was a competitor. I just want to see EA in a panic and try to actually make a legit game for once. I thought that every single game any company makes every year they are supposed to put their all into it and make it better? EA sports has totally ignored that for years and years now. I almost wish we could legally do something about this and I’ve seen tons of people say this because they keep doing the same thing every year. Obviously I know they are allowed to do this and we are just dumb for buying it but come on now. Enough is enough it’s been going on for years and years now. They already have a thing called “FATMAN LAG” which most people don’t know about because only certain people get it. I’ve had it for years and there’s nothing you can do to get rid of it I know it’s in the coading of the NHL games but it will never disappear unless they build a game from the ground up.
I wonder what the hell they are doing for one year when they develop the game. We can safely assume that they start to develop the next game in spring because they will never work an entire year on one game, but what the hell are they doing in that year to come out only with this crap? And it's not even only NHL, it's in every EA game.
EA Sports needs to lose their NHL licensing. It's getting to the point that some people are even bailing on the NHL because of this relationship.
We need 2K to take the game back
Nothing is stopping them from making another NHL game, they chose to stop making them.
@@VegaMyster EA is stopping them since they own the rights
@@Dshivs They don’t own the rights, they have contracts from the NHL to make them because nobody wants the license, 2K made games right along with them and stopped because they weren’t selling what they wanted.
My wishlist:
GM Connected
Custom Goalie Mask
Winter Classic
World Juniors in franchise mode
Attributes really affect the simulation, like a 96 Mcdavid should get 120+ points
Skills Competition
Goalie animations completely overhauled
they have to let you
play in the world juniors or the actual tournament in Be A pro. Add skills competition to Be a Pro. And winter classic. Be a pro would get more attention.
Great video. Very insightful. Absolutely disgraceful how little they change the game. Feels like they sneakily take good things away like the winter classic. Like what is the reason that they can’t have that in the game? So many great features that have been lost. Nhl 23 is bare bones.
Marchand is a disgrace to humanity. Change that picture you classless Bruins fan
"absolutely disgraceful that they don't waste money on a game that barely makes a profit in the first place"
amerilard moment
So they can put it back later on an call it a ”new feature” 😂
I started at NHL '97. I played real Hockey as well. Almost got a Rangers tryout! I bought it Friday and see it's the same stuff. I don't like WOC. I want to play in NHL arenas with NHL jerseys and equipment. This series has fallen big time.
Great review. I don't even buy sports games anymore, as much as I want to. I will activate my GameFly every other year, try out 3-4 games, and play some with GamePass. But usually I end up buying an older sports title every 2-3 years, and playing it for awhile. I miss the old days of looking forward to a new release.
Thank you for saying what almost everybody that doesn't play HUT feels. Only things I would add are the lack of PC support & the low refresh rate. I was an every year buyer & only played EASHL but I refused to purchase '22 & now '23. (not even when we all know the game is 50% off not long after being released ever year) I will not be buying NHL until high variable refresh rate PC support is added.
Oddly, players & sticks clipping through each other & the boards now matches the horrible on boards digital ads on televised NHL games. **facepalm** "It's in the game"
BOYCOTT HUT
((subbed))
That's never going to happen - pc version. I have it on PS5 but remember NHL22 was running at 120hz on XSX. Both PS5 and XSX are connected to the same TV, so it might be because I accidentally enabled black frame insertion on the XSX input, i'm not sure. All you need is 60 though and VRR, which it has on PS5. it plays great...I think you're making a bigger deal out of this than it really is. Just buy and have fun if you like hockey games.
I have Ps4 what's the best version i should get 23 22 or 21? I also don't play online
I'm with you! For years I've threatened to not buy the game but I always end up giving in and purchasing it. NOT THIS YEAR! I will not allow myself to purchase NHL23. I've bought the NHL game every year since 98, yeah, I'm that old. I used to run online leagues back before there was a such thing as HUT. That's how big a fan and how big a supporter I've always been. But not this year, enough is enough. I suggest everyone skip this game, it's the only way to send a message to EA that we've finally had enough.
They advertised updated presentation but took away full presentation on purpose, and didn’t say anything. Scumbag company
It's so funny how u talk about the random gear unlocking and player progression in CHEL. I sorta miss the days where we all competed to get the Lemiux mullet at P5. It's also funny how u put your fav team and then thats the team gear and jerseys you get the least of. Last year I went 2 months and didn't unlock a single Ranger jersey, switched my fav team to San Jose and had every Ranger jersey in a week.
In NHL 22 I won about 95% of the time. With 23 the CPU takes over, I win maybe 10% of the time. Even if my time on attack and shots on goal are 3 times the opponent’s I still lose. Usually I start by getting a 2 or 3 goal lead. Then all of a sudden every time I make contact it’s an elbowing penalty, pucks start going through my players bodies, it won’t let me switch control to my players closest to the puck, I defend the puck 3 or 4 times but it magically goes right back to the player I took it from, my goalie starts giving up rebounds on every single weak shot…
I stopped buying In 2015…. Such a disservice to a loyal fan base.
We desperately need to resurrect NHL 2k. If 2k just tried id be willing to bet it would utterly annihilate ea and it wouldn't even be close
well thats only if 2k remembers how to make hockey games. ea knows how, its just nhl isnt as popular as other sports so they arent gonna spend tons of money on making hockey game when they wont get it back. you do know how it all works right
@@bittitagiton1359 they would get their money back if they made a game that was actually worth $80 each year when they haven’t changed a thing
Nhl 14 was awesome, with the winter classic arenas
NHl 94, NHL 2004, and NHL 14 were all incredible.Perhaps NHL 24 will be great? I honestly don't have high hopes...
It's ironic that the old game clips rolling in the background at the beginning of the video were all cut-scene animations that were not available in-game, yet used to advertise the game. Their presentation bait&switch tactics go back decades.
I posted a review at NHL 23's Online Forum at EA's website re: how disappointed I was that they didn't include features that have been requested for years. They deleted my post saying it was inappropriate. The EA Moderator sent me a message as well informing me of the same. I replied as follows: "The fact that you removed my post speaks volumes about your company. Very disappointing. You don't listen to the fans/customers, don't give them answers re: why you ignore their requests, and then remove any posts that call it like it is re: your products. On top of that, your games are getting worse and worse every year. Don't agree with that assessment? Just check out the review comments posted virtually everywhere where gamers post comments. One by one, you're causing customers never to return. One day you won't be the only game in town (the only reason you've made it this far). Nothing personal towards you. I realize you're stuck with the Oz behind the curtains running the show there. It is very sad though when I think of what the NHL franchise could be and should be after all these years. The Madden franchise is in the same sinking ship too BTW (IMHO). Be well.” I then posted a follow up forum comment and they banned me for 24 hours saying I was “discussing moderation.” EA obviously doesn’t want to answer to their loyal customers. I’m done buying their crappy rubber-stamped games. I guess when you’re the only game in town you can be the bully. 2K Sports please come back to the NHL video game arena!
2k10 had great presentation before the game as well as talking about the players and goalie. This years nhl sometimes just goes right to the face off 😢
2k was next level back then
Even in NHL 11, we had custom music, and cutscenes with the players taking the tunnel. It's an embarrassment of a franchise
When I see people complaining about FIFA or NBA 2K being bad and I look at them and I’m like come check out the NHL games, that’s BAD. I swear EA is the biggest con artist in gaming history. Almost nothing changed this year, there is no 100 dollar price justification here. It’s almost criminal what they do. The thing is NHL 22 was actually pretty good, but 23 is just straight AWFUL.
Not to mention to get early access, you have to pre order the X factor edition instead of the regular one. Like in what world do offer a pre order that doesn’t allow early access. Not to mention almost no benefits to begin with.
Does the ps5 controller makes cool sounds with like how fifa 23 did? And is it any good?
2k gotta make nhl24, need a better career mode
Yeah man we need a super cringy corny career story. And always start out as the worst player in the league. And be forced to spend over 150.00$ on vc to upgrade our player. Yes man 2k is totally great and can do no wrong Rolls eyes. #KeepHypocriting
@@electrovampyre1572 nah it's moreso 2k just makes better games lol
2k23 is bad for vc sure but so is nhl so who cares at that point
couldn't agree more. they would make so much more money on selling games if they addressed alot of these things and actually listened to fans. be a pro took a step in the right direction last yr but they absolutely dropped the ball this yr. this alone is the reason for me not to buy it. if it was more like NBA I'd be all over it. big hits and making checking easier would improve the game as well.
Great video. And your last thoughts about HUT being the beginning of the end for this franchise were spot on.
as a gm & be a pro player it pisses me off that they took out the stats tab on your main screen from i think 2014 game. You used to be able to toggle with the stick between team standings top goalies, points goals & assist leaders. It always made me feel more immersed in the game, like some how other people were seeing these stats. to have to go into the stats pages in the last how many years makes stats feel lackluster. i dunno if im explaining this right but i dont know why the fuck it was ever taken out. I also missed when they used to put like an iceberg or fire symbol or whatever next to players names who were on hot/cold streaks. i think thats from 94 or 96. Fuck can you imagine if they consistently added to the game instead of always taking shit out every year and then adding a a few things back over time calling it a new exciting feature.
I feel your pain! I have bought nhl since 2006 as well. But I realized that ea has to come up with some things. I stopped buying nhl games since 2020…I am tired of glitch goals, crappy ai, crappy goalies etc. Nhl has been an upgrade from previous versions! This does not warrant my money bc they do not listen. I really enjoyed nhl 10 bc it was hard to score because you had to play the point move the puck and had to try different things. Unfortunately ppl were crying it was hard but that made me want to improve. Lastly, ea has no direct competition since 2k sports stopped making nhl games to focus on bball. I remember when 2k had Bob Cole and Harry Neal as actual commentators which was awesome compared to ray Ferraro and the other guy. I don’t think ea will ever get my money for a sports game again…just my thoughts.
I miss the good ole days when they had the cards ranking from rookie to legend and the way you could set your attributes. I also miss the 7 game playoffs in EASHL
YES! So much fun
Unfortunately one of the main issues here is there aren’t any other NHL games coming out these days so EA will continue to get away with it until that changes
No one else can make an NHL game because EA holds the license for NHL video games.
@@Dshivs yeah
@@Dshivs tape to tape. Get it.
the worst part to me is not being able to practice the cool moves in the tutorial sections... you can only do basic stuff. that really is frustrating
huh? I was playing last night doing all the dekes in practice.
I actually would like to have the option to choose your commentators, unlockable teams and player's, also I want EA to bring back the intro to the game (like NHL 2000 with the live action/CGI while "Push it" by Garbage is playing).
It honestly pisses me off so bad that the game asks you what your favorite team is each year and when you open hockey bags, you may get 1 item for your favorite team and then 1,000 items from other teams before you get another item from your team.
Gameplay feels great dont really care about the other stuff because i mostly play only hut but i understand if it annoys other people
Gameplay is the worst thing about it
@@bmorg5190 well if you dont like it i hope you didnt buy it
@@Kono_L_ I won’t.. I have won it three years in a row on Twitter 😂
Goalies let in too many soft goals
Glad you mentioned them taking out things and putting them back in years later like they are new. They've done the same thing with fifa for years and I'd guess any of their other sports games.
I just used the Michigan as a glitchy snapshot shot last year 🤣 never actually pulled it off but if you would try it in the middle of the ice when you would lower your stick to set it up you could snap it quickly and the shot would be faster then a normal snapshot.
Your literally the first person to say that the woman being added in is cool. Mad respect.
If I don't have any of the previous NHL games is it worth a buy on sale?
Let's make this video more visibility than the other "profesionnal CZcamsrs" that just praise this shitty game. This year is a total ripoff.
First of all. Nice Video. You speak from my soul.
I know that the in-game presentations are skipped by a lot of people. But I loved it. Especially when I went out of the tunnel onto the ice at NHL 09 with my Be a pro player. Unfortunately, this was cancelled at some point. Somehow I don't have much fun with NHL anymore, even though I used to love it. And the gruesome commentator doesn't make things any better. I just want to have an NHL Game again, which I can look forward to... :(
My words, just facts. I am hoping for NHL24 to switch it up a little. They got so many haters this year that they have to feel bad just a little.
I just played the trial version and man! What a disappointment
I think they should add a park feature like NBA 2k does. I think that would be so cool using ur created player and going around different ice rinks and playing games to earn rank and stuff. I think that would make the game more fun and competitive
Not only that but they don’t necessarily let you edit players attributes. Nor do they let players in franchise mode create their own draft class or create a player. But mostly not creating your own draft class and editing attributes or not even that, you can’t even edit an AHL player either. Which is really awful. And also no history section or records or awards sections. Much like Madden, EA does not put a lot of effort into NHL and if anything they put even worse effort on NHL and NHL gets even worse treatment as well.
2:08 that’s so true lol. I will still be buying NHL 23 just because I’ve been playing 17 for a while now, but I can certainly see the frustration.
Is the game still in the trial mode because I bought the game and it says I need to buy it again
I am looking for a new sports game. I’m interested more in the single player career mode and the games nowadays seem to be moving away from this ( NBA, FIFA ). How is the career mode in this one ? Is the draft for real or do you get drafted by your fav, team ? Is the career progression any good ?
Amazing video! Only thing you forgot to mention was the controller vibration glitch with the new gen consoles. Why does it say my vibration is on when it’s not? This has been a big problem forever smh I still can’t figure out how to fix it
Thanks! I feel like I missed a lot of things considering I don’t have the game and people are finding new bugs and glitches since launch. My main point of the video is, they didn’t change or add enough to ask for $100. This year is truly a roster and sound update. I heard there was also a glitch where you lag if your ps5 controller isn’t plugged in. Not even sure how that works 😅
@@TheGritcast nah man you got a lot! It was a awesome video and I understand what you mean completely I wish they would actually listen to the community instead of mocking us smh.
I like your review man, you acknowledge the good and the bad and it’s feel genuine 👍🏾 nhl 23 is basically a nhl 22 updated, the new poke check animation change a little the aspect of the game but it’s really similar I agree
Lol we both enjoyed 20 and 22. Explains why i agree with just about everything u mentioned. My main issue rn is the goalies and ea bailing out teams that cant defend properly. What i mean is teams just skill zone now and if u cycle the puck well with your team and create an open 1t the goalies are saving those way to often but then i come down and shoot a far side snipe and goes in almost everytime. Really other than breakaways and penalty shots its just a far side shootout rn.
Nhl 2006 is legend. It’s insulting they think we wouldn’t notice ?
last puck movement is happening a lot for me in hut very netpicking
call of duty have random pack, apex, rainbow six, fifa, madden,nba
Woukd you guys suggest to buy it for only 40 bucks ?
I remember the older nhl games like 1995 on the 16-bit
What do u mean? I’ve seen last chance puck movement very frequently
EASHL used to actually be fun, but ever since 21/22 it's been nothing but a sweat fest. Not only is it the exact same game as 22, but the same issues still exist with basically zero new features added in. It's sad, but not surprising.
The line and team strategy editing in franchise mode is so dumb now like how do you save it for the whole season not just one game?
just played part of my 10 hours and i already saw a white ref with black hands and the crowd was very pixelated. also they didn’t put goal songs back in which were in like nhl 15. but i did get the anthem presentation while playing as the pens
They also, for all their talk of improving the presentation, removed half of it. Remember how last year you had the "Full Presentation" option that would give you the warm up, goalie comparison, full highlights during games etc and the condensed presentation that just gave you goal highlights and skipped everything else? Well they completely removed the Full Presentation option this year so now even in offline modes you don't get any intros, goalie names/stats, no hit replays, nothing. Just goal replays when you score.
Talking about the features they had years ago and put it, it's like when they reintroduced pre and post game interviews to Be A Pro, which was already a thing they had in the past then removed and didn't even change it, it was the exact same thing as the one they used to have and removed. This year they did nothing with it.
Seriously if you have NHL 22, with roster sharing just wait for someone to do a current roster update and play that, this is absolutely not worth it unless you can get it for like 5 bucks and even then it's hard to justify that.
If you're an online player that plays HUT or ECHL maybe the game might be worth it for you, but if you're an offline player, it really isn't. If anything this game just tells you that what they really want is to do NHL as just a HUT and ECHL only game but know that if they did that and didn't have BAP or Franchise mode in the game that they would lose a hell of a lot of customers.
They do it year after year. This game is a non-option for offline players and I have been on the same EASHL team for 8 years now, we were top 50 in EASHL clubs last year and half the team isn’t getting the game. Theres nothing to be excited about. If you’re a franchise player, theres better options out there like NHL 04 rebuilt for PC and hockey manager (I think thats the name).
For me the best NHL game was 99. Man I loved that game, the way you could tackle and destroy the team. Haven't played in a few years now, felt like they were all the same
Addressing another issue w not being able to cross platform on same team. Not being able to play couch co op against people online is ridiculous. That was my favorite thing back in 2012 or whenever (don't exactly remember the year)
They even still have the same issues as last year, random flickering in the middle of my gameplay on eashl sometimes, games not counting randomly after spending 30 minutes playing, random crashes mid game, freezing after searching for opponent and cancelling won’t work, just little things that were in nhl 22 are still in nhl 23 that wastes so much of people’s time after spending the $100 year after year boggles my mind
Why cant they just release an update for the nhl 22 if its going to be the same. I might buy it just for the use of the Reverse retros 2.0 update
EA did have it somewhere in the wording that only 6 NHL teams would have the presentations so I can't really fault them there. However, they did it in such a way that it was like "read the fine print" that most people missed and got the wrong expectations. I would be fine with it If it didn't come at the cost of being stuck on condensed mode 100% of the time. I also do not like this game on the frostbite engine at all. Yes, there are some graphical upgrades most seen in lighting but I thought the game looked better on the last engine..most recently NHL 21. The game still plays choppy and player physics are weird. I actually did enjoy the cut scene at the very end of when you win the cup your team and it's players get shown on it which is kinda neat but besides that ehh I dunno. It's a lsight upgrade over NHL 22 but that's only because 22 was the worst game I have played in 5 seasons.
These devs hate the players you can tell by the blinding white menu background that players have been begging to be changed for over a year
honestly the nhl should find a new game developer company
I met Rammer and had him sign a copy of NHL 20. My dad is 74 years old and we play in the same EASHL team. Played since 03 and this is the first time we agreed to skip after doing the beta for 23.
if you look closely during the clip where the avalanche are raising the cup, you can see that the banners are STILL outdated, they still have the panthers old logo and the older Senators logo, im pretty sure it would take them literally like, 5 seconds to fix that, any shmuck with photoshop could do it
I'm on PS4 so I guess it's going to suck!
-If the goalie suck bump up difficulty on goaltending sliders, right?
-Is there any International play?
Can you have a tournament of International Teams?
- like with MUT ea pushes HUT which I'm not interested in.
I want to play realistic season/career/ franchise mode AGAINST COMPUTER
* if they ever find a model that works they don't need to ever mess with it again just allow you to update rosters. But no one would buy a new games
Not buying it either. Maybe if they charged 50 or something but $90 for the changes they made? It’s disrespectful af
I wish they’d make a mode you can use rollerblades. Street hockey
I’ve been playing 20 But it’s pretty hard to find people who still play this as far as online goes every once in a while when I search I can find one but a lot of the times even if I do find one the connection sucks so barely wanna even play at that point
Is this still the case or have they updated it, thinking of buying it on ps5 for 40 bucks
It's $27 bucks now.. might have to grab it
The menus have been the same for nhl 20 19 18 and 17 and i think 16 and 15 and maybe 14 also in nhl 22 if your were on ps4 and did not have plus you could not join world of chel and there were offline mode SO WHAT THE DUCK in nhl 22 they added manual line changes ON THE SHOOTING BUTTONS so if i say clicked square or circle on a one timer or just a time when you u wanna pull the puck back for a wrist shot (holding square) it would make you change your line its so annoying when you have a open net
Wait can you play online without xbox game pass
I wish they would implement raising your teams banner after you win the cup, not having it feels like such an empty accomplishment without it.
I do miss the old gen drop in games for you pro, when you could pick what team you wanna use
I don't understand why I can't do a co-op season with a friend where we each pick a position and lock it in.
Ok so i have the nhl 2005 game as a demo, only a select few teams it was fun, but it is on a cd and i want an updated game.
After getting into the nhl Stanley cup playoffs this year I'm wanting to play a hockey game again, thinking of getting EA play so I can play it, so as someone who would be new to the new games would it be ok, especially when i didn't pay the previous games, I thought of 23 because of the "2023 teams"
The fact that they still haven't addressed people quitting online games as soon as they start losing, tell you they could care less about the game. I was over a friend's house tonight and he tried playing games online. 16 games in a row once a team got down by a few goals, people quit and the entire game got cancelled. 16 games in a row! Online play is a huge part of why people spend money on the game. Who enjoys playing half a period 16 times in a row before people quit with no consequences! This could and should of been fixed years ago. I mean, you could simply track which users quit once a game starts and if you do it too often, you're banned from online for a set time period. And I know people will say EA can't tell if they quit or had a glitch with their connection, etc . Tough crap! First, you can definitely tell who actually hits quit, so start there. For those who just disconnect or turn off their system to get around it, well, you get a few of those to use up. But if you're playing online it shouldn't be happening that often enough so you get a few and once you reach say 5, you're banned from online for a week. And you don't need to penalize everyone in the game, they can see which accounts actually lose connection in a game. And since the people who quit are usually the ones that are on a team that starts losing, it's easy to determine which users should be hit with a penalty if they all of a sudden a few accounts are suddenly disconnected during a game when they're losing! It's a joke that they have been afraid to address this and yet it kills their online play. EA could care less though. It's a joke and it's a disgrace how bad things have gotten since the Genesis days of NHL 93, 94 and so on. Just a money grab now.
Man I really feel like this game plays so different than lasr year.. The goalies seem way better and dont let in every single cross crease pass like in 22..
They should add arena specific stuff. All the small things sung by the fans in Colorado, the potvin sucks chant at the garden (even though that should just go away completely) That would really make arenas stand out just as much or more than pregame stuff.
ESPN NHL 2K5 is still the best hockey game in my opinion
Well, why I fully understand those who don't want to buy this years NHL as they really have not given us much more options for let's say Franchise mode, Be A PRO mode, cutomazation of teams and players etc, I will buy it for 3. reasons, even if they are not that big;
1. I have NHL 21, that lacks the Seattle Krakens.
2. The Coyotes have officaly back the old logo and scrapped the boring plain red Coyote. Small but I never liked to play with or against them because they looks major boring.
3. Some of the upcoming reverse-retro jerseys added to all NHL teams.
Like I said, these are just small reasons but I rather buy 23 then 22 to have the most recent. Well after 23 I very much doubt 24 will give me any reason to buy it.
BUT I will try and not pay a full price, as many dollars/cents as possible to shave off. Even 2nd hand copy is fully open, even if I will have to wait a little longer.
what is the fly together update? My son thinks he will be able to play with the Duck characters from the movie but it looks like just the jerseys
My birthday is on Wednesday the only reason I am asking for it is because the teams other than that I don’t think they tried to change anything
My birthday is October 19th as well! Happy birthday!!!
Please tell me why they removed hat throwing and visible injuries from fights from chel 21 to chel 22 to begin with...
The last NHL game I got was 2017. Also as a leafs fan I havent had a NHL game for at least 5 years now but I would like to try this. But I love the information you are giving about the game.😁😁
didn't they disprove the glove thing? in slow motion it shoes the puck going above the glove
The problem now is there's NO SKILL. Your only good because you have a stacked hut team filled with attribute boosts. Your only good because of heatseeker or 1t. It's sad everyone sucks so must they have to add boosts to help you score. Play anyone "good" in hut then play them in ranked and see how bad they suck and how much they rely on boosts.
Same broadcasters to switch it up say if your playing the Bruins jack and brick and Wednesday night rivalry another thing to why can't they add pre game like what NBA 2k does breakdown of that night's game and the matchups yk
i think the huge problem is that ea has zero competition when it comes to nhl or madden for that matter, it would be great if another studio could get their hat in the ring and push some innovations, but sadly this is all us hockey fans have. probably won’t buy but it will be in game pass sooner than later
