Holding the butterfly button during faceoffs isn't just superstition, it's also good planning.

Yup, that was my point  . If you're square to the faceoff and you're already down, you're probably not going to juke around like a computer trying to do whatever it is that AI goalies try to do in that situation.

I lost a game 8-2 just a little while ago and came here for advice. I'm glad I am not the only one having problems being beaten repeatedly by crease to slot passes. The advice everyone was giving a few pages back seems super helpful. I don't really have anything to add, other than the AI in this game is one of the most infuriating things I've ever experienced. Apparently I am so pissed off that I desperately need the internet to know how mad I am.

Favourite EASHL build? Playmaker/PWF seem to be the most popular. Grinder is fun too. Hits like a truck. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DF2lZyK7ReU Skating is good. Deking is decent if you stick to the quick dekes. Bonus: Horsejizz scoring the go ahead goal right after I took a 5 min major. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDVmaQl_syc

Online input lag may be because EA is inadvertently routing data through Ireland On EASHL game 3 after putting in the fix and no lag so far. Game is still bad, though.

Hey you fuckhead coach, thanks for making my RW have a team goal of winning faceoffs that I can never achieve unless my center is in the box and its a 4v3 PK. How has this game not been patched yet?

They communicated with fans and made all kinds of initiatives like the game changers when the game was at hype building phase before launch. After it launched and they got their money you were left on your own with a broken game and they were no where to be seen. It took, I think, about a month for them to acknowledge that yes maybe the game might be having some lag issues and even then it was just the EASHL home team captain lag not that all the other modes lag too.

I'm having a lot of trouble keeping possession in versus. There just don't seem to be a lot of passing lanes and the stuff I remember working in 15 just isn't there. Can you guys throw me some general tips?

I find if you just try and fling the puck blindly forward all the time you're going to get it picked 9/10 times.

Soft Shell Crab posted:Learn and use the saucer pass a lot. Like all the time. Alternatively, I don't think I've ever used the saucer pass other than a tool to do a soft dump in as a streaking winger in EASHL. You can definitely own possession without it. Try fiddling with the various breakout options using the D-pad (I personally like stay wide). Also don't be afraid to go D to D and if you see a pass option take it even if it doesn't put you that much further up the ice. Whenever you are making the D have to adjust to east to west movement you will start opening lanes. The other thing I would say about passing this year is it is very dependent on how long you hold R2. I honestly believe the game will give you a boost in accuracy if the length of time you hold R2 is directly proportional to the distance the skater is away from you. If you are a D on the goal line and your center is just in front of you breaking out through the slot just flick R2 and you'll get it to him, if you're a D in the faceoff circle and the far side winger is streaking hold down R2 for a long time. The game will punish you for holding R2 a long time for short passes and vice versa.

Using saucer in the offensive zone is pointless since it takes so long to charge and the accuracy is bad. It's good for dumps and it's good for long breakouts and board banks.

Maybe I use it now just because of old habit and don't really know NHL 16 passing system that well but it at least used to be pretty useful. On 2 on 1 rush getting the puck through defender when he is trying to block the passing line can be done with saucer when it was almost impossible with normal pass. You could also do some creative plays because it goes where you point it and gets there over sticks often enough, so stuff like pass from end boards near goal to defender at blueline through the middle worked pretty well when normal pass wouldn't have any hope. Charging takes time so it's less useful against overly aggressive opponents. Plus it's used in real hockey all the time but that doesn't really matter here.

Never stop Punching.™ In all seriousness the best thing to do is just hold L2 and wait for an opening, than start laying down punches.

Can you guys throw me some general tips? If people are aggressively coming at you then hold X/A like a mad person, change direction a lot to shake people, and wait for lanes to open up. This game basically hates you for attempting to pass in the offensive zone, or out of the defensive zone, it's really hard to make a series of quick passes but if you're patient lanes will open up. If you need to make more direct short passes try deking/pushing the stick out to the side before passing to get around checkers. If you're playing online a lot remember that you can use the boards to cycle, people get really focused on the middle. Also don't go all out on the left stick all the time, if you let up and glide a bit you can be more accurate and make quicker side to side movements.

I once took only sure or almost sure passes in nhl 15. It really worked well at least in that game but I got bored of holding the protect puck button and slowly went to my old ways of passing as much as possible. this from EA forums: quote:my sources are giving me the impression that EA are still on the wrong tracks (as of yesterday) even with this information & data that's been provided.

Are there any Goon XBone clubs that are potentially accepting members? My buddy and I are currently in a club with just us and it's fun but I miss playing with more people. Also the computer is moronic. A lot of the old PS3 guys can vouch I'm not a total plug on the ice. I play mostly LW and currently C if that fills any needs.

Playing legacy edition, be a pro. Any coach options that are preferable to others? I won't be changing on the fly, just want something standard. Thanks edit: and also, wth are boost packs? they're consumed so it's better to save them for the playoffs or whatever. The playmaker is unlocked on my be a pro-pro. Is this some kind of scammy bs where the're trying to get you to buy stuff? 8-Bit Dracula fucked around with this message at 18:58 on Nov 5, 2015 |
