This game loving sucks and unless you are part of our autist eashl collective on Xbox you should not buy this game under any circumstances.

I just want to be part of a team, even if it is autists and a Guy Fieri cosplayer.

The wave of emails just came out for people that were Insiders, but opted out of marketing emails. They/We were skipped over yesterday.

So, if anybody needs a Bone code, AJ and I have 6 between us.

I have another 3 Xbone codes as well.

Does the beer league rink have one girlfriend sitting alone in the bleachers reading a book the whole time? It would be amazing if when you scored, it cut to her and she just sat there wicked bored and not paying attention.

I'm used to seeing the opposite. The girlfriend goes to the game and is a crazy fan, excited by everything her boyfriend does and pissed off at any rough play against him.

Have they added a feature to effectively move your stick around on the defensive side of things? Holding LT in NHL 2K4 allowed you to move your stick around freely with the right stick while in the defensive zone. It made up for the difficulty of translating the minor positioning corrections seen in real hockey to a video game and was such a useful and intuitive feature that it boggles my mind that it hasn't been put in any of the EA games yet. You can sorta do it by holding the left bumper but you a) blindly pokecheck first and b) it only sorta wildly swings in the direction you want it.

Also icon passing, that was the poo poo.

Basically please bring back NHL 2K 2K.

The aiming a poke check feature existed in NHL at one point. I forget which version, but I remember using it a lot in EASHL and then it disappeared probably because people (like myself) would just start swinging wildly and tripping everyone for fun. Then they took out vision control and gave it back, albeit a retarded version of it.

I'm enjoying this years version a lot. Been playing a lot of drop in EASHL games.

:stare: This combination of words confuses me greatly.

So far I've somewhat enjoyed it but I seem to be the rare person on The Neighborhood due to my ability to score and assist on the most ridiculous goals.

Right. The meltdown needs to actually end before another meltdown can begin.

For real though. If you play NHL 17 on XBox One, we need more people for sba to berate and blame for losses.

it's still a hunk of poo poo because there's zero incentive for EA to truly fix the game, but it's definitely more fun than recent years and worth $10

Is it worth $10 to play with you?





no
