Good god I can't play EASHL / online modes with the stock settings anymore. It feels soooo loving slow like my dudes are skating in sand. If I bump the speed up a significant amount (and checking) then Threes™ becomes *GASP* almost entertaining

Turdsdown Tom posted:boy oh boy I can't wait to skip out on this year's edition of "lose the puck in your skates and never complete a pass" simulator AI Defenseman collects puck around mid ice: immediately skates straight down in an attempt to stuff the puck in his own net. How is that STILL in the game after all these years?

Why people still, or ever, paid actual real live moneys for EA access is still a thing that continues to blow my mind

Kragger99 posted:BAP seems to be pretty much identical to last year, which is disappointing, though the color customization for skate laces/tape doesn't seem to be working yet (probably a bug). Nah that's coming back in the next generation console as a New Feature lol they can't even CTRL-C -> CTRL-V old code right

They probably took it out. I remember trying to do it the other night and nyoooope. Also they somehow broke most/all of their same old animations and made the puck physics waaaaay the gently caress weirder. Glad I didn't pay for this poo poo it's noticeably worse than last year

Pleads posted:They did an engine "overhaul" (it was primarily graphics aka lipstick on a pig, still no Frostbite) like, 3+ years ago? When the new consoles came out? Flappy jerseys and diffused light earlobes! ...what a banner year. I remember the next year when they touted "hey guys, we made the collision boxes for the puck puck-shaped finally! That's right, you've been playing with a puck-shaped sphere this whole time!"

Doctor Butts posted:Man all the player graphics (jerseys/gear) look muddy and I went into my first EASHL drop-in and I swear to god it looked like I was playing The Sims You have to buy 300 HUT packs before you can get the 720p models and texture pack

Ginette Reno posted:EA makes their game so fuckin slow too. Playing it is like watching a bunch of squirt players skating around with everyone being slow and unable to turn. I know you can change the tuners but if you play online you're stuck with the poo poo tuners they like. This, right here, is pretty much I play only be a pro/franchise anymore. EASHL feels like molasses and I always get that awful rubber banding internet lag. Ones mode and updated threes is kinda fun but it does get a bit annoying that the goalie will play out of his mind on your break aways and then one of the other dudes can just shoot a limp wrist from 30 feet out and it sails right in

ThinkTank posted:The next generation of consoles are due to be released in 2020. NHL 20 and 21 are going to be bare bones roster updates while they focus on making any significant changes for PS5 and the new Xbox. [cue duke throwing his head back and commencing with uproarious laughter] It's all about removing features from previous iterations, then installing them back in later as NEW FOR 20XX: FLAPPY JERSEYS AND TRANSLUCENT EARS!!! ALSO THE PUCK GEOMETRY IS FINALLY A PUCK AND NOT A BALL!!!

Apparently the Beta for this is out now - don't know if it's beta-code only or full public yet tho

first impression: looks like they spent most of their time creating new texture swaps for Chel clothing and the navigation for said menus is even worse and more convoluted. jesus christ there's like 5000 hats now that are all locked, of course, to be randomly doled out via loot bags.

Oh it's first to 7 OR time limit. Good job (not) explaining that ea Also the interaction between Not-Doc and Ray Ray is good but, yeah, he's not the best announcer. Still, it's not the worst. The lighting and ice textures have been improved so uhh they got that going for them. Skating doesn't "feel" different but they definitely smoothed out some of the transition animations Duke Chin fucked around with this message at 08:05 on Jul 28, 2019 |

lol loving come on. In pure, naked buzzword advertising: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAeoWd_ga1w&t=284s They found a way to shoe-horn in MERELY the phrase "Battle Royale Mode" to try and lure the Fortnite'esque crowd when it literally isn't a "battle royale" in the slightest bit. It's just 3 or 6 person matchmade instances (the ones/threes tourneys)

Got it for my birthday in early November. finally loaded it up in mid December realized "gently caress they really didn't change a goddamn thing except make the only fun parts (threes, ones) way way worse" uninstalled it like 2 hours later.

Flaggy posted:I still play 3's in NHL 19 and consistently get games. I think alot of people avoided 20. They changed how you play / matchmake in Threes™ & Ones™ in 20 on a fundamental level and it's stupid as hell.
