Martin Brodeur's Authentic Mask is in NHL 13 and Why Some Others Won't Be






Due to licensing deals to secure the rights for authentic masks for NHL 13, not all of them can be included. Those rights are normally held by the artist, not the goalie.

As stated in the NHL 13 blog...

Quote:
Often, the artist has used imagery that is fine to use in an artistic manner, but not for a licensed product. For example, Peter Budaj’s mask features Lionel Messi and Ned Flanders from the Simpson. The fact that licensed imagery is included in the design would prevent us from ever being able to recreate the mask in-game.

Aaaaaaah! That is FREAKING awesome! We can only hope that they have more!

I wish they made it where we can make our own goalie masks. Kind of like the way that games (NCAA Football I believe) have allowed for custom logos on helmets.

Re: Brodeur’s Authentic Mask in NHL 13

Authentic masks were in NHL 97 on the PC. It would be nice if they could get that license back.

No doubt! I'd really like to see authentic masks. I wonder what happens if a goalie gets traded though?

This was leaked a couple months ago before Marty resigned with Devs. Would have been a waste if he went elsewhere lol.

Re: Brodeur’s Authentic Mask in NHL 13

Hmm, seems a bit late to just now realize this given how long Marty's been around -- I guess the old adage of "better late than never" applies here. Meanwhile though, their answer at the bottom of the post seems to imply that they still haven't caught on to the concept of just licensing the mask designs that incorporate the team assets and/or original art only, and adding those to the game so that we have more than the lackluster two designs per team to choose from.

*sigh* Well, we can hope that this made them realize that they haven't added any new NHL mask designs in like 5 years, and gets them to add at least two additional selections to each team's collection.

Finally people realize that goalie masks have to be licensed, and you can't just put them into the game.
