Tuning Update

[MizzouRah]

Does this just automatically download? I think I remember the first one doing that.


Thanks!!!

I got a message as soon as I hit the main menu, "New tuner set available! Hit X to download." And it downloads in like 3 seconds.

I'm going to avoid going into details on the specifics of exploit goals until I see how well they work out. The changes should definitely help, but may not be enough to completely eliminate them. There's are also another couple of cases that we are looking at fixing.

I play online 1v1 almost exclusively, and so far the exploit goals are very low compared to 09's pre-patches.

That said there are a few and I'm sure this patch will address them.

I enjoying the hell out of 10 and thats with just the 1st tuning set....i played 670 or so online games last year and I think I'll easily crush that this year. I'm at over 100 so far this year I think.

To keep it fresh online I pick teams alphabetically starting with Anaheim and Atlanta and making my way down to Toronto, Vancouver and Washington.

You get some wild match-ups for sure. Funny hough how everyone is a pens fan this year huh?

Seems more varied gameplay with the second tuning update.

can someone please confirm if these "tuner" settings are applied to online 1 vs 1 matches?

You don't have to restart a BEAGM mode for this update to take affect do ya? Just want to be sure.

CPU goalies are more stick savvy.

I can't remember where I saw it but I believe online 1v1 matches will always use the latest tuner set. I haven't played for a couple of days but I look forward to trying some games with the new tuner settings tonight.
