lol and this is the reason why i don't bother with it.

Lol good lord I can only imagine what kind of teams and bs is on there now.. I only played that mode once and that was to beat someone online to unlock a boost.

I find the versus play to be just ok.

Aside from some of the obvious problems, I think the 5 minute periods are partially to blame. I'd love to see ranked games a little longer(7-10mins) with the game speed turned down a notch.

THe biggest issue is that their is no player seperation, and the game gets very undynamic, so it´s easy to play an almost trapera style, and to that all cheesing with the stick down in the offensive zone, pokespamming etc. It´s all a game of collapse net and build a meatwall.

Although HUT is prone to levelling up all rosters, a mixed team with starts with slots and scrubs with unused slot really show how much more dynamic the game gets, and way more like a real game of today.

VS as it is, is more like trapstyleera hockey , like 95. And the hitting in VS mode feels like its turned all the way up. Absurd boardplay.
