Re: NHL 12 Full Game Impressions

Looking forward to your impressions Cup.
If you can, please list a few of the goals you've seen scored. I want to see how the CPU is able to score, and if the players who are scoring them are accomplishing it according to their attribute sets.

Re: NHL 12 Full Game Impressions

First of all i have to say im positive impressed!

I think the DEMO is not near the Full Retal Game.

What i love is the FEEL of the Game, it feels smooth, the animations are smooth and the Puck Physics way better then it was in NHL 11.

Puck Physics, ice friction ect. was one of the best things on 2K Hockey games. EA is not sp far away of it with NHL 12 now. Still a lot of omprovements to made, but for now its EA´s best NHL Game.

Deking is slower but i like it more cause now u cant deke like Mickey Mouse on Speed. way more realistic on my mind.

if u try to deke like crosby/ovechkin ect. with an d-man like Chara- u loose the puck very often-that are the little details i looooove....

So next Game will be my first SEASON Game and i ll test if the settings (and Custom Camera) will safe.

Thanks Cup!
I shouldn't have said to 'list' some nice goals you've seen.
I'd be more than happy to read an explanation than see a video too. No need to do all that work.

Thanks for the initial impressions. I look forward to hearing more.
Thanks!

Re: NHL 12 Full Game Impressions

Did Stanley Cup pathes make it in this year?

Also, can you list any NHL rinks you encounter that don't have a wordmark sourounding center ice? (as in there is just a giant center logo and no letters circling it)

Re: NHL 12 Full Game Impressions

Does it still say New York Arena for the NYR in the full game?
