NHL 16 Goalie Update - Breakdown, Speculation, Comments.

[betweenthepipes]

I cover everything you need to know about the goalie updates.

I take all of the information provided on the EA website, ask EA, game changer posts on the EA forums, and info from other sources and pack it in to one tidy little video.

Topics covered -
- New controls, speculating how they will be implemented.
- "Control vs Commit" - what that means.
- The three goalie classes (hybrid, stand up, butterfly)

I'm very glad to hear some news from EA regarding improvements to goalies; my only concern is that it all seemed to revolve around user-controlling them. I'm wondering whether these changes will be universal improvements to goalie movement or simply just an improvement in terms of user-controlling them.

Admittedly I only care about the human aspect of playing goalie, but I understand your concern.

Hopefully the animations are clean for CPU goalies.

I'm still worried about how hugging the post will be handled -_- I hate how it is now.
