Agree 100%


Can't have Next Gen games and not have this option available

I have a question regarding this topic. So when you go to edit players in be a gm, can you edit a prospects potential?

I not too sure about this year's installment for editing players ratings IN gm mode, but if you wanted to edit players you had to go to the creation center. I hope that answered your question.


And 'yes', you can edit potential.

Can you edit players names? I would love to create historic seasons.

Thanks for your response. I have played nhl games forever but never have edited players so was curious about editing potential

Yeah, editing potentials is a good idea. A lot of gaming companies don't put too much thought into ratings.

Great job by EA for pointlessly taking out a feature that's been prominent in every sports game for over a decade now, and re-adding it a year later.

Yup and threads like this one are exactly why EA is able to continue all of the anti-consumer practices we have all come to know and love. They know that they can get away with removing major features of a game that are pretty much a standard with any other developer because they know everyone will come crawling back to them, wallet in hand, as soon as they make an announcement like the one we see here.

While I do agree with everyone that it is very good news that we are getting edit player back, I think everyone should still have a little skepticism before making a buying decision and making any preorders. We have not yet seen actual gameplay footage and have been fooled by EA before.

At the end of the day, this is great news for the series and the fans. I really appreciate that they actually listened to what people had to say this time. I just hope people have a little patience to see how everything is implemented and how the game plays before praising EA like they just cured cancer.
