I just played my first few games this morning and I am absolutely in love with this tuner. Goodbye spam poke checkers hello better game logic.

May I ask if you played offline or on?
Thanks!

Can you setup private drop-in game and then switch to public on XB1 now?

The new energy color for BaP is more green to. I like it.

I've played both. I'm playing BaP at the moment. The coaching feed back is better. It's easier now to get your grade higher or in the passing color.
I'd like to add that spam poke checking on the PS4 offline doesn't appear to slow me down. That could be that I'm playing in the CHL right now with very low attributes.
Also, it is now confirmed that Ronda Rousey is in the game.

I just played a few more games. 2 on default then went back to my sliders and played one. I seem to get one if two types of game. I get one that the CPU is very passive, no penalties, and the CPU dumps a lot instead of that skate back with the puck until they can enter garbage. The other type the CPU plays aggressive, I get penalties, but the CPU dumps less. I could live with latter. There is good in this update I can't put my finger on it but some things just feel better. I still believe that much like the sliders when EA tunes or updates this game by fixing one thing something else gets affected and often not in a positive way. When I said the Dev team was in over their heads I meant that they are trying to tune an AI that's fatally flawed. It's not their fault and I should have been more clear they are trying to help and work with what they have. Unless the powers that be allow them to rebuild the AI from scratch all they can do is try and tune this up the best they can and it's never, in it's current state be what it should be. If I can find away to eliminate that odd game where the CPU goes into passive mode I will be happy.

One thing I've noticed that feels better is I can beat the computer on board play now. And also poke check them a lot easier now. Its about where it should be for poke checking Computers & even stick lift seems to work on the computer a lot better now. Like how it would on a player.

BTW, small but nice fix is editing players and not having their draft info change.
