EA has once again provided a beta for its NHL product, allowing eager fans a chance to partake in some HUT, EASHL, OTP and online versus play for
NHL 17. The specific modes I've been checking out in particular are EASHL and OTP.
The biggest change teased in this beta is the inclusion of customization features for both your player and your team’s arena. The idea is that you’ll unlock new gear, celebrations, goal songs and arena details as you play games -- allowing you to spec out your team in a way that’s more distinct than in previous years. The arena editor seems particularly robust, facilitating the customization of seat patterns, scoreboards, ice logos, goal spotlights and many other details. It’s also nice, at this stage, to see an editor that lets you preview these changes quicker than something like the WWE 2K series, which often takes a bit of time to load up new elements for arenas and the like. Also welcome is the ability to float around in your custom arena when you’re all done, checking out sightlines and colors.
