Yeah can anyone confirm what this "various speech improvements" means?

Are any of the rookies called by name yet? Still can't believe how this can occur in a game promoting "the kids."

Nice list but I often wonder why they do not just delay the release and make sure this stuff is in then. They clearly didn't whip up this enormous patch in4 days so they new all these things were wrong to begin with. At least they put out.

Every penalty in eashl 3vs3 is now a penalty shot. Poke checks are now flying down the ice like a Weber clapper and goalies are more abysmal than ever. Great job ea

Wow that's an impressive list!

Looking forward to testing out the AI logic on breakaways.

Thanks Stevie!

Because if you assume the patch was done, and ready to ship now, it'd probably be another like three weeks from now for production, and distribution before they could get the game on shelves if they had waited (not to mention I believe certification for a patch is a shorter process than a game, so if they had waited for this patch to be complete, it would probably be closer to a month from now).

So their options are to release on September 15, and patch on September 18, or hold the release until like mid-October.

Can you revert back to the previous tuner in this game or does it overwrite tuner 1.00?

I have not tried the tuner and patch yet for this game. But, in years past I liked Madden and NHL when they first came out, then the patch changed the gameplay, and I found the games no longer fun to play. I hope this is not the case here. Also, just when you get sliders going like you want them they change it all up. I sometimes wish they would just leave well enough along other than adding options and fixing gamebreaking things.

EASHL 3s is now a penalty shot fest? Why in gods name did they do this? Guess its time to stop playing this garbage until they take that out. What a moronic decision
