Re: Attribute Effects

My testing is done.. Attributes Effects set on 10/10 is a game changer for me and has really refreshed the game playing my Blues franchise.

Unlike last year without messing with this slider, Schwartz is my leading goal scorer and not Brodziak, Pietrangelo is a beast on D, my young guys make rookie mistakes and must be in a good position to score goals, Bortuzzo takes a fair share of penalties, etc..

I fear snipers and guys with a heavy shot, have trouble when speed is on the ice, have to work hard against good goalies to screen or tip in goals. I'm also conscious when Tarasenko is on the ice and work to get him the puck as he's much more dangerous like he should be.

Maybe the new ratings help with this setting as well but I'm thoroughly enjoying the game right now.

New ratings? Did you adjust the default ratings for the players?

I think he means the fact that EA has spread out the ratings more.

Re: Attribute Effects

I’ve only played a few with it at 10, but as stated in your slider thread I’m seeing a big difference in top lines and bottom 6 lines. I’m glad you started messing with this.

IMO this helps out big time playing the game with shorter periods as well. 7 mins instead of 8,9, or 10 for me work. Possibly 6 min periods as well (with use of 2 for PP scaling).

Here's the million dollar question; is it the same for the CPU? Or are its players still playing above their pay grade?

It works for CPU as well. I’ve seen wide open yawning nets missed, puck mishandled on dekes, and skating away from CPU with a faster player and them not warping to catch up.

Exactly.. this new rating layout seems to work well with the maxing out of the AE slider.
