Manual Line Changes???

[wyldbunch]

I can't do it, no menu will pop up no matter what I push in game....Anybody else have this issue. Am I missing something? All my settings are on for manual line changes in my franchise(I believe). Have played NHL for years. Did I miss a memo? lol

On the PS4 I only play online but the controls for this haven't changed. Square button changes Defense and Circle button changes Offense.

Thanks, that is what I figured. I will have to recheck all the settings.

Well, this is frustrating. I have tried every setting and game play level imaginable and still cannot do a manual line change. It will automatically cycle through my lines but I canot for the life of me try to match lines or swap them to what I want.

Sigh, even tried the old uninstall, reinstall trick. No difference. I give up. Super frustrating!

If I remember right, there's a "Manual Change, Auto and None" setting someplace. I can't remember exactly where it is in the game, but I want to say I think it's in the game setup menu before you start the actual play.

Are you positive in the game settings menu that you have line changes set to manual? That is the only thing I can thing of that could be set wrong.

100 percent I have checked all spots. Both in the main menu and in the one right before the game (where you edit lines etc) and I cannot do it manually. It just seems to automatically rotate through my lines with my 4th line rarely out there. Sometimes I would put that line out there to try and get something going, but can't seem to anymore.

Re: Manual Line Changes???

When you guys go to make your changes(pressing o or square) does the little line menu pop up? Mine doesn't, thus I don't believe I can manually change to who I want. Again, all settings appear to be correct in every menu I can find.

First time in years I have had a problem like this playing NHL.

Re: Manual Line Changes???

Yes, the window pops up so you can see which lines you are selecting.

Re: Manual Line Changes???

Sigh...that is what I thought. Will continue to search menus and reasons why it isnt poping up for me.

Re: Manual Line Changes???

I can't test at the moment, but I have been using Hybrid controls. Just read that you can't line change with Hybrid controls. Well, this will solve the issue if true...Will test later today/tonight.

Re: Manual Line Changes???

Success!! Have tested and it was indeed the hybrid controls cancelling it out.

Thanks for the help guys. Helped me narrow it down.
