      Someone please tell me they changed the pre game edit lines screen and I don't have to scroll through the entire ****ing team and take 200 years to change everyone around. Please.

        I don't see a setting where you can change the game speed, wish I can slow it down, just a little bit more!!!

        @Meep316 much easier, but it's similar to previous version

              Couple of things:

              1. That guy's voice is the worst and he's awful at the game. The way he plays is everything that is wrong with everything with this series.

              2. His first goal was one of those wrong side one timers that should be a simple re-direct instead of a rocket shot, looks awful, but I'm glad the puck sort of ricocheted out of the net like that. I just don't want that shot to be strong, because it's not. You can't get that kind of power behind a shot like that in real life, nobody can, it looks terrible and has been something I've always hated in these games.

              3. The shot speed is great. People have complained saying it looks like lightning, that's how it is supposed to look. These guys fire the puck in real life, even on snapshots. That has never been represented well in EA NHL games until now.

                    Thank ****ing GOD. That was the bare minimum I was asking for. I mean it is still utterly inexcusable if we can't edit our lines and save them for online play, but I'll take this. Thank you. Rant avoided (thank god because I didn't want to type up everything I was going to type up).

                        I love the commentary.. maybe it's because it's something new, but to me, they seem more engaged in the game play.

                        The new dynamic medium camera is great. I think the arenas and graphics in general are fantastic. I don't think you can get much from watching a video.

                        I played on AS with authentic puck and shadow.. game is fast and I'm finding it difficult to keep the puck in the zone. I've played the NHL series to death and to me, the CPU players are all over my butt when I have the puck.

                        Played 4 games, lost 1 in regulation, lost 1 in a shootout, then won 3-1 and 2-1.

                        Game looks crisp to me and the goal horns are fantastic this year.

                            This is good to hear and it's already been said a couple times by people so far. I think a better more aggressive AI could help take away some of the pain from the easy entry issue.

                                Game looks great, presentation is fantastic but something is off. On All-Star once i get the puck i can charge up to the net without and resistance from the CPU defense.
