The lack of gameplay improvements are worrisome..

This sounds so solid!

Re: NHL 16 Features
"Superstar Authenticity"? How about instead of making sure Crosby has the right helmet, you actually give him the proper attributes and skills so that Crosby doesn't play like the other 35 skaters on the ice.Comment

I just want to hear doc and high pitched voice when it warrants. The atmosphere stuff makes me giddy.

Re: NHL 16 Features
So does that mean that the attribute system is gone?
Almost sounds like you create your EASHL player, then pick from one of the pre-determined player types.
If so, I kinda like that. No glitch builds or attributes.Comment

Re: NHL 16 Features
It sounds as if it's one of two systems: (1) 100% skill based aka pick a player template and roll, or (2) fifa where again you pick a player template that has different base stats (playmaker higher passing etc.) and your height/weight affect speed+strength, and if you say score 5 goals from far distance you gain +3 shot power. This is just an example based on how I understand it works in FIFA.
Both systems would be better than the old progression / grind for cards system, so I'll be happy with either or!Comment

Re: NHL 16 Features
Hard to tell from the wording, but is this implying that OTP will only be with NHL players and not our created players? That is my main question. Will be severely disappointed if that should be the case.
Everything else is just rewording the hype of reintroducing modes and features that were in NHL 14. So I will refrain from excitement or anger until we hear, or see, more.Comment

Re: NHL 16 Features
Not bad, but advertising 6v6 team play seems a bit odd. It's not like it's a earth shattering breakthrough seeing that it was an expected feature on the last gen systems. Hopefully the AI will get some more upgrades. Authentic odd man rushes would be a good start.Pittsburgh the "City of Champions"Comment

Re: NHL 16 Features
These are the marketing key points on features. Until I see gameplay videos etc. these are just words.

Re: NHL 16 Features
To be fair, a lot of gameplay improvements might not necessarily be included in "features". I think of a feature is a more tangible thing where gameplay which is AI driven is more under the hood. Not saying they will definitely address the gameplay AI issues, but just because it doesn't show up in this unofficial list doesn't mean they haven't touched it.----------------------

Re: NHL 16 Features
I am still skeptic about these features....player and team differentiation? Somehow, I think this is just a ploy of EA to win people back from their abysmal show of NHL 15.
I still need to see the comments of OS'ers before opening my wallet on this game.Comment
