Will there be new moves/dekes added to NHL 16 ? There was very little variety in NHL 15.
Yes. We have added new moves as well as updated the controls to ensure greater consistency and control when attempting the moves. The mechanic does a better job of giving you control over your stick and skates so that you can toe drag and finish straight, further out to the side or even cut back the other way depending on the way you drag with your right stick and the direction you are headed with your left stick. The same goes for moves from your backhand side. Along with these updates we also looked at the consistency of stride dekes to ensure you weren't triggering them by accident but still able to use them in the right situations.
Will Rogers arena have the stanchion lights?
Yes. Our rendering team did a great job with this feature. We also have authentic animation patterns and coloring for intros and goal events in NHL 16.
Will we have the ability to edit player ratings in NHL 16?
Yes this is something we have added to NHL 16. There is more information about it here.
Do you have the New York Islanders "Yes Yes Yes" crowd chant after they score a goal in NHL 16?
Yes! Yes! Yes we do!
As said there will be unique parts of a stadium, such a lighthouse in Minnesota. Will there be unique goal songs as well? Much like Chelsea dagger in Chicago?
For NHL 16 we do have the lighthouse in Minnesota and we've been fortunate to license many authentic goal songs this year including Chelsea Dagger for Chicago. We’ll have more information about other team goal songs coming soon.
Will Chelsea Dagger be played when the Blackhawks score a goal?
Yes Chelsea Dagger will be played when the Blackhawks score in NHL 16. We are doing our best this year to get goal moments for each team as authentic as possible. We’ll have more information about presentation features for other teams as we get closer to launch.
Are there any right-stick only dekes, or can auto-deke do everything?
In NHL 16 we have expanded the right stick deking system from NHL 15 to correspond with what you are doing with your left stick/skating motion. This gives you control of what you want to do with your stick and your skates separately. For example, you can toe drag with the right stick and select what direction you want to go with the left stick.
