    Re: NHL 20 Will Feature 33 Playable Alumni Teams - Available in Play Now & Franchise

    The stupidest thing on here is people asking us questions like "will we able to do _______" if we knew, it would be in the OP. Shush.

      Sure they added stick sweep, improved skating, and now signature shots but not one of those things changed the fact that the AI is flat out bad. None of it has changed the fact that a 4th line scrub will play almost exactly like all these alumni greats.
      I’m not saying some of these additions through the years aren’t good but the core gameplay is flat out bad and a poor representation of the sport we all love. Legacy issues abound, feedback from the community ignored, the same wandering clueless AI, and once again every player and every team will feel exactly the same. That’s what people are tired of.


      Couldn't have said it any better myself. Spot on!

      The playable alumni teams doesn't change my purchasing decision at all. If these issues (noted above) are not fixed or improved I'm not buying this game anymore. EA you have lost another customer. Congratulations!

        Let's all write to Gary Bettman and let him know what we think of this half-fast efforts from EA over the years. I'll bet if the NHL gets some feedback/complaints they'd listen.

          I wouldn’t count on that. Gary Bettina has been a plague to the NHL destroying our sport a little each year. He probably loves EA and their warped view of NHL hockey

            Do people realize this is a video game and not real life,no video game emulates real life.If you want real life lace them up and grab a stick.Relax and enjoy the game if you don't enjoy it don't buy it.

              Admittedly they are adding old uniforms here, but that aside, are “added features” like legacy teams the real reason we can’t have roster sharing?

              i.e. - they want to save that concept for themselves and pass it off as “added value”

                  Nobody is expecting it to. But, we all know it has been closer to real life in the past specifically in gameplay and strategy.

                  IE: NHL 09-Legacy.
                  NFL- Green Bay Packers
                  NCAA- Florida State Seminoles
                  NHL- Carolina Hurricanes

                    Just hope you substitute all the teams like NBA 2k and not just one.That would be pointless.

                          Instead of screenshots of these classic teams and players why don't you show us some actual gameplay video of this EA? Oh wait nevermind that wouldn't be a good idea. There is no differentiation between the players in this game anyways. Everyone is going to be playing the same. lol.

                          Da fcuk out of here with dat shiet EA...

                            I'm sorry but nobody in the head office is looking at metacritic scores and reviews....... They get the license money, end of story. The comment about suing for breach of fiduciary duty made me laugh.......

                            The NHL uses the game for marketing, nothing else.

                              This may be the 90s kid in me, but they need to be wearing the Robo Penguin jerseys.
