*** disclaimer. My take on this is from an OFFLINE guy. ***
If someone from EA reads this, a huge CONGRATULATIONS from myself. In a world where it’s so easy to point fingers, I have to give credit when credit is due. In my eyes, NHL25 will be remembered as a cornerstone in the franchise as was NHL2004 and NHL2014.
Is the game perfect ? No. But we are getting there with the new addition and changes in the gameplay department. This new team at the helm are going in the right direction.
For people that know me, they know that I've put some 1000 hours on NHL23 to make the game play like I wanted to. Player edits after player edits and hours and hours of testing. Always trying to replicate the real game. I also went as far as creating a roster and slider set to play a full 60 ! We had to do something with these DMen, lol !
When NHL24 arrived, it was like a nightmare for me. Won't dwell on the past, we'll focus on the positives. 😀
NHL25 took me by surprise to be honest.
First as a slider creator and a guy that puts so many hours "under the hood", it was a very pleasant surprise to see so many sliders actually work this year. Since you guys are very quiet in that department, we had to find out by ourselves.
The new animations, the ability to remove onscreen stuff, the new graphics, the new replays cameras, especially the new vision control and the gameplay improvement in general combined with working sliders are HEAVEN to a hockey freak like myself !
The more and more I play the game, the more and more I see little nuances that you might miss if you don’t give it enough time.
You guys did a wonderful job and you should pat yourselves on the back !
CONGRATS ! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Now, please for the love of god, if you guys decide to make changes to the gameplay because of HUT people, can you do a separate tuner for OFFLINE and ONLINE ? Please 🙏
HOCKEY IS BACK BABY !
