Firstly, that trailer gave me absolute chills.

Secondly, hell freaking yes. Everything on that list is so needed and will freshen up this game greatly. I am absolutely pumped that it sounds like it's a completely revamped game. These features look so great on my CPU screen, but no question I'm going to have to see how this plays out.

Honestly I am in complete shock and awe at the features listed. For now I will commend the team for going back in the direction of what the sport of hockey is. It needs it. It will be extremely interesting to see how the game actually plays. I've definitely had my fair share of rants about this game, but this information has me very optimistic we could have a terrific NHL game on the Next Gen systems.

Next Gen only.

A lot of these improvements wouldnt be possible on previous gen

You can switch platforms on the easports.com/nhl to see confirmed current gen features.

Says they're not doing much to the board play in the GI article outside of adding more people to the scrum. So that's somewhat disappointing, but I think we need to see how the added men on the board plays will work before they completely overhaul that.

The game looks very promising thus far.

From another thread....

"The devs are also overhauling the puck physics from the ground up. To help, they hired a former scientist who worked on the Hadron Collider in Geneva, where they fire particles together at mach speed and create black holes. "He came over and joined us about 10 months ago and he's working on our puck physics, rebuilding it from the ground up," Ramjagsingh says.

Board play isn't being overhauled, but EA still plans to tune it to dial back suction so players can't get pinned to the boards from behind when they have a step on the other player. EA also thinks the new A.I. behavior should result in better puck support around the scrums.

A bit disappointed by this but I guess it's an improvement.

"Full gameplay trailer coming soon..."

Teaser gave me chills. The music, Doc's commentary in the background, the shots of in game graphics. This game is going to be fantastic, I'm convinced.

I imagine tomorrow we'll be getting a full trailer with gameplay, and commentary on the features list.

I'm beyond stoked. Literally can't play 14 anymore now haha.

sounds like 360 and PS3 are being left in the dust on this one. But boy oh boy, do those features sound promising so far. Very compelling.

hopefully last-gen will see some beaGM improvements though

I wonder if PS4/Xbox One demo will be at E3. They typically showed off new features in the past. If so, then it's not long until actual gameplay surfaces...

"Given the chance to start from scratch with new hardware, EA is taking a new approach to recording commentary. "No longer do we put a script in front of talent and say 'okay, read,'" Ramjagsingh says. "What you see with that is you try to turn the commentators into actors, and they don't sound like themselves. What we've done with all the content you're going to hear in the game this year, aside from some very specific things with player names, we just give them a situation. We did 30,000 lines of giving the situation: 'Daniel Sedin scores a goal top shelf in the last two minutes of the game. Give me 10 samples of that.' They pause for two seconds, think about what they would say, and they rattle it off. Doc and Eddie have worked together so long they just know how to play off each other, and the stories that they can tell that we've incorporated into the game is fantastic."

I wish they'd have mentioned full control defensive stick checking instead of touting even more dekes.

Re: NHL 15 Teaser Trailer and Features Revealed, Fall Release For Xbox One, PS4, 360,

HHHHHNNNNNGGGGGHHHHH

I'm loving the fact that they're using the NBC package and announcers (minus Pierre McGuire ... which is a good thing), and it sounds like they're addressing a lot of the problems with the old games. I'm in the "ridiculously excited" stage that comes right before "begins to have doubts and second thoughts" for now.

[Dolphins88]

I'm super pumped.. The stuff I wished for.. NBC announcers, presentation, realistic puck physics, real arenas, player differences, board play, realistic simulation... Finally a nhl game up there w the show and nba2k
