mkharsh33 PRO SLIDERS for NHL 22 and 23

Re: **mkharsh33 PRO SLIDERS for NHL 22 and 23**

I love this game on PRO level. However, certain advantages MUST be given to the CPU in order to make this level more competitive. I have not had those moments where I felt helpless and the AI comeback was just killing me. There have been a WIDE VARIETY of games and outcomes.

Also, my objective is to start with the "eye test" the game physics. From there I then strive to find realistic stat outcomes. Now, you'll see the CPU has a HUGE speed advantage - therefore, play smart and sound hockey.

If there is something you don't like, then tweak to your preference. If you simply hate these - I get it, and I hope you have another set you do enjoy.

These are for BOTH NHL 22 and 23. My base is 22 and you'll see the changes for 23 in the parentheses behind each slider category. Enjoy!

Re: **mkharsh33 PRO SLIDERS for NHL 22 and 23**

I've posted an update in the post above for anyone wanting to see what changes I've updated both my sets with. If you're good with the original set in post 1 - then keep playing!! Thanks for the kind words!! It's taken me literally over a year to get these but I LOVE them!!

Re: **mkharsh33 PRO SLIDERS for NHL 22 and 23**

Game speed at 5 is just wow...

I lose the puck possession after possession, and it's incredibly frustrating. I have played on All Star the last 3 years, and was just giving these a try until I get better. This to me, is harder than default all star.

Personally, speed at 1 plays more smooth, and I at least can carry the puck...a little. I get what you are doing with the CP accel advantage, but they may be a little overbuffed. I cant even have the puck for a second and they are all over me, and they just skate around my guys with too much ease. I lowered cpu accel to 65, and jacked up cpu hit power to 25. Actually had cpu players hitting me out of the zone to force dump ins to avoid being offside, and i couldn't just skate into guys and hang onto the puck. May raise hit power to 50 for the next game. Raised cpu difficulty to 6/6 to see what that does.

I also maxed out cpu goalies to 100 everything as I put up 3 in the first period on Shesterkin. Again, just my opinion, if you love it then by all means.

Re: **mkharsh33 PRO SLIDERS for NHL 22 and 23**

I am going to give these a whirl, finally picked up the game after the positive feedback. I am a huge NHL fan and an offline franchise guy. I may start with the CPU difficult at 0 and work my way up to 3 after sampling some games. Gameplay is fun. Thank you for creating these.

Game speed of 5-6 is way too fast. For me, 0-2 is much more authentic. It may not be as much fun as zooming around at 100 mph, but it's much closer to reality.

I play my PS5 on a much smaller tv - around 24 inch screen. I think this is why I had to raise it because the visuals were different on my much larger tv. So whatever works!

Re: **mkharsh33 PRO SLIDERS for NHL 22 and 23**

NHL 22 will be my game for classic teams since 23 has no presentation but I been struggling for sliders to match the great rosters we can share . Well I just found these as I agree about Pro as a base and with a few personal tweaks because of my style of play these are just amazing so thanks again MK !

Re: **mkharsh33 PRO SLIDERS for NHL 22 and 23**

I know I am late to the party but will these work well with 94 controls?

I play hybrid controls and they work great so I think they would , have you tried them with 94 controls yet ?

Re: **mkharsh33 PRO SLIDERS for NHL 22 and 23**

I thought NHL 23 played really good out of the box have you tried these sliders with NHL 24? Once again with a few tweaks to my level these sliders are the best of any sports game I ever play, and that's a lot of games !

Did you ever pick up 24? If so, did you do sliders and what do you think about the gameplay? Any drastic slider setting adjustments required? I am new to the game...
