    NHL 11 Questions (E3 Related)

    So info is starting to trickle out, and next week OS will be at E3 to check out the game.

    If you guys have questions, post them here and we'll try to get them answered. I make no guarantees that all of the questions will get answered, but hey, we'll give it a shot. And, if we don't get them answered at E3, I have a hunch I'll see the game again before it is released.

    Is the defensive AI smarter and are the goalies more realistic?
    Thanks Chase!

        Computer and user skating- Is it changed? If so how?

        Computer AI passing- How does the AI set up it's offense. Does it still do the pinball looking passes. Just extremely accurate and quick, very unrealistic looking. You'd have to play against the computer to see this, and that might not be possible at E3. Love to know if this has been changed though.

        Broken Sticks- If you could just try to get an idea of how and why they break. Someone said it's random... and that doesn't sound good. It should break because it was going to break... not a dice roll or something silly.

        Goalie Play- Different variety of goals? Less cross crease passes for one timers? More clean looking shots? Towards the end of NHL 10 they changed something and got more just shots getting passed the goalie. Like to see this continue and see what you think so far with 11.

        Think that is it for now Chase. If you can't answer them all, no biggie. Have fun and just play the hell out of it. Haha.

          It's physics based, when the stick is either under stress or hit really hard(slashes, slapshots etc..)


          My question, how many "advanced dekes" are in this game?

              New commentators please?

              EASHL team games bigger than 6 people? In other words, can we do line changes and make our own lines with our friends?

              Can we get waved out of the faceoff circle if we go too early?

                1. Can we still select any game from any sides schedule during season or franchise mode and watch it as cpu v cpu?

                2. Has any AI improvements been made to cpu v cpu mode - ie. last year suffered from a lack of penalties and fighting in this mode.

                Thanks

                    Are the AI controlled players User/Cpu, much more aggressive towards the puck carrier?

                    Is there now an option in GM mode to play a shorten regular season? Such as a 41/82 games season.

                      Has Boston's TD Banknorth Garden been updated? They put a new scoreboard in about 4 years ago.

                        Any change in saving highlights when playing online?

                        Longer and ability to go in after the game and view/save a goal highlight from the first period.

                          Are more offensive and defensive strategies incorporated yet? Forecheck AND Backcheck, dump frequency, ect.

                          Please tell me the line change problem after a PP or PK has been fixed.

                            -Can we expect a new broadcast camera (to go along with better presentation)?
                            -Is the option to fully remove the puck shadow available?

                              How will the physical progression of CHL players be handled in BaGM? Will 16 year old Jr players progress from 5'10" 155lbs as they age?
