defensive.
So you never used the wrap around? People who used the wrap-around and had the stick and puck go through the net aren't bug hunting - they're using a "feature".
face-off problem? It happened to me in my very first game.
Hate the game? I never said I hated it. Now you're putting words into my mouth.
I should also add that many of the problems I'm talking about aren't even bugs - just bad testing. The computer taking a bazzilion slapshots a game was quite evident in every video posted here and elsewhere, and just about everyone noticed it. You'd think the programmers might have picked up on it themselves... things like that. Not every issue is a bug - sometimes it's just people not paying enough attention and missing obvious weak spots. The offensive AI in this game is atrocious.
Defensivly however, the AI has really improved. As well as the goalies. I love those aspects of the game. But the offensive AI is a huge problem.
