Re: EA Producer Blog: NHL 12 Gameplay
Well, EA put Vancouver's center ice logo - Roger's Arena in the game, so hopefully that goes to saying with TD Garden as well. EA heard the feedback from the community last year in how people were angry that some NHL arenas had no center ice logo in the middle.Comment

I will agree, everything written sounds great... But, in not so much the same words, wasn't the physics-hitting thing what was being touted last year?
And as for the Defensive A.I. I hope we see them do something, anything, than just skate back in a pair to their net. Currently, they don't hit you, and they very rarely poke check you.. I mean, it may sound funny, but I loved getting hammered with a huge hit in front of the opposing net by the D-men in 2k10... Hope something like that is in '12
That would go a long way in those club games when you don't have a human d-man.

If I see one defenseman go pin himself to the board without beeing pressure, I'll go nuts after EA, you can be sure of that.I will agree, everything written sounds great... But, in not so much the same words, wasn't the physics-hitting thing what was being touted last year?

Adding to what you say, if D still go back, back, back, to stop with their *** in the face of the goalie, EA will never be taken seriously by me.
I'm not even hoping for this, I'm assuming it's going to be change in NHL 12"Ice hockey is a form of disorderly conduct in which the score is kept." - Doug LarsonComment

Really annoying in OTP when they do that.... pretty much ruins the rush when you have them doing that all of the time...Xbox LIVE GT: oALEXtheGREATo

Re: EA Producer Blog: NHL 12 Gameplay
Yep, exactly.
This is my biggest gripe about the AI defense.
They never really challenge you when entering their defensive zone. Like you said Cheechoo, they just skate backward and kinda take a position.1969 NFL ChampionsComment

I know nothing about hockey but I want to rent this game. Look at the crowd behind those guys. If it has a Be A Pro mode that is enjoyable I will at least get my GameFly's cost for the rental out of the game.Comment

"You’ll notice CPU defensemen anticipating being caught and backing off the blueline or defensive forwards back-checking harder and getting deeper in the defensive zone to support their defensemen who is in trouble."
I am hoping that more active back checking forwards will allow them to program more aggresive Dmen logic.Comment

Re: EA Producer Blog: NHL 12 Gameplay
Good catch on the quote, Bukktown."You’ll notice CPU defensemen anticipating being caught and backing off the blueline or defensive forwards back-checking harder and getting deeper in the defensive zone to support their defensemen who is in trouble."
I am hoping that more active back checking forwards will allow them to program more aggresive Dmen logic.
The quote does sound promising, of a possibly more defensive minded gameplay.1969 NFL ChampionsComment
