Re: Exclusive NHL 12 Producer Blog: Revamped Be a Pro Mode

All I know is when NHL11 came out within the first week or so there were these super boosted teams who were trashing everyone. I sent a message to a few to see what was up and if it was a hack and they said they just played offline on rookie.

Yeah basically you have the various boosts and slots that require xyz achievements "Be drafted 1st overall" "Play 2 seasons with your pro playing 40 games and winning the stanley cup" etc. So for the season accomplishments you just put it on rookie adjust the sliders in your favor and play the 5 min 3rd periods for 40 games.

With that method I'd say you unlock about 90% of the boosts and slots. I'm actually surprised they make it fairly easy to unlock most of the stuff, because if they made it harder(or EASHL specific) people would just buy all of the boosts. Would make sense for them financially though.

Yep, until you notice you're an idiot since there's people letting know everyone on the internet how to mod a legend card so you can have every unlocked boost from the other guy, and then all you have to do is make you pro like you want it to be for online and offline.

I'm not sure I'll ever spent a dime on boost for this game!

I'm on XBOX, don't know if it's working on PS3 (I doubt it).

I've spend around 75$ last two years before finding this by accident (was looking for tips to get the legend card easier) when I got to a site where the guy is explaning how to mod a legend card. Tested it, worked and I won't pay anymore for boost.

Way to feel like an idiot after that...

Yep, that's exactly what bothers me. I don't want to waste my time playing on rookie (I can't even imagine how bad and passive the AI must be at that level). Yet I get punished because I play online right away without boosts and yet I never earn anything playing online. I have to go offline to compete online?

Yeah true like I said it's not fun but it beats paying money for the boosts... and there are some EASHL achievements but they're tough or impossible to get if you're not in a good club.

I like the look of the Old Dutch ads too.

Old Dutch potato chips are at least to me...nearly an institution up here in Northern Minny! The real product ads along the boards in NHL, imo...add a certain look of realism to the game. I like'em.

Old Dutch is a top notch brand.
Excellent potato chips.
