Re: NHL 13 Community Day Video Webcast Available Now, Post Your Thoughts Here
Ahh Push puck I get ya. Can understand that. Though I'm pretty sure they'll tune it, or at least allow us to tune it via sliders to feel better if it's off out of the box.
I don't think Rammer really meant top speed while cycling, just a quicker first step due to their being momentum down that the Dman would need to adjust. No more stopping and changing direction on a dime.
Eh still taking a show me the full game or Aug for the demo to really decide one way or the other stance. It's early still though.
ComaFaction see I think there wouldn't be a problem if it's automatically done for you, as long as it's at the right time. My belief is that if they implement the skating like it should, we shouldn't have a problem with the decisions our player makes on his own. If it is coded with a button then I'm fine with it as long as it's realistic looking and feeling.
Also from what I've seen it isn't going to be pushing the puck. Players are skating and controlling the puck like a real life player would. The Superstars should be faster and more skilled at handling the puck while at top speed, 3rd and 4th liners won't. There is no more pushing the puck ahead I don't believe. Maybe in space, but it won't be that canned animation from tapping LT/L2. It's all on the player being able to control the puck at different speeds which is the way it should be.Last edited by bwiggy33; 05-31-2012, 05:47 PM.NHL-Minnesota Wild

Re: NHL 13 Community Day Video Webcast Available Now, Post Your Thoughts Here
Does anyone know the status for getting NCAA teams in the game?
I think I remember hearing that they 'might' be in NHL 12, but it was more likely that would get pushed back to NHL 13.
I would be stoked if they get the license to have college teams in the game!!University of Minnesota Golden Gopher Hockey

I don't think there's been a video game that had both college and pro teams on the same cart/disc since Super Play Action Football on the SNES.
Plus the NCCA has a reputation for asking way too much for their licensing.Comment

Not as much as it would cost to get the rights, but still. A guy can dream, can't he?

To satisfy myself I just create college teams with players in the game that are alumni. Normally St. Cloud, MIN, WIS, BU, BC, UND, Michigan, and Michigan State. They normally all have enough players to pick from between the NHL, AHL, and all of the Euro teams to fill a roster. It's actually fairly simple to do. It's kind of cool because you can add the college helmet to each player to. Gives it a little college feel. I've even gone as far as adding in custom sounds for St. Cloud, MN, UND, Michigan, and WIS. BTW it is unbelievable how many great players played for UND. The team is stacked except for goaltending.Last edited by bwiggy33; 06-01-2012, 01:05 AM.NHL-Minnesota Wild

Re: NHL 13 Community Day Video Webcast Available Now, Post Your Thoughts Here
Gopher Guy you are correct about the article but it was actually way back in May 2010 they posted it. They said it wasn't going to be in NHL 11 but possibly in 12. Here is the link to the article http://kotaku.com/5548672/ncaa-hocke...-eas-nhl-title Now that it's NHL 13 I think things have passed over. I'm sure the NCAA is hard to win over because all they want is money. It would be a dream come true if they were to add it, but I just don't see it happening.

Re: NHL 13 Webcast Starting Now, Post Your Thoughts Here
I'm realy impressed with what I see so far; live goalies, smoother skating, AI especially. I have to say that I'm looking forward to strategy customization the most.
Since they did away with cutscenes, what are they doing about post-goal celebrations? Also, I'm interested in finding about exactly what "Team First Presentation" means..
Graphics: very noticeable upgrade. I noticed this from the first trailer and the screenshots, but to see actual gameplay is pretty impressive. Now all we have to wait for is some actual live, in-game footage (minus the short clips).
Only unfortunate thing is that right now, it doesn't sound like BaGM nor BaPro got very much attention, since they're integrating this GM Connected mode.Comment

Even so, keep in mind that the EA NHL devs really aren't given a large sum of money to work with, when compared to say Madden. Hockey = smaller market versus football; the same goes for college football when compared to college hockey. It'd be nice to see NCAA incorporated into NHL games, but it's unlikely, and I doubt it'd be integrated farther than say scouting.Comment

I hope they change the deking system. but I think it wont happen ever. it is to mechanical. and as it was in '12 where you almost stopped while you deked was very annoying.Comment

Re: NHL 13 Community Day Video Webcast Available Now, Post Your Thoughts Here
It seems like I bitch about this game a lot haha. The only reason I do is because I care just as everyone else here. This game has so much potential but it's like the dev team doesn't quite understand how to make this game more replicated to real life. Maybe they've maxed out what they can do. I'm not a programmer so I wouldn't know, but I am a consumer and just as anyone else if the product hasn't been very good, you complain. I just think it's catered too much to the non traditional hockey fan, which makes it fun for them. That's probably where a lot of their sales come from though. I totally understand the game is not going to be completely realistic because hockey is IMO the toughest sport to emulate in a video game. The Show is great because baseball is a little bit simpler sport to replicate. People may disagree but the things that happen in hockey are just so much different than any other sport. The physics, speed, and bounces. Each sport is unique in their own way, but hockey is the craziest. I just don't think the dev team has shown anything the past 6 years that says we are going into the direction of realism. NHL 13 seems like it has the potential to do that so hopefully it will follow through.Last edited by bwiggy33; 06-01-2012, 05:09 PM.NHL-Minnesota Wild

Re: NHL 13 Webcast Starting Now, Post Your Thoughts Here
It would be nice to have you get the ability to do whatever move you choose after scoring, then all 4 players come around you and form the little circle they always do.
Also, GAME FACE!
Ramjagsingh's answer on the game face could go either way. Could be there is something they are waiting to unveil later (ICE-FACE!) or a slightly depressing "No game face this year"Comment

Re: NHL 13 Webcast Starting Now, Post Your Thoughts Here
Honestly, i'm kind of hoping they take a few pages out of the FIFA book. I love the after goal celebrations because it doesn't take you out of the game, you can celebrate however you want, and your team runs up to celebrate with you.
