    Re: NHL 15 Wish List - Is This A Make Or Break Year?

    nhl 15 improvements:

    Realistic battles infront of the net. Not this get suctioned cupped into the tie up animation and not be able to get to the puck in the corner.

    Realy board play make it a reward to win a puck battle on the board. Not being able to kick the puck all the way down the ice.

    Better Physics, Better Faceoffs, Better AI and teamate recognition. To many times the AI just stands in one spot and Im stuck at the half board trying to figure out something to do. Realisitic Goalie movement no warping from post to post. There needs to be a finishing trait. Example would be Ovechkin more times than not is going to finish a two on one as opposed to David Clarkson on a two on one.

    Implement the slap pass. You never see a slap pass from the blue line to the guy thats standing far post for the easy redicrection into the net. Do away with the dekes or make them harder to pull off. Also add flubbed shots and stick on stick interaction.

    Defense the hitting needs to be toned down. Free stick movement not just poke check in one direction. Stick tie up and battles for the lose puck would be nice. Maybe add some leverage into the game. Better puck support also.

    Be a gm needs to be fixed also-
    Contract Negotiations,No movement clauses, I like it more like owner mode like Madden 25. Ticket prices, better set of expectations. Real coaches with tendancies and traits. Better trade logic. Better scouting system for both Players entering into the draft and player scouting for deadline deals. hot and cold streaks based on your season in be a gm!. Better developement and Progression/regression. Player Morale i.e. Player upset that hes playing third line minutes when his role is assigned to second line minutes. Line Chemistry like in HUT. Post game interviews, Pre game interviews possible in between period interviews?

      EA's answer to this wishlist will probably be:

      "Goalies can now break the glass!"


      To add to the presentation: Bring back the group celebrations!!

        There are rolling pucks in the game as it is today, you can take that off your list.

          " i have heard rumors from people who play tested that mike emerick and NBC is commentating, along with the puck being "lose" like the fifa ball. Deking has apparently been re-vamped and pass and shooting assist is toned down so you can't rip a shot or pass while skating full blast anymore. Also it is confirmed to be on next gen."

              List is good but ratings shouldnt be based on points only. Also puck possession and controlling the play With zone time and passning should be more important than moron dekes and bs cheese.

                I'm abit surprised they don't just follow what they have for FIFA and have 2 sets of commentators for the games. I get that FIFA has it because there's so many diff leagues/countries in the game, but for NHL, they could've at least gotten NBC guys as one of the commentary teams and CBC/Sportsnet guys as other commentary team.

                  About time they change commentators. Good start.

                    Re: NHL 15 Wish List - Is This A Make Or Break Year?

                    Nice write up....but I dont know if EA will put any attention to it. But I'd like to add these:

                    - Player and team differentiation. All players are same alike and not much of a difference in speed. Teams play the same way and not playing with their strengths.

                    - Neutral zone - its freaking easy to enter the opponent's zone, you are not being forced to dump the puck.

                    - GM/Live a life free agency - one of the biggest gripe of mine against NBA 2k14 NG, is that the FA is missing in MyCareer mode. As the write up said, I really love to see the "drama" during the FA or Trade deadline.

                    - Celebration goal - for the love of hockey, I dont understand why EA removed this in exchange of "personal celebration". You could combine both. In NHL, a player who made a goal could still celebrate on his own and then being congratulated by teammates. Maybe giving a scene of skating back to their bench and their teammates give them high-5's.

                    - Difference between regular atmosphere and playoffs. Besides the towel wave, i dont really feel that you're in the playoffs. Especially when you reach the conference finals and SC finals....FLAT-out unimpressed.

                    - Live a life - another thing I despised in NBA 2k14 (NG) is that, you need to score tons and always must end up as the superstar. But why can't I be a superstar or a high caliber players just being in the 2nd line or 3rd? An excellent defensive forward? At least, add a different dimensions in this mode. I didnt even bother to touch BAP because you always ended up being the superstar and high scoring machine.

                      Also I believe it was NHL 94 that had highlights from other games during your game. Finally 21 years later, can we please have that back. Would love to see what's going on around the league during my game.

                        Yeah how insane is it that NHL 94 had highlights from around the league... On Sega Genesis.. It's 2014 and we don't have that or other scores. What they need to do is release the puck from the players already, improve puck and stick physics, as well as improve player AI to comprehend the fundamentals of hockey. Then drastically improve graphics to keep up with NBA 2k and soon to be Madden 15 (assuming that teaser is the real game), and improve presentation to make it actually look like a real broadcast and not an EA Sports broadcast. By that I mean the actual camera cuts from NBC or whichever station they mock as well as the same score banner in the same spot on the tv and tv swipes that resemble the station being recreated.

                            They need to equalize the control schemes. There is no reason that things like line changes and stick lift can't be done in the Hybrid scheme.
