NHL 15 Screenshots - Honda Center & Xcel Energy Center

[Simple Mathematics]

Looks great! I can't wait to get the Revamped Rosters in here and see some gameplay videos. I really don't care about stanchion thickness.

Seriously? Wow....

nitpicking at it's finest right there.

I am buying it lock stock and barrel ! If the gameplay is better so be it for me there is enough in the presentation aspect and with the new commentary it will be much better at its core I think it fine just suttle changes needed. I only play offline and with my boys the online play as had too much lag and again with humans they can ruin anything and everything there will always be cheating so hopefully they will never get rid of the single player experience.

I'm buying my next-gen console based on which console NHL 15 will look best on. I know it's ridiculous, but it's the game I invest the most time into. Now, last gen EA Sports developers were using the Xbox 360 to make the games, and they were therefor visually (slightly) better on the Xbox 360 versions each year. Any news as to which console they're using this time around?

People make a big deal because it eventually gets old wading through topics of pure toxic year in year out. OS didn't used to be like this. At least not to the level it's at now where 95% of the posts in any EA related game sub forum are full to the brim of XX series sucks because "insert nitpick here"

Some of the complaints are valid, no doubt, alot of them however reek of entitlement more often than not.

Please tell me what else you would like people to talk about then?

We have no gameplay to talk about, all we have is some screens.


It's a forum, people are pointing out inaccuracies with the screens, it's not a big deal. You've clearly been here longer than your join date indicates since you brought it up but OS has ALWAYS been this way.

And again, what's wrong with it? I haven't seen anyone say they aren't buying it because of the inaccuracies, I've seen only a few say negative things towards EA about it, it's just people discussing the few things we have to discuss.

Me personally? I don't care, as long as the gameplay is good and as long as the teams being on the wrong bench doesn't change the short/long changes (and there is no evidence that it does) then it has no bearing on me and is just aesthetics.


If however, these teams being on the wrong bench affect the changes that would be a significant gameplay factor so it's not as minor as some of you seem to make it out to be.

Again, doesn't appear to be an issue at all but that's with no gameplay evidence to back it up.


Banners being in the wrong place? Again, don't think anyone cares enough about it to say they wouldn't buy the game but pointing it out harms who?



If you are looking for a forum where everyone just comments on every screen and says nothing more than that is gorgeous you aren't going to find it.

Re: NHL 15 Screenshots - Honda Center & Xcel Energy Center

This is the first go at "next gen" wait until the game comes out, play it, and see whats good and whats not. I dont see the point in critiquing a photo. We dont play photos, we play games. Ya dig?

The reason he has been here longer than his join date is because he was previously banned for basically the same stuff you are talking about. Apparently the nitpicking and whining that he hates so much just keeps bringing him back. Unless you agree with him, you are basically an idiot for thinking differently than him. There's almost no point in even posting on here anymore because he is either A) Trying to stir the pot(check out his unnecessary first post in the PK Subban screen shot thread) or B) Hating on the people who point out things they don't like. I don't get why someone who continuously posts about how they hate the negativity on the site keeps coming back to post every day. That just doesn't seem worth it or make any sense but whatever. His attitude is the reason I've tried limiting my posts. I don't need him trying to call me out for the idiotic viewpoints I have. Anyway I'll stop now so I don't get banned.

Maybe that says something more about EA games then it does about peoples attitude. Im a huge sports fan specifically hockey and baseball. Every game is obviously not gonna please everyone in all aspects but there is a reason why this forum is riddled with complaints and the show isnt. The show has a really good base and seems to actually improve every year. People in the show forums might complain but have an overall positive view on the game. I would say its more of the quality of the game more then people seeming "entitled," whatever that means when it comes to a video game.

The Show forums have their share of complaints as well, as high as NBA2k is rated that forum does as well. You're right though, you're never going to please everyone, and there's plenty of legit gameplay issues with NHL to chirp about. Thickness of glass stanchions though.. really?

Re: NHL 15 Screenshots - Honda Center & Xcel Energy Center

(In Allen Iverson voice)

I can see if the center logo was way off, or even missing, how that might be a huge issue. I know that.
But we're talking bout stanchions! I mean, how silly is that!? We're talking bout stanchions man! I mean, what are we talking bout? Stanchions!?

[Mgbleu1986]

I don't know why people get so upset when other's point out inaccuracies. People can say all the good things in the world about a picture and that's fine but when someone points out something wrong with a pic, people go crazy. The arenas look great but at the same time things are wrong with them. It's EA so no one should be surprised. For all you EA fan boys, relax!

You're confusing upset with indifference to be honest. With all the things to get up about in the world never mind the game itself, complaining about imperfect stanchions in a video game falls into the "first world problems" category.
