if you really want to show EA that they need to get better defensive AI or neutral zone pressure, or a complete overhaul, DON'T BUY THE GAME! hit them in the pocketbooks.

but, i can almost guarantee that all of us will buy the game, like we do every year, and they'll continue to dish out a mediocre game because they have no competition.

i'm a fan of the mediocre game, personally. i enjoy it every year and don't get caught up in the drama of 'FIX THIS EA, it's not sim' garbage. it's really the only game i play from Sept-Mar, then i trade it in before the trade-in value drops. the $30 it costs me to play it for 6-7 months is totally worth it - $5/mth! i don't know if there's anything i'm paying $5/mth for that could cause me as much frustration as it seems to for you guys.
