    The Slider Set That Sparkles (Post Patch)

    Ok guys so I have finally got enough time put in the game since the 1.04 patch and 1.02 tuner to draw up some sliders for us all, As of right now I cannot remember a time where I have actually be this happy with the on ice game I mean I really feel I got all aspects down with these latest sliders.

    I have taken the best of what I liked and put them into one slider set so I will no longer have two up on the main page cause I think that just adds to much confusion and I actually don't feel the need to switch between the two anymore
    .
    I'm also now rocking 8 minute periods so if your going to use these I would advice playing with period lengths also at 8 because the amount of time you choose obviously plays a big role in how my speed and fatigue settings are.

    Puck control is back down to 0/0 for each side cause I really like the loose style play and battles for possession in the corners, I would of used this forever ago but I could not for the life of me figure out how to get this style of play without doubling shots and TOA attack but thats all sorted out now.

    You guys well mostly Robinson will be happy to see that my speed has dropped a lot and Im now actually really liking the gameplay with lower speed settings.

    Ai settings haven't changed at all I still have difficulty on 3 all though you can have that set to what ever you like and penalty settings are still set at full and all that good stuff.

    My passing settings Have pretty much stayed the same with reception and accuracy at 0 for all and Im still really liking the speed at 3/3 so thats the same too.

    Shooting has also mostly stayed the same with power back up to 3 and all the shot accuracy settings at 2 with a exception of the CPU's favorite shot selection the ONE-TIMER OF DOOM!!!!

    Now my checking sliders are where things change a bunch, For Northmens sake I lowered the hitting down to 1/1 and its much better now in terms of getting closelined by the AI all the time.

    I maxed aggression out and didn't really know if I liked it so I put it back down to 3 and the difference was like night and day, what it does is makes the cpu take away your time and space and makes it very difficult to control the puck in the opponents zone.

    On top of that I found my poke checking game was far superior to the CPU'S especially since having the puck control so low so I had to give them the advantage in poke and stick check to balance it back out.

    With the difficult slider the cpu does get some advantages and those are in scoring and goaltending so to balance those out I dropped the cpus goalie reaction time and upped the humans.

    I'm seeing a lot more rebounds and HUGE variety of different goals both for me and them.

    Overall since sticking with these tweeks for about 12 games now each game has been a lot fun and not a single one has played out the same, I've had high scoring games, late game heroics for both sides, extremely low scoring games, and games where either side completely dominates.

    I have even been out shot and they have beaten me on time on attack and thats super rare hahaha.

    So ya like always changes will be thrown up on the first page and of course looking foward to your feedback as always cheers guys.

            I will definitely try these tonight. I'm not 100% satisfied with my sliders I posted here. I was. But then the new tuner today and it's is just too tempting to not use. I had previously decided on sticking with version 1.00.

            I am not a fan of manual passing. But I will give it a shot with what you have here. I will post my thoughts and observations afterwards.

            Appreciate the effort and you posting these.

            BTW. What is hit assistance at?

                  Np man one of the perks of being a drywaller is a have extended periods of time off work

                  Hitting assistance is at 0 and im sure auto pass would work i just like to keep it manual cause I play friends online and it screws me up mjorly when i use to auto.

                  I think you will like these a lot my only gripe so far is it is a tad bit faster than what i usually like to play at moments other times its a great pace but I cant seem to get penalaties with any thing lower

                    I wouldn't say its harder more so the ai plays smarter and tougher to hit.

                      You might want to look at raising goalie passing. I have it at 6 and they come out to stop the puck behind the net a lot more.

                          I played with these last night. I made 3 changes before I started. I turned manual passing off, put goalie passing at 6 and evened out hit power at 2 between user and CPU. Now my only issue with this is the speed, it's just a little bit too fast for me. Have you tried dropping game speed down and player acceleration down. Otherwise I am stuck on my sliders. Can't decide if I should use tuner 1.00 where penalties is not an issue. Or the new tuner with better smarter game play with less penalties. I just have to play more games to see if it's just a streaky thing with the penalties. And maybe try a different mode other than play now. We are really close to getting these perfect. But everytime I get satisfied a new tuner comes out.

                            I wouldn't touch game speed seeing is that controls more so how fast a player reacts to the play but dropping acceleration would slow it down I think I might test that as well with your goalie passing theory.

At zero that one makes everyone the same. At the high end it also makes high attributes get maxed out, so it will squash up the top end players (e.g. 95 will be similar to a 99) while spreading out worse players. The default is set one notch from the top (as on NHL13), so attributes are exaggerated a bit. Dropping it a notch or two below the default will give a more full spread in effective attribute values, when it is in the middle the numbers aren't warped at all.


                              So maybe lower attributes to 3 as well? I took this from AlTitos
