Re: NHL 16 Q&A Day #2

Does anyone know if the United Center(Blackhawks) and PNC Arena(Hurricanes) made it into NHL 16 this year?

Re: NHL 16 Q&A Day #2

For the love of God can someone ask these guys if there's edit player AND share roster. We need both. I'm tired of EA games having every decent to great player rated a 79+ OVR. Backups shouldn't be close to stars

You think those are the only questions asked??? I am guessing everyone who posts regularly on this forums has these questions.

Still no mention of edit player. If it's not going to make it in before release I hope they just tell us. Or if they are going to try but they might not get to it. Or anything. I just want them to acknowledge it and not blow it off.

Seconded. Just want to know the deal on edit player.

I just don't understand how edit player is not in a game in the year 2015...

I feel the same way. Someone in another thread suggested I email the development team. I've been searching all morning for that email address with no luck. Anyone know that email address? He hinted that it is something they have in mind and if there is enough buz about it, there would be a good chance of it being in.

I think on Twitter, one of the Game Changer event guys said that United Center wasn't in the game. Not sure about PNC.

Re: NHL 16 Q&A Day #2

The funny part is many of us will still end up buying the game but we would rather know right away that this feature won't be in the game so we don't get our hopes up all summer long. I doubt they will even tell us Sept 1. It will more be like "we are working on it and will have an update later" and then on Dec 1, "yea we couldn't do it, but next year...."

Please dont be sucked in by EA's promotion. I am glad I avoided 14-15 and it really feels great and feels so vindicated. So dont' be discouraged if you say "no" to your urge in buying 16, if its still the old garbage with a new cover.

Player editing is a must have feature in 2015...However, I would appreciate a straight answer from EA. They had no problems saying GM Connected isn't in...if it isn't in, just be honest. SCEA has respect in part because they are honest with their community.

Re: NHL 16 Q&A Day #2

This was today's question (It will be tomorrows too):

Will There be Player Differentiation this year. For Example Sidney Crosby should be noticeably different when controlling him than say David Clarkson. This alone would make the game feel more realistic, and add an element of strategy that just does not exist currently. To see what I am talking about, check this out http://www.operationsports.com/forum...entiation.html

Re: NHL 16 Q&A Day #2

Smartglass/Kinect integration was a more frequent and more pressing question than the ability to edit players? I'm sure.

It's unfortunate, but I'd say given the track record that if something is being ignored by this team, the answer is likely whatever the vast majority don't want it to be.

Editing players seemed to be a pretty big let down last year, so I don't see why they wouldn't be trying to use it as a "feature" this year, along with all the other "new" things they've listed already, were it to actually be back in the game. We can hope that they're feeling the heat already and somehow squeeze it in, but I wouldn't count on it for now.

Difference in speed, puckhandling and other attributes must be a tuning issue, so it shouldnt be any excuse to not fix this, that video is gold btw.
The only thing I might take some time to add are personal difference in specific players, like signature moves, so game-Crosby plays like real Crosby for example.
Hopefully they've fixed stats difference, guessing they got thousands of questions and its only day 2 so hoping we'll get the answer to this.

Re: NHL 16 Q&A Day #2

Just a heads up, they are answering more questions as of a few minutes ago

Re: NHL 16 Q&A Day #2

Well, we can't edit players in BaGM, which sucks unless their built-in assignment of equipment for rookies, and assignment of goalie equipment like new team masks and color schemes is improved, and no explicit mention about editing players outside the mode. Why can't we get a straight answer on this?

I didn't buy it last year, although I was gifted a copy that I played for about a month. I would have never paid full price for that game but I still got some enjoyment out of it. If their is a full fledged GM mode I will probably buy it this year.
