NHL 16 Tuner Update For September 28

Re: NHL 16 Tuner Update For September 28

Try my sliders out. CPU dumps and chases on me with the up to date tuner.

Yes they do and you did an amazing job to set a nice base after this last tuner update affected organic play for many off liners .
So if anyone likes a reactionary fresh organic game of Hockey where anything can happen and no two games are the same I highly recommend his sliders and heres hoping if EA updates another tuner they just dont overwrite the old one .

Great slider set yet I still felt the ai cheated. No knock to your set. Which is great.

However, call me crazy, I just had a thought. What is tuner Sept 28 is 1.00, and Latest, is Sept 30. Which was brutal

I am playing a game now with the tuner set at 1.00. And I am not about to throw my controller at the cheating ai.

Can someone else that is having single player issues give this a go and see if 1.00 and latest are not the same.

Feels better for me but may be placebo effect. Not perfect, but better

Not sure on that lol but I did feel that the Latest and v100 were slightly different but as I said before who knows its probably just randomness .

And as far a Clarkies sliders go even if the ai cheats a little rears it head do to strategy changes as you said its still 100% adjustable and my player doesnt feel blocked out, slow or non responsive and I like having real interaction .

A cool thing I noticed with his was with TOA as one game I was down 3-0 but had almost a 2 to 1 advantage in toa with advantage in shot totals and then the next I was up 3-1 and the TOA was even and the cpu also outshot me 30 to 21 .
So what Im saying is the AI and the strategy adjusts pretty realistically for a hockey video game depending on the situation because when they were up big they protected a lead and when behind they got aggressive and took more chances on the forecheck and it all unfolded very naturally and not just with boosts or lack of control as the advantage .

I do feel like the AI cheats a bit, especially on lose pucks, they always come out on top if it's a 50/50 situation, and they're amazing on rebounds in front of their goal and your own.

That being said, the outrage over the poke check penalties is incredibly mind boggling. I take about 2 penalties a game with the new system, sometimes 3. The computer also takes 1 or 2 every game. It's so refreshing, and I haven't made a penalty yet where I felt like I was cheated.

Do people really just spam the poke check button 24/7 to play defense?

Re: NHL 16 Tuner Update For September 28

I'm more mad about the lack of varieties in penalties I saw after that tuner, it seemed like only tripping was called....and also the cpu was devoid of using any actual hockey strategy and were like robots....playing the game with the default tuner is like night and day.

Did they fix the lack of neutral and defensive zone pressure? Can you still just skate in and take a slap shot? Deal breaker for me.

Re: NHL 16 Tuner Update For September 28

Very odd. I'm using the default out of the box tuner and tweaked sliders. When I played my first game I had 5 PPs and the CPU had 6 PPs. then my next 4 games I saw 1 PP each game and the CPU 2 or 3. So I reset sliders to default tweaked them to where I had them, played a game and BOOM, I had 5 PPs and the CPU had 4PPs. next 2 games 1 PP for me in 2 games and 2 PPs for CPU in each game. So....I did the reset slider thing again and I had penalties called. Seems I need to reset the sliders and tweak them before every game.


This does not make a whole lot of sense but so much with this game and its tuners and sliders do not make sense and I have tested this several times and it works. Weird stuff

Everything they advertised with the stick to stick collision is gone now.

Can you please confirm if you change settings in the main menu or right after team selection?

Re: NHL 16 Tuner Update For September 28

Just deleted all my stuff. Couldn't take it anymore. Final straw was when I ripped a slap shot from the blue line. Goalie made a nice save, rebound was free, I stick lifted the defended, my icon lit up as I had the puck, then with no animation, he had the puck, and with 2 men on him, proceeded to sent a backhand pass about 100 miles per hour to his waiting center at the red line that hit his tape beautifully, and mind you, the puck traveled through my defensemen on the way.

So their center gets it, stops, side steps, stops, stops, side steps, avoids a check at center ice by just side stepping me, then reads my controller that I'm now going to poke check him, so he turns, half falls, draws a penalty, but side steps once more and has a lane, yup, through everyone and back on the net.

I don't care he scored, but the back hand 100 foot pass, the side stepping in the neutral zone, the turning to avoid hits, the avoidance of poke checks, then knowing here it comes, yup, doop do doo, and score.

Rant over, but I deleted everything. Played on Pro Default. Won 2-1. Shots were even, pucks were loose, time of possession was even, passing was 66 percent them 61 percent me. Post tuner with passing slider at 0 the AI is never under 80 in my games.

I was actually able to clear pucks without the AI catching ripped slap dumps to get out of the zone on the pk.

Saw deflected shots, shots out of play, I and they could dump the puck and there were board battles for it. Holy hell what a fun game I just played. Too bad I had to delete my season that was 28 games in. Hoping they fix this soon.

One thing, anyone else find that AI is very quick to poke check at the exact time you press up on the shoot stick? Even pre tuner. I have a guy beat, press up, he poke checks me. I try to float one in from a bad angle, the second I press up, they poke check it. Wears me out.

Anyway, FUN game I just played after deleting everying. Very very fun

I used to play on Pro in playoff mode on Last gen to avoid the tilted ice boosts and cheats and it worked great but no penalties on that level for me but this year it seems penalties have more depth at least stick penalties.

On a side note after the 9/28 tuner updates I noticed alot of the traits from past NHL games that I didnt care and like most offliners I tried many different sliders that just didnt meet my needs so I pulled out my old sliders from last gen NHL 13 and 14.
And after a few games Im pretty satisfied as they were designed to keep the game playing honest while lessening boost and non responsiveness as the advantage and hopefully after I tweak the goalies Ill be good to go again .

Re: NHL 16 Tuner Update For September 28

Raising the Puck control slider to 5 now, has really helped with my enjoymet of this years game. Lots of loose pucks and unpredictable gameplay with that one slider adjustment.
