    Re: NHL 17 Beta Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here!

    Only one major complaint from me. I play pretty much exclusively EASHL.


    Hustle is overpowered. The AI Defense just gets skated right by every time for an easy cross crease goal for the other team. I've hated the hustle option since it's inception, but this year it seems to make even more of a difference. There's just no penalty in EASHL for people using it constantly.

Hate to be a pest or leech but if anyone has an extra ps4 code i would really appreciate it. Lol asked over at the ea forums but they just look at me hahaha.

              They just need to get rid of hustle. It breaks the online play. There is no penalty in EASHL if you just hustle the entire game.

                I think you can have it, but make the cooldown really punitive. Like you're significantly slowed for a period after (effectively taking you out of the play).

                  Yeah if the fatigue actually mattered in EASHL I wouldn't mind it, but when you see at the midpoint of a period the other team has zero stamina when a fight happens, yet they can still outskate the AI Defense it's ridiculous.

                      I wish they would have push the puck ahead instead of hustle. Was far better for that extra burst and u had to use it wisely.

                        I've always felt that EA's NHL games played best when the acceleration/speed/agility ratings were the only thing that controlled your player's movement speed.

                        Adding an unlimited-use hustle button on L3 has made their gameplay less authentic and has destroyed the left joystick on countless controllers because people have to keep it clicked in so often throughout a match.

                        At least on Xbox One you can remap your controller's buttons to keep the hustle feature from breaking your left joystick.

                          You can still map your buttons on ps4. Its under accessibility options i believe. I do agree, push puck was during that time bro.

                            poke check, poke check, stick lift, hit, stick lift, poke check, hit. People really don't know how to play hockey.

                            In EASHL they're even worse. Looks like when you have tykes on the ice and they are all just chasing the puck. No one stays in position, they're all running around. EA NHL players are just really bad at the concept of hockey.

                            I'm sure there are good players out there, so far in the Beta I haven't come across them.
