    The TrueSim Roster Project: NHL 19

    [size=2]For those who were following my work on the MLB The Show rosters, you knew I was working on a project for NHL 19.

    I released a preview of these edits for NHL 18 along with my sliders, but made some key changes when I started working on this project.

    The methodology is the same: using a three-year baseline (when possible) to assess everything a player does on the ice. Both standard and advanced NHL statistics drive these ratings.

    These rosters were developed with franchise mode in mind as that is my favorite mode, and I'm strictly an offline player. The ratings work well within EA's system, but ensure player differentiation is improved.

    These rosters are best-lines ready.

    About 700 skaters and 100 goalies are included.

    Re: The TrueSim Roster Project: NHL 19



    You know what to expect by now: simulation hockey. Throughout the years, I've never been afraid of pushing bounderies and trying different things with sliders. This year is no different. These were tested via CPUvCPU, and using the True Broadcast Cam in order to get an accurate measure of game and player speed.

    The main areas I wanted to focus on were getting penalties, especially slashing calls, in realistic ranges. I also wanted to ensure that the flow and pace of an NHL game is on display with this set. I made a lot of tweaks to concepts I tried in previous years, especially the pace of the game.

    Give them a go, and let me know what you think.

    All of the skating sliders work in conjunction with the game speed slider, passing sliders and fatigue sliders to represent the pace and flow of the game.

    SHOOTING
    With these shooting sliders, what I wanted to do was ensure the balance between shots, goals and misses was improved. I wanted to see more tipped pucks and players using screens. I wanted the quality of the chance to show here.

      You’re back!!

      This looks awesome man, good stuff!

      If EA ever allows roster sharing, I’d love to team up again just like the old school Revamped days. I wonder what Puckhead and Sparkles are doing these days...

          Awesome work. Man we need roster share. I simply no longer have the energy to do the rosters myself anymore, mainly because the game itself has been underwhelming the past few years. Revamped rosters would help change that big time.

                    Yes. For anyone who is missing (because they don't have enough NHL experience right now), make the following changes:

                    Forwards: decrease offensive and defensive awareness to 50
                    D-men: decrease offensive and defensive awareness to 60

                    This is what I'm doing for AHL players who I haven't rated.

                        He does, but he hadn't played in the NHL prior to this season since 15-16, so I missed him

                        Just added his ratings to the sheet.
