I could care less win or lose but its the how this stuff unfolds after the update which is rough but at least I know its playing like NHL 12 13 or 14 so I can make slider adjustments but thats not the point as they made gameplay scripted and took out amazing puck and player physics and turned it into nhl hitz what a waste .

You were pretty positive about this game a week ago.

This tuner has angered a lot of people

Hey I call it like I see it as I have no horse in this race but it was the patch update they did not a tuner and the best thing for me is I can see all difference afterwords .
As I was always on default and the game other then better cpu defense and positioning plays just like the old EA NHL games that over used intimidation/big hits/fighting as the catalyst to tilt the ice aka momentum factor .

I can still make the game play fine by gimping it but I dont wanna play NHL 13 anymore as all that wonderful real puck and player physics are gone and they literally brought back all the cheats the AI used to use like cpu speed boost even when you have fresh guys , huge hits , bouncing pucks ,corner pass to slot goal , lack of hu defensive control where cpu goes into turbo mode and you cant skate or turn, weird angle puck movement and I also might have seen some frame rate clipping they use to use for cheap goals when needed .

But as I said before they do most updates gameplay wise for online play first and foremost regardless of how it effects offline .

Cant wait to see what comes next as its some pretty wild stuff going .

Ok played another 3 games and I lowered game speed 1 click and penalties went from 5 to 7 a game down to 1 or 2 a game so game speed is obviously a penalty tie in , when you think it would just be a visual ?.

Now I actually had 3 great games though I lost all three 3-1 , 3-0 , 4-1 but lots of late boost goals and eng but once again when the cpu wanted to score turbo morphin kicked but Im learning to try and keep off the puck man as the cpu will go after hu controlled player .

Also alot of the cpu player catching up to speeding pucks coming towards me and going away from him ?

The last few minutes of every game Im getting my but beat like a rented mule because ofcpu AI turbo mode , so what to do without losing the great cpu checking

Gotta say as frustrating as it is I love how the cpu is on me like white on rice but the generated goals feel very cheap so rather than lower the cpu goal skill Im gonna try Pro level on a higher speed to see if penalties are possible .

Update : Ok I stayed on allstar and replayed La at Chi me that I just played and lost 4-1 with all types of boost exactly the same but I raise game speed 1 click and lowered their goalie skill 1 click and right out the gate sharp now breaks down the wing shoots gets a rebound and scores and the crazy checking defense I played the last 9 games is gone ???

Because I raised game speed 1 click and lowered cpu goalie skill 1 click ? so why would this create a olay defense now ? these sliders make no sense unless I messed up the the tilt that set at the start of the game as it was a freebie goal and now it balanced back to aggressive check mode .

play on superstar.
no acceleration.
agression at 0
game speed at 2
cpu difficulty at 0

make sure you lower goalie reaction to 1
screen effect to 5 or max

seems perfect at these settings for me.
no cpu speed boosts

Yep, this is what I do to minimise. I can get good games. And I have game speed at, pass speed maxed (This pass speed slider is useless)

Although I must suck as Ive got my goalie at 5 and the CPU at 2.

THis CPU hitting is out of control. Id have less of a problem is it wasnt cheese.

But I can barely touch them. They can knock my guys down with no regard for momentum.

Actually your probably on to something as I was up 1-0 me hawks vs LA and 5 minutes into the third after a few big hits I now cant make a 5 ft pass or i try to ice a puck and that suction crap starts up when a cpu player isnt even on me yet .

I hope at 5 goalie skill for hu and 2 for cpu goalie theres still a variance of games and to the poster sure you can uninstall everything but you will get no futher updates , rosters , free content and it might even try to auto install so say no .
