It's just the same as random OTP has always been.

If people want and are willing to play together it can be really fun, but its horrible if you got bunch of goons spamming, deking alone always, not passing etc. Nothing's really changed in that aspect.

I do agree that you should be able to play with your friends, that being left out is just flat out stupid.

Also.. what the **** EA? Why no goalies in OTP? I don't understand that at all.. HUGE part of this game and NHL series in general for me was playing goalie in OTP/EASHL matches and enjoying the hell out of it.

I really hope they'd be willing to patch human goalies and friends to OTP.

In this era of gaming, where social integration is definitely trending, and players can join each other in party chats while gaming, calling a mode Online Team Play and not giving users the sure ability to play with each other as a team is a huge gaff.

I might be one of the very few people who are happy that there are no human goalies in OTP. Can't stand it when you have a human goalie who sucks and other team has one who's good or they don't have one at all.

I'm having fun playing OTP. Yeah you sometimes get a terrible teammate or two, but for the most part people just want to play the game as a team. Some of the best games I've had, nobody had a Mic, but people understood where to go on the ice and what to do.

It's not ideal, but me and my buddy were able to get into the same games by just starting the search at the same time.

When I read that EA sent some devs to UFC and never got them back (because they went on to finish FIFA) I knew we were getting the short end of the stick.
So many simple things like being able to play with friends should be an easy no brainer. All it takes is making lobbies. Same in HUT, why not able to play friends? OTP is bad enough without being able join your buds.
EA Sports: enemy of friendship.

One more recommendation for OTP, lock every league that isn't the NHL. Also don't allow the all-star teams to be selected. I don't want to play Team Canada vs the Red All-Stars every game.

I started up NHL 15 latest version today and tried OTP. I can't find a camera view which allows me to see myself on the ice except when the puck is near me. I play mostly defense so I can rarely see myself. One of the way zoomed out camera's might work, but I want to be closer, like on xBox 360.
