CPU AI Question Before I Purchase NHL 19

[regularcat]

Does the CPU finally dump and chase the puck or is it the same old skate into the zone or end up offside ?

I can't stand when the neutral zone is congested and they attempt to skate into the zone.

This is the only thing I cannot find out when I Google what I need to know about this game.

Hate to create a thread for this but the mighty Google couldn't get me the answer.

Thanks in advance.

I feel like it’s a mix. It’s better than years past.

But do they dump and chase ?

If they do I will buy it for $30.00 and play with strategies to have it occur more often.

I see them dump the puck fairly often in BAP. When they have no other option.

I play in franchise mode and I’ve seen the CPU dump and chase more than it did in any other installment of the NHL series.

They do dump and chase if you play defense positioning right if you leave a path open they will carry it in....which makes sense. There is however an overall lack of realism in the dumb and chase as the hustle to the puck is non existent both in the AI and human controlled player

It's the same as it has always been. They haven't touched a thing in years. Be a pro is untouched and the AI is god awful. You join a game and you get the same Doc Emerick line over and over. "If you're just with us, it's been a tremendous game of hockey and more to come". Literally the same line since he took over as commentator in 2015. Just awful.
