Fiddy's NHL 20 Sliders

[Fiddy]

Back at it for another year of slideritus following my usual scale (found below in the spoilers), then changing to a mix between sim and competitive, and then using a new method of switching the sim sliders drastically in the opposite direction like I did on May 15th of this past year.

My goal is to have a a few sets of sliders that offer some differences but also keep default game play in mind to keep the game "fun". Aiming for some simulated stats, but fun and realistic scores are where I want to be. Getting those results without playing 12-20 min period games either.

I'm super pumped to get an Alumni Franchise going with a minor league full of NHL rosters.

So welcome back and enjoy the NHL 20 slider ride.

"EDIT - 5/15/19

First post has been updated.

i was playing on the arcade settings and thought to myself, let me just flip flop the drastic sliders and see how it plays out. I was stunned, settings that were majority different than what i have been used to. Good times!

Check em out and see how they work for you guys."

Back at it again with NHL 19 Sliders and my keep it simple scale in hopes of not getting slideritus.

The scale (0/12/25/37/50/62/75/87/100)

I'm starting with what I ended the year with in 18. Then adjust from there, but I feel like I won't be changing a ton.

These are not the end all be all but they give me fantastic games. I'm settled in with that EA is giving us an arcade game with sim elements and I play and treat the game as such. Just trying to have some fun games with proper stats where possible.

Post your thoughts, suggestions, and results throughout the year.

Happy NHL 19 Season!

NHL 18 Sliders etc. below via spoiler tag

Spoiler

Back at it again with NHL 18 Sliders and my keep it simple scale in hopes of not getting slideritus.

The scale (0/12/25/37/50/62/75/87/100)

I play home games on All-Star and road games on Superstar. For me this keeps Franchise mode games more exciting with home ice advantage and having to be on your toes when playing on the road.

I had some solid results last year with NHL 17 for the most part late in the year once I figured out there was a save glitch after making changes to an initial pre-set save. See below for the issue and from what I saw so far, it's still an issue with NHL 18.

After you create and save an initial pre-set (mine Fiddy14) any changes after that don't stick unless you cycle through the pre-sets and go back to it (mine Fiddy14). Example, I set my pre-set and sliders and then save it. Play a few games and want to make a change. I make said change, save it, back out, and go back in. The slider is back to what it was prior to the save. To make sure the changes stick you have to save it as you would normally, then cycle through all the pre-sets until you get back to yours and the changes you made will be there. Odd glitch, but that's the small work around.

Check out the sliders below, play some games, post some feedback if ya want.

Enjoy..

I’ve been playing a lot of EASHL with my buds, 6’s, and the 3’s club arcade mode as well. Good times. I’ve also played a handful of play now games with the sliders above and I’m getting solid results per usual. I’ll try and snag a few box scores this weekend and post them here.

If anyone else tries them out post the screen of the box score or just post how the game went.

[jcas007]

Haven't picked up the game yet but I used your sliders last year and they were on point so definitely will be using these

I'm still on 19 but I note you still have 'board effect puck carrier' slider still at 100 for the new game so I'll post this here.
I'm curious what you are getting out of it while it is so high? All that seems to happen is that whenever you touch the boards you have some kind of 'episode' which freezes you for like 2 seconds giving the CPU an easy steal especially prevalent behind your goal when defending.
Personally I've dropped this considerably because I don't think a brush up against the boards should lead to such a disadvantage but would still like to hear your views

[jcas007]

Do you know if these work on pro level

Yep with a few exceptions, I have many similarities with this set playing NHL 19.
