You are completely entitled to your own opinion but majority what you are saying isn't true. NHL 15 was a complete rebuild and NHL 16 was additions added to that rebuild. That is why we are starting to see things return like net battles etc. I miss lobbies they were fun but the league functions completely normal with the drop in invites..... Therefore having no lobbies has zero affect on League play. Then NHL 16 had an open day patch putting in drop in, invites to give us an option. That was added for us. There is a lot of info not released yet that will turn some heads but like we said originally the only things we can discuss are based off the featur set release. As much as you want to hid behind the back the randomize is good for the game the large majority don't feel that way. It doesn't mean you are right and I am wrong. All I am saying is to ignore the fact there is a randomness factor built into NHL is ignorant. We need to stop comparing NHL 14-15 to NHL 16 and on. The Xbox 360 games didn't have the level of incidental contact we see in NHL 16. I agree sticks and puck shouldn't go through body's and skates and we shouldn't see anything else like taht now. Also the "randomness" I am talking about is missed puck pick ups. That is an issue, that does affect everyone on the ice but with better pick ups the better teams will benefit more. Once again your opinions are a tad rediculous to me. But hey you can think and feel how every your want. At the end you can't save everyone lol. Once the game comes out let me know if you feel the same and have any suggestions to pass along for NHL 18
i love the series, i think theyve took a huge step forward this year. minus seemless puck pick ups and the poor goalies.
[QUOTE="MCDONALD l19l, Ignored no.. you have to keep in mind your are just ONE opinion and TON of things suggested by this community was reviewed and added to NHL 17. Just because you didn't get minor aspect of what you believe is the "best" doesn't mean the game is a write off. [/QUOTE] spin it how you want. I wasn't talking about just my opinion. I was talking about the poll. I was wrong by saying ignored. I'm sure EA dev team was receptive.

Yeah i will be back in 2 more seasons, ugh I should of just bought another xbox so i wouldn't of been banned for inactivity on the football league.
Sounds like every single person here is saying we want custom players back in eashl that's what it's always been about if people want even play do otp
Looking at the chart that guy showed the 2nd most wanted thing overall is custom stats and builds for eashl sick of this washed up balance crap it's not what the people buying the game want get it through your head
Is the stick curl force shield still in there? You know the move forwards do after crossing the blue line and can't do anything to get by the defenceman so the only thing they can do is stick curl.
Idk, this is the 1st year where I'm not excited about the game based on features. Still nothing improved in EASHL, everyone is stuck with the same exact builds from last year (which got boring quick since you can't change anything and there isn't much to chose from) I bet no Club Practice or Lobbies either, no GM connected online (NHL 2k5 on ps2 had an in depth online franchise mode) The biggest feature of NHL 17 is that you can edit the jumbotron after winning, does anyone ever pay attention to the arena during a game? It just doesn't feel like they put any effort into actual online gameplay and features.
Version we played I liked way better than 16. Didn't realize how much was fixed up in 17 until I got home had to play 16 again
Feature Set EASHL Customization for EASHL players and club is kinda cool Progression system is better than nhl16s, not really a lot just visual shit but better than nothing Practice mode is back which is awesome, hopefully it runs smooth and we don't all have to be on the same server 1.) Are lobbies back? 2.) Are club challenges ranked? (No one searches anymore it sucks and no one cares about leaderboards bc of unranked challenges) 3.) Any changes to the preset builds, ex: more of them, variations of them, increase in all the overall ratings of them 1st 2nd liners instead of 3rd liners, it is sucks going from VS and HUT players to using your EASHL player) HUT New Chemistry system - Will be something different, kind of lame people will play everyone out of position defense on fwd and fwd on D, although i always played Burns on D when he was a fwd last yr and the yr before VS No one plays anymore bc of HUT GM I don't play offline Be a Pro I don't play offline *Will we be able to choose international ice as our home ice in EASHL? Ive asked for this for like 2 years, 6s would be so much better if we had a little more room like on the international ice and goalies when they played the puck wouldnt accidentally skate into the trapezoid and get a penalty @MCDONALD l19l
How about they do something with custom stats for eashl sick of these builds they lost me as a customer
