    Missing Prospects post roster update?

    Posted: 26 Jan 2021 09:56 AM PST

    Obviously disregarding NCAA & KHL players, is there anyone notable still missing from the game I should create before I start a franchise mode?

    BAP musings

    Posted: 25 Jan 2021 06:51 PM PST

    Started this list one hour ago, played 1 BAP playoff game, and this is what came to mind + some stuff that is just bs and has been annoying me about this mode.

    FWIW I've been a consistent EA Sports-NHL fan for 25 years for some unknown reason.

    • There is no BAP ASG
    • Injuries
      • Still walk down game tunnel even if left game early
      • I've only had game-ending injuries, nothing long term but haven seen no injury reports
    • "Stats Central"
      • Only 23 stats lol
      • No advanced stats
      • Horrible UI - the whole game has awful UI but stats area is silly
    • Coach Interactions
      • Why does he stop me after every game, if only to say he has nothing to say? so odd
      • Why would you ask me to backstop the team? I'm a rookie. I'm on a line with 2 future hall of famers and you need me to step up to the plate?
      • In hockey most interactions during the game happen while on the bench or intermission...but not a specific player called over to the bench to be addressed individually lol...also brings up another good point:
    • Intermissions
      • Why is there literally nothing between periods?
      • What a huge missed opportunity for immersion building
      • EA SPORTS - Do you guys even like hockey??
    • Gameplay
      • A defensive minus for plays you were nowhere near
      • Giveaways for dumping the puck if you use pass or shoot instead of the dump button
      • This game has NO idea what is or isn't a good line change.
        • The same change will get evaluated different. Completely arbitrary.
    • Perks
      • Why would a new watch help my passing or defensive visibility?
      • This is what you thought people would want? We're here for hockey you idiots.
        • This isn't NBA or NFL where the best players are very rich and flashy
      • IF YOU WANTED TO ADD TO BAP YOU COULD DEVELOP PRACTICE TIME
        • You idiots have it right now as a selection box lol. 4 HOURS for wrist shots lol k great thanks
        • You could make practices fun, like ASG skills competitions, tug of war, weave drill ... whatever ...there are so many options other than picking vacation homes.
    • Crowd
      • They usually have the intensity of a Mecum Live Auto Show but during a BAP sim they literally don't react. Like even if its playoffs and the home team just had a huge comeback during the sim they'll be as quiet as ever
    • BUGS
      • Everywhere
      • Stats, coach's challenges getting finished but still losing likability, announcers constant saying stuff thats nonsense
    • James Cybulski
      • Shut up.

    Need advice for a franchise player!

    Posted: 26 Jan 2021 10:23 AM PST

    Hey everyone, I'm a longtime franchise mode fan, it's the only thing I play when it comes to EA's NHL games. I dabble in be a pro but I for the most part stick to franchise. The last game I bought was NHL 19, that year I decided to skip buying it every year and wait for some actual change or for the games to drop in price. So my question is, fans of franchise mode, which game is the better choice to buy 20, or 21? How big of a difference are those two from 19? What all has been updated the last two games? Thanks for the help!

    World of Chel energy rationing

    Posted: 26 Jan 2021 10:46 AM PST

    Anyone have a good methodology for how to not always be skating with red levels of energy? Do you glide every now and then when you're the farthest back? Especially in 3v3 it seems like I'm always hustling both ways and have no gas left in the tank.

    EASHL Matchmaking

    Posted: 25 Jan 2021 08:12 PM PST

    What is up with matchmaking during playoffs? Why are we getting dunked on by teams that are 5-10k CR higher than us? The game has a system that tracks how good someone is but doesn't use it to match make games.

    Just frustrating to get paired up with smurfs all month because of this garbage playoff format.

    Be a Pro: Players Changing Teams for No Reason & Other Oddities

    Posted: 25 Jan 2021 05:18 PM PST

    I just have a couple questions dealing with Be A Pro. I've searched regarding the first one but don't seem to have any answers. These are sorta beyond the usual complaints but I guess point me in the right direction if you know the answer. 1. Why do they trade players all over the place when you start? I've attempted multiple instances of BAP and for whatever reason, they trade guys inexplicably and really set my roster up for failure. 2. I have an injured forward and instead of bringing up another forward, they're using a defenseman on the 4th line. 3. There is a serious issue with teammate Defensive AI vs opponent defensive AI. They're both set evenly at the default levels. Your team's defenders are never in any rush to cover the net, get after the puck, get after a man rushing the zone. They basically invite the defense to pin them against the boards EVERY time they have the puck near there. However, the opponent's defensive AI (playing on pro) seems to be flawless. They are at my neck constantly. They always know where to be and always knock me off the puck. I have to work my ass off to get a goal whereas it seems they can just get through my defense like Swiss cheese. 4. No consistency. Some games are extremely challenging. Well beyond the norm. Games often end up with 7+ goals. My goaltender is absolutely useless. His stats are horrendous. But then occasionally he's lights out but that is very rare.

    I'm sure this could be beating a dead horse but the Be A Pro complaints I've seen haven't really been about exactly what I've mentioned and more about the storyline, repetition, dullness, etc.

    Chel 19 vs 21 comparisons

    Posted: 25 Jan 2021 12:42 PM PST

    I have the itch to play 6v6 drop ins, but can't get into any in 19. So my question is... Is anything different besides the menu color? Is everything the exact same from player head/hair/beard, to player archetypes & traits, to clothes and gear? Did they add a few or a lot of new things to choose from/unlock?

    Is buying NHL every year just unlocking the exact same stuff every year + whatever gameplay updates they add? (This was the case with NBA Live 18 to 19, with updated gameplay. I basically played that game every day when it was released and it seemed they were releasing clothes i already had in 18 throughout the entire year)

I tried other games on my Xbox and it works fine , I'm wondering if I should maybe do a reinstall ? Thoughts ?
