Skipping this year's. Read the ign review and it's pretty much the same as last year except a nhl 94 mode.

I don't like the NHL94 mode. The AI is no different than the standard NHL mode

Kinda sad how this will be the first NHL I won't buy since..NHL 93.

or is it more sad that I've bought every single nhl since 93?

Ah well. I played FIFA 2013 and now I'm a FIFA fanboi

I'm really hoping for good things for NHL15 for the bone/ps4. Not sure what having a newer system will improve, but I hope it will be worth the wait. I play less and less every year starting from NHL10.

going to pick it up anyway and give it a shot. need a game to play with buds when im tanked.

lol i dunno why i get suckered into buying NHL NFL every single year.. it's like small bug fix with graphic improvement ~~ oh well at least it only cost me $20bux and i can trade it back in for 40+ at ea ~~ why can't they make bigger improvement like they do on fifa??

anyone else having trouble with rules/gameplay settings not saving properly? it keeps reverting back to default values. i'm on xbox 360.

Good thing I didn't pick it up yesterday, it doesn't seem worth it lol.

I did but not so much any more.

I play a bunch of OTP games yesterday, random drop ins and club games and I noticed a large amounts of bugs that should have been fixed since most of them are simple yet would negatively impact the user experience. They finally got rid of online passes so that's a good thing for resell value

OTP finally fixed the 2 dressing room drop in shenanigans but finally putting positions in the first room which is good, bad part of that is since its new, no one knows that you can just ready up your team once you get everyone even though there are people still in the middle (ie. guys who won't play goalie and waiting to see if a spot opens).

EASHL looks to finally have copied FIFA in how they structure their league, using seasons and divisions with relegation and promotion through games won or lost. It's a good step towards giving something new to something that they haven't really touched in forever.

They got rid of the +1 boosts now (like anyone used them after unlocking the bigger ones) and went with +3,+5,+7 so instead of having a limit of +9 to an attribute, its now +15.

Wraparounds are a problem at the moment but the next tuner should fix that (hopefully) so watch out for cheesers spamming wraparounds and show them a Bertuzzi on Jackman behind the net.

Hitting and Fighting are the 2 big additions to this year's game. Both are better than the previous year overall but it takes some time to get used to them, I personally like them but big hits does trigger fights a lot or at least with the drop in people I played with

Seems like you accumulate EA pucks now in almost all game modes and can redeem them for use on HUT

Haven't tried GM Connected but they better fix the lag when going through just the front end stuff (gameplay was never laggy but in certain leagues you barely get gameplay and all front end only) Servers better not be farther away from North America like they did several years ago and dumped their servers somewhere in Central Europe cause it was cheaper

Overall, I'd say its a buy for people who are pretty hardcore about the NHL game (my definition of hardcore is someone who plays it a LOT, like getting their legend 3 in OTP within a week or 2, spending tons of money on HUT and so and so) anything less and you can probably get away with playing NHL13

Worst bugs I've seen so far is having a goal waved off, then called a good goal and no goal was awarded, all the stats said it was a goal, even end of game replay had it filed under goals ... stupid refs :P

I think it's easy to complain and be critical, but I think the changes make NHL 14 quite a bit better than 13.

HUT is much improved and I think the addition of seasons is pretty cool. Getting pucks for everything you do is also a nice addition and gives you more incentive to play HUT.

The shorter seasons in EASHL are sweet too, I hated having to wait until the end of the month for the playoffs. Like said above, I really like how they structured the new seasons and it feels a lot more in depth than before. Haven't dabbled in GM Connected yet but hopefully it's a bit quicker and smoother.

Skating / hitting / fighting all feel so much better and are a lot of fun. I was playing EASHL last night, got rocked and then my buddy came flying in to defend me. When I got up, I squared off with the other player and we were within each others screens having some good tilts. When it comes down to it, I'm just playing to have fun y'know.

:rukidding:

Anyone on here that's real active, plays EASHL and looking for a club? We're looking for a C and a utility player that can play all positions depending on availability. Check out my posting

I was in an 6vs6 OTP game and we were down 4-1 and everyone on my team quit except me so it was 6vs1. I came back and won 8-4 lol

It's a faster NHL13.

I actually like the hitting, the replays are pretty solid, especially when standing someone up on the blue line.

The fighting is much more fun too.

If anyone wants to play online versus - add me: dre_bones

Same thing happened to me the other day. Just a normal 4v4 drop in, down 4-0 in the first 5 mins, everyone on my team left but I stayed. Then magically cpu's become more smarter and I end up winning 5-4 lol. EA always surprises me :fullofwin:

Nice. I did that in 13, my team was a bunch of d bags. they quit when we were losing 5-0, I as left all alone and won 6-5
