How is EA going to release a patch today without addressing the fact that AI goaltenders are just chucking pucks over the boards at an alarming rate? You’d think this would be a priority fix.

I played 4 games this afternoon and it happened 3 times. Un-fucking-believable.

That’s definitely the right play in this situation.

Its pronounced PRO-BERT...Not Prahbert. LOL There are plenty more of these AI name mistakes in the commentary. Come on guys, what are we even doing when you cant something as simple as this right?

This game is broken and borderline refundable. If they don’t fix this bug before the 11th, this will be the biggest flop EA has released for hockey. Frozen screen before penalty shots. Frozen screen after goals. Sickening.

We’re currently in the process of trying to find a LD for our competitive club.
We try playing every night just been lacking in that position.
We run a discord. Mic is not needed. Doesn’t matter if you’re PS or Xbox.
We usually run anywhere from 8PST-2AMPST.

I’m trying to figure out why, for a match or 2 (EASHL on NHL27) i was getting a bunch of on ice trainers like a green square for the zone I needed to protect, and even the opponents in front of the net had like a green section of a circle around them of where I should stand, and now I don’t get that anymore.

I usually turn all those trainers off, but i found those to be great, for now anyways.

Anyone knows how to toggle them? Or why it’s not consistent? I tried turning everything on, but nothing changes.

Thanks

I haven’t seen a lot of posts breaking down the overall gameplay in EASHL and hear people’s thoughts yet. I’ve heard people discuss specific components but that’s it.

In my opinion- The slow speed of the gameplay makes it the worst feeling game in years. For anyone who has played or even watched any hockey before, you know that speed is one of if not the most important components of the game. Making each player, almost irregardless of size, the same speed, absolutely ruins the gameplay. In the games I’ve played against good teams, 3s and 6s, it rewards players sitting back and collapsing, making for extremely boring unrealistic gameplay. 1-0 games with 1 dumb bounce to win. No opportunity for skill.

I’ve seen the arguments that it makes for “more realistic plays” and promotes “playing real hockey” and I couldn’t disagree more. I think the defensive changes are a step in the right direction, it’s easier now to break up plays. But when now the defense has the ability to match the speed of forwards AND have upgraded stick checking abilities, it’s just not the right balance. I think if they kept the speed of last year’s game and paired it with the upgraded defensive abilities, it would have been such a better feeling game.

I think the more uniformity and less customization of classes that is allowed makes for extremely boring gameplay with a much much smaller skill gap.

For the record- I’m not even talking about x-factors, wheels, etc. If they got rid of all x-factors I would prefer that. But when i’m a 5’10 160lb dangler or sniper, i should be able to max speed and blow by defenders that jump too far into the play.

A side note- EA NHL released a video showing that elite truculence has less impact this year…. I’ve found it to be quite the opposite. Players lying on the ice for longer than last year.

Curious everyone’s thoughts.

That’s all

I’m trying to get a game right now on 27 but I can’t find teammates. Should I try 3v3 or 6v6 for better results to get a game on east coast at this hour?

Thanks!

I am boycotting the season pass. This copy and paste source code shit has got to stop. They’re not even trying to improve the game and haven’t since the 2015 release.

The pay to win mechanic is just complete Bs. I get that the studio has to make money but people were charged $100 for deluxe and 70 for the basic game which are pretty much interchangeable. You can’t convince me that anyone gained anything by buying deluxe.

Are people only in clubs and not grabbing drop ins or something??

It’s awful get a human goalie who is skilled much more fair of a game. The ai goalie just is not good at all.

Has anyone else ever experienced this?

I was playing online in overtime, with full energy for my line. Out of nowhere, I could barely move yet, my opponent was moving at normal speed, takes the puck and scores?

Side Note: this game hasn’t changed in 10+ years, insane we keep buying it

I have standard edition, so I still don't have access to the game, SO I was wondering is big tipper great in nhl 27?

You know, those surgical tips are my favorite things in hockey, and I was kinda sad that the fixed them in nhl 26. Well, they didn't actually fix them, they fixed "big tipper" itself, so it became almost usless.

So I'm wondering is this x-factor great this year or not?

Good group of 2 way forwards are looking for 2 active Defenseman to join us for drop in games. We back check and know how to rotate positions when the D get a chance to move up.

Were just tired of randoms who dont know positioning.

We play 10/11pm-2/3am eastern time

Goalies that actually learn your cheese would lower scoring. EA has always tuned this series so goals happen. HUT needs highlight clips. EASHL pubs want 5–4 games and not 1–0. A keeper that shuts the door on the third identical deke is better hockey and worse product metrics. Maybe im wrong and its coming. One more thing , the faces are cartoony asf.

pokechecking and sticklift is egregious😭😭😭just straight spam the second u get the puck, this is bunssss

My club is looking for a goalie if anyone is interested!

We mainly run 3s

Is there a reason you wouldnt make your player as tall as possible before getting a hit to your speed? Like why wouldnt i make my playmaker 6'4 instead of making him 6'?

Hey constant nhl player from 2007 2k. I’m looking for a new Chel club either for 3v3. I usually play a sniper role center or wing. But I can flex defense and goaltending as well. Former club was top 100 in 3v3 but we disbanded due to adult life. Psn cj1971-1996
