Guest Gumballthechewy Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Yeah the fighting is awesome. I do wish they didn't automatically start after huge hits, but I guess it is realistic I've only seen one fight start on a huge hit and it was the first hit of my first game! But yeah, you lay out a star and there will be repercussions. What's your fighting slider set to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canucks3322 Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 The only difference is that now you can build relationships in events outside of the games and they effect your career oh thanks is it still behind nba 2k games like 2k11 12 and 12?

But yeah, you lay out a star and there will be repercussions. What's your fighting slider set to? I'm using the latest tuner set, I haven't played with any of the settings yet. I've had Kesler get into quite a few fights after dishing out a huge hit already oh thanks is it still behind nba 2k games like 2k11 12 and 12? I've never played them, but from the videos I've seen I'd say NHL is still behind in terms of the presentation. You don't see any cutscenes, you just see a box of text at the top of the screen and then you'll get more text boxes below it with your choices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiznak Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 How do you start a second fight? Two AI guys decided to scrap and while they were going at it another one came up and started jostling me so I started pressing every button I could but I just couldn't fight the guy.... Me sad now.... Just press the fight button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan6o4 Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 <p> I did that and I keep getting disconnected from the EA servers each time :/ . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan6o4 Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Nice I got around 9k pucks for playing HUT in 13. I barely even played it on 13. I doubt I'll even play it much on 14. I barely played as well & got 30k :DPulled some nice guys from a few packs as well and am at 200k atm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan6o4 Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 The worst part is going to be ranking all the way up to legend 3.... Again... As soon as my guy stops skating like a slug club is going to awesome. Also they got rid of the +1 and added +7 boosts in the hockey shop. I have a feeling you can get your guy up to the mid-80s now and not just high 70s. I'm at ss3 atm and 74 overall so it's probably going to be low 80s again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DollarAndADream Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I'm at ss3 atm and 74 overall so it's probably going to be low 80s again How many GP is SS3? Sounds like you've been playing off the hook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tangelos Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I'm at ss3 atm and 74 overall so it's probably going to be low 80s again But I'm gonna buy all +7 for every slot. I'm sure you can get your guy to like 83 if you crank up defensive awareness. Defence is likely to be low 90s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tre Mac Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 +7 boosts @ $2.40 per x 12 and you're looking at over $26. Most are pretty easy to unlock with the exception of getting 35ppg in club, that could take awhile. I m just going to get the PLY boost pack, its' about $3. Highest fwd I've seen in drop-ins is 77 so far. I know overall means nothing buts thats the highest so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rozzy Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 getting the game courtesy of EA home play test no money out of my pocket for the 2nd year in a row for EA Ditto You guys get your copies yet? Still waiting on mine to show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 The only thing that frustrates me is how the AI seems to be able to score at will sometimes. Just like how it was in NHL 13 In my season right now. Luongo has a GAA of 1.80. So I should be winning a ton and he should have an awesome SV% right? Wrong. His SV% is only .885, and I'm 8-5-1 If I play on rookie I win every game by a crazy amount, but if I play on pro and outshoot the AI 2-1, I lose.

Guest Gumballthechewy Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 The only thing that frustrates me is how the AI seems to be able to score at will sometimes. Just like how it was in NHL 13 EA has too much emphases on online to care about decent AI so they make it able to cheat. It's a pain in LTL trying to be decent defensively when they just score at will. I've played five games so far and I won one 5-4 the others my team lost by usually 4 or 5 goals, one game was 2-9. Then again I am playing for the Giants! Honesty though, I'm still getting use to this game, the skating feels a lot diffrent than last year to me, once I get the hang of it I can defend pretty well actually. And I can hit again this year! I can finally be a power forward again! Hooray! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think my problem is that I chase too much when I defend, but on the flip side if I just stay in position they just dance around the AI teammates and score that way I guess I just need to play it more. I've haven't really gotten into an NHL game this gen even though I've bought them all. I've just played them casually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, it'll just take a while to get use to it like you said. It was the same for me last year, sharp learning curve. I loved 13 except you couldn't hit if you're life depended on it yet they could up end you like nothing! Either way I'm enjoying the game! I m just going to get the PLY boost pack, its' about $3. That's what I do, then you just play enough and eventually you'll unlock the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c00kies Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I think they fixed the block shot check, you used to be able to use it to hip-check people without taking a penalty, but now you get called for tripping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
