Rex425 Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Pretty good. The commentary is mediocre and there's a glitch at the beginning(goalie's stats, nobody has OT losses) but not stuff that is really important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DollarAndADream Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 That Suter celly was very Kesler-like. I wonder if any of those celly's were the human controlled ones. They didn't look so robotic like in 14. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anti-Bettman Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I haven't bought into the rumours of no EASHL thus far but this has me a bit worried: Box art from Costco's website XBone: http://www.costco.com/NHL-2015-Xbox-One-Video-Game.product.100123482.html PS4: http://www.costco.com/NHL-15-PlayStation-4-Video-Game.product.100127446.html Maybe EASHL will be released in an update later on? 2k is doing that with "crew mode" for their NBA game.

ftmN Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Enjoyed the gameplay videos, don't really like the jersey sway they have when the skate, looks very unrealistic. AI looks like its improved a little bit but not much. Enjoying the commentary change up and especially the intros but I don't think it will be too long before its muted, hoping for a fine tune. Graphics looks really good, I did notice some lag/frame rate drop when it cut to crowds, hoping that isn't an issue in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Sestito Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Play that in splitscreen with the nhl 15 overhead gameplay. Other than presentation and graphics, the actual gameplay is the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoreanHockeyFan Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Skating looks comical in this game and Doc sounds terrible and un-excited. Too bad I'm still going to be buying this game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azzy Mahmood Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Wow. Awful pre-game from both guys. Worst play-by-play on any nhl game to date. Dreadful AI. Didnt even notice the puck physics or crowd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanIslander89 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Do we know anything about GM Connected being in the game or not? Me and the boys have been arguing about how if EASHL isn't in then GM Connected won't be either. I can't find it confirmed that it's in but can't find it saying it's not, was just wondering if anyone had a better idea. We got a $25 buy in at work and 24 guys going in on it, hoping to clean house this year haha. Thanks in advance guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desjardins' Mustache Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 For some reason the commentary and the sounds of the game remind me of madden 25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beluga Whale Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Not really impressed but I'll still buy it. Game play looked slightly more fluid at least but the commentating was painfully awkward and boring. From what I could see the A.I didn't look that bad, most of the big mistakes were from human controlled players. We will know a lot more when we get to play the demo.

Azzy Mahmood Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Theres one goal going north where the ai d stands pylon-esque as someone skates past him into the slot. Horrible ai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No_More_Larchide Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Lol, the amount of "AI looks horrible, but Ill still buy it" comments is laughable, and is the reason why these games dont get improved upon... You people bitch and bitch and bitch, and yet you still drop your money on it. If you really thought this way, save your money... There are other games coming out, in fact... the biggest game of the year comes out the SAME DAY. Just a thought, I will be buying it, because the presentation looks very good, because GMC (hopefully its still in there) is basically the reason I own an xbox, and I love the NHL series, despite some of its short comings.

EA has a monopoly on the NHL games, so if you want the updated roster and people to play with online you need it. The need for an up to date NHL game is the main reason, which can make the awful AI excusable. Luckily, EASHL prevents it from being a waste of money.

-Vintage Canuck- Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 So, I'm guessing EASHL will be in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c00kies Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 They probably had the game on pro, so the AI would be really bad on defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
