Updates

It's definitely gotten better since release.



Speed has brought to a reasonable level.
Goals are pretty well set up.(The highlights for the goals are realistic goals, if that makes sense)



Some things that are still....not ideal.


A lot of peewee style hockey(everyone going to the puck instead of respective positions and/or open ice)


Defenders hanging right on top of the goalie(might just be a visual thing)



Defensive positioning and logic is inconsistent, too many times players will leave their reasonable position and head for the puck carrier, leaving a huge gap.


Defense is still not joining the rush(hang out their side of the center ice a lot)


I'm gonna be getting more clips of it as I'm streaming and probably do some sort of compilation with commentary to help out.

I agree with all this. I still think it's weird that the number on scoring from defense is so low. Makar has a maximum of 2 goals per season for me. Needs to up this. It feels like the shots from defense is too slow and just can't score because of that. :/

Nick, if you just want to send me timestamps for your Twitch vods, go ahead - that'll save you the trouble of editing clips out of them.

Another thing I've noticed is teams making line changes when the other team have possession and are attacking their zone.

2D is indeed becoming better, but I still see too many players skating alone into the offensive zone being circled by 4 opposing players without passing the puck to other players. That could be looked into.

Another thing I would love to see is 2D highlights instead of full match, but I suppose we will have to wait for another version.
