The total control is complete load of non sense. People with zero skill are able to pull off the hardest move in hockey arguably.. with ease. I've seen the move in real life pulled off maybe like 5 times. No reason it should be easy. The defense is basically voided. You can try to hit or poke check but Guys just skate around everyone that are trying to make checks. The computers are terrible or they are impossible to play against. Stick handling is slower and worse. I've never heard so many guys complain about finding a game or about how bad the game is. Time to figure your stuff out here! Fix it or maybe charge only like 20 bucks for it. Garbage game! It's too bad. I would love to return this game. Maybe just play other games. Don't waste your money on this hot pile of garbage. Congrats you've now completed ruining nhl. I don't even think an update would fix this because there's just way to much to fix. Did ea even try this game before they put it out. Very embarrassing on their part. It's not even just game play but also everything in between like playing in the eashl and every team only has black jerseys. Try to change and it doesn't work. Then sometimes my created character is playing other times it's just a default guy number 24. It's almost like this is the first year they ever made this game. I'm sorry but I could go on for a long time. I'm sadly disappointed at myself for wasting my money. And at the creators of this game. Bow your head in shame. I think everyone should go back to 23. Give them something to think about before charging 100 for basically what's in a can under my sink....GARBAGE 🗑
