Hi guys. VP of EA here. Apologies, we hired an intern and he didnt know how to copy/paste last years game for NHL25. Dont worry, we have a team of interns working on your 80$ roster update right now! Oh and good news, only 43 critical bugs and clithces at launch this year! Yay!
You guys did such a good job with EA nhl games up intill nhl24 nhl24 is so bad I can't even play it anymore I've been playing for 15 years but nhl24 is just so bad sorry
According to a couple reddit users and people on the EA NHL 24 forums, EA is around 2-3 weeks behind schedule on their marketing so that’s why we haven’t gotten anything yet
Im sad that they didnt just scrap nhl 25 and actually rework the game. For nhl 26 ofc. But hey, in NHL 25, i would actually be able to create myself (in terms of age, im a 2009 baby)
I really hope NHL adds franchise mode leagues outside the NHL. I think Sweden would be really good because there are 2 different Swedish leagues in the game and you could have promotion/relegation just like in Fifa. I also want the CHL in the game where you have to keep a good team while your stars leave for the NHL every few years
@@themetalicious7195 The AI is seriously busted in every mode. Your own guys constantly coming together like magnets and preventing movement at all. They also clutter up the net front so you're shooting against 8 defensemen. Sometimes they even step in front of your shot to block it intentionally. It's ridiculous. The gameplay is hideous at best.
@@vinylrecords4452 agreed the worse part is the freaking 172kg snipers skating by and glitching on a breakaway if your an elite forward you cant miss a pass or else this happens
My prediction for the schedule: Aug 17-Trailer Announcement Aug 21-Reveal Trailer (Matthews is on the cover again) Aug 22-Gameplay video with gray footage of NHL24 showing how stupid the AI was and how they tried to fix it Aug 28-New broken X factor announcement video Sep 4-An hour long video about new hut rush features Sep 12-World of chel updates and new battle pass system announcement Sep 20- Ratings reveal starts Oct 2-A 2 minute video about the minimal changes they will make to franchise mode and BAP Oct 4-Release
@@VasyRosterUpdates exactly.....that's why I feel in my heart nothing dramatic has been done & even if it has I can almost guarantee it's incomplete & isn't functioning correctly n will need a patch the day the game is released like always so I'm not expecting to much I won't be pre ordering the game this year like I didn't last year either my faith in EA is completely gone n most likely I'll wait until the game is free like I did 24 but I'm to the point I can't justify the $70 anymore
@noslipups3657 ya I totally get that, it'll be interesting forsure to see if anything of note is coming. You'd have to think the resources went somewhere but we have been saying that the past couple years to
Release is not late when looking at previous years as per the video. From NHL 21 to NHL 24 the trailer was released on August 24/19/25/16 - in that order, so according to the pattern we should see a trailer on August 24th or 25th. Maybe they will break the pattern? My guess is they won't.
Its hard to say though as last year they announced the game back on August 8th, which was pretty early in comparison to the prior years I don't know if the 24th or 25th would work this particular year just due to it being a weekend, could be wrong will have to see!
This is the most likely scenario according to previous trailer releases. People are just turning their gears to try to force an early release - they do it EVERY year.
If the gameplay is anything like NHL 24, avoid at all costs. At best NHL 25 will not be worth a full price game. If they charge any more than an upgrade price, walk away.
I highly doubt it, but I wonder if they’re actually putting work into the modes that need it, like Be A Pro and Franchise and that’s why we haven’t heard anything. Perhaps that’s why they’re behind schedule. I doubt it, because it’s EA and typically sports games these days aren’t innovative anymore, very copy and paste. My expectations are very low, but I really hope they have changed things with this game. Either way, I’ll still get it because it’s the only hockey game made.
The last one I bought was 23, I will not buy another until they revamp this game. All they focus on is what makes them money. They’ve completely ruined it in my opinion
I wish EA actually kept their word on their promise and made a discord server so they coyld let us know about any issues. Also, do you ever plan on making one in the future?
Ya, absolutely. I don't know whatever happened to that, remember they announced it and it never came. I'll have to see, personally really don't use it very often but maybe down the road
At this point I’d rather have just an NHL that is a yearly subscription so I don’t need to waste money on roster updates and a active online player base. At least I don’t need to sit and watch the 30 minute intro to be a pro just to lose my process every year too
What news were you expecting? They changed the menu colors and did a slight roster update that all. You have to pretend Arizona is Utah in your head but you will be fine.
@@VasyRosterUpdates the hitting isn’t bad once u get use to it I jus think some of the hits can be unrealistic and be overpowering. Like I’ve been in positions where I’ll hit someone & they go flying across the ice & in the position I hit them in there no way the hit would be that powerful like yea maybe they will fall but there’s no way they would go flying like that because in the position my players in he wouldn’t be able to get that much strength not only that I notice when charging up a hit n I’m like a magnet I’ll charge up the hit n I’ll even get ready to miss the hit but the moment I let go my player will jus automatically glide to a player n hit them even if I was gonna miss
@@noslipups3657 they are incredibly unrealistic. But I played hockey for 20 years you don’t load up your hit, your on skates lol this ain’t football, you coast and brace or push forward like the old hit style. They just adding shit to nhl to test it for madden it seems.
@@VasyRosterUpdates the easy hip check is the worst, that used to take timing and skill now it’s a button. We need more skill based mechanics not baby the community who’s likely been playing forever
Im losing my interest in ea hockey .im not sure what ea is doing but season 6 of world of chel for the most,part has been unplayable. This game is getting bad so NHL 25 is not looking,good anyways
@@noslipups3657 I know that but its getting worse when ea patches the game it was not this bad when the game first came out. You out played a team your guaranteed to win now its the complete opposite and it just keeps getting worse
I wouldn’t care too much. Not like they put any effort in a copy past game. They only care about Hut and never seem to fix world of chel. Even in world of chel I’m sick of unlocking the same shit. Just let us build an arena with whatever and custom our jersey how we want without unlocking shit. Same game every year just with a tweak and shit music playlist. I rather have them remake nhl 09-14 and just do a Roster update. Those were the times to have fun.
Who cares the game gonna be trash anyway I’m not paying $80 for a roster update. There are so many great games coming out that this one doesn’t even matter..
If the trailer is released early, it’s a good sign and the game is gonna be good. If the trailer is released later, the game is gonna be shit!!!! We’re fucked !!!!
If you win a code on RU-vid, you can get this game for dirt cheap free. I wanna contest where you can get it for free. You have to enter codes when I’m not saying.😂😂
