NHL 09: When a Man Loves a Patch

While most sports developers tend to roll out patches that amount to little more than a type of "cosmetic surgery" that fixes bugs, glitches and other technical issues, EA Canada has taken its post-release support of NHL 09 beyond the status quo. The studio has put out a pair of patches that have addressed the game’s technical flaws and also addressed some of the serious gameplay flaws that had gradually brought the online community to complete ruin.

Spot-on and great title, although it could be easily misconstrued...

Re: NHL 09: When a Man Loves a Patch

NHL10 is going to be sick. NHL 09 is so much fun to play, whether it be vs. the computer, vs. a human opponent, or EASHL. The replay value is so high, higher than any other EA Sports game currently out, IMO. All 10 needs is goaltender work, board play, and a deeper franchise mode. I'm excited.

Agreed, penalties may be just a bit too touchy, but rather have it that way, then constantly being lined up and delivered to my maker with no penalty.

The "drag shot" goals are still there. Not sure which game you guys are playing or who you are playing. That's the only way our opponents were scoring. We were trying to play the right way and we could not win, but these people kept doing the same thing and winning.

The drag shot is definitely still there, but it has been toned down a lot in the last two patches to the point that it really only consistently goes in now when the goalie is being screened.

Used to, it fooled the AI goalies 90% of the time, whether they were being screened or not.

So yeah, it's been toned down, but still exists to some extent.
