Great find, watching now!

So glad they said that the hits were amped up - because that shoulder to shoulder hit defied *ALL* known physics.

Agree +++

I watched it a few times on a frame by frame basis....oooch...I hope it's just an easy to fix glitch

I wanna see that jumping over the player feature.

I'm still kinda bummed that after the whistle, folks are still just standing around and doing nothing, while the goalie is in his looped animation. (Though, I'm interested how the new physics figures in during the scrums)

I too, want to see the jump deke in action.

I wasn't going to lead in with that but, yea, that one was hard to miss. That made me cringe a bit and like jemens, I hope they can tune the physics engine so we don't see unrealistic physics like that in the game.

With that out of the way, the good:

1. The manual between the legs move - Good stuff.
2. Manual jumping over players - Good stuff.
3. Puck flying up off stick on the ice during a shot - Good stuff.

Too many over the top hits.. looks like there's gonna be a hipcheck every 2 minutes in the game.. Still too easy to come into the offensive zone.. and even with the physics based hits there's still not enough "incidental" contact that happens so frequently especially in front of the net in the real game. About the dekes: He says "Richard Zednik scored a great goal where he jumped and put it in the net a couple of years ago" Key phrase: years ago!!! Yet you know it's gonna happen every game.

Don't get me wrong I'm still excited about all of the new features but I think most people are gonna be pretty dissappointed.. in summary, expect the worst hope for the best. I just think they get pressured to put new features in just to have new features and the core stuff in the game kind of suffers.
