Anyway this sure is unacceptable for a game that sells $CAD70 .
The game was obviously rushed.

Re: NHL 15 Might Be Missing More Than We Anticipated (XB1/PS4)

I was dead set on buying this game until I read a couple of these. I haven't bought an NHL game in about 3 years because I'm not a huge fan but I wanted something for when Madden gets a little stale, but the following are all game breakers for me:

No tournaments
Automated drafts (!?!?!?!?!?)
Can't play minor league games
No Fantasy drafts
No minor leagues in Be A Pro
No option to sim to next shift (this is absolutely egregious and is tied for auto-drafts with biggest thing missing for me)

That's just honestly not a full game at that point. Be A Pro doesn't sound engaging at all, it just sounds like GM mode with fewer options and you are only allowed to control one play, and STILL have to watch the entire game. Be a GM doesn't sound engaging at all, because I can't draft my own team, draft my own rookies, or play as the minor league team to get a look at players.

EA has truly taken a step back in this whole progress. This really feels like transitioning from NHL 15 back to 09 or something (Although through NHL 12-14, it felt like updates rather than new titles).

I honestly feel bad for the people who bought the next-gen consoles to play EA NHL 15 only to find out that they've been stripped of many features. Yes, I understand that maybe some updates and patches, we could see some of the features back, but there are people who are impatient, and who knows when the update comes? Remember GTA promising the Heist? LOL, it never came!

I'm feeling so betrayed from EA. I just can't...

Even with the AI improvements, I still remember in NHL 14, the CPU's #1 move would be to shield the puck and go in. (lol). Looks like in NHL 15 they don't shield but they look like they sometimes almost go in the same direction except they try to pull off dekes.

I really hope NHL 16 gets a massive upgrade or something because I'm truly disappointed.

I was going to go to midnight launch for this game, but this is just flat out unacceptable. I may be a minority but I'm probably still getting the game (I really like the gameplay), but wow. No player editing, no period simming and no draft?! How the hell do you leave this stuff out?!

So it's not even possible to edit a roster and import it to be a GM?

Wow.

After getting all of the information in time, I have cancelled my pre-order. Hated to do it, because I was excited about next-gen NHL....but without proper features, I'm not interested.

All this "no'' options, we will get in couple years. Maybe decade?
For me, this is pre-apha version, but will cost us more then 50$?

Imagine if EA shut down the servers for NHL 13 and 14 forcing people to buy 15 at least on old gen if they want to keep playing the online modes???
