Redshirt one thing I would like to see fixed is a statistical problem. Say their is under a minute left in the game and a penalty is called it is not being included in the powerplay stats at the end of the game if it is not scored on . This was in last years game as well should be fixed most likely with a patch.

Any way to get this to my 360 without xbox live (with transfer kit)?

Anyone? Thanks

Here's a few tidbits what I've noticed in BAP mode with the new tuner:

Goalies: The goalies are much more human now.. sometimes they just straight up get out of position which is definately realistic and how many goals are scored in real life. Although In some cases they seemed to have a tendency to allow a bit too many weak goals on slapshots where they have a very clear view of the shot... but it's definitely not bad enough to be detrimental to the game play.

My only other beef is that the goalies are still too tough on superstar... on superstar I had a bunch of 1-1 and 0-0 games even with my goalie reactions sliders set to 0/0, but on all star I had games ranging from 4-2 to 3-2 to 4-1 to 3-0, etc. much more realistic scores.

AI: Seems to be varied and the computer will try some creative plays more often especially behind and around the net... although at the same time it seems to try way too hard for a one timer, which makes it a bit predictable at times.

The best thing especially in BAP is that your AI teammates seem to be on par with the other teams now, my teammates will actually crash the net when I take shots. They still have a tendency to pass it right back to you in traffic though.

I've barely played with 1.03b since my internet has been down all weekend after the snowstorm here. But I can say that if you download 1.03b, you won't be able to go back to 1.03a, as least that's what we were told.

quick question about AI learning. Does it affect the CPU on the offensive side? I know it is huge for CPU playing defense.

Is it me or has the online game slowed down more so since the last update? Also, I have noticed allot more non direct passes off the faceoff that sometimes go untouched out of the zone.

Yep. I see this quite a bit now.

The slapshot from right above and outside of the circle really should be fixed. Those things go in way too regularly with this tuner set.

In that example the "o" is the faceoff dot. And the goal goes in on the far post. It's crazy how often this shot makes it--it can be clear with no traffic/screens or there can be a pile of dudes that the puck just sails through; either way, the goalie takes a bad angle or the slapshot accuracy is just tuned too high.
