NHL 11 Rosters Arrive Tuesday, November 2nd

[Knac21]

The roster update is appreciated, but Be A GM is still useless to me!!!

I don't get why everyone is so surprised/outraged about the roster update. It comes out at this time EVERY YEAR. EA has stated every year that they wait until every team has played their 10th game. The reason being, after ten games a rookie cannot be sent back down to junior, therefore every team must decide to keep or send down rookies after game 9. EA doesn't finalize the update until these roster moves are made. It's the same, year in, year out, quit being so surprised and angered by it.

Actually you are 110% wrong. Ea never said that. Pop NHL 10 in and go check the first roster update date. It was within 2 weeks or sooner I do believe. Quit making up bs like the ea mods. Thanks.

Edit. NHL 10 first roster update October 7th of last year.

Just out of curiosity if you're so irate about all of this why are you still even playing the game and clogging up the thread with this argument?

And allow me to correct you. There have actually been a few roster updates for NHL 11 so far. Unlike NHL 10, though, you won't find them by going to the "Roster Update" option. However, like NHL 10, a full-fledged "start-of-season" roster was not released until the end of October last year. The reason last year is just as the poster you "corrected" stated (and why I put start-of-season in quotes).

who is irate? im not. i play the game with my buddies in the EASHL to get a great arcade NHL experience. i also run about 7 arcade leagues using the game as well, so it would be nice to have a roster update already. im not clogging anything up (although you seem to be with your post that has contributed nothing to the thread), im just pointing out that they had 2 solid roster updates out last year by now.

but just out of curiosity why do you even care what i post on the matter. you dont like it, ignore it or use the ignore feature.

correct rosters for nhl 10 were dropped on the 7th, then it was cleaned up a bit more with the 2nd update on the 29th.

with NHL 11, there were i do believe 2 post release, to get guys like Asham on the Pens etc. but was it like their first effort last year? nope, not even close. with that said, you cant even compare the 2, why? bc ea had 2 releases by now for NHL 10 after the "start of the season". for NHL 11, we have had ZERO..

Actually if you go by the updates for online games, which you can save for offline use, there have been I think at least 3.
