NHL 11 Title Update and Tuner v2.0 Available Now, Post Impressions Here (PS3, 360)

Game now feels like it is between 1.01 and 1.02 for me. Very happy, despite a 5-3 loss in my first game (Empty net goal, so only a one goal game)

It affects both.

And a welcome change it is. I feel like my 97 Defensive Awareness as a Defensive Defenseman means a lot more in intercepting passes now. I don't feel scared to jump a pass once in a while, now.

I would have 2 question for Redshirt concerning goalies...

1- If I play a regular game alone in my team, is my goalie related to the human goalie reaction speed slider even if he is controled by the CPU? I think so, but only to be sure.

2- Is the increase to human goalie acceleration in the last tuner also affects my team's goalie in a regular game even if he is controled by the CPU?

Thanks you once again for taking the time to answer our questions!

Just downloaded the patch, played and won two online game and neither counted toward my overall record although their still in the recent games played. Really like how it plays but since I mostly play online may not be playing this as much as I wanted if this is a long term issue.

Another couple of online games done and I am in love with NHL 11 all over again. It plays like a good solid game of hockey, no 2 games have been the same since the patch. Loads of different goal types, plenty of scrambles at the crease, hits seem spot on. It is no longer possible to deke around an entire team (Datsyuk excluded) and the puck is looser once again.

Is anyone else experiencing very low penalties offline? I've played 3 games so far and the cpu has not taken more than 1 per game and I'm playing with 13 minute periods.
