EA Producer Blog: NHL 12 Gameplay

[scottyo60]

That blog read really good. Right now I am hooked on NHL 2K8. don't get me wrong I loved NHL 09 but 2K8 was my game. Im hoping that 12 takes that spot

This is great news! I'm really liking what i'm hearing about improved AI and player size and skill attribute effect. I know we've heard the "improved AI!" news in past games, but this one really points out EXACTLY what they're improving! I hope that they improved team timeouts and coaching strategies as well. Its all about the gameplay baby!

I'm in the same boat. 2K8 owns my hockey attention right now. Hopefully NHL 12 takes my mind off anything 2K.

Any word if EA is still planning on including NCAA teams with NHL 12?

Are the Sedin's going to go ultra soft in the playoffs in NHL12?

[LetsGoHawks]

Yea i agree with the sedins thing. If there is a player that i wouldn't want to captain my team in the playoffs, its him. He is ultra useless in the playoffs. That being said. NHL 12 is looking like a first day buy for me.

I thought the same thing. I was also underwhelmed by the defensive stuff (if players can still get around AI defenders 90% of the time with that stupid toe drag deke, I'm going to be annoyed), but other than that it sounds good
