I hear you, any game that doesn't let you, well, play the game aren't good. If you can't play the game, there's no reason to buy it and continue to support the series. Luckily, I haven't had that issue, only a few here and there...

Do you need to have the most-recent tuner for the Patch to take affect? I've been playing with Tuner 1.1 as I didn't think 1.2 was a good improvement for offline players, and with my settings, I am getting a nice number of penalties on both HUM and CPU with 1.1.

QB, can you explain a little more about the manual line change issue that someone else spoke of? Is it a delay or something with the button presses when making a change? Does it affect the game in a noticeable way?

What is the "latest" tuner version??

I grabbed the patch and tuner update, but I don't know if it's 1.2 or 1.3 (or whatever the heck it is). Like Dan, I really liked 1.1 (hated 1.2 - too "ping pongy / arcadish") but grabbed what was the "latest" today and that seemed toned down. But I don't know if I just have placebo eyes... Thanks!

from what i remember reading the latest it 1.2. It should be 1.3 but they overrode the original 1.2 with this one. I will look to see where I read that....

definitely noticing more scoring from the CPU...i had to adjust my goalie reaction speed up 2 notches....

i had one game where they scored 6 goals on 19 shots...pre-patch they were lucky to get 2 goals on 19 shots...

I believe it was bad_philanthropy who mentioned it. BP said the line change box would pop up when it shouldn't along with the noise that accompanies it (which I dislike to begin with). I only played a few minutes of an offline game before we started playing OTP. So I can't give any feedback as I didn't even notice it in such a brief time.

Thanks guys... I had that that screen overlay come up once (I use mostly auto subs) and it was slightly annoying.

I'm noticing the goalies playing the puck a bit more. I'm toning down my goalie passing slider to 1 as I saw Brodeur come out HALFWAY in his zone which turned into a stupid goal for me. What I WISH the goalies actually did do was play the puck BEHIND the net much more frequently...
