first..hats off to this guy...makes me wonder if he's really out there to enjoy the game or just find the glitch goals and exploit it online?

if this is not corrected by EA...13 will not be much of a difference compared to other NHL series.

my only gripe in the demo:

1. Sliders - i was hoping that sliders will be included in the demo so we can really test out the game into our likings.

2. Penalties - so far i havent experience penalties on either side.

3. Kinda slow skating - i dont know if EA want it this way in the demo so we could see the speed difference of players which will make it difficult to observe in higher speed sliders (another reason why i want sliders to be in the demo).

How bad could this glitch be for offline or online.

As an offline gamer, I'll never use that move. And I don't believe anyone's seen the CPU use it yet either.

For online, I have a feeling this backward skate will be exploited in different ways, but for this particular goal, using a human goalie should help and I'm sure a good defense can stop it too.

What'll make me drop on the ground laughing is if we discover that checking someone who's doing that results in a hitting from behind penalty, hahaha!

Really enjoyed the demo this morning. Played it about 7-8 times I was pretty happy with the results.

Still somewhat frustrated with the defensive AI on your team that doesn't really make a play for the puck, but the demo felt challenging/realistic to me.

In my 5 or 6 games in HUT I got called for a penalty in 2 or 3 of them. I also got called for a penalty in the NHL Moments Live game.

And they'll tune it. This is a major reason I don't touch the EASHL. 95% of the online community pull crap like this all day long. Luckily I know the OS GM Connected league won't have this type of play.

The CPU had a couple penalties when I was playing. I had a few opportunities to run the PP. So it does happen.

I like the "slow" skating a lot more then the previous speed of the skating. I feel as though it's a lot more realistic and brings a better flow to the game.

Totally unacceptable. A lot of people were asking if this backwards skating thing was going to allow for a glitch goal, and there you go. I can't believe they never tested that. It isn't like that is some bizarre, random thing to try.

I'll probably still get the game just for the offline. For those who want to play EASHL or other online modes... better hope for a tuner set. In the EASHL the D will be playing "prevent D" at the redline just like in 09.
