Would you say the speed is even faster than when played on the highest speed setting?

Faster games usually means bigger hits, high-octane offenses, and more appeal to the casual fan.

With stats being even more available, detailed, and maybe even overhyped, people want to see numbers. There are fewer and fewer people who can enjoy a 1-0 pitching duel in baseball, a 7-6 defensive struggle in football. I've always been one for realistic stats in games, and I'm a huge sports fan all around, and I can't find anyone that still enjoys some "old-school" type games, for lack of a better description (and I'm only 26). Also, the increasing popularity of fantasy sports may have an effect.

That said, I love creating myself as an 18-21 y.o. rookie in all simulation sports games I play, which is just about all of them (except Madden since you can't so I don't play that this year), I am highly involved in fantasy football and I'll admit more points and faster play usually translates to more exciting, but I still enjoy a lot of parts of the all sports that most would consider "boring" and those like me are few and far between.
first thx for your smart comment. Don't think this forum needs to know hockey's played on ice and not on dirt.

My point is with online settings, the pace is a bit to high compared to real life. I've done some basic measurements with real videos and by example blue line to blue line skating seems faster on the game. I like the game except maybe two little details. This one and the fact defender are giving up blue line to easily when I'm entering offensive zone.

I put the acceleration and speed up a couple clicks from default. Default is way too slow compared to the real game.

Re: NHL 13 Tuner 1.04 Available, Details Included

I think game speed comes down to personal preference if I may jump in for a second. I for one love my hockey fast (if you've ever tried my 2k10 sliders, they are all on the fast side). I like to simulate quick reactions and decision making opposed to exact skating times (even though my times were on par with All Star Game fastest skater, it made the on ice super fast).

I find playing at, what people call, "sim" speeds are a little slow. I am happy with default 13 speed but sometimes would like a little kick up. There is nothing like real hockey (you guys that play know) the decision making has to be quick.

Much like watching an MLB game on TV....how slow does a 95 mph fastball look on tv??? Ever stand in on one?

Bottom line is some like fast, some like slower, some like perfectly accurate and there is room for all as I really believe (and have had this discussion many many times) that sim is subjective, how one percieves the sport at hand.

Some people want to keep stats in realistic numbers when using for example 12 minute periods. Its pretty difficult task with default or even higher skating speeds. So one cares about how does it look like on the ice and other one looks at stats and then there's people who try to mix them up. Luckily there is sliders, although there should be more IMO.

Just tried it now when my game works normally. Played in Play now with default skating sliders(speed 3, acc. 3, attr. eff. 5). Everything ok, nothing close to that speed what i've witnessed for example last night. Then I hit pause and change gamespeed slider to maximum, it felt just like yesterday when my game went crazy.

Wasn't trying to make a 'smart' comment if it came off that way. The pace of the default settings are definitely too fast for my liking and I've been playing on game speed 1 with acceleration sliders both at 1 which has been playing well for me in BaGM/BaP. The fact that you can't change them online is what deters me from playing there.
