Does anyone have an offline version of this update + the tuner they could send me?

I don't understand how people

Can call this the best NHL game in a while? I can't remember the last time I was this let down by a game. The lack of penalties, the goonish AI (A friend called this game GOON-HL 13, which feels about right), and the ridiculousness of the AI make it hard to enjoy this game sometimes. Goalies that stop shots that they have little-to-no business saving, let alone making a clean glove save, AI that backs off the defenders or passes the puck back and forth, rather than make a clean dump. And the frequency in which the nets come off the crease is insane, especially in ratio to the number of goaltender interference calls.

I just don't understand what people see in this game that makes it so stupendous.

Re: I don't understand how people

I understand much of what you mean. Im in an online GM connected league and I just finished playing a game against someone who was controlling the Islanders, and the easiest one timer goals were saved by almost jesus-like miracles, and front of the net scrambles with the tender laying down my players couldnt\wouldnt get the puck or would, I dont even know what to call it complete fail.

See the problem I find is, theyve made so many additions this year; so many improvements that arent even comparable to last year or any other year like the skating engine and the AI awareness of whats happening on-ice. Unfortunately, theyre contrasted by finding even more ways to stop you from scoring when they dont want you to, cheating AI, yet with all these improvements to the AI, I still have the problem where the AI is unaware I'm crossing the blue line with the puck and skate and stand directly in my way - dosnt happen as often but still happens enough to make me shake my head.

With everything EA adds, it seems to add more problems to solve. While the game is looking ever-realistic every year, and gameplay becoming more believeable, theyve found more ways to control the gameplay and caused more problems that need to be addressed.

All in all, I feel it is the best year yet, though I may hold off on next year's game.

I don't want any players hitting, pokechecking or especially strength rating boosted, not sure which of the ratings are changed with this slider for different player types but I highly recommend reducing this slider to middle position(3).
Yep Taku...I also have the attribute slider set at 3.

For myself now, I'm really not too sure how much of an effect the slider actually has...but I just don't like the idea of anything possibly boosting the player ratings beyond what they should be.

Imo anyway...there's always some question about the real value of some of the ratings in the first place. So I sure don't want to mess around with a slider that may add even more questions about things.

i dont know if this was posted already, but its worth the try.

since the patch, i notice that entering the offensive zone is so easy, the d-man always go to the center or away from each other or making an open lane on the side board for the player carrrying the puck.

if i remember it correctly, this was the opposite of what EA was promoting before...that is why at times its necessary to dump the puck or be creative in entering the offensive zone. my question is:

1. is there a way to adjust this (speaking of sliders), wherein the d-man could be aggressive enough not to have the open lane for puck carriers to enter the offensive zone.

2. is it possible to have the game pre-patch with tuner 1.04 only in the game?

Hey lads,


new member here with a quick question. After purchase my NHL13 copy I would like to arrange my own little league with all Canadian teams from the NHL and 3 AHL Canadian teams. My own Canadian Hockey League so to speak. Is this possible?



Not sure if this is the right place but it is not possible for me to create a won thread for this question (and maybe not even necessary).

I was given a used copy of NHL 13 for Christmas, here are my impressions.

-The new skating engine is the most overrated modification in the history of sports gaming.
-There are STILL not enough CPU penalties called in franchise mode. EA just doesn't listen to its customers.
-The game continues to be neither a simulation style game nor an arcade game. The developers are trying to catch two rabbits at the same time and catching neither.
