NHL 14 - Be a GM and GM Connected Improvements

[shogunofharlem3]

Was hoping for custom sliders to be set as well. I use a set for my buddies and I in 5 vs. AI coop and then I was in two leagues, I had to keep switching sliders, every.....freeking....game.............ugh.

Was also hoping they'd allow for multiple GM's per team. Let me explain. My 5 buddies and I play on the same team (Bruins) in a coop GM Connected. We are game to play alot, but we are all old and to get 5 guys is tough. We want to bang out a season, whether it be 5, 4, 3 etc of us. But unless the GM is there you can't start a game.

Would be nice if you could mark your league as Coop, and allow any team member to start games.

Speeding up the GM Connected.............thanks. It only took me 7 hours to sim between seasons!

I'm still dead red 2k10 guy, but the allowance of a 5 man coop is the only thing that interests us. Only show in town, so what can ya do.

Well maybe the trade difficulty option will make it so the cpu doesn't make the awful trades. I agree that the changes aren't much to get excited about though. What I'm looking forward to most is improved hitting, penalties, and skating. If those are as promised, the game will be fine by me. I'm not expecting major things when new consoles are getting ready to drop and those are likely be the main focus from here out. Hopefully, they get it right and sooner for those consoles.

I completely agree with this... has been my feeling since it was announced that NHL 14 won't be next generation.

The only way to get anything changed is by not buying the game. It's the only form of communication companies understand. I have been guilty the last few years, not being impressed but caving eventually, buying into the hype and buying the game.

I really hope this years NHL game is the lowest in sales for the series to give them a serious kick in the a$$, but I doubt it...

Another thing I wish was in the game was the ability to edit players overalls in gm mode. I'm so sick of weak draft class after weak draft class. It would be a pain to have to do even this but it would be a quick fix for ea that wouldn't require too much effort...

Anyway....anyone who is reading this. If you are tired of the lack luster effort from ea, don't buy it! Send a message! Don't cave in!

while i agree with this a bit, if we dont buy it guess what? EA will just say piss on the NHL and not make a game. is that what we all want as NHL fans?

tough call IMO..

for all the crap i give them, i appreciate the fact they give us an NHL game. just wish they would do more with it.

BAP - text interviews...and now this???

I guess those who are disgusted would find somehow kindness in their heart and buy NHL 14. Hit EA bad...don't buy until we see what we like being implemented in their series.
