NHL 15 Might Be Missing More Than We Anticipated (XB1/PS4)

[extremeskins04]

You can't draft your own players? You can't do fantasy draft either?

Yep, passing on this title. Definitely not worth the $60 pricetag. I don't care how good the gameplay is, if there's no drafting your own players you can't build your franchise up, then there's no reason to play Be a GM mode.

No buy from me.

Just canceled my pre-order. I could handle some missing online modes, but no Season mode outside of Be a GM? No skipping to next shift in Be a Pro? I can't pay $60 for an unfinished game.

I work in software development, so I understand the challenges. I can't blame the devs, but the business decision to release a game that's so far behind the last iteration is pretty disingenuous.

very disappointing…

That is awful! That seriously is awful to me. They had this feature correct in the original Playstation versions of the game!!!

Playing the Demo, I wanted to support them for at least making a decent game to play on hardcore. but I can't, I can't justify 60 bucks on this. it's not even half a game, it's a 1/4. This game should have been cancelled because it's not even close to being half complete.

Why would they cancel it? People will still buy it. Heck people here at OS have made that evident. They don't release a game and they get no money, they release one that is stripped down to a barely functional product and they get some. With their budget, that some speculate must be minuscule, then releasing any product with an NHL logo on it will net them something worthwhile in return.

Until the game simply doesn't sell there will be no need for them to change this formula.

game should have been delayed to get some of these features/modes back in , if they were scared of losing sales because of a delay, look what has happened now. there probably goin to lose more sales now then if they were to put out a full featured game let say one or two months later.

Well said my friend, honesty would have also went a long way with this whole ordeal as well. For me, the first thing that chapped my *** was no united center (not a big deal, but still pretty petty considering the hawks status) then the announcement of no EASHL, then this EA Access debacle and we learn that there's literally nothing left of the game. It is obviously super tough to justify buying this game at full price after yesterday. I also feel for the people who still are playing on ps3/360, they get absolutely nothing this year besides new commentary, which is a trivial feature to a lot of people. Im also pretty sure they don't even get the NBC stuff. Sitting around waiting for them to patch up the next gen version is pointless because we don't even know what that entails, but they damn sure as hell do. This was obviously the plan all along and something they have been dreading to talk about. I should've known better, the first sign being that trailer with just a red wings jersey and all the early question dodging.
