Offline this game plays like a champ. Online? Completely different story. I've now played nearly 50 games online and all but maybe three of them were poke-check spam/OP hitting and one-timers. Not sure why I expected better but I did.

If you are looking for an enjoyable hockey game, then this is your game as long as you are interested in playing offline. If you want to play online then be prepared to throw all hockey knowledge out the window. If you can dangle and poke check then you are good to go.

I was fortunate enough to have received this as a gift instead of putting my money into the game. I had high hopes for online play but it is fool's gold.

I dont play online much and I agree with your statement but I always thought online and offline in all sports games should have separate sliders bases for the exact issues you brought up .

update , Ok Im truly amazed at what EA has done with AI and strategy this year as I fell behind 3-0 to TB as FLA and they became more patient not really conservative or a shell as its little things like this are subtle but blow me away with the detail , very impressive and I have both hu and cpu strategy maxed

Seems we can't even use team helmets for created goalies.

Some more Impressions as I been studying many parts of the game and today I was focusing on the hitting/checking on default and though a tad to powerful I understand why but if you take out that factor its really well done collision detection wise as Seabrook nailed Gaborik on a weird angle so his head lead the way and his helmet came and Seabrook went to one knee as Gaborik landed perfectly and spun on his side and back and I was left breathless of what I just saw !

I took 3 photos and a video in sequence and if I figure out to load them here I will but this type of collision detail is incredible to me and Im shocked more havent mention and no player through player everything was solid ?

Lol. I agree with a lot of what you say, as I'm also enjoying the game. But it's very hard to read your posts when there's not a single period in the entire thing.
