NHL 15 Leaves Fans Disappointed Again with Overhyped 'New Era' Announcement

[actionhank]

I've just never seen a company this out of touch with their fan base...it's beyond disappointing.

How am i supposed to hold out hope for NHL16, when NHL14 and 15 have been non-stop disasters of things being added that no one needs, while legacy issues continue to get ignored. It's insane.

The worst part of all of this is, it's 2014. There's more ways to get, and stay, in touch than ever before.

EA are completely out of touch with their customers, in general. This is just another bit of proof. How about actually listening to your players, EA?

Too much to ask? To us, no. To EA, probably.

Or any company will do...NHL game is ripe for the taking. EA lied to the consumers by saying that in 14, they didnt release for PS4/X1 because they want to release in 15 fro real New Generation experience. And what did they give to us......half empty game.

Completely out of touch with it's consumer base. It's like they think they can just say take this and like it, and won't have sale drop off dramatically.

Unfortunately, the reality I fear is that EA assumes that because it did so bad they no longer feel they need to dedicate time to it.

Also considering there's no rival game at the moment, there's no real need to improve upon anything at a fast rate.

One of the worst executed game releases in a long while. Not sure I'll ever buy another NHL game, I dodged a bullet by skipping this one.

What an absolute dumpster fire this game has been. Their latest "roster update" didn't even include all the players on teams. The best part of the whole thing was that their producer Sean Rfrhgbfehdhsdhwbd blocked me on twitter after i criticized him for the lackluster game (no bad words or anything pure feedback). They pump us HUT which maybe a 1/5 of the gambles plays, and don't have simple things like edit player. EA has had no real development while 2K did well with NBA 2K15. The worst part is you know EA doesn't care, and will still keep the same team to make the game. Their producer is arrogant, and is what is holding the series back. As a die hard, life long, season ticket holding hockey fan I gotta say I won't buy the game next year unless there is massive improvement.
