That is the word on the street and most disappointing indeed if it turns out to be true.

Re: No option to draft in Be a GM?

This one is puzzling.
I really doubt that it's an intentional cut and it's probably a bug.

From Rammer Interview:
Quote:
SR: In Be-A-GM, you have the opportunity to control your own franchise and guide them to a Stanley Cup. All of the basics of the mode are there: there’s free agency, trading, and the rookie draft. You can play up to 25 seasons as well. The core of that mode is there.
It's impossible to release a mode called "Ba a GM" without the rookie draft as it's one of the most important function of a GM.

Anyway the game obviously needed at least another 6 months of development.

There is still a rookie draft in the game. You just are not the one controlling anything to do with it. So, technically he was not lying. You have to learn Rammer speak to decode what is actually be said sometimes.

I think you make a good point here. And while I'm not a computer game programmer it would seem to me that this might be something that's relatively easy to fix in a patch. And to be quite honest, this is something that I can actually look past. But it would definitely be nice to be able to scout and draft players that you actually pick out.

Okay...I hope that you understand that the NHL 15 for 360 is EXACTLY the same as NHL 14 save for some new rosters. There are no new features, no new animations, no new tweaks to gameplay....nothing. It is basically just NHL 14 with the number 15 glued over top.
Save your money and just keep playing NHL 14 with some (hopefully) new revamped rosters.

And on top of that NHL 14 was pretty awful.
