Post any news you hear about NHL 16 here! Anything about the GameChangers, modes, or release date—post!

I'll start with the news that the GameChangers are ALPHA-testing the game in these next few days (confirmation: http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/li.../10290225.page).

Edit: they are Alpha-testing, according to this new video from GameChanger YewyBearGaming:




Not that the video says much.

TheClapperton says here that he'll be doing a Front Row Podcast to talk about the testing.

If there is no return of GM Connected, or an online league mode...I don't know if I'll be able to buy the game this year. Despite it being my favorite sport. Hopefully as the news begins to leak out, that is one of the "new" features.

There is no GM Connected...it's said they are moving on from that because no one played it. I don't remember who posted it but someone did probably like 2-3 months ago.

Sean Ramjagsingh, lead producer, stated that GM-Connected was out and likely will not be returning as a feature. Said that their data indicated that it wasn't a widely used game feature.

I personally feel it's out too, but still holding out hope for at least an Online Season mode.

Fantastic! That clears up space for what's really needed in this game!!
