What the heck are you talking about. NHL 16 is a good hockey game. Yes it has issues but it's the best hockey game to date. (Been playing the series since 98 which is still my personal favourite)

It will have all the patches but that's it. It's the same game.

Just to be clear...I have the EA Access version. The tuner and version in the game says 1.00. I originally downloaded this as a preview. Do I need to delete and reload from the vault to get the patched version?

Tuner will always say 1.00.

No, for some reason EA made the tuner choice only v1.00 and latest (which is 1.00 in the list despite updates). TBH I wouldn't be arsed to install NHL 16 free with EA Access, it's so bloody awful on so many levels.
