i agree, commentary at this stage is not sounding that great, though it is nice that its doc and eddie but doc needs to sound like he does when he commentates Real NHL games, with the intensity and stuff.

NBCSN vs NBC

Presentation, graphics, skating, physics, stick handling, goal celebrations all look really good.
Goalie animations need to be a huge focus next year.

I like what I see, but not what I hear. I hope Doc livens it up a bit in the right moments because this sounded too subdued.

It still looks to me like it's the NHL14 engine in terms of physics and movement.
Don't get me wrong, the graphics look great, and the new commentary is a nice welcome.
I'm just really hoping sliders actually have some affect this year, and that a lot of the issues i see in terms of the shooting and player/goalie movement are legacy issues from the game still supporting last gen.

Goalie movement and player skating look pretty much unchanged. It's still incredibly easy for almost any player to change directions, and for goalies to make odd saves and attempts. That last Florida goal where the goalie dives has looked terrible since it was added. The goalie doesn't really dive to the side, so much as it looks like he pretty much moves very little but just turns sideways in the air.
Honestly, it'll probably come down to slider effectiveness, and BeAGM improvements that decide if i purchase this year, or wait for 16. The game doesn't look bad, but graphics never bothered me on the PS3. It's always been gameplay and the absolutely sterile BeAGM mode that have left me bored after a few months.
Hopefully i will be wrong, because damn, the graphics look incredible.

I was looking sooo forward to Doc.

But he sounds robotic. No excitment in his calls. Commentary doesn't flow at all.

Extremely disappointed. (

sliders have always had a great effect on the game, especially if you play on Hardcore game style. I agree with what you said about goalie movement though. We desperately need some new goalie animations.
