NHL Community Committee

[utp102]

Hey guys

The event was phenomenal, it was everything I expected.

The game is no doubt headed in a much better direction.

Now I'm not allowed to say a lot but here goes nothing.

In regards to EASHL, it looks awesome. There is going to be a whole new system which is crazy to think. It has a lot of potential to be a system that makes everyone happy and play very well.

As we learn more about what we can and cannot say I will try to relay more info.

They also changed the committee to focus on ALL game modes not just EASHL.

If you have any questions I'll try to reply to the best of my ability within my limit of what I can say. Thanks.

I heard this is to what we'd like to see change in nhl 16 now theres a couple things maybe have some similar features like opening presentations with the announcers like you did in nhl 15 for the xbox one/ps4 but have the similar features for the xbox 360 also maybe up the create a player make it more interactive, and if your going to have ray ferraro down near the ice doing reports actually show him thanks bunch.

How many of these game changer guys actually play defense? Will any defensive play be addressed in 16 or is it going to be hit or nothing again?
The puck needs to be really lose after its touched not continue the way of the guy with higher attributes. That is for both online and off and also the player changing needs to be looked at i don't think i can take another year of it the way it is. Can we please just get a switch to the closest to the puck or even a modifier and face buttons to match each position like we used to have in other games.
There are some truly brilliant things happening in 15 next gen but I'm always too frustrated to enjoy them

When can we expect to hear from our elected members again?

I have no clue, and as someone actually from this site who probably had the most knowledge (via Twitter) of the program, that's a bad thing to say.

I expect they'll be back around E3, when EA gives the go ahead to start down the hype train. I hope I'll hear more on twitter. I'll keep everyone posted, but there hasn't been much to be posted about.


By the way (don't remember if I posted this or not), here's the February 3rd recap video from YewyBearGaming, a committee member.

Based on what I'm picking up from Twitter, another meeting in Vancouver is happening, starting today.

EDIT: From B-Bunny and ThatPope on the EA Forums, the main purpose is to BETA-test the game.
