Graphics are slightly crisper, the game just looks cleaner. the presentation is very lacking no different than last year. Game play feels much better. I mean I am losing offline games and losing bad. The AI seems better for defense, my AI seems very slow to react... I am seeing a decent amount of penalties, 2-4 for each team... So far I love the game, it is a challenge this year and I play on Pro and have for 15 years because this is the gamestyle that plays best to the player attributes, which I play 10/10 for attribute affects. No longer can I just sign on, power up and win a game, I have to work for it...

Typical d bag comment. Who cares who posts where or how many times. Operation sports is just for cry babies who want to complain about video games lol.

Well. Good. Bad. Neutral. That's the best review. Good) the pace is more realistic (slower) /graphics are cleaned up but not OMG so much better. Bad. Anything not HUT/micro transacted. Seriously getting a little much. The Neutral. Be a Pro / Create anything / Franchise. Stuck in Neutral. Those conversations are childish at best.

But.... (I can't believe I am typing this) the game actually isn't worse. HUT games I played were fun if not again mostly dated. You start your HUT in a CHEL outdoor (yes unchanged) rink. I hear a cha-ching for you fans of your favorite teams. No free arena. Boo EA.

I would rate it 3 of 5 Pucks. On the way up. Slowly. That soundtrack. Ugh. There are some songs that aren't half bad for unknown artists. Hope they get a boost from the game.

So a buy ? That's a tough call. If you liked last year, it might (huge might) be an upgrade worth the normal price. HUT Wildcard is a nice new feature. Let's see how stale it goes. 993a36ac-cf0e-4ff2-8c46-7bb3a130a789 (1).jpeg

Haha look in the mirror, we don't need 50 threads on impressions. Seems pretty simple and straightforward to me.
