A lot of the gameplay changes he brings up are literally just gameplay slider adjustments you can do in all the previous game, they just come pre-adjusted in this one to make a "different" experience.

I would grade the visual improvements at "B", not great but not bad. I'm personally kind of a detail nerd when it comes to equipment on the players so i was a bit disappointed to see very little new equipment added to the game at launch but I do have a feeling they'll update this considerably through an update/patch.

Ah I disagree. I have been playing these games for so long now, an to me this was a waste of 100 dollars... yes 100 dollars is how much the base game cost here in Canada, I am just playing NHL 21.5. They don't have anything new in terms of goalie equipment, like the true stuff isn't there, still the same type of masks from NHL 14, Same stanley cup presentation since forever. Still the same free agent signing since 16 only have two teams to chose from with no negotiaon. NHL has a soild gameplay always has, but for $100 for NHL 22 when its all just a roster update... Don't buy please don't buy. The custom logos are still the same since 15 maybe even going back to 09.... there is so much they can add to make this a much better game than what it is. Give us back the option to play a full season in the CHL again, add the World Jr tournment to help increase our draft ranking, add a proper free like MLB the show has, Change the presentation to something new. I miss the way NHL 2002 pre game opening was. Use a stanley cup celebration like NHL 2K had, add a custom helmet maker for goalies and for when you create a team bring back the winter classic.
@robertross76662 жыл бұрын
it's embarrassing that half the goalies in the game are wearing the wrong gear, cause EA was too lazy to reskin some pads into the true graphic. Fine you "wanted to focus on improving gameplay" but at least give us the bare minimum and finish the roster update by putting guys in the right gear.

I wonder how good this game would be if the developers actually went to a hockey game and spent any time watching the sport. I appreciate that they got rid of the ridiculous animation of players flopping down whenever you touch their skate with your stick but the didn't address the fact that right after a face off, players will just rub up against each other. This happens all the time in this game. The computer will steal the puck from you just by rubbing against you while you need to hit them with a fright train to get the puck from them. I know you can adjust the sliders but, how about you try and make a realistic game without the necessity to adjust the sliders to make up for you developing a badly controlled game? I also appreciate that they made one timers less automatic that last year but they seemed to have gone a little too far the other way. The goalie will suddenly make the most insane leg save on an open one timer that defies the laws of physics. I also can't stand it when you can almost predict when you are going to get a penalty called on you when playing thr computer. The computer will trip your players quite a bit and there won't be a call but you touch the computer player's skate and he will go down and a penalty will be called. The presentation is great but I don't know what sport they were watching where players just rub up against each other after the face off and don't fall down or try and get around the other player. Oh well, I'll be well gone by the time EA hires competent people to develop their hockey game. I know I'll be dead by the time they develop a decent Madden game again.

I got injuried in the begining of the game and I simulatedm then, Toronto won. The following game, Buffalo was lead 6 vs 3, remaning 4:39, as a miracle Mathews "the cover game player" won the face off, beat all my team and scored. Toronto won by 7-6, 4 goals in 4 minutes (Does it happen in the real life?) The 7 games Totonto won, 5-4, considering 3 goals of simulation time. I played 80 games to be eliminated by a cpu handicap. That is bad, the graphics are amazing. Excellent visual, I got almost all trophies, but I strongly do not recomend this game.

Ended up uninstalling this game. The only mode I like is Be A Pro. Created a centre and the game will not let me play centre. Forces me into right wing or left wing. Created 5 characters and no matter what I do, I get drafted by Seatle and forced into playing wing. What’s the point in choosing a position if the game won’t let you play it.

Is it just me or does it look and feel like a slightly upgraded NHL19? The font, menus, the slower and more calculated gameplay, harder to snipe coming up the wing, harder to one T, the computer scores on the stupid back door feed over and over and I can barely get one of those to go. On my first game I kept pausing to check the gameplay slides because it felt slow in comparison to 21. That said, I agree with the positives you mentioned and I’m enjoying the added challenge. 6.5 or 7 out of 10

Thanks for your review I'm waiting until someone plays be a pro my entire purchase hinges on wether they still have scripted matches where myself and team are not allowed to score until 3rd period where you get a challenge "just get 1" where then the AI starts acting completely different than it did the first 2 periods & as a defensive enforcer I hated that the game wanted me to play like a 1 man team when all I want to do is check people into oblivion for coming near my goalie & get an all time career record for most time spent in the box for winning fights.(My character canon plays for Boston Bruins he thinks it's still the 70s)
