https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytkPcoi6VMw RELEASE DATE: Sept. 2nd, 2014 Next Gen Info: 12 Player NHL Collision Physics For the first time in any sports game, real-world physics affects every player through every on-ice collision with the new 12 Player NHL ® Collision Physics. Utilizing the power of the next generation consoles, and building off the critically-acclaimed NHL Collision Physics system, every player on the ice is governed by physics at all times. Feel the hard-hitting chaos of NHL hockey through true-to-life secondary collisions, net scrambles and player pileups, capturing the desperation of every shift. Translation: At least the hits will look funny when you're losing to the same glitch goal over and over again. Real Puck Physics The puck is one of the most complex items in the game to authentically replicate and it finally gets its due in NHL 15. Completely rebuilt puck physics result in a more realistic feel to every puck interaction. Everything on the ice, including the ice surface itself, is live which leads to the unpredictable and authentic puck spins, rolls and bounces seen in a real NHL game. Translation: Even more completely random bullshit that will go in favor of one team and not the other even though you're out hitting, shooting, possessing and passing them. Authentic Player & Equipment Models The Next Generation Hockey Player has been rebuilt from the ice up. Now player models have three distinct layers - the body, equipment, and jersey. Each layer interacts independently, making every contact with the puck or other players even more realistic. Dynamic Cloth technology adds an extra layer of realism as it reacts to the player’s movement as they explode up the ice, helping bring the speed of the game to life. Translation: Your edgy blonde/black EASHL character will look even more blond and more black. Also Dynamic Cloth Technology Unprecedented Player Likeness Powered by the same technology that brought the most realistic representation of the athlete to EA SPORTS UFC, NHL 15 delivers groundbreaking player likeness, emotion and animation. From the strides a player takes to get up the ice to the emotion on their face after scoring a game winning goal, the players are as real as they’ve ever been. Translation: At least 5 guys might vaguely look like their real life counterpart if you squint the right way. Superstar Skill Stick Now all the tools* of an NHL superstar are in your hands. The revolutionary Skill Stick has evolved to give even more control to the player. Protect the puck, receive passes without breaking stride, and discover an arsenal of sweet new dekes, all with an intuitive right stick control scheme that is easy to use but packed with depth. Translation: DANGLE DANGLE DANGLE DANGLE TOP SHELF CELLY *defense not included Authentic Arenas There is no feeling like being there, and we are giving you the best seats in the house. The power of the next-gen consoles finally allows the NHL franchise to capture every detail of an NHL arena. Unique arena elements from 19,000+ seat capacities to lighting and player entrance tunnels are captured with a level of detail not possible on the previous generation. Now those home games will truly feel like home. Translation: 4 arenas included at launch, 30+ arenas available as paid DLC New Commentary Team New voices for a new generation. NHL 15 welcomes the NBC Sports commentary team of Mike 'Doc' Emrick and Eddie Olczyk to the broadcast booth. TSN analyst Ray Ferraro will provide game insights at ice level. Combined with Real Life Broadcast Integration that will feature real-world pre-game video commentary with Doc and Eddie set against in-game visuals, NHL 15 takes a revolutionary step forward in sports videogames; where the lines between the real world of sport broadcast and the game are blurred. Translation: DRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE *mute* NBC Sports Game Day Presentation The most realistic broadcast package in a video game to-date is possible because of a new partnership with NBC Sports. Set the scene with the NHL on NBC crew welcoming you to the city during the game intros and immerse yourself in an experience that matches what you see on television with NHL on NBC graphics and branding. Translation: Check these ads out yo. Living Crowds NHL 15 sets a new standard in videogames with over 9,000 individual crowd models with 4x the animations of previous generations. Take a look through the glass and you’ll see fans hold up signs with your name on them, costume wearing superfans, or even sections full of team rivals rooting against you. Feel their behavior change after dropping the gloves, landing a big hit, or scoring a clutch goal. The crowd is alive. Translation: Boston fans actually throw nooses on the ice after PK Subban goals. Vision AI An elevated level of player intelligence, Vision AI features evolved awareness with players reading and reacting to potential plays. Scoring area recognition, pass anticipation, and enhanced team breakouts all improve the flow of the game. Translation: hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhaaaaaaa Xbox 360/PS3 Info: It's the same bullshit as NHL 14 with halfass updated rosters. sba fucked around with this message at 19:55 on May 16, 2014 |

I already know this game is going to suck, because here's what the lead dev thinks is important: "Ramjagsingh says. "The authentic arenas now have 18-21,000 people within the arena to really give it that full feel. We have 9,000 unique crowd models. We have that person in the front row not paying attention in the game and taking a selfie"

EA is introducing new dekes you can perform while striding. Pulling the left and right sticks to the left and right will give you a quick stride so you can get around a guy When you go into a glide, you now have full control of both upper and lower body with the right stick, which means you can steer your guy while deking. NHL 15 has new toe drags as well. 15 bullet points about deking and this gem: "Obviously we have to be careful about not making it too arcadey in that way, but making sure that it's realistic," Ramjagsingh says.

Board play isn't being overhauled and there's no mention of goalie AI as Gonna be a bad game. Maybe a pretty looking bad game. But probably not. Also: quote:NHL 15 introduces something never seen before in a sports game - live video of commentators before each game. To avoid the unpleasantness that virtual avatars commentators create in terms of lip synching, EA decided to record Doc and Eddie on a green screen, then place them in the broadcast booths of the arenas. So that's a super glowing review of how realistic and lifelike their player models will be if they just took the shortcut for 2 stationary loving newscasters.

Why the gently caress would I want commentators recycling audio clips when all I do with the existing pre-game intro is mash A until it skips? Talk about missing the forest for the trees.

I'd settle for the Forza 5 crowds if it meant that this game would actually allow you to play defense properly. I'm sick of getting tied up in the slot when I'm trying to throw a check, or vice versa. I'm sick of being flung behind the net when an opposing forward rotates their body position while we're tied up in the slot. I'm sick of being unable to face the proper direction because of new skating mechanics and the loss of full vision control. Most of all, I'm also sick of the inability for a defensive player to get their stick on the puck to deflect a shot or do anything besides watching it fly straight into the net despite having perfect body positioning.

During our short tenure, CSA had at least five people playing as defensive D. It felt like we lost every game because blocking was completely random, making any kind of D pointless. Worse than that, when I did get a piece of them it was always deflecting them past Rutkowski and into the net and not away from it.

Once you realize the series has no defense, it is not hockey, and all you can do is hit things, it does become more fun. This was posted from the EASHL penalty box

Lets be honest I could make a joke about playing the same bullshit just on a shiny new system (PS4 bros whattup) but as long as the game allows me to get slowly drunk on a Saturday evening whilst conceding double digit numbers of goals I am going to buy it every year regardless. I am part of the problem.

Someone in their system is retarded (shocker). Money from NBC, NBC gets additional exposure, it will look nicer than the generic crap they've got now, and it creates ad space.

I really hope they ditched that momentum/tilt bullshit, even though the official response was it didn't exist or something. Also I hope there's less "Unlock with 5,000 hours play time or pay $1.99" poo poo also. The ones for the skater are easy, because you can crank up your sliders and score on every possession. But for goalies, oh no, gently caress that. Your team AI is set to creationist, the enemy team gets only about 5 shots per game (they all are goals though), and gently caress YOU EA! .900 IS NOT AMATUER WTF YOU THINKING? edit: also there are so many little things missing from online play. No chatting before the game (or during pauses)? You only get obnoxious heavy breathers farting on their mics. No display of OVR rating while choosing sides? Not displaying other players faces during pre-game load? No voting to kick trolls/afk players? Thanks EA! edit 2: and why the gently caress are they bothering with this accurate stadium bullshit, this isn't baseball. There's pretty much NO difference to arenas, and if there are it's so dark out there anyway it's pointless. Showing glamour pics of the loving stairs? What the poo poo? edit 3: ok last post, but online I'm also sick of players sprinting up and down the ice every time there's a change of possession. Since there's no line changes I guess they said gently caress it, have infinite stamina, but maybe they could do something about that for 15. Like fake line changes, the players have to go to the bench if they're tired, and then the same player comes out again, but, pretend it's a new player? I don't know, do something EA!
