Skating is great and pokecheck is like it should be. Deflections should be nerfed, and intercepting passes should be changed a bit, as sometimes when you are facing the puck a pass might just go through your player, whereas when you are not facing the puck your player might still be able to intercept the pass, which should not be the case. This game has potential to be an amazing game with a couple of fixes imo.

Dont care anything else than 6vs6 games n in this mode EA make good job, first if all developers never get anything else than shit in their Neck so i want say BIG THAnK U for those changes what they make on this version: - now it feels u can move like jagger not any cargo ship like before, it makes it fun to play - do not change poke check or l1 now u can use UR skill stick n handle the puck with stick - also different player builds with possible to peak them little bit how u like is BIG plus, so player feels he/she can make players attribute going with playstyle I realize its called nhl19beta for a reason but feels more like its nhl19alpha but anyway developers are going to right direction on gameplay n this feels much more compative than previous version, but servers are totally shitty no they are deep in hole Where sun never shines...well u get the point, if servers n connection problems can be solved this version will be best evööö... Your’s one n only true JOHTAJA

Saints looking for D mans and backup F

1. Human Goalies in EASHL - Dont change anything pls! 🙂 6v6 is going right way now, u need teamplay to succes, no more puskutraktor.

That would be awesome.

I'm probably going to play every mode this game has, but prefer club 6vs6 and hut/versus. I hope this has some effect because I used too much of my freetime to answer :D. 1. NHL Ones - Favors big hitting players too much. Even though It's not a problem if you always pick a big guy :P. Maybe nerf tackling in this gamemode or give more balance to everyone.I was also thinking about the possibility of raising the rink's walls so you can bind to the wall and avoid check from behind? 2. NHL THREES Drop-In (Arcade Threes) - I think it's ok because its arcade. Won't play it tho cos I don't like it. 3. EASHL Drop-Ins (Please specify if it is in 3s/6s/both) - 6vs6: I find it really hard to recognize who's in my team because of the custom clothing. Especially when player leaves and AI players has not sign on his head. All of the home clothing should be dark as possible and away white as possible. Ban grey plz. - 3vs3: Clothing is ok because of less players. Even though It should always be easy to recognize your own teammates. - Both: Fix the connecting problems (also in club games) 4. EASHL Club 3s - It's fun as it was in NHL 18 5 EASHL Club 6s - Nerfing pokecheck and boosting skating has made better players even better. I like it (tho im not that good myself so won't benefit me hehehehe :'[ ). The scale between bad and good teams is going to be even larger, but it forces everyone to focus on teamplay in both directions which is good. Just like in real hockey. - Why is there timelimits in the menu after the match? Where is the summary of the players like takeaways/giveaways, shot% etc.? - There should be challenge club room (of course?) - No input lag is a big +, I hope it stays that way in the full version aswell. - I would love to see who carries C and A in the teams. - There should be possibilty to change your team shirt away/home/third to avoid same colours as your opponent. 6. AI skaters in World of Chel (specify mode + how many AI) - AI defenders always have problems when the puck is behind the own goal and they decide to take it up. They skate near the post and puck goes under the keeper, sometimes it bounces inside the goal. This was the problem in NHL 18 aswell. - Sometimes AI won't pass in beta. I understand this when the line isn't open and pass would be a suicide, but this happens in clear lines aswell. This worked fine in the NHL 18. 7. AI goalies in World of Chel (specify mode) - Boost Ones keeper a bit. Not too much. Their should be able to catch the pucks when the shot are taken from far (sometimes from backwall). 8. AI goalies in EASHL (specify if in 3s/6s) - I like that AI keeper takes sweet saves from onetimers sometimes now. Imo AI keeper has always been good enough. Some of the glitch goals that are still working are annoying but I believe its really hard to erase them without making goalies too good? 9. Customization: Player Classes + Traits/Specializations - Traits are cool, not too overpowered and same for everyone. Don't make them like perks in Call of Duty, because it ruined the whole franchise. 10. Customization: Gear (Casual + Pro gear + Gear Bags) - Wish the head customization would be like in Fifa. Would be cool to have option to choose the stiffnes of your stick and the curve of your blade that would affect your stats a bit. I think this was in some older version? - Otherwise I think its OK 11. Other World of Chel related feedback - Please make a practise mode where you can go play alone, with AI or your EASHL teammates. 12.13.and14. Online Vs. - No huge changes needed. Just try to fix the known glitches. 15. Skating - Very good. As I said earlier, good players will dominate with their skills. Defenders need to focus on cutting skating and passing lanes. Somehow the energy isn't gathering when sliding backwards? - Imo enforcers should have worse skating ratings, because most of the real life enforcers can't even get to the NHL because they're so useless. 16. Hitting (Collision Physics) - It has some assistance now, but you can still avoid it. I think it's wise to tackle now because you can collapse opponents energy levels which can give your team benefits. In the NHL 18 it just felt good to hit someone. - Sometimes when you hit a player, he flies to his teammate and hit him. It's an interference penalty to original tackler. Shouldn't be? Right? 17. Pokechecking - I love the end of the pokechecking era. Please don't buff it, let it be like it is. But tune down its change to trip the player, most of the pokes should just miss everything. Poke from behind or straight to the legs from odd angle should always be a penalty. 18. Offensive Play (i.e. how did it feel to play defense? How easy was it? Was there a skill gap? Were there limitations?) - It's easier to attack. Penalties that the pokecheck is giving is making the defending team to play more passive. 19. Defensive Play (i.e. how did it feel to play defense? How easy was it? Was there a skill gap? Were there limitations?) - It's harder to defend. But with the right positioning it's easy to cut passing lanes and block shots. 20. Other (anything not covered here) - I wish the deekes you added to NHL 18 could be made in the EASHL aswell. Imo every spec should have the ability to make deekes. In beta I realised you can't make datsyuk deek in penalty shot because its ''illegal'' according to referees. I played as a playmaker. Most of the deeks fail because of the poor deeking ability? Not cool, because I believe even John Scott can make between the legs deek if he wants. - Why is the old timer animation so fast? I also hate the glitch behind the goal where you fakeshot and make oldtimer right after. It makes the oldtimer animation to go double speed and looks fake as hell. Edgy human goalie doens't have the speed to react even if he understand its going to happen. 21. Human Goalies in EASHL - I haven't played goalie, but It's clear to see that they're still too edgy to handle and move slowly from post to post. Especially in the penalty shot or breakaway it's like taking a penalty in FIFA. If the game is heading to be legit eSports this is definitely something to be focused on. Peace.

20. Other: I don't know if this intends to stay the same, but this year the speed of getting from one match to the next is worse than last year because after each game you get kicked out of the dressing room completely (and that's even with no errors, desyncs, bugs, glitches, blue screens). Would like to see them copy from FIFA pro clubs and make it so you can search for your next match right after finishing a game. Also, a quick swap handedness button in the match room would be good for those of us that don't choose one specific position. Since this is being passed on to EA, here's a couple more small things: The animation when you pass to a guy who is close to the offside line and he skates in before the puck and gets called offside (in versus). Quick, instant and responsive menus like we haven't seen since last gen (when pressing "Advance/Back" or using the d-pad to move left/right/up/down) Forehand stick lift face-off sometimes doesn't work, puck stays on the dot even though you've won the faceoff. Drop-ins often got confusing when both teams' jackets/jerseys had similar colours. New drop-in select position system is an improvement, but there are many players that play weird positions like only RD and C. What I would suggest is just having the six position options there and you highlight which ones you prefer to play. In Ones I experienced a bug a few times where the overlay that shows the players' names and one stat (X goals, Y hits, Z wins, first game, etc) would stay there for the entire match. Skating backwards with the puck into the offensive zone should be an offside.sorry everybody looks like I dont know hockey rules Search for clubs with friends option was broken again. Player who got a penalty came out of the bench not the box after the PK was over. (Personal opinion) The player who controls the goalie should come on as the 6th player instead of a bot. Gameplay feels really good. At this point I don't really see what major thing they could add in next year that would greatly improve the game. *cough* GM connected *cough*

Keep the gameplay as it is in beta. No tweaks that makes it closer to previous version. Not again. It's closer to perfection now that it has ever been.

Stick lift is way too effective. Pokechecks are useless. They need to balance it better. I like that you cant spam the poke. I dislike that even a good poke is a risk not worth taking. All pokes done from behind should result in a tripping while doing it in front (with a certain gap) should result in success or a failed poke but not an automatic tripping. The image I attached got me a tripping penalty. Its not the best exemple cause throwing a poke in that situation should probably get you a penalty but the problem is that my stick is nowhere near the fwds skates. other than that, all is great and skating etc feels awesome and I’m really looking forward to the release.

Poke pitää korjata buildit jolla ei voi taklata (esim playmaker) on vähän alakynnessä tällä hetkellä kun poke ei toimi, myös se bugi kun voi kampittaa vastustajan kun sen tekemä harhautus on jo loppunut pitäisi korjata 🙈 Ja sitten omasta mielestä voisi vähän nostaa nhl 18 suuntaan että voi yksin dominoida edes jotenkin, Nykynen beta on lähinnä syöttely simulaattori, kyllähän oikeassakin lätkässä jotkut voi "dominoida" 1v1 tilanteissa ja laittaa montaakin pelaajaa nippuun.

To start with, I gotta say that this beta have been very good so far and I have enjoyed every second of it. There are som changes though that I would like to see. 1. I want there to be an permanent dressing room like in last game. When you quit a game or back out you shouldn't get back to the starting menu of chel. In my opinion you should still be in the dressing room. 2. After you have played a game it says "next game in 00:56" for example. I think you should remove the limited time you have after a game. After games I like to watch stats and also highlights. And highlights aren't even available to watch after the games anymore?? You need to bring that back. I think it would be cool if you could watch highlights and stats of the game even after you quit or close the application. 3. Add a practice arena where you and your club members can go into anytime and practice together or alone as a goalie or skater. If alone as a goalie there should be a bot that can help you out. 4. Fix the pokecheks a little bit but not much. A good poke shouldn't be avoided just because it might give you a penalty. Bad pokes though that goes through the skates should always be a penalty. Pokechecks through the net should be fixed. 5. The stick lift can be nerfed a little bit but not too much. 6. Sometimes when you skate towards another player and decides to go for the hit nothing happens and the skater can just keep on skating without even losing the control over the puck. In real life the player would lose control of the puck. The rest I want changed have already been mentioned up here. This game is going to be amazing!

- Matchmaking and game crashing issues need to be fixed at EASHL. - Need to fix the pokechecks. Maybe not as overwhelming it was in NHL 18, but like it won’t aim for the opponents legs all the time. - Make sure the EASHL has ”challenge club” feature. - Remove the clock counter at the end of the match to make it easier to take stats from ECL games. (Maybe only in EASHL challenge club mode.) - Add a feature to put ”C” and ”A” captain patches to EASHL jerseys. Overall I think it’s the best NHL yet made! Gameplay and skating feels dope.

I don't know if the timer after the game ends is planed to be only in beta but it shoudn't be in the actual game. There will be hurry to take stats etc to ECL if you have limited time to do it. And it's nice that you can take your time at action tracker and/or instant replay. Otherwise to EA: Well done! Great game and don't change a thing.. well matchmaking and crashing obviously but the gameplay is perfect.

Would like to see the human goalie be the extra player while pulling out the goalie for an extra player. I’m talking about eashl ofc

Just go into the instant replay and it will remove this countdown. As for the action tracker it has to be an oversight on behalf of the devs as it's available during the game under the game stats tab, for some reason though it's not there in the post game menus.

1. N/A 2. N/A 3. Sparrit 3vs3 ja 6vs6: pipolätkävarustussetti täyttä kuraa. Pelin nimi on NHL, ei pipolätkä. Sekottaa vaan jotkut joutavanpäiväset varustesekoilut ja pipot. Yhteys toimii hyvin, pelattavuus hyvä. Enemmän tuolla klubipuolella 4. N/A 5. Clubi 6vs6: .betan lapsuksia lukuunottamatta PARAS itse kokemistani. Pokea pitää säätää, mutta edelleen takaa tulevat poket vois olla kuten nytkin, jos liian kaukaa yrittää. Sivusta tuleva poke pitäisi sallia, nyt valtaosa menee jaloille, vaikka tähtäiskin kiekkoon. Mailapuolustus tämän takia hankalaa, en toki ole mikään Elitepakki. Mutta sain kiekkoa pois nhl18 ilman pokespammia. Tykkään myös siitä, ettei nurkissa takaa kyykkimällä saa enää kiekkoa pois, vaikka pakkina pelaankin. Mailannosto toimii kohtuu hyvin. Taklauksissa ärsyttää se, että jos kolaat toisen, hän jää toisinaan makaamaan kiekon päälle. Ei liene kauheen realistista. Pelaajan liike tosi hyvää ja ketterää, toivottavasti tahmeus ei tuu tuotantoversioon. 6. N/A 7. 8. Maalintekosektori one-timereissa pienentynyt. Veska nappaa kiinni lähes kaiken jotka eivät tuu pienestä sektorista maalin edestä. Tuota vois aavistuksen ainakin suurentaa. 9. Ihan jees, en oo itse niin hirveesti noiden perään, mutta ihan toimiva kai. 10. Turhaa näpertelyä. En myöskään halua pukea pelaajaa hänen vapaa-ajalleen, tai päättää mitä hän syö joten ns rennot ei napostele myöskään kentälle. Poistaisin itse peliasut ja mailat, jotka ei näy kunnolla jäätä vasten. Ihan kusetusta. 11. Ei muuta lisättävää. 12. Hyvää ja nopeaa. Maalintekosektori one-timereissa pieni. En oo mikään expertti lajissa, ihan ok kumminkin. 13. Pelaajat ns seuraa hyvin, muttei tee mitään muuta kun seuraa puolustuksessa/karvauksessa.. Vois olla aktiivisempia ainakin paikka paikoin. Parannusta se ettei oo enää pakko pitää maalin edessä vetäjää itse puolustuksessa, kun bottikin hoitaa joskus. Aika ajoin tyhmät ketjun vaihtohetket. Samoin taklatessa vastustaja kaatuu ja nousee ylös pitäen kiekon koko ajan itsellään. Salibandysuojauksella ei meinaa saada millään muulla kun taklauksella kiekkoa pois. 14. Aika ajoin ylivoimainen, aika ajoin paska. Viivaveto ilman maskia luistelusta harvoin pitäisi upota. Kts kohta 12. 15. Hyvä ja nopea luistelu. Muutenkin tahmeutta ei juuri tuntunut. 16. Kts kohta 13. 17. Poke toimii musta vähän paremmin täällä. Ei anna spammaa. Sivustakin osuu tähtäämällä. Mailannosto hyvä. 18. N/A 19. N/A 20. Toivon todella, että eashl:n klubin puolella tahmeus jää NHL18 versioon. Ollut pitkästä aikaa mukava pelata, kun liike terävää ja tatit tottelee. Toivon EA:lta pelikohtaisten servereiden lisäämistä tai niiden laadun/kapasiteetin parantamista. Beta pikku betavikoineen on ollut pelattavuudeltaan aivan eri luokkaa kuin 18 tuotantoversio. Vaatetuksen lisäämistä rennompaan suuntaan joissain moodeissa en hiffaa ollenkaan, ellei sitten haluta rahastaa pentuja jotenkin pipojen hankinnassa varsinaisessa tuotantoversiossa. Muussa tapauksessa ihan turhaa shitaa. Pitäis mennä pelin toimivuus edellä ja pitää peli ns mahd kevyenä, jotta siitä sais mahd toimivan. Pelaisin peliä varsinkin eashl modea 6vs6, vaikka siel olis vain punaisia ja keltaisia PELI-asuja, kunhan pelattavuus on A-luokkaa. 21. N/A

This!!!! 💪✌🤘👊

If you guys wrote stuff in the thread by Janikka, feel free to copy paste it into the comments here. I will chime in a bit later!

🙋‍♂️☝️☝️☝️

hey all, overall the nhl19 beta is solid! just a few things that pop to mind... if your opponent is AFK for 5+ mins then the game should end and you get the W. in ones, try to implement something to prevent players teaming up to make it a 2 v 1 scenario. custom cameras would be nice like in old gen [adjusting angle / distance]. p.s. can't wait until nhl19 comes out! -peace,

Ok..

Loving the beta and the 6v6 gameplay. The things that are bad are not really gameplay related. For example, when going in to a 6v6 game you shouldnt have to ready up two times? I know it’s always been like that but it’s just unnessecary and makes everything take more time. After the captain has pressed search for game, there shouldnt be any more buttonpressening. Just show the opponent and start the game :). Or make the timer max 30s and not 3 minutes. Look at fifa - you can play sooo many more games during 2hrs than you can play in NHL. Same with like shootout mode (rarely play that but still), you should be able to play a rematch against your opponent so you dont have to go back to main menu and search again. Summary: make everything more fluent menu wise and we will have a great game! Dont change the pokes etc.

Känner att det jag tänkte skriva redan finns utskrivet. De jag tänkte på kanske är kamera vinkeln. När man kör klassik med autozoom sen trycker du en gång på mitten knappen så den fokusar dig och sen håller du in mitt knappen 1-2 sekunder och då ser man hur det zoomar ut lite granna och den kamera vinkeln vill jag ha som standard utan att hålla på . Att det finns en option om man vill ha så eller inte. Låter lite långsökt men kamera vinkel är viktigt för mig Och små detaljer!

Tech issue: This screen stuck with me after I paused the game to switch controllers. It was completely unplayable and I ended up losing the game. Since the X-button has a function in this screen, I couldnt use it for the gameplay. Rest of the buttons worked.

Not so much about the Beta but you can address to EA Sports to fix real jerseys for the SHL and Hockeyallsvenskan teams with commercial signs on the jerseys. And they can also fix the real arenas in SHL. If they can have the correct arenas in the NLA (swiss league) they should be able to have it in the swedish leagues aswell. It couldnt be that hard to create for example Hovet in Stockholm. And they should also take away the stupid thing that you only can change club to a CHL (Canadian Hockey League)-team for minor players. As it is today, you cant perform a transfer for a minor player that goes between two swedish clubs just to take one example. Regarding the Beta. It shouldn't take 45 min (real time) to play a game because of there are so many penalties in the game. Shorten the cut scenes aswell and when you play online, fix so the opponent only can watch one replay of a goal and then go to face-off.

NHL Ones + This mode is a fun distraction where I can work on my 1v1 skills. NHL THREES Drop-In (Arcade Threes) EASHL Drop-Ins (Please specify if it is in 3s/6s/both) + Being able to lock positions before searching. - Hard to keep track of teammates and opponents because of the individual jerseys. I think it would be better to have 3v3 and 6v6 in the same lobby since it adds another level of the slow menus. EASHL Club 3s EASHL Club 6s + Big thanks for moving player summary and level progression to a quicker menu after the match is over. - Club challenge is missing, I'm assuming it is back with the full release. The timer after a game. AI skaters in World of Chel (specify mode + how many AI) AI goalies in World of Chel (specify mode) - Goalie AI is weird. (NHL Ones) AI goalies in EASHL (specify if in 3s/6s) Customization: Player Classes + Traits/Specializations + This is a step in the right direction, keep it but do not make it ridiculous. - Why do I need two loadouts prepared for switching between RW/LW/C/RD/LD? I want an option to set if my player shoots left or right depending on the position I'm playing. Customization: Gear (Casual + Pro gear + Gear Bags) - Please do not make us suffer through the "daily login bonus hockey bag" menu that plagued HUT in 18. Manually opening several hockey bags with the slow animations and several menu choices is a waste of time. Other World of Chel related feedback - Obvious bugs and crashes that should already be addressed by others. Online Vs. AI Skaters in Online Vs. AI Goalies in Online Vs. Skating + Finally, I can be in control of where my player is on the ice. The downside is that so can others I love the stamina bar, it reveals the game mechanics for everyone. Hitting (Collision Physics) + It feels much better than 18. Pokechecking + I love the change, I have to think twice before using it now. - I hate that I cannot control where the stick goes the first instant when I'm pressing R1. When I want to block my opponent from making a deke when I'm behind him it results in a penalty because of the stick going towards the puck before moving to where I'm aiming. Offensive Play (i.e. how did it feel to play defense? How easy was it? Was there a skill gap? Were there limitations?) + Creating space is easier for skilled players. Finally deflections are not stopping the puck completely as in 18. Defensive Play (i.e. how did it feel to play defense? How easy was it? Was there a skill gap? Were there limitations?) + Closing the gap to the puck carrier is easier for skilled players. Other (anything not covered here) - Too many and too slow menus, it takes forever to navigate. Give me an option to choose an even smaller game clock and change its position. Did faceoffs get changed? I lose when I think I'm countering the opponents faceoff, seems like it is more random or the mechanics are changed. Human Goalies in EASHL Positive: Locking to the posts and moving away from the posts appears to be quicker, this makes it easier to save wraps.

Eashl:lään voisi lisätä sellaisen että näkee viime pelien rosterit ja tilastot.

Seuraavat kommenttini liittyvät ainoastaan EASHL 3vs3 ja 6vs6 pelimuotoihin, sillä muita ei juuri ole tullut testattua. Edelleen on paljon taklaustilanteita joissa hyöty tuntuu kääntyvän turhan usein kiekolliselle pelaajalle. Toki voi olla omaa osaamattomuutta, mutta luulisi nyt edun olevan lähtökohtaisesti sillä joka taklauksen antaa. Aloitukset. Ainakaan betassa, et voi tehdä ns. feikkikaapaisua. Eli aloitat esimerkiksi rystyllä, mutta käännätkin aloituksen kämmenellä omalle joukkueelle. Puolustaminen. Mielestäni tästä on tehty todella paljon vaikeampaa (toki vaatinee vielä lisää pelitunteja alle, jotta oppii ymmärtämään tilanteet joissa voit yrittää tökkimistä), sillä ero NHL 18 ja NHL 19 betan välillä on merkittävä. Omalla kohdalla en normaalisti ole jäähyboksin ilmastoinnista ole juurikaan päässyt nauttimaan, mutta betan osalta tilanne ollut se, että tökkimisestä johtuva kampitus ja siitä seuraksena tullut jäähy on ollut kohtalo monet kerrat.
