Needed transfers to international teams
I’ve prepared some transfers that can be made to make the smaller international teams better and to get rid of the created players. Since you guys have added players from older versions this year for great britain please keep this trend up and do these aswell! Would love if this can be passed on to the people who are responsible for the roster for NHL 26 or 25 but i don‘t think theres a roster update coming anymore. note: all players from NHL 24 WC mode were also in the mode in NHL 25 until they changed it to the format of this year so rosters until december or later also include the Great britain and poland players mentioned.

If ALL of this isn't fixed by 2026 game then it isn't worth buying ever again. I could develop this game much better than what they are doing. Here what is wrong with this game. Absolutely terrible when it comes to penalties(not sure if the developers have ever watch or played hockey at all). None of the penalties are called correctly. Goals by the computer are scored in ways physics couldn't ever explain, Pucks will hit the goalie in the chest and some how go in the net. The HUT moments are ridiculously tiered. All-Star setting for a 78 player. All-Star setting to get 2,000 coins. A HUT moment should NEVER be above your 3rd tier which is Pro on this game, Superstar to get a token to add to set for an 85, 75 speed moving as fast as a 99 speed on certain tiers, 78s scoring goals on 99 goalies on simple shot any person could save, gives you lower tiered players or player who never played with the moment player but will give the computer everyone that is at their highest then set the moment at All-Star and you need to score 4 goals with an excellorated clock in the 3rd period and only 2 minutes left (Special HUT Moments challenge). TOTW, TOTY, X-Factor and Power Icons have ridiculously animations to see what the card is, just open the card like normal the colored background is enough to see what it is. So EXPENSIVE for packs just to get a chance at the highest cards in the set per week. Make guarantees of 1 out 5 for $30 packs. They show you a percentage of your chance at that player and it never adds up. 50% chance at 95 open 4 packs and get none. The coins on selling back a card is ridiculously low and WAY to many BND and UnTradeable card packs. UnTradeable while doing sets its fine but make every pack card tradeable or if Untradeable at least have a quick sell worth the money to buy the pack. BND card selling nets you 0 coins should be at least 2,000, set player quick sell 0 coins should be no less than 10,000, 94 auctionable card quick sell 200 coins should be no less than 150,000 all going down as higher tier coming out but never low enough to not make it worth getting rid of. You should be able to sell 10 cards per promotion to buy at least a 3,000 NHL points pack from the store. Run the promotion for a month not a week or two. The only good qualities of this game are HUT Fantasy Hockey, TOTY, X-Factor and Power Icon top tier players go up as higher levels of those players come out, downside is it cost you a fortune in lower tier cards to upgrade the X-Factor and Power Icon or to get tokens to get fantasy players. Fantasy players that are 99 who aren't even in the playoffs, have a 99 card, or are even the best at their positions or on their own team. The developers of this should get with the Madden guys and learn how to do the quick sell coins. Taking trading out of the Auction House and make it simple. This isn't even everything wrong this is just HUT!!! Didn't even mention CHEL, or anything else outside the HUT. Also loves to kick you off with 30 seconds left in the game and you have 5 objectives done and you have to replay them again plus lose the game. Edit: Modified the title to better reflect the content of the thread. -CM121Views0likes15CommentsNhl 25/26 control feedback #controls
As a longtime NHL fan and player, I appreciate the direction EA took with the Total Control system in NHL 25. It introduces a fresh, streamlined way to perform skill moves and dekes, especially for newer players. However, there's one major issue that prevents many of us from fully adopting it: The removal of button-based shooting (Square = Slap Shot, Circle = Wrist Shot) makes Total Control feel limiting and less intuitive for players who struggle with aiming and shooting via the right analog stick. Suggestion: Allow players to use Square for slap shots and Circle for wrist shots within Total Control mode, just like in Hybrid controls. This way: - Players who are comfortable using button shooting can still benefit from the Total Control deke system. - The system becomes more flexible and inclusive, without sacrificing its modern appeal. - Advanced players can still use the analog for full manual control, while casual or hybrid-style players get the comfort of classic mechanics. This small change would dramatically improve accessibility and enjoyment for a large portion of the NHL community. Please consider adding this option in NHL 26 — or at least allowing full customization of control schemes, so players can tailor their gameplay to their preferences. p.s please add Polish language if u can 😍 Thanks for listening to the community!215Views0likes9CommentsNHL 26 WISHLIST
I'm a big fan of the games and am a Be A Pro merchant. I've played the last 10 NHL games, and have been wondering why it's so easy to become the captain in Be A Pro. The few things I want for NHL 26 Be A Pro are very simple: NHL 19 mechanics where it took 3-4 seasons to get the A, and 2-3 seasons after that to get the C. Since then, you could pretty much immediately become captain after a single season in every Be A Pro. I would love to see them implement these mechanics into the next game. It not only gives you something to work towards, but also adds a level a realism to the game. Please give less dialogue in Be a Pro and make it easier to sim. With so many random side missions and interactions, it makes it difficult to want to really grind the career and play for a while. NHL 19 is a perfect example of what my ideal Be A Pro would look like. Fix the Low, High, and Fixed camera angles to make them not spin in 360 degrees. Why not just make it like the FIFA career camera?1.5KViews0likes25CommentsNHL 26 early wishlist (let’s make NHL great again)
First off I will say nhl 25 is actual a huge step up im liking it so far , but it’s missing some details to feel complete.. full presentation needs to return and add more to what we had in the past games In edit player menu have the ability to change the color of sticks and gloves (nhl 2k had this) and now players have been customizing their own as well. Customizable tape job (adjust length on shaft and blade and not have it preset) And add the ability to edit goalie masks. hitting and collisions need to be tweaked to more realism. Franchise: be able to control more than one team able to scout and sign players from other leagues(I.E europe) Real coaches or at least customizable coaches A customizable GM character, have conversations be shown like it is in fifa where your Gm Meets the player. office similarly to dynasty mode in nhl 2004 On the hub where we get details of what went on in other games we can see highlights (either by clip or a screen shot) with description such as ‘stamkos nets a hat trick in last nights win’ and a small clip or screen shot showing stamkos scoring his 3rd goal. Be a pro: change up the whole be a pro game mode make it more like life the life. ability to use NhL players to continue their career or an nhl legend Street clothes for off days and make it interactive. If I buy a condo or a house i want to actualy see my self living in it. Same with the car we get, be able to drive around (a small map) and not just be a attribute boost. Pond hockey pick up games you can walk to or drive to when you leave your ‘house’ Call it a ‘hall of fame room’ similar to skybox 2k had in nhl2k5 where you had the Stanley cup and other interactive stuff and unlockables. Be able to decide to start from being drafted at 18 or create a 30 year old forward who just signed with an nhl team etc.. more interactive with teammates and coaches and GM list of teams you want to be traded to etc.. extras add winter classic and all star game (skills + game) both as a play now mode and also in franchise and be a pro. player retiring playing their last game get a ovation from crowd. Announce the player will retire 1 game before their last skate with the cup (playoff mode, season mode , franchise and be a pro) Tweak the fighting engine and allow more than one fight happening at once. this is a lot of an ask, but if we can get half of these implemented we are definitely heading Into greatness with NhL games.4.2KViews16likes36CommentsPresentation in NHL 26
If you can make the presentation feel like we're on TV, you could put a price tag of €200/$200 and I'll buy it. It's the only thing I care about. The cutscenes and replays are so fast right now that the game feels forced. I'd like to sit down, have a drink and watch the replays and stats or something, just like on TV in real life. EA_Aljo60Views1like1CommentNHL 26 - PC (yet another thread asking for it)
Firstly, I'd like to start with mentioning that I've played this franchise since I was a kid. My first one was '07 back on PS2. I loved hopping on and playing every chance I could. I was an every-other-year buyer of these games up until NHL 21, and it wasn't because I stopped enjoying them. It was because I, along with more and more gamers every year, made the move to PC. One of the only things I miss about my Playstation is the NHL games. If a new NHL game were to come out on PC - even better, on Steam? Instant wishlist. Instant buy on release day. I wanna play Be a Pro again. Make more expansion teams in Franchise mode again. Find some people to play in an EASHL club with again. It's not as if there's no market. PC grows year over year. Look at Capcom's recent earnings report, for example. Capcom has been a console-first developer/publisher for as long as it's been around. Their most recent huge title, "Monster Hunter: Wilds", actually ended up having more PC players than console players - a first for that series. And that's just one concrete example of the numbers supporting PC's meteoric growth. Streaming the game through Gamepass isn't a solution (though it's better than nothing). A lot of gamers, including myself, don't have an internet connection reliable enough to stream games. More still don't have one strong enough to stream games and play online modes. We need a real PC version of these games going forward.142Views1like2CommentsNHL 25 ranking
I wonder, NHL 25 is not about skills anymore. It's all about ranking. If your ranking is lower with you play. You will lose 9/10 games...is it fair? Even luck and own players so slow. But if you are the one who higher in ranking then much easier and your players "fly"...27Views0likes1CommentFRANCHISE MODE GAME PLAY IS RUINED
So bad….. SOOOOO BAD!!!!! It's barely possible to hit the opponents, but Cole Caufield can bodyslam Mattia Ekholm like he is a child. passes always hit a skate ALWAYS You can’t pass or shot if they hit you but they can do perfect pass everytime you hit the….. the puck just bounche to them what ever you do. Late hits and blindside hit without any penalty only injured player every game 🤮 GOALIE ARE THE BIGGEST TRASH IN ALL GAME MODE YOU HAVE….. oh sorry not in the opposing team. ice-Q ehat is that??? well it dosen’t work at all Year after year we are asking for things that are easy to give us for exempel let us change the age/lenght/weight of players… or let us have more options for creating players like their play style: leader/rat/fighter/etc etc… I mean WOC have a lot of new goalie masks, why can’t we have them in franchise mode? why can’t you just remove hamburger logos and give us realistic cool logos…. 🤷♂️ just so tierd of how much you don’t care about what players want. RIP be a pro286Views3likes6CommentsNHL 26 Wishlist
Customization Features: - ability to create jerseys with words on it, and select the font/style (like the rangers jerseys) as of now, we only have the ability to do logos - custom logos, similar to MLB the show, where people can submit there own ideas - custom goalie helmets (use the same tools for the custom logos) - more presentation items for stadiums, especially the on-ice graphics Be a Pro: - online be a pro, where you start on your junior team with your buddies, and all of you are on the same line, to where you leave each other in the draft, and reunite throughout the seasons/playoffs - ALL STAR GAMES AND WINTER CLASSICS does anything else need to be said - ability to start in youth hockey (or high school), this doesn't need to be realistic teams, just do something as simple as a AI generated 16 team youth league that has a 12 game season or something, to where you get scouted to other junior leagues - with that, other junior leagues, add the USHL, NAHL, BCHL, NCAA and more for more junior realism - more interactiveness (I'll touch on more later) Franchise Mode: - custom trophy/trophy name - I don't play franchise mode as much, so people down below can give there thoughts World Of CHEL: - Make it open world, similar to NBA 2k MyCourt - have the ability to create leagues within WOC (similar to what EA does for F1 24 online seasons) Presentation: - Make it feel like we're on TV... simple as that. sign a deal with ESPN or something to make it feel like the real thing - redo the whole presentation basically, from the commentating to the scorebug, it needs a redo. ESPN+ scorebug would be perfect for the NHL franchise - fix the goal celebration animations, the awkward camera angle we have now is not it. make it where like if someone goes and slams against the boards, theres a camera on the other side. just make it have emotion Gameplay: - FIX THE GOALIES, goalies now are bugged through the roof, and have awkward animations we don't see in real life. And goalies in NHL 25 are dependent on the specific height and stance. Goalies like Dustin Wolf who are great in real like, when playing with them in CHEL it feels impossible to make a save - Hitting needs a revamp as always LEAVE YOUR THOUGHTS BELOW, WOULD LOVE TO HEAR MORE346Views2likes14Comments
