Default NHL 11 General Discussion

NHL 11 has officially launch! We can now move talk from previews of the game to hands on impressions and questions.

What do you guys think of the game thus far?

I promised myself that I wouldn't call in sick today but alas, life is full of broken promises.

I'll be at EB in Marlborough at 10am sharp to grab my prepaid copy! I can't wait to get my HUT started!

I picked mine up at Midnight in Edmonton, my first impressions of the CHL players....

Its awesome that they are included for GM mode, but as far as playing with CHL players....

The announcer ONLY says the names of players with the same last names as NHLers...

So when I was playing with the Hitmen, I only heard the announcer say Fiddler and Jones,

It seems to however, have most of the names of the Moncton Wildcats and the names of the big first rounders...Hall, Gormley, Seguin etc

Also, the use of poor grammar in regarding the team names for the CHL....

"The Hitmens lead late in the third after that goal"

Has anybody tried a mic yet? I'm hoping this year there is some voodoo in the game and the mic's work online.

For me, adding stuff like this is great for the GM aspect of the game, then actually playing with a CHL team.

I'd trade places with you. I have to wait for Bestbuy to finally ship it out and then it's a three or four day wait. I most likely wont be playing it until next week.

me too.... Best buy by my work had 3 copies ( i got the 1st one) ... The other best buys have 5 copies a piece.... What kind of is this ? I guess only 20 people play NHL in OKC? Man , and I thought more people in OK would play because the OKC Barons will be in the game!

CFL?

I agree it will make Be A GM better, just hoping the names would be said

If you have forwards on defence, use your experience of playing with me as a D in the EASHL.

See? Now it's familiar!

i knew those 2 years of having you on the team would finally be beneficial!!!!!

it does suck though, as it is killing my chemistry rating. my 3rd pairing was 2 forwards and they had a chemistry of 12! i am just kinda messin around now, but damn that is low!
