After snagging the demo from the UK store, I have to say, it did get better, from what I've seen.
The fact that players will bobble a pass after getting repeatedly checked and enforced is a nice touch, as is the lower passing accuracy. It's such a nice touch to the game, and makes it feel a lot more realistic. The goalies are better, and it's nice to see them take away the cross crease pass (well overdue).
I'm not too fond of the fighting yet, but it's better than 09's for sure.
Notes from my first play through:
- Got an assist in the Prospects game, as well as a couple hits and shot blocks.
- Drafted 9th Overall by the Sens. Don't think I'm the answer to Heatley quite yet.
BFTC:
- Got Sykora on a breakaway and was tripped onto my knees and Ozzy saved it.
- Detroit scored to tie it up, Zetterberg ruined by regulation win with 32 seconds to go.
- Sprung Fedotenko on a breakaway and he was tripped, regained posession and passed it around, got a couple of shots on net, and then found out I had a penalty shot from the Fedotenko shot. On the penalty show I deked and hit the post in OT.
- Scored on a close in one timer by Letang. Fun times.
