Just when I was starting to get into this game I run into a glitch that has basically sucked any fun out of it. I was amped to play a WHL season, would have been great to go through a year with the Hitmen and get to the Mem Cup. Unfortunately there are 2 huge glitches in the CHL mode.
Any game against Saskatoon or Swift Current results in the infinite load screen, which I can handle (as long as I didn't see them in the playoffs) but is still ridiculous.
But the real ridiculous glitch, and one that really is completely unacceptable, is that CHL teams can sign anyone in the free agent pool. So Turco is now starting for Spokane. The fact that they added this mode and didn't close this massive issue tells me that they either didn't spend more than an hour on the mode, or they simply don't give a fata. According to the EA boards this issue has been known of from day one, and yet no patch or resolution in sight. To me this reeks of a developer that knows they're going to get ales regardless of what they put out there. The physics are great, the gameplay is challenging, but if you can't figure out a way to keep 40 year old players out of juniors you deserve a slap.
End rant
