i hate this tuner btw. i have won today's 2 hut games i played. my secret: Poke check like mad, and don't pass the puck once you get it, just swim/dangle around avoiding checks until you are on a break away or 2 on 1 down low.

offline the game is now worse. can anyone explain to me how you play defence (allstar/hardcore)?
- I can't poke check the cpu players,
- i can't hit them, as there is no player skating physics for cpu as they stop on a dime and pivot,
- the puck never bounces over their stick,
- they win all their defensive board battles easily (ie. even if i have 2 guys on 1 poking at the puck),
- i can't just play sound positionally, as i tried that but the cpu simply waits and waits for a cross crease play and with the defensive AI being stupid and player switching being dumb, there's no way to defend that

how do you play defense offline?

i love how even the content patch doesn't include things it was supposed to (3 stars) ea hockey development team (and the so called QA) can go eat a ****..
