Yup same with me. I don't care about new features or modes. Quite frankly the NHL series has been a monopoly for years now and I predict the same issues that arise every year will once again arise again. I could literally copy/paste my posts from every year when it comes to improvements.
-No pausing in online play. You can't pause FPS online games. Why or why dear Jesus can you pause it in an online hockey game. Even more ridiculous is every single player gets a pause. Make it so only the captain cause pause it ONCE per game. 1 time out per game, just like real life.
-If a player quits a game, have them depart seamlessly. No need to have the game paused for the full 30 seconds every time someone leaves. We don't need to see a useless replay after each and every whistle unless it's something cool that happens. Adding to that point, we don't need to sit around after each period in online mode and watch 2 minutes of replays when a period ends, then a 30 second pause while we wait for everyone to press the A button. Make it a quick 10 second break that shows the stats, then back to game on whether everyone is ready or not.
- No more powerpoint-like menu slides that lag to #### every time you try and navigate them. Make it simple and sweet like every other damn video game out there.
Honestly for me it's not the new features that will make/break the game for me. Couldn't care less about new HUT cards or whatever mascot is in the stands cheering. All I care about is having past issues that should have been fixed back in '07 FINALLY get brought to the forefront on these next gen consoles and fixed. I'm tired of all the lagging and pausing in online games. For me that is the #1 pet peeve I have. And it's the same with plenty of other gamers, yet nothing is ever done about it. So I'll believe it when I see it; improvements were made to the game and make it actually worth buying.
