Just found out about this game... would love for Be a GM to be a lot more like this, and i'd happily buy a separate game just like this.
In the beta I had the exact thing happen twice, once for each team, in the same session (for lack of a better term). Burrows backed into Thomas, received a pass and then scored. No penalty called. Later in the period, my forward was pushed into Luongo (who went flying) by a defenseman, I put the puck in the net and my guy was given a goalie interference penalty. That gave me a pretty good chuckle.Nothing frusterates me more then goalie interference penalties that come from barely bumping the goalie usually resulting from being checked into him.
Also I seem to remember getting alot of powerplays when I first bought the game and now I hardly get any. That along with it freezing every 2-3 games....grrr...
more commentary like the guys from RDS would be great, maybe some regional guys like in boston and chicago
Something is wrong with the draft. You've got 19-year old players like Alexandre Lavoie going in the first round while, drafting last in every round I got:
1st: Nail Yakupov
2nd: Ryan Murray
3rd: Mikhail Grigorenko
4th: Griffin Reinhart
OK, so there are alot of unrealisitc and unreasonable player ratings in NHL 12 and some of the games preceeding it, and I created my own more realistic player rating system. This system does not rate speed, shot, etc, just overall. You may notice that these ratings are similar to the ones in older versions of EA Sports NHL. Heres how it works:
Legend:
85-99 = 1st liner/dp1
75-84 = 2nd line/dp2
65=74 = 3rd liner/dp3
50-64 = 4th line/minors
Skaters:
2010-2011 points ÷ 2010-2011 games played (example=41÷82=0.5)
(0.5) x 50 =(25)
(25) + 50 =(75)
the final number for a player who scores 41 points in 82 games is 75 overall.
conditions:
add 10 overall to all defenseman
add 2 overall to any player with 50-99 penalty minutes
add 5 overall t any player with 100+ penalty minutes
subtract 5 overall from all players who played 10-19 games
subtract 20 overall from any player who played 6-9 games
subtract 30 overall from any player who played 1-5 games
Try it for yourself, and maybe compare it to an older EA NHL game and you will see where i am coming from...
note: i have not made a way to realistically calculate goalie overall yet, i am working on it.
Suspensions, realistic hip checks, Demand a trade in be-a-pro, prospects not named Nugent Hopkins to have some trade value, better goal celebrations, 2 person checks, more than 2 female faces, less tape to tape passes, more deking options, be a ref mode (Yeah that'd be boss), coaches in be a GM, chemistry stats in Be-a-GM.
YES and YES. I've wanted this for a while but never bring it up because most of my ideas have been looked at like I'm crazy. I wish they would allow relocation like Madden.Be A GM
-Be able to Re-sign players mid seasons
-Have players refuse to re-sign with your team. If you offer what a player wants he accepts 100% of the time. Have how good you team is, and other stuff in the players decision.
-Full Ownership. Ability to relocate, work on stadium upgrades, sponsorships, advertisemtns, like MLB The Show
-Ability to Fire/Hire Coaches
-More TV Like Presentation
-Have the correct goal song/horn for each team
-Make trades more realistic
-Better Trade Negotiations, not just one and done
