Where did I champion NHL 12? They're using a modified PS2-gen engine so there's only so much they can do with it. The game is going to be a broken mess like always but it does feel different in several areas and I happen to like some of the changes they've made(better rebounds, game speed is slowed down, minor bumps knock the puck loose, etc).

Swim won't be a Preds fan because he doesn't want to lose another team to relocation.

Hey Noz, didn't realize you played Halo. :p

Oh, and I'm for sure going to be getting NHL 12 on release day, yayyyyyy.

Man, if you could call that playing. I'm kind of retarded so SWAT is about the only thing I understand that doesn't scare me, that and running over teammates in big team battle. That was not a good showing for me though, had played way beyond what I should've and was sort of at the point of losing the will to live.

Any tips besides aim for the face? I find I hold my own pretty well against people of any rank, but then there'll be a few super high level people that just absolutely demolish me. Sometimes feel like I'm moving and looking in a non-skilled way.

EDIT: Our swat stats are kind of similar, you average 15 kills per game, i'm 14. Even with the disparity in matches played many of our medal counts are quite close. Sent you a friend's request, I can't always mic up but we should totally play sometime.

Yeah, I was only in SWAT just to breeze past those two kill challenges. I feel like the reason I do well, especially in SWAT, are because of my awareness (thanks to my A40's, which also make playing NHL games that much more awesome,) and my general knowledge of where they're going to spawn and where they're going to push. Like in that one game, we'd kill them all on one side of the map, then that means they're more then likely going to spawn and push from the other side, so really all that's needed for that map is top control.

I just found it funny when I matched up with you, I was like "Wait, he seems familiar," and then it hit me. lol

On a hockey related note, the Jets unveiled their jerseys today.

Is it just me or is there already enough blue and white jerseys in the league? :l

Wow, it's like all of the terrible colors Viz used had an orgy and that was the resulting bastard child.

I really like the home jerseys there. I'd like the aways if it weren't for the terrible mishmash of stripes on the arms.

Junior, please.
Hey guys can I still join? This will be my first year for joining an EASHL team but it would be great to take my game online and play with some GAFers.

I've played a TON of Be A Pro, all defence, and I also play D in real life, so I know the position reasonably well.

Gamertag: thelatestmodel
Position: Defence (usually left)
Jersey: My favourite ones are taken, but Nick Leddy seems like a nice young man so I'll go with 8
Player name: Not sure yet
Favourite NHL team: Chicago Blackhawks

:lol, i'm actually kinda glad they got it back. Really excited as we get closer to release here, and honestly looking forward to how this game is shaping up.

i do hope next year presentation is a big focus though.

I hope the shot block button still protects you completely after the whistle. That shit gets old pretty quick of just having people ram you after the whistle.

Just ignore Viz. He'll throw batteries at you if you're not careful.

I'd rather they fix the broken gameplay parts they've been ignoring for the last few years.

less than a week to go gentlemen until IT'S ON!

I'm so tempted to get the Season Pass so I can play this weekend, but the fact that Marvie got it already and I will be able to give him shit about it until the end of time is keeping me from handing over my Microsoft Spacebucks to EA

yeah that was a real cute story you made up about your buddy going in on half on something, very shrewd. You may have fooled some of the sheep that post in this thread with that tall tale, but we both know the deal...

You paid $25 to EA to rent the game for 3 days, hope you are as ashamed of yourself as I am of you, sucka!

I have it.....but you already knew that since you send me 15 messages a day about in on XBL. ;)


And I'll repeat what I said in the OP, if you club hop, I'm not keeping stats for you.

Well, I want to get the hang of EASHL. I'll see if he wants to join the GAF team until the regular game releases. He basically plays with our Finnish buddy and he's on FHR (which is a top team). With the new rules, it's not like he's going to be able to play full time with him.

The only time I would club hop is for the first 3 days. Like I said, the only other guy we really played with on FHR and won't be club hopping due to the new rules.

what is there to get the hang of? it's the same damn game!!!

you need to choose GAF this year Milly, those other glitchers you play with don't care about you, they care about their stats.

I need you around so I can come up with new ways to insult your country-ass everyday. Gets boring having only Marvie to ridicule, he's pretty much tuned me out at this point...

Haha. I struggle every year at the beginning.

And I'm gonna stick with you guys, for sure. You'd be so terrible without me cheesing it up.
