Good stuff last night. Win or lose, I love playing this game.

 

[DenogginizerOS]

Those Orange Crush unis were actually pretty good. Those could be our home unis, and then just make the away have white sweaters.

I am strongly opposed to anything orange...

Who is getting the game in today?

 

[BigAT]

I should have it sometime this afternoon.

 

[ph33nix]

I'll be working on stuff till 9 CT or so again, maybe I'll be done earlier

I believe you can just flat out join the club if you're on my friends list

What was the color we used last night? That was orange.

And orange is the color of some of my favorite things: orange soda, cheese puffs, and candy corn.

Are you talking about the game where I thought I made white jerseys but we played another team that had color? I think they were blue

Cause if so I thought that color was red....but since I am a little colorblind you may be right.

 

[Marvie_3]

candy corn.

people actually eat that shit?

One of us is colorblind and it isn't me. They were Netherlands orange.

 

[DenogginizerOS]

NHL 13 Companion App is on iTunes. What does this do?

 

[BigAT]

We have a colorblind guy picking out our colors?

Is it too late to cancel my preorder?

Black and white and some shit in the red family is all we need!

Keep the Orange! Orange Crush is a great hockey club name.

 

[Smokey]

The game is in my possession. The road to Elite club status starts today!

 

[McNei1y]

I think my game is coming tomorrow. Super Duper.

 

[Mrbob]

Shock of shockers, Newegg sent me my copy today. I wasn't expecting it ill Thursday or Friday! Installing now.

 

[Sokantish]

How do you play hockey guys?

 

[CB3]

How do you play hockey guys?

Ask Madden

 

[Smokey]

Lol

 

[Sokantish]

You think I didn't look for that option?

 

[Nightz]

How do you play hockey guys?

None of us know. We're all gonna learn together! And it will be glorious.

 

[BigAT]

How do you play hockey guys?

Hold Y.

 

[Marvie_3]

How do you play hockey guys?

Here's a great 4 minute tutorial that will teach you everything you need to know:

[McNei1y]

It puts the puck in the net.

 

[Sokantish]

Wow guys so far I'm really good at Hockey, I think I'm as good as that Wayne Gronkowski guy

 

[ph33nix]

Sok are you in?

Also gotta give Smokey some props. He has gone from "what is icing?" to being pretty good at the game fast. he had some nice moves yesterday that got him goal number one and I saw some patience developing snd increased stick skills


we are climbing out if this amateur hole soon!

 

[McNei1y]

Not when I hop in there!

That pretty goal was taken away from me in the disconnect

Dat siren when you score a goal though gets you hyped! I want more.

I wonder if we were getting glitched on those disconnects...everytime we were winning or came back we got dropped and points were taken away from DAT DUDE

The game is sitting on my doorstep apparently.

 

[Mrbob]

I didn't realize you play games in Ultimate Team. Cool. I just lost my first game 1 to 0.

 

[eznark]

Did you never play Madden ultimate team?

 

[BigAT]

Did you think it was Magic The Gathering with football cards?

That's actually a far more appealing concept that what MUT actually is.

 

[Mrbob]

I never dug in ultimate team in either game before. I thought it was like Magic the Gathering.

 

[Sanjuro]

yes

True, though if I didn't have the Madden league I would probably dig into it more.

 

[CB3]

Ive played a little of Mut each year. Its not terrible to start. Though the end game of super players against super players isnt that appealing.

I should have NHL in a few days

 

[Sanjuro]

Just got my copy in. Hoping you fuckers don't trade this shit in a week from now.

 

[BigAT]

Just got it, what modes should I be playing in to properly practice for this thing?

 

[Mrbob]

Damn it, just lost my second ultimate team game 3 to 2! I really need to work on my passing. All three goals I gave up were due to bad passing in my own zone.

I did create one cool play in the game, however. I was clearing the puck at the end of the second period, and the defender backed away while I swooped in and scored a goal with 0.4 remaining!

[ph33nix]

Free skate and look up video tutorials online

to do free skate go to your create a player in eashl, and press start at the edit screen to enter practice mode

dont forget to distribute points to your player unless you get a premade boost pack (which I am personally doing)


fucking shit went out for delivery at 5. still not here!!

 

[BigAT]

Good start to things, the game hard froze my system twice.

 

[Marvie_3]

Online Team Play. Similar to EASHL and the games count towards your stats.

 

[TheCrow]

Put in NHL 13 and the first song is from Shaun of the Dead. Move aside Madden.

 

[Nightz]

The game is now sitting at my front door. Can't wait to get off work.

 

[Smokey]

i'm installing the game now

i take it most of yall are like me...know little or none about hockey..id do what pheeniks said and get in dat NHL lab aka free skate

Good start to things, the game hard froze my system twice.

Edit: They also removed my name..apparently DAT DUDE is a profane name wat

 

[Sanjuro]

Game sucks. I need my Madden Transformers / Jurassic Park music.

You dodged a bullet. EA saved you from a stupid name.
