Here is what they need to fix in my opinion.
Online play needs to slow down.
AI needs to learn hockey 101.
AI needs faster reaction.
AI needs to learn to "see" passing lanes. In BAP I can't tell you how many times there was a sweet lane to me in prime real estate but by the time I called for it and the game decided to pass to me the lane was gone. However a human player would have seen that lane and sent me the puck (actually with other people I do most the sending).
AI Dmen need to stop being able to blind reach behind them grab Xcrease passes, that or give that ability to human Dmen.
Bring back defense, seriously playing D in NHL12 was like slamming your dick in a door whilst all the other entries if you were good at D you made the opposing team's life suck.
Find a balance with hitting, I have high strength, high balance, decent size, and still get rocked non stop and I am talking about hits that should at best make me just lose the puck
Thats the problem with be a pro single player. If you are playing a Sniper or Power Forward, you literally have to skate it in and create your own scoring chances, or just hope to shovel in rebounds. The CPU sucks at seeing when you are open, and often times they have already decided to do something stupid so thrash the call for pass button all you like, nuthin doin. i.e. I can't count how many times Ive been coming up the middle with a guy on the wing carrying the puck....2 on 1, what does he do? tees up a slap shot from a bad angle shortly after going over the blue line....WHAT THE ****. Although I think that has more to do with line changes. When its deemed time to change lines, you could have a 5 on 0 going and the CPU would just get rid of the puck just over the blue line.
