I know that this thread, and forum, is dead but I wanted to let everyone know that EA has patched in a majority of the pieces that were missing... and therefore, the game is more complete now. Is it worth the full $60? Hell no - EA shouldn't get full monies for it. However, I did get a new copy for $30, which I felt was a good deal. The graphics are good, and the game is still by and large the same.

One thing that is missing that I actually like is the playing of a goalie in online team play - almost no one ever wanted to play a goalie, so now they have removed that issue. Games should be started much faster now. I don't know if this is also true for the Drop-In games.

I've stayed away from reading much about this GamerGate thing because it seems like a whole lot of stupid nerds and bigoted people yelling and making fun of others that are not like them. Is that true? If so, why the fuck has it gained so much attention? The Internet has always had its own class of people that think they can say and do what they want when they are behind a keyboard and don't have to face someone in person, so if this is something much bigger then maybe I should look into it.

...or maybe I shouldn't. If it warranted Jeff and the whole staff to actually write this AND THEN TAKE QUESTIONS FROM THE COMMENTS SECTION then... wow. Not worth my time, and shame on the people that are being true assholes. I have an Extra Life marathon tomorrow to get prepared for (i.e. making sure XSplit still works and buy a lot of booze).

I keep hearing that EA will patch in a lot of the missing functionality, so I'm curious if people are waiting for this to happen to make the jump from NHL 14, or if it's well known that 15 will never be worth it.

I'm still playing 14, and like it, but if the online community starts to shuffle to the new hotness, I want to know. I'm sure it looks good on the PS4...

This.

Mmmmm, no. Good luck with that, though. If all you do is free to play crap, you are doomed.

I agree that if Sarah is the main character in Season 3, I'm not playing. I don't find her fascinating at all, mainly because she's stupid as a brick and won't come out of her "life is magical and fun let's be friends" world.

I hope if the Bombers mention Ryan, it'll be nothing more than something like "fuck you, you loveable piece of shit" and move on with the show. Something short, amusing, and in the right mindset to let everyone know that they still think about him, they still miss him, but they can still move on.

Welcome aboard, you two. I don't really get what people were getting upset about (I've not read the site in the past couple of days), so I'm assuming it's because people thought GB was going to hire some random people instead of "friends of the site". Is that what people are upset about?

If so... sorry guys. GB is a small site. They are personality-driven. If it wasn't blatantly obvious that Dan was going to join the site then I don't know what to tell you. If you thought that any of us random fans had a chance, then... yeah. You've not been here long.
