NHL 15 – The Best New Hockey Game of 2014

Unfortunately, NHL 15 is the Only Hockey Game of 2014 and is Missing Features.

Review and Opinion

On September 9^th 2014 EA Sports released the long awaited NHL 15 game across all current console platforms. The first ever NHL game released on the new Xbox One and Play Station 4, this game had allot of expectations for its gameplay and features. EA Sports has delivered on the gameplay, giving players a more realistic feel with the all new physics engine. On the new Consoles the graphics are unprecedented for an NHL game. With realistic player features and looks every player actually looks like their real life counterparts, as opposed to the generic player faces in NHL 14. The crowd in the stadium has reached a new level, with hard-core fans at every game following their home teams and an incredible amount of fan models, each fan looks and acts different, like a real game. With the improved graphics, physics and realistic gameplay, NHL 15 is the most enjoyable in game experience for an NHL game to date.

 However as an all new NHL game, players were looking for the added little features that truly make a game addictive. For an NHL game this means that after players finish a game there can be a 3 stars feature(top 3 players of the game), replay mode (watch the games highlights), rematch (play again), stats (goals, assists, +/-) and an overview of where shots and hits are made or taken. In the new NHL 15 game there is only the replay and rematch options, making players feel that they are not getting the full enjoyment out of their game, as the old NHL 14 game has all of these features. Furthermore while playing GM mode (simulation of a real life hockey team owner) players used to be able to play as their minor league AHL team and follow the scores and keep track of all your players in the minors. On top of this players could also be their own coach, making custom plays for the team and changing lines easily. In NHL 15 gamers can’t play as their AHL minor league team or even look at the schedule or stats, and gamers are not allowed to customize plays and the line changing is much more complicated, with the computer making all of your decisions. This is making gamers feel that they are not truly the GM of their team any more and more so just along for the ride.

The fact of the matter here is that EA Sports has essentially released a console sports game that is still in Beta (not a finalized version of the game), and this is the first time in any sports game franchise history that this has been done, why? Well looking at the market, Hockey is one of the less popular sports in North America and Europe, when compared to Soccer and the NFL. There are multiple NFL and Soccer game franchises and therefore EA has competition and must put out a better game than other developers. On the other hand EA is the only game designer to have produced any NHL games in the past couple of years, thus no competition. Keeping these variables in mind is the reason EA has not released a finalized version of NHL 15, they hold the monopoly for the niche game and do not have an excess of a million consumers like their Soccer and NFL games. This makes the game less profitable than their other franchises making the company focus more on games other than NHL 15.

Unfortunately die hard hockey fans and gamers out there like myself, will have to wait for features to be added to NHL 15 at later dates to fully enjoy the game. EA Sports, at launch of the game released a statement to consumers apologizing for the state of the game and going on to say that it will be updated and finalized in the coming months. For a game that costs 70 dollars Canadian, in my opinion unless you are a diehard hockey fan there is no need to purchase this game until all of the updates have come out.

To EA Sports, as the sole company producing NHL games please do your best to create a game on time that gamers and players alike can enjoy, do not butter up the game until release date and then tell your consumers that you are missing features. As a multimillion dollar company, you should anticipate the time it will take to create a new game on a new platform. Activision did this successfully with Call of Duty, beginning work on the game for Xbox One and Play Station 4, 3 years before release. Please EA, care more about your monopoly in the NHL games franchise, and complete your game sooner than later, in turn making your consumers happy, and the company more profitable.

So all in all NHL 15 is enjoyable with the new physics and crowd systems and incredible graphics on the new Xbox and Play Station consoles. Unfortunately the true NHL gamer will not be impressed by the complete lack of any new features and the removal of key features, GM mode features, online team play, live the life features and statistics.

It’s your call.
