Not all the gold ...

that glitters. It has indeed already listed some of what here and what was good less well reacted,. I have 13 and 14 played NHL detail and see both advantages and disadvantages.
The in my view by emphasizing:

The AI ​​of computer opponent is better than in NHL 13. For this race, the own player that you just do not control yourself, permanently sidelined. Even more. The pass has also become worse rather than better game. Come the cross passes now finally more at. Are the long passes often hit or miss. You see over there another player in good position and fits. And what does the?. Runs suddenly during the pass in another direction. Likewise you like to get in the third attack problems to find a free player, as the gentlemen prefer it like beside and in front of a running directly with and to prevent a shot at.
Other hand, ends up almost every pass of the computer opponents at right man.

It is so often claimed that Goalies had been improved in NHL 14. But is only partially true. Goalies, who also properly maintain what and not let every 2 Shot purely be found almost only in the really expensive categories. And even there romps so quite a bit of windfalls. And even with the best goalies, it is so that only every second-third game keep really good. It is still so that shots from the side too easily end up in the goal. And Queer passes right outside the gate also often lead to the goal. Especially frustrating when computer opponents who then often Putting via "One Timer". Where it was still so in NHL 13 that the top players and top were usually. Can only really rely on a few at NHL. At least in the normal gold area. But the hat and other higher classes often bring little advantage. So you need not only a lot of pucks that can earn luckily with a little patience and effort well. But must try to the best players to see for themselves some players.
It is not uncommon that a controlled from the computer's own players suddenly a fight begins Away from the action. Total annoying and costs bonus points.
The control is still really only for very experienced players. With hybrid one comes unfortunately more often than one would like to its limits.

I welcome that one can earn in all game modes puck now. In principle, the classes classification really good thought. Only one should not necessarily rely on. I have for example a very good, albeit rare Goalkeeper simple gold found class. The, if you train him properly, an expensive and good HAT goalie in no way inferior.

The various shades of the player in bronze, silver and gold is a good overall innovation.
The checks and fights now look much better. Also, the puck behavior is very real. Ok, except for the exaggerated many slats and post shots.
The new online modes make you feel good. But are against real opponents also often very frustrating. But if one has in all games with online modes.
The chance of a volley, which then leads to the success is finally not only a matter of luck.

There are slight improvements to NHL 13. The purchase worth conditionally. Except for the completely botched PS 3 version of NHL 15 is the number one of the best, most realistic among sports games. In addition, "Icehockey Separate The Man From The Boys
