Thread: *NHL Dev Team Needs your Help* Crowd Chants and Tendencies!.

They should have a mini-game called "wait in line for concessions while the person in front of you is on the cell phone, ordering for 5 people, calls them because she forgot what they wanted, forgot to bring enough cash, can't find her damn ATM card, then when she does, it gets declined and she has to make a big scene about it."

Realism.

UGH. I can understand some of the harder ones (Byuttfuglyin - SP, that guy on CHI) but COME ON! Do your due diligence if you're creating a product here.

due diligence.

Byfuglien = BUFFLIN.

Names like Toews are more difficult., and what about Lang (LAHHHNG) wanting to be Lang (LAAAANG) and Huet (HEWAYYY) wanting to be Huet (HEWEHHTTTT) after leaving LA. That is confusing.

Oooh...Oooh...they can do a kiss camera and home team trivia for during commercial breaks and during intermissions either do a fan participation thingy or a 100 midget widgets playing.

Well yea, they need to do their due diligence. ESPECIALLY Gary Thorne, who is an announcer!

*Yes, nobody really likes Gary Thorne anyway, so it's probably not doing much for his credibility.

I've always hoped for a bull***t chant after a questionable call.

How about the start looking at things in the REAL hockey game that they've been missing since forever, like more coincidental penalties and misconducts. It took them TEN YEARS to get scoring right for crying out loud.

Player A passes to Player B. Who passes it to player C. Back to Player B, who scores. They FINALLY award an assist to Player A. That frustrated me for nearly a decade!

Awww, and here I was thinking only Vancouver did the Turco chant. Well, we do it better anyways :P

Check that out for how it really should be done.

I hope they actually do put in all these things. I think that 08 was a real step forward gameplay-wise, and if they can move to the cosmetic area (not that the graphics are bad, they're really nice!) and touch up the realism, like Goalie helmets, rink/board ads (if legally possible) and crowd chants like they're doing here. Player specific would be good too. It wouldn't make much sense if you had the Kings chanting "Tuuuurco" at the Dallas Stars, if they had traded him in your season.

I guess nobody's with me that EA needs to fix all the stupid ****ing problems before putting realistic crowd chants.

How about more than 3 fights in a damn game, especially against rivals.
