Hockey Ultimate Team: NHL 18 HUT Thread (All HUT talk goes here)

[Cloned]

Some people almost play like superstar AI in Div 3 and CS. I'm convinced I'm not using pokecheck/hitting/passing like the elite players. Sometimes I feel like others just hold onto pass and let go after entering zone.

I always hold onto pass. You think you can see everything on the ice but sometimes things happen quickly and you need to be able to have that quick escape route. Worst case scenario I can always cancel the pass with L1.

I pretty much hold the pass button the moment any of my players touch the puck.

I figured. Some of theses passes are flying at rocket speed, even when the player doesn't have the puck for long. Going to give it a try.

Do you know if people hold onto pokecheck too? I know people hold hit and switch players making AI complete the hit/board pin but I could never copy this properly.

Holding onto poke check just activates the defensive skill stick, which can be useful at times, but no, I generally don't hold onto poke check all the time.

Pulled Evo Crosby in one of those weekly preorder packs. Got Legend Lanny and base OEL from a Halloween CS reward. Unreal.

 

[Dylonus]

Some people do that to see if you're checking trade offers

Sadly, that hasn't been the case. I've rejected those offers and never gotten another one. I've received at least 25 scam offers and maybe 3 legit ones.

I pulled Gonchar in the weekly pack this morning

Every single player I've faced in CS this round has Messier as their 1C.

 

[Rhaegar Targaryen]

Completed the 94 McDonald set. He's crazy good. Extremely fast, unreal shot and every one-timer goes in.

Every single player I've faced in CS this round has Messier as their 1C.

Probably because he's a cheap, 90 overall centre

 

[CourtneyDagger50]

Every wrist shot far side from the slot goes in.
Have fun.

I wonder if PG Canuck has him too? Heard his likeable in Vancouver

Superstar challenge: Get a shutout.
I can't score so might as well try being the goalie. I think I made 3 stops the whole game and got the shutout lol

Some dude ranked in the 18000's in CS on PS4 played the #1 ranked player and won, and got 10000 points for the win, LOL.

He's in first place now and no one is going to catch him. He has a 8000 point lead over #2.

I saw that... I was wondering how he got that many points.

 

[Rhaegar Targaryen]

I've probably gotten screwed out of over 25,000 coins from players quitting the game early. Only about half the time I actually get coins.

Holy hell and a half

Hopefully this is brought to EA's attention and they fix how atrocious CS works.

I was #63 in one CS, lost a game and dropped to 8,000. It's ridiculous.

 

[CourtneyDagger50]

Can I say again how much I hate losing games because the puck hits my goalie and bounces over him and into the net?!

 

[Mav3rick07]

I just outshot someone 36-6 online and lost 4-3 in overtime.

I feel sick .


His goalie (Neuvirth) played amazing . So many point blank chances. Meanwhile, my Holtby shits the bed. Two saves on six shots.

 

[Dylonus]

Once again, I put up Ovechkin and all I get are people offering me a contract or a coach, hoping I mess up rejecting the trade and end up hitting Accept.

**** SCAMMERS!

 

[Dylonus]

Quicksold junk to get a 40k pack... Got a TOTW Barrie, another random TOTW... and MIKE MODANO.

Just how.

I don't make people quit that often but this happened to me a few times. Common occurrence between a few is quitting almost right after puck goes in net pre celebration.

 

[BruinsFTW]

I swear people either complain the game is too easy on highest difficulty but now that the HARDEST difficulty is actually hard people still bitch? Which is it? You want a challenge or not..

And peep this...

I guarantee the ones of you with All-Star teams if you get your team down to a 3, 3 1/2 star rating you will notice the computer plays a lot different on Superstar. That ice tilt shit is real. Throw some crap bronze, silvers on your 4th line, 3rd pairing and back up goalie to drop your rating and it'll be a lot easier. If you still get owned well your just not very good.

 

[BruinsFTW]

**** SCAMMERS! Seriously!!!

I keep getting trade offers for Ovechkin and they're people sending a gold contract or a coach, hoping I accidentally accept.

People like that suck. Don't be a *****e. Send a legit offer or earn your damn cards.

Like someone said majority people do that to see if your checking your offers, the rest are yeah scumbags.

I finally got someone to accept a trade for Halloween Chara. Traded my EVO Matthews for him. I'll just buy Matthews back.

I don't get how your pack luck is so ridiculous. Your either A. Lying or exaggerating or B. The luckiest f***ing person there is because almost any pack you open you pull EVOs, Legends or whatever other special cards. Insane. Or C. Your just from EA trying to get us to buy packs lmao

Not (a). I've posted things on Twitter. Definitely not C haha.

It's B.and to top it off, I bought a 40k pack tonight and got two TOTW (crappy ones) and... MIKE MODANO!

 

[Dylonus]

That's what I have and it doesn't include Ovechkin or Modano. Backstrom is worthless now. Page 2 has Malkin, Keith and some other 87's. I have Ghost EVO as well. I'll likely sell Backstrom for a LW or LD that fit synergies... i have Josi, OEL, Matthews, Gaudreau and a few others to sell that could be like 4-5k each or more.
