NHL 13 - 30 Details You Need to Know About the Revamped GM Mode

[TDKing]

Ummm.. who says I'm going to have all human players... and what if I only wanted to do the 1st 3 rounds of the draft. Maybe I enjoy drafting and off season stuff and that's why I don't want to play through an 82 game season.
I want to be able to have multiple off seasons before the next years game is released. I don't like to sim games. I think you people may need to think a little more before you post. ITS ABOUT HAVING THE OPTIONS to play how I want to play !!!!
Oh and I guess you just overlooked what I rreally said "While i'm glad they have an online gm mode those things I mentioned above have me somewhat disappointed especially the no customized season length

One more thing.. How long does it take you to do a 12 team fantasy Football draft ? Alot less time than playing 82 games I think. Its the reason that they gave for not having a manual draft that aggravated me the most.

Rome wasn't built in a day. At least they are finally bringing out be a gm for online play. I would rather they fix the glitch goals and make the game realistic ohh and fix the AI the worry about a better draft system. Hopefully NHl 14 will have a better Be a gm but I am happy for now

So from what I understood, the online multilayer league had an automated draft(which I'm ok with, server load/everyone else's issues) bu single player offline you still get to draft the players you want.

I'm stick with Regular GM Mode, don't care about Online GM Mode.

Lots of good stuff here.

I'm not very interested personally about the on-line things [although happy for those that are.] but the AI upgrades to BEAGM sound great. Hopefully some of the issues will be really fixed.

I'm also disappointed about no custom season length. Kinda strange they don't give Users this option. But I'll live.

I know I'm starting to get excited for '13', because it's getting harder and harder to play '12'.

Though some outlets (including us) criticized NHL 12 for having too many players rated 80 and above, EA is content with its current ratings system and believes that by surfacing the six player traits instead of three it will be easier for players and AI GMs to better understand a player's true value.

Agreed. They need to spread the ratings out.

Never really been into BAGM but if all those things play out how they say they will, I might be able to get into it.

That depends on if them highlighting more attributes to the forefront of importance, and the strategy settings actually work as they should.

I honestly feel they should spread the overalls out more myself, but I'm willing to see how the changes they did make work out first before condemning it outright.

If the team management aspect is truely fixed this will REALLY hope the enjoyment of this mode. I don't see myself playing alot of online GM.
