NHL 19 Patch 1.60 Available Now - Adds Uniforms, Removes In-Game Chat From HUT Competitive Seasons/HUT Champions Games

So HUT fixes/updates only? What a shocker!

They add the stadium series uniforms, but there’s still no stadiums to use.

Hut, that's where their focus is.

Not sure if it’s patch related but I just had one of my most exciting games, first game after the patch. I won 2-1 with :38 left in OT. Very tightly checked game with minimal chances for both teams. CPU goal came off a rebound and mine tied the game with about 10:00 left in the 3rd that the goalie got a piece of but it trickled behind him. Both teams finished with 30 shots each, which is rare for me to have such low shot totals. Overall a very fun and intense game.

Default or a specific slider set?

I use TNK’s with a few modifications to fit my playing style.

on superstar or all star level?

Superstar. Biggest and best adjustment I’ve made recently was turning down the CPU aggression slider from 50 to 30. They seem to play better positional defense with it a little lower since they’re not always in the face of the puck carrier. I haven’t lowered the user one yet but I may try that later and see how it plays out.

First game post patch and I know I'm probably reaching but I had my best passing % I've ever had with this series, 85%. I doubt they made an adjustment in this area but my passes were going where I wanted them for once. :)
I'm back into this game and it's playing a fun game of hockey for me. I'm on AS defaults with penalties all the way up, 8 minute periods, latest tuner.

I keep switching from TNK's to Jay's, but willing to try this.
Are you maxing out each individual penalty type slider or just these two?

Penalties still seem off

UGH...too many or too few?
User or Cpu or both?
Dowie

A little too few. It is better with those 2 penalty sliders maxed. In the last 2 games the CPU has only had 1 power play and I’ve had about 8 if I remember correctly. I’m not that concerned as it’s only been 2 games. If it keeps up for more then I’ll try figuring out something.

Damn - regardless which set i play with I am not getting many either (nor is the cpu). I swear - everytime I think I can finally get out of my test franchise and start a real one something else rears it's ugly head....now it's penalties. Well, let me know if you come up with something.
Thanks,
Dowie

Could have been a fluke for those two games. Just played a game with 4 power plays for the CPU, 3 for me. I can live with those numbers. Seems to be random which I’m fine with.

The two above as well as the main slider that goes to 4.

Thanks - appreciate it!

Meh.  That's not even Tampa Bay's actual third jersey anymore.  Now they have a monochrome, silver-and-black kit that has the logo (in grey)  on the front.

The photos in the OP of the uniforms are not the correct ones. In the past, you had to download the latest rosters to get the updated uniforms.

You guys that are having issues with the penalties, can you tell me what level, game type, and period length you're using i.e. Allstar, Full-sim, 10 minutes.

Superstar, full-sim, 10 min. I’m actually leaving my sliders alone. Penalties have evened out nicely over my last few games and I’m seeing anywhere from 1-5 powerplays per team a game. Perfectly acceptable for me.

pro or all star level - 10 min - sim - Jays or TNK's slider sets (mostly Jay's)

So my first go around the game stop simulating at 2026 in franchise mode, game get lost and leaves you stuck with simulating message. Has anyone else had this happen? reinstalled and started new season and will wait and see if it happens again, as precaution I will trade all future draft picks for 2025.
I don't get why EA doesn't give a rats *** about franchise mode other than generating extra money like online play does(they already got you to buy the game I guess), It is not my fault they don't employ someone smart enough to figure out how to make extra money off of franchise mode. Just off the top of my head i can think of 20 things they could sell throughout the year I'd pay for. Holy ******* EA I'd give you 10-20$ for a staduim series add-on or to change what the hell the announcer talk about, **** I'd pay money to get waffleboarded gone. They are so stupid at EA marketing because franchise mode can not be tracked quantitatively properly because it is not played online and they are not smart enough to even try and see if franchise mode players would spend on extras.
ps. sorry for rant mate, 2mins to me for ranting.

I wouldn’t give them any extra money during the season for this mess. I’m already mad at myself for paying full price for the game as it is.

Really enjoying the game with the latest patch and tuner (I checked to make sure I was on it this time), playing default All-Star, Full Sim.

Default pro, full sim plays really well too with 1.04 tuner.
This game more than any other is the worst for slider chasing.
Just too many options without clear details as to what each slider actually does.
I ditched slider chasing a couple weeks ago, and am just enjoying the game now.
Dowie

I fully agree dowie!

Might have to try this, last patched screwed up my sliders.
