NHL 24 Patch 1.0.1 (Day 1 Patch)
We’d also like to remind you of the changes that are already reflected in-game based on your feedback from the Community Playtest, as we’ve noticed some confusion online on which gameplay changes have already made their way into the game vs what haven’t.
Sustained Pressure System Tuning
Decay Rate of Pressure Meter Increased by 100%– The new tuning sees the meter decay faster once the puck is cleared outside of the defensive zone by the defending team. This creates a more authentic feel to sustained pressure as the offensive team must keep a consistent attack in the offensive zone in order to activate full pressure. Previously the offensive team could attack, leave the zone and then re-attack to slowly build the meter which ultimately did not feel authentic to the sport. Full pressure as a result will be slightly tougher to trigger during each period of play.
Goalie Fatigue System
Goalies Recover When Puck Exits Defensive Zone– Previously goalies would only regenerate their energy during active play when the puck crossed over the opposing team’s blueline. This resulted in the goalie remaining tired for too long and throwing too many desperation saves. We have changed this to now by having goalies start to recover immediately when the puck exits the defensive zone. This means more peaks and valleys with goalie fatigue rather than consistent fatigued states.
Fatigue Meter Always Visible– To create better overall understanding of the state of the goalie’s fatigue during gameplay the respective fatigue meter will be visible at all times. This will enable players to attack and defend better based on always knowing the relevant state of the goalie’s fatigue level.
Goalie Attributes Have Increased Impact on Drain & Recovery– We have increased the impact that a goalie’s respective attributes have on both energy drain and recovery. This means breaking down a higher rated goalie will be more difficult as compared to a lower rated goalie as they will recover energy faster and fatigue slower.
Goalies More Stable When Rested– Goalies have been tuned to be more stable and positional when above 50% energy. This means that you will see fewer desperation saves overall when a goalie is in what is deemed a reasonable rested state.
Physics Based Contact
Big Checks Deal Slightly More Stamina Damage– Any big checks that are landed during gameplay will add more stamina damage to the target player and bringing into play the longer recovery get up states..
Player Size Carries More Impact on Reverse Hit Outcomes– Player size now factors more predominantly into the reverse hits that connect during a game. Smaller players will be far less likely to run through a larger player due to a size mismatch whereas a larger player will be far more likely to run over a smaller player.
Performing A Reverse Hit Results In Some Slowdown– We have added a small slowdown event that occurs when any reverse hit is thrown during gameplay to provide more balance to the mechanic. This will address the issue where a player can reverse hit a defender and then continue at full speed up the ice.
Hip Checks in Low Speed Situations– The relative speed of both the puck carrier and defensive player throwing the hip check will now be taken into consideration in these game situations resulting in less dramatic hip checks during slower pace of play moments.
Global Lacrosse Deke Tuning
Lacrosse Deke (The Michigan) Effectiveness Tied to Deke Ability– In an effort to help control the impact of the lacrosse deke on the overall game experience we have connected it to a player’s deking attribute. The tuning change results in the speed of the deke being impacted. A lower deke attribute will result in the animation taking longer to execute and a higher attribute will result in a faster execution of the deke. This applies globally no matter which controller setting you are playing on.
X-Factor Tuning
Close Quarters– This X-factor has had the following tuning to make it more balanced for competitive play.
- Reduced the distance required to activate Close Quarters from 30 to 20 feet
- Reduced the accuracy bonus of Close Quarters by 50%
- Reduced the accuracy bonus of Close Quarters Superstar Ability by 75%
Human Goalies Tuning
Increased Tether Distance– A human goalie using the new Tether Controls now has an expanded area to move within this control set. We have increased the movement range from 3 feet to 5 feet allowing for more ability to cut down angles and overall freedom of movement.
Increased Goalie Instinct Boost When Correct– When a human goalie guesses the shot target correctly after engaging the Instinct System, they will receive a higher boost to their respective save probability.
Removed Goalie Instinct Penalty When Incorrect– The penalty applied to a human goalie when they guess incorrectly within the Instinct System has been removed. Any incorrect guess will not carry any additional impact on the save scenario.
Reduced Fatigue Impact on Human Goalies– Given how human goalies will potentially make more adjustments in game as compared to AI goalies, we have slightly softened the over fatigue impact on human goalies.
Pokecheck
Reverted Speed Loss to NHL23 Tuning– We have tuned back the speed loss that was added during production back to the same tuning that was shipped in NHL23.
General Gameplay Tuning
Nets Being Knocked Off Less– We have tuned down how often nets are knocked off the moorings to have it happen less frequently.
Glass Breaking– We have tuned down how often the glass will break so that it happens less frequently.
