Gameplay Changes

• Pokechecking Reworks

  Pokechecking was a feature that felt non-existent for the longest time, primarily because there was no visual feedback. Now, when engaging in a stick-to-stick battle with the opposing puck carrier, an animation will trigger. Pokechecking proves to be a solid tool, especially when facing a larger opponent that you can't bodycheck. It's worth noting that the pokechecking range decreases with higher game difficulty, but it is now more accurate than before! Additionally, changes were made to the puck when a player is pokechecked. The puck will flip a little higher, making it easier for takeaways.
  
• Bodychecking Formula Reworks

Ever stacked up the absolute Terminator with over 100 bodychecking stat and still got staggered or knocked down by the smallest player going at 1MPH? Not anymore! We've tweaked the bodychecking formula to better determine when a player gets staggered or knocked down by a bodycheck. Remember, your skating speed before delivering a bodycheck is crucial. However, if a player has a significantly lower bodychecking stat than their opponent, different results may occur based on the skating speed before the hit. If the speed and checking stat of an opponent are weaker, chances are your Terminator won't even get staggered! On the flip side, a player with a heavy bodychecking stat AND speed will crush those smaller players!" It's a work in progress, and we'll certainly consider all feedback to make further adjustments!
