This year, EA Vancouver is calling on its elite talent to be the difference-makers, introducing Superstar X-Factors, which <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/2021\/08\/19\/inspired-by-madden-nhl-22-introduces-superstar-x-factors-to-change-the-metagame\">provide special skills and moves to the best of the best<\/a>. This will impact the game by forcing you to anticipate these players\u2019 abilities every time they hit the ice, and they\u2019ll be present in every major game mode. To learn more about\u00a0this feature and how it\u2019s taking NHL 22 to new places, we sat down with producer Clement Kwong, who also answered some of our other bigger questions about the latest entry in EA\u2019s NHL series.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Some players have reservations about the Superstar X-Factors being overpowered and giving certain teams an edge. For instance, why not just pick the Tampa Bay Lightning every time since they&#8217;d be stacked with these abilities? You get an all-star goaltender in Vasilevskiy\u00a0alongside elite talent in Kucherov, Point, Stamkos, and Hedman. How is EA Vancouver ensuring that the X-Factor abilities are balanced appropriately while remaining fun?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Kwong: <\/strong>There are a couple of things here. One is we&#8217;re constantly working with our community, with our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ea.com\/game-changers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EA Game Changers<\/a> group. Since NHL 16, we had started this specific group with different experts, covering gameplay, Be A Pro, and all kinds of different modes. So with X-Factor this year, in addition to it being available in all modes and having integration there, we also have gameplay experts within that group to give us feedback. We are constantly giving them weekly builds, making updates and gameplay changes, tuning the mechanics. There&#8217;s a fair bit of feedback that we&#8217;ve gotten already from there.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Second, obviously, is the technical test that just wrapped up. With the competitive balance side of things, what better mode to test it than our CHEL community? If there are any imbalances or exploits, that&#8217;s where we find out. So those two data points are really informing any kind of balancing, changes, or tuning we may need to do for launch.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How often do X-Factors activate during a game? I know fewer players have the powerful \u201cZone\u201d X-Factors, and they\u2019re for the big superstars, but how many times will I see Auston Matthews\u2019 \u201cShock and Awe\u201d ability hit? Is it every time he goes out on the ice he can do that move, or do you need to do something to activate it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As opposed to Madden&#8217;s design model where you have to throw a [certain amount of] yards to completion on a single play, the game of hockey is different in terms of having line changes, the speed of the game, and it doesn\u2019t have special teams outside of the penalty kill and power play. We had to take a bit of a different approach where the \u201cZone\u201d and \u201cSuperstar\u201d abilities are always active in the right context.<\/p>\n<p>Take McDavid&#8217;s Wheels Zone ability, for example. He&#8217;s known for being the fastest player in the game, with or without the puck. You&#8217;re not going to have his ability if you are in your own defensive zone or if you&#8217;re hustling back on a defensive assignment. What you will see, though, is if he has a puck and he&#8217;s carrying it through the neutral zone and the o-zone, that&#8217;s where you&#8217;ll have the ability activated. So depending on the ability, it is contextual. We don&#8217;t have a specific trigger or event to activate it; it&#8217;s always active in the right context. And the reason for that goes back to what I said earlier; hockey is such a fast sport with line changes. If we put in place a design where you had to trigger it, you really wouldn&#8217;t have too many moments. We tested that early on.<\/p>\n<p><strong>It\u2019s been said the X-Factors are going to change up the metagame. How have they changed the way that you play the game?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With the challenge of the pace of the game and the team game, really. I\u2019ll use the example of the World of CHEL. We&#8217;re changing up the way we&#8217;re building our player classes with a lot of feedback from the community. So far, we&#8217;ll say, \u2018Hey, this is the go-to [build]\u2019\u2019 and then a day later, it\u2019s like, \u2018Actually, no, this is the go-to, here&#8217;s how you counter it.\u201d That, to me, is an interesting exploration. It\u2019s not just about min-maxing anymore. Before in CHEL, you tried to stack these abilities, find out different combinations, and which one to give the one extra point. It&#8217;s no longer about that one extra point, even though that&#8217;s kind of a secondary layer available. In World of CHEL, it\u2019s about your playstyle and the opponents you\u2019re up against.<\/p>\n<p>A short example I\u2019ll use is truculence, which is kind of a big man ability and you can basically bowl over anyone. I tend to play as a smaller build with shot accuracy, or the ability to stickhandle, and I was playing someone and they just absolutely destroyed me, even though they&#8217;re [so] much slower. I just could not get around them. So, there have to be different ways to counter those new player classes.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/preview\/2021\/09\/14\/answers-to-our-biggest-questions-nhl-22-questions\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here to watch embedded media<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>So every player class should feel a little bit different and you have to figure out ways to counter these player types? One of my bigger complaints in previous iterations is every player felt too similar. In CHEL, you could tweak some stats, but they never felt like enough and you\u2019d use similar tactics no matter who was on the ice.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yeah, I would say definitely more thought needs to go into how you are building your player class and how you\u2019re building players in your lineup. And for Franchise mode, team chemistry plays such a big role. It&#8217;s changing the way that you&#8217;re building and managing\u00a0your roster lineups.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Let&#8217;s bring up the poke check because it was pretty powerful in NHL 21. Has that been tuned any for NHL 22?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To be honest, that&#8217;s something we&#8217;ve been hearing a lot during the production of NHL 22 from our Game Changers, who are like, \u201cHey, where there\u2019s an opportunity, let\u2019s fix poke checking.\u201d That\u2019s where stick and physics come in. So both when you look at the ability side where we&#8217;ve separated players defensively, like Victor Hedman or Drew Doughty are much better, much more efficient at poking away pucks without taking penalties. That&#8217;s one layer.<\/p>\n<p>The second layer is having the stick actually react realistically. It adds more predictability to how we&#8217;re solving for poke checks, both in terms of the force and power that the defenders or the skaters are poking at, as well as how the stick interacts with the body and with the puck. So, the short answer is yes, absolutely. When you boot up the game and you play this year, we&#8217;ve made some massive improvements in that area.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Be A Pro got a huge upgrade last year, and this year it\u2019s said to have multi-season storylines. Can you talk about kind of how that&#8217;s going to work and what are some of those storylines?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With X-Factors changing the journey in Be A Pro in terms of you wanting to progress and unlock and grow into the most powerful abilities, we needed a way to tell those stories. We wanted to address some of the feedback that we had in terms of, \u2018Hey, it was great you had this conversation system, but it&#8217;s kind of repetitive and you don&#8217;t have multi-season storylines.\u2019 Well, this year, we brought X-Factors, we brought new challenges, we brought in new storylines that span multiple seasons. So you have your example of winning multiple divisions, winning multiple awards, all the way to what Pat Maroon did &#8211; winning multiple cups in consecutive seasons with different teams. And what the new challengers allow you to do is unlock new X-Factor points so that you can unlock slots for abilities to assign to your created character.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>This is probably a question you get every year, but it\u2019s essential to the gameplay. Whether it\u2019s on defense, offense, or being able to create better plays, what improvements to the A.I. did the EA Vancouver team really focus on this year?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A.I. is an area that we have a yearly investment in. I don&#8217;t think there is a way we can say we&#8217;re going to fix all our A.I. issues because as our community plays and players play, the A.I. is bound to take some actions that don&#8217;t make sense to the player. Specifically for defensive A.I. and joining the rush, we\u2019ve made some improvements and upgrades there, more at the core A.I. level instead of a massive new feature overhaul.<\/p>\n<p>The other piece is how A.I. players support you as a player in HUT or World of CHEL now that you have these new X-Factor abilities. So, with a lot of A.I. players also possessing these abilities, like with passing, for example, they\u2019ve been upgraded to accommodate what it means to have better team play and pass the puck to you when you have the One-Tee zone ability [which gives you advanced power and accuracy on one-timers]. So, there have been minor updates, but it&#8217;s something that we chip away at year after year.<\/p>\n<article class=\"embedded-entity\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/answers-to-our-biggest-questions-nhl-22-questions-1.jpg\" typeof=\"Image\" alt=\"\" class=\"image-style-body-default\" \/> <\/article>\n<h2>From checking to Franchise mode changes, more quick confirmations from Kwong:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>There won\u2019t be any new skill moves like \u201cThe Michigan\u201d from last year, but new animations are tied to the new zone and superstar X-Factor abilities. Kwong used the example of a power forward having better strength and balance, showcasing this with\u00a0an animation to lean in and drive the lane [while still] being able to protect the puck from the opposing defender.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Has checking improved? Kwong says so. \u201cWe&#8217;ve definitely updated the models for collisions and stumbles, specifically.\u201d However, Kwong says it won\u2019t always come down to player size when separating a player from the puck, referencing a player\u2019s strength and balance in determining how easily they go down. He used Pavel Datsyuk as an example of a player who was only 5\u201911 but was still strong on his skates and said this is where the new X-Factor abilities shine for certain player types.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>You can expect more realistic stick interactions and psychics this time, with players batting pucks out of the air and disrupting passing lanes more naturally. This also led to him saying that you\u2019ll see fewer penalties with poke checks. \u201cIn the past, you\u2019d see poke checks through skates, and obviously, that\u2019s not realistic when you trip players up, and that\u2019s a been a source of frustrations. That\u2019s one thing that\u2019s fixed now.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>For Franchise mode fans, finding the right player fit for coaching systems will still be a factor, and the trade deadline minigame (sadly) remains untouched. Kwong also said scouting hasn\u2019t changed much, except for the ability to uncover if players have X-Factors. He said to focus on having the best scouts possible because there will be more gems in later rounds. Line chemistry is also a bigger factor in this mode due to the X-Factors. \u201cThe really straightforward example I use is you want to make sure that you&#8217;re supplementing your passing Zone ability player with someone that can also shoot, whether that&#8217;s [increased] one-timer, slap shot, or wrist shot accuracy,\u201d Kwong says. \u201cPutting complementary skill sets together will greatly increase your line chemistry, while [soley] depending on one player [with these special abilities] will only give you a small boost.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Kwong confirmed that players can have a max of one Zone ability and up to five Superstar abilities total.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>No new scenes were added to Be A Pro, but Kwong said there are hundreds of new conversations that also tie into the mode\u2019s new podcast show to support your journey and the branching storylines. He also confirmed you\u2019re still picking between \u201cstar\u201d or \u201cteam\u201d dialogue options to determine which type of teammate you want to be.\u00a0<br \/> \u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/preview\/2021\/09\/14\/answers-to-our-biggest-questions-nhl-22-questions\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Publisher: Electronic Arts Developer: EA Vancouver Release: October 15, 2021 Rating: Everyone 10+ Platform: PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X\/S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One In just about a month\u2019s time, hockey will be back in full force, both if you\u2019re watching the puck drop on your TV or strapping on the skates in NHL 22.
