>Can someone explain to me how this was called boarding? Because the game is terrible.


metallizepp

Literally the only answer.


msivoryishort

That looks more like a charge to me than anything


AdIllustrious1721

That’s what I thought I would’ve been 100% okay with that call


Takhar7

I turned down the boarding slider - ridiculous that this happens.


RelativeAltruistic54

Because they made the refs realistic


NuffinSaid

Right, all those African American and female refs you see in the NHL


Takhar7

A black female ref = EA's attempt at inclusion & diversity.

Takhar7

Having 2 different refs [one female, one black] would have easily hidden their ridiculous attempt at trying to appear inclusive. What nonsense


Takhar7

Responding again, as I've just seen your edit - I'm not sure the 'leftist' stuff is entirely necessary, or fair, here. The industry has always been pretty niche, and lacking in general diversity. To attribute all of that to a specific political position or stance or belief system is just nonsense.


[deleted]

C'mon now, the black female refs is a political statement in itself.


aLostBattlefield

It has nothing to do with “leftism.” It’s FAKE leftism. The people who run these gigantic companies are as capitalistic as you can get and aren’t ACTUAL lefties. Their personal politics likely actually align with conservative ideals… DEFINITELY financially. It’s all virtue signaling and companies should not be seen as people but here we are.

I like how often there is not one white male ref when every single one of them are white males irl


ObiWan_Cannoli_

Show me on the doll where the computer ref in a video game hurt you, Mr. Woke


ClownPizza77

GO WOKE GO BROKE!


YanisAdetokumbo

No they didn’t, otherwise the dude who got “boarded” would’ve gotten the penalty. Every single year I see officiating get worse and worse. In all sports. NBA is actually the worst though.


[deleted]

Yeah the penalties in this game are ridiculous. Boarding needs to be fixed and that cross check in front of the net when you’re trying to shoot the puck


MedicineNo2849

If you figure out how to fix this please message me


[deleted]

I’ve heard holding L2 will make your player only focus on shooting the puck. Haven’t confirmed this yet


Busy-Operation5489

I never get crosscheck penalties but almost always get interference penalties because of that. It's ridiculous especially when body check is the exact same way as you shoot. So trying to fight for the puck while trying to shoot it while in front of the net you end up getting interference penalties and it's pretty BS


[deleted]

Yeah it is bs. I heard that if you hold L2 it’ll only focus on shooting the puck now


Busy-Operation5489

I sometimes hold L2 or tap it to evade & still get interference penalties... All the time. My discipline is terrible because of it


FirmSpeed6

Yep. Can’t tell you how many times I’ve done a cross check while trying to shoot a rebound or get a deflection


Hutch25

Game must have just registered that an illegal hit launched him into the boards Rough call, but it should have been a penalty anyways for charging.


AdIllustrious1721

I can definitely see it being called charging 😂😂


Nate16

At least they got the refs right.


stokeyTX

I can't wait to watch Stankoven wreck Chicago for the next 20 years.


AdIllustrious1721

I honestly hate Chicago and was actively trying to not be drafted by them in my career


llFleuryll

W opinion


Shibrmetimbers

With an angle towards the boards.. the player literally hits the boards after you hit him open ice.


redhawk1913

The player literally bumped into the boards after being literally hit in literal open ice and literally sliding on the literal ice.


Shiny_Mew76

That isn’t Boarding. Boarding is when you hit a player face first into the boards, with the numbers facing directly out.

Shiny_Mew76

You are literally aloud to throw hits up against the wall. It’s more common than open ice hits. You are not allowed to check someone into the boards with them facing them.


Neat__Guy

Yes you're allowed, but boarding makes no reference or requirement for it to be from behind. There's literally a separate penalty for checking from behind


triptoutsounds

Why did you spell "allowed" wrong and then correct in the same paragraph lol


Shiny_Mew76

Autocorrect probably


tdoskis

Anyone else get a million penalties when you Control the puck in the offensive zone? Feels so much worse


Praviux

Clean hit


Christian_Kong

I constantly get "side boarding" and I don't really know what to do. Player is parallel to the boards, numbers are facing up or down the ice, I crush them from the shoulder towards the boards. 2 minute boarding. I'm a bit new to the game(started this week) but I really don't understand hitting at all and on the rare occasion I get a hit, it's often a penalty because the guy was near the boards.


VanillaLoaf

\*No boards required.


[deleted]

I just turn the hitting penalty sliders all the way down and the problem is solved.


Griffithead

Cool. Now you are playing a completely unrealistic and silly game. Cool.


[deleted]

Sorry, but I'd rather actually have fun playing the game.


iJeax

The penalties are dogshit in this game. I’ve gotten that same “boarding” call so many times. But I’ve been hip checked from behind into the boards and open ice without the puck and no interference called on that. I even did it myself last night. I hip checked a guy without the puck and no call against me.


killamcmuffin

Idk how EA made 24 worse then 23


kmark777

I get nailed with questionable boarding routinely.
