Nhl 15 fights.

Why does the crowd stop cheering during fights? Is it a bug? Or dev flaw?

Dev flaw. They've always had poor crowd reactions to situational circumstances.

I'm really hoping this is fixed for full version but seriously EA has always been bad at crowd audio. NBA 2K is still amazing with that aspect, drowning out commentary when it gets loud.

I dont even notice it when I'm fighting. But I do notice that the crowd goes nuts when you win a fight at home.

Man, I thought they'd fix this for NHL 15. I guess I was wrong. It very much so breaks any kind of immersion for me after a fight.

great,They've always had poor crowd reactions to situational circumstances.

Now that's one good thing about being deaf. I don't have to worry about the sounds if they aren't right or messed up or whatever. I can just play the game and enjoy it lol. I don't pay attention to fans reactions during fight till after anyways so all good!

Ha. Well, that's the way to look on the bright side. I've always been disappointed with this because there's so much potential for fights in NHL games. It's the only sport that has them as part of the game and EA has seemed to always drop the ball. They were on the right track when they got rid of the first-person fighting but there's a lot of room for improvement.

The main thing that bothers me, besides the crowd going silent, is the fact that every fight seems to end in a knockout blow. I'd say about 80% of fights in the NHL end with one or two good shots but no real knockout blow. Most of the time the fight ends when a player is just pulled or falls, or even loses his balance. There needs to be A LOT of that.
