CAGLeagueSports

CAGiversary!
b3jRDX3.jpg

Club History

It's that time again. Adorned in majestic custom uniforms of soft shit brown and glistening neon, the Banditos rise from their dutch ovens. What's better than an erection? A res-erection.

9 years! We are about to embark on CAG Hockey's 9th year of existence! That's amazing...without question the longest running gaming group on CAG. At some point, I think we need to start a Hall of Fame Shame.

Naturally, we have a set group of people who have played together for a long time, but if you want to play with us, seriously, just sign on and play with us. As long as you're not some tard who pisses everybody off, you'll be fine. Basically, just don't play like the AI.

Ha...haha...webpage. Yeah, believe it or not, this game used to actually have features.

***IMPORTANT***
One thing that we strongly recommend is that you do not use the "Be a Pro" or "Action" camera types. While these angles can be exciting for single player modes, they do a poor job of showing you the ice and which teammates may be open (especially players behind you). Since we strive to play strong team hockey and get everyone involved, it makes sense to be able to see the entire zone as you play. The CAG team advises that you use the "Ice", "Classic", or even "Overhead" cameras.

When We Play
Our official CAG Hockey Nights have fluctuated a bit the past couple years, but you can almost always find us on Friday nights (occasionally Saturday too). We usually start around 10 PM EST and end in the wee hours of the morning. These hockey nights can be filled with ranked games against other EASHL clubs, team practices to improve on basic skills and fundamentals, or even intrasquad games to compete against each other. There are also other random times throughout the week that we play, but Friday night is when you'll always find the team. If you'd like to play, please feel free to join us! If you'd like your information posted on the team roster, please see the "How to Sign Up" section below. See you on the ice!

How To Sign Up
Keep in mind, we have official weekly Hockey Nights on Fridays from 10PM EST - UNTIL (usually 1-2AM EST), and do play other random times as well. The more time you put into the team, the better we'll be and the more you'll get out of it.

If you're interested in taking part in these fun and awesome community gatherings, just find the team in the game (search..."Ausfahrt"), and send a join request. And be sure to post in the thread and include the following information:

A Little Sweet, A Little Shitty: EA NHL
[youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnVLe7RKlYg[/youtube]

Club History
I mean, really. I think we're a common law gay marriage at this point (let that blow your mind, Kim Davis). The CAG Hockey team is about to start its 8th year of play together! 8 YEARS!

Naturally, we have a set group of people who have played together for a long time, but we always welcome people who are dedicated to the game and want to learn how to play right. The truth is, we don't always have 5 people online. So, there is often at least one spot open for people who want to play within a team unit. And with as pathetic as the AI can often play, we would definitely welcome people who want to play the game the right way.

Webpage
I'd say "Coming Soon", but who knows if EA even does these anymore.

The jokes just keep rolling and we keep rolling with them. Do you love the classic hockey movie The Mighty Ducks Sudden Death? Do you love vegetables tacos? If you answered yes to both of those questions, then this team is for you!

Club History
With an amazing streak unrivaled by any sports game community on CAG, this will be the team's 7TH YEAR of play! Yes, we pretty much have a set group of people who have been playing together for years, but as always, we welcome people who are dedicated to the game and want to learn how to play right. The truth is, we don't always have 5 people online. So, there is often at least one spot open for people who want to play within a team unit.

Club History
Continuing our tradition of coming up with an "oh so clever" moniker for each year, we decided to call ourselves the Canaderps this year. This may give the appearance that we hate Canadians...and that's just entirely not true. We hate Canadians who beat us, lol.

Honestly, we just thought it was a funny expression, and we didn't get as much hate mail this past year, so we thought we could improve on that. This will be the team's 5TH YEAR of play! And as always, we welcome people who are dedicated to the game and want to learn how to play right. You too can be a Canaderp! Keep reading!

Warning: Video contains coarse language...thanks to some of the "fanmail" we received from our opponents.

Club History
Building off of more than one year of continuous play, and three years overall, the CAG hockey team has high hopes for its 4th season. After winning its first two championships (back to back) in club history this past season, and placing in the game's highest division multiple times, the team is primed for a dominant run this coming year. Our final record saw us place over 100 games over .500 and we finally pushed our goals for average higher than our goals against average. Yes, we take the game seriously. Why? Because getting your ass kicked just isn't very fun. If you disagree, you're welcome to challenge us at any time.

That's right, folks! It's that time again! Welcome to the official thread for your CheapyD All Stars!

Club History
This will be the team's 3rd season of play, starting with a rollercoaster season in 2008-2009, a rocky start to the 2009-2010 season, but a very strong finish down the stretch that saw the team learn to work together and even eclipse the .500 mark. Looking to continue their progression toward greatness, the 2010-2011 CAG team is sure to be a powerhouse, hopefully having raised some banners by the time the season's over!

*End of Season Note: Mission accomplished!

Custom Soundpack
As you may or may not know, NHL 12 allows people to set their own custom playlists for in game events (team intros, goals, penalties, etc.). The great thing about this is you can stream the music from your computer and have the playlists pre-set. All you have to do is assign them to the specific events in game. You can find the pack here, along with full instructions on how to install it.

Soundpack?!
Copy/paste from the old threads. If EA can do it with their games, I think I can do it with the thread.

Also serves as a reminder of how awesome NHL 12 was. Custom soundtracks, online leagues, club websites. Amazing what EA could do when they actually tried.

I'll hopefully be able to get in a couple games tonight. I think I have about 6 hours left.

Played some HUT and Draft Champions so far. Even received some hate mail.
 
Probably not. I'm liking Be a Pro with the cut scenes actually. First goal is awesome to watch and warm ups.

Also liking how hard it is against the AI on Pro difficulty. Pro difficult on 16 was a joke. this is finally challenging. lol

Also, http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/list/10356843.page?sf48667017=1#35169115
It's challenging for sure. Just not sure how well balanced it is. CPU passing is still insane. Nobody completes 85%+ of their passes...and doing it on the second lowest difficulty is on the mildly retarded side. It also makes me wonder if EA just has the AI tweaked for each mode (ie. in EASHL they're always incompetent).

Because they were all over me in Play Now mode, but in Draft Champions, they'd back off, give me room to skate, and allow me to douche freely. Not sure if that's by design, or just EA trying to make the new modes seem more appealing.

At any rate, hopping on now for pre-hockey.

 
You are wrong ghost of Gene Wilder. Just checked my tracking for NHL, and it arrived at the Nashville post office at 11AM this morning. Pretty decent chance I'll have it tomorrow. No idea why I get this treatment from Best Buy, but I'll take it. :)

Oh, and just for record keeping purposes, mine shipped from Shepherdsville, KY...which is about 150 miles from me.

HighLowlights from last night. Gary will have to share the "row, row, row your boat" one. But this is what I captured. One of them is MVP's ridiculous hit...which while awesome, still seems a bit off. The others are straight "What the fuck is this shit???" moments though.

Just popped the game in and it gave me that "Thank you for purchasing the digital version of NHL 17. Please continue to HUT to retrieve your rewards for playing NHL 16" message.

I remember it doing that last year too because of the EA Access trial. So, I loaded up HUT, and I now have 13 unopened packs. Not sure if some of these are pre-order packs or what...but I have 3 regular gold packs (10 cards) and 10 gold plus packs (20 cards). I'm really considering just not opening any of them until November. That would have to give me a pretty solid shot at getting some Movember cards.

EDIT - Actually, I'm looking, and Best Buy said the pre-order bonus stuff would come through email (I don't think I've gotten that though). So, maybe I did legitimately get packs for games played/collections completed. That would be nice. Has anybody gotten their pre-order bonus email from Best Buy?

Mine was showing as emailed so I contacted them on the forums and they resent it. Unfortunately, my game is still showing preparing to ship.

Ah, ok. Yeah, mine shows as sent too and I was thinking "How did I miss it?" Guess I'll have to get them to resend it too.

It's so weird that yours hasn't shipped yet. It's not like I'm even an Elite or Elite Platinum or whatever the hell they call it member at Best Buy. I have Gamer's Club Unlocked...but that's it.

 
I gotta say, I played a game in Draft Champions that years past I would have lost. Fell behind 5-1, scored 4 goals in the third (and none on the douche shot either, which oddly I could not connect on, missing the net multiple times with Hull and Ovechkin before his game misconduct). Scored the winner in OT for a sweet comeback. In years past that would be a game I'd lose in some ridiculous way, but it felt different this time.

 
I know yall hate bought teams but, I buy coins every year now. Going rate is now $5 for 100k for 17. I made a good amount off the 1 Mill I got from one pack from that Crosby pull. I have 600k left in 16 and I might rebuild my team for cheap honestly. If you have the money, I don't see the problem.
 
For me, I don't mind them when the game is out, I just like the heckling aspect, but in this particular case, its because the game isnt even really out yet.

 
Buying this mostly for the ECHL. I grew up watching hockey from the local team here and to this day thanks to them I'm more interested in the minors than NHL. I do have an NHL team I somewhat follow but the NHL is a damn shadow of what it used to be as far as regulations go. The league has changed dramatically over the generations of course but I followed it in the 90s and even with that small of a gap it's amazing how much has been altered. Most of it, not for the better either.

I guess for me it just becomes a question of what are you playing HUT for? If you're playing it to be competitive and play online (which I know you don't...but many do), buying your team kind of gives you an unfair shortcut.

If you're playing just to build a fun team to play with casually, I guess buying packs isn't a huge deal...you just get to the endgame quicker.

If you're playing to just collect cards and open packs, well then buying them probably would give you the most enjoyment since you'd get them quicker and have more that way. The biggest danger here is the mobile game trap that South Park made fun of. It probably becomes really easy to lose track of how much money you've spent and you wind up giving EA $1000+ to play NHL 17...which just tells EA to "keep up the great work".

That said, if you're buying your coins through gray markets (which $5 for 100k sounds like), you're not giving EA the full benefit. I don't know how people don't get caught doing that though.

My Best Buy video game preorders usually don't ship until the day before release.
 
Because EA just does not give a shit about the Grey market apparently for some odd reason. Tons of people sell and buy coins and they just don't care.
 
I personally hate bought teams for a few reasons.

1) To me part of the fun is working your way up to a star team. Buying it removes a great deal of fun for me.

2) If the game is only mediocre at best... Why would I give EA more money.

On the contrary, this year I feel like the gameplay benefits the smart player than the guy who buys his team much more.

It is also rewarding to smoke a bought team, get the hate mail, and troll them.

Part of the reason I named my team BuiltNotBought this year. Haha


Lastly, the coin buying made me curious. Where are you getting $5/100k all the sites that came up in my search were $20+ for that many.
 
Yeah, I definitely can't find them for that cheap. That cdbdjl guy (one of the big sellers) had them at $37.50 for 100k yesterday.

https://www.reddit.com/r/NHLHUT/comments/527rf6/xbox_one_daily_trades_sales_thread_september_11/

And that turned into a discussion of prices being the highest when the game is new (duh) and slowly dropping before finally hitting their low point after the season is over (again, duh).

I tried searching pretty good, and these are the only other discussions I could find that address coin prices throughout the course of the year.

https://www.reddit.com/r/NHLHUT/comments/3vq1um/hey_guys_where_can_i_buy_nhl_hut_coins_not_on/

What I did see though is that apparently Amazon is selling that new currency (points or whatever) at a discount:

https://www.amazon.com/NHL-17-Ultimate-Points-Digital/dp/B01L9R7GR2

 
Yeah, CDB always sells high. I know few sellers that posts got taken down because they were so low like 5 for 100k, 10 for 100k. The CDB guy is really good friends with the mods of that sub, so it's a shit show when people lower prices.

Ah, I see. You get them dick sucking prices. ;)

 
Yeah, that's actually a solid deal. It's regularly $19.99. With EA Access, it's $17.99 in game. No idea why Amazon is selling it for that cheap.

 
Thats really weird how it's that specific quantity thats such a good deal. For example, 13.99 for 2200, times three, is 41.97 for 6600 points. They sell 5850 for 49.99. I wonder if it's a pricing error? THe Points per dollar on that specific one is  waaaaaay better than all the other options.

Yeah, I bought one just for the hell of it. The Gold Jumbo packs are 300 points. So, that gives you 7 Gold Jumbo packs (140 cards, 14 rares) for $14. I opened one pack, but I'm really considering just saving everything else for November.

I did snag a Kris Letang from the Draft Champions reward though. I tried again and got crap the second time, sadly.
 
So, I bought a card as well for that price and bought all Gold Jumbos. Spent another $20 on coins and Now in sitting at 200k. All in all, I have 30 unopened packs and I also got the Super Deluxe Edition when they messed up the price on it, so that should guarantee even more packs as well. I think I'll open maybe 10 packs and save the rest. I do have Kucherov and a Forsberg I might throw on the market to see what they go for.
 
Is it not possible to see the last sold price of a player anymore? I know that didn't always work last year, but it's tough just looking at the market for a player, seeing no bids, and wondering if every single auction is overpriced. The lowest "buy now" on Letang right now is 75,000 and the lowest starting price is 65,000.

I figure I'll unload him and start working on collections (I might do sets after collections since you have to forfeit the players when you do a set). I'm not really sure what the cheapest ones will be, but it probably won't be a whole lot different from last year (though maybe not Florida). I'd imagine Carolina is a good starting point.

 
Just played my first HUT online seasons game...matched up against, Chicago, of course. He had a few decent players on his team Pacioretty, Gaborik, Kronwall, Marleau...against basically my starter team (nobody above an 85...and the wizard, Eddie Lack in net).

Guy took a 1-0 lead on a basic slapper. I came back and scored 2 quick ones. He tied it up on a short handed rush where I was backchecking and cutting off his angle so he couldn't deke across the goalie. Of course, Lack jumps off the post for no reason and lets him put it in shortside on his backhand.  :wall:

After that, I proceeded to beat the fuck out of him and after I went up 7-2 in the 3rd, he put his controller down. He was outshooting me 33-21 at that point, but I had more time on attack. Dude was just throwing everything at the net and trucking my goalie to knock the puck loose. I put one more on him for good measure for the 8-2 win, haha.

I don't know if goalie ability is dictated by the division you're in, but it felt like beginner difficulty with the way they were giving up openings. He had Matt Jones as his goalie, and Jones was biting on everything. I even hit the post 5 times and had another goal waved off for goalie interference when his defenseman pushed me into the goalie.

The only way I know of is when looking at the auction house. Select offer trade and it will say the last sold price.

Is there any rewards for completing collections?

Oh, ok. That seems like a backward way of doing it. Go figure. Either way, I sold my Letang for 75K, so not bad for a Draft Champions reward pull.

Actually, I was just looking for collection rewards and there might not be (the game makes no mention of it anyway). I just kind of assumed there would still be pack rewards because if there's not...the only way to get packs is by buying them (ugh) and what is the purpose of the "My Collection" section?

Ironically enough, I did notice the game finally allows you to have more than one of the same card in your collection. I have two Belarus logos and instead of keeping one in my inbox like in previous years, they both show in my collection and it has a little card logo with a 2 in the corner.
