I´ve only played one game so far, but your ai data looks really good so far.
here is my result (with me playing the Leafs):
TOR - CAR
Score: 4-2
Shots: 26-17
Faceoffs: 13-21

The game has a good speed, altough the cpu is a little bit faster, but i know this is necessary too make the CPU more dangerous.
The CPU plays aggressive defense, the goalies look good and i like the shots bouncig of the goalies in a realistic way...
I think it´s a bit too easy to deliever hip checks, maybe there is a way to change this...

I will play more games and then leave you more feedback...

I've played with this AI for a few days now and i LOVE it! CPU shot totals are a little low, but they play great D and the goalies are very realistic. the overall speed of the game feels right to me also.

Great job! I'll keep testing this out and if anything major comes up I'll let you know...

if I backup aidata.viv can I switch things back to the way they were if I'm not happy with this?

Yes you should be able to put it back.Good start on the AI a bit more shooting by the AI and more penalty imo and it´s even more awesome than it´s already is now

Tried it and its challenging. I startet a dynasty with the Coyotes and lost the first game 4:3 SO to St.Louis. But: They scored their 3 goals with a total of 11 shots. My shot-goal ratio was ok, better than before (which of course means more shots for a goal needed). Played next game vs. Boston and they scored 3 goals with their first 6 shots! So I think the players goalie needs a twitch, or, what would be even better, the CPU shooting accuracy should be reduced. CPU doesnt shoot enough. Mabye they dont need more shots when they score with 50% but I´d love to have the CPU to have 30+ shots and 3-4 goals. Dont know whether thats possible, but u said its beta-testing and I wanted to give you some feedback.
With best regards,

I played that game vs Boston again and ended up loosing 5:4 in the shootout with 24:25 shots. I dont know why, but thats exactly the opposed developing. First try: 6 shots 3 goals Boston. Secound try 24 shots 4 goals (which I think is okay for an EA-goalie). Now I have lost the first two games in the dynasty and I am happy about the challenge. Keeping up testing.
