Forget the tuning for a minute EA and give me a patch.

Tuning Update unofficial notes for 2am PT, Oct 19 release.

All modes:
-Human puck carriers can be hit immediately when they acquire the puck now (there was a short period where they couldn't be hit previously). *
-Goalie more careful about dropping the puck from his glove to his stick when there is pressure. *
-Slap shot effectiveness with partial windup reduced.
-Hitting from behind and boarding called more strictly.
-Fewer elbowing penalties.
-Decrease CPU post-whistle penalties.

Offline only (V1.05):
-Goalies less aggressive going after loose pucks (same change that online modes got last tuning update).
-Goalies less aggressive passing the puck out

OTP/EASHL Only:
-Goalies now will not throw the puck out when in glove standing unless pass is called for.
-Increase the effect of shot accuracy attributes.
-Changed CPU base attributes to make them a bit better defensively and a bit weaker on offense.

* applies retroactively to all offline tuning sets (V1.00 - V1.05), these are considered bug fixes, not tuning.

I find myself enjoying this year's game more than any other. One thing that really stands out is the goal variety with the new physics engine. There really is a feeling of "anything can happen" with this year's game.

Gotta love the work the NHL team is doing this year:

Sept 28 (minor tuning) Deployed at 2am PDT / 5 am EDT on Sept 28th.

-Increase post-whistle penalties when the post-whistle rules are set to Authentic.
-Small increase in goalie acceleration (part way between previous tuner and original values).
-Increase CPU player fatigue when hustling to correspond with human players.
-Increase effect of the shot accuracy slider at the bottom end (offline games only).
-Stop CPU goalie from passing the puck out sometimes even when nobody was calling for it. (OTP/EASHL only).
-Reduce tendency for aggressive goalies to skate out to play the puck in dangerous situations (HUT and Versus only)

Any word on when a patch might be hitting?  The really need to hurry up so I can actually use a custom camera more than once.

Yes. I also thought I saw somewhere that using the hustle button tires out your players quicker.

It's the L3 button. I've tried pressing it and didn't noticed anything happening, so I stopped using it.
