THE DRILL: The intensity explodes off the ice with The Drill -- one net, one goalie, and every man for himself. Up to four can play and the one who scores the most goals wins.

Thats not the special feature. We've known about that for some time.

The special feature is a gameplay feature i believe

Doesnt sound like the new secret feature. The secret feature will be an on ice gamepy feature not a new mode from what i heard.

Hidden Mysteries
To tantalize us just a bit more, EA has more than hinted that there is a brand new gameplay feature that will be unveiled sometime after E3. What is this feature? All we know is that it is an on ice gameplay feature that is important in real life hockey. Your guess is as good as (or better than) ours.

coach mode? either that or its counters, something me and a friend were discussing on how to make head to head play better.. kinda like a fighting game, if someone tries to hook you, you can press the counter button at the right timing to shove it away, or if someone tries to check you, countering it will make you move outta the way and the guy will hit the boards.. if the opponent passed the puck to another player and it goes right by you, press the counter button and youll grab the puck and be open to spring out on a

... etc... but thats just silly talk because i doubt they can make anything that dramatic without totally spilling the beans

The new feature is a gameplay feature, and it's new and havnt been in any other game.

**lpearl** · 06-24-2004, 07:20 PM

Goalie POV camera + playability maybe? That would be cool

bcrt2000 · 06-24-2004, 10:07 PM

maybe you can play as all of the classic teams since the original six or something (ie ALL teams in the league for every year) or it might be the heritage classic

It would be kind of cool if you could go into season mode using just the original six. But that's hardly the feature though, as it's supposed to be gameplay feature that is something that happens often in hockey and isn't in any other game. Beats me what it could be, but I'm thinking it actually isn't that big and is more of a gimmicky thing to create interest.

I know! I know! It will be a feature that allows you to "charge up" your defender so he can throw BONE CRUSHING hits!!!!!
