So, there is going to be a version 6.0, despite my honest intentions to give the project a rest. It's going to be an almost entirely invisible update, it's all about the gameplay. I've completely re-done the goaltending, and I'm very happy with how the goaltenders are playing now. I'm still adjusting the body checking and penalty rates. Been working on game pace. Further stamina depletion & recovery balancing. Play testing. Balancing. More play testing. More balancing. See you back here soon with a Beta to test. If you send me a PM, I will be sure to send you one back as soon as the Beta is ready, which should be any day now. Feedback is so helpful.
If you have any requests for v6.0 please let me know. I can't promise anything, but I've taken into consideration every piece of feedback I've gotten, and been able to make some solid improvements from it. Your feedback matters!
