    I agree, I was very surprised they wouldn't use one of the current season ROMs as a base. To me it's also obvious they had to have used a 32-team ROM as a base to work off of, so why not use one that's already set up, and give you credit?

    The rom they use is 33 team, and the rink graphics are all vanilla, so I think they modified their own ROM.  No Winnipeg freeze issue either.  

    I'm trying to get answers for you guys!  Let's just say I'm plugged into the Empty Clip Studio guys with my questions, but they are just slammed right now.  Should they get the green light from EA to update, online play and other bugs are on the table.  It's just in EA's court now.

    I have a document of top player career 'series win : series loss' ratios for gdl+blitz+classic. I call this nhl 94 kill-death ratios

     

    My rankings are heavily based on those ratios + factoring in title wins

     

    I like this.  What I did was I took the series win against other "top" coaches that we are all listing here, for the most part, and put it into a matrix.  Read TOP DOWN is W-L.  So AJ is 1-2 vs Carse, for example, and 16-13 in this sample set.

     

     

     

    What stands out to me here is Plabax's win% against those top coaches, followed by Freydey and swos.  To me, this is a nice statistic that backs up TomKabs' rankings and is great to see.  

    IceStorm had the most series' played at 42, followed by me at 39 and Carse at 37 due to the many GDL/Blitz/Classic participation.  

    Shockingly, I have only played AJ in ONE online series (in these leagues) and lost.  It was our classic matchup of LA (AJ) and PIT (Raph) that went 7, I remember it well!  It feels like we played about 50, but I guess that's all from the live tournaments.  I also hate my goose eggs against swos, Freydey and Carse.  It was earlier in my '94 career, but damn!

  8. Who are the Top 10 NHL94 coaches of all time?

    I put those results up without a lot of analysis.  Was a fun research project to fill in some missing pieces from the older leagues since the sites aren't around.

    The section where Carse has consecutive Blitz, GDL and Classic titles really pops.  April 2010 to June of 2013 Carse was a champ, runner up, or losing to Freydey.  In hindsight, I may have to give him more credit.  His style was more direct, but clearly effective. 

    Not everyone played each league each season, obviously, but it's still fun to review.  Swos only played one season of Blitz and won, for example.

    Maybe I'll update the sheet later to give certain players colors, to make it easier to see how they popped up in the top 4 over the years.

  19. Perfect Game w/ Ottawa - Request for Help!!

    in NHL'94 Community

    Posted

    I tried a few attempts and my best effort was something like 26 goals before I gave up a goal.  And I wasn't close to the 100 goal pace.  

    I think similar to a record run WITH goalie, my main issues were everything AJ says above.  Scoring isn't a problem, it's the length of those CPU hot streaks or your brutal cold streaks.  You just need a special game to get the record.

    I don't even think it's possible with Ottawa.  I'd try a run with savestates if anything to see if it's feasible. 

  21. Perfect Game w/ Ottawa - Request for Help!!

    So I started to lay this idea out and I doubt I can accomplish this feat.  Ottawa does have 25 players, which means you need to accumulate 250 points out of 300 possible, or average 2.5 points per goal.  Scoring 100 goals alone is difficult enough, let alone making sure that on average every one of your goals has at least two assists tagged.  I think about all the wonky passing I'd have to do, followed by executing a goal every 36 seconds for 60 minutes, I don't think I can do this.  Also not letting one up!  

    Players: 25
    Points/Player: 10
    Total Points: 250
        
    Total Goals: 100
    Points/Goal: 2.5
    Total Points Avail: 300
    Excess Points: 50
        
    Total Minutes: 60
    Total Seconds: 3600
    Seconds/Goal: 36

    Goals/Period: 33-34

    I'll give it a shot to see how it goes, but this is a tall order!

  25. NHL 93 - Win Cup w/ ONLY Goalies Scoring

    in NHL'94 Community

    Posted

    @Champ Weit,  you should invest some time learning to play online, if you can.  I, and a lot of others, are always looking for guys who think they are the best to play.  You may very well be good, but it's usually a humbling experience playing against some of these top guys.  I think if you can keep within 5 goals vs me, @Uncle Seth, @angryjay93, or any top player, that is a much greater challenge than scoring 100 goals vs the CPU.  

    While I'm sure scoring with only goalies is a challenge, it doesn't sound particularly interesting or something I want to spend time on.  Especially '93, as the atrocious auto goalies make it quite a snoozefest.
