What the hell is everyone's problems with the jerseys, and stadiums?

DOES ANYONE HAVE AN IMAGINATION ANY MORE?!?

We already have tons of generic players, WHY THE HELL WOULD WE WANT GENERIC STADIUMS, AND JERSEY TOO???

Re: Uniwatch blog discusses APF

I agree with his assessment. I do think people don't know how to phrase their dislike of the uniforms, so they are falling back on "it looks like the XFL."

If the uniform customizations are as specific as many have said, all of this can be solved with a few brushes of the analog stick.

He did a pretty good job at explaining exactly what his problem with the jerseys was. Did you not read the blog post? Allow me to recap:

Quote:
• Unfortunate use of dark-on-dark pants and socks, creating the dreaded leotard effect. I like that little band of gray in between the blue and white portions of the sock, however.
This means he doesn't like dark pants and a dark stripe at the top of the socks. Makes the pants look longer. He did say that he liked the small band of gray in between the blue and white parts of the sock though. That is what we in the real world call a "compliment". Maybe some day you'll learn how to pick up on those.

Quote:
• Sadly accurate portrayal of modern truncated shoulder stripes (here’s another view).
He's actually bashing the way most NFL teams now truncate the shoulder stripes instead of having them actually go all the way around the arm. Again, this is a knock on real world jerseys and 2K's choice to portray that in this game.

Quote:
• Pretty surprising that they’d have a team called the Indians.
This had nothing to do with uniforms, only that he noticed the word "Indians" on one of the jerseys.

Quote:
• Can’t tell for sure, but it looks like the officials don’t have a league logo on their caps.
Again, nothing to do with the players' uniforms. He's simply making note that the refs have some sort of logo on their caps.

I really wish people would actually READ before they begin poo-poo'ing anyone who has an opinion different than their own.
