Goofy is not the word for it. Disappointing is the word. I know it's probably not easy to remodel the stadiums from old gen to new, but at least old gen had the correct stadium model. I've included some pics to help you guys out.

Sebo Athletic Center





Older picture, but still could help you at least determine it's not a generic bowl




Hope this helps OMT. I appologize if these have been posted before.

Don't know if this was mentioned yet or not, but another commentary bug (maybe) regarding stadiums is at Stanford's "new" stadium, they still say it was the sight of Superbowl XIX.

Another minor commentary issue concerning a stadium - last night I played as Temple at the Linc in Philly and Nessler called it 'Lincoln Financial Stadium' instead of 'Lincoln Financial Field'.

Another thing about the Linc you may want to note for the future - you can see the Spectrum in the Western open corner, which is correct - that will be getting demolished after next hockey season (the AHL Phantoms play there among other things) for a hotel, retail space and other items. Obviously this effects Madden as well.

Even if my school weren't one of the neglected schools (which it is) the football fan in me would prefer you got the stadiums in the game before worrying about t-shirt colors or fan sections. And then, once you've managed the stadiums, rather than moving on to renovations, get the AA teams back in the game. Literally SHOCKED at this answer/excuse-making...

Wait for me to clarify before you start pegging me for making excuses.

We have a finite amount of time to spend on stadiums every year. We added several new stadiums, and updated several others for 09. The ones that aren't in didn't make the cut. That doesn't mean we are skipping them, we just did other ones first.

I think you missed the point. Adam was trying to give us a sense of just how incredibly labor intensive adding new stadiums is. I remember reading an interview a couple years back with one of the NCAA 07 developers. In it he stated that the NG stadiums have approximately 10 times as many polygons as the LG versions. I would be willing to bet that the amount of man hours necessary to address all of the update requests in this thread will be significantly less than the approx. 350 hrs required to create a single new stadium from scratch.

Thank you for posting that. I was shaking my head at that post when I replied, so I hadn't gone and dug up all the stuff we did do. You did it for me!

Also we did renovations to around 10 other stadiums, from bowling in Okahoma State's endzone, to adding large video boards to some schools that added them.

Are you going to have TCF Bank Stadium in the game next year, the new home of the Minnesota Golden Gophers?

The stadium is currently ahead of schedule and will surely be hosting the opener against Air Force in 2009.
