Raiders Infield Dirt

[BBallBryan23]

I'm assuming that the infield won't be at Oakland Coliseum through September like it should be? If not, this is an absolute joke. It's amazing how it used to be in other editions of the game several years ago, and then suddenly taken out and never to be seen again.

I really can't imagine that this can be that difficult. Just another example of how the attention to detail of these beautiful NFL stadiums are neglected by EA.

EA should take notes from how MLB The Show developers are hands-down kings of detailing their ballparks.

Re: Raiders Infield Dirt

I'd be nice to see these type of details make their way back into the game. I don't see it coming back anytime soon.....

Re: Raiders Infield Dirt

Its pretty sad when features in Tecmo Bowl aren't available today.

Re: Raiders Infield Dirt

I asked this same thing a couple years back, its funny how Madden really used to be a good with the small details. I'm not sure but I want to say the last time they had this feature in the game was before the exclusive license deal with the NFL, if so then I would say that has something to do with it.

Re: Raiders Infield Dirt

They still have the spectrum in the background in philly...which was demolished over 5 years ago
So I doubt you will get your dirt on the field


And the things we complain about is hilarious, "not having dirt on the field for a few weeks a year is an absolute joke"

I'm all for realism and I love all the small details but cmon man

I definitely understand where you're coming from, but it's just at some point people get frustrated with the time it takes to implement, or bring these details back. It's not like this type of stuff took a year or two off.

I think the game is alot better than it has been, but still, it's a little frustrating that these things haven't seen their way back.....

I understand the frustration. If it was something that had never been in, people likely wouldn't complain. But since it used to be there, it becomes something that people want/expect.

It's like the ivy growing in at Wrigley Field in The Show. Before it was put it, I never heard anyone talk about it. But now that it's in, and it was glitched a bit this year, people noticed and complained.

Haha no, just the NFL stadiums in general. Oakland's Coliseum is a dump. The infield dirt would give it a little much-needed character.

I get its a small detail but it's not hard to fix this, along with the Spectrum. MLB THE SHOW nails every small detail in their stadiums which gives each game played there a realistic and specific feel. Madden fails at this.

I don't quite agree with you. While I don't necessarily think it's overly "hard" I do think the fix takes time and resources that they may not be willing to sacrifice for whatever reason.

I do think the Spectrum issue should be an easy one to fix but we can't put the dirt in the same context and actually comparing it to the Show just proves that it isn't as easy as it may seem to us.

It took YEARS for the Show to finally re-introduce both versions of retractible roof stadiums and this is exactly the same thing.

They pretty much have to decide if the resources to create a second art rendering of the stadium which would be used at most for four games a season is worth.

Don't take it as me disagreeing with the want for it but I'm just trying to point out that it's not quite as simple as programming infield dirt into the stadium art for the first four weeks of the season.
