@patrickbellanca: @jpdavis1982 Of course! Nobody posted a screenshot at night yet?

Maybe they're saving it for the presentation stream? I heard they also redid snow games.

It's a shame, because the lighting at times is truly fantastic. They just don't implement it right. Watch a real early start time game (Cincinnati, Baltimore, NY, etc) ; shadows creep across the field, even in September. The way it was in 25, the progressive lighting was hardly showcased.

Lighting can give the game a great feel, and the pieces seem to be in place. They just don't seem to want to refine it.
If they can get the lighting in Madden (both day and night) to where MLB:TS has it for 14. DAMN, will it look pretty.

I hate playing now and every game is 75 degrees.
Even if they did keep it like this, at least make the temp 60 or 65. Make it seem like fall weather.

For example, during the pregame menu, let us choose for it to start drizzling during the second quarter, then raining throughout the 3rd, and letting up for the 4th. This could help the game really show its lighting dynamics.

It's just gotten too dull and unrealistic for it to constantly rain the same amount throughout the entire game, from the coin toss to the final whistle.

The PS4 version has a different look. It has the field covered in snow and daytime lighting on, but in cut scenes the snow is light and glitchy.

You're being sidetracked. I'm looking at the overall (snow in sunshine) which to me does look great and is an example of a setting that can't be selected in Madden despite it happening in the real world.

I didn't notice the footprints there, but that video is of last generation and doesn't matter now anyway. My original post was about the PS4 game as was my original point.

Nice. Would be good to have this setting in the overall game, but at this point I know better than to assume it will be.
