Snow

After 4 months of playing, over 100 franchise games played, over 10 seasons in Madden 16 AND TODAY.. YES TODAY...

I have finally seen snow in a game!

Re: Snow

Never seen one in my CFM as the Patriots except one time in a playoff game in in NY. This is after 5 seasons with them, and through 6 seasons in my LA Rams franchise I've not seen one. In both franchises (11 years collectively) cold city late season games seemingly NEVER occur in a snow game.

*shrugs*

It's really out-standing that The Madden Dev team has never had weather functioning properly in CFM. I'm actually impressed something as simple as random weather escapes their programming ability. Surely this feat is possible since other sports game have accomplished it... but it eludes EA. For years it bothered me. But now I just accept it, and it impresses me. It really does.

Re: Snow

They should just give you the option to pick the weather in CFM like MLB The Show does.

I'd love the option to choose time of day and weather until/unless Madden can make every lighting and weather scenario look good.

I did see snow in a KC franchise during the Divisional round @ KC. It was cool.

Re: Snow

I really thought we were entering look out your window kind of in franchise weather adjustments, or just you know the basic hey how would you like to play your game today kind of options.
The cold weather looks good, first thing I wanted to do was play madden watching the Vikings game.

Re: Snow

Besides choosing the weather I wouldn't mind them borrowing the whole season thing from FIFA.

In FIFA's career mode once you hit certain months the "season" switches and locks in summer, fall, winter, or spring. Not only does the season affect the type of weather, lighting conditions, and probability of certain weather types in a game, it also ensures that fans in the crowd, media people, security, etc, are wearing season appropriate clothing.

It's not exactly nuanced, but at least, once it hits December 1st in FIFA career mode, everyone in the crowd is going to be wearing winter gear whether its just overcast, sunny and cold, or snowing.
