Why can you still walk through the wall?

This issue may have been addressed already but I'm curious why you can run right through the stands after you score a touch down. Anyone know why this happens in madden every year?

I do it every time I score a td lol. Its kind of funny because they have a touchdown celebration where the player throws the ball against the wall, but the player can walk through the wall? lol

I don't know if it will be fix for Madden 10.I don't remember,but a past madden was set up if you ran into the field goal post you would fall down.Ea could use that for the stands.

What else would your rather have the player do? run in place when the hit the wall? Have them fall down......I think for right now this is the least of a madden players worries.

It's to save space on the game for other information. To do this, it would require adding physical properties to the wall with animations if people hit them and stuff. That takes up precious disc space that could go to more important things.

Just for the record, this happens in APF2K8 as well.

You're not supposed to get over there, it's just to look at. So there's no reason to worry about adding physical properties to it. It's the same thing developers do for buildings in the background of an FPS that the players can't reach: If you get there, you'll be able to walk right through it.

To save space??, ah I doubt that has anything to do with it. EA probably just have it really low on there priority list.
