It would add a little more realism.

Also, I hope that they actually make the temperature count more.

In scorching hot games, the fatigue levels should rise considerably faster because of the dehydration, forcing you to have to create a strategy for your usage of the players. Your not gonna have Randy Moss streaking down the sidelines once every series. And after a 30 yard run, you shouldn't see the running back for three-seven plays.
Players may be fit, but you'll see nearly every position switching because of fatigue besides the Qb and some Linemen (specifically o-line).

Also, in windy games, please have the wind effect the path of the ball. If the wind is blowing towards the Qb (a strong wind of course) and he tries to throw a fade route or a streak, that ball should be underthrown most of the time. This would also happen with other wind directions too.

Snowy games should definately take an effect on the ball. Slightly increased chance of fumbles. Passes slipping through the WR's hands, and many slips on both sides of the ball.

Anything to make the game feel as realistic as possible. Of course.

Lighting, broadcast cams, commentary packages, franchise tickers...

If the game plays like past maddens, just list 5 glitches to start.....seriously, who wouldnt want good gameplay before extra features? I would bet thinking of 5 things more important would be obvious to anyone over 12 years old......that being said lighting would be a great addition.

I don't really suspect that GAMEPLAY is something you make a patch for. I would imagine that gamplay is far more ingrained into the engine itself.

So, if I am right, got any REALISTIC things you'd rather have patched than the lighting? Things that they'd actually make a patch for?

The option that I would vote: "I really don't care one way or the other," isn't there. It's a nice touch, but not something that would really effect the game for me in any way. All or nothing polls, ie, "THIS IS A GAME KILLER" or "I DO NOT WANT THIS" fail.

Actually, the option "I really don't care one way or the other" IS there. It's just a little bit subtle.
