You're right, I can't seem to find anything saying it was actually fixed. Hopefully he just forgot to put it in the update of what is already fixed.

**Yawn** we waited this long for this list? The NHL team would have whipped this out in 2 weeks. Anyway lack of stadium specific sounds is most disappointing because as mentioned it was promised. BUT it is a patch and it will fix some issues making a pretty good game a little better.

That's because in the recent blog there is a link to the former blog.

When Ian did a FAQ video blog after the game came out, it was not promised for the patch.

He said they were "hoping" to get it in the second title update.

Go all the way to the end of the 1st FAQ video.

It's about 3/4 of the way down under the title Madden 10 FAQ.

Basically between the most recent blog and the one from a month ago it listed all the fixes that will be in this title update. There may be more than what these two blogs mentioned but not less. It's a very important update and most of the madden community will enjoy all the work EA put into this....atleast I have.

Wrong, stadium sounds were promised twice:

from the gamer's guide - August 13
http://maddennfl.easports.com/news.a...Id=gamersguide

o Specific presentation when statistical records are broken
o Re-designed ticker that also drives dynamic stats
8. Audio improvements -
o Brand new crowd audio system with new reaction logic as well as crowd swells during mid-play. Intelligent crowd sweeteners (individual people yells and sfx) along with team-specific chants.
o All new player chatter and QB cadences
o NOTE: Listen in surround sound to hear the full effect of what we've done to amp up the stadium atmosphere. The crowd surrounds you and the sounds of excited fans pop from all angles, leaving you with a very live stadium feel.

It was also in the gameshark developer Q&A:

http://www.gameshark.com/features/60...eloper-Q&A.htm


"To add to this, we have all kinds of stadium-specific chants in the game as well – so now you’ll hear the chants that make you feel like you really are in that hostile opposing environment – such as “J-E-T-S JETS JETS JETS!” and “E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!”

Then in the blog released after the 1st patch, they said what you mentioned.

These sounds were a big deal to me and are sorely missing from the game. They have been in every other Madden to date and add so much to the presentation.

I have been patiently waiting for them to be delivered in the 2nd patch, but I am disappointed again.

I don't know how much clearer to be on this.

This thread is discussing the 2nd title update. All I'm saying it was never promised/guaranteed regarding putting the sound effects in a title update.

I don't care outside the patch parameters. That's not what this thread is about.
