Who want to be able to set weather for franchise games?

How sweet would this be?

I really hope they give this to us this year. FIFA offers it and I really love to be able to paint my own pictures for matches and the weather.

If I want it to be cold and overcast for a Green Bay v. Chicago game in November I should be able to get that. If I want to play a December game in Miami without there being a 90% chance of a thunderstorm I should be able to make that happen too.

And if people want to cheese and play every single one of their games in 72 and sunny, so be it. It's their franchise.

Who's with me?

I disagree, it seperates the idea of a 'Sim Franchise' if the weather can be controlled. I think the weather generator is fine as it.

I agree with you.. I should have full control over my franchise.. It should be an option to have the weather random or let me choose whatever weather I want..

I started a poll about this a few months back and I think 80% or so said they would want the option to set their own weather.

70 and fair all 16 games, regardless of locale, is fine as it is? (With occasional rain in Texas Stadium!?) Ohhkay.....


I agree with the OP-----lemme watch a live game, then be able to recreate that same weather in a franchise game.

I can control the weather now, by building a domed stadium. That's as close as I care to get. Franchises should exist in a bubble, creating scenarios should be a separate mode.

I think 80% speaks for itself. The rest of you are too hardcore for your own good. haha

Reading the poll though, it sounds like many said yes in the absence of a random or 'getting local weather right' option.

That and only 58 people voted.
