Rain, rain, rain, rain, rain, rain!!!

It is raining in 90% of my games in my offline dynasty. Is there a way to turn the weather off?

Just restart until you get the desired result. That's the only "solution" I can think of.

Yeah, I miss the days (or was this in Madden?) when you could change the weather before starting the game. I am OC at Oregon State and I believe I'm in danger of Seasonal Affective Disorder with all of the rain.

Well, if you're playing with the Weather Channel live feed, it takes the R/L weather for the place you're playing in, so I'm guessing that it's raining in real life wherever you're playing. If of course I understand the feature correctly.

If that's the case, somebody better be building an ark in Auburn, AL.

our online dynasty is in week 4 and we just had our 1st rain game, Baylor at ULaMon. everyone else has been able to avoid bad weather to this point.

I keep reading that quite a bit of ppl are suffering from multiple rain games in every season.

I'm pretty sure that live feed is only for exhibition and maybe online games. It would be kind of weird for the game to use weather in July or August to simulate the conditions of a game in late November.

HaHa, yeah you know I've only played exhibition games thus far, still brushing up on my skills before I begin my dynasty

Same here. In both dynasty I played so far, first game was rain and after a freeze and restart, it was sunny. Like someone said, the only way to change the weather is to start the game again.

I thought you were playing with a Florida school, I swear it rains every home game in my FAU dynasty. It doesn't rain everyday in Florida.

I lived in Miami quite a while ago, which is only 45 minutes from Fort Lauderdale {FAU} and every morning it would rain from around 7:50 am to 8:00 am... then... it would just be hot.

So having it rain for every FAU game is definitely not right. I'm playing as Kansas and have had multiple rain games, yet right now, we're in the midst of one of the worst droughts in history!!! If only EA could somehow make it rain for the farmers...

Re: Rain, rain, rain, rain, rain, rain!!!

Man I miss the old versions where The Weather Channel weather would show up on dynasty games as well. From what I remember it was an average in the specific region based on historical weather patterns.

It just felt more immersive to have the weather listed on screen at the beginning of the game in dynasty as well as the R/T weather in exhibition.

Sorry for the thread jack.

This doesn't surprise me in the slightest. EA isn't the kind of company that fixing a problem until it has been a problem for many years. If it don't cause a huge problem don't change it. That's how it seems to me.

What?? Where's the problem? I've had 1 rain game in 2 years of dynasty. In previous years, I rarely had rain games.
