Any Ideas on Which Stadiums to Use?

[jinc1019]

Obviously it would be AMAZING if there were more generic stadiums in this game...and it would just blow my mind if they put a stadium editor in the game BUT since neither of those two things are an option....does anyone have an idea of which stadiums should be used for teambuilder teams? All of my teams are FCS teams so I don't want them to be to be bigger than being able to seat 50,000...and I also don't want them to have too many markings either from the real owner. Anyone have good suggestions here?

Air Force and Ohio are the only clean ones i've come across so far

Northern Illinois only has a logo on the water tower in the background

not any more. they've updated the stadium and now there's a huge building behind one of the endzones with the name of the building (which wouldn't be a problem by itself) and a huge NIU logo in the middle

I wanted an outdoor stadium for my updated Syracuse team. I still haven't settled on a good one yet, because there are just not enough stadiums without markings.

I like Washington's stadium, but the scoreboard is a giant purple and gold reminder that it is "HUSKY STADIUM"

I have considered Oklahoma State because the only real markings are small writing under the video boards, and the two GIGANTIC Oklahoma State text on the sideline walls.

I was using Air Force and Army, because both have minimal to no markings, but they are smaller, and I wanted something bigger.

Probably just end up using the Carrier Dome.

Could someone check out SJSU's stadium in game? It appears to have little signage.

Also Toledo's stadium has minimal signage based on 10

I replied to another guys thread on this same topic - Tulsa is another decent one w/o team-specific logos.

UNLV is usable, there's just a few glimpses of the Sam B Stadium on the scoreboard. Central Michigan has very little signage, the most obvious being their logo behind one of the endzones but it's mixed in with other ads.

Eastern Michigan has an E on the scoreboard and faint text along the top of the pressbox that says Eastern Michigan but it's rarely shown.

UAB is decent as well and Memphis worked in 10, haven't tested it in 11.

I went through this same dilemma and I finally settled on the generic Pro Stadium. Why? It's mine. No other team in the game uses it and that suits me just fine. It seats 50,000, which is maybe large for my MWC team right now... but in the future it will be perfect as I build my team up.

Oh... they're the Idaho State Cardinals. I googled Idaho and found the city that gets the most average snowfall per year... then I placed the Cards there!

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow...

SJSU's stadium has Spartan Stadium above the scoreboard and video screen and San Jose Spartans above another scoreboard. But the font and the distance away makes it hard to read; so it's very doable.

Are the stadiums for bowl games relatively blank slates?

Re: Any Ideas on Which Stadiums to Use?

I've resorted to using the high school field for a couple of my teams. Not what I want at all, but it'll do. I remember playing on the PS2 and having options for different generic stadiums, this is the next generation of systems and we are lacking basics from the old generation. Come on EA, you put all the time into this feature and short change the stadiums.

Yea, they didn't even need to design new stadiums; just remove the markings from some of the smaller ones and label them generic. Tulsa, Toledo, Utah State and New Mexico State have similar looking stadiums (horseshoe with a building), they could have easily stripped the signs and had four new generic stadiums.

I love to use the practice field for my Div 3 teams bc most of their stadiums only hold around 5000

Some are, but most have bowl signage. The problem with using a bowl game stadium with a teambuilder team is that you get a neutral crowd for your home games. Like if you're playing Nebraska half of the crowd will be wearing Nebraska stuff and the other half your stuff.
