      Wow, that's some serious updates to WSU's stadium. Great to see!

      Hopefully you guys can get back to being a team to be reckoned with in the Pac whatever.

      Just let me know when the screenshots go out next week if we missed anything or if there is stuff not in the screenshots that have changed.
      Darn, I was hoping this was the year those hotdog stands were going to be up to date

      Will do, thanks for adding renovations to it this year.

      X2!

      The big thing about the bathrooms and concessions are that they are built-in brick buildings on the concourse above the endzone seating now, so on the field they are brick structures on the way out of the stadium, or to the new entrance. So they do matter from an artist standpoint as they are in plain view if looking to the west endzone (but just the brick part, as the bathrooms are entered from the opposite side now). But I see you took care of that part of it, so props. I was honestly stuck wondering if it would take phase III to get an in game update out of martin. And probably without forums and our mediums of info outside of the school loop, it wouldn't have happened. If that video board is updated, and I know it is , I will be phased out come game time. Bring on the Huskies!

      Well Adam I just want to thank you and then entire team for a job well done. you guys put a lot of heart and hard work into these additions and blogs and I think ya'll are doing a magnificent job. Keep up the good work!

      Wow 500 hours on 1 stadium? That seems like a lot of work lol. I guess it's a good thing you have a team haha.

      500 hours on a stadium seems crazy. I love how Adam breaks stuff down in terms of numbers like this. Adam, does your team know how many hours it would take to add in-game saves? Given the fact that both baseball games have it, I'd like to think it's not a huge endeavor.

      Adam,

      I wanna echo what everyone else has said. I told Ben this year that you guys did a great job this year and not let message boards discourage you guys. It seems to me that some people are overly harsh, nit-picking at every little detail. Nothing wrong with wanting a better product but sheesh. Sometimes the "criticism" is just TOO much.

      While some people are discussing stadiums, I'm gonna assume the "I can't use a bowl stadium as my TB team's home stadium because the crowd is split 50/50" issue is still present so I wanna ask for is a generic dome stadium to be added for 2012.

      OK, back on topic (pics of the top 25) - The pictures do look really good. The videos on the Dynasty page are a lot clearer this year too.

      The visual improvements are very nice.... Also looks like to me that the crowd looks more crisp and sharp than it did on the demo, but could be my eyes also....

      Nope it's not just your eyes. Definitely the re-proportioning of the stadiums has made the fans look better. Also I think there was some extra neutral coloring sprinkled throughout the stadiums, so as not to make a solid block of same colored fans. It's nicely done I think.

      Going back to the pics. I love the new lighting more and more. I see lighter lights, and darker darks. As soon as degradation is added to both field and jersey/pants, it will look really incredible. As it is it is just mesmerizing to look at the stills. I noticed when looking on some OD recaps that all of the small link tabs to the pictures are tough to distinguish between real game and in game. It's simply awesome.

      Do we have any confirmation of degradation?

      I haven't seen any confirmation yet. If you look at the fields, the grass fields and the synth fields can be differentiated by the look between the hash marks, because there is a 'dirt' look to the grass field. But so far, absolutely no degradation to speak of. I can't get over how much I love the pics. And for the most part, I can't think of too many teams that shouldn't be in that top 25 right now.
