    Just curious because I have yet to see it on a clear day on a grass field, grass stains or what not

    Yeah I have not really seen it either. I have played all of my games as Arizona St. ( 4 home 4 away) and one of the home games was in heavy rain versus Michigan. The unis looked pretty clean to me. Now I am still only playing default five min quarters while in dynasty I play 8/9 minutes so there is less sample size but I have not seen a lot of uniform degradation on grass fields.

    Speaking of weather, has anyone played a game in the fog? Last night I played a fog game at Sun Devil Stadium. Using the coordinator cam the imagery is horrific. It's fine when you zoom in but awful from up high. I do however find the game looks phenomenal on clear sun y days and/or clear nights.

    * 8 minute quarters here. Seems fine to me, not overdone like some of the stuff we have seen with the next gen Madden game. I guess go into replay and zoom in on some butts.

    From what I have been able to see after playing 15 games, it has been fixed.

    Just played the Red River Shootout at the Cotton bowl in rain, Zoomed in on the butts and everything lol. Very Subtle.

    The length of the game play a part in this. If you are playing 5 minute quarters you will see far less uniform degregation than you would 8 minutes and of course 15 minutes. The fields themselves degrade pretty much the same on all quarter lenghts and rain does not seem to be a factor. I threw on the lab coat and did a super-sim test. Used Texas Tech at OU for three games. Sunny games of 5, 8 and 15 minutes. Stopped the game with a minute to go in each. There is a pretty big difference when you sim out the 15 minutes. It was noticeable from the gameplay view. The 5 and 8 minutes you can see a few stains from the gameplay view but replay is required to see most of the dirt and grass stains. Seems pretty normal to me. Fields are a lot better taken of these days. Even using your example of OU/Texas in the rain.

    2000 OU blowout was in the rain. Notice that none of the uniforms were that dirty.



    They did some things I do not recall were the same last year. If you play in light snow you will see more player footprints than you would in heavy snow. The catch is the field itself looks exactly the same for both. Weather is an area EA needs to work on (progressive buildup for snow especially).

    Quick question: did they add anything to the Flexbone playbook? In the E3 video it looked like Navy might have some Pistol.

    Thanks

    Yes. You can see it in the "all plays" video on the first page of this thread. If you watch it on YouTube, there are links in the description for each formation type. The formations you're looking for fall under pistol.

    Thanks. On my way

    EDIT: Just saw then video. Yes they added the Flexbone Pistol, limited to Slot and Trips set but I am okay with that.

    Great stuff. Thanks

    basically to get the look of it in game, you have to run the 34 solid. however, the 2 OLB's need to be replaced by DE's. the 3 down linemen are all DT's as well.

    nothing that a formation modifier cant fix....oh wait.

    Why in dynasty mode is the SEC playing 9 conference games. Florida's 2013 schedule in dynasty is completely screwed, no Miami, instead playing Auburn before FSU???

    But in the gimmicky season mode, it's 100% correct, with only 8 conference games???

    So please EA, why an incorrect 9 conference games in dynasty but a correct 8 in season mode. So you're aware, and it's still broken.

    Turns out I was wrong. Assisted tackles are being recorded. There are just very few of them.

    Well, after my first season with South Alabama, I was able to sign 22 prospects in recruiting. One 1 star, nineteen 3 stars, and two 4 stars. My two best players signed were a 78 overall JUCO athlete converted to QB and a 76 overall true freshman DE. I am playing on Heisman offense and defense as the OC, and was able to go 9-4 my first season with a bowl win. Currently, in year two, I'm undefeated with notable wins against #12 Georgia and MS. State. Also of note, my HC started out at a level six with minimal recruiting advancements in the recruiting skill tree.
