FSU is a lot lower than they used to be because we base our priority on how well a team does in real life, how many people use that team in the game, and how many copies of the game we sell in those markets.

The idea is to spend our money on stadiums that will be viewed by as many people as possible. There are 150+ stadiums in the game... there is no way we can do every update every year and still sell the game at its current price.

Being that Rutgers is pretty much the only Div-1A football school in the Metro NJ/NYC area and NYC makes up for a ton of your sales you'd figure the company would make a decent effort to get it right.

Let's just see if your team can figure out where the sun is supposed to rise and set in the stadiums. Last time I checked the sun doesn't rise from the west when I play in NJ.

With what Kragthrope is doing, our stadium won't be updated but once every 10 years.

LOL

Re: Stadium Updates

I searched for this but didn't see anything. So, sorry if it's already been mentioned.

Oklahoma State's stadium has it's orientation reversed. The sun should be setting behind the bowled in part of the stadium behind the west endzone. Instead, in NCAA 10, it's going down behind Gallagher-Iba Arena, which is in the east endzone.

Also, we now have 4 video screens in the stadium. I'll try to get you a picture.

Unless I am mistaken, this picture indicates what color the fans attending should wear depending on the section they are seating. All the pics I've seen of Bronco stadium has only single color seating.

You are correct. But he was talking about what color the fans wear.
