NCAA Football 13 Screenshot - Field Degradation

[sub9er]

the PSU vs LSU pics are by no means example pics just saying it was the last mud bowl I remember.

personally they show one pic, now id like to see serveral more pics. it be nice to see just how bad the uniforms can get. i want to know the when i hand off to my RB 35 times he will look like it at the end of the game.

Looks good. Hopefully it's in Madden as well. But I don't see any field degradation, only uniform degradation.

Personally, and I know people dont agree with me, I think that should be what the uniforms look like for non-inclement weather games

Rain games should cause uniform degradation like this





(Probably the best examples for colored and white uniforms)

Also, I dont know if already is, but how badly the uniforms degrade should also be based on the type of field the games are being played on.

Also, fields should degrade as the season progresses in dynasty modes. The above examples were played on grass. (Just a few examples that were, quick and easy to find). Those are probably be what we should see at worst realistically if EA ever implemented it correctly

I hope like hell we don't see crap like that in the game.

The type of field has always mattered as field turf doesn't show up nearly as much.

That's why Im saying at the worst. Say they implemented field degradation through a season in dynasty. Jerseys should look like that if it's halfway, or farther, through the year and the game is being played in a downpour

I edited the pictures out to keep the quote small.

One thing to keep in mind is that colleges and universities traditionally have better quality playing surfaces than high school programs. You won't see field turf degrade over time and you won't really see uniform degradation on field turf outside of some scuffing and obviously helmets getting dinged.

According to the FieldTurf website, over 100 colleges and universities at what was the D-1 level (FBS and FCS now) have field turf. There are 122 FCS schools, 123 FBS schools. Without doing the legwork, I'd imagine about 60-70% of FBS schools have some form of artificial surface. I'd be interested to see an official number. I know 4 of the 12 Big Ten schools have grass and 4 or 5 Big 12 schools have grass.

Either way, you really just don't see those Any Given Sunday, hurricane rains and wind, field torn to shreds, can't tell the difference between anyone type mud bowls all that often. And you know if it was put in the game, it would be entirely too often. Just like the stupid slip and fall in the rain animation they put in last year, it happens WAY too much and only to WR's and it's just dumb.

I'd like to see more light scuffs, helmet dings, paint scrapes and nothing too drastic that just destroys everything.

Why would it matter if it's halfway through the year? You can wash a jersey after every game.
