Seriously though. There are a few stadiums that have had an incorrect orientation in the game, causing evening to look like morning. One example off the top of my head is Nationals Park. In the game, the sun also sets to the east. It might seem like a small thing but it really does change the way the stadium looks compared to real life. A 7 PM game feels like 10 AM. I was wondering if these things would be addressed this year. Hopefully, that shot of Wrigley in the trailer is just an illustration (perhaps an early morning game? I know those are in this year...i.e., Patriots day for the Red Sox). The lighting does look absolutely stunning. Let's just hope the ballpark orientations are accurate.

I totally get what you are saying. I would think since they are introducing these seasonal shadows, orientation errors would be caught if they are using reference photos.

Not to mention these trailers and streams are still WIP. They have some time to correct the orientations before launch.

Speaking of these trailers and streams being WIP right now, knowing optimization is the last thing to be done once the game is finished, I'm suspecting the game will look even better than what this Summer trailer is showing. SO PSYCHED

This is important and probably deserves its own thread so the devs are sure to see it. Detailed sun and shadows would be comical if the Sun is going the wrong way.

And, yes, I know the Earth goes around the Sun...

I'm pretty sure that was a scene set up using the time of day widget.

Regardless of lighting accuracy those images are stunning visually Wrigley really looks alive and they got alot of the changes in ! very impressive for a early build .
