Start Times/Lighting in Franchise Mode

[Vanman2425]

One of the things that have bugged me the last few years in franchise mode is Madden's inability to understand the concept of time zones. For example, when you play a 4:15 EST game anywhere out west, the lighting is as if it's 4:15 local time. Has anyone seen if this has been fixed and will the lighting be more aligned to the actual local start time of 1:15?

This has bothered me for a while too. They need to adjust the lighting to reflect local time. I've played in way too many night games with my Niners.

I'd like to see seasons taken into account too.....

Me 3. I know it is a nit picking thing but it hurts the immersion when you have a prime time game in November east of the Mississippi and the sun is still setting to make it feel like a preseason game.

Yeah one of my wishlist posts made a point to mention that the lighting differences between a September game (during daylight savings time to boot) and a late-December game are (no pun intended) night and day. Would really like to see some attention paid to this. Any news here? Any upgrades at all to lighting/weather or just same ol'?

I think they have improved the lighting but don't think they improved it like people would want in this thread. Weather is still the same as last year.
