Obviously both NT & FAU... I can't seem to find anything on the internet, but the EA of the past has failed to deliver on stadiums being constructed, renovated or finishing construction, so my guess is NO.... which means NO point in buying it!


GO OWLS!

It takes years for them to update their stadiums. NCAA11 still has FIU playing with the track around the field. That's been gone for more than 3 years.

It took them forever to put Veterans Memorial Stadium in there. I think they finally did in like 08 or 09. We had some weird bowl looking stadium.

I hated when they took away the option to build your own team. Now you have to go online or something....hell, I just want to sit there by my lonesome with a team I started from scratch as a cupcake and see how long it takes me as an independent to win the national championship.

Don't get me wrong, it is fun playing us but while you can make your team into a championship contender, then rest of the conference just stays the same. No one else really improves their recruiting so you are stuck with the same level conference which hurts you. Join the SEC and then see how many 5* recruits are beating down your door no matter how sucky you are.....dang it EA sports, fix that!!

i definately miss that feature... one that i wish they had was a finance feature where if ur team has a # of winning seasons in a row u can upgrade ur stadium... start lowly stadium and then build it into something great

Official via the teambuilder site that the new UNT and FAU stadiums are not in the game. :(

"If it's in the game, it's errrrr, uhhhhh, nevermind. . ."

maybe I'm missing something, but it seems EA Sports would have a tough time incorporating the new stadiums when the game's about to be released and FAU's stadium isn't even finished yet, and North Texas is just now putting the final bow on their stadium.

well since it is a game, one would think they could work off renderings, obviously this isn't the case. I think with new stadiums it would be nice to see them in the game now, but realistically it won't happen and being that FAU nor NT is a major BCS team, they might not even be in the game next year... we'll see!

NCAA to put in the game must attend the stadium i beleive...they dont work off renderings

The first year that NCAA came out on the current gen of systems(360 and PS3) they changed how they did the stadiums. They started using a much more advanced system of creating the stadiums, which I believe includes satellite imaging and they're supposed to be accurate down to the square inch or something like that.

The problem is, this process takes much longer. I read the exact numbers, but can't remember but it seems like it took them almost as long to do one stadium as it did to do them all the old way. IIRC the first year, only like 50 schools had their stadium in the game, the second year it was over 100, but still there were some missing, finally the third year all schools had the correct stadium.

Considering the level of detail they put into each stadium, I strongly doubt they'll have either new stadium this year, as neither were anywhere near ready by the time they would have needed to have them completed to release the game in July. I would imagine they'll just still have Fouts and Lockhart, or possibly that old generic stadium they used for stadiums they hadn't done yet, but I'd imagine both new stadiums will be in place next year.
