Anyone check if the weather feed works online this year or are we playing sunny and warm games all year again?

why do you say again?

real time weather worked fine last year.

There was a work around to get it, it just didn't happen online.

All you had to do was hit play now and when you got to the team select screen you backed out and then went online to play. That is how we had to do it last year. Haven't checked it this year. It better work, I love playing with weather on, Jason not so much.

So what do y'all prefer? To get real time weather and play that way? (As it should be)

Or just load up the game and play in a warm, sunny and clear windless environment?

I am of the preference of ALWAYS loading real-time weather and conditions. If its midnight and we decide to play our game, it should be under the lights. No?

I like weather.

Just played a game with weather enabled....and...

Please Note

I went in and enabled weather, my settings are randome teams so it gave me the Indiana Hoosiers and the weather there was 88 and light rain. I backed out of the play now screen, went to lobby and got into my game as the Texas A&M Aggies. The game started and it was raining! So i checked the actual weather in College Station and it was 92 and fair. No rain, no clouds.

Moral of the story? The weather you get in the play now exhibition mode follows you to whatever team you choose to play with online. So if you want correct weather, choose the team you want to play with online in the play now exhibition mode before backing out.

This was the case last year too

I'm two for two on S25 with slightly extreme weather so far.

Oklahoma vs Stanford had 18-24 MPH winds in Norman.
Oklahoma at Air Force was slightly windy and rainy in Colorado Springs.

Fun to play in that type of stuff, adds new aspects to your game plan.

I like the receivers slipping in the rain too or harder for them to catch the ball...adds some realism and a little more difficulty.
