Minneapolis Skyline at Huntington Bank Stadium
So when is the Minneapolis skyline going to get added back to Huntington Bank Stadium for the Gophers? I know that Minnesotans are pretty passive aggressive and don't like to complain, but I cant be the only person out there who sees this and thinks the representation of Minneapolis looks a bit empty in the game.
It loomed large in the background of every version of the game prior to CFB25. It made Minnesota stand out as a unique program in the heart of a bustling city. I get that maybe backgrounds got more technically complex, so I guess that made sense as a year one exclusion. And yeah, you cant really see it if you're on the field like in RTG because it's sunken into the ground.
But the skyline really is central to the stadium. You can see it from most angles of the stadium and it was purposely constructed to leave a stunning view of the skyscrapers. It's so central to Minnesota's identity that EA included picture of it on the menu background if you select the Gophers as your favorite team or use them for a Dynasty.
I really want to be fair when I complain, so if I could please at least get a reason why it wasn't included that would be great. I hope to see the skyline added eventually.
