FIFA 23 Stadiums Thread
May 10, 2022 6:21PM
edited August 2022
Hi guys, I've started a new thread for FIFA 23 for Stadiums we think should be added to the game in FIFA 24 onwards and for all of the remaining issues with current stadiums in-game that still haven't been addressed. Please keep this thread for realistic requests of Stadiums that should be in FIFA and not for personal wish lists. (Also no point requesting Premier League, La Liga or Bundesliga stadiums to be added as they should all be in FIFA 23 onwards due to those leagues having full treatments). Now EA have the UEFA license they really need to start adding Stadiums for all Champions League & Europa League regulars to improve the authenticity. Also, now EA have the Serie A license more stadiums from Italy would be really welcomed..
Can i also please make a special mention of the fact you have gone to great length last year to add the ability to edit your team's stadium in Create Your Club in Career Mode, but haven't added this feature Offline into the Edit Stadium section, where we can only currently choose a Generic Stadium & rename it.. This is a massive fail! This is where we wanted the Edit Stadium feature the most! We needed to be able to Edit Stadiums of other teams BEFORE entering into Career Mode, for immersion purposes. So i request that you please port this new feature into Edit Teams > Stadiums in the Offline menu..
(And please also make it so that when you Download Latest Squads it doesn't overwrite your edited Stadiums!)
General Issues

* LED ad boards should be added, where they are in real life.
* Bring back the tunnel view before the game at half time or even after the game.
* Stadium exterior is good but its unrealistic its shown that often. In reality you see the stadiums from a heli-cam only before big and important games.

* Lighting and shadows in the most stadiums have to be redone since the sun seems to have a wrong position.
* A lot of stadia still look grey and lifeless (upper tiers of the Nou Camp, Wembley etc)

Edit Stadiums
Currently, we can edit a generic stadiums name, but why not take it one step further to try and bridge the gap between licensed / generic stadiums? What about seating colour? Hoarding colour? Goal net type, pattern & colour? Pitch pattern? We want full control over the look of stadiums..
This is how I expect Edit Stadiums to look:
* Rename: Nou Camp
* Seating Colour: Red etc.
* Goal Net Type: Rectangle, Triangle, Deep (Wembley, Bernabeu etc.)
* Goal Net Pattern: Plain, Stripes, Chequered etc.
- Colour 1: White
- Colour 2: Red
* Pitch Pattern: Large Horizontal etc.
* Hoarding Colour:
- Tier 1: Blue
- Tier 2: Red
Or go one step further and port over the following stadium creator/editor (to FIFA 20) that was in FIFA Manager 12:

It would be fab if they could get all Championship, Italian and French stadiums. Celtic, Rangers, Besiktas, Fenerbahce, Galatasaray, Anderlecht, Club Brugge, Sporting Lisbon, Copenhagen, Feyenoord, Red Bull Salzburg, Olympiacos, Red Star Belgrade, Dinamo Zagreb, Basel and Young Boys.
Most of the above and MLS. Ligue 1 been rumoured for 3 years now. Let’s me honest it’ll be a miracle if it’s done before 2030
Nope, that's the old roof, the old roof that been removed for almost 2 years now
Could be wrong, but I'm sure I saw that Osasuna's El Sadar was scanned and LAFC's Banc of California Stadium was in the database at the start of Fifa 22 but not added? Sticking with MLS, I think New England and Chicago Fire already have their stadiums in Madden, so could be a relatively easy transition into Fifa (similar to Atlanta and Seattle) - not sure why this hasn't already happened.
Wouldn't be massively surprised by Freiburg's new stadium along with Bochum and Furth in Germany.
FYI, FIFA and Madden didn't share models for those two stadiums
Ah, fair enough - never owned (or really played) a Madden game so wasn't sure. Do you know if it would be possible to convert them over to FiFA? Probably being naive/uninformed, but surely if EA have the core stadium scanned, they can adjust aspects such as pitch dimensions etc.?
Azteca has a Stadium Exterior in Madden too!!
Well it was in the trailer
Dynamic attendances would be great.
Yes that already happens on NG during pre-match warm up cut-scenes..
Thought as much. The inclusion of WSL is great, but LCFC Women playing at a full King Power Stadium would look a bit odd.
No mention in the trailer of Bochum, Greuther Furth, Osasuna, Elche or Nottingham Forest.
I’m sure Forest will be in the game (potentially late) but not so sure about the others.
Potentially the German sides have more of a chance with the fact it appears at least some of the German sides have been scanned?
Valladoilid I believe
I'd say just the one that is hosting the Final..
Unfortunately, it looks like there's only a few stadiums in the competition that are actually used by football teams.
Melbourne Rectangular Stadium would be the most logical to add as it's used by 3 A-League teams (and a women's team, if they're looking to add more female teams in the future)... but when has EA ever used logic
