I'll happily wait an extra couple of days if it means the academy stuff is all sorted out, with the logos, duplicates, etc, as it would take me ages to go through and do it manually anyway. Hopefully most of the gameplay and menu issues are sorted as well - I'd much rather wait a little bit longer for a more refined product. Whenever it's ready, I'll be there - though a weekday release is going to be frustrating at work, haha!
Does anyone know if the custom stadium frame rate issue is something that Big Ant can resolve, or if it's there to stay? On the demo, I can play in the SCG no problem, but as soon as I try anything from the stadium creator, it lags and stutters all over the place. I don't really want to have to go through every team I download to revert their stadium back to one if the default ones, but I will if it's what's required to play the game, if all the included stadiums work as well as the SCG does. I know someone said something about optimisation though, so I don't know if that's been resolved or not.
