In beta we could change weather and time of day. Now we can't in franchise mode.
I can understand the argument about not being able to change the weather, because it's part of the challenge (although a system whereby it only changes for a short while then cycles back to what it's supposed to be would be good), but I can't understand at all why we can't change the time of day.
This makes getting good screenshots so much more difficult. Pausing during that perfect moment and realising the sun is right there casting that awful lens glare over everything really ruins things. Being able to nudge the sun out of the way, or see how a scene looks at sunset, or how lights look at night when you're building, is all stuff we should be able to do and has no impact on the challenge of the gameplay.
If you can't reinstate changing the weather in franchise, please consider reinstating being able to change the time of day. I'm surprised how much this has disappointed me. I take screenshots as a form of therapy almost, and was really excited to be able to combine my love of that with the fun I had in franchise mode during the beta (I put in 101 hours!). I hope this is possible again.
