Madden 24 skill-based passing
Skill-based passing is the latest feature to be added to EA’s long-running football game series, and it’s a game-changer.
In previous Madden games, passing accuracy was controlled by the game itself. While this made gameplay accessible to new and casual players, it also limited your ability to execute precise throws, thread the needle, and lead your receivers to victory. Thankfully, with skill-based passing you have full control over your passes, and it’s a feature that adds depth to the new Madden game and encourages you to strategize.
How to use skill-based passing in Madden 24
To get started with skill-based passing in Madden 24, you first need to navigate to the game settings menu. Once there, you’ll see a new option labelled ‘skill-based passing’, which you can enable to affect your gameplay.
There are three different settings for skill-based passing: beginner, intermediate, and advanced. The beginner setting provides the most assistance, which makes it easier for new players to get the hang of passing mechanics. Intermediate strikes a balance between assistance and manual control, while advanced gives you full control over passing accuracy and power.
Once you’ve selected your preferred setting, you can begin practicing with skill-based passing enabled, fine-tuning your skills and getting the most out of your virtual quarterback. It’s worth noting that skill-based passing also affects the performance of AI-controlled quarterbacks, with quarterbacks with higher skill ratings having better accuracy and decision-making abilities.
With skill-based passing, you can unleash your inner Peyton Manning and execute precise throws, thread the needle, and lead your receivers to victory. If you’re new to Madden, this feature is a game-changer, whereas veteran players are encouraged to strategize and choose quarterbacks based on their individual skill set.
That’s everything you need to know about the new skill-based passing feature in Madden 24. With the game not releasing until late July, you’ll have plenty of time to practice and perfect your game.
