I have hard enough time just trying to move qb from pressure and hitting the correct buttons to pass to right wr. I cant be trying to focus some cone on a guy and hit the right button too.

Id much rather just see real touch and precision passing in the game mechanic. Instead of just lobs that float too long and allow defenders your trying to throw over time to go get it.

But now the wait begins........ for real details and videos ( after e3)

As someone mentioned before here , though these things sound good so far... if that oline play isnt alot better.... man , i just dunno what ill think then.... hard to swallow this horrid oline "logic"

Really interesting idea. Are you thinking like an NBA/FIFA system where the longer you hold the button the further the ball goes? And different button combos would do different things like lobs, bullets, etc? Could be really interesting. That power system works really well in the other games.

The goat edition most likely includes an EA access monthly pass of some sort. Considering it's only $5.

A win win for EA. Promote EA Access Front and center for people eager to play Madden early.

If this means that the ball is no longer tethered to the receiver, that would be great and could mean lower completion percentages. Obviously, too early to make assumptions based off of a couple words, but I am intrigued.


On the one hand, I agree. Tethered passing needed to be gone years and years ago.

On the other hand APF total control passing did it without adding the clunky controls of Fevers read and lead. It would also be disappointing to find out Frostbite innovation is just ripping off a feature of a game released in 2003.
