Welcome back to Gridiron Notes! All season, we will bring you information on updates coming in Madden NFL 24 straight from our development team! This year we have upgraded our notes to cover key topics and celebrate fandom across our entire community.
What We’re Hearing From You:
Each day, our team is reading the forums, chatting on social media and watching gameplay across modes on Youtube and Twitch. Below are some key updates we are monitoring before we get into Title Update 2:
Slow UI Transitions - We heard your feedback about slow UI transitions. Our Dev team has been actively working to optimize high-traffic screens inside of Ultimate Team and Superstar. You can expect incremental updates and improvements to screen transitions in the coming weeks. Some of these improvements have already gone live and there are still more to come!

Passing Accuracy - We’ve heard players feedback about passing accuracy, specifically inside of Ultimate Team gameplay. This title update does not include any updates or tuning to passing accuracy. As the player content in Ultimate Team progresses and the passing ratings get better, the expectation is QB’s will naturally become more accurate. However, we will continue to actively monitor QB performance, take feedback and if necessary, make tuning changes in future title updates.
Franchise Draft Classes - The team is aware of an issue that is impacting Draft Classes and is prioritizing fixes. We will provide an update via answers HQ when we have a timeline.
Keep an eye on @MaddenNFLDirect for information and updates, now let’s get onto the update:
