EA College Football 26 is finally here. A year after the beloved college football video game franchise returned from a decade-long hiatus, the second edition of the rebooted franchise is here for players to enjoy. The game was officially released to the general public on Thursday. However, players who purchased the deluxe edition or MVP bundle got three days of early access, starting on Monday.
As a result, players have been able to experiment with the settings for a few days to figure out what works best. Here is a look at five settings you must change to help you win games in College Football 26.
5 Settings To Change To Help You Win Games in College Football 26
#1 Skill Level Difficulty
One of the most challenging things for players to figure out in sports games like College Football 26 is what difficulty level to play on. Players who want a true challenge should consider the Heisman difficult. However, that is only for long-time veterans of football video games. Players looking for fair and competitive games should try out the All-American difficulty.
#2 Kicking Control Scheme
Kicking is an important part of the game, and without a solid grasp of how to kick, you will leave many points on the board. However, before you try kicking for the first time, you need to figure out which kicking settings to use. The Tap and Tap option is preferred by most players. Tap and Hold can work, but it is more difficult for the average player. Tap and Tap allows the player to reset their finger, making kicking much simpler.
#3 Wear and Tear
One of the changes from College Football 25 to College Football 26 is a more realistic wear and tear system. However, this can be frustrating and tedious to use, especially when playing dynasty mode. So, it is recommended to lower the rate from 50 to 40. You can also choose to turn off the setting entirely.
#4 Reticle Speed
Reticle speed is an important setting because it impacts how quickly the yellow target moves when you use the left stick. While you can play around with this setting to find what works for you, setting it at seven is a good starting point.
#5 Passing Type
There are four passing types available for players to choose from, each having different benefits. Revamped Passing is a good option because it gives players more control over their passes compared to other passing types. The only issue is that you can’t see where the reticle is on the field, which can take some getting used to.
