Football Manager 2021 Official Feedback Thread

[Double0Seven]

Was this issue fixed? 

Im talking about the 1) scouting issues. Especially for the AI as https://community.sigames.com/topic/531862-brexit-in-fm21/?do=findComment&comment=12796040 mentioned here. Wouldnt be fun to see the AI completely mess up squad building with brexit.  

 

[Double Indemnity]

Thanks for the quick fix to newgens!

[Kirariuk]

Fixed weather issue that brings rain to game but never rains

[LucasBR]

Sorry I didn't get it, the newgens fix is compatible with my save game or should I start a new one? Thanks.

Looks like they haven't fixed the issue related to duplicate home games in the league. I think that is the gamebreaker for me too. I don't want to play in the league where I can play my opponent twice at home, that's unfair

I have raised in the bugs forum that we can't switch between tactics and team talks at half time and I have so far been ignored 

 

Please tell me this is a known issue and will be resolved? It's so annoying making a half time substitution but then being unable to give the oncoming player an individual talk 

Especially if the game goes to extra time like the FA Cup where you get the fourth sub. You can't change the tactics before the team talk. You can only do it afterwards.

Does the Brexit change require a new save?  If not, how will it interact with an existing DeBrexit fix?

Brexit work permit rules are save game compatible. So the rules will change in existing saves.

After some more thought - it shouldn't matter anyway if the rules change - the deBrexit fixes remove the rule so Brexit never happens. Should only affect saves that actually have a Brexit.

My suggestion is to start a new save no matter what, especially if you have installed something from the workshop, as you risk to see something weird when you're years into the save. Some users already reported on steam it was breaking schedules for u18/u23 teams anyway.

[Boydy9]

After saying I was done after last year I read the beta feedback thread and was pulled back in by the ME reviews which was the single biggest disaster last year, after launch while the feedback changed slightly it still encouraged me enough to go ahead and try FM21 again. Feedback based on about 15 hour of play for what it's worth:

• The skin - not having more than one available was poor especially when the only one had a big white window which contrasted so much - I did download a user made one to resolve this but should I have to go hunting for something which doesn't hurt the eyes ?
   
• The UI - My god what a disaster, change after change for what only can be changes sake. Press conferences were bad before so I'm amazed that there seems to have been a concerted effort to make them worse by presenting them in this way on the screen. To compound this by using the same style in team meetings etc makes me think whoever designed and signed off on this doesn't actually play the game.
  Half time and full time team talks, can i not just see easily how my ramblings went down rather than having to look at each single player in turn ? and don't start me on the gestures which are a complete waste of time.
   
• Condition/Match Sharpness - I get that it's more realistic to not use percentages but if you change something please provide some context on what the new symbols mean. I've had players in good condition with sharpness going down, poor condition with sharpness going down and other scenarios which don't seem to be dependent on if a player is playing games or not - a mess
   
• XG - Ok ok it's a new feature and you want to promote but to use it in this degree is overkill. It seems to be the single most important number in the game now, more than passes, possession, shots,  chances etc - I'm not against  new way of analysing games but tone it down a bit. Every during and post match summary is all about XG being good or bad, telling me my team played very well because of a high XG is meaningless and just annoying.
   
• The match - The ME is a massive improvement in my limited time using it, much more varied in terms of goals and play
  Does my Assistant need to remind me every 5 minutes that a player is out of position deliberately because i am retraining him to that position ? SUre I can ignore him but he just chimes in with the same opinion thee next game.
  What happened to the timeline ? Is it so unrealistic to want to look back at a specific highlight during the game ?
  Making tactical changes and subs takes longer than before, why can't I just do a quick swap rather than going into tactics  ? (possibly I've missed an easy way to do this)
  I feel as I'm watching match highlights I have little control over rather than managing a team, not sure if this makes sense but it just feels like I have no real insight than someone who is just watching a game.
   

Overall - I don't like the game, sorry but I just don't.

It looks terrible, really bad. New features are at best confusing at worst pointless. Everything that made FM good previously seems to have been changed all in the name of change. But the single biggest issue is I feel so detached from the game and my team.

The first 10-15 hours should be the most immersing time in the game, building a team, a tactic, getting used to the payers and the club. Not in FM21 I was bored, I felt on the outside looking in, hard to explain but I don't feel like I'm managing and it's not fun.

Maybe I should give it longer but then again if it was any game but FM I wouldn't have given it this long - either way I assume I won't get a refund from Steam as I've played more than 2 hours but I've uninstalled and asked for one. If I don't I may try again in about 6 months to see if its any better or I may not

I think that is very well put @Boydy9

I'm going to go with a Brighton save again, so with club expectations of avoiding the drop in 2020/21, I am going to assume I can do that and not worry too much about the results and instead work on the tactic and deciding on players to develop/sell, so needing the fine detail to tweak in match to get results, I can get away with not having this season.

But I think your description is great. In FM20 I can quickly get to the opposition instructions screen, quickly check passing combinations, and other things that enable me to make 'real-time' informed changes. In FM21, you can see stats at 1/2 time but that's it. I get what they are trying to do, but having the stats available at all times is what mitigates it for us not really being at a match watching every second, because yes... this is a video game and comprehensive highlights is what I have time for, not watching 50+ full matches a season.

I do get that feeling that I am along for the ride as a spectator and I hope that changes with updates in a patch or my approach can change (which it shouldn't have to) to embrace how matches are presented to us, the 'managers'.

You have some good points.. but for me the ME is a game breaker.

The ME is so good that I can take the disaster UI and still enjoy the game

After the latest patch, what happened in Scotland concerning Brexit? What rules will apply there?

[MatthewS17]

Getting rather sick of moments like these. Defenders just blatantly vacating positions. Why is Lindelof on the edge of the area? Why is Wan-Bissaka there too? Lindelof doesn't seem to have any instruction at all that he needs to get back to defend.

Why is the entire team so deformed and erratic??? It's not a counter attack so there was plenty time to get back into shape. There was absolutely no reason that Lindelof and Wan-Bissaka or Maguire(Right, 5) should be where they are. Telles and Fred are on top of the same player ffs.

 

There seems to be a genuine problem with reactions, in that most of everything seems to happen after the ball has already been played or the phase has already ended. In another match, I watched a ball bounce twice in between my centre backs, them still continuing to move in the opposite direction, and a player rush past them onto the ball, and only then did they start running in the direction of the ball, by which it is too late. 

These types of errors have been very prevalent in my save so far.

The same ones that applied before the patch, I'd imagine, since the Scottish FA haven't announced their new work permit rules yet. However, it's looking like things might not be great for Scotland, as they likely won't be able to be as flexible with their work permits as they used to be.

Is there a way to disable that annoying "We're sorry! Football Manager has crashed"-window that pops up every time I exit the game?

[1891]

I don't see any noticeable difference in the new patch regarding newgens. I paused my save when I found out about this bug, and did a simulation for a little bit over a year to see for myself. I now simluated little bit over a year again after the patch and the difference is really small.

The same countries that had zero newgens both year one and year two before the patch still have zero both years (mostly countries in Africa). The file is in early September so I have two intakes from Africa (even though many countries have moved from October to April).

Finland (view-only) had zero newgens in before the patch. after the patch they had a whooping four newgens (all in the same club). Iceland went from zero to thirteen, also all of them in the same club.

Hello

My friends have created an online mode. However, we found that we can not watch other live match if we versus other ai team/user team. In FM2020, there should have a button to enter and watch friends live match. But we found that the button currently only suit for specific match in FM2021, not all the match is appeared with the button. Please let me know is this feature already disabled for watch other players live match.

 

 

Thanks

Same here, paused my save when I found out about it. After the update today I tested it to see if it has been improved (spoiler: it hasn't). Started a simulation with only the Swedish league loaded and all players from top division clubs all over the world. Initially, the player count was about 90 000. I simmed to 2024 and saw that the player count was now 82 000. So I looked at the youth intakes. A top league like the Bundesliga got a grand total of five new players through the 2023 youth intake. Hope they can fix this bug soon as it is game breaking in my opinion. 

UPDATE: It is now 2030 and the player count has been reduced to 67 000. The pattern I'm noticing is that the player count goes down by 2000-3000 players each year.

Edited December 2, 2020 by LeoFM

[Piksi#10]

8,000 players in 4 years time really is alarming. Can someone from SI please respond to this? Cause they do mention in the bug thread that the issue is still around for longer games, specifically 10+, but to lose 9% of the game population in just 4 years is certainly game breaking. 

A real shame, cause I've been holding off my start until the hotfix arrived and thought today would've been the day..

It is not the most bugged release ever. This is also an incredibly complex game wiht a lot of moving parts released in the middle of a pandemic and while the world of football is significantly changing. Expecting no bugs is simply unrealistic.

[Fraaj]

This could not possibly look any uglier. Quality is on Very High btw. 

 

[Purple]

I've also posted this in the bugs forum. It appears that the problem in pre game editor verifying certain nations database and advanced rules still remain. It's been fixed in england but still remains in Germany.

[Purple]

I mean still remain after 21.1.3 update

[qwerty22]

With all due respect to whoever is behind the Match report UI design.

When I click on a result to go to a match report I expect to see a screen with the following:

Stadium

Attendance

Teams/Lineup and formations for both teams

Result

Scorers

Subs

Man of the match

Match stats

What we're getting in FM21 is XG shoved down our throats and half of this informations either missing or under a 3 click process.

CM 01 had a better and more informative match screen

Hi,

im no spring chicken and have been playing football manager games since the zx spectrum days. Every management game that came out I bought thats my thing. Dont play much else. Now FM has obviously improved massively throughout the years but for me its slowed down. Every year new features are added but if i am brutaly honest most are not required. For me polish up all the good features and make the ME much better, its not improving enough. Thungs like diving headers, excuse me if not the case  but have not seen one in all the timebi have played. Loads of other things that i feel could add to a better ME, im not expecting Fifa graphics but it needs to be better than it is. Still love playing the game so dont get me wrong but improvevthe important things and i feel it could be amazing.

I think my opinion is not very popular here but in my opinion FM 20 ME wasnt so bad.. my biggest down site on it was the lack of play from central areas.. 

But of course FM 21 ME is far more better, i hope in the future the UI will be better

The new work permit rules are so lenient that squad building will almost be the same as before. So basically there shouldnt be any issues. I havent tested it myself yet though

To be fair, I've been playing since CM4 and I would agree that this is the most bugged release ever. Every single time I load up the game I run into a new bug, it's got to the point where I can't even bring myself to log every bug that I come across because there's so many.

I never expected no bugs, but the game is filled with ton of small ones. Like right now I went to player's instructions from the lower bar to check if I've given him shoot more often instryction. It was not ticket, so I ticked it. But "ok" button was greyed out. I went to his instructions throug team tactics and boom, it's there. Small and not critical, but it's there and there are dozens of them.

I respect the point of view, that devs should be given a pass due to covid, but I also see no point in turning blind eye

The thing is that if they will not add new features - they will not be able to sell new game.
If they say "we polished all of the stuff to perfection" - then its just a patch to game. Not a new game.
In every long time living game, specially MMO like Lineage 2 and WoW, you can see that there is some level where amount of features are great enough and the game is awesome.
But more and more stuff is added to a game, to get new players, until it become complete garbage. Hopefully FM will not fall into such category.

The un started from FM20 a bad habit: trasform UI in a useless clickfest. FM19, i want to promote a U19 player to first team: U19 (1 click), player (1 click), move to (1 click). Total =3 clicks.

FM20/21: development (1), U19 (2), team (3), player (4), move to (5). 5 clicks. 

Try to modify your tactic during a match in FM21: you have to click a lot.

Also: useless features.

You perfectly sum up the xg, but look at new features: 

Young intake informations: good, but... What i have to do with this? It's too late to change my january market strategy! 

Development: a horrible clickfest. It was so simple when you could select report in U19 screen. Now you have to (not choose, have to) open the development screen only to search your U19 players.
