How do we turn off tactical advice now? It used to be under staff > responsibilities > advice and reports. It is no longer there. And I am now forced to see my staff complain before every game about how I am not setup the way they want me to be for each opponent. I find this highly annoying.

LOL What you mean?
SI and Football Manager team are acting together, for us to change our monitors?? HAHAHAUh, no that isn't what I said. I got tired of waiting for a proper fix. So I got rid of the problem monitor. Me buying a monitor has nothing to do with SI.
However, the issue is only on 1080p and 720p monitors. The issue does not effect any other type of monitor. I have now tested on 6 different monitors, and it was only a problem on the 1080p and the 720p ones, the two 1440's and the two 4k monitors were just fine. But they apparently don't understand that, so it will never be a true fix for those with 1080p and 720p monitors. 1080 and 720 monitors are locked at those resolutions and can not be changed. And the game does not render in them properly, causing the text to look awful.

I just went and bought a $300 AOC (never heard of them before today) 4K monitor. Guess what, it looks amazing on that. I swap back to my $500 Samsung 1080P monitor, complete crap. I'll be selling the Samsung asap.

Which custom skin are you using? ^^
So far I've tried Heffem, Kojuro and Material (all can be found on FMScout website). And they all look better than the default skin. Not 100% prefect, but readable enough for me.

Not completely fixed for me either. The weird underline thing on bold text is gone. But it still has a bright fuzzy halo to all the white text in the game. Which makes it look very blurry and hard to read (and again, only in FM21). Also how do we still not have a dark or light official skin either? Why are we stuck with this purple only this year? I think that might be what is making it look so bad. I always switch to the dark theme.
EDIT: I just switched to a dark custom theme and it looks perfectly fine. But, the theme also changed the font as well. So I guess I'll just be playing with a custom themes only this year. So I guess thanks for the partial fix SI. At least its readable for me now with this non official theme.

As soon as we'll be able to do so. We're finding it's affecting users with certain types of user defined display settings, so in the meantime if you try changing these via Windows display settings you may find you can get it displaying without issue.
This is incorrect. It has nothing to do with user defined settings what so ever. It is the fact the game can not render in 1080P properly. My monitor can not output any other resolution than 1920x1080. This can not be changed. You would know this if someone in the company bought a 1080P monitor and actually tested it to see for themselves. This is not a user defined setting via windows or the video card. It is an an issue with the game itself. I'm starting to think I need to demand my money back from steam for this years version. Because it is starting feel like you will never be able to resolve this. Its been weeks, and the people working on it don't seem to even understand the actual issue is. No other piece of software has this issue. Not even older versions of FM. To emphasize this, if I hook up an old 1440 monitor to this PC (with no setting changes what so ever), it looks fine on that monitor. But I refuse to use that old small monitor. I want to use my nice big curved samsung 32" monitor that works flawlessly with everything but FM21. I'm a little shocked and flustered this is taking so long to figure out on your end. I provided all this info in the topic I created, which seems to have been ignored in favor of this one.

Is this coming to gamepass this year? Or the full version? Or neither?

I just now got a chance to install the update and take a look. Still looks the same in full release.

I gave up on playing it until its fixed. It is just too much of an eye strain for me. Started giving me headaches. So I'm patiently waiting for a patch.

The OP mentions it's based on FM Touch.
Wow, right at the top too. I must be brain dead "today".

So the version on Xbox is the full version and not the touch version then?

No idea if there will be an update before release or not. Neil posted this.
I missed that. Thank you. I'll be patient.

Any chance we could see a patch by Monday for some smaller things?
I know, I'm a dunce for even asking.

All: is it just Nvidia cards? I will try my integrated intel graphics when I get home to see if it makes a difference
No. Its an issue with the game trying to render in 1080P. All our monitors with the issue are 1920x1080 (1080P, like a TV and not a standard monitor). Which is why we can't change to higher resolutions like 1440.
I've already tested using my same video card, but with my old 1440 monitor, and it looks just fine. They have to fix the game to render in 1080P. Since so many monitor makers are now selling 1080P monitors. From what I can gather this was an issue with last years beta as well. And they fixed it by release.

Hopefully because I can’t play it for very long at the moment because of eye strain
Try using this skin: https://www.fmscout.com/a-wannachup-fm21-instant-result-skin.html
Or this Skin: https://www.fmscout.com/a-priisek-dark-fm21-skin.html
It is not a fix, and the text is still blurry and hard to read. But the contrast makes it much less of a strain on my eyes. And I am now able to play in short burst now. The contrast with the black/dark back ground makes the fuzzy white text not so much of strain for me. Maybe it will for you too. Until they fix the game to render properly in 1080 this is the best its going to get I think.

Do I have to buy a new smaller monitor just to play the game
It seems to be an issue with 1920x1080 resolution. They will fix it. But it might be a bit.

I'll also add that I don't have an option in Windows settings or nvidia settings, to set the resolution any higher than 1920x1080. Which seems odd. Must be a limitation of the Samsung 32R500 monitor. I never really payed attention to this until now. As I don't really play many PC games besides FM. And oddly FM20 looks fine on this monitor.

- OS: Windows 10, updated
- Resolution: 1920x1080 (default/recommended by windows and nvidia), system and in game.
- Windowed and full screen has the issue
- GTX 960 (latest drivers)

Not sure if this is the correct sub forum to post this. Please move if not. Thank you.
This has made it unplayable for me personally unfortunately. It makes my eyes hurt. No matter what zoom level I put it at, it doesn't resolve the text. I do not have this issue in FM20 or anything else on my PC.
My resolution is set at 1920x1080 (default recommend setting by NVIDIA) using a 32" Samsung curved monitor. Let me know any other info you need.
Here are some screen shot examples of what I'm seeing in game (this is at 100% zoom, it looks the same at any other zoom level, just larger or smaller):
As you can see, it isn't on all text. But all white text. Especially bold white text. Not sure if it is the font or what. But I can't read most things in game currently without my eyes starting to feel strained. Its almost like the white text is haloed or something.

Is text blurry/fuzzy for anyone else? No matter what zoom I set it at, all text is blurry/fuzzy/hazy. This is only an issue in FM21. FM20 looks fine. So does everything else. I even tried restarting, no go.
Actually it looks like it keeps defaulting back to 85%. I change it. It reloads. Still looks off. I go back into the settings. And the setting is back to 85%. Something isn't right.

really annoyed about that.
"pre order this and youll get beta access around 2 weeks before release"
2 weeks marker come round and they delay the game and dont give a reason or even tell anyone. really underhand
I heard its because Microsoft is buying them.
