Can you still provide us with a screenshot so we can take a look for you? Which iPad are you using?
sure, here you go, I'm using an iPad Pro 11".
I hope you guys have an iPad to see this for yourselves, it's not unmanageable, it just "looks off".

I'm afraid you can't change the active nations once the game begins - I have considered looking into this, but in all honesty it'd take quite a while for this sort of thing to 'process' even if it was feasible and that didn't seem to suit a 'pick up and play,' 'quick burst during commute' style of play that people often want when playing the mobile game.
makes sense - thank you!
(p.s. I understand and agree with your "quick bursting during commute" comment for mobile users, but it doesn't necessarily apply to iPad users, don't forget about us

30 seasons in a single game - this is for various reasons, (1) it's roughly the duration of a real-life managerial career, (2) it keeps the memory usage predictable and thus makes it easier to test and ensure the game is stable upon all supported devices.
I'm not sure what you mean by this - can you clairfy please?
This issue has never been present present in FMM.
Thanks for the quick reply!
- All clear on the first one - making it align with the real life duration of a manager make sense
- On the second one - at the beginning of the game I select 5 nations, can I change those at any point of the game (in between seasons?)
- On the third one - glad to hear
Thanks!

Somehow the text looks stretched/pixelated, are there any plans for optimization?
It's difficult to capture through screenshots because the image gets so compressed that on a screenshot it looks ok but the text just looks stretched/pixelated on the iPad.

I searched the forums, but can't find the info anywhere (asking for iPad if relevant).
- Is there a season limit just like there was for the Touch version?
- Can we change in between seasons?
- Is the regen bug that we had on last year's touch version resolved (basically teams would only get 1-2 regens outside of your own league).
Thanks

is this still unresolved

I'm gonna skip the next release. I'm not going to support a company that maintains games for 6 months.
It's almost better you don't release anything for iOS next year, instead of abandoning a buggy game.

Thanks for this, our QA team will take a look at the saves.
At this stage there are not currently any plans for any further updates for FM21, however any improvements and tweaks will be considered for any future versions.
Hi Neil, could you clarify what the second sentence? do "further updates" also include bug fixes?
Thanks

I think on top of what you wrote, the magical word this year was "streamline" vs. in most cases based on the comments on the forum meant "fixing what wasn't broken", like contracts.. which now means that people have to go and ask for them again.

Hi,
Apologies in advance but this rant but as an iOS user on Ipad I feel quite let down this year.
- Could I play the game? Sure.
- Is it enjoyable? Certainly not - a quick look in the bugs section shows that bugs have either taken months to fix (quicklinks one), are still open after a couple of months (youth intake, sorting columns), etc..
And now I see that there's a "get up to 35% off Football Manager 2021" offer? What a slap in the face. I paid the full price and still can't really play it, but that's on me.
Being told that bugs are been worked on but not seeing the patches that fix these bugs coming really just shows how the iOS version has been de-prioritized, and that's on you.
I honestly cannot recommend it to friends and am not going to buy next year, unless there's very solid proof that basic functions work as expected. Will me not buying it making any difference? Certainly not, but this is a very quick way of losing trust with your iOS fanbase.
Thanks

bringing this one on top again - it's been a month and still no fix.
Honestly (and unfortunately) I have been able to play the game on my ipad for 1 month since it came out - first it took months to fix the "click on linked names" bug and now this one - these just take the fun out of it completely, small things that have a major impact on my playing experience.
---
EDIT: still broken - I installed the patch that's out since today but the bug is still there, I tried sorting on any column with the apple pen and my finger and of about 20 touches only 8 or so worked. Or rather, on the wide columns with the name and the position it always works but on the narrower columns (age, value, weight, etc) it almost never works.

agreed.. it's been 2 weeks and it's literally the one thing that is preventing me from playing the game.

no, you're not the only one - just to save you some time, here's the answers you'll typically get:
- submit it as a feature request and it might be taken into account for next year.
- the game has to run on lower-spec/older devices, hence the limitation.
Have a good day!

Hi, thanks for the update!
Out of curiosity, what's the rationale behind having lower division clubs having less youth players? Is that how it actually is in reality too (I honestly don't know).
0 -
not only that but clicking on the column headers sometimes expands/shrinks the columns unnecessarily, making it so that I have to shift/scroll horizontally within the box to see everything - really makes the game unusable.
0 -
yes, it will impact the number of available players as in you won't have full squads for the leagues/sub-leagues that you don't select.

I just tried in FM21 touch on ipad: if you simlate a game you can NOT see the highlights afterwards.

I have started a save with only the Italian Seria A and B. I am in the 2026-2027 season and the database size is just ridiculously small. Using the latest update.
Apart from Italy:
- No team in Europe has "active" players under 24. Either the team has no player younger than 24 at all or they are greyed out.
- No other national team has U19/20/21/23 players, except if they play in Italy.
Makes the game unplayable since I basically can't buy young players from any other league than Italy.
Does anyone else have this? Is it a bug or an effect of the streamlining?
Adding screenshots. Squads selected with „all players“ and sorted from youngest to oldest.
Real has young players but they are greyed out – Werder and Monaco have 0 players younger than 24. For any team outside of Italy it‘s one of these two cases.

To clarify, as English is not my first language. I did not mean simpler, as easier to play. Meant that it feels like a lesser game, compared to last years version. It feels more stripped down.
I think they call it streamlined now.
There will always be people that are unhappy with the latest version (bugs aside) what baffles me is that they removed features that nobody asked for them to remove.
0 -
I don't like it either - it almost feels like they removed features and are hiding behind the word "streamlining". Like removing the option to coach a player on the weaker foot - there are about 50 other options, why remove that one instead of just adding it where it wasn't available.
I still have to find an example where they use "streamlining" in the sense of adding a working feature on other platforms, rather than just removing features.

Ok, but you'll hardly find tablets that are smaller than 11".
In any case, thanks for looking into it. I'll looking into getting refund for the time being and will keep an eye on the patch release notes. It's not a big issue per se, but a deal-breaker in the long-term/longer periods of use.
