Ollieduncs97 Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Firstly I just wanna say how much I'm enjoying the game so far. I'm having a blast playing! It feels very smooth and runs very fast, even on my original Xbox one. One feature I feel is missing from the game however is the ability to add/remove leagues within a save. Not sure if this was by choice or a bug (as I saw a hint in game saying it could be done, but couldn't find the option anywhere), but with the 5 nation limit and no ability to add/remove playable leagues I find it stifles my save and stops me doing a journeyman or exploring those smaller leagues and nations.

flaminga Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Morning all, just here to say how much I'm loving the game on Xbox and to highlight a few things that could do with improving or general fixing :-) First thing I noticed and the one thing that is bugging me the most are the player instructions. For the life of me I can't scroll down to the crossing instructions, which means a part of detailing my tactic is simply missing, very frustrating. The other issues I'm having are less intrusive so I will just list them below; 1) Unable to set "play with reserves until match fit" for any player 2) Swapping/moving positions on the pitch can be a faf as the game doesn't always register the correct position. For example, I want to move ST(CR) into ST(C), takes about 5-6 attempts for the game to place him in the right position. 3) No frequent interviews/press conferences/team talks/player talk is a shame 4) Staff contracts renew automatically, haven't found a way to do them manually or terminate manually. 5) The d-pad function in the inbox doesn't always register properly, not even after multiple cursor/d-pad clicks 6) This is more of a question really, but sponsorship money seems inbalanced? I went from Belgian 3rd tier to top flight, playing Euro Cup II even. Game says average sponsor income in the league is £25M but I am stuck at £1.1M even after the recent sponsor deal ended. My club's rep is 2.5 stars and am the 15th highest in the nation for rep. Is this normal as I have now hit a ceiling in terms of what budget I have available.

minigod Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 1) Unable to set "play with reserves until match fit" for any player - bug 3) No frequent interviews/press conferences/team talks/player talk is a shame - thats FM Touch, has always been like that for the streamlined approach. The touchline shouts are as good as team talks and you actually have a useful indicator of how it has affected your players Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ares Cataclysm Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Will you please fix the add second manager thing. It's absolutely ridiculous it's not there. I want to play with my friends on the couch. I also want to manage 2 different clubs at once sometimes (eg Roda JC and Man Utd) I really don't understand why such a simple feature is missing and why you keep stating the obvious to is asking about it.

TC237 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 My feedback is simply Thanks. Thanks to Miles & all the devs involved. I'm finally able to play a proper Manager game on console again. I enjoy being able to click the left stick & use the cursor ... I know it might be a hardware thing but I'd take the fully beefed up game no matter how unoptimized it is with the controller FM has always been a game made for a different pace, so even if it needs 18 clicks to promote a player ... I'm happy to do it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

minigod Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Thank you SI! Was surprised to see that an update has gone through Microsoft certification already, thanks for the hard work getting some fixes out. The UI fixes have made things vastly improved, being able to send players to the reserve team for fitness is going to help me so much, it's surprising just how much you miss that option when it's not available. Hopefully a cursor speed option comes in a later update but for now, I am very happy with the tidying up of the game this update has done. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah got 30 seasons but had to start a new holiday save as if failed to unlock on my Bayern Munich save in 2050 even though the dialogue kept popping up. Thanks for your help. The go 30 games without conceding achievement is actually impossible without cheating. Please leave that out next year. 10 without conceding and 20 too.

blackberrychris Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Hi. loving the Xbox version - thanks on match day is there any easy way to get from tactics set up to the full squad (like in touch where you could hide the tactics?) it’s currently very difficult to see more detailed stats (like recent ratings) when choosing your squad, as you have to leave the match setup screen - likewise it makes it difficult to remove a player from your bench if not directly replacing them with another player. thanks!

Agreed on the quick chats, would be great to have players chats back like on the PC etc as you can’t tell the players what you think etc unless certain parameters are met (e.g they fall below I think like 5.5 in previous match). would be useful (and I think realistic) to be able to have conversations available Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chino_M3 Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Loving the game finally being back on Xbox. I don’t have a PC (New Xbox’s etc almost up to that standard now anyway) so it is a welcome addition to the gaming lineup! so a few things I’m noticing that I’d hope will be sorted eventually:- 1. training/ staff - on PC (back in the day ... 🤦🏼♂️) you could assign coaches to area specific trainings (so someone who’s good at attacking you can specifically ask them to coach the team in attack). This version seems to have little to no input on training, only that it’s run by you as manager or your assistant and the only input then is to choose what style you want, e.g. attack to then have a breakdown in % at the end of the month of what your players have been trainer in. For a detailed game I’d hope that we will see an update showing training specific areas via certain staff etc. 2. database size - there seems to be no option to sort database size. Some very high profile transfer targets not even available on the game and it’s nothing to do with age (for the most part) so as in it’s not because players are protected by child protection laws etc. some of the players I’m talking about are available on the PC version because he seen videos with them in, can’t understand why the options aren’t available on Xbox version? 3. Player chats - I’ve already replied to a couple of questions about this but you used to be able to have chats with players at the drop of a hat. This isn’t available on this one and would be ideal to have back available. 4. youth set up - I’m assuming this is because of new child protection laws but I believe you used to be able to get your own youth candidates in to the youth sides (aside from the clubs on youth intake process) I liked doing this because generally speaking the youth intake is garbage so you could add some other prospects to the ranks. This doesn’t seem to be an option on this years and would be good to have available. Could anyone advise on this? 5. Match set up screen - seems to be difficult to get players from ‘squad’ to change with starting 11/bench in the match set up screen. Hopefully this will be looked at these are just a few bits I’ve noticed. Hopefully we’ll see updates but otherwise a great game and very much enjoying!

I agree with these comments. The tactics screen is not as useful as in touch 20. I am also having issues with setting up team and getting the right players for the right roles.

Endieposts Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Please allow those using the so-called "FM21 XBox Edition" on a PC - ie FM21 bought from the Microsoft Store - to import .fmf tactics files like every other version of the game. I don't hate myself enough to set up 16 separate set pieces manually from scratch: according to the achievement stats only 0.11% of FM21 users do. So at least allow those of us who are using FM21 XBox Edition on a PC (I only use it on a PC) to import the same tactics files as every other version of the game. Or advertise it as crippleware, because I'd have gone to the steam store if I'd known that the Microsoft Store version was cut-down functionality. Some people have claimed that this is because all saved tactics are now saved in the cloud. This is wrong: using FM21 XBox Edition on the PC you can load and save tactics files from the local disk. But the insane decision has been made to use an incompatible file format - .tac instead of .fmf - which of course nobody anywhere offers as downloads.
