iAlwaysWin Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 (edited) Just to continue the penalties debate in FM21, in real life there has been so far 41 penalties awarded in the premier league this season in 9 matches, Leiciester have been awarded 8, so going by that theres some issues in football manager regarding this as the average is far to low, you really only need to play the game to realize this, assuming yous actually play your own game and have in house game testers.

You can fully zoom on the sideline view and set up a perfect 'FIFA' angle now. And the data analyst camera (at last) looks great. In fact, those who wish the 2D stuff to be more immersive, if you get the height and zoom right on the data analyst view this year, it's a terrific alternative, particularly now that it looks better. *from the beta That's promising. I have been playing in 2D for all those years and it seems like a good alternative, like last game's VAR offside camera. Haven't bought the game yet though and would really like to see if that's the case, could anyone post a screenshot from this camera angle please? Cheers.

Icy Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Only issue I have seen so far in the ME that was there past year as well is the amount of offsides from wide defenders vs real life, even on support duty and with balanced mentality with no overlaps, they are way too aggressive.

Siven Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Same feedback as i posted in Beta thread. nothing has changed, so i will post it here too now that the game has fully released. My feedback on the Match Screen Images below. Playing at 1920x1080. Match stats + notable events section is ok. but i would like to cutomize which match stats show up. Dugout section, the only info i liked in this was the minor injury notifications.......and thats only because they dont show at all on any other section! Would rather replace this tbh. Injuries (orange icons) need to show up on the Liverpool (your team) stats section like they did in previous versions! Visualiser section....meh. I would rather be able to resize this. Infact all section should be able to be resized, top to bottom, and dragged left to right to show more info, like the previous versions team stats section, wher you could lengthen it to show body language. Opponents formation section, i like the amount of info, name, role, rating, condition, body language, its replaced having the opponents stats on screen for me.....but it also looks unfinished? Maybe it the lack of box around the name? unsure. Liverpool (your team) Stats section. Needs to show minor (orange) injuries! Also would love to have body language on here too, so all relevant info is in one place. Like previous version did. The bottom part i barely use tbh. The layout of the Liverpool (your stats) Stats section is far better (apart from lack of body language) than the bottom section for me. I think a top to bottom list has better readability than side to side as it as at the bottom of the screen. I would rather have the Mentality, Instructions and Shouts up at the top of the screen and remove all the players at the bottom. Maybe i'll become used to it, but so far i havent. I could hide it, but then it also hides the mentality and shouts UI. For reference, below is how i had FM20 match screen. Not perfect, but i had most of the Info i wanted, though again, i wished i could have more match stats shown. Also all the options at the top of the screen, nice and easy to see and select. Team Talks: I understand why this has changed due to the many new gestures added, though im not a fan of having the players split all over the screen. I think if all players on the pitch where in the list on the left, and all subs on right, with none along the top would have looked better imo. Without them at the top, they could be nudged up and 11 players would fit very nicely, at least at 1920x1080. The Interview screen has so much wasted space in the prime area of the screen, the middle. The previous FM versions used the screen space far better. Thats all for now. I hope things change, but im old and cynical, so i dont think they will. After all that, i will say that the Match Engine seems fantastic from what i've played so far. So kudos to you for that. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nahuelzn Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Maybe the changes in morale affects the Match Engine? Players trying more long balls and shots because they're more confident?

Yes, very disappointing - I scrapped my beta save today as it just felt like the goal posts moved with full release and it became a different save. I was enjoying it massively - couldn't wait to finish work and play every day - but was just getting super-frustrated with it since full release. The "external factors we identified that filtered through to the matchday" have given me a very different game of football when I watch - a big backwards step for me. I don't care about a change list - I just want to give my feedback - and basically that's I'm back in FM19, which is a big downer for me after such a promising beta. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

anagain Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 (edited) 10 hours ago, Mikal said: I posted back on page 12 a little tip to do what you wanted @craiigman(because it's what I was desperate to do). "A little tip for those who are as perplexed as me at only being able to review the player and analytical stats during the 'backroom HT advice' as soon as the first half ends, and not being able to review at any point during HT. When you get to the HT backroom advice where you can review the data (the page as soon as the half finishes), and you want to make tactical changes based on these, press the 'Tactics & Subs' option bottom left. This will bring up your tactics, make some changes, and if you decide you want to review the data again (as I believe we should be inclined to do), then just press BACKSPACE and it will take you back to the HT advice page. From here you can review the data again and go back to tactics (bottom left) and make changes. IMO I now need to read the "Dressing Room" page as essentially start second half and I need to make any tactical adjustments before that where I have access to the information I want." Do you know if this works regarding the team talk to tactics and back to team talk screens? I assume not. It is ludicrous that this has been altered in this way this year. There are some bizarre UI changes in FM21. I suppose it is all part of the change to the match UI, but I don't mind the match screen. I mind the little changes to the UI in other areas that just don't make sense, they just skimp on years of FM development Not being able to move between screens at half time, no way to look at past chat histories with a player. Of course, I bugged both but they are both falling down the bug forum pages because they don't appear to have been acknowledged by SI. An acknowledgement to say SI are aware of them would be nice. I don't like to bump threads, but I'm considering it. I want to start a long term save, but I can't with the UI as it is in these areas. It bugs me and ruins my enjoyment of the game. Let's hope we get patch 1 soon, and that they do fix these UI issues. Anyone remember when patch 1 was last year? Think I might go back to my Koper save from FM20. It's a shame that I don't get to enjoy the great FM21 match engine, but I had few qualms with FM20's engine anyway. Play that and Cyberpunk and hopefully FM will be compatible with my FM OCD by then. It's a shame the UI has gone backwards in areas. I appreciate we've all suffered covid, but to remove options seems baffling to me.
