Lucas78 Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 (edited) Uhh...Wait a second folks: maybe I'm a bit out of the loop but isn't the Xbox edition (PC Gamepass Version), at least for us long-time FMT players who have been playing on the PC, kinda like a dream coming true? Streamlined just the previous FMT editions, but now, AT LONG LAST with a working pre-game editor so all the real data mods can be used in FMT too.

Lucas78 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 Now you can finally modify stuff just like the "full fat" version of FM beside competition names or graphics. From being able to change "Zebre" to "Juventus" in italian serie A (yup, minor stuff like that, but still), but also having the possibility to apply lots of interesting addons, like new leagues, modifications to transfer markets and other dynamics etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas78 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 Sigh, yeah, spoke too soon; infact, looks like we still don't have the editor for the xbox edition, beside all the hellish steps to actually have access to the game files because of the dumb microsoft permission system. But yeah, maybe ONE DAY Sports Interactive will finally understand the importance of having the editor for the slimmed down version too and make it work, at least on the PC (yeah, cross-platform compatibility may get disabled because of console limitations and whatnot, but the important thing is letting the customer know of that limitation). 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burty76 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 Well I finally got into the Xbox version on the iPad, and while it’s pretty similar to the Touch version, it’s nowhere near as good. The screen touch is patchy, often opening the team or player etc below the one you want. You see less data on screen, and the tactics screen in particular suffers for this. Despite having decent WiFi, I get frequent network connection issues. Won’t be able to play it when travelling either. In short, it’s a worse product, but for £132 per year not £20. So this is the end of a long history for me with SI, FM and this forum. I’ll keep playing Touch 21 until the data gets too out of date, then that’s it. Such a shame that a fantastic product, the perfect level of detail and an interface that worked so well on tablets, has been abandoned. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus it’s not very stable think a beta of game pass Xbox version would have been a lot better, as teething problems could’ve been sorted for full release.

Popular Post Muttley84 Posted November 12, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 12, 2021 So on FM22 Xbox on PC you cannot: - load tactics into the game - apply filters into the game - load more than 10 leagues - use customization and fixes It also keeps crashing and moving way way more slower than FM21 Touch...

ronaldinjooo Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 People always saying fifa buying each year is a stupid thing to do, because the improvements of last years edition is barely there.. But this years FM version is almost the same as the 21 version right? No more seasons to play, no more leagues to select just 10. I dont know why i should by this years version. I've played it on gamepass, because i still had 2 weeks left, but i think im gonna let this year past, and stick it with FM21.... 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob73 Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 I finally managed to get the game running on the I pad.. few things immediately come to mind. Yes you can enable the touch control, but they are a pain in the a.. It is difficult to do normal things, for example moving a young player from development to the first squad, after a day I am still trying to find the window to do that dragging players on the pitch when making a sub, if a player is near the touch controls good luck with that and many times it selects the players you don't want. adjusting the camera's zoom..it just won't let me do it what I don't understand is that there are few functions that still work as touch control, was it really so damned difficult and expensive to make it all touch screen also for the xbox edition? the over all experience is nowhere near as good and smooth as it was with fm21 touch, everything takes so long to figure out and I didn't even try yet to go into the transfer market... I insist..was it really so hard to make it all touch screen ? Was it really so hard to give the tablet players the option of simply buying an update from fmt21 so they could at least have an option and make money anyway? I am not a businessman, but by providing the update option SI would have still sold the copies for the ones willing to buy the newest version with the changes and yet , not lose customers willing to accept not being able to buy the new one , but still ok with paying for an update of the 2021's version..why they haven't done it's beyond me. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kccircle Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 Wonder if the difficult decision to not have FMT is still seen as a positive decision at SI Towers. I was gifted FM22 for my birthday but played until the start of a first season. Found myself downloading FM12, Out of the Park Baseball and had a look at older FMTs. Reverted back to FMT21.

Away to get around it would be, having a standard FM and an create your own game version in the main menu, this could be done by simply clicking the modules you want to be involved in, staff etc could be like Touch was one staff to be selected for all departments. In turn they could then use the skin of Xbox version. I know people will say you can already do this, but it’s so cluttered the staff instructions it’s not easy to find in full FM. This would also mean pc players of FM touch can pick and chose what they want. Meaning it’s more of a consumer personalised game. This in turn will give people the chance to experience Football manager the way they want too. And get the all important editor!

birkelse Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Would like to return to FM touch 21 or Fm Classic. First time since 1998, I do not have a long term save game. I play a little versus games these days. You are welcome to throw a chat function on the match page, so you can chat with people. The built-in chat is a nightmare.

zakbrown96 Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Don’t see it happening, The fact it’s an Microsoft only game now In terms of Xbox store ( not counting switch) makes me think they’ve signed an legal agreement for exclusivity, let’s be honest playing it via a stream cast is awful couldn’t get into it at all, Just the lag and needing internet all the time, it defeats the objective of portable. The Tablet market is getting bigger all the time and the tech. The main problem was marketing when it came to FM touch in my own personal view, You’d only find out features when the beta came out or when the tablet version released, the game never seemed to get the same love as FM mobile does. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's me in a nutshell. Either a) I'm stuck with an outdated version playing FMT 21 for as long as I can tolerate it. Unfortunately, FMT has never been popular enough to get unofficial database updates like full fat version gets. b) I force myself to play full fat with a maximum amount of delegating stuff to the assistant + using continue timeout (which I use on FMT anyway) c) I never play any FM version ever again.

Keyzer Soze Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 (edited) I'm still playing FMT21 in my android tablet and having fun. Of course it would be nice to have a save game with the transfers up to date, but in any save after 4 or 5 seasons, that point doesn't matter anymore. I have no intentions of buying FM23 because i dont have the time to play the full fat version. I agree with the others users that doubt that FMT will return to Android/IOS tablets. It's not usual for companies to go back in these kind of decisions. But, by looking at the FMT foruns, it seems that the path they choose didn't bring more players for the touch version.... but i could be wrong.

I've played FMT21 until recently, but it's already getting out of date and it's harder to start a new save. Also, I now play FM22 on STEAM DECK, and it is great, but is not possible to play FM XBOX Edition natively. Hopefully someone at SIGAMES will give us the chance to have an FMT again soon. I look now at the 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021FMT editions and realize they were the best football games I have ever played. I really miss that feeling and the incredible saves I played on PC and tablet. The skins, gameplay... Everything was perfect.

The _Captain Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 I feel that it is Microsoft that is behind this. Fm touch could just as easily work on the PlayStation. But as soon as you take the MS$ brand it with xbox and remove it from the two biggest pc gaming market places, it won't be coming back. Why can't you make an orphaned version of FM touch, for us players on Macintosh, Linux etc? Rather than forcing us into the Microsoft ecosystem. We don't need cross play or azure support.

santy001 Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 Personally I imagine that developing for Xbox is much more closely related to PC given they're both Microsoft operating systems. Which is why the Xbox version appears on PC as a more streamlined version. But for Touch, the sad reality is it had reached a point where it was either no longer commercially viable or had become too burdensome on the company to sustain in that cost-benefit analysis mentioned in the first post of this thread. I think there is the scope to recreate the Touch experience through the main game and have all the benefits Touch missed out on (custom data for example) but its probably an area where SI need more ideas and inputs on how to get it right. I do spend quite a bit of time thinking about this as for network games in some regards Touch was unmatched. My current ideas lilt between a preset bundle of Touch-esc backroom settings/delegations or perhaps something like a rule engine being built into the game and make these settings saveable like a tactic so the community could reach a consensus on a good group of settings for different gameplay. This could draw upon a lot of stuff already in the game kind of like the disciplinary settings and delegation but through a centralised screen.

But for Touch, the sad reality is it had reached a point where it was either no longer commercially viable or had become too burdensome on the company to sustain in that cost-benefit analysis mentioned in the first post of this thread. I think there is the scope to recreate the Touch experience through the main game and have all the benefits Touch missed out on (custom data for example) but its probably an area where SI need more ideas and inputs on how to get it right. I do spend quite a bit of time thinking about this as for network games in some regards Touch was unmatched. My current ideas lilt between a preset bundle of Touch-esc backroom settings/delegations or perhaps something like a rule engine being built into the game and make these settings saveable like a tactic so the community could reach a consensus on a good group of settings for different gameplay. This could draw upon a lot of stuff already in the game kind of like the disciplinary settings and delegation but through a centralised screen. Thank you for your response. Your suggestions are spot on and actually should be implemented. As of right now it feels players are shoehorned to either playing the full fat fm (PC) or go Xbox Edition Microsoft. I think embedding Touch to how it first started could be the answer and as you've stated can eliminate the editor issue we've had for many years. Multiplayer was indeed a blast to playthrough using Touch. It literally takes 4-6hrs on Full fat fm (online save) to get into the first game! Whether these changes will be made I'm not sure. I would have this than cater to a headline feature that might not go down so well. Edited August 25, 2022 by Bdare Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEO-BAHAMUT- Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 In my opinions SI have really missed a trick by getting rid of support FMT for tablet. It is certainly the way forward for so many players like myself who don't have the time to sit at a PC all day. A tablet is something that the majority of people own these days. I do have a Nintendo Switch and did purchase FM22 thinking it could be "ok".... I wasnt even an hour in before I decided its terrible. Also for anyone still playing FMT21, how on earth are you playing it with so many bugs. Is the scroll bug still a thing (jerky scrolling). - The best bug which did actually get fixed was when results were different for the AI to what was being shown in latest scores.
