Football Manager 2021
More Football Manager 2021 Details Revealed - Interaction, Matchday, Recruitment & End of Season Experience
Football Manager 2021 news has been coming in hot and heavy lately. Today, SEGA and Sports Interactive released 4 new blogs.
With this revamp, there are some new interactions and improvements to the existing interactions. So, whilst some of the interactions you see will be familiar, there are others which you won’t have seen before, and some that have been tailored specifically to the new systems. And there are also significant improvements to the AI and the way the characters in game react to the interactions – not just you as a manager and the journalists you’ll interact with, but the board too, who offer feedback via your press officer – all of which sets things up nicely for future versions of the game and expansions in the future.
There are plenty of visual improvements to the match action as well. We’ve redesigned the match UI and introduced a modern broadcast feel to the pre- and post-match cutscenes and transitions. The animation engine has been significantly enhanced ensuring that players move more smoothly and the overall look of the match has been given a lift with improved lighting, new pitchside elements and more stadium pieces just some of the improvements in this area.
New staff roles, meetings, and interactions all add to an updated, more realistic in-game transfer landscape to ensure that FM21 reflects the life and times of a modern manager in today’s market.
A few days after that final game of the season, you’ll be transported into a brand-new environment. Taking you out of your inbox and into a full season review where you’ll browse through the highs and lows of the campaign. You’ll go on this journey through the review no matter how successful your season has been, it’s not just for the lucky few that lifted trophies. Here, not only will you get to revisit games but you’ll see your year in snapshot – reviewing your best XI, transfer business and significant results.
