This Football Drama’s update brings night matches, that are part of an overall improved management of weather conditions (can be foggy, rainy, stormy, and it can even snow) that influence your team performance depending on overall stamina.
One nice new feature that we found can improve a lot the gameplay experience for some players is the “sped up mode” (thank you for the feedback), available in Settings, that speeds up the matches gameplay so that the flow from deciding between a cautious and a risky move is quicker. This option also removes the enter fields animations and the replays.
We also introduced some post-processing for the graphics of the whole application, which results in nicer animations..
And finally, a smoke-free logo...

This update is "major" because we improved several aspects of the game also in consequence of the feedback received.
*WILL NOT WORK ON iPad Mini 2, and iPad Mini 3, iPad Air 1, iPhone 5S.*
Now if you play Football Drama on a high-resolution tablet, you can play it in landscape mode, getting the additional features available on HD layouts.
The other main updates are:
- After every training and for each successful card played, you get detailed feedback about your team's state compared with your current opponent. This is something several players requested. This reveals a lot of background, so we tried to make it so that it does not "break the magic" of how matches go.
- We introduced more variations in the narrative (e.g. press meetings), with more integration between matches and Rocco's life, and removed some end of match loops ("handshakegate") after the first championship weeks.
Minor improvements:
- Action replays improved.
- Improved the AI on some match actions.
- Minor font size issues in non-English versions.

Football Drama's attack actions now have a "slo-mo replay" feature at their end. We think its quite cool :-)
*WILL NOT WORK ON iPad Mini 2, and iPad Mini 3, iPad Air 1, iPhone 5S.*
Also fixed a bug on the home launch buttons if clicked furiously.
Notice that both for the replay, end of action, and also when you are playing the two-choices turns in the field if you tap in the middle of the screen, the action will end or speed up depending on the context, and this can change the game-feel considerably if you like faster matches.

WILL NOT WORK ON iPad Mini 2, and iPad Mini 3, iPad Air 1, iPhone 5S.
- Fixed a bug in the Russian version that stopped the game at certain dialogues.
- Little improvements in the dialogues' language and in translations.
WARNING
In this release we have made explicit the requirement that "Metal" (a technology) must be supported by your device; the former OS version requirement was already doing that, but it included some iPad Air models that do not support "Metal Shaders". Our new restricted requirement will not solve the problem for those iPad Air because formally they do support Metal but actually they do not work with Metal Shaders, and there is no support for the distinction. Sorry for that.

These are the improvements/changes/fixes:
- We added a tutorial step in the second half to tell about the "tap or click in the field centre" just after you made a choice in the match that speeds up the whole thing. For players that like faster matches, it changes the whole feeling of the game.
- We removed the (sometimes repetitive) meeting with the president when nothing crucial is happening (i.e. he is not furious, you are not fired, you didn't win the championship). This too seems a small change but makes the whole flow more natural.
- We did a lot of improvements in the translation, in particular in French (Charlene Lebrun), Italian (Luca Papale), Chinese (Melanie Luo), Russian.
- BUG FIX: We fixed a bug in the rendering of the German and Russian Oracle dialogue that crashed the game.
- BUG FIX: There was an occasional problem in saving the state of matches (not involving you) of the current week.
