Now players can keep an eye on the whole tactic situation for the time needed to choose what to do on the pitch, and they can watch cinematic shots of all players’ actions. All that should be enough to avoid that messy and tiresome style of playing that in Italy we call <em>long live the parson</em>, in which all players become frenzy to catch and kick the ball everywhere and as soon as possible.<br /></div><br /><div align="justify">Now the players can also enjoy: the soundtracks, which make the exploration of the virtual world an happier experience; the redesigned mini-games, which now allow players to bet on Experience Points; a bit more ubiquitous gaming experience, being the <strong>Linux (Ubuntu)</strong> and <strong>MacOSX (Leopard)</strong> game clients made available.<br /></div><br /><div align="justify">Last but not least, <strong>this Beta version has been translated in English</strong>, together with the <strong>English version of this Blog</strong>, so throwing Football Stars Online towards the global marketplace.<br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A8OfXeo1ZgM/TAd_M_eBOKI/AAAAAAAAAIk/0jvCp8gAJs8/s1600/weblog-master.png"><img style="BORDER: 0px; MARGIN: 0px 10px 0px 10px; WIDTH: 100px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 100px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5478487332891998370" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A8OfXeo1ZgM/TAd_M_eBOKI/AAAAAAAAAIk/0jvCp8gAJs8/s200/weblog-master.png" /></a></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2819646604200426048-5035613356962619651?l=pervactive-en.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Giuliano Pistolesihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04958421080904524704noreply@blogger.com0
