CROSS×BEATS (iOS)

You realize that's still a moot point, right? That strategy isn't going to be useful unless you control both accounts, since a ULC only lasts for 20 minutes.

Which means you need and iphone + iPad in order to do it. Personally I don't do it, but know a couple of cases. In my personal case WYCMN ULCs are quite usefuls since my skills are not "full-pro". However, I mainly use Support Points for those rewards I didn't get on several Events (mainly game skins). I buy 3 Ticket Sale Big (or 2 777 Sale) every 3 or 4 RSF, but my thought right now is that if you buy such, then the Rate for RanSai just drop even more, so I try to avoid it or buy it on the very last moments within the event.

Also... told you Poochy, you got it anyway. Congrats!

I had a chance to play Aerial and I lost the Unlock Challenge.

I am just very salty right now. Really tempted to quit.

As a rule of thumb, I always tried RSF either on Standard on Hard so if I got a One Chance I had at least a few possibilities to obtain it. My tries on Master could be counted with a single hand, as it is too risky.

That's exactly what I did. I always did it Standard. I'd wait until I have 10 tickets and once it reached 5 i'd stop.

Turns out i'll need 15 tickets to even clear a song. Tbh once my whole bitching about this is over, this'll probably just encourage me even more to try hard in this festival and get one last thing.

Update and Maintenance incoming

According to News, game update 1.11.01 is on the way and a previous maintenance will take place on June 26th, from 9:30 until 20:00 (GMT/UTC + 09:00 - Japanese timezone). Also, due to maintenance, Ransai and Ticket Sale Big have been re-scheduled.

Remember to check app store when CxB update becomes available.

For those that are lazy that roughly equates to 'Murica

8:30 PM - 7:00 AM

Version 1.11.00 is now available on the App Store.

Maintenance is over. Will post more updates of what has happened to the interface, songlist, or gameplay.

Update: Nothing has been granted or effected towards the player.

The menu may seem glitchy and on tilt when you first download. Try removing the app from your quick options thing and try to play cxb from there. Should be downloading again at 93%? Some of the skins seemed to have been reset. At least the notification of it being new, you should still have your skins.

The updates are mostly just for the updated new version. Also the big ticket sale and ransei random festival have been pushed back a single day, 6/29 at the typical 24:59 timing. This is all done on iPhone4 i'm not quite sure what iPad users are experiencing but this is from my perspective so far.

You missed something kind of big there cowtao.
Song count 147 => 153

They must be planning something big since we got 6 songs in one update instead of the usual 3.
Also kind of hype to see what they have in store for song #150.

iPad user here.

That "Now Downloading" screen took forever. Skin Theme was reset and every other skin had the "new" label. Stability seems fine.

6 more songs? Woohoo. Maybe something big is coming.

I hope these aren't more licenses. I also hope that we're at least getting Satellite System and MEGALOMAN[i]A.

Ransai is going to end in a few days, and this is usually time when we get event news so we should be hearing more pretty soon.

It's also worth noting that an arcade flyer announced that they'll have cbREV. around the end of June, so this may be a huge celebration for that.

There is enough in that "update" to fit all the Rev songs before DEEP PURPLE which was the primary songlist before the 2nd Location Test.

It'd make sense, Naoki loves bringing in older artists and more GLAY to the table. Deicida of silence still remains a mystery and if Naoki is planning something with it, it's either now or he's pushing it back another update.

So i herd u liek remixes...

Seriously though, I'm looking forward to that Designed World remix; The preview sounds pretty good.

What a disappointment. Well, we still have three other songs unaccounted for...

Unfortunately I can't take a lineout of KING STUN / JUPITRIS until the 5th as I'm on a vacation and none of the computers my family brought have a microphone port. Really frustrating but I'm glad I'll at least have the chance before it ends up in RSF.

And speaking of KING STUN, it's extremely possible this could be a new "boss" song. JUPITRIS is a reference to the Gundam series like A×E×U×G, and if the song collection follows the usual order, it will end up as #150. (#50 and #100 were Z[i] and Crisscrosser.) It's too bad these charts are going to be nerfed down a whole difficulty for the contest.

^ I'll try to get it when it inevitably becomes the new RSF exclusive.

For some reason the app is now really slow to load on my iPad. Every time it starts up it starts redownloading from around 94~97% or so, and then the news takes forever to pop up. Yet on my alt iPhone account, there's no slowness whatsoever. Anyone else see this, or is it just me?

Also note that the upcoming event is High Score Attack, i.e. highest score from each song totaled up, not grinding out points.

Me and Tomoe have been experiencing the same thing that's been happening. Hopefully they make a patch to fix this soon.

If it's a High Score, it's going to be brutal for me to get Voice of House mastered in time. Hopefully I do. I'm gonna do some math and see what approximately you can get so you can better attack the coming event. Will bump this.

Did some stuff. For going for the songs here's the general score ratio I got.

(MASTER)
The Epic - 90ish% 35,000 / 98-100% 41,000
Voice of House (Remix) - 90ish% 29,000 / 98-100% 35,000-36,000
Designed World - 90ish% 30,000 / 98-100% 36,000-37,000

Bottom line fuck all those other songs. The Epic, where you at.

---

The app isn't slow to start for me, but it does take longer for the info box to appear. Kinda annoying, I just wanna play )= (i'm impatient)

Looks like there's a new news post acknowledging both bugs and saying it'll be fixed in the next update.
