SOUND VOLTEX III GRAVITY WARS (AC/PC)

A couple drawings of what the new features will be like.

Knobs don't seem to adhere to the boundaries of the track anymore. And that may be a IIDX/DDR style FAST/SLOW thing I'm seeing in the first image. And are those long BT notes inside an FX note? Oh dear... Also, it seems like crashes can start from the middle of the track now.

All of this is speculation on my part, considering I can't read or speak Japanese.

SDVX I.V. -Medical Practitioner-

Now with 1000% less American and European blood!

Can't wait for that, also 'charts can zoom in and out' does this mean we can zoom in and out of rasis?

Not exactly sure what this is but it's probably pertaining to the location test.

Some new songs:

Somebody's made a simulator to emulate the new SDVXIII features.



I really hope it's not actually like this. That would be horrifying.

Pretty cool imo, even though I highly doubt it's actually like that.

moves WAY too much

Location test #2 will start October 3 and run until October 5.

Made an account since I played it.

Regarding the first image, at the test location, there were two cabinets. One was regular (Cabinet A) that did not dispense cards. The other cabinet (Cabinet B) dispenses cards, but you have to pay extra (400 yen, about 4 dollars.) Had to pay double the usual price to play though (200 yen or two dollars to play instead of 100 yen)

For the video, its pretty much like that EXCEPT it does not keep zooming in and out to that extreme. There are certain parts in the chart where it zooms in and out.

That's slightly re-assuring. It's one thing for the chart to zoom in and out during certain sections of said chart, but it is a whole different playing field if it keeps doing it at random intervals during the song. Feels like a gimmick that shouldn't really be a gimmick.

Then again, this whole game has a lot of pretty gimmicky features to it :v

Oh, and welcome to the site

Thanks!

Also an image of a card I got. Wanted RASIS though.

Everyone wants RASIS

Cool thing, thanks for the info, Bull! I'm relieved to know that the zoom isn't that bad, too. I don't assume you have a scanner somewhere to get us a nice hi-res image of that card you got?

A third location test has been announced at Round1 Umeda in Osaka, from 10/10-10/13.

Unfortunately no.

Also I love how the test locations are still taking place despite the previous typhoon hitting us and the next typhoon that can potentially hit us.

All the more reason to play! There's great songs for this occasion, such as Cosmic Hurricane, INAZUMA, Snow Storm, Sakura Storm, Windy Fairy, Blust of Wind, Lovely Storm, and Can't Stop the Rain (not sure if any of those are on SDVX, however).

New (license) song was revealed at the third location test:
最速最高シャッターガール / ビートまりお（COOL&CREATE） / 160 bpm / 5 / 11 / 15

Also, the fourth location test will be held from October 17 to October 19, at Round One in Tenjin, Fukuoka. haha whoops this was all on the front page

Oh yeah, anyone saw that new RASIS design? Feels really different!

Is it the same as on the promotional posters they had standing around at the first location test?
If so then yeah, it seems a lot more... serious, I guess? Then again, the whole game seems to be made up to feel more serious for some reason.

Voltex II last day has been announced for 11/12
So, that means Voltex III is coming on the 13th!
Yes!

they better do a stream to show off the gameplay like they did with pendual

Haha so sad. I took a small vacation and will miss the release of SDVX III (and the final goodbye SDVX II bonus) After playing SDVX II a lot, I'm gonna kinda miss it.
