MÚSECA 1+1/2 (AC)

Whoa! Nice video! MÚSECA is looking great! I'd like to play it someday...there's hope for when a Round1 location opens in my state...if it does... :/

---

It appears Round １does not give even a single shit about the east coast... we can only dream

Really? There's a Round1 in Massachussetts, I believe...

Also, that MUSECA gameplay video revealed that there are more characters than just the ones in the introduction video...I'm diggin' the 3rd one in the gameplay video. She reminds me of Schall from Pop'n Music.

Yea... i already mentioned that in my other post. And... Massachusetts doesn't count

Why doesn't it?

---

I dunno i was butthurt cause i didn't know there was one... because well.. it isn't here yet. But you win for now

That reminds me, has any Round1 location received a machine yet? I imagine City of Industry or Lakewood getting it before any of the other west coast locations just before or after Christmas at the earliest.

Spent the better part of Monday at the Lakewood location. No Museca machines yet (unless they came today).

Obviously you haven't glanced at Round 1's wiki page:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round_One_Entertainment

They plan to put 3 Round 1's here on the east when I saw it. The one in Taunton, Massachusetts is set to open December 26th this year, and hype about it. The other 2 are gonna be in Pennsylvania which opens early next year and New York which was delayed till 2017. Do your research guys.

I think he means the REAL east coast a.k.a a little more southern than New York, Penn, and Boston.

Or it could just be me wanting one to pop up in Florida but that may not happen until 2020. Calling it now hahaha.

pffffffffffffffffft

If anyone who's lazy wants the specifics on R1's expansion plans, I recommend reading page 14 of this document: http://www.round1.co.jp/company/ir/pdf/english/20150521_eng.pdf

I find it weird that their plan is to mostly open in smaller cities (i.e. Concord, CA and Bensalem, PA) rather than bigger cities, but it seems to be working if they can open 7 stores a year. 8I

The Grapevine TX location is missing from that document, but it's slated to open early 2016. Denver is also missing from there as well.

RemyWiki says 5 HinaBitter songs will be added to MÚSECA on 12/29/15:

neko*neko / 日向美ビタースイーツ♪
激アツ☆マジヤバ☆チアガール / 日向美ビタースイーツ♪
漆黒のスペシャルプリンセスサンデー / 日向美ビタースイーツ♪
地方創生☆チクワクティクス / 日向美ビタースイーツ♪
フラッター現象の顛末と単一指向性の感情論 / 日向美ビタースイーツ♪

I wonder if the HinaBitter characters will be added, too...

Hinabita's characters are added as graphica too, BUT, you can only get them through redeem codes when buying the new cd

Honestly, I have been enjoying the game a lot more than I thought I would initially.
And it's a lot harder than I imagined (props to the scrolling speed fluctuating depending on your graphicas)
The scoring system is annoying, but well, at least tournaments are held with sets graphica so everyone is under the same rule

I never understood what all the Grafica stuff does. They modifiy some aspect of the song or is just merely cosmetic?

pretty sure they have buffs like score and lifebar, from what i've read

Round 1 has confirmed via Facebook that Museca will be added sometime Mid-January.

Basically, each graphica has 4 stats.
Life Support (increase your gauge and recovery), Item Drop (increase chance of getting items and game-money), Score (Increase max-score) and Risk (how much you lose life per miss)
Add to this fluctuations when activated such a speed increase/ lanes getting flat/ curves increasing, ect...

The current on-going preliminaries for the KAC as set-graphicas, so the max-score is the same for everyone.
And I must say it's really fun. It's actually like playing pop'n on ojama mode.
First time in a while I'm really trying my best to increase my score during preliminaries (ranked 30th at the moment, pretty happy about it)

Here's what happens when you play Mùseca and you don't use any Grafica. I must say, that red thing is weird.
