beatmania IIDX INFINITAS (PC)

it looks like a dao, yeah. don't really see a reason to get one if you already have an ASC, but damn it's nice. i'd wait for a price to jump on any hype train though.

also, the authenticity of this is questionable, but according to someone on sows, this is the subscription model announced on benama

i haven't watched it and don't plan to so i don't know if this is true, but if it is, holy shit

If that's true, then... er...

Yeah, Konami will be Konami.

---

Paying for a monthly subscription, then paying extra to play individual songs? Does not compute.

---

That guy made the post hours before the Benama ... so that whole comment is not true lol.

On the bright side, this is the first official controller to use USB and you don't need a PS2-to-USB converter to plug it into your computer to play LR2- err, I mean DJMAX-, no, I mean 02Jam- I mean Infinitas with. ;)

i love when people spread rumors )))

January distribution songs revealed:
• AIR RAID FROM THA UNDAGROUND / GUHROOVY
• Anisakis -somatic mutation type "Forza" / 朱雀
• Evans / DJ YOSHITAKA
• THE SAFARI / Lion Musashi
• V / TAKA
and more...

Players must have beatmania IIDX INFINITAS Basic Subscription during January to obtain the songs, players will keep the songs for consequent months. If in the event the player does not have the Basic Subscription for January, the songs will not be available until Konami decide to redistribute them.

*clap clap clap*

Thaaaaaaaat's Konami!

---

So these songs would be unavailable for people signing up in the middle of the month, or in February?
hooray

During January is fine, just not after.

Ahh, okay.

I also see art of Go Beyond!!, CHECKING YOU OUT, and ワルツ第17番 ト短調"大犬のワルツ" in the background of the news post, as well as two others I don't recognize.

That'd be moon_child and 雪月花, I suppose

---

So it'll be getting at least 10 songs, then. I somehow think that it'll be just those 10, though...Unless there'll be more added throughout the month. I hope it'll be more though because WHERE IS SESSION 1

also 5555th post yay

Isn't it the EXTRA STAGE in beatmaniaIIDX 17 SIRIUS? It's probably going to be unlockable.

In any case, I need to get my hands on the PASELI subscription before I lose my mind....I don't want to miss out on any songs.

---

But Bad Maniacs was the OMES and it's available by default...

Yeah, that. I'm not sure why Sirius doesn't at least have some other special extra stage if it doesn't have the original one.

I get having songs in a rotation but it's kind of unfair for people who can't get a subscription or have to cancel for some reason.
I know it says until Konami redistributes them but we all know they won't.

---

I guess that's just how they're going to keep people subbed. I've heard people say "Oh, well I'll just sub when the songlist is large enough to be worth it", which is fair. But now anyone who is planning on playing in the future will want to sub now. Even when they can't play.

I was predicting that they'd sell songpacks (more like expansions) on top of the monthly sub, since I thought the monthly sub was too low. If this 'free' monthly songpack trend is going to continue then the price of a sub just got even better. But they have those Infinitas Tickets too. I'm sure they'll keep using those to deliver exclusive songs or whatever after the KAC period ends.

20151201 songs: (44)

- Default songlist. (39)
*snip* Who cares, made the post too tall.

- DJ Point Unlocks (5)
200 DJP, 17058 SAYONARA HEAVEN
400 DJP, 17062 The Story Begins
800 DJP, 17040 Dazzlin' Darlin-AKIBA KOUBOU mix-
1600 DJP, 17055 SUIJYOUNOTEITOKU (Short mix from "Suikoden V")
3200 DJP**, 80001 3y3s(Long ver.)

NOTE: At launch day, 3y3s(Long ver.) was programmed to unlock at 3200 DJP; but this was impossible! In the 12/21 patch this unlock condition was removed. I don't see any way to unlock this song legitimately in the client. And hacking would get you banned, I hope.

By the way this spoiler information is free and easy. I didn't even have to decrypt anything. Videos are never encrypted, either, and people have been spoiling songs that way ever since 9th Style AC and Love <3 Shine.

I don't see VALSE DU GRANDE CHIEN. I like that 7A chart though.

I'm assuming the sound director for Infinitas is DJ Taka. It was never announced officially, but when the next 5 default songs are: Taka, Taka, Yoshitaka, Yoshitaka, GUHROOVY, I think it's obvious who is picking them. (Two of the four KAC songs are Taka and Yoshitaka again. Gee whiz.) DJ Taka did this in DDR X2, too. I'm not complaining, I love DJ Taka. I'm just saying the guy seems to really like his own music.

The graphic for it is the IIDX RED Parallel Rotation BGA, so that's likely for spiral galaxy -L.E.D. STYLE SPREADING PARTICLE BEAM MIX- as it was in the IIDX RED folder for that event.

Oh I see. Yeah, if they wanted to tease Valse then the Oinu overlays would be in there somewhere. (Like Setsugekka.)
