I think it would be cool to have DDR A vs MAX. That game had a very solid soundtrack with some of the best Dancemania tracks, we could get HD background movies a la CuzcoBlocko, and they don't have to worry about bringing back that many songs from previous games since DDRMAX refreshed the song list with no returning songs. Also, I need to see So Deep finally get an official 14 rating, and I want to see some intense new ITG-style challenge charts for many of the songs.

inb4 max 300 A-Special

actually, inb4 A-Specials. I can definitely see those being a thing.

"Sleep cancelled due to COVID-19."
I'd like A-Special charts.

On the condition that they are actually fun charts instead of stuff like MAX 300 X-Special (though to be fair MAX 300 is so iconic they were pretty much doomed), or MAXX UNLIMITED X-Special (no seriously do people actually like that chart?).

Also, it'd be cool to do them for SuperNOVA-2014 songs (like how X-Special was 1stMIX-EXTREME).
But then I think about the idea of NGO (A-Special) and then pls nope I don't want that.

Seeing how it was based off the hardest songs of 1st-5thMIX, and then based off of Extra and Encore Extra/One More Extra for MAX-EXTREME, I can come up with an idea why doing it X-Special style is a really bad idea: most boss songs from SuperNOVA to SuperNOVA 2 were already kind of either overstepped (Fascination MAXX in particular, but it's a bit present in some others), or pattern ridiculous (PARANOiA ~HADES~, NGO, Pluto Relinquish, Healing-D-Vision's you know which stream), and really we don't need those to get worse.

You could do some pretty fun A-Special charts if you arbitrarily picked charts from the past.
Good candidates for hard A-Special charts:
A (lol)
Xenon (harder to step well, but it could be done)
AA (lol part 2)
RED ZONE (why yes, there might be a bias towards IIDX songs)
Xepher (originally underwhelming boss song that could be difficult)

Also, total coincidence, but I like how all of these are from the AC DDR SuperNOVA Boss Rush Episode III.

some good candidates for the A-Special concept:

-Unreal (would be interesting to see a chart for this that was streamy rather than jumpy)
-volcano
-Shiny World
-POSSESSION

Did people liked the X-Specials? I recall all but like maybe 1 or 2 of the charts being complete ass. So I have no idea why anyone would want new ones.

With the case of songs like Unreal, Shiny World, and volcano. Just add Challenge charts.

I'd like some old-school style tracks tbh. Something that sounds like it would fit on a Club Ver.

Approximately nobody asked for this song to be included. Least popular decision by the Japanese since Nintendo released the Wii U.

The Maxes sucked, Kakumei sucked, I like Paranoia and Healing Vision and I'm indifferent to the rest.

I would be happy if all special charts were gotten rid of (X-Special, Air/Freeze/etc. specials) as well as all shock arrow challenge charts, and just add a song option to add shock arrows to any chart if a player desires.

I'd be ok with a Hiphop song (either a new song or some stuff from beatmania/early IIDX). Or instead, some crossovers from CORE REMIX (Beginning of Life would be interesting, since it's more complex than the original).

Ok, so if the picture is correct, this is the analysis:
MAX. (Period)'s groove radar values:
We don't know CHAOS, but I assume it's the same.
Freeze is 8 in both 2014 and A.
Air is 56 in 2014 and 54 in A.
Voltage is 101 in 2014 and 100 in A.
Stream is 153 in 2014 and 142 in A. (!!!)

I can't read Japanese, but I see the english letters "DP" in the quote, which usually means "Double Play", so this means it looks like the Groove Radar has been changed in doubles mode.

Which suddenly makes the change to "Stream" make sense - I think they were figuring EGOISM's 270 Stream on Challange Doubles was getting kind of ridiculous to look at.

Not sure about the Voltage and Air changes, though. I wonder...

Well, wasn't it a thing that they kept changing the algorithms because of songs pushing the limits further? It'd be interesting if instead of it being because of EGOISM 440 it would be because of some new song coming in an event later on or something that'll push it even more.

Try 2 Luv U has a new jacket.

Chronos now uses its Gitadora and jubeat jacket with the song title on it as well.

I'd like A-Special charts.

Thinking of the Supernova charts alone that I gave a Challenge chart...

AA - 17
CSFIL (super euro version) - 12
Curus - 13
My Only Shining Star - 12
No. 13 - 18
Rainbow Rainbow -14
Red Zone - 17

Not to forget Nijiiro already got a Challenge chart in X2 and if Konami imported Murmur Twins and Maximizer Challenge from Universe, that'd be super as well.
