Thankfully Konami has yet to take Bemani out behind the shed.

Location testing as we speak.

Info:

Theme: Trains. The promotional banner features Lilith and Iroha in conductor uniforms.
Some of the new songs have HELL CHARGE NOTES, which reduces your gauge when you don't hold CHARGE NOTES, and recovers it when you hold them. An indicator similar to previous CN marker next to the song will show which songs have HELL CHARGE NOTES.
New modifier introduced: ASSIST-EASY, which lowers clear border from 80% to 60%. Using this counts as an ASSIST CLEAR if a song is cleared.
ALL BEGINNER folder added.
On this folder, video previews for songs can now be seen at the music select screen.

Why 'Copula'?

"At its most basic level, it can be thought of as the linking of notes together to form a melody. "A copula is a rapid, connected discant..." However, it is often considered to be a particular type of polyphonic texture similar to organum, but with modal rhythm."

New Long Train Running!? Who knows, but it's DJ Mass Mad Izm*, it'll be awesome.

It's weirdly comforting to me that these games are still being developed.

lol, Hell Charge Notes sound dope. Is this the first new in-chart mechanic since Sirius? I'm very obviously out of the loop with IIDX.

I'm in for some HYBRID TWERK.

 

[opoth]

Pendual has a nice look to it, this not so much

 

[cj_iwakura]

Is Twerk even a genre? I don't even.

Losing KYAMISAMA ONEGAI hurts.

Bring Her Down was also one of Akira Yamaoka's most underrated tracks.

Pieced Sunday was always my favorite genre ¯\_(&#12484_/¯

Source? I'm sure Konami are locking it down with an iron fist, but maybe there's videos of the UI?

Hi, I'm contractually obligated to post in this thread.

I have felt that the game was lacking a transportation theme for some time (if anything, since Freeway Shuffle was put into Troopers), but of course I never said so anywhere until this has been revealed. Oh well.

Those pictures are from the current phase in Pendual, right?

Hell Charge Notes sound dope. Is this the first new in-chart mechanic since Sirius? I'm very obviously out of the loop with IIDX.

Sort of, depending on how you consider R-Random (fixed lane offset determined by player) to fit the definition.

10th Style was 11 years ago. What were you expecting.

TaQ's been done for a while, aside from the intermittent guest arrangement for Pop'n.
I do remember a few years back he completed his symphony 'Anteworte' and some IIDX fans caught wind that it was being performed at Carnegie Hall.

 

[linid0t]

I'm really liking the preview song (Routing). Sounds really upbeat, can't wait for the rest of the music to come out!

TaQ probably isn't ever going to come back to the series, but you can still keep track with music he's making.

He recently scored a short film:

Multiplayer copula sounds good.
