SUPERBEAT: XONiC |OT| Back to The DJMAX Roots - Now on PS4/XB1!

I can answer a few of these:

- More difficult than Dancing All Night, by quite a margin. That said, I think the spread in difficulty is a lot larger as well. You shouldn't have any problem getting through the easy songs on 4TRAX. Hard tracks will present some challenge but nothing insurmountable. The higher difficulties will be tough, though, and the world tour mode will crush you initially.

- The game plays with both buttons and touch controls. You are free to pick whichever option suits you, whether that be buttons only, touchscreen only, or a combination of the two. No special controllers.
 
Ok I bought and installed the three DLC packs but can't seem to find the songs in game? Where exactly is the DLC?

Edit: nevermind they werent showing up in 6 track for me for some reason but I see them in free style. :/ weird

You can just go back to song select from the pause menu if you lose your combo. You won't lose it unless you reach the score screen after the song. I did it right at the end of the song a few times while trying out some of the DLC songs today lol.
 
Is there a chance for a sale in europe too?

Can we expect more from the team? Are the sales ok?

Im afraid this sale is not coming to europe.

Sales are fine, and yes! there's more coming up, we have one or two things at the oven, but i can't disclose anything yet :)

Thanks for the quick reply. Will buy it for the regular price then and not be dissapointed because two days later the sale starts ;-)

Ok, I played through a couple of songs 4 and 6 Trax and made the first step at world tour. I like the game so far, but I have yet to adjust myself. Played Persona Dancing All Night before and haven't decided wether to use touch or button controls.
What do you use?
Buttons is what I used at P4D. Difficulty seems on another level. Switched to hard in options ... switched back to normal, since there is little room for error there, maybe later ;-)

Some questions about DJ Ranking. At first sight it seems not so solid, but maybe I miss something. Rankings activated through options and restarted multiple times.
It needed some time/restarts, but than my score showed up. But only in "local" rankings not in "world" rankings!? Because maybe my level (28) is too low or ...? And what does "local" mean?
When tapping "go to list" (DJ Ranking) it sometimes does not show my name, sometimes it does!?

ok, appreciate any hints and tipps


bye

What an addicting game! Thank you PM Studios.
Not much going on here, but anyway. Have to get rid of some thoughts.

Reason for posting again is, that I really miss one thing here.
I think a "slow motion practice mode" of some kind should be added to this type of games. Ideal would be a mode where I can choose from a couple of different speeds.
25%, 50%, 75%, 100%
Technically I imagine this to be easy implemented!?

It's just so frustrating, when you start a song - lets say Stargazer - for the first time and quickly become overwhelmed by it. For me at least, it would be a real motivation to be able to practice this song with 50% speed and built upon that.

I'm playing drums for over 30 years and think I have an understanding on how muscle memory works. Whenever I learn new things as a drummer, I often practice slow, very slow. And work my way up, cause that's the best way for me to learn and automate things. I think that is true to most musicians and should be to a certain extent to this type of game. So this is my main only big downside to this game. Bang Bang Groove etc. ... how am I supposed to not get mad, when practicing such songs for the first time at full speed? ;-)

Are there any rhythm games out there that have such mode?

For people who still plays, I made a Google sheet document for myself because the scores aren't displayed in the music selection screen.
Anyone interested for the model ?

Right,so I just got back my Vita and I can finally give this a proper go. Does it take a long time for the gameplay to click? I mean DjMax is pretty straightforward but I'm having some trouble getting a hold of myself in superbeat, also I think my thumbs aren't long enough to play the 6Trax mode (or I should be holding the Vita some other way).

That's awesome. Do we know if the PS4 version has more songs or if it comes with the DLC released for the Vita version? Or maybe there are some new difficult charts for old songs?

The PS4 Version includes all DLC from vita version bundled in-game, (Except Arc System Works songs that had to be removed due to licensing issues), But we are currently working on new DLC's for console editions.

EX Charts from World Tour might be available in freestyle in a upcoming patch, no ETA yet

Thanks for bringing this to consoles. Any particular reason there is no disc version XB1?
Safe to assume that the digital XB1 version be the same price as the PS4 version ($39.99).

Thanks again. Looking forward to this.
 
Is there gonna be any changes to World Tour missions or is it gonna be the same as the Vita version?

I was actually wondering if it would need to be changed because two of the clubs featured in World Tour closed down in real life last year.

Although Fabric reopened and Space lives on through franchising, so I guess all is well?

It will remain the same.

The Platinum is only for the rhythm game mania!

We aimed for a physical X1 release but sadly the minimum order amount was too high.

I would recommend you check on May 10th (when pre-orders begin) for the final price in your local Xbox Live as it may vary due to taxes, etc.

I just ordered the vita version last week so I'm really excited. I had no idea it was from the DJ Max developers so I hadn't given it a second thought, but after I found out I ordered it straight away. I think most people aren't going to know either, but DJ Max is really popular so that's got to be on the cover or poster somehow.

Any estimates on a (physical) European release date (PS4)? Soon after? Few month wait? 2018?

With rhythm games steadily making their way to the Switch... any hopes of XONiC being added to that trend, or no? Would love if true; I'd happily double-dip.
 
Question, a friend who workd on a store told me that alongside the ps4 release there will be a re print for vita.

If this is true, will include the cds included in the ps4 version?

Hello, i can confirm there is no re print for the Vita Version.

While we are currently working on new titles, XONiC for Switch it's not in our plans at the moment, but we might consider it if there's enough demand.

Is the PS4 version of the game releasing on PSN today? It's not up on PSN at the moment.

Okay, I just searched again and now it's there. Apparently it doesn't show up if you search for just superbeat lol

My copy showed up, comes with a full soundtrack CD. I didn't know that or I forgot about it. :eek:

Hoping that PM Studios is making DJ Max for Switch though...also what happened to DJ Max 3DS? :eek:

Gonna try to grab a physical copy of this because the soundtrack is a nice added bonus. Glad it's on PS4 now and I look forward to using a larger controller because I found it a bit tough on Vita using the buttons and mostly used touch. Still it's a fantastic game and I've been playing it off and on, on the Vita lately.
