I really love everything about this PV and that Honoka solo part 

 

I did try the color changing mode it seems okay, I wouldn't mind playing that only if it means less crashes until the app's fixed. I didn't notice any missions yet I guess I'm not that deep into it yet. Is there a way to change our oshis in the options or something?

[Lurkette]

Yeah, let me do a brief rundown of the screens and options:

 

Spoiler

After getting into your save, there are 6 buttons at the bottom (appropriately colored).

 

Green: Home. News gets posted on the whiteboard, which you can shuffle through, blog entries get updated on the Syachi in the upper right corner, and presents get delivered here. Presents come from log-in bonuses and from meeting certain achievements that unlock new member titles. You can only get the latter after restarting your game after meeting the requirements of the achievements.

 

Blue: Live. A menu appears showing you a list of cities. Tapping on the city will lead to the available missions for that city. Mission titles in red mean that you have to play one specific song while the titles in blue mean that you can pick your own song. A mission at the top of the list will be locked until you complete a certain number of missions on the list. Once it is unlocked, you may complete the mission at the top. Doing so will put a flag down on that town and a new one with a new list of missions will open up. You are free to do any other missions on the list before or after doing the completion mission, and doing all of them will result in a "Perfect Clear" reward of one gold Syachi coin. On the top right of the live screen, you can switch to training mode, which allows you to play any song without any missions attached.

 

Red: Members. A list, from top to bottom: "Organize Teams," "Power Up," "Skill Up," "Increase Maximum," "Burn Cards," and "Card Box." Organize Teams is where you can make your teams, up to 6. You can also edit your avatar here to add any backgrounds, outfits, or accessories you might have. Backgrounds do not affect your team, but your outfit does have an ability attached. Power Up is where you level your cards up using Syachi Soul that you acquire from burning your cards. Skill Up is where you can level up any special skills your cards might have (only 3 stars and above have skills) with another card of the same type or with Syachi Soul as a gamble. Increase Maximum is where you can increase the maximum level of your card using identical cards. Burn Cards is where you get rid of cards you don't want and Syachi Soul cards to get Soul points. You can burn up to 10 at a time. You can also hit the lower right button to burn the first 10 cards with 2 stars or less to get a slight bonus on the amount of Soul received. Card Box is where you can view your cards.

 

Yellow: Friends. "Friend List," "User info," "Friend Requests," "Invitation info." You make friends by calling on other users as guests in your shows, which gives you money, and you can confirm them as friends or delete them on this page. Making friends (hitting the leftmost button on your list of pending friends) puts them at the top of your guest list before lives and you automatically earn 100 coins once a day if you bring them to a show. You can also delete friends and see their profile information. User info contains a friend code to send to people, Invitation info is a code to give to new users to give you both a gift, I think? (mine is 1V27d42e)

 

Pink: Shop and Gacha. "Card Gacha," "Member Gacha," "Videos," "Shop." I explained the card and member gacha above (Card is for cards to use to make teams, member is for your avatar). Videos is where you can buy the solo shots for different songs. Shop is where you can buy premium currency to spend on solo shots or cards or whatever else.

 

Purple: Other. "Player Details," "Title," "Album," "Member intros," "Oshimen," "Options," "Change player information," "Video Data," "Serial Code," "Move Data," "Support," "Help," "Outside Links," "Return to Title," "Terms of Service," "Privacy Policy," "Credit," "Payment information," "Contact information." 

 

 

Does that help at all?

[SkyRockets]

This is perfect, thanks a lot! I think I added you, my code is 35a3fV88 if anyone wants to add me as well. 

[Lurkette]

momomofu (at momoiroclover.net) provided us with some serial codes to get new outfits for your avatars.

Also, Nao's event has started, you gain points just by playing the game. I've still had issues with crashing so I'd still stick to the color-changing game mode for now, since stamina counts more than ever during the event. Once in a while you will get a pop up asking you if you want to do an Event Challenge. If you say yes, you will go to a screen where you have to confirm again that you want to do it. You will get a list of 6-8 challenges with different difficulties that offer a substantial bonus of event points. You get bigger bonuses for completing harder challenges, but it also takes more stamina and, well, they're harder. You can only select one challenge each time this pop-up comes up. Once you finish the challenge, pass or fail, you no longer have access to them. The next time it pops up, the challenges will be different. Prizes for reaching certain levels of event points include special outfits for Nao avatars, skill level-up cards, soul points, silver coins, and some top-tier stuff when you get into the crazy high levels. 

 

They also added new cards and outfits featuring their Otome Matsuri costumes, and they've added new video footage as well. All Honoka fans should do themselves a favor and watch the Otome Matsuri version of Koibito wa Sniper. Adorable. New cities have apparently been added, as well. 

 

It's been interesting playing through the different difficulty levels, at least in the one mode I play. You only have 3 colors to switch between for both beginner and normal difficulties, with the main difference being the tempo and the number of markers. I noticed that these both have odd sorts of rhythms, like there's a delay between the note in the song is actually hit and when you hit your note. This gets less noticeable with normal, but it's still there. However, this is more or less a function to introduce you to the songs (if you didn't know them already) and to get you to play them enough times to know the rhythm and who sings what, because hard mode is where you start hitting that "you really need to know the songs" point. That's where you get access to all 6 colors, which change in time to who is actually singing the song. Once you get good enough it won't be an issue since you can see the color change before it happens, but it definitely helps if you know who sings what part. It's very engaging, but quite tricky since it can be hard to remember where all the colors are on the fly.

What's the screen that pops up before the "choose your oshi" screen in Syachihocall? I just chose something at random because it had the kanji for love in it, and now I'm afraid I chose something weird.
Oh yeah, and how do you switch between the game modes?
P.S. I love Basyauma rock, but Chiyuri's most certainly orange.

An awesome music doesn't need a MV at all.
I mean, damn! This is totally awesome!

[Lurkette]

^^Your hometown. You chose Aichi, probably. It does not affect gameplay.

 

You change game mode on the screen where you select your song. If you're in mission mode, you choose your city, then your mission, then the list of songs comes up on the left side of the screen. If you're in training mode, the list of songs comes up automatically. On the right side there are several buttons with tiny pictures. At the top is game mode. The one on the left is just tapping, the one of the right is color-changing. Under that you have difficulty selection, between beginner, normal, and hard, and also pro mode if you're playing color-changing, and under that you can change the length of the song. Short is on the left and you play through the first chorus, long is on the right and you play through the whole song.

Quick TV update: They're going to be on J-Melo on September 28 and Music Japan on October 5.

 

Also, for anyone playing Syachihocall, the Nao event is not competitive, so all the points we're racking up are not for rank prizes, but for group prizes based on how many total points all players collectively accumulate. The only stipulation to receive these group rewards is that you must earn at least 3000 points by the end of the event. You earn points through normal gameplay (which gives you between 50~300 points per play depending on your difficulty and score) and through the challenges that pop up every so often (which give you 600~4500 points depending on the challenge difficulty). The event ends in the middle of the day on the 16th, Japan time.

I thought she was wearing a wig at that release event, I just don't know anymore.

Janaica dance: LOL at Nao forgetting her turn in the introductions at the start, then stumbling at the end.

Basyauma Rock: Sounds like an 80s hair band arena anthem song. So cheesy, but i love it anyways.
