If I had the money, I would have gone to Japan for the sole reason of trying to stab the toes of the one who came up with "OH, LET'S ADD DOUBLE SCRATCHES!!!"

the one who had this idea at crypton need a slap , HARD , VERY HARD ...scratches are ok , less leeway of scratches are ok too , continous scratches are not a problem .
Double scratches are evil ..i haven't been this frustrated while playing a project diva game in a long time
Blame Sega, not Crypton. Crypton is the company behind the Vocaloid technology; they had nothing to do with the Project DIVA gameplay, but they make it possible! =)
WHAT. I can't wait to try this.

Getting way more fun out of this than the first game. Really dig the track list. Lots of songs I had never heard before (didn't play the first few Diva games).
Gonna have to hunt down some albums.

Not really understanding the double scratch hate - seems like a pretty simple mechanic to me. Link scratches can suck it, however.

I think it's because it forces me to change the way i'm usually playing .
Anyway :
1 Safe !!! dammit !!!
Now that brings back memories.... seeing the "battery is low" when i'm playing just means i'm playing a lot .
I think i'm back to my usual self ... i'm recalling some of my old trick and i'm closer to my usual performance i guess i was rusty ...
"Knife" star notes bursts ( sudden accelerations ) are evil ...this is ....... well i'll get accustomed to it .
Game is slowly getting better the more i play it ....

The EXIT TUNES Presents Vocalo____ collections are probably the closest thing.

i'm positive that aside from project diva arcade this is the hardest project diva game
( or the hardest on playstation systems )
Game is legit awesome but damn if it will not punish you if you think you know project diva.
There are some very devious double arrow at high speed that are very demanding in term of skill with rythm games even on normal difficulty.
And to think that us peasants who don't want/can't import won't be playing until september/october at the very least.
At least, to have some positivity in my post: tomorrow arrives my copy!!... of the original Diva F xD
I wanted to get it sooner, but I wasn't in a position to spend money on games. Not to mention that I managed to get my copy with a discount and payed $31 usd with shipping included. Heh, not bad considering that the MSRP for the game is $69 USD here.
Slowly getting back into the swing of things. Slightly disappointed in new modules. Would have liked to seen Racing '13 or '14 (or previous years). Doesn't seem like f's DLC modules carried over completely, or I haven't figured out how to unlock future rin yet.
For the old songs it seems like stars were used sparingly in comparison to new songs. Really would have liked another Meiko song.
Looking forward to DLC now. If they are only pulling from old songs, it doesn't seem like they can pick any bad ones (I'm expecting Rolling Girl, Magnet, Dear Cocoa Girls, Kocchi Muite, and....something else)

That's great to hear. The harder the better.
*is reminded of how dreadful a player he is that he struggles to even clear the songs on normal.*
Oi.
I'm loving "This is the Happiness and Peace of Mind Committee."

Still haven't managed a clear on that .-. I never did any better than a Standard on the original chart, and this new chart I definitely find harder.
Meh, I think the previous one was better.
Haven't got the game yet though, maybe once I start playing it I may change my mind, but so far from the preview videos it seems to have a bunch of really boring songs with really boring recycled PVs.
Also, not having any songs from Mitchie M sucks pretty bad, F had only one but it was better than none at all.
It's the opposite for me. The new chart is easier for me, while I still can't clear the original chart.

The rendering resolution during PVs appears to be lower than the rendering resolution used in the menus and results screens. I think it's still a higher resolution than f used though, but I haven't compared screenshots closely yet.
The resolution in PV isn't as high as the menus, but is much much better than f.
Awright! Diva F ps3 get! Shame the deliveryman came too late, I won't be able to play until later today
Gekishou even on hard is awful ;_;
And yeah, agree with you on Comitee. One of the highlights of F 2nd for sure. I loved it, and can't wait to play it

I assume there's no way to switch the touch to the rear panel because of the new star note mechanics (which are giving me an ulcer) right?
StarCreator

You can switch to the rear panel just fine in the options. I think the options are Front, Rear, Front+Rear, Analogs only.

Oh, good. Time to start digging through the options.
You're crazy. The PVs are all amazing.
Play the game and then come back to us
Iiiiii dunno. I did all the normal stuff and I'm not entirely feeling the songs at least. I'll think about it more after doing the Hard difficulty versions.
That's my main issue, many of the recycled PVs are definitely not up to par with the production values of the new PVs. Some of them are just Miku/etc. dancing to a static room. They took the original PV, added a Chance Time event and called it a day.

Honestly, I would prefer it if the new PVs were toned down. Having serious issues seeing the notes on top of them in a lot of cases.
Can't believe they didn't adopt 60 fps note scrolling or drop shadowing on the notes, both of which still make the Dreamy Theater releases much better for gameplay.

I just recently got F so I'm a newbie to it as well, JUST started on clearing extreme songs, and trying to perfect some hard ones. (I've played a lot of Project Diva 1st/2nd/Extend on PSP as well)
Too bad I have to play Normal>Hard to get to Extreme
The bane of every new Project Diva release, lol
More like "Hey, here's some time to watch the PVs before they're completely obscured with commands.

There's an option on the screen right before you start a song (in between the challenge selector and play song) that has the different buttons followed by a number selector. Anybody know what that's for?
Changes the sound effects I think.
