Remember people, you can always look at the initial version of any card in your album. When you're looking at the card, you can switch back and forth between the original and idolized versions.

Aww, I think they stopped the daily 3 love gem distribution thing. Only received 100 friend points as daily login bonus.

i was one away from 5 gems for another pull

time to grind songs when i can to boost bond D:

Heapy, try to save up Love Gems until they reach 50 so that you can do a "10+1" pull. Use them during a later date when they can guarantee that you can get a Super Rare card when you do the said pull...

 

[Chariot]

It is very good idea

^it took me a while to like Maki and Eli honestly

Yeah, ok. Eli was a blockhead in zhe first half. But Maki was always awesome, from the very moment Honoka found her.

bad taste, how can you not like those two IMMEDIATELY

Spoiler

still need to watch the series

Yes, need to!

First event is Kotori's Sweets.

Nice! They're not that many players yet, aye? So it's easier for us to get somezhing?

Its not the same. This is like looking at olf photos, knowing full well that the child has changed to worse.

 

[MSMrRound]

Question for more experienced Love Live players: how frequent are these events? Can you get decent stuff even though you might not be very good at rhythm stuff? What are some of the categories of event rewards that you are able to get?

Let's say after Kotori's Sweets event ended...can we assume that there will be another event right after, or is there usually a lull in between?

 

[Jintor]

If they keep with the updates I could see myself playing this for a while

 

[Chariot]

Hopefully they do it like the japnese twice a month, if the wiki font lie to us.

Couple days off before another event. Usually cycles between Score Match and Token Events as of late.

We're probably getting regular Token events for a while until the first Score Match, which is Maki.

Then draw another one and keep that one. Problem solved!

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Episode 2 done and the big boobs one is quite lovely.
Wish I could idolize her card to see more.

You can get decent stuff usually even if you're not that good. With these events, you can make up for lack of skill with your wallet (by using gems to refill your LP. ).

There's the usual assortment of gold, gems and friend points. The SR card is of course the main attraction, but there's usually a new normal card and an Alpaca (only good for training, or looking at if you like). And then there's a teacher card (same idea with the Alpaca).

 

[firehawk12]

Alpaca is secretly the best character in the anime anyway!

 

[MSMrRound]

I initially liked Umi at first

She got some of the best faces though. No questions about that.

 

[JoeFu]

Cool, glad events are happening soon!

 

[firehawk12]

So does the BiBi draw guarantee an SR?

I'm tempted to pull the trigger, but I almost also want to wait for new characters to cycle over.
(Honoka is secret best).

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Her eyes... change color...?

 

[Kincaido]

I can definitely agree with this lol. Love the faces that she make throughout the shows.

 

[PAULINK]

I hope they add expert to the next update. Hard is boring me to tears. By the time I hit 20 plays of every hard song, i'm tempted to call it quits.

 

[Chariot]

Hey I didn't hate Maki or anything. And there will be probably be a bit of time between this upcoming event and the next one but in the jp version they are like a week apart or so.

Haha, I know I only kid. I dont take liking or not liking characters so serious.

Spoiler

Or do I!?

Then draw another one and keep that one. Problem solved!

If this is the way it has to be :,(

Her eyes... change color...?

Second picture is someone else

Play the new event songs in the JP version - there, Normal is the new Hard. And they get rotated out every day, so you can't learn them by brute force.

 

[Kincaido]

Just checked and I got a 3 love gem bonus. Sitting at 63 now

 

[chickdigger802]

Expert is only available at certain times, you can't play normal songs on expert anytime.

Yyyyyyyy

 

[Jintor]

Love Live has the best reaction faces

 

[bobawesome]

Oh, thank goodness. Hopefully this keeps up until June. I started saving far too late and only now hit 28.

 

[PAULINK]

Well that really takes the cake doesn't it. Guess I will abstain from playing the game until then, before I get burned out. Some of the design choices made in this game are just stupid as hell (lol who is going to play a version of a hard song 100 times, let alone all of them, for a fucking love stone).

Nah, i'd rather not juggle between the two. Call it lazy, but i've invested enough time (and money) into the english one.

 

[chickdigger802]

Love live is the only idol anime thing with thighs too. No clue why.

 

[chrono01]

As happy as I am to be getting our first event [in NA], it seems as though I'll be sitting on my 65 Loveca Stones a while longer. There's no mention of a 10+ 1 Guaranteed SR, and I refuse to use them until they do. :/

 

[The Grim Heaper]

but i'm impatieeeennnnt D:

and it's a good thing too because LOOK WHAT I PULLED OMG

 

[Draxal]

Edit double post.

 

[Draxal]

I kinda got impatient as well ... And now I have idolized sr versions of honoka and kotori and reg sr of umi and eli. Guess I'm set.

I'm a sucker for p and d clones.

 

[chrono01]

wrong with that, its smart and you may not have to use loveca for the event if you intend on getting the reward card, if you make good use of your LP

That's the plan!

And congrats on the card, The Grim Heaper. I'm jealous.

Yeah, it's probably better if you do that. I did a 50 Love Stone Bibi only draw in the JP version earlier and all I got were rares.

I'm a bad luck bear.

 

[chickdigger802]

aishiteru banzai is pretty catchy song.

normal is a good place for me to practice those awful release hold while tap another button at same time.

wish the game had training exercises :S

It's my favorite song that I currently have unlocked. I've already played it more than 40 times, in attempting to rank up.

That piano version with Maki... <3

 

[firehawk12]

So I thought I'd ask again... the BiBi draw, does it guarantee a SR if you use 10+1? lol

 

[chrono01]

Nothing is mentioned. If it's not, I wouldn't risk it.

 

[firehawk12]

Ah, okay. Guess I'll wait.
I do like how in the JP version, there are just a billion rares now. It makes it harder to idolize, but the flipside is that I can actually field a Smile team that's nearly full of rares and can get Bs in Hard mode.

 

[Kincaido]

The feeling when you miss the first two notes of a song on hard because something distracted you and you get the rest perfect with no problem OTL

 

[raven777]

This happens to me all the time!

 

[chickdigger802]

i stopped caring because i mostly play this on the subway, where everything makes you mess up lol.


Kinda wish they subbed the songs :X

 

[chickdigger802]

Think it's worse to mess up on one of the last notes

Especially when you nail hard parts no sweat

besides the goal, is there a score bonus or anything for full combo though?

 

[firehawk12]

There's a score multiplier for being in a combo, but it only starts at 100 according to the wiki.

 

[chickdigger802]

but missing the last note doesn't really matter unless you are after the full combo goal.

 

[chickdigger802]

pure eli ain't too shabby.

omnomnomnom

 

[Kincaido]

I just got miss reindeer zipper you guys were talking about earlier lol

 

[raven777]

there's this other reindeer girl but she is less silly looking

she was the #1 N card girl in the recent poll.

 

[ponpo]

OSU mode

 

[Jintor]

Yeah, so my girlfriend is basically kicking my ass at this. She's like twenty ranks above me with like three times as many rares.

It's kind of awesome

 

[holysan]

Need SR Maki, everything is better with Maki.

 

[BGBW]

Aww, I think they stopped the daily 3 love gem distribution thing. Only received 100 friend points as daily login bonus.

I was lttp so I still got my 3 gem bonus so clearly it is based on days you've played rather than an early bird promotion.
