    unlocking songs

    Alright, we all know about the secret section right? Not very secretive, is it... Well, as cool as finding new songs as you get more credits is, why not have alternate methods of unlocking songs?

    Such as clearing a certain percent of songs. clearing 25% could unlocking an easy song, 50% a harder, 75% a harder and 100% an extremely hard one. Also, since I know you already got the password thing to work in beta .55, you could show a password after clearing songs such as Revolutionary or Caprice, or maybe topping a 500 combo, or topic 500,000 points. Another idea is your total stats such as after 500 games played or a certain amount of total points.

    The methods are endless, so why stick to credits only? I'm sure that this wouldn't be to hard to program, what'd'ya say :P.

    I loved this idea from the start. Sort of has a Super Smash Brothers Melee feel to it. You could BUY about 250 trophies with coins (in this case, credits) but there were some you had to do stuff for, like beat a certain target test total time, or play a certain number of matches.

    I love the credits system, but hes right, you do have so many possibillities to experiment with.

    Indeed, it seems like a simple concept to program (except perhaps the % completed bit)...in Visual Basic. I don't know much about FLASH to know if this would be a simple thing or not =/.

    On the other hand, I have to disagree with the password idea. All it would take is one person to tell EVERYONE the password, unless of course it was unique per individual.

        Wow, I agree with that, some new condictions for secret songs.
        For example...

        To unlock
        Burnout ... Total Score over 10 million
        Secret Zombie ... After playing all songs in "Dance" section.
        Fett's Vette ... After clearing all songs in "Hip-Hop" section.
        For FFR ... FC'ing "Breaking the Common"
        La Luna Caida ... Total games you have played over 500

          Great ideas. Great, great, great ideas. Another thing I thought of is maybe having avatar-specific songs. I dont if this would be easy or hard in coding, and we'd certainly have to have much more secret songs, but its an idea nonetheless.

                Yeah, I take back the password idea.

                CONSIDER THE REST SYNTH!

                    I'd agree with a change in unlocking, but I don't think it should have to do with the playing and clearing of songs. I don't want to clear a couple songs (like Get on the Move, for example) and I don't want FFR to make me. There are better ways to earn them.

                        Re: unlocking songs

                        I'm only liking the total games played / total score idea.

                        Of course we already have tokens and skill tokens along with the Secret songs, and I highly doubt anyone would how to get secret songs.

                        However, someone could possibly make a new genre of songs such as Games Played / Score or something like that and just put new songs into there.

                        Get on it Synth
