AC bm complete: Difference between revisions

* The first of two beatmania compilation mixes released. completeMIX contains all of the songs from [[AC bm 1st|beatmania]], [[AC bm 2nd|2ndMIX]], and [[AC bm 3rd|3rdMIX]], along with two new songs and two English versions of older songs.

* Despite that its predecessor [[AC bm 3rd|3rdMIX]] counted combo, completeMIX does not.

* The maximum [[Money Score]] for a song was increased from 100,000 to 200,000.

** GREATs are worth half the base note score, and the relationship between GOODs and GREATs is unchanged.

** The same 200,000 money score would later be adopted in the [[AC General Info|beatmania IIDX series]], until its removal in [[AC BISTROVER|BISTROVER]].

* First beatmania game to display both genres ''and'' song titles on the song select screen.

** As such, Flashing GREATs are worth more money score in the normal game modes, and EX score in INTERNET RANKING and EXPERT modes.

* First beatmania game to feature INTERNET RANKING mode, which replaces EXPERT mode while playing SINGLE or 1P & 2P (EXPERT appears instead when playing DOUBLE).

** In both INTERNET RANKING and EXPERT, the score counter displays [[EX Score]] instead of the traditional Money Score.

** During gameplay in INTERNET RANKING, the frame is gold instead of the standard gray (which EXPERT also uses).

** In INTERNET RANKING, when you clear a certain number of stages in a course, an INTERNET RANKING code is displayed, which could be entered on KONAMI's official website during active INTERNET RANKING periods.

* First BEMANI game worked on by CG designer [[Hotaru Matsuzaki]], known then as MZD FIRE FLY.
