Known Information
- The judgement system has changed; there is now a judgement called "Perfect", presumably replacing Just Great. (Source: IGN Screenshot)
- Difficulties are listed as "Beginner", "Normal", and "Hyper". Another may or may not exist.
- Difficulties are now on a 1-10 scale, using stars. There may or may not be "flashing 10"/10+ rated songs.
- Hard has apparently been renamed to "Challenge", or "CHA" for short.
- 5-key mode is known as "beatmania" mode, 7-key mode is known as "beatmania IIDX" mode. Konami no longer appears to be removing references to IIDX from videos, etc.
- In 5-key mode, Free Zones have returned. Free Zones are areas in older songs where you can pretty much scratch as much or as little as you want.
From E3
- The grading system appears to have changed; it's possible to get a AAA with a money score of 170,000, or with more Greats than Just Greats. (Source: John Stiles)
- Songs are divided between 5-key mode and 7-key mode; they do not appear on both. (Source: Bemanistyle)
- Difficulties have changed - Nothing Ain't Stoppin' Us is a 5. (Source: Gamespot screen shots.) NOTE: As of 11/07/05, this is no longer the case. Songs now have their correct ratings (and Nothing Ain't Stoppin' Us is now a 2).
- The timing window is unchanged. (Source: John Stiles)
- Background music is the same as 9th CS. (Source: John Stiles)
- The 7-key songs only had their Light 7 charts (labeled as "7 Key"). Pressing/holding Select does nothing. Konami claims this is because they didn't want to scare people off at E3 into not trying the game. (Source: John Stiles and happosai311)
- There is no Goli art for result screens in the E3 build. (Source: John Stiles)
- There is no doubles play in the E3 build. (Source: sherl0k)
- In 5 Key mode, the right side player has buttons 1 and 2 disabled, not 6 and 7. (Source: John Stiles)
- The Konami Original Controller is allegedly going to be redesigned to be "better" and at a "more worthwhile price". (Source: djparanoia)
- Random+ is on the E3 demo. (Source: chubs)
