GROUP Information

Information available at the BEMANIwiki 2nd GF/DM XG2 GROUP page.

Live Points

After entering a group, Live Points may be earned while playing songs. Performing well on a song increases the number of points earned, while performing poorly decreases the number of points. A maximum of 300 points may be earned per song, and the point total is not dependent on difficulty tier, so a person playing on the NORMAL difficulty tier has the same chance of earning 300 points as a player on the EXPERT tier. Unlocks available through Live Points are listed further below.

Bonus points following a set may also be earned as follows:

  • 20 points for playing a session with an additional person (i.e. two players on GF, or one on GF and one on DM)
  • 50 points for playing a session with two additional people
  • 50 points for completing a Cooperation Challenge
  • 10 x n points for having played consecutive days, where n = the number of consecutive days played (maximum of 7)
