Namco Taiko Blog (25 February 2021) - The Taiko Team's Official Livestream Recap (with Extras!)


Just like in the past, the Taiko no Tatsujin official blog's latest entry is about the Team's own recap of the anniversary livestream's news content (for which we'll just redirect you to our own coverage instead). This time around, however, it will also be possible for everyone to watch the also-above-embeded run integrally over YouTube, free of charge!

Up until May 19th, the same link of the original broadcast will be available to watch, with a shorter cut being made available over the Bandai Namco Amusement Channel's Archive subchannel afterwards. Be sure to watch this one to the very end, for quite the lovely callback to the livestreaming past of yore!

After the jump, we'll digress upon some additional details that were supplied by Taiko Team leader Etou about the Nijiiro arcades on today's blog entry, namely about a new bug concerning the AI Battle Performance and the next round of song removals.

AI Battle Performance Mode: a Bug for Veterans
It has been confirmed how playing certain returning trials from Green Version will result in players getting weird mid-section display gaps between the registered score and the difficulty level, if they happen to have already cleared said returning trial during the Green Version operational period.

In one of the next arcade updates, the Team will make so that no data of the already-cleared trial (eg. crowns, score, scoring rank) will be lost, but mid-segment scoring partials registered will be overwritten with the new partials achieved by playing the trial again on Nijiiro Version.
