So what is the most efficient way to play the event?

I have been playing 1x expert plays to get the 20 clears on the challenge songs, then whenever those 1 time things pop up I do 4x since they go away (what causes these to appear?), and after I finish my clears I will go back to 4x playing.

So I'm doing the easy clear goals and my songs are dissappearing after I clear them. This happening to anyone else? Didn't see it in the notes that they were one time plays. But it even happened to the songs listed under hits.

Definitely want to join the B8 squad but the whole having to be in the same session thing is annoying!

Once you're in it you're in it. When you start the game up you can jump right into a squad's session if it's up.

Grand Kirby posted...

- During the Bombing Mission song they said they showed new footage from the remake during it, but it was mixed in with the stuff from previous trailers so I couldn't really tell what was new.
- Roth played the violin for Somnus, which was really cool.
- Holy shit Maria and Draco was amazing! They had three opera singers and a narrator to do all the lines. It felt like watching an actual opera. The standing ovation for that lasted a good three minutes.
- One Winged Angel was done as a singalong. It was really funny.

There was definitely some new footage. I can't remember exactly which parts though.

And you got Maria and Draco??? That would be awesome, we just had Celes' theme and I was hoping it would lead into it.

And yeah, the crowd did the Sephiroth parts. Fun way to end the night.
