Party Mode

Party Mode The party mode feature in UltraStar Deluxe allows play with up to 8-12 Players in 2 or 3 teams. Enter the party mode from main menu via the item "Party". Settings for the party game Difficulty: Pick the level of difficulty from: Easy, Medium and Hard. Playlist mode: Defines which songs should be available. You can choose from 'All Songs', 'Folder' or Playlist': All Songs uses every song within default the song directory. Folder uses every song within a subdirectory created underneath the song directory. Playlist includes every song within a previously created playlist. Team Selection Number of teams: Set the amount of teams, either 2 or 3. Teams: Choose the number of singers for each team, type in their names in each player name box and get them a cool team name. Then continue. Round Selection Number of rounds: Select the number of rounds to be played (between 2 and 7). Singing Mode: Set the mode of each round or leave "Random". Integrated modes are: Duel - Like the classic mode, players sing together and the player with the highest score at the end of the song wins the round. Blind Mode – The same as duel mode, but without the pitch bars being displayed on the screen. Until 5000 - The same as duel mode, but the first player who gets 5000 points wins. Team Duel - If there is more than one player, you can choose team duel. While singing a red bar indicates when to exchange microphone and players within the teams. The next player will be displayed below the scores. Random - A random mode from all available modes will be defined for that round. Continue to overview of players, rounds and current scores. Party Mode: Rounds Starting with Round 1 the players who must challenge each other are displayed at the bottom of the screen, a small description reminds the mode of that specific round. Now the players have to prepare themselves and get their mics.

Song Selection You can't select a song directly. When starting party mode you chose a "pool of songs" from which USdx now chooses a random song. Each team can now decide if they want to sing that song or if they want to use a joker.

The joker card Each team has 5 jokers which can be taken by the party menu (M) or via the key which represents the team number (1-3). Taking a joker forces USdx to choose another song randomly. Once no team has a joker any more, the players will have no choice and are forced to sing the chosen song. The best team wins!
