Does Music ability help you play FFR?

[Jimmik]

I am a drummer...I'm not too good in my own eyes, but i have a set and like to hit and make the noise!!! I'v taken drum lessons for about 2 years now, and when i started playing FFR recently i thought that it would be a piece of cake because of my musical experience, but it turns out that i suck at it.. :oops: oh well 8) So now I'm asking you guys, musical or not, do you think that having musical ability helps you play Flash Flash Revolution? (i know that playing, for example, the harmonica or accordion doesnt really help for this game, but you know what i'm talking about..)(i hope..)

[QreepyBORIS]

I have played cello for about 4 and a half years, and it hasnt helped me much. I am good with rhythm (spelling there for sure) and all, too.

Practice helped alot more than anything.

I play the piano and it might help you recognize when the beats actually occur, therefore helping you get perfects more often because you can press it right on beat. Of course this is saying that the arrows are right on beat, and then again, maybe not, since I can't get on a high score set unless it's been reseted.

[LEGO]

it helped me a lot, but i do know people that i don't think it helps much...

[Yanah_the_Master]

My skills with the piano don't help me kick your asses at FFR, it's skill and a lot of wasted time that does :P

[LEGO]

lol, you must sux0r

Arch0wl the deity only plays this game 20 minutes a day and i think he 0wnzzz you...

but then again we're all owned by him :( yep he's the best i want to be like Arch 0wl someday. (so dont feeel bad)

wtf am i saying to insult you?? omg lol i can't even beat rondo :( sry for that outburst

i guess i just love 0wl.

[QreepyBORIS]

Umm, he claims to be a really nice guy in actuality.
But a jackass online. He said that, or something close to that.

[LEGO]

well wtf do you think i am? or for that matter arent we all? lol

[Freak83]

LEGO, check the past polls. There was a poll made about Arch0wl on the homepage once. It's what actually got me to start talking in the forums.

[QreepyBORIS]

Same here, partly. Actually, I started posting on March 2, so.....

But I registered while it was up! I voted for him to come back. At least it made me start to LOOK on the forums.

My first post was about Macs, and how I got one for my personality test.

Then dave shot me. :lol:

[Freak83]

My first post was accusing a guy of cheating on FF7 because the high scores on there seemed too high and unrealistic...................

Ah I was such a.......... newb back then. :lol:

[QreepyBORIS]

Then I am wrong in that other thread...oops.

[jewpinthethird]

I've been playing the piano for about 10 years, on and off, and the trumpet for 4. Having knowledge of music helps me stay on beat and it helps me keep a steady tempo as well as tempo changes. With out music I would have no rhythm.

Music has definently help me excel in DDR(as well as FFR). But as in anything, it takes practice, you don't get it right off the bat.

[scorpio1690]

kewl,ive bin playin drums for five years,and i dont think anyone thinks that theyre to good at music in their own eyes,and i do think it does help with the beat(unless the arrows off beat)

[LEGO]

I'VE PLAYED TRUMOET FOR 3 YEARS BARITONE HORN (aka euphonium) FOR 3 YEARS

OH YEAH PIANO IN SPARE TIME


sorry hyrogashi rubbed off on me again

[Hyrogashi]

shut the hell up, you all suck, i play piano, i got mad skeelz, thats why i pwn at dwi, and STOP talking about arch0wl SERIOUSLY! he uses TWO hands to play and he plays more then 20 minutes a day, you KNOW it. he's just trying to be cool. Ill admit it, i play for like 2 hours a day.

[Arch0wl]

Actually, I play stepmania about 20 minutes a day. I play FFR everytime there's an update ;)

[Hyrogashi]

MMHM! KEEP LYING! GO AHEAD MISTER 0WL

[Arch0wl]

Oh, and how many hands/fingers/toes you play with doesn't mean ****ing ****. We've already been over this twice. You've walked out on BOTH debates about it.

[LEGO]

Go Arch0wl! you tell 'im! 8)

and hyro i'm better at piano than you :-P

[QreepyBORIS]

I'm just glad this entertainment comes free.... :lol:

[Jimmik]

...............

When i play, sometimes i focus too much on the music, and the arrows end up being misses because i hit with the beat... :cry: :oops: tis very crappy... oh well lol :)

you guys are no fair..that allo rondo thinger is way too hard for me..i just whack my fingers in a steady pattern of 10 or 15 buttons per second and i end up just messing up in the first 10 seconds! :) hehehe..of course when it has those 5 notes, like 3 with right&2 with left, that make the song so catchy..that i can do! :mrgreen: hehe

[Kashell]

It probably hurts me more than helps on FFR because the arrows are offbeat on alot of songs.

[Hyrogashi]

oohhh arch, we fight like a married couple....god damnit..i didnt mean that..Shutup arch, i feel the need to insult you because you the only person that i should insult, you brag, i insult, i brag, you insult. Got it? kthx.

PS: LEGO YOUR SUPPOSED TO BE SUPPORTING ME MOTHERFAX0

[Arch0wl]

Playing IIDX helps finger DDR skill alot too

[Kashell]

5 key helps probably more than DDR really. But if you went with the beats of any song on FFR, you'd fail the song.

[Yanah_the_Master]

omg lol i can't even beat rondo

I can! Once...

[LEGO]

I canbeat HELLBEAT and PNWED now, if that matters.

Sorry Hyrogashi... I'm behind you :)

[Hyrogashi]

Playing IIDX helps finger DDR skill alot too

Yea, and you use a very similar, or same style of finger positioning as IIDX in DWI and Stepmania, Thats ..k. And The only reason i dont play IIDX Is because the emulator is a peice of **** and the keyboard Buttons are just..gay. And i have to drive 50000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 miles to golfland sunsplash if i want to play IIDX in arcade

[LEGO]

In the nether-realm it takes a long time to get anywhere, huh?

[Yanah_the_Master]

i have to drive googleplex miles just to get out of there.

a googleplex is 10^google (think base 36 counting system)

If you were to express it in 10 base system standard form, in size 8 font, it'd stretch from your computer screen to pluto.

Triple post and bumping an old topic, awesome.

Damn, beat me to it...

Awesome Hyro/Arch fight, though ;p

[Benny1]

amazing bump, ps though, I find music ability is very useful for rhythm, beat, and just a sense of music in general, also, I figure it helps me step some, if not much though.
