Songs of the Week (December 2, 2012)

[jimerax]

Another song, "jelly" was added in the game, tribute to jellygod.

[DossarLX ODI]

Congratulations to Choofers on his first song ingame! And of course remembering jellygod as well.

Please read carefully.

I have to agree with this and it's ridiculous how much heat was given even if he didn't word it in the nicest manner

Do we really need new easy songs? I have personally never understood the argument for them. I am sorry if I derail the thread (although at this point that might be a good thing), but people don't spend a lot of time on easier songs. There are plenty to play now. Harder songs, on the other hand, keep the game interesting for the people who actually genuinely care about FFR (generally speaking, of course some worse players do as well, but most of FFR's biggest supporters are fairly skilled).

Not saying we should never add easier songs, but it seems to me that the vast majority of songs should be 60+.

Good to know we get to remember jellygod with a shitty ass song.

[Charu]

I guess no one can please everyone.

By the way, nice surprise song, heh.

For me it would create a better balance because otherwise I'd just go to stepmania and play a song on 1.2 rate or something

Most of the current easier files don't satisfy for reasons I don't want to go into because this thread has received enough crap (e.g. piano files with grace notes and changing BPMs when newer players should be playing more constant rhythms to not get confused). Lately I've been noticing weird patterns and awkward bursty krap in new higher difficulty files coming out now and that does not maintain interest to me even as a D6 player (going to your statement about interest).
And yes I spell crap like krap because of that Arch0wl Payon .txt file for cases like these
Keep in mind D1-D3 also matter, just you always see D4-D6 posting in the scores threads.

This probably has to do with how most steppers these days are veteran players as well. They like making hard step because that's what they play. Plus, it's hard to make a "good" easy file that doesn't feel bare.

You guys keep hating on the Fluttershy song, I'll just sit here and break my brachioradialis over the 2-frame minijacks in Ehhen. X_X

I can understand validated arguments about poor quality stepcharts being accepted and put in the game, sure. But holy fuck, if a song with an acceptable stepchart gets added to the game, yet you don't like the song but feel compelled to play the hell out of it for ~*~MaX StATs!~*~, just stop complaining and play with the volume off. Again, every single person on here has played through several songs that they didn't enjoy listening to, and I can guarantee that not everyone has complained. Just deal with it. Music is music.

I feel bad for anyone that's playing this game solely to maximize their stats. It makes the game feel like work instead of, you know, a game. Anyone sharing that mindframe (setting priority on maximum stats first) would logically prefer that no more files are added to the game, as every new file added increases the potential for more un-AAA'd songs to be added to your levelranks. And if that were to happen, this game would die so incredibly fast lol.

Have more fun with the game guys, honestly. If you feel compelled to play a song you don't like for stats, turn the volume off. Sure Dossar, it defeats the purpose of a rhythm game, but as seeing 'ignore this song and play the others you enjoy' isn't a justifiable response given that you feel compelled to play the chart for stats, it's really the only option. People are making this a way bigger deal than it should be.

thread should end here.

Edit: jelly is a nice tribute.

[Xx{Midnight}xX]

Jelly
Stepartist: Choof

- Sexy as shit song and well done chart. Really nicely done thing for Jellygod.

[bballa48]

@ Doss,

I guess my point is that D1-D3 players don't usually stay at that skill level very long, and if they do, it is because they don't play as much as they could (with exceptions of course). Therefore, they probably don't get sick of the songs and by the time they do, they are good enough to play harder ones.

[rparty89]

tbh

i don't spend time on forums for the past two years. but what happened to this "jelly" or steve person?

[MarioNintendo]

Here's the explanation for anyone who still doesn't know about jellygod's story:

because everyone that starts put playing this game starts with the ability to do 70+ difficulty files

I tend to agree with you Carlos, but let's not forget there are about 150 songs difficulty 10 and under (tried to count them but must've forgotten one or two)!

Just a thought.

in case you couldnt tell that was a sarcastic post lol

[MarioNintendo]

hey I did realize that your opinion behind that post was that newbies can't play 70+ files, hence why I posted how many files were already there for newcomers...

lol it doesn't matter anyway.

Agreed

we're not Osu here guys we're giving players a curve to learn off of, something a lot of the newer games such as TS, Osu, and even Solo still lack

And before someone bites my head off for the solo comment

there's hardly anything tieing from the beginner packs to the charts like scarhand you have to get crazy scores on to even be noticed
