Taking a cue from evilpeer...

...BLIND kicks ass. Seriously. FFR desperately needs this option.

My scores shot up massively with this on. Check it out:

**talisman** · 06-30-2004, 07:55 PM

Some more, with a little shameless self promotion mixed in...

(I forgot to take screen of best SNOW score--it's 960... with blind)

**talisman** · 06-30-2004, 07:57 PM

Last one, I promise.

The one thing about blind is that it kills your MA, at least for me. Helps the PA though.

**lightdarkness** · 06-30-2004, 07:57 PM

This would be fairly easy to incorperate, I think.

Just hiding 2 movie clips, I'm sure synth with think about it when he gets some free time.

**Moogy** · 06-30-2004, 08:18 PM

Blind is retarded. Anyone that plays with it on is retarded.

PS all your scores are fake.

eVILPeeR · 06-30-2004, 08:45 PM

Moogy, the only reason you post is to use the word retarded.

Anyone who uses this word is retarded.

And as for your scores, great job

Blind helps me concentrate less, and I can see the arrows a lot easier (especially at high speeds).
Nice one

**talisman** · 06-30-2004, 08:45 PM

blind=no distractions.

and Moogy=fake, in general. (ooh, e-zinged).

Privateer · 06-30-2004, 08:50 PM

I'm so lost with blind. I do HORRIBLE with it on, because I stare at the timing window. My eyes go nuts with blind on.

What the fuck is with the improvements?

**talisman** · 06-30-2004, 09:05 PM

You mean my improvements or people in general improving with blind on?

fusi0n · 06-30-2004, 10:09 PM

Yeah I don't get it. I usually stare at the timing window, and if I get offbeat, I know and I can correct myself.

Nima · 06-30-2004, 11:51 PM

they're good with blind on cause they aren't that good yet... Ummm... (.5x) is cheap if you're gonna post a score...

Good job though

Kefit · 07-1-2004, 03:38 AM

How the hell do you guys play with blind on? I'm with Privateer - I stare at the Perfect and Marvelous messages that pop up on the screen, and without them there I feel like I am missing every single step in the file.

eVILPeeR · 07-1-2004, 03:47 AM

I must admit the first few times I used it, it really made me question my scores. But what I liked about it most was the surprise of what score you'd get at the end. And now I don't care if I get a bad score, I keep playing and my karma doesn't get upset

linus · 07-1-2004, 10:27 AM

yay for Cold Breath

.........

**talisman** · 07-1-2004, 09:01 PM

When I don't play with blind I don't really stare at the timing window, I stare like right above it and sort of peripheralize the arrows, so blind just sort of eliminates distractions and whatnot.

(and arrow speed mods aren't cheap; anyone can do them...)

IAMTHEEVILBEAN · 07-1-2004, 09:55 PM

Dis one time I used blind and der was no marveeloose or perfect or grates.

I was all wtf mates lol.

Privateer · 07-1-2004, 10:10 PM

lol wuts a peroid

Origamikid · 07-1-2004, 10:19 PM

haha actually, I did the same thing... after evilpeer's posts with blind and stuff i tried it myself and found it also improved my scores somewhat... i think the only reason why it works better for me is that it takes off nervousness if for example I have a high combo... and clears up the clutter blocking my view of the arrows... I noticed specifically in One More Lovely how when the combo counter goes over 1000 around the last section of streams, it tends to block my view a little, and that mixed with nervousness sometimes makes me mess up at that point w/o blind on, but with blind on it's easier to concentrate on just the arrows...

but I stopped using blind cuz I still like looking at the pretty counter and the flashing words =) the game just doesn't feel whole with blind on lol...

good job on your scores!

Sinjin · 07-2-2004, 02:19 PM

I'll kill him.

Seriously he just....barely squeaked through and beat my VITA score. I'll....I'll kill him.

Whatever, it's not important since he totally destroyed my RTPR, Snow, Mindblowin' and I can't even pass OML so who the fuck cares. Very, very nice job on those scores.

Nima · 07-3-2004, 08:48 PM

yes they are... And no... the game doesn't come with 3.5x or 2.5x and all that crap... You have to edit the metrics to get it. If you wanna play with them I don't care but don't put a score with them up... That's like if you wanna play some song on ddr and 5x is too slow and 8x is too fast you editing it so you can play it on 6.5.
