Default A Really Cool Idea

I dont no if this has been introduced yet, but it would be really cool when you are playing FFR and when you click on a song once, it'll preview the song ( as in just playing the mp3 ), then if you want to play, you can click it again just like normal

Or. You could click on a song and a little box would appear giving a sample of the best section of song and steps. Like a mini video preview.

That would be going over the top a little with the video. I like the mp3 snippet though. +1

It would be nice if it doesn't increase the loading time of the game.

I think either 1 or 2 of these is needed.
1. additional swfs/mp3s for the preview, and codes for the game(simple)
2. converter and codes for the game(complicated) that support preview functuion of stepmania

Just imagine you're thinking of a song whose title you cannot remember. Playing sample mp3s would help deal with that confusion greatly.

I think this is a very useful idea, and it should be implemented.

Its a good idea but once you've played 20K+ games, you pretty much know how every song sounds and the steps in them.

Nevertheless, its a pretty sweet idea

Bad idea.

FFR is becoming too much of a SM clone already. It doesn't need anymore help.

Bad idea.
It would cause a long loading time, either for the preview itself (having to stream a small mp3 still takes time) or to preload all previews (a lot of time).
It is also pretty usless, as FFR doesn't have a lot of songs. Remembering them is rather simple.

no that would be way too much work... and it would jack up the loading times and probably cause lag...

stepmania has this because there's potentially unlimited songs.

FFR has too few songs to justify such a feature

I agree to the reasons why it is/isn't a good idea.

It's up to the Admins now.

I doubt this would get implemented. As others have stated, the loading times would be really long. I am thinking that most of the users here forget that this is a flash game. Also how hard is it to play a 2-3 min song to hear a "preview." The longest song in the game is not even six minutes.

More consequences than benefits, No support.
