Official Lag Poll (1438k vs 848k)

**-zeroSKILL-** · 08-5-2008, 02:02 AM

Tired of reading about this and having to skim through empty posts to find out how many people are lagging and how many can play just fine... Thought I'd make a quick poll to get a rough estimate of how bad everyone is lagging, and to what degree your opinion of what lag is matters.

Pick now.

1. NO lag. I have at least 30 AAA's
2. NO lag. I have at least 15 AAA's
3. NO lag. I have 14 or fewer AAA's
4. Small lag spikes, ruins my PA.
5. Small lag spikes, can't FC some songs any more.
6. Small lag spikes, can't FC most songs any more.
7. Horrible lag. I'm unable to read songs I can normally AAA.
8. Horrible lag. I'm unable to read songs I can normally FC.
9. Crazy lag. I Miss notes I never even saw on the screen.
10. omglag. I Fail the song and never see one arrow scroll by.

I know this isn't a perfect poll, or completely comprehensive. But it should be a good measuring stick for how widespread the problem is.

Making poll public, just to make sure you choose the right answer for your skill.

1. NO lag. I have at least 30 AAA's

Hey, I play on Vista all the time, and I'm always slightly lagging, and I have about 150 AAA's I can tell because I see the arrows coming all non smoothly.

**-zeroSKILL-** · 08-5-2008, 02:06 AM

Commandersa1, the poll is now up, you can go ahead and check circle #1. The circle I'm expecting the fewest number of clicks on =.=

I had to go with #7 myself.

**Sprite-** · 08-5-2008, 02:07 AM

I has no lag.

rzr · 08-5-2008, 02:08 AM

I have dial up. Therefore, it takes equal amount of time for either to load, and neither lag. Either way, I am not yet skilled enough to get that many AAA's to begin with.

bluguerrilla · 08-5-2008, 02:08 AM

Started lagging for me recently. I can't FC songs anymore.

Lag never has anything to do with internet connection in this game.

got used to vista lag and ffr doesnt add any extra lag

Option 3 sounds perfect for you then

**-zeroSKILL-** · 08-5-2008, 02:23 AM

arrekusuof93, I would've recommended you hit option 1. We all know your capable of EASILY achieving it -__-'

It's not so much lag as tiny, almost unnoticeable, skips that an unskilled player might not notice.

Post a video of you playing a song that lags for you.

Izzy · 08-5-2008, 02:42 AM

Ok. I am on it.

**-zeroSKILL-** · 08-5-2008, 02:43 AM

Try and AAA Sonata Quasi Una Fantasia for us.

XD

Izzy · 08-5-2008, 02:51 AM

I would but the simfile author was on crack when he stepped it.

Crizo92 · 08-5-2008, 02:53 AM

You people and your new computers with Vista.

I have a 2001 Dell with 256 MBs of RAM with DSL that's not even that fast. I also have XP. I never if barely get any lag on ffr ever.

You really do have no sense of humor, do you? :<

I still remember your frustration vid you posted of the ubertrill.

5 second long trill not synced to anything... And then, when you finally did nail it, you always had goods at random points before. Like 6 Goods before a 250 combo or something like that... I dunno.

I hate that song though. Only fun part is the runningmen. The pseudo jumpstream runningmen are ridiculous. No idea how you masters hit that kind of crap while maintaining your PA.

Any advice as to what I should do to practice for stuff like that xD?

Izzy · 08-5-2008, 03:05 AM

The trill was the easy part. The song is not one bit difficult. I made that vid to show i could get the trill on any attempt.

**-zeroSKILL-** · 08-5-2008, 03:09 AM

You said the beginning was slightly off sync, and the trill was just stupid back when it was your Divisions tourney song.

Finally master your pseudo jump-mashing technique to nail the trill though? Cool.

Again, what recommendations do you have to get better at FFR. I think I heard a rumor you played some rhythm game that requires 8 fingers? o_0

Crizo92 · 08-5-2008, 03:11 AM

Just practice dude, honestly there's no trick.
