Where do you look while playing ?

Kiro51 · 07-2-2008, 10:41 AM

Hi

My question is : Where do you look exactly on your screen while playing ?

I almost always look around the combo counter. But I wonder if that's the reason why my accuracy is so bad (even when I FC some songs I'm still 1200th...) ?

i seem to stare between the up and down arrows

**Bynary Fission** · 07-2-2008, 10:45 AM

I look at the entire screen while playing. However, on slow parts I look at every individual arrow in order to avoid getting goods (since I tend to at easy parts). I would try not to pay specific attention to any one part of the screen or you might throw yourself off in skill or PA.

I tend to look about 1-2 arrow widths below the marker arrows, but I look to the right and left all the time... On slow songs I look at each arrow as it comes, on fast ones at each 4-5 arrow group.

**ballaw hare** · 07-2-2008, 11:04 AM

I look towards the center mostly.

**5.points** · 07-2-2008, 11:17 AM

Above the combo on not so hard songs and below the combo on harder song or fast streams.

at the combo counter

Between the arrows and the accuracy.

**Bluearrowll** · 07-2-2008, 11:24 AM

Depending on the pattern I will either pay attention to the down arrow or the up arrow, about an arrow-length down of the goal arrows.

Right in between the arrow grid and the combo counter, no matter if it's easy or a mashfest.

**Matrixdude** · 07-2-2008, 11:32 AM

My eyes are moving constantly. Watch the whole screen.

**syzergy** · 07-2-2008, 11:34 AM

I sometimes look at the grade per arrow like where it says "perfect".

Triplex72 · 07-2-2008, 11:34 AM

Usually my enormous penis is in the way, so that's what I'm stuck staring at...

**Breakdown16** · 07-2-2008, 11:38 AM

I look at the section a bit under the arrows, slightly more to the right than to the left (I don't know why).

STD_i suck · 07-2-2008, 11:42 AM

i look all the way at the bottom of the screen right when the arrows come up

**EAGAMES** · 07-2-2008, 11:42 AM

I do what Matrixdude does.

**EDEdDNEdDYFaN** · 07-2-2008, 11:55 AM

I look dead center on the ffr window and I don't look at anything else...maybe the timings I get that's about it. I just like..know when to hit it without looking at the top.

**Tasselfoot** · 07-2-2008, 12:31 PM

the television.

**Coolboyrulez0** · 07-2-2008, 01:26 PM

i look at the arrows.

**sarahxjane** · 07-2-2008, 01:29 PM

I change where I look.

I usually look at the top arrows.
Sometimes I follow the arrows.
Other times I look at the combo counter.
