FFR Community Pack Summer 2012 Released

[kommisar]

your files felt sorta rushed tbh

[mi40]

omg.. more than one person said where's bill was good =o
thanks for the support guys n_n so happy right now =))

[t-rogdor]

Unless otherwise noted all files were played on the hardest difficulty and without knowledge of who stepped it (files marked with a * are ones where i knew who stepped it beforehand)

Whore- holy hell this is rad. had a lot of awkward as fjuck patterns but i'll let it slide given the song choice. nice job duder

Where's Bill- dude didn't yotipo step a damn near unpassable file for this like a year and a half ago? ahahhaa anyway this is a neat file. can't see myself replaying it too much but it's nice

What You Got- song choice and file are neat overall but i'm gonna goddamn choke you for those jacks you shit

*Weapon- yo i'm glad i let you finish this up because this is neat. what you put down wasn't that different than what i had but you pulled it off way better (less jacks) hah. A+

Watch Out Part 2- Grace notes like fuc but I'll let it slide because of the record scratches. otherwise just kind of a boring strem file

Watashi Wa Mizuku Wapan- nice trills icyworld
rest of the file is awesome tho

*Vortex- the intro to this was more boring than centipede but once it picked up it was p cool. we gotta finish robotomy by the way

Voice-

VALLISTAIA- nice bpm jump. decent file but it's not terribly interesting.

Valkyrie Dimension- A+ fucen amazing file but jesus christ could you have used a lower quality mp3 i mean god damn i try not to nitpick but it's so low i can tell it's bad on OEM dell speakers

Tuff Guy- Darkwing Duck v2

Todestrieb- kinda boring and generic. wasn't really doing it for me

Thunderbolt- song's just cheesy enough to work, patterns are fun and you didn't make it a full on stream file so yaeh this is good

Theory Of Eternity- nice fucen holds dude. okay file but the holds kinda kill it

*The Sampling Paradise- I'M SO GLAD THIS FINALLY GOT A RELEASE I LOVE THIS FILE SO MUCH

*The Island Part 2- this didn't need a restep, why did you step an uncut version of the song, what the literal shit are those 48th bursts, the 24th jumptrills around m75 don't go to fucen anything. also this file without that obnoxious megatrill just doesn't seem right.

Sweet Drops-

Super Soaker- oh shitttttt i was gonna step some Wavves too haha. nice oldschool vibes and a definite + for song choice.

SoC- this is like a baq file if baq couldn't step for shit and made literally the worst patterns in sm history

*Seiken Destiny some japan shit i dunno- keep steppin james. this is rad.

Savonetgfojgthorffeoai- this is way fun and the patterns flow pretty well. totally see myself replaying this.

RPG- really well stepped but it couldn't grab my attention for some reason

Rengetsue- normally i'm a sucker for files to songs like this but this just wasn't doin it for me. well done but it just kinda dragged on and I had to quit out.

Ramua- once this picked up it had a really nice vibe goin for it. not bad.

Queen Of Rose- fun shit

PRESENTER- sounds like some anime whitney houston shit. kinda simple

Poseidon- nice! really got a good vibe from this, had me feeling like i was actually having fun with stepmania and the patterns weren't bad!

Polar 240- really enjoyed this but it irked me how you consistently did not step one of those hihats lmao

*Passage D- yo you fuc i was gonna step this too. absolutely grand file. would definitely play again. A fucen +

Nightmare Night- i was completely sold on this and having a good time until that white piece of shit started rapping about ponies. the file is good but i can't do this i'm so sorry this is the worst song choice i've ever seen in my entire life. like worse than dossar stepping agoraphobic nosebleed. i'm really sorry man this file is amzin but the song just kills it.

Neurotoxin- i absolutely love this

Mystery Metropolis- did you really step grunge lmfao
anyway it kinda drags on but this is nice for a slow file

*My Unfortunate Erection- FILE OF THE YEARim gonna step Broadway too now because of this

Morgenglut 2012- i was gonna say this wasn't bad until that 32nd roll and the 16th JS with the holds. these patterns are deplorable.

*Monster- i'm gonna **** you in your gay ass brandon

MIRACLE RUSH-

Minus 3- i can't believe i of all people am saying this but man did those jacks go to anything

Meteralice- didn't know metallica did touhou songs

Magewind- this is breathtaking. this is why i still play stepmania.

London- why did you step deadmouse

Lake Bestrial- pretty short but a decent file.

Dr. Honda- haha whoa this is really fun. **** your polyrhythms though.

*JPEG JIVE- better than I expected. funky patterns and overall great file.

Intro Outro- at first i was saying to myself "isn't the amda a renard alias" but it turns out i was way wrong. anyway this is boring.

*Interrupt- I'm so glad someone finally finished a file for this. love this to death absolutely love it.

Hunters Chance- wasn't feeling it until the color notes kicked in. boring intro but it picks up.

House Of Pleasure- almost got mad that you didn't step the vocals as color notes but it works for the file so you get a pass. file was unexpectedly fun

Healing Vision RMX- didn't play this on principal of this didn't need a restep but i'm sure it's not bad

*Miku Shit- hmm hmm hmm fast 12th jacks i wonder who could've stepped this wow i have no idea hmmmm hmmmmm. leonid you're gay as shit AND SO is this file. good for a hard pain file tho

Harvest Dance- oh man a DJ Kentaro file this better be good.
whoa **** this rules. wow uh damn. damn.

HANZ UP- this isn't hip-hop what the hell. yeah **** your jacks

Grave Consequences- excellent file. absolutely excellent.

GIGA BREAK- this is the weirdest dream theater song i've ever heard. fun though!

Foxy Lady- felt real classic. wasn't doing it for me but i could tell it was well done.

Far East Nightbird- a fucen plus

EXTERMINATION- nice duke nukem 3d file
anyway this is really really fun i can totally see myself playing this again

EXE- didn't you send this to that filed Subjectivemanias Collab Pack 3 kory tried to start lmao. anyway i still feel the same way. v well done but bland.

Excalibur- whoa this is neat. drum fills are stepped amazingly. great file.

Emotional this is probably a touhou song god dammit- WOW IT'S LIKE EMERALD SWORD ANIME HAHAHA I LOVE THIS

El Perdedor- haha i wasn't expecting much but this is quite well done. keep it up.

*Don't Wake Me From The Drama- played it the "right" way and as dodgeball file king i can pretty much say without a shadow of a doubt that your gimmick wasn't worth getting that mad about. mines or not the gimmick is kinda mediocre and nothing new (See: Festival Of Ghost Edit) but i'm proud of you for stepping out of typical file boundaries. keep pushing it but i wouldn't recommend continuing this gimmick. if you do, at least try to make the dodgeball mines go with something in the song, alrite?

Divided By 3- these ****ing patterns oh my god these could not be any worse

Couple Breaking- lmfao jumpstream. i can't take this seriously, sorry

*Come On- played this pre-release, love it and love you eastside. keep it up. we gotta collab on an xmod file whenever i get my hands on my laptop again

Chronon- i really love what you tried to do but i had to quit out after the holds kicked in because wow those patterns

CHECKIN U OUT GURL- **** yes **** yes **** yes **** yes **** yes **** yes **** yes

*Charing SWarem OF mty ouseketers- also played pre-release, still love it

(Centipede- i stepped this while I was drunk so it's pretty much filler/throwaway. i don't really care if you don't like it lmfao)

Cadaver Ateonteonthorjgh long title- nice Dethklok file. fun but christ the song is obnoxious haha

Buki- yeah no not really doing it for me. not horrible but not really my thing.

Breekan Through The Gate- can't express my love for this file enough <3

BONAMA-

Bingo Highway- i was going to say this was a great file until you ****ed it up with those bursts why the hell did you do that

(Bent Choral- i'm way proud of this one because i stepped it in just a day)

(Battlejam- i consider this my best file to date **** Autumn Insomnia)

(Battlefield- this was originally a joke file i made for Choofy but i threw it here because everyone loves/hates dodgeball files and i like to continue the trend of my files becoming more and more just giant parodies of themselves)

AVALON- nice mei restep sike this is pretty fun

SATAN SAMA- 15 syllable damn

ACtivaation sythensesis theory- despite this being a dream theater song i really dug the file and what you did with it. it flowed really well and overall was just p cool.

anime shit- can't do it i'm sorry

ABSTRACT ART- v good for a v2. good work. decidedly different than wc's file

getsufumaden- fucen love this ahhh

532nm- very energetic and very fun. patterns could be tweaked a little bit but the fun factor overrules that by a lot.

24th Century BOY-

seriously though this is alrite. nothing special.

[xferrarix]

i'm glad people are liking abstract art

it was hard for me to step something like that since i'm sure people have to know what kind of songs i generally step (vgm lol), when i first started stepping it i can be honest and say i was really lost as to what sounds i should be stepping and how i should make it so it feels different from wc. i didn't play wc's file for it until i finished mine, it was cool to see two different stepping styles make one song feel different

[bmah]

t-rogdor you should play Bingo Highway Heavy instead of Oni; it's Oni without all the gay walls
I insist it's better, please review heavy??

Also I don't plan on making more mine-oriented files in the future so don't worry about it

[ddr_f4n]

Did t-rogdor skip my file intentionally? D:

Oh and bmah sure

[wwplpmpn]

24 CENTURY BOY
fun but felt sort of run o' the mill, although had a sort of sophomoric charm to it

532NM
u def got it in u

ABSTRACT ART
cool file tho i cant help but thin k that the other one was more fun imo

ACCHI DE KOCCHI DE
i felt like u overemphasized the song a bit, like maybe if u shyed away from the jumps and hands a bit it would have been more fun but its def good quality work

ACTIVATION SYNTHESIS THEORY
this is probably technically perfect so i dont feel qualified to make a comment @__@

ADVENT OF PURINPU
really good its very good

AVALAN
a vivid, pastel, fully-formed composition translated into the rhythmic four-column language of arrows

BATTLEFELD
haha i get it-- if i hit a series of mines, it will make a loud abrasive oscillating sound similar to that of the bass in dubstep

BATTLEJAM
yo u should go step some telefon tel aviv

BENT CHORAL
good solid file

BINGO HIGHWAY
great fun, but since i have a variantof the masamursha gene, i find any jumpstream/handstream between tempos of 160-200 to be very fun

BONAMAMA
i could really use a bag raiders file or two

BREAKIN THRU THE GATE
idk how it happened but i got a mindblock on the first two measures in only 1 play. its really good file tho

BUKI
very memorable file, i like what you're trying 2 achieve, and it reminds of my attempts at making a simfile

CADAVER ANATMOMY
rly good/fun, ur song choices are very conducive to fun steps, althoght im not bgg fan of metal

CENTIPEDE
cammpy, and u also didn't let up on the mine density

CHARGING SWARM O F MOSUSEKETEERS
fun, fast, brutal. alexd factor carries over into simfile making

CHEKIN U OUT GIRL
u got the groove

CHRONON
deep n dark

CMON
u are the man pretty much all the time; amazing file

COUPLE BREAKING'
enjoyable and quad bait if i remember corectly

DIV BY 3
see ACTIVATION SYNTHESIS THEORY

DONT WAKE ME FROM THE DREAM
wooooa

EL PERDEDOR
steamy, sensual, sweet tender baby makin' jam

EMOTIONAL SKYSCRAPER
how u make this ??__??

EXCALIBUR
spectacular file, very enjotyable

EXE
best incarnation of it to date, gj

EXTERMINATION
oh man this is so funky, excellent file

FAR EAS NIGHTBIRD
def a highlight of the pack

FOXY LADY
i dun remember but its probably really good

GIGA BREAK
full of genius and excellence

GRAVE CONSQUENCE
feels like all ur files follow a specific formula but thats hardly a bad thing; lots of ppl try to imitate ur style, but when u play a genuine gd file, u can def tell that it's a gd file

k im done for today, im review rest another day gratz 2all the simfile authors, all of it was fun n keep making them!!!

thank ya! it's funny, I took a few years off and I'm still driven to step almost exactly how I used to. I tried to shake some things up though.

gracias! song choice was basically my focus here. if a single person gets intrigued and lookd up more Wavves on youtube/whatever, I'll feel like the time I put in paid off. kinda nuts that you were also considering stepping some because it's random as **** lol

[Charlo]

I just downloaded this shit. All the files I have played have been top-notch. I don't do reviews but everything has been fun so far.

[Wineandbread]

wwplp's battlefield review literally best review of the year

updated a bit (I'm slow):

24th Century Boy
(Heavy) - Thought the jumpjack [12] towards the beginning/early-mid were kind of out of place. The mines at the beginning were unnecessary. Couldn't tell from playthrough if 24th stream on the percussion was accurate or not, hue. I thought there were a few flow issues but otherwise not a bad file.
(Oni) - More or less same review as Heavy. Stream patterns are bleh for me but I suck so don't mind me

532nm
(Heavy) - Wasn't really feeling this chart. Poorly watered down from Oni (I assume this is the second chart). I felt like it would have been more appropriate to focus more on the main synth for the easier chart.
(Oni) - Not too bad. Drum buildup mines weren' entirely necessary and while I appreciate your technicality, I think it would have been more enjoyable to open up that column and differentiate patterns in that section. Rest of the file is decent.

Abstract Art
(Standard) - Tight file. Thought it was pretty fun. Nothing much else to say.
(Heavy) - Nothing really to say, good file. One little thing that irked me was the holdjacks in the beginning; I know you were emphasizing the high-hat but it was kinda hard to read on my noteskin when I was playing lol x)

Acchi de Kocchi de
n1 bg
(Standard) - A lil' repetitive due to length but surprisingly fun.
(Heavy) - Kinda dumpy. Standard is a more appropriate chart imo. Some of the hold patterns were ugh to hit, but again I'm bad. Still decent though.

Activation Synthesis Theory
this is a restep right
(Standard) - Pretty cool. Pretty hard pain for a standard xd. I feel this is probably bordering on a marathon file. After playing the other two difficulties, I think you should have simplified this farther cause the difficulty gap between the standard and heavy is not very large tbh (or maybe I just don't remember enough places that were different cause they all seemed basically in the middle somewhere where you added a few jumps)
(Heavy) - Nice.
(Beginner) - dat techinical. I didn't really play this (i know I'd fail) but I looked at it with FailOff. Fine as a beginner scoring file.

Advent of Purinou ! Satan-sama
(Standard) - Fine. I remember having a minor complaint about something but I forget now so (o:
(Heavy) - Fun.
(Oni) - Fun.

AVALON
(Standard) - ook
(Heavy) - sasakure.UK :') This is pretty dope, I like it. Plays exactly as I heard the song.

Battlefield
At first I was like "hell no I'm not playing 4 marathon charts", ya got me man
(Standard) - Really good easy chart I thought.
(Heavy) - Good stuff. Some of the patterns are ugh though from my point of view. One thing I didn't particularly like was your 2-note interpretation on the in the middle (the 12ths), but given the rest of the file I suppose it's consistent
(Oni) - mines, jacks. hardpain (not much of a review eh)
(Beginner) - Oni feat. more jacks

BattleJam
(Oni) - I thought this was pretty enjoyable. At first I thought this was a xmod file cause of the bpm switches I saw as I was playing through it lol. Minewall at the end was a lol. Why no other charts :/

Bent Choral
Damn 3 rog files in a row wut
(Heavy) - Pretty solid file. End drags a bit. I won't lie I was turned off by the song preview lol
(Oni) - Cool. Although I didn't particularly like the stream in the early section, didn't compliment the song very well imo.

Bingo Highway
(Standard) - P slick. Enjoyed the middle especially.
(Heavy) - Holy diffculty upgrade batman. This is what I thought Oni was going to be like lol. I liked it for the most part. I found the 'wee' mines more of an annoyance that something to keep me on my feet (fingers?) in the parts where you used them. Also the one section where you replace The (32nd?) synth was kind of a flow-wrecker. It's already plenty difficult, no reason to mine that place up when everything else was stepped imo
(Oni) - Watched the chart. Dump-tier difficulty. Have fun~

Bonamana
(Standard) - Fine.
(Heavy) - Not bad. Playing through I couldn't really tell if the 64ths/192nds you used were entirely accurate but I'll give it the benefit of the doubt I guess

Breaking Through the Gate
(Standard) - Fine.
(Heavy) - Great file. Not much else to say.

buki
uhh.. relevant graphics?
(Heavy) - Fine for a simpiflication. Complaints are same as Oni.
(Oni) - For 4key I should you should be a little more loose in utilizing different patterns imo. Also seems kind of right-hand biased file to me. Flow felt lacking in certain places. Still a decent file though

Cadaver Anatomy - Extracton of Viscera
lol green text on green bg
(Light) - Didn't look at it.
(Standard) - Same complaints as heavy.
(Heavy) - Bleh. The layering was okay. Some holds seemed a tad too long, other holds I didn't really understand. I didn't find the file very enjoyable though. (as a side note might have something to do with the song)

Centipede
(Heavy) - Intro dragged out, hi-hat barely audible to me on my speakers (could have started at "this centipede is a predator" area imo) Rest of the file is fine.
(Oni) - Dodgeball. Looks fine. Main complaint is the 32nd drum buildup that should have been 24ths, which sorta surprised me coming from you

Charging Swarm of Mousketeers
(Heavy) - Nice shameless mine plug at the beginning. File is solid. Why no other charts :/


Checking You Out
(Standard) - Great.
(Heavy) - Chill file. Didn't see anything out of place really. Nice job.

Chronon
(Standard) - Not bad. Didn't like certain 48th/64th selections that you put in but I'm nitpicking.
(Heavy) - Solid. I didn't like the oversimplification of the percussion towards the beginning. I think I understand what you're trying to do but it felt unncessary and I would have preferred to see the phrases more accurately stepped there. Otherwise a pretty good file.
(Oni) - Okay. Wasn't really feeling the quads. One of the hold sections you have some ninja hi-hats in the midst that was difficult to read. Ending had a bunch of mixed 48th/64ths phrases to which I couldn't really tell what the 48ths were going to, not sure about that last 4321repeat pattern either.

C'mon
(Heavy) - Sick xmod file, fun fun. Layering felt kinda weird in a few places. where other charts :/

Couple Breaking
(Heavy) - Okay. Few layering/PR discrepancies I think? Mines in quieter section weren't really doing anything. Overall felt a little bland to me.
(Oni) - Mediocre. Beginning and end stream sections added for the the purpose of adding streams (the mid section stream was fine though). Stream pattern choices kinda eh to me.

Divided by Three
(Heavy) - Fine. Felt a little offsync to me at some points.
(Oni) - Cool file. However for some reason the file felt a little lackluster to play as a whole, idk. Again, felt offsync at parts.

[Choofers]

aite

I like all those wwplp reviews. constructive feedback is important, but building people up is cool 2. no one has to make these simfiles, so everyone deserves credit for trying.
