What I always hated about FFR

[robyextreme]

I'm the type of player who's been playing far to long, I come back every now and then and play for a while.

But WHY is mashing rewarded? I can just hit every arrow 2-3 times before it actually gets there and keep my combo going. That is so dumb, it should come down to a Perfect/Good/Average to keep a combo going; and where misses/boos breaks them.

I don't like stepmania, only played it a couple times. I'm pretty sure they don't have this in their mechanics. But this is almost worth switching games over, most people I know play SM over this one anyway..

Congrats, you just realized why most people don't care much about FC's.

FFR scores should just be based on PA rather Combo..

Thats why I wish FFR put a boo cap on songs to limit the amount of boos you can get on a song.

That is exactly how Stepmania works.

wow




About topic, well... Yeah, mashing kind of sucks, because what really matters at rhythm games is your accuracy, making speed kind of unfair. But speed songs, specially at SM, are really fun. So, imo, both are fun and necessary for anyone's gameplay.

Also,

Agreed.

Mashing isn't rewarded in anyway except for unlocking Here We Go. Mashed scores are worthless on top of that, a score with 300 boos is certainly not a good score.

Re: What I always hated about FFR

This is a major problem for a lot of good players, especially me. Why you may ask? If I pull 15-0-0-1 in a 2000 note song, but lose my combo around 1000, someone who mash FC's the song with 314-5-0-100 will still have a higher rank than the 15-0-0-1 score, and that pisses me off. A lot of my really good PA scores on FGO's are overshadowed by mashed FC's, it's really annoying.

This.

Makes me wonder if we had never implemented autofail how much more frustration there would be with this problem. What were they thinking?

I agree I've gotten 1 miss on RATO countless amounts of time and because of combo based scoring the total score turns to crap >.<

Combo based scoring sucks dick. 'nuff said.
