this should really help me out in AAA'ing and getting skill tokens

Seriously--like for those specific requirements where you have to miss a certain amount of arrows...this is good for Pseudo Skill tokens too.

Sorry..I think it would be too distracting. It's a nice idea, but the less things on the screen, the better. I actually think there should be an option to remove the perfect/miss/good/boo/average that appears on screen.

Which is also the same reason why I said to make it an optional function in the options menu. ;D

Well that's what the counter will do. It won't remove that entirely, it will just put it on the bottom of the playing field where the pre-adjusted score is, along with your current combo.

Yes, I would want it to be something you can turn on or off.

I like the accuracy and combo, I'd want those to stay, and have the counter on the bottom as well.

In-Game Accuracy Counter

You lost me there.

I kind of wish I'd thought of the counter at the bottom before the life bar thing.

EDIT:

Any chance I can get someone to change thread title to "In-Game Accuracy Counter" ?

You still want the total score counter? Well--hmm.

GB, do you have any suggestions as to how you can make BOTH of them fit?

I think this is what ninjaKIWI is talking about when he says he wants both:

Re: Life Bar + Autofail Suggestions

The more stuff you need to actively display and change during gameplay, the slower and more prone to lagging the game becomes. How many bells and whistles do you need piled on before you can be happy with the game, and how much in terms of lag-free play are you willing to give up to get it? Would you want all of these features if some small amount of the time, lag would just give you a random miss potentially costing you some very hard and impressive FC/AAA?

Re: Life Bar + Autofail Suggestions

Devonin, what we've said so far for this idea:

PA score keeper, which can be optional, and if not selected--can just be left out. This will keep the old score counter. Either or is what we've been shooting for now.

I really don't see the lag that's gonna happen with adding the PA score counter, cause it is updating on every arrow with a specific value just like the 5 digit score value.

5 values of scoring for the total score, 5 values for the PA system. Lag really won't be the big issue here with the option of having one or the other.

Re: Life Bar + Autofail Suggestions

Yea I'm not suggesting we add anything on, all I'm suggesting is we replace the pre-adjusted score with the PA counter on the bottom, and remove the big blue combo number and accuracy display area. It would be something you can turn on or off in the settings menu.

I know virtually nothing about flash, but my guess is that we're not going to be creating any more lag issues with this than there might already be.
