FFR Exclusive SuperNOVA Info

So is that a flat TV monitor on that? Looks nice.

Also, what is that BZ credit system thing? Is it part of Supernova or did the arcade place add it on?

It's on all the machines. You have an employee put money on the key that you saw in the last pic, and stick it into the device you saw in the pic before it. It's installed on every last machine where coins would normally go.

Re: Pff

I don't really care, to be honest. Fascination MaxX is only, what, 600BPM scroll speed? I can't react that fast. My legs are too long and I play in the middles of the panels. Also, my balance isn't very good since I'm tall and thin. Besides, I never said that it wasn't fun, did I?

PS - Pleading guilty to Bar Rape accusation out of left field. =)

Lastly, to keep on topic. Fascination is difficult. Very, very difficult in a technical sense. It doesn't drain you like the other MAXes tend to. It makes you think above all else.

It goes 400 bpm, and it's definately possible to move your feet that fast even if you play middle of the panels. (like me)

Anyway I like the song line up, I also like the fact that they added the note mod to it, they let u pick solo before but never note so thats pretty cool.

1 thing I dont like is the fact that it only counts jumps as 1 to your combo.

Not saying this affects me or anyone as a player but IMO jumps should always count as 2 because it does take twice as much energy to jump than to single step, so it should deserve some sort of reward.

Anyway it looks really cool. The songs the machine too and everything so I can't wait to see it in the arcades.

Don't really dig the fact that it went back to 5th mix scoring, because I don't appreciate getting an SDG and a boo, thus getting only an A.

The rest I definitely dig, and I'm excited to see that the official DoLL video was added in. Makes me very anxious to play Supernova

[Novacaine]

wow I never knew that, though ive never played 5th mix since u just explained it sounds like DDR Extreme for PS2 which is definately a minus, anyway like i said the things I do like are the new mod and the songs.

I think that it'll probably just attract people that suck at hard songs on ITG... Thats about it... =\

Except that people who suck at hard songs on ITG make up about 99% of the market for dancing games.

On the other hand, you can get more greats than perfects and still end up with a AA. I agree, though. The system is pretty flawed, and there was really no reason for it to change. Does anyone know if this is still a pending idea?

RE: Pff

Looks awesome!

Can't wait 'til Idaho gets one... Yes... I do mean IDAHO... I remember how cool it was when Boise finally got an Extreme... How long will it be before it gets Supernova? Idaho doesn't even have ITG1 or 2 yet

All well... Something to extremely look foward to!

RE: Pff

Note: This is not exactly 5th mix scoring. It's much closer to a DP% rating.

Also, who in Winnipeg hasn't AAAed Legend of Max? E'ERYONE HAS. DUH. lol[/sarcasm]

FMAXX's scroll speed is up to 600 bpm on Extra Stage since x1.5 is forced. I was surprised how manageable those parts were at the arcade since my adrenaline was running. However, it's almost useless trying to get OMES because of all the noncombos the "new" pads throw out.

But nice pictures. Pretty much same in my opinion -- fun, but needs much work.

I will see if I can get enough ahead in my work again this week to get out to BZN.

Looks awsome. Hope us in NJ will get it soon. Well knowing 8 On The Break we will, they had the ITG2 beta first ya know. Still, I dislike the fact that all the Dancemania is from 2003-2004... "TOXIC", "A LOVE LIKE THIS", all from EX, quite old. But overall it's very cool

RE: Pff

thats friggon sweet! i wanna go try it!!

[Ghettobarney]

RE: Pff

Ive never played in the ITG but it looks pretty cool. Damn, you guys are so lucky to be able to play a beta of DDRSN. I live in texas, wich sucks. The only DDR's I know of withing driving distance of my house is 4th mix single and DDRX at a mountasia arcade. Houston blows :P. DDR rules, it's to bad I suck at it ( I can only do 8 footers )

[InZaneFlea]

Wow, I live like 10 minutes from BZ Naperville and I haven't even gone there to see this? How long is it going to be there does anyone know?

[locomotion]

hopefully NJ will get one soon.....it looks fukin awsome
