FFR Exclusive SuperNOVA Info

[Reikobi]

Wow. The look of the new machine is appealing, first of all, as are what I've seen of the menus and screens. Dunno about everyone else, but thats important to me. Wish I could've been there to check it out, but I'm all the way on the other side of the country.

Looks like it has a decent song selection too. I've recently gotten into IIDX, so when I saw DoLL I was liek omgrofltehbbqgg. I can't wait to try out Fascination MaxX. Saw some of my old favorites.

I'm sure that when the systems are released, most of the current flaws will be solved, like the very noticably offbeat arrows, the oversensitivity of the pads, and missing screws , but a couple things that will likely remain bother me.

1. Jumps should count as two steps... As someone said earlier, doing a jump requires more energy, and, more fundamentally, there are TWO arrows there. The logic escapes me.

2. Scoring system. Flawed indeed, I'm not so sure how this system works, but the idea that I can get all perfects (I'm not quite good enough for the aforementioned, but I can dream), and a boo because of an over-responsive arrow and end up with an A is sort of silly. The other scoring system is, in my opinion, much more reflective of overall skill.

As I understand it, though, both of these things are also in the home version of DDR Extreme, which I played at home for a good amount of time and enjoyed very much, so I'll get used to it. :P

Overall, Supernova looks great, and I cant wait to wear out the pads a little myself when it hits the arcades.



P.S: This is NOT a which music game is the best thread. Like ITG better? Go to an ITG forum. This is not a bar raping cryfest either. Some people like to use the bar, I use it myself often on harder songs (11+ ITG), it's their way of playing. Hate the world for it in your own special corner if you need to, but stop harassing bar users. It's a shame this has to be said over and over again.
