Re: R1 - Actual Song Difficulties V2

I have a question, are the difficulties ordered for a spread player or a one-handed player?

for example the two-handed jumptrill in battle theme #37 would be difficult for a one-handed player but breezing for a spread player

Does anyone have an example of something that would be EASIER for a one-handed player though? I doubt one-handed is a playing style considered in the ratings at all - any other playing style is more powerful than it (and that's not to dis one-handers). I mean, between index, spread, and whatever wanky hybrid style you can come up with that combines the two or whatever, the levels are pretty much covered.

Re: R1 - Actual Song Difficulties V2

By the way, is it just me or Haruka and Kire Kire Mayoi aren't listed in the first page?

Lots of new songs and ones that have been around for a short while have not yet been added to the first post.

the (12)(14)(12)(14) etc patterns in aim anthem

IMHO

that's the only song I remember people saying is easier one-handed

Re: R1 - Actual Song Difficulties V2

I think AIM and Club are fun, i beat most spread players at them ^^. I need to go back to my jacking later. I think The Final Fantasy should be bumped up a difficulty cause of Full combo difficulties. Those patterns are nuts. Also how is Rondo V1 only a challenging?

how is rondo v2 only challenging? They both should be challenging IMO, and FF7LBF is really easy for that high an FMO, the patterns are easy to read and are extremely easy to deal with for spread players, not sure about index though

Setsojou Hyakka Ryouran is twice as hard as FF7LBF, I think if any FMO needs bumping up it's that, that is not a 79, the other 79s are much easier, hell, my Setsoujou score is no where near my EHHS score, and that's an 80! (3-0-0-0 to 9-0-0-0)

FotBB should be moved up just due to backround and speed issues. It glitches on my comp due to backround and is like impossible still due to the speed of the 1 handed trills and stuff, definitely higher than EHHS

Re: R1 - Actual Song Difficulties V2

FFLBF is hands down harder to AAA than Setsujou. FFLBF is faster, has 32nd bursts, and fast jump-streams. I havn't even AAAd it yet. T_T

FotBB is harder than EHHS imo. Trills > jump-streams.

Re: R1 - Actual Song Difficulties V2

someone needs to put the tournament songs in already...

Re: R1 - Actual Song Difficulties V2

Anything with jumpjacks that aren't alternating between up and down are easier one-handed than spread, just because it requires less coordination, but that's pretty much the only pattern.

Re: R1 - Actual Song Difficulties V2

Couldn't you just do it index though?

Re: R1 - Actual Song Difficulties V2

Yes but I'm comparing spread and one-handed

Re: R1 - Actual Song Difficulties V2

I'd agree that jacks are easier to do one handed, I suppose. I know several one handers good enough to do AIM Anthem wreck it (e.g Zageron, irionman, etc.), often because they are friendly for that style.
However, you can also factor in patterns that are virtually anti-spread, such as fast one handed trills. Provided you have the speed, those can arguably be considered much easier to do one handed (and index, of course). This can also apply to any patterns biased to one hand.

P.S I find Haruka one of the easiest 7s, IMO. It was also one of my first Difficult AAAs.

Re: R1 - Actual Song Difficulties V2

Nah, one-handed trills aren't harder than trilling one-handed. The one-hander has an advantage because all trills take that same motion so they have more practice, but a good spread player will practice one-handed trills enough to where they're not a problem.

Re: R1 - Actual Song Difficulties V2

why can't harmonix be this good at setting difficulty ratings for Rock Band, seriously.

FFR's only mistakes are like hard 8 vs easy 9 etc, hmx often rates things like 3 full difficulties off, and the game uses a 7 scale.

maybe i should try to get hired there >_>

Agreed, but wouldn't FOTB be easier to AAA than the jumpstreams? Or unless the blue arrow syndrome ****s up the PA. =\


I think there should be V2s on songs with only blue arrows and off-beat arrows like Revolutionary Etude.

Re: R1 - Actual Song Difficulties V2

Okay, but for the purposes of this thread, the original question was "is one-handed even considered in the ratings", and if you can just go ahead and do something index just as easily (or more so) as you can do it one-handed, then why even consider one-handed? Maybe compared to spread it's easier one-handed, but index is still a two-handed playing style, so there's no real reason to factor one-handing into the ratings in the first place.

As for one-handed trills, again... index. And if you can switch from spread to index and back again quickly, then even more power to you.
