Re: Songs of the Week (April 6, 2013)

There's actually hardly any better way to step that part of the song. Me and AJ were fully aware of the spike that part of the song would cause, and we tried many different combinations of patterns - almost none of them were really easy to hit. What you see was the best possibly way of stepping the guitar solo. If you tried stepping it for yourself, I doubt you could make it any easier.

This x1000; no matter what we did, it was just a nightmare, haha.

Öngyilkos Vasárnap
Musician: Venetian Snares
Step Artist: mi40
Song Genre: Misc
Difficulty: 53
Song Length: 2:10

Someone just get a V2 going. The chart there is 100% boring, the colors are honestly completely useless (They emphasize nothing worth emphasizing.) The whole chart is just 2:10 of boring, poorly thought out nonsense. The hands are just unneeded at this level of difficulty, your rolls look like they have ghost notes based off what I'm hearing (can't check cause I don't have the chart in dream ect.) What did you do, step this in 10 minutes? Hell must have froze over, or this wouldn't have made it in as it is. What a waste of the song. I very much want to see a V2 that doesn't involve wasting more time on this version of it (AKA no skill token, throw it in purchased or something.)

Re: Songs of the Week (April 6, 2013)

asdfmovie song: Started getting bland and repetitive about a minute and a half in. File itself is jokey though.

dr1: Nothing really going on that's interesting. It's just a continuing drum pattern that's speeding up.

Lorem Ipsum: It's a surprise to see Virt's name with this song. Felt like the solo was overstepped and spiked the difficulty immensely, but it was stepped cleanly at least.

Öngyilkos Vasárnap: I'd rather play Necros' over this, sorry. Your jump placements to snares, cymbals, and bass weren't consistent at all.

W: A nice easy file, not sure why this is getting called "mediocre" all because it's targeted for lower skilled players.

Your One: Not sure what to think about this one. Had a pretty nasty trill to roll transition but still seemed to flow nicely.

Yo dog, I have a really good idea, but it's a bit crazy and it may take a little bit of effort.

You say you don't Ji's file. That's cool man. You say that someone should get a V2 going. That's also cool.

But instead of mindlessly bashing a file and asking for someone else to make a file that will please you, how about you fucking open stepmania and restep it your goddamned self?

That's a 69, maybe even less.

Someone else had mentioned making a chart for it, due to bad memory I didn't wanna toss out the wrong name, I've done that before and am not going to make that mistake again consciously.

All of those are legit things that are "wrong" with the file from what I can see without opening it in editor. There's no "mindless" thing I brought up there. The colors don't emphasize anything that was in need of the emphasis they give it. The rolls look like they have more notes than needed. Again it is something I can't confirm, but is an actual issue I or someone else can voice.

Bear in mind, "wrong" "mindless" and "critique" are subjective terms and are used extremely loosely.

You need to stop skimming my posts and actually bother reading into them just slightly. I feel as if that post voices actual issues with it than could more or less be confirmed by opening it if I could. I'd happily apologize if I was wrong obviously. I'm using the available resources to offer the comments I can, while adding in my opinion it needs a V2, and adding I'd like to not have to unlock it via playing the original. Sure it's a little blunt but that's just how I am.

I don't see anything wrong with that post in the slightest. It's what I would consider the fairest commentary I can offer without opening it in editor. Stop overreacting to me stating my opinion with vague reasoning that I cannot help because I don't have it in the editor. It's commentary, not a critique. I cannot back up what I say unless the chart is given to me to look at. Which I cannot ask for with the site's rules. If it was offered, I'd be more than happy to look at it closer and check what I said as best I could.

Nah, I disagree. When the song starts speeding up, there's a bunch of curve ball jumps that somewhat break the flow of the roll that goes on throughout the entire file.

And if you break rhythm, well... your PA is going to take a very heavy hitting considering how fast it gets, recovering might nab you a whole bunch of goods, averages, misses, and boos. Dohoho.

Re: Songs of the Week (April 6, 2013)

fun files.

also i agree that dr1 should be slightly lower, but 69 is just lol. but then i remembered bballa said stuff like 300 should be higher than a 70 and figured he might be trolling. anyhow maybe a 71/72 IMO.

also asdfsong is fun but not worthy of oni unlock imo, 64 fits better. and spitfires file should be higher than 62 maybe 64 as well

Re: Songs of the Week (April 6, 2013)

alright now that I'm home from the store, I can respond a bit more creatively

Someone else had mentioned making a chart for it, due to bad memory I didn't wanna toss out the wrong name, I've done that before and am not going to make that mistake again consciously.

I've made a chart for it a while ago, Necros has made a file for it, iirc a people on the FFR Party skype has mentioned making a file for it. But none of them have done it except Ji. If you really have an issue with this file, then make a new one.

All of those are legit things that are "wrong" with the file from what I can see without opening it in editor. There's no "mindless" thing I brought up there. The colors don't emphasize anything that was in need of the emphasis they give it. The rolls look like they have more notes than needed. Again it is something I can't confirm, but is an actual issue I or someone else can voice.

I'm just gonna go ahead and tie this into this quote.

Bear in mind, "wrong" "mindless" and "critique" are subjective terms and are used extremely loosely.

Yeah, "wrong," "mindless," and "critique," are all subjective but that's not the issue here. The issue is that every time a file is released that you don't like, you present your opinion in an objective tone and then say "subjectivemanias," as a cop-out or something ps italics.

You need to stop skimming my posts and actually bother reading into them just slightly. I feel as if that post voices actual issues with it than could more or less be confirmed by opening it if I could. I'd happily apologize if I was wrong obviously. I'm using the available resources to offer the comments I can, while adding in my opinion it needs a V2, and adding I'd like to not have to unlock it via playing the original. Sure it's a little blunt but that's just how I am.

I read into your FFR/Stepmania posts all the time because I enjoy the game and other people's opinions but fuck, you're literally a FFR meme right now, no one is going to take you seriously unless you change your tone.

It's what I would consider the fairest commentary I can offer without opening it in editor.

If you don't like this file on a playthrough, why would you need to see it in the editor? I highly doubt that watching the file through the editor will change your opinion about it.

Stop overreacting to me stating my opinion with vague reasoning that I cannot help because I don't have it in the editor.

I didn't say that. I didn't even imply that. Where did you get that from lol.

It's commentary, not a critique.

Oh okay dog, got it, super cool, wonderful. Fan. Tastic. Real.

If it was offered, I'd be more than happy to look at it closer and check what I said as best I could.

No one would give you an FFR chart for your critique because, quite frankly, you have next to no merit when it comes to creating simfiles.

Re: Songs of the Week (April 6, 2013)

Veteran songs from last week will now be released to all FFR users

Looks like this didn't go through properly, I can't see the songs.

For the songs I could play, the difficulties do seem pretty skewed. asdfmovie seems much too easy for a 66, while Your One's evil part doesn't seem to be reflected in its 62. Very fun songs though.

Re: Songs of the Week (April 6, 2013)

I've addressed this many times before.

Songs are released on a timer (in most cases, a 7-day timer). Because I assume the previous game manager released the songs LATER than when I released mine's (probably was released on Saturday night or even possibly Sunday), that timer has yet to expire. I make a generalization in each SOTW thread, but to be specific, it's 7 days from the previous time songs were released from last week.

We try to release songs on a consistent basis, but the exact timing may waver within a day or a day and a half, typically within the weekend.
