I played DDR for the first time ever today

Re: I played DDR for the first time ever today

Accomplishments today (if anyone cares):

Got to the break in Max 300 Heavy
FC'd Matsuri Japan (first 9 foot FC)
AA'd LoM Standard (first 9 foot AA)

I'm definitely getting better...the only patterns I can't do are 486 crossovers and spins (I don't have any idea how I'll ever learn spins)

Re: I played DDR for the first time ever today

Just memorize the bpm slowdowns on SM and you'll never lose again. It's how I passed Sakura Heavy now with ALMOST a AA. Just hard for me to FC the final slowdown at the end. Max 300 I could beat anytime now with at least a B, because I know how the stepchart is already, just need stamina to do better.

DAMN you are getting good fast. I am guessing you are doing PSM on Heavy but it really is no different to PS. PSM on Heavy is PS backwards.

Re: I played DDR for the first time ever today

lol, where was I when Shash played his first game of DDR? Just read the whole thread. Nice job, Shash. If you can, try getting a home version.

Nice job, Shash. If you can, try getting a home version.

no game systems besides an N64

Yesterday I had a pretty nice accomplishment, AA'd three songs consecutively, all 8 footers (Sync, Cow Girl, and Crash), which was really nice. Failed the extra because I just can't read reverse at all XD

Today I AA'd Rhythm and Police finally, woohoo.

Question...are there any songs between the difficulty level of, say, Sakura and PSM 270? I can't find any, besides horrendous stupid crap that requires either spins (break down) or jumpstream (stoic and dxy lmfao gay) I'm really looking for non-crossover 8th stream at like between 200 and 270...is there any at all in this game? My problem is that I just can't pass PSM 270 because the retarded crossover 8ths section kills me, or any of the MAX songs because they're just too fast...but I can A Sakura and Bag and pretty much any 9 footer that doesn't have gay as **** patterns...and I know stepping up my speed gradually is the best way to get better.

Oh and Brian, yes I will be a CMod whore forever, yes I will be a bar-raper forever. I have seen no good reason anywhere not to use both of those things whenever possible.

Drop Out.

EDIT: Oh snap, between Sakura and PS? No. The only song betwen then is Xepher which is 170 16ths.

that's retarded as hell then

that'd be like FFR having no songs between 100 and 150 BPM 16ths, bah which dumb**** thought that was a good idea

bleh how the hell does anyone get good enough to do PSM+ then

Re: I played DDR for the first time ever today

ITG or just practice. I had to go from songs like So Deep andn HVAM to Max 300 when I started because all I had was an EM2 in my area. Just play Max last until you nail it, I guess.

Re: I played DDR for the first time ever today

Re: I played DDR for the first time ever today

Obviously there are a lot of people better than me at DDR, I've been playing for what, 4 months total? I'm improving pretty well though, two and a half weeks ago I couldn't pass R + P heavy and I AA'd it today, so yeah hopefully I'll keep improving.
