Re: FUTURE DOMINATORS (IcyWorld) 4k
this
of course it's fine to have your own way of stepping files, but it sorta gets stale after a while, especially considering song choice. at this point i could take the steps of the first 2 measures of WLL oni chorus, place them in any of the other sharpnel files you've done, and it'd be hard to tell if the steps are original or not. i've already made 2 and a half (collab with eze on one) sharpnel files and i already feel like there isn't much more i can do with the song choice or steps to make each subsequent one unique (aside from shitting out steps like 11eleven rofl) edit: imo scoring well on a long marathon file should be achieved by having good consistency and skill instead of barely scraping by because of a few dumb difficulty spikes like in this. part of the reason nobody really challenges files like 11eleven and color of giggles is because the difficulty scale varies so much, and there's a lot of filler before you get to the hard part.

If you'd like to know how I layer every single jumpstream/handstream file click spoiler: For the most part though I find it to be a very brainless process to make jumpstream/handstream, and most of the time the only variation to me is the BPM and how densely layered it is (also I like jumpstreaming to different songs, instead of going to TOML everytime I want to play a jumpstream file). I haven't made a 210 bpm handstream file as dense as this yet, so to me it's nice to have this file as a "next level" sort of deal. Someone as good as yourself won't find these files appealing. But to someone like me who wants to build stamina, and go to the next level, it's perfect. Kn33Gr0w told me something a long time ago, it's "I make files for myself, other people liking them is just a bonus", I've followed that standard ever since then. If 1 other person likes this file, I'm happy with that, if not that's cool too I'll still play it. Quote:
TL;DR: And as I mentioned to Dynamo, this file doesn't appeal to you because either you're so good that it's boring, or maybe you prefer one of my other files over it. I admit I'm flat out of ideas for making new handstream/jumpstream files, I feel I've covered every possibility for a different way to throw things at you. But I'll keep making them because to me they're fun to play, and offer varying degree's of challenge based on the song choice. If you have an idea for a different way for me to layer shit, please tell me though.

Re: FUTURE DOMINATORS (IcyWorld) 4k
The issue I had wasn't with how you structure files and layer stuff (as I said NB3 and 4 are insanely fun packs but the layering concepts are very uniform across the board). The song choices and lengths are what made the files diverse, so if there is anything I'm at odds with in these recent Sharpnel files, it's the fact that:
a) There are a number of Sharpnel files that sound extremely similar and are at a similar bpm b) The length of these files are consistently upwards of 4-5 minutes It wouldn't matter to me if you structured these files to have something wacky like 24th jumpstrream the whole time for example, the patterning isn't the issue for me. Perhaps this song is 210bpm and it's considerably faster than others like it but what about Magic Cycles/Mmmmm/Nergal Burning/Cmnd+Ctrl+C ? I didn't play First Flight because I knew it wouldn't be dense js/hs, I played it because the song was unique and not a Sharpnel track All I'm saying is it might be a good idea to keep the song choices diverse as you did with the other NB Packs (there were a few Fleshgod Apocalypse marathon files but they ranged in BPM, rhythmic structure (not patterning), and raw difficulty sufficiently enough that each file was ultimately much different than the others. No need to take my comments (or any others for that matter) too personally as well. I'm trying to give some input on the direction I feel the Nuclear Blast packs are going based on what I'm seeing released lately; it is just an opinion after all Last edited by Dynam0; 12-18-2013 at 01:46 AM.. |

Re: FUTURE DOMINATORS (IcyWorld) 4k
Ah, So it's more so you're at odds with my song choice! Sorry I just really really love dj sharpnel, I wanted to have more in the pack to fit my own satisfaction for Sharpnel files. There's plenty of Non-Sharpnel files in the pack currently, and there will be plenty of Diversity in future song selections as well.
Shoulda just said so man xd I'm not so much taking it personally, I was just confused as to what exactly you were trying to get at (the song choice), and could only logically come to how I was stepping the files (clones). So I was slightly baffled is all, since I've been making the same types of files since nb3

Re: FUTURE DOMINATORS (IcyWorld) 4k
Something about your last 2 files just kind of feels like forced over-layering.
Maybe I'm crazy and inexperienced yet but idk it just doesn't look as refined as some of the older sharpnel stamina files youve made |

Re: FUTURE DOMINATORS (IcyWorld) 4k
quite dense, but I don't see the problem with that or with the jacks. I'll try and survive this beast when I have time

Re: FUTURE DOMINATORS (IcyWorld) 4k
kk, since this chart is apparently so hard, i'll do what i did for wll and gate openerz and make another difficulty that is still quite challenging but remove some of the stuff that makes it slightly too hard. and then we can all be happy (and i don't say forced, or overlayered cause i don't believe in that, it's just hard)
