My question, can you upgrade the supernova cabinet to ITG2?

Seriously though, the game looks pretty solid but I'm still going to be an ITG fanboy bitch. Love the new noteskin Still hate the pads.

LVN4GOD · 02-17-2006, 11:37 PM

The scrolls you tap constantly instead of holding them? Nice.

**Neonatrias** · 02-17-2006, 11:45 PM

No, Solo is just an option. =) And nforcer played on Note (Too bright for my tastes). They do Solo for effect at the end of Fascination, though. If you've ever seen a full video for FaxX then you'll know that the end streams are charted on-beat, but they're not written normally. So they're all purple. It's screws with your mind.

Rolls according to ITG2 maybe 1 too.

Look very interesting.. I'd like to press those buttons.

I've never played any DDR's past MAX2, so this looks realy exciting! ^^ (although I have played ITG2)

lord_carbo · 02-18-2006, 01:23 PM

Wow, it looked like he was just tapping the arrows :P Sometimes I have to freaking pound certain arrows in some arcades.

anyways, thats how we dont play here in Winnipeg, we got bar-less and we get pretty damn high scores. ( AAA Legend of Maxx and crap like that )

Just an opinion, no more hugging, much more fun

DDR SuperNova looks cool but ITG2 Pump It Up won me over

WE get pretty high scores? Yeah, because we all know that people from Winnipeg have AAA'd Legend of Max, amirite? The only guy that is remotely close to it is Pickles, and he hasn't done it yet, sorry...

As for your nobar philosophy, you probably suck at the game, so just stfu.

That said, suprnova looks like crap, and ITG3 will rape it... But I guess the fact that DDR is still trying to stay alive is pretty cool, we'll see how it turns out...

**Snapps** · 02-18-2006, 02:05 PM

This game wasn't made just because they wanted to for fans. They made it so they can get ITG out of the scene, period.

Anuj · 02-18-2006, 02:08 PM

I think that it'll probably just attract people that suck at hard songs on ITG... Thats about it... =\

Or Konami faithfuls that still like DDR for it's own unique reasons, like me.

StickFigs · 02-18-2006, 02:37 PM

So is that a flat TV monitor on that? Looks nice.

Also, what is that BZ credit system thing? Is it part of Supernova or did the arcade place add it on?

nforcer06164 · 02-18-2006, 02:40 PM

It's on all the machines. You have an employee put money on the key that you saw in the last pic, and stick it into the device you saw in the pic before it. It's installed on every last machine where coins would normally go.

PS - Pleading guilty to Bar Rape accusation out of left field. =)

Lastly, to keep on topic. Fascination is difficult. Very, very difficult in a technical sense. It doesn't drain you like the other MAXes tend to. It makes you think above all else.

It goes 400 bpm, and it's definately possible to move your feet that fast even if you play middle of the panels. (like me)

Anyway I like the song line up, I also like the fact that they added the note mod to it, they let u pick solo before but never note so thats pretty cool.

1 thing I dont like is the fact that it only counts jumps as 1 to your combo.

Not saying this affects me or anyone as a player but IMO jumps should always count as 2 because it does take twice as much energy to jump than to single step, so it should deserve some sort of reward.

Anyway it looks really cool. The songs the machine too and everything so I can't wait to see it in the arcades.

**Spazzbite** · 02-18-2006, 03:22 PM

Don't really dig the fact that it went back to 5th mix scoring, because I don't appreciate getting an SDG and a boo, thus getting only an A.

The rest I definitely dig, and I'm excited to see that the official DoLL video was added in. Makes me very anxious to play Supernova

Novacaine · 02-18-2006, 04:24 PM

wow I never knew that, though ive never played 5th mix since u just explained it sounds like DDR Extreme for PS2 which is definately a minus, anyway like i said the things I do like are the new mod and the songs.

Except that people who suck at hard songs on ITG make up about 99% of the market for dancing games.

On the other hand, you can get more greats than perfects and still end up with a AA. I agree, though. The system is pretty flawed, and there was really no reason for it to change. Does anyone know if this is still a pending idea?

**zajac** · 02-18-2006, 06:09 PM

Looks awesome!

Can't wait 'til Idaho gets one... Yes... I do mean IDAHO... I remember how cool it was when Boise finally got an Extreme... How long will it be before it gets Supernova? Idaho doesn't even have ITG1 or 2 yet

All well... Something to extremely look foward to!

djsterf · 02-18-2006, 06:50 PM

Note: This is not exactly 5th mix scoring. It's much closer to a DP% rating.

Also, who in Winnipeg hasn't AAAed Legend of Max? E'ERYONE HAS. DUH. lol[/sarcasm]

FMAXX's scroll speed is up to 600 bpm on Extra Stage since x1.5 is forced. I was surprised how manageable those parts were at the arcade since my adrenaline was running. However, it's almost useless trying to get OMES because of all the noncombos the "new" pads throw out.

But nice pictures. Pretty much same in my opinion -- fun, but needs much work.

I will see if I can get enough ahead in my work again this week to get out to BZN.

verra · 02-18-2006, 07:29 PM

Looks awsome. Hope us in NJ will get it soon. Well knowing 8 On The Break we will, they had the ITG2 beta first ya know. Still, I dislike the fact that all the Dancemania is from 2003-2004... "TOXIC", "A LOVE LIKE THIS", all from EX, quite old. But overall it's very cool
