Annoying backgrounds

The Bain · 05-26-2008, 08:34 PM

I am so sick of songs like domani, caprice, stay with me, ect. that have these bright-ass backgrounds. Or what about songs like legend of zelda, too tight or skellybones with moving backgrounds that distract one's attention when trying to AAA. I know people understand what I'm talking about. What methods do you guys use in these situations?

thats what makes it hard ;D

Please don't pointlessly complain about the backgrounds.

1. It has been done many times before.
2. The admins have no intentions on changing the backgrounds because it adds an historical aspect to FFR.

They are very annoying, but you have to just deal with it. There is no special method to play them better.

Try lowering the brightness of your screen.

You eventually learn to block them out...for me the problem isn't that there's a background, it's that for these songs the arrows are all blue. As if it isn't hard enough already trying to distinguish them.

... Wait til you get party 4 u... Just wait. Then you can complain

l u l l a b y · 05-26-2008, 08:37 PM

I make my eyebrows go like this > and i mumble under my breath until the song is done n_n That's pretty much the only method. Sorry.

CBR: Haha, I love that song. The background is so crazy it's awesome.

Meh, It's worth a try.

I'm surprised you didn't talk about Delerium or Pondering Stuff, or Party 4 u.

Those ones are the worst in my opinion.

Backgrounds are basically one with the song. Without the background, the song's not the same.

I apologize, my intention is not to complain. I merely wanted to discuss techniques people used on songs with obscure backgrounds

**Tasselfoot** · 05-26-2008, 08:56 PM

you get used to them. they're nostalgic and historic. just be glad i'm not of the mentality that we need more backgrounds in FFR. there was a time when we were moving towards adding backgrounds to EVERY song (before i was in charge, of course).

Pondering Stuff has the note skin, so it's not that bad.

I personally have no trouble with Delirium. P4U is my worst song, I will completely miss arrows without even knowing it. O_O

The only problem I have with P4U is that really fast mess of arrows in the middle (around 300 combo). I can never seem to combo the whole thing.

chidori! · 05-26-2008, 09:33 PM

i actually want bg's for all the songs. it makes them look better.

**ninjaKIWI** · 05-26-2008, 09:36 PM

If they had the noteskin it'd be fine.
