Aw, poor you. I know you have the rhythm and probably the sight-reading, so all you really need to do is learn the crossovers and the fact you need to move the body quicker.Loginer wrote:
I can't clear anything higher than a 7-footer. <_< ;_; >.> :'<
With a mat, that is. I hate using the keyboard. :3
Lol, likewise here, except I'm the one that's spazzing on the pad. :Oawp wrote:
My brother is excellent at DDR. I've seen him clear 9 and 10 step songs on the mat, and it's not a pretty sight. You need to move your feet so fast you don't have any time but to look like a spaz with constipation.
It's easy to read the ten footers even on x1, so if it looks like a mess than oh well. I wonder why people are in awe about these performanc--oh wait, yeah now I know. Not trying to say you're bad at DDR, but it's always funny to hear how people see people who can do the hardest songs, doing the Maxes feels natural to me, but to someone like you, it looks like a spaz-attack.awp wrote:

I thought that was what DDR was all about :Sawp wrote:

4.0 is such a frail version, but I highly dislike the latest build by the StepMania group. I use the one that Dog_E suggested (Which Dog_E is some moderator I believe over at the SMOnline community). That one is more efficient, like they didn't remove the animated banners and online works A-OK.Mogsworth wrote:

Anyone play online here, like 4.0?
As for DDR/ITG/PiU skills...nonexistent. I barely do the medium difficulties on pad.
StepMania...keyboard only, 10-12 footer keyboard files, J5.
And I've only been playing SM for about three years, if you count the time I gave up all DDR-related rhythm games for Pop'n.
It's very nice.Anyone play online here, like 4.0?No, haven't tried it... yet.
It's great, though I am not forcing you to go play on it, it's a nice thing. Though lots of people on there are either keyboard players or people who love to play...*grunts*Otaku's Dream. >_>buraimaster1234 wrote:

I like playing Stepmania a whole lot more. I've been playing it for like 3-4 months now, so I'm alright at it I suppose.Anyone play online here, like 4.0?No, haven't tried it... yet.
Here's a bunch of keyboard packs, and some pad packs. Tell me if any of the links don't work, alright? Since I know PPP doesn't work.Cecilthemos wrote:
I use Stepmania mostly to practice reading so I can do DDR, but I should try downloading some packs, any recommendations?
My arms tend to give up on me whenever I play StepMania for some reason. All of those terrible combo breakers were really from one section of the song. Exhaustion + hold + jumptrill = evil. Although, what 13-footer isn't evil?Starrodkirby86 wrote:
Yeah, I didn't think you played that well on Death Moon, I can get an A on a less C. Other than that, it's still a good job nonetheless, especially since you were sucking.

It is a not bad game
Usually, popular arcades or areas that are vastly populated...when they have a DDR machine, it gets tarnished and ruined so badly you cannot even pass a ten footer on that (That is, if you can on other machinesCecilthemos wrote:

There are a lot of cool games, but you can't hear anything.
). Nevertheless, sometimes the condition of the machine get really bad from people stomping, frustrated, acting crazy, dropping their foods or drinks on the machine (Spilling, though people aren't that clumsy) and whatnot...
Oh at Fresno some of the areas definitely terrible machines. There is an ITG2 Machine that accepts the USB, therefore you can get your steps on the machine, but the pads are so broken there's no point in playing. And somewhere at Las Vegas has an ITG2 machine where even stomping won't attract much attention. You'll instantly fail any song...well, nearly.Cecilthemos wrote:
The machine at Golf 'n Stuff was turned up and it's in pretty good condition, I've never seen one that's in unplayable condition though.
