So I passed a level 7 am I pro yet?

I'm afraid to actually play SPADA at the arcade because I'm pretty sure I'd just look like an idiot and fail a level 3 or something.
I mean it doesn't hurt to play at the arcade. You may have to re-adjust to the cabinet, but you'll improve since you can play on an actual cabinet oppose to your home setup. People usually say after they play at the arcade, they start to clear charts that they've never cleared before at home.

Hehe, I'm trying out IIDX 10th Style and its infamously tight timing windows... but I'm getting Bs on charts that I've gotten AA on in Tricoro, and I can't even pass many of the charts that I thought I could do. Do you think it's worth it to continue to practice with 10th Style, or should I just stick to Tricoro?

ok ive been playing a lot of lr2 recently, it seems to have replaced osu as my most played game.
i have enough money to get a dao fp7 (wtf shipping price), but is it good in the long run?
also, can anyone give me a comparison between the honeywell and omron microswitches? i'm only asking because honeywell does seem cheaper, but i dont want an extremely light switch

I would say purchasing an FP7 or FPS will be well worth it in the end. The controller will last you a very long time, even if you play here and there; eventually you may find yourself playing for long periods of time.

In regards to Honeywells and Omrons... Omrons tend to come in a variety of weight and they have a longer life span. On the other hand, Honeywells tend to feel way too light and they're prone to breaking after a long period of time, oppose Omrons which has a longer life span. The preferred combination for players in Japan is 50g Omrons along with 100g springs because it's a perfect balance; not too heavy, not too light, it feels just right especially if you're working on stamina and timing.

I recently purchased a set of seven 50g Omron switches and 100g springs directly from Sanwa Denshi and once I installed everything I started to see a jump in my scores: -5 AA on AA [A], AAAing 7s and 8s without much of an issue, most of my 11s were increasing by like 60~100; my average ranking on most songs varies between 60~30/200~300. My issue was that my springs were too light and my switches were way too heavy so my keys felt way too spongy making it very difficult for me to time accordingly, yet I was able to mash through without an issue... At my level of play I needed something to balance it out and that's probably the best combination.

It's not worth it. Just stick to Tricoro since the timing, settings and other shit is different on 10th Style. You'll have a difficult time making the transition back to Tricoro if you just keep playing 10th Style. If you want to get better at timing, just keep playing various songs on Random and practice low density songs to improve.

I also wanted to mention IIDX is a retarded game, and it demands a lot of time if you want to improve. The best advice that I can offer is play on Random. The moment you get a controller or whatever, strictly play on Random. The reason is because you'll get an exposure to various patterns and shapes that can be applied towards difficult charts. If you play just Non-Ran or Mirror and replay the same chart, congrats, you're only learning how to play that one specific chart; however if you turn on that modification, you'll get a handful of patterns under your belt.

For reference, when my friend started, he played with Random only and became a 9th Dan in just four~five months of play.

Edit: In regards to Pendual that was released a few days ago, the theme looks great, and the default set list is solid.

Since now I can't figure out the patterns when using RD/SR. Which one is better actually?

You use Random for normal play (1-12), and S-Random if you're trying to practice jacks/chord jacks on low level charts (7~8).

Woah the performance jump between playing LR2 on Windows and Linux....
It's like.... Flawless...

So I was at the break the other day and met a lot of players and got to play pendual.

There's TONNES of easy 11s in pendual, and 10s are harder that normal. Suddenly the bridge between 10 and 11 is small.

Pendual 7 dan is also piss easy. I can reliably enter the safari with 100%.

8 dan... has miracle sympho... automatic sad face.

Damn, I wish I had an arcade with IIDX anywhere near me
At least BMS has LN scale which is brilliant, got ◆4 dan recently

osu!mania needs more lr2
Ryu Sei
Well the different keybinding drastically drops my level (and skill)... when I'm using O2 keybind I could pass Lv.10 below charts and when using the DX/BMS keybind only Lv.5 below 'w'
Nyquill
its two entirely different games

Using diffrent setup is good to get rid of muscle memory. Also I gotta try DX keybind, because that's the only way i can possibly learn double scratch
