I play O2jam, LR2 and Mania, so I don't think I have to worry about that. I am wondering if there are any unranked 7k gems (Map packs etc) that I can look out for.Ovnize wrote:
just play the game and don't stick with the same maps
If I stopped playing 4k for a while and played LR2, would I be able to fix this? I want to be as good as 7k/8k as I am 4k.-Kamikaze- wrote:
Rooting on 4K is a common mistake players make, because it will be much harder for you to adjust to more keys now.
Would you say you prefer 7k, or would you say you like it as much as 4k? And do you actually feel more comfortable playing 7k?Bobbias wrote:
It takes everyone different amounts of time. When I switched from stepmania to o2jam (4k to 7k) it took me about 3 months to feel comfortable playing 7k. Keep in mind that I am a slow learner, and most people will improve faster than this though.
I know that playing LR2 with my left pinky feels like shit, and scratch note being on the right is only cancer.Zenx wrote:
personally not sure about playing 3 games all at the same time, i find adjusting to different games hard, so playing 3 games at once (might ?) be contributing to the fact that you are not adjusting to 7/8k faster, it probably depends on the mechanics/noteskin/other factors that separate these games from each other, just putting this out here
True, but from another person with a similar experience's perspective, (Bobbias for example) I would like to know their experiences with "switching" keymode. I would assume downgrading to 4k would feel just about the same if not better to Jhlee. This isn't factoring difficulty, which would put a player like Staiain and him in two complete different categories of "comfort" if playing retarded files.Aqo wrote:
you're thinking of comfortable as a relative term so the answer is never. doh
is this chair comfortable? well, compared to standing up, it is, but compared to this couch, it isn't.
if you're better at one key mode than another than the one you're worse at is going to be uncomfortable forever
To become 7k ET, you must embrace the painTransformau5 wrote:

I prefer 7k. I feel that the larger number of patterns in 7k gives mappers more options. I'm completely comfortable with both 7k and 4k. Right now I'm actually playing stepmania and focusing on improving my 4k, but that's because I've gotten bored with how few fun 7k charts are coming out here right now.Hinpoppo wrote:

That answer's my questions. I would ask about the difficulty between a 4k and 7k 3 star song and how comfortable you would feel with 4k playing an easy song, but I suppose that's highly relative. Hopefully in the next month of no-lifing 7k I can get good enough to feel like it's natural :^]Bobbias wrote:

You're forgetting that 4k requires much more speed in the fingers you use for it than 7k does generally. Just because there are fewer columns doesn't mean 4k is going to automatically be more comfortable for someone. Currently I'd say my 4k is noticeably weaker than my 7k on hard stuff.
