DDR X2 (AC) (International)

I'm back and I want a quick answer...

Should I split the songs for two uploads or leave them together. Answer quick I'm editing now and about to upload.

^ 500th post.

I say split 'em, easier to download on slow connections.

I'm also one of them people who just came back from the location test and have to say what a disappointment (again). The pads are NOT good, and although it is better than the X ones, we WANT a pad at least on par with an Extreme pad and IMO we didn't get it. Pads and timing is really all that matters and it kinda failed. It looks good and I thought the licenses are good.

Few things to note. "Yellow" candy is under the F folder when sorted alphabetically (lol). And it seems you can put your name in when you get high scores but only on Beginner. This occured twice, one time the player played Trust , I forgot and PARONiA Survivor . Pyhen played a beginner too and was able to input his name. Another player PFC Kiss Kiss Kiss on and didn't get crap.

it wouldnt be the first time this has happened. sobakasu freckles sorts to F.

May I ask one thing? I've been told that Fire Fire is only avalaible on Tuesday. Is it true? Thank you for answering

Yessir.

I apologize in advance for those who wanted separate uploads. I decided to combine them cause it saves time uploading and its easier to edit. I'm sure in the future when they are unlocked I'll upload them separately.

Video is still processing. Quality will improve.


VANESSA has some really tricky cross-overs near the end.

---

I like the new charts but i find them too repetitive.

---

A bit repetitive, but VANESSA's chart is quite good actually. I was thinking KONAMI will blast this chart with ton of 12ths, and AFRONOVA walk work well here. Sure VANESSA as a challenge chart.

ZETA isn't bad at all, but irregular on the difficulty.

Thank for the complete videos =)

Oh, my....

Another song by DM Ashura.

I'm sure this X2 ARC fullfilled with more Universe 3 songs.

Hopefully Concertino In Blue for next Dance Drill course.

Yes there is:

Congratulations on earning yourself a Silver Crown!

And by the way, you also got a Bronze Crown for the rank you got on Revival course.

The end of VANESSA is a bit mental. So much for my first 16 FC.

---

ZETA looks great for a 15. The end's kind of dumbed down given what's in pop'n music, but that's about the best they could do with the steps without going into stupid territory like Oni said. The rest of the song looks fun and also reasonably difficult.

Vanessa looks pretty fun up until the end. I understand stepping up the difficulty for the 2nd half of the song, but those end crossovers are a bit silly. I think the song could pass for a high 15 also, since while the crossovers at that speed are rough (faster than P.Survivor, slower than PSM), there's also that breather middle section and the song doesn't push 16-like difficulty until the last crossover runs.

Rabby250:
Thanks a lot for the info. I really wish I didn't forget the ending date of the IR cause I wanted to play Joyful workout and Power push again cause I thought I could have gotten ranked one... btw, is it the same as X1? 1st=gold 2nd-10th=silver 11th-30th=Bronze?

Here are 2 other videos I took today.




I am currently uploading a video for Leaving... Expert. Should be finished soon.

---

Right now, the 200,000 people who made stepcharts for VANESSA are going, "lol i made a better chart than that konami sux," yet I like the crossovers and nova-walks more than the spamming of 12th runs of death other people were doing.

ZETA looks like something I could do... if I had access to a X2 machine. >.>

---

Yep, the rank requirements are the same.
The crowns should be unlocked by now (as mentioned in the staff's blog),
so you can check it out on the accessory selection screen during your next credit.
(I don't know if they have any marks on the courses you earn those crowns with though.)

As for the Gold Crown, maybe you can try to earn one in IR2. Good luck!

---

Thanks for the vids, Dr. D. Definitely appreciate them.

Were you able to get through the Boss Rush and make it to Roppongi Evolved ver D? I'm really hoping that someone will upload a better quality video (i.e. better sound) than the one that's on YouTube right now and you seem to have the best quality vids out.

Well if it's quality in sound your looking for it shouldn't be hard considering you can play the course on Normal and it makes it easier to pass final stage. I wouldn't be surprised if there's a line out shortly. (btw I only got to Delta max and failed, I usually average 1-5 misses on that song)

One more silly one from last week.

---

Confirmed. The rank requirements are the same.

Sorry, no gold for me. I'm not good enough to get a gold. The most i can get is a 3rd...
