"Give me a steady beat." |
Quote: 8ftmetalhead
I find it irritating that I've lost all motivation to play rhythm games.
I either have to sweat it out and get frustrated at my homepad, get frustrated at my soft pads, get frustrated at paying $2 for supernova 2 which has iffy pads and is in a sweltering arcade year round, or pay 7 dollars to bus in and out of town to pay $2 for a game of itg or ddr x3.
I mean hell, we've now got 2 ddr x3 cabinets in the city, both in awesome condition but can I be fucked playing them?
NOPE. too expensive.
Also the community's irritating at times. And I'm irritating. And the arcades are irritating. Everything's irritating. GAH.

You don't have to stop completely, just take a break from it all and see how you feel in a few weeks/months.

This is a great thread.
Anyway, a few from me (sadly without pictures):
I have this weird thing where there are some songs that I should be able to FPC, but by some act of divine intervention one something of the sort, I just can't get them. Two in particular at the moment are Paranoia and My Only Shining Star.
I've gotten 1 great on each at least 5 times each, and on Paranoia, I've had my shoe come undone and get caught in the pad to end one would-be perfect combo, I've gotten the dreaded great on the last note, and I've had the pads temporarily be unable to accept input. Fabulous.
My Only Shining Star's even better, because the machine I was trying to FPC it on doesn't like jacks, so there's about a 50/50 chance I'll just get a pad miss in the beginning and have it end without me even doing anything wrong. I've had the pleasure of having some father and his child scream like they were in some sort of Rambo movie or something playing the light gun game next to me, ruining that run. I've even had the intense joy of stepping on a child that decided to walk on the pad from behind. With that run ruined, I turned to apologize to the parent, who wasn't even there.
And on the matter of rampant children, I've even had a set of parents pull a different parent's child off the pads during another game because the parents were just too enthralled with their Skee-ball game to care where there child was going.
Moral of the story: Watch your kids, please.

No, THIS is the moral of the story: Leashes on the children. Fences around the pads. I'm getting sick and tired of getting yelled for something that is clearly the children's fault & not mine. It doesn't matter to me that they're just kids.

"Ka-n-ko-re" |
In jubeat, got an S on coming true 'ADV' but trying it again later gives me like a B mainly because of all of the misses on those double squares. THOSE DOUBLE SQUARES!
In pop'n, I could pass NORMAL charts at around 20-24, but not HYPER charts of the same level. Like I could pass votum stellarum and Jack on NORMAL but can't even pass Love is Orange and Mahou no Tobira HYPER.
And In DDR, I could finally get decent full combo AA instead of having to see myself getting a full combo AND rating of A in DDR EXTREME. Whereas in SN2, I can't even get a decent A or AA on any 8-9 song. This is all based on my local experience.

You know what pisses me the fuck off??? These arcades that buy DDR/Pump/ITG and then just totally neglects them. What was the point of buying them in the first place if you're never going to upgrade them or anything. Trying to talk to these stupid managers and tech people just makes me feel stupid for talking to them.
PEOPLE DO SOME FUCKING RESEARCH BEFORE YOUR COMPANY SPENDS THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS ON ARCADE GAMES.

Happens every once in a while in a jubeat:
- no yellow no yellow no yellow **blue on last note**
Also, when you see people taking seemingly less effort to get to the same level as you do.

"Blessings of the Northern Sea" |
My buddy Eric bought Technika Tune for the Vita, and I manage to borrow it for when I have my breaks at work, so i've got my own little bit of venting to do. Getting on one of those long strings of hitting all the notes on any of the Technika Tune charts, and then out of the blue your finger slips up and you forget to hold one of the notes and break your streak, or even just missing a really simple note in the middle of a great run. It's not the worst thing in the world but dammit it's so frustrating when you try to get a max combo and you slip up JUST ONCE and ruin it. Love the game, but sometimes I just have the worst luck and screw up on really simple sections, and it just drives me up the wall. I guess it isnt really venting, but more like extreme frustration, cause this shit happens A LOT, even on the easier charts, but I notice it happening more often when I go for a max combo then if I just play normally. I'm guessing it's the forced pressure.

Not even upgrading, it gets better when they neglect the machine's condition altogether. A nearby bowling alley bought X shortly after it came out, and within maybe a month or two, it was unusable.
Also, I hate how I can't play any of my Idolmaster games, despite having six of them. However, that's less about the games themselves and more about how I know exactly how to remedy the problems preventing me from playing them yet have taken zero steps in actually doing so.

"jellybeans on acid" |
can I just complain about how there's not a single rhythm game within reasonable driving distance of my city.
I miss ITG so much but I'd even settle for a half-working Extreme like we used to have in the movie theatres.

The best ones are when you scoff at a miss on the first note and then resume to getting a pfc afterwards (which wouldn't be a pfc because you screwed up the first not).
*sigh*

Supreme bump, but I just need to let this out.
There is a good amount of songs in rhythm games that contain rhythms and patterns that are so complex, you get thrown off and want to bash your head against the wall.
With that being said, what the hell is up with GLITTER in REFLEC BEAT?

I would like to complain about how much I hate Supernova 1. I constantly feel as though I'm being prevented from advancing any farther in skill because of the awful sync on a good chunk of the tunes.
I only have access to Supernova and Extreme within a short drive I can make on my free days, and most of the Extremes aren't as good as they could be. :/
Can't give up. I need to practice for DDR Storm, assuming I can attend.
