DanceDanceRevolution A (AC)

Yeah, DDR A has been one of the lightest mixes, as far as unfair speed gimmicks go.

(No I'm not mad at SN/SN2 I don't know what you're talking about that never happened)

Finally got to play Cosy and I really like it. I feel like it plays like a harder version of Unbelievable with the fast triplet crossovers (even though they're slower than Unbelievable).

No, the crossovers are indeed faster on Cosy Catastrophe​ (180 vs 175). And yeah, I for one, didn't think the chart was all that bad either. Just a bit of getting used to, is all.

Oh whoops, I could have sworn Unbelieveable ran at around 190

This is off-topic, but does anyone have a link to the google sheet that broke down the difficulties for the 14-19 range songs?

There may be a newer one, but this is the last version of it I saw. I've kept my own updated version of it, but I shifted a bunch of things around just for my own reference

Try this: http://ddrcommunity.com/ddr-difficulty-tier-list

It doesn't have 14's laid out, but it focuses on timing difficulty and is consistently updated. (Doesn't have Cosy Catastrophe as of this post, though.)

---

This is pretty helpful, thanks. Do you know if there's an updated one based on difficulty rather than timing?

---

I'm not sure anyone every got around to updating one based on passing difficulty. I remember when the one Wari linked was being discussed here and we had some issues with the tiering for the harder difficulties since by that level each person has various techniques that they find easier or harder. An example would be FELM. On that list it is rated as an easier 18, but if you struggle with jumpstream it is a hard 18. This is why we started trying to list categories for each chart to give people an idea of which ones might be more appropriate to try next. That said I still think some charts are very far off (I think it's a toss up between Valkyrie Dimension and Over the Period for hardest 19 to pass while Egoism is way easier.)

Valkyrie Dimension's arguably an easy pass though (relatively speaking), just bracket mash the 480 section, that's literally half of the chart's difficulty right there, if you can get that you can probably get the rest of the chart.

The crossover section at the end sucks too, but really at that point it's not honestly much worse than the other four 19's; plus it's the only one of the four 19's where endurance really isn't a problem at all (even PARANOiA Revolution's draining as all hell).

I'm pretty sure it's impossible to combo that crap though, so :V

OT'P' is arguably far worse if you're just going for a pass simply because there's no one reason OT'P' is hard; it's hard for every single reason: Fast speed (though not the fastest), utterly foot-twisting patterns (though not the worst), having the worst speed-range in the entire game (23-840), and being incredibly stamina draining, giving you very little chance to recover, especially when you hit the 210 BPM section (to say nothing of the 420).

This is a question you should ask FEFEMZ. He has at least blue comboed the chart.

I also happen to believe this is song has the most difficult on Single, although on Double, EGOISM 440 seems even harder.

---

I believe in this too. The only reason I pass this chart is by speeding up the song to around 3x speed, mash through the 480 part and the rest of the song (except for the 380 section) is spaced out enough to pass the song.

I'm not sure if this is me, but I haven't found someone who finds Anti-matter really hard. As much as I try, I've only passed the 800,000 point marker 3 times for the chart. I don't know why it's tough for me...

Get Ready For The Next Battle

---

I hope It's true.

---

The QR code just sends you to the DDR A page with no new information, but I'm ready to unlock the next batch of EE songs.

---

It came sooner than expected, probably they announce something in the page for tomorrow.

The next ones are Come to Life, Emera and Start a New Day, right? So place your bets for the charts:

- Come to Life will be a 18
- Emera will be a 17
- Start a New Day will have shock arrows and will be a 16 (plsno)

Come To Life and Emera are going to be 18s, Start A New Day is gonna be 16
Come To Life will probably have shock arrows if Start A New Day doesn't
also when are we getting a route 80s revival godfuckingdamnit

also there's a new update
dance level is shown during gameplay

---

you'd have thought the "level" bit would be larger vertically to match the number. What a weird text display.

---

hmm that's a weird thing to put there most players would know which songs are what levels already,if not then it's right on the song select.

According to the translations, eAmusement services are going to end on June 30 for DDR 2013 and DDR 2014.
