Omfg, I just got through playing DDR. o-o


LISU is regarded as the best IIDX player in the world, playing IIDX with one hand, using the other to scratch. He doesn't have a home BM game, so he normally goes to arcades to wow people with his 1337 sk33lz.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qw-rEP2fTFY <----- That's LISU.

Lisu style it is then. I'll go call my doctor to alert him of my upcoming carpal tunnel.

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO

LISU isn't the best... I'd say that would be CStarFlare.

And second, you can try rotating your hands to reach keys. (well, just your right, the left would be on the scratch and 1 or 2 key.)

Heres a key diagram.

_[2][4][6]
[1][3][5][7]

I have my right hand do keys 3-7, with thumb occasionally on 3. My left hand does 1-2, sometimes 3 on 1/32 runs.

 

[McFluffy]

well, for me i like using my right hand on 4567, with my fingers lined up, using the index on 4 and 5, with the middle on 6 and the ring on 7. my left hand handles like 1, ring, 2, middle, 3, index, and sometimes i use my left index for four aswell. when i start hitting the annoying multiple notes/scratches, i just find the best way for my right hand to cover the most of the keys, while my left only gets scratch and 1, and maybe 2. hope that helps somewhat.

EDIT XILL, you should order it, or just pick it up from an eb games, atleast. start with the US version, it has V on it, so you'll be happy, and it's easy for beginners. also, when you get it join VJA! we welcome new members XD. and the goodness about that is ARCHOWL IS GONE! HAPPY!

Just passed Zenius I Vanisher 7k on my SSRMAX! I GOT A B! (according to the ex score...)

 

[Cloud_Unchained]

Gosh, the Lisu style is growing on to me. I can almost get a full combo on V (beginner mode of course).

 

[Wallflower]

o_.

I'm trying to figure out what finger positioning is best for One More Lovely. Another. *-*

That stinks of... Well.... Murder.

 

[Cloud_Unchained]

Is it possible to unlock the Another difficulty in Beatmania US?

 

[RTP49]

Yeah... I think...

And meluns, you shouldn't be jumping to anothers just yet.

Light (DDR) -> Standard (DDR) -> Heavy/Oni (DDR) -> Beginner (IIDX) -> Light7/Normal (IIDX) -> 7key/Hyper (IIDX) -> Another7 (IIDX)

 

[Wallflower]

>.> This chart makes me angry.

Anyways, I can already do Normal IIDX. I should be able to do Anothers soon.

 

[McFluffy]

to CU, just play every song once, on any mode, no need to pass, including 5key and it should be done. my disc sucks, and freezes on some 5key songs, so i can never unlock anothers, unless i download some data from the internet.

Normal = Light7

Your skipping Hyper.

 

[Wallflower]

Not skipping hyper. I'm saying that I could probably master Hyper quickly, then move onto Anothers soon after.

Tsk, tsk.

 

[Cloud_Unchained]

The another difficulty is CRAZY.

>_<

I'm still having trouble with some beginner songs (V, Colors, Summer Vacation just to be specific.)

 

[RTP49]

Not skipping hyper. I'm saying that I could probably master Hyper quickly, then move onto Anothers soon after.

Tsk, tsk.

Nope.

If you did, you'd just be doing the 'easy' anothers, like Hitch Hiker or Dynamite Rave.

Besides, you don't learn stairways in Light7... Just multiple chords.

And for C_U, it took me at least 30 tries to pass Colors... It's pretty hard for me, even today. =D

On beginner difficulty?

o.o

 

[RTP49]

?

No... Light7... But still, you'll have the same problem when you get there, just keep practicing... And bring headphones...

I don't get it. What are the headphones for?

 

[Wallflower]

Nope.

That's the point. Crawl before Walk.


. . . Headphones?

 

[RTP49]

HEADPHONES

1. They look cool on you
2. They make you look leik one dem IIDX DJs
3. Your family won't be distracted by the pulsating trance music in your room
4. They help you hear keysounds you may have missed

 

[Cloud_Unchained]

Where can I plug in the headphones?
