2 In A Row! New Subbie Feature: Added Speedmods!
Hopefully this does show all of you that we DO listen to suggestions, even if it takes us some time until we can implement them. We had to remove 3.0x mod on the Beta, because the bar is now full. We figured you guys would rather have 2 new usable mods instead of 3.0x which is rarely used outside of as a joke.
2.25x and 2.5x are now usable! Yay! I know a lot of people were looking for a 1.875x mod as well, but there just isn’t room without completely re-doing that area of the settings menu.
I expect to see a metric butt-ton of new insane scores now… no excuses. Between masking and more mods, you guys are out of reasons to suck. And I say that with all the love in the world. <3.
-Tass, Synth, and the Green Lantern!
update: Another small feature… we added a song timer bar between the game interface and the MP interface. It appears as a black bar that gets blue as the song progresses. It’s not in the most amazing location… but it’s merely there to get the functionality in place and to beta test.

Ah man. This is useless to me without 1.875x. Oh well, good job anyways.
Posted at 2:19pm on September 5th, 2008
And I told you 1.875 was practical.
Posted at 2:20pm on September 5th, 2008
Fuck yeah green lantern!
Posted at 2:22pm on September 5th, 2008
I didn’t say 1.875 was impractical, you just said that was more practical than 1.8 >_>

Quoted Sprtizer “Ah man. This is useless to me without 1.875x. Oh well, good job anyways.”
Correct
Posted at 2:25pm on September 5th, 2008
Sweet!
Posted at 2:27pm on September 5th, 2008
I would rather have had 1.875 than 2.25 and 2.5. 2.0 is too fast for me as it is >_>
Oh well, I’m not a subscriber anyway.

I’m in love with FFR now. This was implemented not a moment too soon, since 2x was getting wayy too slow for me. This was the incentive I needed to play FFR again. Hopefully I can get new, awesome scores.
Posted at 2:32pm on September 5th, 2008
1.875 pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
-.-
Posted at 2:36pm on September 5th, 2008

Posted at 2:55pm on September 5th, 2008
Posted at 2:58pm on September 5th, 2008
GAY… First feature FFR has ever made that I have disliked and totally proved useless to me. I was dreaming for 1.875x. Screw 2.5. Lame…..
Posted at 2:59pm on September 5th, 2008
Good job coping what I said by using almost all the same words Phynx -_- Oh Well Thank god some people agree with me
Posted at 3:04pm on September 5th, 2008

Posted at 3:18pm on September 5th, 2008
Amaaaazing! Again, I can hardly wait for this to go public!<3333333333
Posted at 3:23pm on September 5th, 2008
i was hoping for a slider speed mod bar, but this is almost as good. At least we know you are listening to us.
Posted at 3:35pm on September 5th, 2008
Quoting Oni-Paranoia quoting Sprtizer: “Ah man. This is useless to me without 1.875x. Oh well, good job anyways.â€
Posted at 3:42pm on September 5th, 2008

**** YEAH. **** YEAH!
Posted at 4:07pm on September 5th, 2008
Ah man. This is useless to me without 1.875x. Oh well, good job anyways.
Posted at 4:11pm on September 5th, 2008
1.875x would most likely get more use than 2.5x. (It would at least run smoother.) Either way, thanks for the additional features. Keep up the great work.
Posted at 4:14pm on September 5th, 2008
I wouldn’t expect to see many more metric butt tons of scores until 1.875x is added.
Posted at 4:21pm on September 5th, 2008
Lol…

D:
Ohh my
-goes to try em out-
yayyy
Posted at 4:31pm on September 5th, 2008
I wish 3.0 was still there though. Maybe a second line…? Then it wouldn’t be a problem for 1.875 and whatever else.
Posted at 4:31pm on September 5th, 2008
I need the 1.87!
argh.
Posted at 4:32pm on September 5th, 2008
Probably about half and half want 1.875x as to who like the added feature.
Posted at 4:32pm on September 5th, 2008
another small feature was just added. see the update in the news post.
Posted at 4:32pm on September 5th, 2008
Oh and HighAndr0id has a better idea than mine.
Posted at 4:33pm on September 5th, 2008

=D
Posted at 5:33pm on September 5th, 2008
wow gay 1.875 was GUNNA BE (so we all thought…) the shit
Posted at 5:41pm on September 5th, 2008
Will there be an option to turn off the time bar? I’d get a little obsessed with it and stop watching the arrows.
Posted at 5:42pm on September 5th, 2008
set up like a plastic mode on FFR. That would be INCREDIBLE.
Posted at 5:48pm on September 5th, 2008
FINALLY! I love you
Posted at 5:49pm on September 5th, 2008
cool stuff
Posted at 5:52pm on September 5th, 2008
Nobody here so far said that they liked 2.5x
Replace it with 1.875x already.
Posted at 6:05pm on September 5th, 2008
2.25x is nice but 2.5x is just too fast.
But good idea on removing 3.0x. Keep it removed, nobody ever uses it anyway.

yeah it sucks
Posted at 7:18pm on September 5th, 2008
1.875x, now =/
Posted at 8:17pm on September 5th, 2008
oh yeah I agree 1.875x is what I need too
Posted at 8:38pm on September 5th, 2008
i don’t see the timer bar……
Posted at 8:50pm on September 5th, 2008
im a beast i thought of the timer bar
Posted at 9:51pm on September 5th, 2008
You guys should make the FFR window really tall, it’d actually make it easier to read than SM, plus the highest speed mods would be useful. And if people didn’t like it, they could screenshrink.
Posted at 10:16pm on September 5th, 2008
but syyyynth
im still gonna sux @ teh ffrs unless u make feeture that makes game hit da arrows 4 me
Posted at 10:44pm on September 5th, 2008
INCREASED WINDOW HEIGHT YES. 2.25x really enticing hmm I might buy a sub…
Posted at 11:04pm on September 5th, 2008
Crap, I think that I am needing to buy a sub for that progress bar…. Maybe tomorrow….
Posted at 11:14pm on September 5th, 2008
Useless to me as well. 2.0 is too laggy and somewhat too fast. Was really hoping for 1.875.
Posted at 1:58am on September 6th, 2008
The timer bar is based on the number of arrows, and not the actual length of the song. Am I correct?
Posted at 2:04am on September 6th, 2008
Yeah!!!
i have just subscribed XD
Posted at 3:53am on September 6th, 2008
Yay! I know a lot of people were looking for a 1.875x mod as well, but there just isn’t room without completely re-doing that area of the settings menu.
Posted at 9:49am on September 6th, 2008
@74, Yeah I think so too.
Posted at 10:44am on September 6th, 2008
The timer bar thing is really distracting.
Posted at 11:44am on September 6th, 2008
It is kinda distracting, but you can hardly see it! I think it’s ok.
Posted at 12:24pm on September 6th, 2008
LOL @ downvoters.
Posted at 12:24pm on September 6th, 2008
1.625x? Pl0x? Love you.
Posted at 1:19pm on September 6th, 2008
^ Agree. lol
Posted at 7:38pm on September 6th, 2008
Seriously nuclearsamurai LOL @ Downvoters XDDDDD
Posted at 9:16pm on September 6th, 2008
Time bar has no effect on me since I use screencut >.>
Which I’m only able to do with masking, and I pretty much love that ^.^
Posted at 11:28pm on September 6th, 2008
Wish I had money to be a subbie… Then I could get a timer bar too….
Posted at 5:16pm on September 7th, 2008
I’d suggest placing the timer bar on the right of the screen, top to bottom. Or put it above everything, it wouldn’t matter, putting it between the up and down arrow would be better than where it is now, I can’t see it at all without losing my combo. BETA team go!
Posted at 5:37pm on September 7th, 2008
And make the bar bright green or red, the blue blends in too well with everything else.
Posted at 7:07pm on September 7th, 2008
uh 1.349090548905235239803509253980869489068
plz
Posted at 10:17pm on September 7th, 2008
Yawn, useful and exciting features pl0x.
Posted at 3:26pm on September 8th, 2008
Can anyone post a screenshot of the timer bar, or is that against the rules?
Posted at 4:16pm on September 8th, 2008
Do what EW suggested, make the window twice as long pleeeeeeeease.
Posted at 11:31pm on September 8th, 2008
so I’m unable to get on due to weird browser issues (it took me like 3 min to type this because the text box wouldn’t register my typing) and I some how get back and there are new speed mods, My love for FFR is almost as strong as my hatred for my box
Posted at 12:06pm on September 9th, 2008
HOLY SHIT, i think i can AAA more master songs and finally FC Death Piano with a 2.5x, THANK YOU TASS!
Posted at 9:03pm on September 9th, 2008
yo green lantern is black
Posted at 6:54pm on September 11th, 2008
there will be an option to turn the timer bar off, right?
Posted at 2:31am on September 12th, 2008
hmm
Posted at 12:24pm on September 12th, 2008
My problem with EW’s game screen lengthening idea is screen area. In multiplayer, full screening the browzer allows both the FFR and MP interfaces to fit perfectly on screen at once.
Making the FFR interface taller would make it impossible to have conversations while playing unless you scroll up and down, which would get extremely annoying very quickly. :/
The current setup works just fine and is most efficient in MP for talking/playing.
Posted at 2:50pm on September 13th, 2008
Instead of adding/subtracting more mods is there a way you can make it to where we can type in our own mod?
If it can be done with keymapping im sure this wont be too hard.
Posted at 3:39pm on September 13th, 2008
u should make it easier for us ppl who cant subscribe able to subscribe like one suggestion would be make a news post called If This News Post Reaches Over 9000 Posts Then Everyone Who Posted Here Gets A Free Subbie something like that
Posted at 8:56pm on September 13th, 2008
hmm I think we would all be more impressed if we could use a slider or a text box to enter the speed we want, instead of worrying about what to fit in a line. Or better yet something that runs at a specific bpm measurement, this way one wouldn’t have to keep going back into the menus to change speed.
Posted at 3:28pm on September 14th, 2008
I thought the green lantern was black
O.O
Posted at 4:10pm on September 14th, 2008
Stealthc they said they wont do a slider.
I agree with MIHC though, a text box would be perfect.
Posted at 8:12pm on September 22nd, 2008
Your all downbombed.
Posted at 6:37pm on September 25th, 2008

Posted at 1:43am on October 28th, 2008
hopefully they won’t get rid of 3x permanently. also, is there still any hope of getting a 1.875x mod?
