Re: Disconnected hardcore

Re: Disconnected hardcore

Smart ass

Probably best to give it a break, or maybe try it on 1.1-1.2 rate for awhile and go back to normal and see if it's easier?

Re: Disconnected hardcore

oh, that's a decent idea actually. i'd done it the other way, playing 0.9x

[Tarrik]

Re: Disconnected hardcore

Slowing it down will help with recognizing the patterns, but speeding it up will bunch it together more - So if you were to then whore it on hard mode, going back to normal rate SHOULD almost be like playing on 0.9

I'd also recommend 1.1, not 1.2 .. What was i thinking lol.

Re: Disconnected hardcore

A tip from me when you're going for the 900 combo just don't stress to much over the bursts, this is where most people get a lot of their boos but if you focus hard on the section a couple of runs even if you fuck up your combo just try and read the bursts.
Once you know how to hit them it's pretty much obtainable.

Re: Disconnected hardcore

Looking back at this,
all you need is a 900 combo (as previously said from other users)
So once you reach 900 you don't have to try so hard on the rest of the damn chart.
You can get misses, hell, even hit only 3 arrows instead of all four.

Also, for the jackhammer whatthefxckit's called part.
I used to quad then tap the extra notes. Iono if that'll help but it did for me, [back then]

Re: Disconnected hardcore

I didn't find getting this too difficult... Just reach 900 combo and then focus more on hitting as little as possible and not hitting boos. There isn't a miss limit.

the bursts aren't the hard part at all. it's the dam jacks, and the jacks into the trill.

and yeah, once i reach 900 notes, the rest is very conservative. lots of misses so no boos

Re: Disconnected hardcore

There should be some sort of skill token discussion thread where people can just give each other tips on whatever skill token they need help with. Does this not exist? also, Popsicle, I would recommend just trying everyday a max of ten - fifteen times. Eventually you will get it. You really don't want mind blocks on this song. You might also try to save some replays so you can practice/analyze the parts that are giving you the boos?

Re: Disconnected hardcore

Focus on getting the 900 combo in the first portion of the song. The only thing this leaves you with is the nasty 48th bursts at the end -- that part can be easily contended with by tapping the first note of each burst, and then a quad 1/24th of a note (2 frames-ish) after.

At that point, you have this thing:


There are a number of strategies you can take with this, but the number one goal is to ensure that your life drain isn't enough to end your run, and that you're comfortable. Some applicable strategies:

- 1.) hit only single jacks (6 L, 6 U, 6 D, 6 R)
- 2.) hit only the jumps -- this is a bit more uncomfortable, but it works.
- 3.) if you're good at reading, you can hit jumping gallops every beat, hitting the first and third 12th notes of every beat. It's a bit easier than strat 2, but it's tougher to read.
- 4.) play a mine game! Avoid the jacks and hit everything else around it -- I think you'll barely have enough to finish the song if you come into the ending with a full lifebar. EDIT: you'll have more than barely, you'll clear with almost 75% life.

Re: Disconnected hardcore

I don't know if I'd be of much help here, since this token was one of the very first I unlocked, even before [Heavy], haha. My best advice would be to not worry about mashing too much for the first 900 notes, then to miss as many notes as you like for the remaining notes, so long as you pass. You might want to try reading some of the trill patterns as jump-jacks; somewhere in the file there's a [14]23232[14], that may be easier to hit as [14][23][23][124]. If you're having trouble with the 5-note 48th bursts (e.g. 23412), try practicing those in isolation, or simplifying them (2[34][12] or 2[1234]).

Re: Disconnected hardcore

If I can do it on 2.3x without being able to understand anything you can do eet~

You should post a replay, im curious to see where you get boos.

Re: Disconnected hardcore

Implying boos are even close to the problem...

Oh the 24th jump jack into a 24th trill? It's fairly simple once you get used to it, Just worry about nailing the entire jack and don't focus so hard on the trill think of it as alternating the jack at the same speed.

Re: Disconnected hardcore

yeah my problem isn't w/ the bursts at all. it's w/ keeping the combo during the jacks. i'll post a replay. and yeah the ending is easy as well. just doing the anchor jack and a few other notes, and wamo
