Re: FFR wins over SM

i like stepmania better, but ffr's multiplayer feature blows sm out of the water.

Re: FFR wins over SM

FFR for me is a lagged up, low frame rate game which I can only do decently with SCutting and not speedmods.

SM is not laggy, and so tech speaking is better for pure gameplay of hitting arrows.

Re: FFR wins over SM

Oh please.... FFR can't even support BPM changes! What the hell is wrong with you people?

StepMania is more powerful, has online compatibility, a huge amount of features, and custom themes/noteskins/anything.

I don't know how you can think about FFR being better than SM. FFR is a freaggin flash, StepMania is an actual program that is more powerful than any flash can be.

And I bet there are some people out there that'll say,"SO?!?! FFR CAN BE PLAYED ANYWHERE, IT'S LIKE PORTABLE LOLOLOLOL!"
So? Get a freaggin 2 gig flash drive and stick StepMania in it. Now you have a portable StepMania engine that you can take anywhere.

FFR does support BPM changes. TGwP 1-5 has a BPM change like every 1/6 of the song or so.

Both games have unique features that the other doesn't, so they can't really be compared. This has been said many times.

Re: FFR wins over SM

The whole point of this thread really is that now that FFR has speedmods I don't really have much of a need to play SM and I was wondering if anyone else feels the same?

Since I've had Speed Mods I certainly haven't felt any more of a need to play FFR, except right when they came out. I'd rather take my 1,500 song SM library over FFR's song library any day.

And you know guys, if it wasn't for SM, how would we have all of the simfiles for FFR? Do you think people make the sims in Notepad or something? FFR owes a lot to StepMania.

If I didn't suck at FFR I would play it more though =P

Re: FFR wins over SM

I think each has their own strengths. You really cannot compare the two. It's kind of like the whole apples and oranges thing.

Quote For Truth

Stepmania:
Open Source Dance Dance Revolution Simulator

Flash Flash Revolution:
Closed Source Flash Dance Dance Revolution Esque Game.

You can't compare the 2 because they aim for different audiences. FFR is usually for quick games/simple play, whereas SM is for either defined home play or simulation ( Cabinets and Home games and such ).

I play FFR because I want to play FFR, which is a totally different game compared to SM.

but if you want to get totally technical, SM can win easily because of 3 things:
- Open Source
- User Expansion
- Accuracy

But, FFR is still good for what it's meant to be. :3

YEA! 43 misses and bad PA on MAX Forever! Woohoo.

Have fun reading C600 on a tiny screen with choppy scroll! FFR is great don't get me wrong, but you can't compare it to SM at all.

Re: FFR wins over SM

FFR and SM are two different games. But in like 3 or 4 years, when there's like 2000 songs and 3,000,000 members, then we'll talk.
