    Question about scoring

    Well, I noticed there is a page that tells you how to get the skill tokens, so I'm focusing on some of the more "possible" ones right now.... ^_^ Simply passing Torinouta sounded easy, and it was, but..... I have a question about my final score..... here is a screenshot......



    Bad, I know. =/ I'm trying to get better. u_u I'm just not used to FFR's timing. Also, I'm aware of that glitch. What I want to know is why my score is soooo far off of the high score even though I got mostly Perfects. I mean, I didn't think I'm THAT bad......

    I hope I didn't miss this in a sticky somewhere, I did read stickies.

      Re: Question about scoring

      No, the main thing in scoring is combo. If you get a high combo, but low perfect accuracy, then you will get a high score.

      It is a wierd scoring system, but it advocates mashing and not focusing on accuracy.

          Oh. That's odd indeed. Well thank you.

          Also, does anybody know where to get 40 credits in a song? I don't know if a lot of songs do that but I'd just like a suggestion or two, I think I can do it.

              That's a really nice PA, especially since you're getting used to FFR.

              And yes, score is mostly determined by combo. Full Combo with bad PA beats good PA with low combo 99% of the time. That might change in the future with 3rd style being developed as we speak.
              Note to self Finish.

                  Thank you!

                  I didn't think it was that good, but I guess, since I am getting used to FFR, it's not too bad. I played Dazzling Soul and did much better though (1 Good >_<).

                      I don't think so, That's one of the few things that keeps FFR as a different game from stepmania. if FFR became PA based, it would basically become Stepmania.

                      "Oh, just my cock." Replied Foil.
                      "That just will not do." was keywii's response as she lunged for the scissors, pulled the blades apart, and clamped them down on the base of foil's shaft. Blood start gushing out of the wound where his penis used to be.
                      "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Yelled Foil in horror.
                      "Don't worry. I'm a wizard" uttered Keywii. And with that, Foil's penis grew back.

                          Any song with over 1300 notes will get you 40 creds for a fc.

                          Scoring: 1000*combo + 550*perfs + 275*goods + 55*ave - 20*boos - 310*miss
                          that is the exact formula. Check the stickies, they have all kinds of this standard info and tips.

                          Third style will have a stronger focus on pa.

                              Thanks for the info, Mr. Tasselfoot. I'm going to go check the Song List and click on some songs and see if they meet the score requirement.

                                  Basically, you need to score 2,000,000 points on a song to get 40 credits (This isn't actually exact for some odd reason, because even though it's a 50,000:1 ratio of score:credits, extra credits creep in here and there, and I think you can get 40 creds on like, 1,925,000 and up of thereabouts, maybe 1,950?)

                                  Traditionally, a full combo of 'Song for the Nihonjins' is considered one of the easiest ways to get 40 credits.

                                      I didn't have enough credits to purchase that one. =/ I went with {Blaze} instead. Thanks though!
