    Re: 2 Questions.

    it all depends on the song. if you have a 10 minute long song that isn't repetitive and is fun to play all the way though, i have no problem adding it.

    like TMWT.

      i like long files you dont have to combo it all if your not good enough
      on a long file you get more spaces to build a big combo even if you mess it up at several points also your playing more on pa so i like it and blue army especially

      i would love to see full versions even if they take longer to create they would be more epic
      i think any good piece of music can be a good stepfile if there are breaks in the music just enjoy yourself rest your fingers and wait for the action

      +1 full version support

        Generally on FFR most long songs are cut to no more than 4 minutes except a select few. The limit seems to have been set to 5-6 min now but most songs still range in the 2-3 min range unless its a good file in its entirety they might allow the full version. That's just my theory.

          Re: 2 Questions.

          My only issue is that I can already tell that if you allow explicitly much longer songs, what you'll get are FMOs and FGOs as 3:00 songs, being pulled out to 6:00, 7:00.

          And while I'm all for giving the expert folk lots to do at the top end, We do need to keep an eye on our middle difficulties. I just have the idea in my head that songs over 5 or 6 minutes that even as 5-6 minute songs would only be 5/12-7/12, that they'd be denied as "To boring and repetitive for how long it is"

              Songs like Sakura No Senshi and Less Talk More Rock are the perfect example of that.

                I just don't want to see stating that long songs are good resulting in a huge pile of endurence-based mash fests that go on forever.

                  The long song I enjoy the most is MAX Forever. As much as people hate the trills in this song, it has a lot of various songs that kick in and make it different the whole way which comes to my next thought of not having songs like AIM Anthem and Death Piano, ever.

                    The long song I enjoy the most is easily Bicycle Break. It's a good example of a song that can be long without being boring, and non-repetitive without being a crazy mashfast.

                    Something like Song for the Nihonjins is just really repetitive and I actually tend to do more poorly on it for its difficulty than I should because I almost get lulled by the repetition.

                      Re: 2 Questions.

                      Agreed. Long songs are only worthwhile if they have some sort of inherent variety in steps/sound/etc

                            the songs being cut seem pretty long anyway, from VS anyway, because all the steps are insane(ly fun) and take for example szamar madar and frictional nevada, the beginnings are about 2 mins of pure ratings of easy. it would be a little tedious, despite how awesome they sound. so are the ends, but frictional nevada's end would be amazingly hard to step, and not to mention amazingly hard to hit
