FFR Physical limits?

[agashka]

Hi, I've noticed something. I started playing back in Nov 2006, from there till June 2007, Ive made ALOT of progress, i started with Trip To The Moon, then got to the Challenging/Very Challenging songs. I also remember I was able to *almost* FC Vertex Beta back in august 2007. Now, back today, May 2008, 9 months after this, I still can't FC Vertex Beta, I think i reached my physical limits, i can't hit much faster. What to do?!

what setup do you use?

Go play Stepmania. Sometimes its "that" certain simfile you play that just gives you that extra skill boost. FFR doesnt fail you; so playing harder songs on FFR wont help you improve as much as playing the more strict Stepmania.

well the same thing happened to me. i played index for a year and then i realized "Im not getting any better" so i decided to switch to spread. and at first i was like "dude this is gay" but now a month later im already better then in was index. so i guess just switch to spread if ur not already. one handed trills just take some time to master. hope this helps.

Re: FFR Physical limits?

To be honest, there aren't any limits, only implied limits meant to be broken.
I've played a really awkward style for as long as i've played, and thought that i've reached my skill cap, but I constantly see improvement in accuracy and speed.

Switiching playing styles shows weakness to me; that you weren't able to do well enough on your own style. Breaking barriers are the most impressive achievements imo.

Practice and push your own limits.

Practice and push your own limits.

But don't push TOO far, you will get CTS!

Re: FFR Physical limits?

yea, like the one said, stop playing harder songs, thats what i did. I was so pissed that i couldnt AAA anything, and i went back and basically retaught myself ffr, started with easy easy songs and kept going up, just yesterday i got my first challenging aaa. Just practice on easIER songs till those are mastered and continue on like that.

Play harder better songs. You will become faster stronger. Or Daft Punk.

Re: FFR Physical limits?

I say you keep trying. I FC'd VB randomly. I didn't expect it at all! I also play AS KL spread. Just keep practicing.

Sometimes a short break from FFR will increase your skill.

Re: FFR Physical limits?

Personally i can't stand Stepmania, i can't hit anything or even hope to pass. I play on FFR not because it's less strict but cause it's what i know and love. taking a small break once in a while does help. i've only been playing tourneys and the occasional 1 hour session and i can now FC Faces [Heavy]. (I still just can't combo Max Forever though, it's irritating)
