1.0X Speed

[OneHandNow]

Is it a weird thing if I find myself getting better PA with 1.0X speed than 1.75X or 2.00X Speed?

Today, I was playing 1.00X Speed for fun because I bought a song -- which automatically switched my speed from 2.00X to 1.00X..

And then I noticed I was getting better scores..

Is this a weird thing? And should I keep playing at 1.00X speed?

Does anyone else still play at 1.00X Speed?

You have to get used to a higher speed.
When i went from 1.50 to 1.75 to 1.875, my pa went from like say 50 goods in an fmo to 70-100, but after a few days of practicing it went down to like maybe 30-40, or maybe even lower.

etylukah still does and gets really good scores

edit: and dragon, that is not always the case. people can play better on 1.0 compared to 1.75 or something just because they have an a easier time reading the arrows. sure most people need some time to get used to faster speed mods but quite a few players do play better on 1.0

LOL
I just played Schmollbluk on 1.0X but I did alright.. combo'd halfway through but then the bursts got kind of hard to read ..

Reading 1.0X isnt really as hard as you may think :P
It's just a bit cramped together ---- but that's about it

Re: 1.0X Speed

there's a very good reason people don't read 1x anymore but I'm too lazy to explain it so post +1

Re: 1.0X Speed

I find adjusting to a new setting usually downs my scores a lot at first, but once I adjust it's usually beneficial.

1.0 screencut

Re: 1.0X Speed

If there are less arrows on the screen, it's easier to read, but with more arrows on the screen, it's harder to PA (unless you get used to it). That's how it is for me anyway.

Re: 1.0X Speed

1.0 +screen cut for most songs is what I use for my aaa's (been getting more 6 and 7's aaa'ed that way) but the reason your pa is better could be 1 of 3 reasons, the timing seems to be more precise for arrow presses (theory right there, no hard facts yet) your eyes can read slower patterns better than faster patterns, or you could just have mad luck.

Re: 1.0X Speed

depends on how good/fast you are at reading.
