Re: Speedmods

Everyone's different for some people bumping up is helpful and for some its not. I moved up a few times. I now play 2.25x and can play up to 2.75x but that's just a little excessive lol. I can't seem to do well on anything under that because I hit early otherwise. Bumping up worked for me because I have less reaction time. Adjusting from 1.85 to 2.0 shouldn't be too hard for you just takes some practice.

Re: Speedmods

History of my speedmods.
April 07-June 07: 1x
June 07-December 07: 1.5x
December 07-July 08: 1.75x
July 08-March 09: 2x
March 09-Death of FFR: 1.95

Current: 1.89x

Why 1.89? It just seems perfect to me. 1.9 is like fast for me and 1.88 seems crammed together to me, especially on tricky parts.

Re: Speedmods

Pre FFRDeath - 1.5X
Post - 1.65X
A little more after - 1.75X
Now - 1.8X

I will probably max out at 1.9 eventually.

Re: Speedmods

1.85 > 2.0 might be too large of an increase for such a short period of time. Try to increase in increments of .5 every two days or so.

Faster speed mods don't necessarily make you better per say, but they make it easier to READ denser step charts; REACTING to them is a completely different thing.

I'm using 1.85 right now, and don't really plan on increasing it anytime soon.

Re: Speedmods

It's a really gradual thing to increase the speed. I just increased with the realization that at a certain point, the speed just felt a little too slow to me.

What sucks about adjusting to faster speedmods is going back to play easier songs (to AAA, fix a score what have you) because I feel so much more jumpy seeing fewer arrows on the screen but having to react quickly even with very slow files..

Re: Speedmods

Been playing on 2.5 then back to 2.0. It's helped but it's still a bit too fast for me so I'll stay on 1.9 for the next few days. Thanks for the tips guys.

Re: Speedmods

Just a question, are you messing yourself up every time you switch from SM to FFR or vice versa?
