Re: Scroll

Doesn't matter what scroll just be comfortable with whatever scroll you started out with. Changing to a different scroll won't magically make you better in the long run

However, a majority of music games (especially finger-gameplay) are downscroll. Beatmania, O2Jam, DJMax PC/PSP, Canmusic, Pop'n music, Guitar Hero, Rock Band, EZ2DJ, Drummania; I could go on but you get the idea.

As far as I know the games which default to upscroll are: DDR, ITG, FFR, Stepmania, ParaPara, GuitarFreaks, Pump it Up (most of these are dance games with feet).

Left right scroll are games like Taiko no Tatsujin, DJMax Technika and perhaps are a minority, Technika does it rather uniquely though. Oh yeah and the singer role for RB/GH lmao

It only really matters what scroll you would like to be accustomed to if you would like to play various music games in the long run. I love to play various rhythm games at the arcade or at home so I stick to downscroll as reading skills are transferrable between games. Even DDR/ITG(Not sure about PiU) has the option for downscroll too. However if you enjoy playing dance games more, perhaps sticking to upscroll isn't a bad idea. Otherwise, there are no distinct adv/disadvantages of any one reading scroll to the other

Re: Scroll

Personally, I've noticed that there is a bigger concentration of good downscroll player than upscroll player because we are fewer in numbers and tend to continue playing for a longer while.

Otherwise there isn't much of a difference in the playing style.

Re: Scroll

BTW a 'gotcha' of swapping between up and downscroll is that the length from 'earliest pixel note can be seen' to 'far end of receptor' can change depending on what game and theme it is. If it does -and- you don't change speedmods, not only are you coping with reading in the opposite direction, but you're also forcing yourself to adjust to a new reaction time! (Changes larger than 10-20ms start to make a big difference)
