Re: Rates higher than 1.0 should record

yes, not like they are getting easier by being on 1.1, 1.5, 2.0, etc lol

Agree

Re: Rates higher than 1.0 should record

I would agree, but it gives people on R^3 and advantage because none of the other engines can support rates. Some people can't use it due to compatibility issues.

No (Even though personally, I would like them to very much)

doesnt really make sense, this only affects people who DO use them. Not like people who cant are missing out on anything, right?

it would be an advantage if rates under 1.0 were recorded

Grand total farming, pattern cheating, etc.

Re: Rates higher than 1.0 should record

Yeah its not really an advantage since in theory it makes the songs harder. I dont ever really use the R3 engine, but if rates recorded i probably would use it for them to practice instead of FFRMANIA. lol

Re: Rates higher than 1.0 should record

There are situations where something like 3434/1234 could be hit with jump trills perfectly where you would normally have to tap it out. Yes a majority of patterns become much harder, but some can become easier and even though the overall difficulty of the song gets higher, the required skills to perfect the song change. So essentially its an uneven playing field, you're comparing two different difficulty songs for scores.

Its not that I don't want them to record, I would love to get credits/GTS while still being able to train speed. But it would be unfair to everyone who doesn't use this engine. It would be nice to have 3 scoreboards, Raw, Combo, Rates after the site change. I think that could make it work.

the nice thing about rates is that patterns stay the same

as for grand total farming, that's a valid reason but... I don't think grand total has ever mattered to anyone, outside of dendrite v2 and I think vROFL

Yes a majority of patterns become much harder, but some can become easier and even though the overall difficulty of the song gets higher, the required skills to perfect the song change.

this would happen to such a small amount of songs that it'd be fairly irrelevant

Re: Rates higher than 1.0 should record

Yes some become alot easier, BUT also the rest of the patterns in the song will become harder, its not like every pattern will become easier in the song so it makes it an easy aaa. :P

I mean rates make the song faster, the patterns become squished, harder to read/hit, so making a few easier is cancelled out by making the rest harder lol

No credits no GTS, and then yes I agree

Sounds fair lets do diss

Re: Rates higher than 1.0 should record

No credits no GTS, and then yes I agree

how about something like this:

the credits/score you earn for songs is divided by the rate; anything under 1.0 rate gets no credits and no score
