Too much emphasis on full combo

[Ice-Dragon]

In my opinion a little too many points are awarded for a full combo. The size of your combo basically determines how well you did on a song. Anyone else have any thoughts on this?

[aleco]

Yeah, it needs to be changed.

[altairian]

this has been discussed to death...
I'm sure synth is aware that the combo based scoring system kinda sucks

Yes, we all know that the scoring system, as it is, sucks.

That took me one try you dink, and I was trying to make a point, not get a high score.

[Synthlight]

would everyone be willing to ditch their hi-scores and let me wipe the enter slate clean if we changed the scoring system? You are talking about half a million score records since I keep track of each persons score on each level.

FFR has to be as different as possible from the other simulators, having a score mainly based on max combo instead of "goods" and "perfects" helps in this way.

YES!! It wasn't that bad before, but now there is a challenge system and the whole scoring is based around combo. I lost cause I had 60 less of a combo, yet I wasted him in all the other areas.

[QreepyBORIS]

Oooh. Consult like..alot of people before changing, and make like 40 backups, in case.

For the love of God yes! (Make it a poll on the main page.)

good job, its true but you shouldn't miss on that song, I AAA'd. I get your point though. Fine I'll do it. And that's alot coming from me since I have almost all the good highscores :P I just dunno if i feel like redoing them all, but whatever.
I probably will stop playing ffr though for a long while when it happens cause I don't feel like replaying every song a ton of times and waiting 2/3 months for the highscores to become stable again and not change around like crazy. I'll probably play SM for the meantime and MAYBE come back in 2/3 months. But ya, I'm ok with it I guess.

[Moogy]

YES CHANGE THE SCORING SYSTEM WIPE THE HIGHSCORES GOGOGO

[User6773]

I could sacrifice my scores.

Here's my suggestion: http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/...=104378#104378

[Cenright]

I agree. Combos just skew results. I can be a boo-whore on Holy Night and could smoke Freak83.
