    Legacy?

    Alot of people can agree that a majority of the Legacy songs shouldn't even be included on the game and/or level ranks.

    However; i can see why some people that have mastered some of the old Synth files want the songs to be included simply for bragging rights.

    I support the idea of those bragging rights, but could there be an alternative way to show off the fact that you've mastered the old, crazy files, without having to include them in the level ranks?

    Maybe some sort of optional gadget relating to tier points on your profile displaying Legacy medals or something?

    Can you think of any alternative ways or would it just be better to include them in the level ranks?

    Re: Legacy?

    Well, the Legacy songs are included in your Token Level Ranks. I'm sure that veterans can see those stats. :3

    As for a physical way to brag that you accomplished, well.. there's always random thoughts, your picture albums on your profile, the Brag Board, your signature and videos you can add.

    Edit - After reading this again, I may not have been completely clear with my former statement. The Token Level Ranks do not count towards your AAA/FC bars on your profile (so, the overall average rank), but the list is still there for other people to see. I think it would be a great idea to remove the Legacy songs from the standard list and keep them in the Token Level Ranks. That way, they still matter, but aren't necessary. I'm not saying this because I find them difficult, I only have 7 more songs in that genre to AAA. I just think others would find it more fun. n.n

      Legacy is still here because it's not fair that new users don't have to play them and have good ranks...
      they are ffr's history hence why they are legacy

            Re: Legacy?

            This entire argument is pretty much Legacy players vs. non-Legacy players.

            I'd say go for removing them from the ranks, as they mostly fall FAR behind modern expectations (even the worst of non-legacy (such as Nova Pulser) completely own bluenote files) and mostly lack any sort of sync.
            The above post has a 50% chance of being useless. Potentially. Maybe.

                Legacy files are being removed from future engines, so no need to worry about them any time soon.

                      The issue the OP brought up is the level ranks mostly.

                      He's requesting that we implement another way to show we've "aaaed" these charts or done well on them other than having them in the level ranks.

                      Also something I've mentioned more times than I care to count:

                      It's still sitting there that the legacy charts still appear in both the token ranks and regular ranks. PICK ONE GOD DAMN IT. (Preferably the token ranks.)

                        well, since there a lot more legacy files then the ones just in legacy genre, that is gonna hurt a lot of people's ranks if we take them out.

                        i just got 14-0-3-2 on caprice...
                        you think i want that to go down the drain?

                            either way I saw on some thread at one point from an admin that no songs would be taken out of the public system that are already there

                              They wouldn't necessarily need to be taken out entirely just like modified so that the level ranks for them wouldn't included in the regular game's level ranks.
