I'm at a plateau

[JuStSkiLLz]

here's an example of how I can't get any better. No matter how many times I play songs over and over, practicing, etc etc I just cannont improve. I'm unsure of how people get so amazingly good at this game, they say practice and all I do is practice and I have a lot of fun playing the game, I just would like to know if there's something I'm doing wrong or something I can do to better myself. thanks!

Everyone plateaus. It sucks, but really you just need to practice more. Going in to it thinking you can't get any better will definitely make it a slower process.... Are you playing split or one handed? If split, try a different layout for a while, if youre playing one handed, you need to move to split.... At 238 combo on asb i'm assuming you're split

Play stepmania, play more varied songs, get better over time.

Re: I'm at a plateau

here's more examples of where my skill is currently at, forgive the picture quality this is before I figured out how to make a proper SS... sorry.

For the record I can FC all difficult - very difficult songs. I have good days and bad but the last couple have weeks there's been no improvement what-so-ever.

HD#5 first FC.


SOSB first FC.


NeoMax, I have nearly FC'ed it, just a bit depressed on this song.


NoF I had gotten a better combo, I would have had 1000+ on this if I didn't zone out.


Enthusia. not sure where the FC is, sigh.


FoL. I absolutely love this song.


as you can see my skills are very limited, I'm not very good. Seemingly never going to be.

Re: I'm at a plateau

as far as stepmania is concerned I downloaded it and got a few songs but I don't know how to get all the songs I see most people talking about or playing. I don't know how to make it faster than C400, or even what that means, I've been looking for things about stepmania to help me out but I'm kind of lost.
