Hahahaha... Nah, I'll just keep practicing it until I can finally clear it. Last time on HBG 7key I got up to 100% until the end... then I failed because it returned to the tough pattern the beginning throws out with lots of 1,3,and 4 key hits. X-x
On 7-key I finally beat Presto, and I got my Sync score up to a B... though, the end knocks me right back down to failing every time. >.< Lamour et la liberte did the same thing to me. I finish the song with a B, and with 78% life... the roll right at the end nails me every time... I always seem to start off on the wrong key, and can't get it back. X_x 100% right down to 70's. I love it how that happens sooooo much on 7key. Wooo!!!
It's like... "haha, think you beat me? NO! Go back home you loser that can't do weird 16th note chain combinations!" I can't believe the huge step I made in IIDX just today alone... it's ridiculous. Something just clicked in my mind, and I started to be able to read my left and right hand seperately, so I could finally pump out more than one rhythm at once. Crazy... _________________

Heck yeah man! I love it when I get these IIDX EXP boosts too. I've found that it happens to us all, but the problem is, are you just having a good day? Because I have come back and been BITCHED by the same songs that I've own3d, and in public too .
Now if I could just make it through this Saturday Expert Course.... _________________

Holy crap!!!!! Last week I couldn't beat The Safari L7 from 6th style... and now I'm clearing it with 100% life with an A!!! 1 more A to get on 6th style L7... G2. That is tough to score on. X_x
Yeah, these crazy boosts in skill overnight are ridiculous! _________________

I've been playing IIDX for quite some time and i still gotta say, G2 is a doggy on light 7 or 7 key. _________________

I'd say so. I don't really know what's tough about the ending of G2 [7], but it always destroys my groove gauge. _________________

G2 is much more forgiving on light14 than it is on light7. After clearing it, I quickly wanted to play the 14keys version, but then I had to quit to go practice for a DDR tournament coming up.... I'll give it a try later, but I have to say that G2 is overrated to be a 6* on light14. _________________

Ha ha, sorry. I just got done with an incredibly frustrating play of IIDX... I don't usually use such negatively strong words as "loathe"... but, ugh. I kept failing Absolute 7-key with a 78%... and I can't seem to pump it up that extra 2 percent... not to mention get above a 60% anymore. Ugh... I probably tried it 20 times in a row... the end always gets me.
|
Reminds me of Love Will[a]. First time I tried it I got 70%, then couldn't get above 40% for the longest time. That's the point when you stop for a while and just try other stuff, then come back to the song later. Otherwise you get frustrated and sick of the same song.
And playing various songs on random is still just awesome for improving your skill. |

Finally got all my A's on L7(well, I did that like 3 days ago). Ugh, that took a long time for G2... 59 AA's, 2 AAA's, and 8 A's for L7 on 6th style. Phew.
G2 is crazy on 7key. I know, the ending is pretty much the same as the L7 ending... just with a few scratches added here and there, and a few extra keys here and there. Though, I, too, get demolished by the end. Hahaha, but the rest of the song also demolishes me... so I guess it's fair that I finish with around 50%... I can't even do the part with the bass line mixed with those other melodies(so, pretty much the entire song). Hahaha... oh well. It's times like this when I wish I had another style to play... so I could add to my variety, and sight-read new songs and new sequences. I guess right now I'll have to settle for random+mirror. =/ Though, it doesn't help with deriving new melodies... which new songs would do. =/ _________________

Me too. But it's weird. On some days, the ending kills me, but on others, it helps me. And then there are days when I just can't get above 30% at all. >_< |

K-Zero: when we had 4th style at Golfland, it was rated a 1-star, and everyone picked who picked Tangerine Stream for their first song ever ALWAYS failed. Some people who picked 5.1.1. got it and some others didn't, but at least they didn't have a 100% failure rate ;-)
It was bumped up to a 2-star rating in later styles FYI. |

Well, the day of passage into IIDX finally happened to me tonight. With G2, 7key... My first flashing-7 song cleared! =D I only had a B... but, none-the-less, I finished with 92% life. =D Yeah... well, I just got overly excited when I cleared G2... wasn't expecting to, but it sorta just happened... crazy. I guess the end in 7key isn't much different from the end in L7... so, that's why I was able to clear it. I played the L7 to death, until I got an A on it...(that song is hard to score on). =D So excited...
I thought I remembered seeing a "first flashing-7" thread... but that would be a "survey", so it was probably locked. =/ _________________

Isn't coming close, and failing with a B, A, or AA the case for most songs on Another? _________________

Don't forget the other 65 songs on 6th style now . They are all great fun, and they are all great songs too, although I can only tolerate Luv To me (disco mix) for so long. _________________
