Rhythm Game Megathread v1 - Don't stop moving to the funky funky beat - Games

Stop using the mouse buttons to click, use your other hand to click with Z and X keys Mouse is way more stable when you just aim with it, instead of doing both clicks and aim

[QUOTE=Orkel;49098188]Stop using the mouse buttons to click, use your other hand to click with Z and X keys Mouse is way more stable when you just aim with it, instead of doing both clicks and aim[/QUOTE] o thanks mang always wondered why whenever i watched osu playthroughs the keyboard was being used [editline]November 11th 2015[/editline] this is going to take a LONG time to get used to and my left index and middle fingers are getting tired too

nevermind fuck this i'm switching back to mouse i don't care what you say. no way in hell.

Hey Orkel while you're still here, do you have any taiko tips? I remember you posting lots of taiko game play on the osu v1 thread (I think that was before I was registered even).

[QUOTE=Trixil;49099410]nevermind fuck this i'm switching back to mouse i don't care what you say. no way in hell.[/QUOTE] When I used the mouse I found I could keep the mouse more stable when I right clicked instead of left. I could just be weird though since I use my ring and middle finger instead of my index finger with the keyboard. [editline]aaaaa[/editline] Also does anyone have any advice on how to deal with short sliders overlapped with each other clustered with regular notes? I'm slowly starting to get into 3 star beatmaps and it kills me when these colossal blobs of notes just appear out of nowhere and they always completely kill my flow too because these people will just crap these slider-clusterfucks all over the place right in the middle of a drum pattern or something and I can never understand what it's supposed to synchronize with or sound like so I can hardly get past the maps that have them, even more so than maps that have square jumps and streams.

Would you use no fail?

did anyone here buy rb4 or gh:l i'd love to see some facepuncher footage

[QUOTE=Orkel;49098188]Stop using the mouse buttons to click, use your other hand to click with Z and X keys Mouse is way more stable when you just aim with it, instead of doing both clicks and aim[/QUOTE] I used W / D because significant difference in finger length + that's my resting hand position even while playing not-shooters or even browsing facepunch

[QUOTE=Qaus;49102229]did anyone here buy rb4 or gh:l i'd love to see some facepuncher footage[/QUOTE] I want RB4 so bad but I don't have a PS4. ..or the money for the instruments since I don't have my old ones anymore after moving

[QUOTE=n0cturni;49102157]For osu! can you basically do the same thing? Would you use no fail?[/QUOTE] in my opinion, you should use it only when there's a certain part that keeps killing you eg. some ultrafast spaced shitstream

[QUOTE=Trixil;49099410]nevermind fuck this i'm switching back to mouse i don't care what you say. no way in hell.[/QUOTE] You will never be able to play well with mouse only, better grind skill on ZX [editline]12th November 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=NotMeh;49102647]in my opinion, you should use it only when there's a certain part that keeps killing you eg. some ultrafast spaced shitstream[/QUOTE] Using the edit mode works for that since you can choose a certain part of a map and play it over and over again

[QUOTE=Orkel;49102714]You will never be able to play well with mouse only, better grind skill on ZX[/QUOTE] ok i'll try keyboard again actually, i have a great idea; how about i somehow change my desktop bindings so i use z and x to click on stuff to try to get used to it?

[QUOTE=Trixil;49103989]ok i'll try keyboard again actually, i have a great idea; how about i somehow change my desktop bindings so i use z and x to click on stuff to try to get used to it?[/QUOTE] just keep playing with it thats how you get good at things its called practice

[QUOTE=Orkel;49102714]You will never be able to play well with mouse only, better grind skill on ZX[/QUOTE] uhh pretty sure there's a mouse only player in [I]at least[/I] the top 100

am i the only person who can't stand background video and combo bursts because they're so distracting also [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/zQ4LxpM.png[/IMG] that curve at the very end

[QUOTE=NotMeh;49104048]uhh pretty sure there's a mouse only player in [I]at least[/I] the top 100[/QUOTE] I just went through the top 100. There is only 1 mouse-only player ( [url]https://osu.ppy.sh/u/951170[/url] ) There are 6 mouse+ZX players There are around 90 tablet players (unsurprisingly the best way to become good) There are 2 touchscreen players Rest unknown/don't show

[QUOTE=NotMeh;49104048]uhh pretty sure there's a mouse only player in [I]at least[/I] the top 100[/QUOTE] Mouse only is viable but still not advisable. Yes you can get good with it but you'll be a lot better with keyboard. [QUOTE=n0cturni;49101856]Also does anyone have any advice on how to deal with short sliders overlapped with each other clustered with regular notes?

[QUOTE=n0cturni;49102157]For osu! can you basically do the same thing? Would you use no fail?[/QUOTE] All in moderation. Playing with nofail is fine IF you have a goal (better acc is probably the best goal). General rule of thumb: if you want to get faster, play things you struggle to physically keep up with and shitacc them until you get better. If you want to get more consistent (better reading, better aim, hold combos easier) then play long maps that you can just about FC. Here's a guide I wrote a few years ago on the forums: [url]https://osu.ppy.sh/forum/t/99612[/url] On a separate topic, UK vs SK this Sunday. I think we're totally fucked but I've seen myself and the team surprise us before so it's worth a shot.

i dare someone to be the #1 best player at osu using only the steam controller

Anybody play Crypt of the Necrodancer? I just painstakingly beat zone 3 with Monk.

[QUOTE=Trixil;49112957]i dare someone to be the #1 best player at osu using only the steam controller[/QUOTE] Imagine playing osu on a trackpad. Now put that trackpad onto a controller and try to use it

[QUOTE=Lichs;49114342]Imagine playing osu on a trackpad. Now put that trackpad onto a controller and try to use it[/QUOTE] ...a steam controller has two trackpads what are you on about?

nah man real men use the gyro. v:v:v [editline]14th November 2015[/editline] i tried [vid]http://3kv.in/~techbot/ShareX/2015/11/14/2015-11-14%2017-12-43.webm[/vid] [editline]14th November 2015[/editline] for some reason I always try to use it like a wiimote

i have a question; what do you do when you're feeling really depressed and demotivated at osu?

Jack off

Masturbate

perform onanism

i [I]finally[/I] beat [URL="https://osu.ppy.sh/b/795108"]this[/URL] beatmap on hard. my health levels have received the workout of their lifetime.

dunno what i was expecting from that song
