It's just kinda dumb that pp (score, I get) is completely dependent on combo/fullcombo. If you mess up the precious combo, your score is pretty much completely worthless. And it makes short songs OP. Even though I know rank isn't important, it makes me not want to play long songs, when a 4 minute long song will give me the same amount of pp as some boring, generic 80 second long TV size OP, despite being way more challenging.

Osu's entire elitist ranking system is easy to abuse and get top ranks by doing nothing. Top tier players (See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTn0Y5tqNQQ for examples) can be identified as good by playing long songs and performing consistently over long periods of time with a wide variety of notes

I stopped playing standard after 3 months and just went to Taiko and CTB with Taiko being my main mode. The issue is it tries to emulate Taiko no Tatsujin but doesn't because it forces the combo to win system.

Also mods are stupid and shouldn't offer bonus points

>> No.12660476

>>12656078
I think that the current situation is causing a lot of misinformation regarding what is and is not allowed to be posted.

Home setups - if they're pictured with no direct link to arcade data or sows or anything of the sort, such as mine, are perfectly fine. For all you know I could be playing LR2, osu!mania, kshootmania, jubeat analyser, CS releases, etc.

The controllers are freely available for purchase outside of sows. If posting images of just controllers is banned, then DAO's got more of a problem than any of us - because he has many photos and actually makes and sells them :P

At the end of the day, common sense is all you need. I've never mentioned what I play and never given any images with real data running... that should be enough.

In regards to the price of the items:
I'm not sure what the price is for anywhere but where I'm from (the UK), but they are the following:

Jubeat controller (FB9), 310GBP.
The monitor I use for this is the Dell S2740L, which cost me 200 GBP at the time.

Reflec beat monitor is a Dell S2240T, which cost me 225 GBP at the time.

Pop'n is a DAO ASC, 220 GBP for the controller, 350 GBP (after import + shipping + tax) for the sanwa buttons - yes, this is a ridiculous price, I know.
the monitor is a Samsung UE32F4000 which cost me 170 GBP at the time.

The SDVX controller (SVRE9) cost 320 GBP, and approximately 150 GBP for the sanwa buttons.
The monitor used is a Samsung UE32F5000, which cost me 200 GBP at the time.

Finally, the one I'm sure you wanted to know in the first place, the IIDX controller (RED2nd) cost 800 GBP, sanwas included.
The monitor is a Samsung UE37EH5000, which cost me 170 GBP (and I guess another 20 GBP for fuel, as I needed to pick it up...). Good luck finding that monitor though, it's what I would call "perfect", but it's also extremely rare.

I also did some extensive modding to many of the controllers, and added some extra components overall to improve the experience. (1/2)

>> No.12660484

>>12660476
(2/2)

Obviously I haven't factored in the price of the machines to run the games themselves, nor mentioned their parts list, but that's for security and personal reasons.

I think overall (and I did work out the approximate amount recently), I've spent around 4,000 GBP in total on these machines, with the intention of spending another 500 to finish "everything".

In the future, when I have more space and more money, I will probably begin work on a Guitar Freaks, Drum Mania, Keyboard Mania, and Dance Evolution setup, and maybe more if I feel like it. For now though, I'm pretty happy with what it is.

Hope this answers any of your questions.

Start with one game. I'm saving up for a Pop'n controller at the moment and it's not that difficult. One I get that, I'll move onto double twodicks and then go to the shit that can't offline from there.

Basically, do it if you know you love this shit and are willing to play the game until the controller is paid off because playing on an asc is miles better than anything you can come up with. (PS3 Dualshocks are a decent subsitute while money is saved)

>>12660509
I think I am literally the only person in the scene with this sort of setup right now.

There are people out there with machines which, depending on your luck, could come cheap, but are otherwise expensive. But these are outliers.

You can happily play IIDX with a budget controller (FP7 is the lowest I would recommend) which would cost 200 shipped.

My setup is "as close to the arcade experience as possible", going so far as to spend insane amounts of money and time getting specific monitors, specific micro-switches, specific buttons, writing custom cost and making custom embedded OS images. I am not the norm.

At the end of the day, I had money to spend and I wanted to spend it on my biggest hobby right now. If you're on a budget, there's options for you - you're just not going to end up with a setup like mine :P

>Raw Input + 2.0-2.4 sens
Most mouse players use raw input and 1.0 sensitivity, and adjust DPI accordingly. It's hard to judge what sensitivity you're actually playing at given the above information, seeing as how you could be playing at 100dpi in a 1080p window, or 3200dpi in a 800x600 window.
For reference, the sweet spot among a good deal of mouse players is (assuming 1920x1080 play area) is around 800DPI, with some players going as low as 400 and some as high as 1200, but I find 800 is a good place to start and adjust how you want.
If you're playing on a super high DPI, aiming is going to be hard as fuck because you have to make millimeter-perfect movements

Hello, you called?

I am Voltenizer Maxima again, here to inform you guys that you need to stop using our BEMANI tracks to enhance your circle clicking experience.

You think i'm joking? Look at these abs. I will senselessly beat the shit out of you while screaming *yes*.

You are nothing but a circle clicking peasant. Come at me, circleclickers!

Konami took down all the bmn songs any way, and nothing of value was lost, since most of them were old AR7 maps and no one played them

I'm not playing IIDX for the same reason I'm not playing DDR or Guitar Hero. Those games are fucking boring.
I'm sure the top-level play requires much more skill than top-level play does in osu, no doubt at it, especially with people playing 14K charts, I don't even understand how that shit is possible, but the gameplay is just so fucking tedious that I don't understand how anyone gets to that level in the first place. At that point, you may as well just play an actual piano. The aiming aspect of osu is the only thing that sets it aside from other rhythm games, and it also happens to be the only aspect I find entertaining.
For fuck's sake, if that's what you want to do, go for it, but you and other BEMANIfags with your pompous, elitist attitudes are so irritating that even if I DID find IIDX interesting, I wouldn't play solely because it would be associating with pricks like you.

honestly we aren't all evil elitist pricks

i play lots of BEMANI and I can agree that 2DX is really, really boring. I generally stick to SDVX (which may look shitty but it's still really fun).

the BEMANI community has been this way for a long time and it isn't going to change because the main core of it (the games) are pretty well hidden, for good reason too.

You should only get it if you plan to play fullscreen (borderless) all the time, as you can't change area size.

Have you looked at the rhythm games thread recently?
Konami is perfectly willing to sue over this shit. That is what'll happen if this shit gets any more public.

Inb4: But you guys are playing arcade rips and those are illegal! Go look at your game and tell us with a straight face that it isn't a ripoff and you will be wrong.

It's sad, but Konami did give the west a chance for IIDX... they just fucked it up horribly.

Console version of Beatmania was pure shit, they tried to do a testing of Happy Sky awhile back, and now they just don't care about the west.

It's horrible that the western Bemani community has to rely on illegal methods just to play their favorite games.

It's a necessary evil to keep the scene alive, but I feel like it's too jarring for newcomers to the series.

Because it's a lame Guitar Hero ripoff.

I think it's getting a lot more popular, since a lot of the streamers that people watch play it occasionally.

The OWC stream also gets quite some viewers, making it appear in twitch games.

That being said, you have to remember that most of the people around your rank is playing too, and getting a little more PP here and there. Don't worry about your rank, it'll come in bursts if you just try to challenge yourself a bit. (I went from 80k -> 60k, 60k -> 40l and so on)
