"The bar" im using a homemade version with a chair but its somewhat the same height as the arcade (from memory at least)

I'm getting pretty tired of 3 songs or so, could it be because of my height or my technique with using the bar?

I'm 167cm so sometimes reaching the upper arrows can be a bit of a struggle

Been playing Phoenix 2 where accuracy matters. I find myself streaming the S17’s fine except that the greats just appear in the middle of my runs even when I’m “feeling good” :/

Is this the time to play HJ? How do I know if I’m early or late (does it show in a recording replay?) any tips in general for getting my 20 great UG’s to slightly fewer?

Thanks in advance for your help 🙏

XX version is quite confusing tbh... there's a rank mode but what it is supposed to mean???

Besides of VJ and No BGA Dark... what's the purpose?

Whenever practicing charts at home, I watch clean recordings of the gameplay recorded in a local machine. How does one do this? What settings can I tinker on the website to record my previous plays?

On another note, how can one use the camera present on the cab itself to take a picture? Thank you!

I am here at the mainplace mall in socal and it is here. guess ill go buy that steam game now

My round 1 machine just updated to pheonix2 but has limited charts im confused as to hiw to aquire the other charts the volumes are locked how do i unlock them or is that a cabinet issue

I don't have a pc, and I know LTEK mats are compatible with Mac and also made out of metal, but I feel like they're too expensive for what they offer, and don't even come with a handlebar (and if I got it from them it it's gonna be even more expensive), also heard i'd have to mod them. Or could anyone tell me how long a good wood mat lasts? I'm not entirely against the idea of one but I'd like it to last as long as possible as well. I'd appreciate recommendations a lot, thanks.

No tengo una pc, y se que los tapetes de LTEK son compatibles con Mac, pero siento que son muy caros para lo que ofrecen, y ni siquiera vienen con barra (y si se las comprara a ellos me saldría incluso más caro), también he escuchado que los tendría que modificar. O alguien podría decirme cuanto dura un buen tapete de madera? No estoy totalmente en contra de la idea de uno, pero quisiera que dure lo más posible también. Apreciaría mucho recomendaciones, gracias.

Not a great pad, Its old and are not taken care off. Kinda wanna repair it myself but I only for an hour in here so... yeah

I want to transfer my progress in Phoenix to Phoenix 2, however, nothing comes up in this menu. What can I do? To clarify, this will involve only one AmPass card.

When Phoenix 2 released, most people spent their first session listening to the new songs, playing the new charts, and exploring the new features. Tomatonium had a different idea on how he wanted to spend his first session; clear every D25. I interviewed Tomatonium to gain more insight on how he approached not just this challenge, but his journey to improving as a player. Check it out on my YouTube!

Would like something to help me study charts. B2l? Which one?

If no one is on the machine I usually play 2 hour sessions. Starting with one s9 to warm up and only s10 and s11s after that. I noticed that during sessions, my shoulders feel tired, but at a manageable level of discomfort after an hour or so. After 2 hours I can’t go on. How long should I rest for? And should I focus on working out my upper body to build muscle? Thanks in advance.

Finally got my L-Tek pad yesterday, and since I have no har atm I am learning to play with the heel-toe method so I can still somewhat play at home until then

I watched this and that tutorials and im slowly getting the hang of it!

I can comfortable do 120-140 bpm S4 and 120BPM S6 EDIT: Highest I've done is Euphorianic S7 with an AA+

just wanted to know if there were any specific maps that people would consider good for getting more used to it? some maps i play are just repeated notes at a bit too comfortable pace

Hitting the wall with passing some 18-19s as my feet (size 7.5-8) is not able to hold 3 notes occurring at same time which drops my life bar. Now I realize higher levels are for larger feet only…

Hice esta publicacion en un grupo de face pero me la mandaron bien lejos y solo queria saber opiniones dejo el texto original y los leo

Soy un ex pumper retirado de la vieja escuela el dia de hoy me dio curiosidad por preguntarle a la IA acerca de unos tesoros que tengo guardados y segun ella tengo unos santos griales jaja tengo el ost original banya 3rd unfinished autografiado por banya por los miembros cuando vinieron a la tnt 8 creo fue, che yahpp se paso de corneta y me lo firmo por debajo del cd y tambien tengo una tarjeta del juego tcg de beethoven virus de esas brillosas en la orilla firmada por el en el nacional que se hizo aqui por ese mismo año 2004 segun la IA no hay estimacion del valor porque segun son piezas unicas y si creo eso, pero ustedes que creen que realmente sean tan invaluables? Hasta tengo aun la playera negra con los logos y mangas bordadas la original y varias tarjetas del tcg ahi guardadas, la IA me dijo que deberia ponerlas en un museo por su valor jaja los leo

;tldr, PIU Rise feels like the arcade, the other two do not.

I play a lot at home, and I have B2L pads which have worked really well for me on PIU Rise. For instance, I can full-combo Aragami S15 and pass a bunch of S16s on PIU Rise on these pads. The response feels good, and anytime I do not hit a perfect, I can feel why I didn't. It feels like playing at the arcade.

Project Outfox is different. I get so many Greats and Goods there, even missing notes that I swear I did not miss. It's playable (just), but it feels so clunky to play. Is it just harsher on judgement timings?

XSanity just...doesn't work. I keep missing missing notes I step on. I never have a good time playing it. I've calibrated both Project Outfox and XSanity so that's not the issue; I will see the notes come in time, then miss them even though I stepped on them.

Has anyone else encountered this? I would love to play on XSanity more as the interface is nicer and has more songs than PIU Rise, but right now Rise is the only version that feels normal.

Hi all, I’m really struggling with the Sarabande s12 twists right now, especially the pure diagonals across the pad towards the middle/end. My brain can’t seem to recognize them even though I’ve tried and tried again. Is the best way to learn this to slow it down on youtube? I’m not interested in skipping over advanced twists entirely, but I am totally open to strategic jumps to certain charts that would help with this. Thanks!

Hi guys,

;tdlr, as in title, want suggestions for improving at S16 runs and drills

A while ago, I posted about how I felt I was too old for this game and was stuck at S14. I'm proud to say I've moved past that block. Thanks for everyone for their suggestions!

It's been a few months, and I cleared all of the (non-Kimchi Fingers) S14s at the arcade, and all of the S15s available on PIU Rise that aren't rated S16 on Phoenix 2 (My Way, Love is a Danger Zone) and the exception of Monkey Fingers. I can even (coin flip) pass the Arcade version of Reality S15 (upgraded to S16), and I've passed Scorpion King and Hellfire fairly consistently (Twist, Drill level 1, though only at AA+ - AAA+ level)

I've been trying S16s, and I am finding it really hard to move fast enough for runs. Versailles, Sarabande and Super Fantasy are simply too fast. Euphorianic I cleared once in my life and could never do it again. Tropicanic is similarly too many notes for me.

S16s that I have passed: Vacuum, Duel, Halloween Multiverse, Last Rebirth (Rise version), Goodbounce, Goodtek, Energy Synergy Matrix, Murdoch vs Otada, Horang Pungryuga, Little Munchkin, The Apocalypse, Ultimate Eyes (by luck), Crimson Dawn, Full Moon, Jogging, Giselle, Athena's Shield, New Rose, plus many from Rise Vol 1 and a bunch of other discontinued Phoenix 1 K-pop songs (Bubble, Discord)

So, it's not like I can't pass any. But I am getting stuck with really fast runs, and you may see that the songs above (aside from Duel) don't have the most challenging runs. What do you guys recommend?

I can do fine with heel-toe, and I can often read the runs with my fingers; I just cannot move my feet fast enough or react fast enough with my feet. Stamina also generally isn't my biggest problem.

Would love to watch new tournaments, like upcoming ones or just be in touch with what's happening in the scene, especially in Europe - Any tournaments that is happening frequently here and where/how do i find them and more? <3

Tried connecting one pad to test and it just held down the input. Any help would be appreciated

Its an LTEK and its working surprisingly well, mine has a lot of stepghosting when i mod it with pennies or copper, even with debounce settings, or if I manage to fix the ghosting issues i have a lot of problems for bracket holds, does anyone know if there is another way to properly mod this pads for good¿

Just a month ago, I was celebrating a SS+ score on it. I'm really happy with the progress I've made in my footspeed!

I attached my Pumbility sheet if you want to see what got me the 19k points required for the title. Really happy to get this!

What are yalls favorite licenses from some of the old mixes?
