Krazy Rain second beta test

[gundalf]

I played some little bit... the overall style is nothing for me.
But still great to see an international key-sound game

[RazzyC]

no key sound and very annoy effect

=w=

[slayerr2314]

I believe it is actually key sounded, you just can't play "freestyle" the sounds. I'm not 100% sure since I haven't played since then. EZ2ON is a million times better.

But it is still good to see a game with international support.

some of their registration pages are not adapted for viewing in Firefox 1280x1024
But maybe that's just Firefox 3.5 glitch, dunno.
Anyway, this game's screenshots look like... err... dunno, visually improved Guitar Hero (or Frets on Fire) with more (or maybe less for someone) complicated controls. Actually kinda interesting for a newb to PC rhytm games like me.
But what I already dislike, is that it has only 5k and 7k modes. I know a lot of people who dislike controlling layouts with "central key" (but still, that's only our point of view).

edit: patcher do not understand cyrillic folders. Well, I guess noone except me gives a damn, lol.

I haven't tried this game due to the fact that it WILL NOT let me install it where I want. It asked me where I wanted to put it and I tell it. Then it says "Oh your drive is too small." Even though I told it NOT to put it on that drive anyway. I hate installers like that. I wish there was someway to tell it to stop.

I have a pretty fast computer so I should be able to run it just fine. I like the graphics (Yeah I'm a sucker for anything with shiny graphics) but I wonder how distracting it'll really be. The songs in the videos I saw on the site and youtube sounded really good though.

[Dreamcube017]

Alright I played it and I really like it. The graphics are really cool in my opinion. yeah, I'm a sucker for shiny graphics but the songs aren't half bad and I think it's kind of inovative to have a theme like it does.... Plus it doesn't lag for me like EZ2On does.

EDIT:

Whoa: is the KRain server (and site) down? I can't connect. I hope they don't look at the many reviews of "Oh it's too flashy" and then just be like "Ok no one likes it, only for Korea." I doubt that'd happen but I SURE hope it doesn't. ...sorry but I guess so many things like that kind of make me upset. I like the change. Well I'm not sure if the beta ended or what but I sure hope it opens back up because the site doesn't even work.

I think no one playing Crazy Rain except this Chinese guy and me at this time
I still don't know how the server really clean... nothing on the server...
even DJMTR still have user playing

anyway did anyone encounter this, the loading was really slow... it took me 2-5 minutes to just load the music...

The long notes seem to become a blind effecter IMO

Veee-eery interestng. This was a feature that I was hoping a IIDX emulator would eventually implement, and it doesn't even have to be real-time capture (for CPU/HD chugging concerns). Think of Quake-style demo record and playback where the engine allows you to render demo playback at non-real-time speeds.

Considering that IIDX (and Lunatic Rave) for example already records at least a fraction of play (for the stats comparison charts) demo recording/playback is already half there.
