Gold Timing

Season of Fireworks · 06-06-2008, 08:41 PM

So is the timing in Gold Cs just loose or easier or something than the previous styles? I think the timing window is a lot bigger because I'm getting high AAAs on stuff I couldn't before like Get On Beat WildStyle.

Either I'm just improving or Gold Cs timing is super easy what does everyone else think?

Yeah I Haven't Played On Timing This Good Since DistorteD Timing, Which Was Even Better Than Happy Sky's Timing.

Maybe The Timing Is Getting Easier.

It feels like the timing gets better & better. DD was an improvement over HS, which was already better than Red. I'd getting a ton of As & AAs on hard songs (level 5 & 6 on normal & about that on Hyper. I got a AA on TTMO on Another). But then again, I think it might be a combo of the 2, depending on how much you've played.

I thought I was going a little bit crazy thinking the timing was a lot easier. However, my friend and you people admittedly confirmed there's a change in timing. Well, I'm not complaining.

no. everyone is improving and has gotten that much better.

JhOpZzZz · 06-06-2008, 10:16 PM

Yeah... I'm able to AA some songs easily...

By some luck, I FC'd and didn't get a Good in Beginning of Life [N].

please do a little research before you talk like you know what's up

no, the timing is certifiably quite a bit easier. The great window is 2ms wider on each side and the just great window is 2ms wider on each side - in effect the great window is as big but the JG window has been lengthened, and the great window has been similarly lengthened to accommodate. 2ch was in an uproar about it when they figured this out, and one of the hotter issues on VJA right now is figuring out how to split up the scoreboards such that we can accommodate both "new timing" scores and "old timing" scores.

honestly I don't know what Konami is thinking. Between the almost utter lack of really hard songs on Gold (I'm talking Nageki/Mei/Quell level - only Kaiden-exclusive charts are really difficult, I've already AAA'd Golden Cross, etc.) and this, I really don't think this is looking good for competitive IIDX in general. Maybe they're pulling a Sakurai or something. Oh well lol.

Its called sarcasm topher

Toph · 06-07-2008, 08:56 AM

lol ok

I don't know b00geyman that well so I can't tell if he's being serious or fucking around. I really kind of wish he wouldn't mislead people like that though, he sure mislead me :P

I'd like to hear how 2ch "figured out" the 2ms expansion on the timing windows.

DD was the only style that felt significantly more lenient in terms of timing than any previous. Gold feels about the same.

prodygee · 06-08-2008, 04:37 AM

If you ask me, the timing can't get easy. :P It just requires you to press buttons earlier or later.

Or do you mean that you have more time to press buttons to get a PGreat? Since I've been going all out on GOLD, my skills have been improving - while drinking energy drinks, it REALLY helps - and I felt like doing some DANCE SPEED, of course waxing & wanding and man.. I only can say GOLD made me better, I'm getting 8/10 PGreats now. [I just can't AA anothers yet]
