Change the colors of perfect/good/average/miss/boo

Arch0wl · 06-3-2008, 08:06 AM

Right now it's difficult to distinguish between perfect/good/average on fast streams or during jumps since they're all on the yellow-green spectrum. Here's my suggestion:

Perfect - Greenish yellow (how it is now)
Good - Purpleish blue
Average - Reddish purple
Miss - Reddish orange
Boo - Light orange (how it is now)

Yeah colors could be better, but I don't think it will be changed until 3rd style.

FYI current colors are,

Perfect - Green
Good - Light Green
Average - Yellow
Miss - Red
Boo - Light Orange

I also think that changing the colors of the grades is a good idea. I think that perfects should be the brightest, and each grade would get gradually darker (although I think boos should come before misses).

If this were going to be implemented, it would be a great time to move/shrink the combo number.

Ye who are experienced at FFR can tell when ye get goods and avs.
I counted up 43 goods on Ketsarku once.

All the admins and Synth will probably argue that it's part of FFR history or some BS like that... they prolly just don't want to code it.

I don't think so at all; I've SDG'ed some pretty hard/fast songs on both FFR and SM. On FFR my goods mostly come from jumps which are at speeds too fast for me to notice when the colors are so similar.

Arch, there is an autofail setting for this problem you're having. I don't think Perfects should be offset as a different color just so you can see them more clearly (particularly on different timings of jumps, since those can go by too fast anyway). The idea of shifting the color as the timing gets worse is a good one in my opinion (that is, it starts at green and as the timing gets worse, the color gets closer to red), and I don't like the idea of Perfects being one color and everything else being some other unrelated color.

Even with non-similar colors i think it's damn hard to find the perfect and the good on one jump. (except if the jump is alone without any rush or something else).
I have BF The Prototype, even i have watch my own video playing this, i didn't found where i get this Good.

But this idea of changing some colors could be nice. Like ffr skins, ffr characters and all. But i don't know if this gonna hapend one day...

I find this very unnecessary. Like Rushy stated, you can determine when you get good/averages/boos whether it's some crazy FGO or not. I understand the "jumps" part but what difference would it make to change the color? None at all. Besides, every so often just look at the pre-total score at the bottom.

well, i had written up this whole post... then the webserver died and wiped my post.

so, i'll just go with... this isn't going to happen.
