Mines in KeyBeat

**stargroup100** · 10-1-2009, 05:09 PM

Don't be alarmed, they haven't been implemented yet.

Before some of you even begin to complain, let me assure you on a few points:

1. Mines will be used effectively, and will most certainly NOT be abused.
2. Most files will not even have mines, and those that do won't use many at all.
3. Mines will only be found on harder levels, as so not to frustrate beginners.
4. You will have the option to turn mines off (but will not record score due to unfairness).
5. There will no longer be a boo system.

Should we implement mines?

Mines are perfect, I never see a problem with them. They can be used to properly accent staccato'd notes or big accents.

**Plan_Bsk81127** · 10-1-2009, 05:12 PM

lol, mines are fun, im not good at them, but they are fun to have, add them.

**Vanilla Mnm** · 10-1-2009, 05:12 PM

Yeah, definitely implement mines. I would suggest making a couple beginners levels with a couple mines just for them to start them. Like me for example, I can't play the harder levels, but I'd still like a couple (Maybe 1-3 levels with mines on them that are lower leveled)

**** no. Mines should stay in singles, not solo. I mean, look at A Lie.

Mines are good in my opinion.

Wineandbread · 10-1-2009, 06:02 PM

I have no problem with mines, given your points.

Of course, you gotta have a boss mine song.

jugglinguy · 10-1-2009, 07:17 PM

To above poster: that defeats everything.

**Patashu** · 10-1-2009, 07:18 PM

Mines are awesome AS LONG as they're distinctive enough from every noteskin you intend on using. For instance, macgravel's spiky mines are perfect for me

btw, properties of mines in SM:
1. mines only trigger if you have the key held down the exact time they fall on; they're not triggered by proximity taps for instance
2. mines block you from hitting a note on the other side of them: for instance if a note has a mine just before it you can't hit the note earlier than the mine is

what patashu said

but i would say an obligatory mines off option be added

**customstuff** · 10-1-2009, 07:28 PM

P.S. I was the one to make the name for this game. (minus the "s")

And... MINES FTW!

I guess...

How would that be possible if the mines are already put into the simfiles?

**Sprite-** · 10-1-2009, 07:31 PM

It's possible.
The way simfiles are made in keybeat are WAYYYY different and much more effective than the way FFR simfiles are made.

leonid · 10-1-2009, 07:32 PM

You implemented MA </3

**MeaCulpa** · 10-1-2009, 07:34 PM

Mines should be a good addition, especially since I know you guys will be stringent with file judging, so any mine abuse will be caught and changed.

What are mines? Do you mean minesweeper? I like minesweeper

**Silver_Brian** · 10-1-2009, 09:32 PM

Mines are pretty meh but if you're sure that they're going to be used effectively then I guess it's ok.

**Patashu** · 10-1-2009, 09:54 PM

are they going to be used effectively?

stargroup is judging

stargroup is anal
