How many of you play downscroll on FFR?

**iironiic** · 06-17-2011, 03:08 PM

Also explain why.

I play downscroll because at the time when I first started playing FFR, upscroll confused me so much since FFR was my first rhythm game that uses upscroll as the standard setup. I thought it would be easier for me to play downscroll so that I don't have to worry about adapting to a different setup.

I'm really curious to see who plays downscroll too! 8)

Upscroll. I had seen DDR played a few times, and this was my first rhythm game, so it just fit to use Up. I can't play 4-key down.
Guitar Hero, I'm fine with downscroll. Same with 7-key. But not 4.

I'm weird, I know.

I do downscroll. That's why glitches appear on Upscroll.

I play both styles o_o

and I pwn equally

Upscroll = ITG, FFR, SDO

Downscroll = DJ Max, Beatmania, o2Jam

DotKritic · 06-17-2011, 03:33 PM

No. I play upscroll. It's the default and I grew with it that way.

I play downscroll because I started out playing Guitar Hero xD And watching the arrows go up made me motion sick, just like Guitar Hero originally did to me...

**SKG_Scintill** · 06-17-2011, 03:43 PM

Yes, and semi-pettanko

LJRoX · 06-17-2011, 03:44 PM

I guess I can say both.

down scroll on GH, beatmania, o2jam, pop n' music, drummania, guitar freaks, FFR, DDR, SM Solo
upscroll on ffr, SM (SM + Solo), FFR, DDR

**.Gazelle.** · 06-17-2011, 03:44 PM

I play downscroll because of GH3 and upscroll just confused me

Xx{Midnight}xX · 06-17-2011, 03:49 PM

No. Downscroll is unreadable for me and at the time I started getting ok I still played Dizzy.
I also play semi like Scin though XD

DustyFart · 06-17-2011, 04:07 PM

upscroll, i tried downscroll before and it was too hard.

**Sephiroth28** · 06-17-2011, 04:09 PM

No, I can't seem to play that well on downscroll.

**PrawnSkunk** · 06-17-2011, 04:14 PM

even though I play rockband (downscroll), I find it more comfortable playing upscroll..

I guess it's just because I've been playing on upscroll for so long.

ca25nada · 06-17-2011, 04:25 PM

upscroll except for the djmax portable series.
(as for other games that involve downscroll like BMS, I simply flip my screen.)

The reason for that is probably because I played DDR/ITG for a few years before playing rhythm games on the keyboard.

**ChrisReams** · 06-17-2011, 04:29 PM

My gf plays downscroll and she says because that's what she's used to from other music games. It makes perfect sense really. I used to play DJ Max, Guitar Hero, etc, which are all downscroll as well. But when I came to FFR I just got used to the default upscroll setting and stuck with it ever since. Whenever I try downscroll on FFR I seem to hit every note slightly early. I'd like to be good at downscroll but I don't have the patience to relearn 6 years of playing this game.

Really?

That's interesting. Most music games are downscroll by default; FFR being one of the fewer exceptions.

Downscroll cuz bms

**zolaric** · 06-17-2011, 05:57 PM

Upscroll sucks. Too me around six to eight months to switch completely from upscroll to downscroll on StepMania (I wasn't playing constantly since it was depressing of course). ****ing torture I say. Now I can play bms so I'm glad.

**Artic_counter** · 06-17-2011, 06:47 PM

I play downscroll. The reason is when I first saw my brother playing, he was playing downscroll so when I started playing, I was doing the same thing lol.

Tried upscroll too when I was still a beginner but I found it weird. I'm guess I used to things falling. Gravity lol.
