NDS: Why is Ready Steady Go so DAMN HARD

Post by Stark »

I can easily do any of the other Ouendan levels on normal, but I can't finish the damn last one to play on hard. It doesn't help that it's REALLY LONG and much less tolerant than the others, but really it's the extended intro that prevents me just practicing enough to play it. So I need tips etc. :)

Make sure you tap the circles as soon as they intersect the markers.

Good luck! :D

OH IS THAT HOW YOU PLAY LOL :D

All I want is harder versions of the other tracks and the kicking rad dude with an eyepatch. But NOOOO, I've got a 4 minute death-level. I've even got all the music on mp3s, but I always mess up the slow bits. Saving the world through mass-empowered cheerleading is awesome, though.

PS, the robot, mouse and ghost levels were really easy. This is just pissing me off. GRR! :)

Uts just now really does recommend paying more attention to the movement of the circles and targets, since they don't always exactly corespond with the beat and tempo of the songs, particularly in slower parts, rather than trying to wing it and getting set on your own beat. It helps you get the hang of it. He's also at the same place you are (final stage, normal).

Yeah, I've noticed the circles don't all shrink at the same rate... but the fast parts are easy, and R-S-G is so much harder than the previous levels it pisses me off. I can only get to the second stage with 25% health left, and I die almost immediately. OH WELL, TOKYO WAS ON FIRE ANYWAY. :)

Planning on getting EBA, or just sticking with the original version?

Oh my EBA is already winging it's way toward me now. :) I don't think it'll be as good, simply due to lacking that Japanese absurdity that makes Ouendan so awesome. But it has afros.

From the people I've heard who got EBA early (apparently some stores broke release date), it's just as awesome as Ouendan, and in some cases, even better.

Ready Steady Go on Normal is more difficult than on Hard, because in Normal, many of the beats are not in sync with the music. You have to train yourself to watch the beats instead of just tapping to the music.
