- ORIGINAL POST -
I play 1x 100% of the time and I'm looking for people that play 1x the majority of the time. They are few and far between but it's worth a shot.

Laura said she mostly plays on 2x (if Laura is HoneyPunched, which I think she is). Pretty sad to see so few people playing 1x...

I
can
play 1x, and am pretty decent (read: ~20 greats on most 8s) at it. However, I mostly play with whatever speed mods are comfortable for the song I'm playing. That being said, if you want some 1x competition...

Yep, she is. Most of the players around here are AA/*** PA'ers that need the speed mods to time the steps better.
Kevin, didn't I beat you the last time we did 1x no-bar?

Hahaha, yeah, I play on 1x so that I can laugh at Tony about being better than him at something Bemani-related, mostly. And because it's actually sort of challenging in its own way (like playing on 2x used to be before my eyes adjusted.)

Oh, yeah. We should do it again on songs with BPM changes or something. :-P

I generally play 1x, though I'm trying to train myself to play 1.5x...
I can play with higher modifiers on Pump, though. No idea why.
'Course, on DDR I usually play hidden, dark and reverse, whereas on Pump I play with no other modifiers. Hmm.

Why are you trying to play with 1.5x?

Because 1.5x is the next step towards 2x, 3x, and all the other speed mods that the crazy people use.
I'm not that good at DDR in general, but I particularly feel inferior for my inability to read anything whizzing down the screen at six zillion MPH the way everyone else seems to.

A fair amount of us can't read 1x really well, so consider yourself lucky!

I don't see why you would want to read those, most people play with speed mods because they can't read 1x, or find it easier at 2x, or 3x. Don't play them just because everyone else does.
Konami designs the steps with 1x in mind and it makes the songs much more fun and original rather than everyone turning every song into Max 300.

Arkaaito's comment is a perfect example of why higher speeds don't necessarily make the game easier -- for people who play 1x, it's simply harder :p
And then shadowXOR's comment is a perfect example of a typical major difference between someone who merely plays to enjoy and one who plays to get good scores.
I'd rather not see this thread degenerate into a speed argument, which is the direction it's heading right now

But it looks like fun...

Well I guess if it looks like fun to you, looks boring to me.

i can read slow speeds but it makes no sense to me if you can just use a speed mod :/

I guess if you prefer everything to be fast then speed mods are for you, but personally I enjoy the slow songs, the fast songs, the medium speed. I like a little bit of everything (variety), I don't see why you would want to speed mod only if you are capable of doing 1x. It takes some of the originality out of the charts, to me.

I love 1x, i play it all the time on ddronline supernova
, good practice ya know...it looks rather fun and challenging to play on 1x, but then when you change your speed mod to 3x after playing 1x for a while, it looks way too fast.

If you don't care much about scoring then x1 is alright.
But if you're, say, trying to quadstar Xuxa expert then you would use x2.5 or x3. Speedmods help accuracy playing.
Also, they help you read songs that have super fast native BPM's. If you did everything at x1, then making the jump from songs at about 170-200 to songs that are over 250 is going to be a lot harder.

Well I've passed Max 300/Sakura so far and all I play is 1x. And I think that if I'm not accurate enough to get good scores on 1x I just need to get better, I don't turn on speed mods as an artificial crutch to inflate my scores.
I'm one of the few purists left.

I think playing 1x on ddr seems some what better, but when i play 1x on itg, its a whole different story... ddr seems easier on 1x, and itg is a lot harder. 1x is really fun though. I want to play someone on 1x. 1x battle!!
