@Arbiter27 Your axe ability is blue because you are in the Ice Zone. And in that zone, there is a passive effect: "Skills don't recover." That's why your skill is blue.
@SwabianWarrior to get :, you need to hold Shift then click "è".
But maybe you can avoid doing it with ShortcutMac (started playing today so I am not sure)
This games sometimes is unbalanced. I'm trying to do all gold medals, but the thing I hate the most is that you have restrictions for the number of plants, but the enemy does NOT have any, so he can deploy as many plants as he wants. I think this is a broken feature. Yes, maybe I was not fast enough to stop them for spreading, but that is just too overpowered.
An advice for all those who are trying to obtain the "There Can Be Only One" badge: you do not actually need to defeat the capitals' town champions, just engage them in a duel. Then, the badge will count them, even if you haven't defeated them.
Continuing:
Last example:
Dark Souls 1 and 2, the PARRY system:
In DS1, the first ds that I played, the parry system was instant: you hit "x", you instantly parry.
In DS2, instead, the game said: "yo, your experience in ds1 means nothing. Now you take your parrying skills in ds1, you throw them in the bin, and then you start learning ds2 parry system: you parry upfront, to make so that, exactly when the foe's sword hits your shield, the sword bounces off."
Now I am quite good at parrying in both games, and in fact I think that I am able to judge both and to know the differences.
That was a pretty long answer XD
@KRMorben Your comparison is not good. I will explain why: being good at playing the guitar is very different from being good with PC rhythm games.
I will make you some examples:
1. I play wii baseball, which is very different from real baseball. Therefore, I do not even dare to judge real baseball players, because I know my comparison would be terrible. This is because Wii and real baseball are very different (you don't hit the ball with a Wii controller during real baseball competitions, do you?). I do not know if you get the point of this example.
What I mean is that your musical qualifications mean NOTHING. You are not playing a real guitar. You are playing with a keyboard. The exact reason why I do not dare to judge a real baseball player is because, to make a comparison, I MUST be good at both, to know the differences even better.
I am not so bad at SCGMD3, but I do not dare to judge your musical skills.
@KRMorben Moreover, I think that the music is very important. If you listen to the song, first of all you will learn it, and therefore get better, because you will know when to press the buttons (I mean, you know to which sound it corresponds, so you kinda gain coordination).
If you remove the volume from a song, you remove everything from it. So it has no sense. If this is SCGMD3 for you, well, stop playing it, because you remove all it's sense.
Oh, I forgot to say a thing: I did not deny you to have opinions because i am simply defending the game, and trying to explain why it is not bad.
@Hidudelastspare You do not have to look at your mistakes. You have to look at a number to the left bottom of the screen, which is like:
Number Of Notes played Correctly / Total Number of notes
The first song has a total of 223 notes if i am not wrong (notes= up, down, left, right, and numbers or letters)
@KRMorben I did not deny you to have opinions. I just disagree, and I tried to be gentle and give you some advice. And I think that you should say this rhythm game sucks only if you have played many rhythm games, for some time, therefore only if you are an expert.
To everybody who "accuses" the game saying it sucks:
I'd like to know how much time you have played it to say that it is bad.
Personally, I have played games like Beatmania, and I think this game is as good as Beatmania and sometimes even more difficult.
Continuing:
2. Try applying the first suggestion to the first song, "In Your Eyes - by Verax". It is the easiest song in the game, and well, if you can get gold there, you've completed the first badge.
@katstone719 You are wrong. I managed to gold the first song, and bronze the second one. The arrows and numbers/letters do have a good hitbox. It is not a broken game. Maybe it lags to you; in that case, I suggest you press the "Got lag? Download!" button in the main menu.
Now, something to everybody: stop saying this game is bad. Just because you are bad at it, it does not mean the game is bad. I put effort in it. I managed to get the BOTD (assuming botds are the same for every player). Please, I suggest you stop complaining and start having this attitude: "I am not good. I need to get good. Please, game, I will put effort in it, but guide me and teach me how to play yourself."
That was more or less my attitude; besides that:
1. Suggestion: When you play a song, play it from the start to the end. With time, you will learn the notes, and the rhythm.
Maybe not great as Badge of the day, but I suggest you do the first song. It is the easiest one. It's hard because it is a "Beatmania" game (as far as I know games like this belong to that type of games).
The last thing I can say is: get good. Put effort in it. You can make it.
I maxed Speed Stat and obtained the "Power Up" medal (my 10th one) but I didn't receive "Ten Desires Badge". I guess it does not count towards the 10 medals?
