[ x ] 5 starred Medium.

Raining Blood was a betch. I think I finished out with 126-128k, but I think 126 is 5 star right?

nice man.

ive learnt to tap the intro whilst qsk was down, and now im working on that 4 star.

with about 10 tries last night, all around 390k.

RAWWWWWWR

so thats me, i can now effeciantly tap ttfaf intro, i tried only co-op with a random but i choked, lol. its actually 50% mental imo.. pressure, 'because its the hardest song' and forgetting about realising really early.

its not that hard.

i mean, you have to have good hand-eye co-ordination, and a fast RING finger.

ALSO.. it helps TONS of you can record. record you tapping it, play it back in vdub frame by frame to see if your going to early, too late, or holding down too long.

anyway heres how i do it:

note: green is held down by left hand index finger.

first section:


R - hold down red from beginning. STRUM and release at the same time. get this release down earlyish so you have a bigger window to get your finger up in time.
Y - ring finger left hand. imo the hardest note to hit. my middle finger sucks.
B - index finger right hand. heres where the fun begins. tap my friend.
R - again, middle finger.
Y - 2nd hardest note. you have to keep it in your mind to release off!

2nd section:

B - index finger on all of these, easiest section to hit. once im here i relax a bit.
O
B
O

Y - here comes the ringer again. i hit the yellow kinda hard, so i remember to release off early.
B - index RH
R - index LH
O - index RH

last section, and the hardest

Y - again with that ring finger. its hard, but its hittable. just remebmer to release. 'TAP' it. dont hold. yes, irony i know.
B - index RH
Y - ring.

and now the hardest, part.. 3 yellos in a row, its hard with that ring but you gotta train it.

now good luck, and any more tips hit me on aim.

if you dont have a cc, ask your bro/sis/friend towatch the screen and see he can see the lights at the bottom light up before the note - means your too fast. or the other way around.

Apple, please make a vid of your hands, I can't seem to tap consistantly on Slow.

[StlcKs]

It really isn't that hard, like apple said. All you have to do is make sure your lifting your fingers off the frets really fast. Tapping them.

Practice, practice, practice.

And Bitten, what's the 4 star cut-off? For TTFAF on expert. My high is 306K right now.....

[G H]

BEAT TTFAF!!!!!!

333K as well! Video will be coming (not of the Intro, I started capping after I realized I wasn't going to fail immediately)


I 1 handed the beginning! I made sure to strum as i was coming off of every non green. So instead of strumming and THEN lifting off, I strummed AS I lifted off.


The rest of the song was easy. I only went into low yellow once. At the "What the?!" part.


EDIT: No vid. It's lagging like a bitch. Screenshot though!





DOUBLE EDIT: I just beat it again in QuickPlay, will upload, 343K on this run.
