DDR Max ? for those who know..

[orangina]

I am back to DDR after taking off for a while and cant remember half the stuff!

Does DDR Max have a NON STOP in WORKOUT MODE ..?


Also I was doing workout mode in DDR Max 2 and all I could get was the beginner with the man doing it with me. I cant recall how to switch the level in WORKOUT mode to a higher difficulty?

Thanks

You're back!! Yay!

As far as I remember, DDRMax doesn't have a nonstop workout mode.

Well thanks A. for the warm welcome!

I got frustrated trying to figure everything out in each (I own all of the DDR games right down to Disney Mix) and gave up doing it.

Anyway today I decided to get back on the ball and just focus on having fun and not try to analyze it. Also I think I may even sell the early ones like konamix and disney and the other because the arrows arent ON as they are with the other ones and then I can just focus on the other 3 I have. (not sure yet)

AND YOU WONT BELIEVE THIS! I gave up the French diet and am now following a different plan that works better.

BTW did you see my second question..

On DDRMAX2..how do I get the workout characters in WORKOUT mode in other words I want a different mode than light..I keep getting beginner level??

Also are there plans for any new DDR mixes?

I did see your second question, but I didn't have the answer at my fingertips. I was hoping someone else would step in and answer it. I'll take a look tonight (hopefully).

I'd make you an offer for Disney mix, but seeing as it's going for $140+ on ebay, I can't really compete with that.

You're off the French Diet? Never thought I'd see the day

As far as new mixes, I don't know if you've seen In The Groove yet, but we're all (well, except SheScreamedClaudio) thrilled with it. Konami has Extreme 2 and Ultramix 3 scheduled for year-end also.

In MAX2 isnt there the stars before confirming workout options for difficulty and you can also turn workout step off?

[orangina]

Yep off the French diet..doing higher protein (note I did NOT say high protein) and lower carb and balancing them.

Hmm what is IN THE GROOVE?

You can find Disney mix for less on Amazon..also DDR freak has a place you can buy and sell (if you want to chance it)..not sure what I am going to do with mine yet.

It's RedOctane/Roxor game's entry into the dancing game genre. Longer songs than DDR, more modifiers, more American/European music as opposed to the J and K pop of DDR/Pump it Up. Konami's suing everyone involved, but for now you can still get the game.

I picked it up tonight thanks to your recommendation. Have not tried it. I sure hope Red Octane GAVE it to you for FREE as thanks for your work moderating the boards!

ooooo "but for now you can still get the game" ....do I sense a big time ebay profit for buying up the game for later resale?

Possibly, but unlikely. Konami isn't stupid. They know that leveraging another company's advertising dollars to get more feet playing dance games at the cost of some competition will work out for the better for them in the long run (via the Skaff Effect). They are seeking an injunction against the sale of the PS2 game, though they didn't extend the initial lawsuit until well after the game's release. My guess is that they'll work out some form of settlement (they may have already, I haven't been following the lawsuit very closely).

I bought the IN THE GROOVE and have to say ..its either to hard for me on one setting or to easy on another.
Also the Flashing Fantastic drives me nuts..Is there a way to get rid of that?
