[Rhythm Heaven] - Lockstep 2 (Perfect) (English) 

you're not ready for megamix, DJ yellow.

Bruh

Megamix would like to know your location

true

@@yeremiafrans9425 Yet somehow, Megamix still feels easier to me

Not in perfect challenges, it doesn't.

And it looks better

For some indescribable reason, I perfected Lockstep on my first try in Megamix, even though I made 4-6 mistakes every other time I played it.

I know right.

Same

it actually seems easier than the first one.

Dumb Garden Gnome Agreed - I guess it just gave you less time to think and just tap along automatically?

IMO, this was easier for me than the first one

And then there's space dance, bunny hop, spaceball, karate man, etc where they have less people but the music slaps and the gameplay is equally good.

Agreed

good Rhythm heaven gigamix!

What happens if it's HD?

@@quesadilla_codes its going to be HD cuz even the switches own screen is hd

It would probably be a port of Rhythm Heaven Megamix though.

It’s probably not gonna happen due to satoru Iwata’s death

just gotta git gud

Wrong, I Perfected BOTH Locksteps In 1 Attempt EACH

Rhythm Heaven DS: okay... you were a little early but i guess... Rhythm Tengoku: NONONO YOU PRESSED A BEFORE THE SONG EVEN STARTED U BAD BAD BAD AAAA

@@fuitbythefoot Rhythm Heaven Fever: that was pretty off...eh, im feelin generous have a superb Rhythm Heaven Megamix: DID YOU JUST PRESS a A SINGLE MILLISECOND EARLY?!? DO YOU HAVE A MENTAL DEFICIENCY?!?

From a player who has only played megamix what are y'all talking about getting perfects and not missing is easy

To be fair though, Glee Club was technically the first to introduce a swing beat to the player.

Technically some in rhythm tengoku had swing but really lightly. I believe sneaky spirits is the first swung minigame?

@@tech8222 this one has a HEAVY swing though

I wish they did this before they threw you into Remix 3

Also that they both have alot of people on the screen. Also this came before...

+ReddehWow Not really. The only difference is that the double tap is replaced with the a+b.

***** as a linux user, i agree, but i don't even remember why i chose this profile picture i've had it for like 3 years now

+imthescatguy I have the 3DS version so I'm able to play both of them one after the other on the same device. Trust me, the beat/offbeat switch in Lockstep is quite different from the jumpy bit in Flockstep.

Lockstep - L + F= Flockstep, aka lockstep for babies.

I'm trying to add audio to Silva's high-quality rip rn\ It's ahrddd

The main thing that throws people off about this one is that it's in a swing beat, whereas the original one was in a standard beat. That is, for Lockstep 1, the offbeats are exactly halfway between the onbeats, which is how most songs are like. In Lockstep 2, the offbeats are two-thirds between onbeats. Not only does this mean the timing is different for the offbeats, but you wait for two-thirds of a beat when switching from an onbeat to an offbeat and one-third of a beat switching from an offbeat to an onbeat. Something else I want to point out is that, besides the tempo and the swing beat, Lockstep 2 plays exactly like Lockstep 1. The switches always happen at the same moments proportional to their tempos. P.S. Swing beats are quite devious when they appear in rhythm games, and for that reason, they're very rare. To my knowledge, there is only one other stage in this entire series with a swing beat with inputs on the offbeats, which is the original GBA Rhythm Heaven's Cosmic Dance. (Double Date and Double Date 2 in Rhythm Heaven Fever also run on a swing beat, but the cues are always on onbeats.) And since Dance Dance Revolution is not programmed for triplets (where beats are divided into thirds rather than halves), I have never seen a song with a swing beat in that series.

Overhazard I actually think it seems easier with the swing beat just listening to this. I haven't actually played this though, so what do I know.

AnonUserGuy If you're used to swing beats, it'll be much easier for you than for someone who isn't. I haven't plsayed this either, but I feel that I would've had trouble until I learned it was in a swing beat. I DID play Cosmic Dance in Rhythm Heaven Meagmix though, which was harder than Space Dance but not much harder.

Overhazard I've played the stage now, and I can confirm it is indeed pretty easy.

Huh. I've always found Cosmic Dance way easier than Space Dance.

Ah, yes, someone who actually knows what Mother 3 is. And I agree IMMENSELY

lol

McAwesomeKid 1324 Without the music that wouldn't be a rhythm game *Cough* Quiz Show *Cough*

We don’t want another Quiz Show dude

@@blagelaglaze5776 i liked quiz

Pfffffttt says the guy with the Lockstep 2 as his avatar -jk I love lockstep and 100% agree with you

@@Absquatula Smells like bias lmao But I like Lockstep a lot anyway

Damn barelys

StarGamerJaey Someone actually did that. Look up "The Sweet Lockscape".

But thats the problem with this. Its just a slow downed version. I want more challenge, not go back farther than square one. Its good, but i prefer the first one.

Null_Syndrome.me It's actually on a swing beat, which you'll have to adjust to.

I prefer the first

The slow tempo is meant to be a throw off... but yeah, I love this version

Just noticed that afro, best game in the franchise

Slow tempos are usually considered harder to be steady with.

this one was the easiest one in the whole game to me .-. i got a superb with my eyes closed

Probably they wanted to make the switching of steps harder. The timing makes it so you don't go instantly after a beat since it goes half a beat after a normal beat.

It's not about the tempo, it's about the timing. Lockstep 1 splits each beat in half, but lockstep 2 splits each beat in triplets. So it goes like this: lockstep 1: x-x-x-x-x-x-x-xy-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-yx-x-x... lockstep 2: x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x-y--y--y--y--y--y--y--y--yx--x--x--...

When they go to the dark side, they are so evil.

I can do flock step but when it over and the music and screen fades out I mess up that's why I can't perfect this

Actually, the zoom-out is easy as long as you keep to the rhythm.

Nah... It's pretty easy,and my favorite part! *_-Oh geez am I the only one with a perfect on flockstep ijdqnbwikbfei-_*

Flockstep is really easy if you just focus on 2 things: The rhythm, and the cute birds.

Flockstep is easy, tf you talkin bout

Tepig I got all the superbs on fever and Megamix but not in DS,This game is definitely the hardest Rhythm heaven.

@@starlite5154 I thought rhythm tengoku was hard ;-;

The inspiration for Donk-Donk

And it's -40 degrees

Nice

Lockstep 2 is easier despite it's triplets

When it's -40 degrees out

The song has swing, meaning the spacings between beats are not all the same. The switch from beat to off beat is quicker than the switch from off-beat to beat because of this. Listen to when the conductor goes "un-hah um-hah". that's both beats and off beats, you can hear the swing there.

Cansteam Headcannon HUMHA-HUMHA-HEY!

Jordan Jesus Christ is THAT it? I for the life of me could not figure why I struggled so much the first couple time through.

It's on a shuffle beat. The offbeat is a half-beat longer and the onbeat is a half-beat shorter

Swing

actually the conductor is one of the others

Nate 46 Yes

Yes. The "people" is just one person, J.S. Bach, a famous composer.

And The Dazzles 2 could've been DJ School 2

This is good tho

David Peters nope

David Peters there is a smaller window for the taps and the time you have to tap is slightly off the music

Games are slowly becoming more forgiving

MasacoMike The almost notes count as a hit in LockStep, so technically, it's a perfect.

Lunar Narwhal Oh, okay. I just couldn't forget the time lost perfect on Marchers in Tengoku GBA because of "almost"...

MasacoMike *war flashbacks*

+Lunar Narwhal war..... war never changes

I think A) people are sometimes used to fast mode and B) there is a slightly thinner timing window

its a loooonger way til the end than last time

Agustin Maza Inzunza Pay attention to the timing when you switch from the onbeat to the offbeat, and vice versa.

It's swung. It's effectively in compound rather than simple time.

@@rtg_onefourtwoeightfiveseven Syncopation is one hell of a drug

You have a fancy house then

It's in swing beat, meaning the off beat is technically 2/3 of the way between beats, where the original Lockstep has offbeats halfway between beats.

Triplets

good news!!! i know what swing is now. weird to think i didnt 10 months ago

Alon Moiseyev AND ON A FUCKING SWING BEAT! (Pay attention to the transition from the on-beat to the off-beat.)

SWING

barely count as hit in this game.
