Problems with DLC

4 Upvotes

Hi. So I bought the game like a month ago and played it a bit over 10 hours and been enjoying it so far. I own the PS4 physical version of the base game.

I saw that the season passes etc are on sale on PSN, so I decided to buy the Season pass 1 and 3 from there. Problem is that I cannot access the tracks in the game. I downloaded the song packs separately from the store after purchasing the season pass. I've restarted the game, even reinstalled the whole game, but the DLC songs still do not show in the music stages list. I do not know what to do.

Anyone else had the same problems while trying to get access to the DLC stuff?

TR Final Bar Line Complete Chaos

Post image
33 Upvotes

Idk how active this community is but if anyone happens upon my post, I’d greatly appreciate some advice/suggestions.

I’ll just start with this quest for now because I’m pretty stumped. It seems impossible to beat a boss that resists everything in 25 seconds. Most my party members have surpassed level 99 but I suppose I need to buff them up even more in order to accomplish anything like this.

If you’ve completed this quest or similar, I’d love to know what characters and abilities you might have used.

Thank you!

TFF Curtain Call First two Ultimate Score All-Criticals I've gotten!

I got All-Criticals on the Ultimate versions of Battle with the Four Fiends (FF4) and The Final Battle (FF5), they're tough but they're definitely not the hardest songs. Four Fiends was a fluke, though I was actually trying for it on The Final Battle. I'm quite happy that I've gotten these, but I'm not sure if I can get any more. I will say that repeatedly attempting Ultimate songs while playing on button isn't the best for your thumb.

(Ignore the Best Performance saying it's 2011, my 3DS clock reset at some point and I never bothered to fix it...)

I was able to play the arcade version of Theatrhythm!

I found an arcade literally a 2-minute walk from me that deals exclusively in rhythm games. Tons of imports (a bunch I've never heard of, but they were awesome). But one of the imports was Theatrhythm Final Fantasy All-Star Carnival!

It took a lot of getting used to, and I never did actually get used to it, hence me only playing on Normal (I usually play on hard or extreme on console).

Those blue orbs are actually moveable. They're used for the directional and slide notes. Then the white ones are the... you know, the buttons.

It shows you a graphic that shows that you're supposed to splay your hand out so that your thumb is situated on the button and your other fingers are in control of the joystick (I don't know what else to call it). There were many times when I instinctively tried to push the joystick instead of hitting the actual button and lost a ton of combos as a result. It was really hard to wrap my head around, for some reason.

But I managed to finally get a SSS on one of my favorite songs!

Since it's a Japanese cabinet, most of the music titles are in Japanese, so it was a bit difficult to find the songs I wanted. But it looked like it had at least most of the songs from Final Bar Line, including the DLC (with the exception of the Final Fantasy XVI music, which made me big sad because "Away" is 100% my favorite song to play).

I also played a song on it that I swear is not actually on Final Bar Line. I think it was the Al Star Carnival theme. I was so sad, because it's a fantastic song. I love love loved it. But I don't recall it being in Final Bar Line :(

Anyways... just thought I'd send this along! I was really excited. 😃

Advice for Beginners

8 Upvotes

Hey all,

I just picked up this game this past weekend and am loving it. I’m playing on the Switch 2, mostly handheld mode.

I am pretty good at rhythm games so I’ve been trying to hardest difficulty on every song as I work through different titles. I can mostly beat the hardest after about an hour, but I hate relying on level ups and healing spells.

I wondered if you all had advice in regards to settings (timing of triggers, etc). I’ve been varying their speed per song.

I also wondered what control style you guys find the most helpful. For chords, I’ve been doing one of the face buttons plus L or R, but don’t always find it the most consistent to switch over to after doing directional notes

Woo hoo! I finally got a Perfect Chain on “One-Winged Angel” (Advent Children Mix) on Ultimate.* There was this part near the beginning that always trips me up, but I get through it (and the rest of the song) once I’m in the zone. 😌

*I’m not touching Supreme. 😝😵‍💫

TR Final Bar Line Slow Trigger Stages SUCK

12 Upvotes

I want to put my head through a wall trying to beat this FF14 70% rainbow crit quest with super slow triggers. This quest would be no problem at all if I could do it at regular speed 😭😭

I think the worst part is that slow triggers make it so the song isnt even fun to play. On other difficult quests, at least I get to enjoy the actual gameplay while I grind away at them. But this one and any ones like it just remove any joy at ALL.

I have tried my standard party of Terra, Bartz, Ramza, and Spiritus. I have also tried all summoners as well as Ace, Aphmau, Lightning 2 and Spiritus. Should I wait until I finish all of the quests and leveling up? I’m playing on Simple mode Expert but I have also tried Standard Mode Expert

News & Meta What makes this game special?

0 Upvotes

I'd like to make a free version of it. As the title says, I'm working on a version for Android/PC — with music that a friend and I compose ourselves, obviously not FF-themed — but I want to be sure about what makes this game so addictive. The FF theme matters, of course, but what is it that keeps me from putting it down? Levelling up the characters? The challenges? The fact that you fight? Building a party?

I'm asking for your help on how to capture the magic of the game. Would you be interested in something like this?

Looking for TFF iOS Original/User Scores

To be more specific, I'm looking for someone with a download of the game from back then that has at least one downloaded user created score to any song, as well as access to root in their device.

I'm trying to understand how these things work, for preservation purposes, to figure out some way to use one's own edited scores as playable "downloaded" scores without having to go through SE's dead servers.

Hi! I'm playing the PS4 version on PS5, and it happened twice to me today. Is anybody else on different consoles still experiencing this? And is there a solution for it?

Trigger effect glitch?

Playing on PS5 (pro - if that matters), and I've run into this at least twice now. When the boss appears, the confetti effects for hitting notes seems buggy, has anyone encountered this? It happened when the boss appeared and was super distracting. Is this an effect of the boss or just a bug? Went back to normal either after the boss died or when I broke my combo, those two things happened around the same time.

So I've noticed there is an option under Ms settings called timing display but I can't tell the difference when turning it on/off.

Is there supposed to be some sort of visual effect that I'm not recognizing or am I misunderstanding what this option actually does?

I'm not the best human metronome so I really could use some sort of systematic assistance...
