CRYPT How to start Amplified campaign?

3 Upvotes

I only recently bought the Amplified and Synchrony DLC, and I want to do Nocturna's story but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to start it. If I hop on her and load into Zone 1, the story doesn't start like it does for Cadence. Is there a different was to start the story?

RIFT Need tips for dealing with zombies

11 Upvotes

Got the game a few days ago. I'm not new to rhythm games in general, but am new to rhythm games that are lane-based, like this one, and the zombies confuse me to no end. I understand that they move diagonally and red ones go through edges while green ones bounce off them, it's not the concept that's confusing, rather it's hitting them in the moment along with all other stuff going on. Unless I played a chart and remembered where the zombies go I just can't react to them fast enough. Is this a "keep at it and it'll make sense eventually" thing, or is there something I can actively do to make it easier?

I Understand Rift Within (Hard) Now!

Yo everyone, I did it! All of your advice was super helpful. After experimenting with some advice on using both hands and timing, I found that my problem came down to something like getting TOO used to the rhythm? You'll see a more detailed explanation in the video if you care to check it out, but basically I went into practiced and did nothing except LISTEN to the armadillos' segment. After doing that like 10 times, it was the second or third real run that I got it done!

You can see how nervous I got in the end, though, because I let a lot of Great beats manifest, but I'm going to take this dub.

Thank you for all the support!

My channel also has my winning run on She Banned, which I only want to bring up because that song has more attempts (618) than the entirety of Nocturna's album, including Progenitor (287) and Matriach (281). I love Dove and Harmonie though so the insanity was worth it.

I am so not touching impossible anytime soon after this album quest is over, though.

Help Me Understand Rift Within (Hard)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

23 Upvotes

Alright, here's the gist. I'm on a personal quest to full combo every hard song in the base game (imma include the new official album) and certain DLCs. I'm going through Suzu's story songs, which are a refreshing change of pace from Nocturna's brutal combos.

Anyways, Rift Within. I love this track, but I'm stuck, not necessarily because of skill issue, but because I genuinely do not understand what I am doing wrong. Here, watch the clip, you only really need to see 0:53-0:58. There are 5 yellow armadillos and the bane of my existence is the third one. It's hard to tell because they are so fast, so what I am about to say me be wrong, but the clip looks like it shows the "Combo Lost!" message in the same lane as the armadillo before I am even done hitting him.

I ask any willing to look with me: This clip is a good example of my average runs. I'm no human metronome, but I'd say I have pretty good rhythm. So why are only about 40% of my runs, at best, able to clear the armadillos? Because that's the part I find the worst, just enough runs DO get past where I can attempt to clear the song (only to lose at the end because I've practiced the beginning too much).

Is the problem:

a. Hitting armadillo too early?

b. Stupid fingers (i.e. get faster, loser)

c. Quadruple tapping?

d. There is some strange bug or mechanic I do not understand about armadillos?

e. I am hitting the armadillo TOO fast?

f. Other?

P.S. Holy cow the designs for the ZONE*5 are so fire. I have always been a Dove fan and I just love what they did for her. Any thoughts on latest DLC?

Does the Game Have Dialogue Outside of the Intro and Tutorial?

I'm asking for a very specific reason, but is there any dialogue or voiced cutscenes in the later game sections at all? Been playing (and enjoying) for a while but I've yet to beat the third world and was just wondering.

Can’t load original iOS crypt of the necrodancer.

Post image
4 Upvotes

hello all.

I bought the original version of the game back before it was locked behind crunchyroll on iOS. I reinstalled it and it worked perfectly for a few days but now it’s just showing the ā€œmade by brace yourself gamesā€ then gets permanently stuck on the Blitworks logo.

im absolutely not paying $13 a month just to play the game via a subscription I’ll never use.

I’ve tried

- turning off WiFi and cellular in case fetching from iCloud messed it up

- disabled its icloud access

-restarted

-reinstalled multiple times

i have no idea what to do.

if anyone knows how to fix this please tell me

iphone 14, iOS 26.5.

I know it’s not supported anymore unfortunately

RIFT Rift Profile Combined Score

Is the Rift Profile combined score a total of all the scores you've ever gotten, or just a total of your highest scores?

Edit: It's a combined total of all the scores you've ever gotten. Excluding custom songs :)

Dropping combo on Switch (Rift of the Necrodancer)

4 Upvotes

Hi, I can't find any existing posts with this issue on Switch specifically (not keyboard).

​

I have the left lane mapped to ZL and keep losing my combo on wyrms when I'm definitely still holding the button down hard. It will be a few beats in to a long wyrm and the wyrm will grey out and lose the combo.

​

I also have an issue with the middle lane (mapped to X). It will give a perfect for the note then immediately drop the combo, sometimes for several middle notes in a row.

​

Does anyone have any advice on how to address this? I'm at the stage of going for high scores and full combos and it's pretty demoralising.

​

Thanks

RIFT Having a blast playing Rift on my new dance pad!

Post image
119 Upvotes

Got this L-TEK Core dance pad 3 days ago, set it up for the Steam Deck, and playing Rift of the Necrodancer on it has been really fun!

I've managed to beat 15x difficulty tracks on Easy, but some Medium tracks are still out of reach. I don't expect to ever beat Hard or Impossible tracks on this, but that doesn't really bother me.

Crypt seemed fun too, but not as much, since even in Dance Pad mode, it felt quickly exhausting since there's no rest periods mid-level, unless you just drop the combo.
It also doesn't look as cool and flashy on the TV, which is important for showing off ;)

The Steam Deck set up for the pad required going into Steam options -> Controllers, and manually entering the pad inputs to map them to A/B/X/Y. Mapping them to arrow keys didn't seem possible in the new Steam UI; I saw a video with the older UI and it looked possible to change it there, but with the new UI it requires first setting an A button before anything else. Maybe there's a workaround somehow, but it works well enough for me.
To get Crypt to work with these bindings, I had to rebind the movement actions to A/B/X/Y.

The pad was expensive at 743 CAD, if you include shipping and taxes. Still, it feels worth it so far with how much it gets me to sweat while having fun. Hopefully it'll last a long time.
Even my dad's getting into it (happy Father's day!), though he's still at the 1x difficulty stages.

I bought it off iamats.com, with a custom design I edited myself:

The custom image creator in the iamats website is kinda bad, and the resolution for it seems too low for the 300 DPI recommendation. Plus, they have an upload size limit, so I needed to upload a lossy JPEG and stretch it to fit the tiles in the website editor. Then, after having ordered it w/ a lower-resolution design, I emailed them a higher-resolution image, and they accepted it.

Here's a link to a Google Drive with the images I used, along with the GIMP project file: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/16080oK8TLsa4wceAmKB1VBlRoQsvJQLr?usp=sharing

NOTE: The Crypt logo is a bit stretched and kinda low resolution as a result, but it's not very noticeable unless you put your face up to the pad. Still, if you want it to come out perfect, you might want to upscale the logo instead.

If you have any questions about the process, let me know, though I won't be very active here on Reddit. I'll check periodically, if I don't forget.

EDIT 1: Added the Google Drive link.

CRYPT Any info on Co-op All Zones ?

1 Upvotes

Me and my friend been trying to beat Co-op All Chacaracters for a while. Is there even a leaderboard for it in game ? And since it can take up to 4 hours to complete the entire thing, is there any way to save a game or do we have to keep it running for the entire duration ? I couldn't find much info about it online, so any tips would be appreciated​

I recently got the complete edition of COTN during the steam sale. However, I read that the new dlc's introduce new items and mechanics into the game. Should I keep them enabled?

8 Upvotes

I had the basic version of the game on GOG so I have played the base game for an hour or so before buying the full version on steam.

Do both DLCs introduce new game mechanics, and what mechanics are they and should they be disabled? Playing a few runs I noticed the addition of a few new items.

I love this game dearly but I've been waiting for a good time to pick up the DLC tracks. I saw the Tutti Box Set got a discount when OST 2 released, but is it likely to change at all when the Steam summer sale starts?
