Customer Reviews
Sloppy
I love Tap Tap 2, but I just can't find any fun here. The default graphics are a huge step down from the slick interface of #2. The taps slow down weirdly and bunch up toward the end. Viva la Vida had performance problems and got very jerky. The tutorial locked up on my first try. The downloads don't have prices until you try to purchase. The track packs are named poorly to where the top DLC on the app store is useless. I couldn't even find enjoyment in my favorite song from #2: Tap Domination. :'-(
I could go on and on. This release is a disaster. Nice try guys, but you shouldn't have thrown away what worked.
Awesome app
So many awesome features to this app. Quite an improvement from TTR 2. Plus tha Tapulous team is so supportive this platform can only get better
Underwhelming, to say the least
I know it just came out, but there are barely any songs that are free for download, and songs that I loved from TTR2 I have to pay for to get in a bundle. What's with that? Why not have a feature that lets you import the songs you downloaded in TTR2, like how you could import songs from paid Tap Tap games into TTR2. I understand the premise behind the paid bundles, but why would you make me pay for songs that I could play just by quitting the app and opening up the previous iteration of the game? Here's an idea; have the coins that are used for avatars apply to some song bundles, or just individual songs. That's something else that should be addressed, why do I HAVE to buy a bundle when I only want one or two songs? The Killers bundle is a perfect example. The only song in there I know well and like is Mr. Brightside, and I want to be able to purchase that separately from the rest of the bundle. Maybe with a large amount of coins earned or by spending 25 cents or so could purchase a song separate from its respective bundle.
I'm sure the avatars and levels will motivate some people to play more, but they don't do a thing for me. I play this game for the sake of playing it. To have fun and enjoy the music, not to dress up some two dimensional pseudo-Gaia-Online version of me.
The game also runs fairly slowly upon starting a song, with all the new visual features from the menu and all. This is usually remedied by restarting the song with that new "Restart" button in the pause menu; incidentally one thing I thought really needed to be added to TTR2. Another, very small gripe, is how the the edges of the held notes look. They look very cut off at the end of it where the tail feeds onto the visible track.
I've spoken with people in the "Freedom" chat, and they generally seemed to agree with me on this being underwhelming in the ways I mentioned above. I do enjoy the chat feature, though it could do with a little optimizing so it can run smoother. I also like the up-to-date note hit percentage in the corner, as well as the accuracy meter. The 16x multiplier is also a nice addition, and the notes in the songs I've played seem to have the notes much more in sync with the music than in the previous version.
As I paid money for this and some songs in it, I'm going to keep it, and hope that the TTThursdays still have the free featured track (you have no idea how many bands I was introduced to by that!), and that it gets updated to fix some of the problems mentioned above. For the most part, though, I, and many people in the Freedom chat room, am going to stick with TTR2.
Cheers ^^
