Sorry first mistake already is in the first lesson, I meant saihate hard mode.

[@TsuZakiYa]

it's ok

[@nashelian8848]

I know Im pretty randomly asking but does anybody know of a good place to watch newly released tv shows online ?

[@immanuelameer8391]

@Nash Elian flixportal :D

[@nashelian8848]

@Immanuel Ameer thank you, I signed up and it seems like a nice service :) I really appreciate it!

[@immanuelameer8391]

@Nash Elian you are welcome :D

[@michaellark1266]

hisokeee: Take breaks after practice, playing the same thing for too long will get your mind blocked. Also hisokeee: (plays the fast part of the Intense Voice of Hatsune Miku for a straight hour)

[@ZaChousenWan]

Taking breaks is good when learning. Once you learn it fully, play it for however long you like.

[@Tallarines_69]

OOF that so Insane, he gets safe in the final or almost the final, he is a real human :')

[@user-xl4re3je4w]

also hisokeee : plays popipo ex ex on tap mode in megamix for 4 hours

[@Hawlo]

This explanation makes me wish they did charts with controllers in mind, haha.

[@charmeleonevolves5553]

Well to be fair it's literally just the game (not originally for ps4 and switch) ported over to ps4 and switch. Not much was changed in the already existing charts But yeah, they could have redesigned the charts to make it better

[@armint8374]

This tutorial is gold, I’ve been playing for 1 year already but still get confused with 360° overlapping notes so knowing which songs to train that is very helpful ^^, and the fat thump with normal notes and multi-notes really helps me to master the perfect in 9, 9.5 or 10☆ which I still only get great or standarts.

[@phylidia3211]

I'm playing Project Diva for 5 years now (I'm a casual player), perfected nearly all songs on Hard but couldn't beat most of the Extreme and Exextreme songs at 9 stars and above, because it's to fast and stressful ^^' (I'm sorry if my english is bad)

[@devyns.2792]

Magnet exex is also good for practice, that’s what I’ve been using!

[@saadarmygreenspring21]

I’ve been playing for 3 year and I get 9 stars. But I need to see what we’ll happen next year :3

[@ItzRainu]

You beat 9.5 - 10*?

[@armint8374]

Rainu The Octoling Some days ago I got a perfect on Jigsaw Puzzle EX so I am happy with my accomplishment ^^

[@aaaaaaabeet2841]

12:18 couldn’t have explained it better 👀

[@aaaaaaabeet2841]

Not the 1st to point it out so I’m contemplating deleting this. Give me like an hour to decide if I should regret this

[@sunk6478]

I don't think you regretted this

[@aaaaaaabeet2841]

🤷‍♂️

[@Staraqore]

Well yo didn’t regret it lol

[@dawsondonnellmusic]

[@djvampire1443]

Not being able to do alternating notes has held me back so much, and finally being able to hit them feels so good!!

[@bokpizza9040]

*hisokeee uploads a new video* Me: clicks as soon as possible because i like project diva is also bad at the game tutorial= very cool ty

[@nabilabdurrahman644]

hisokeee : " This is too fast, and this is too slow " Me : " Fine mean *FINE* "

[@charmeleonevolves5553]

8:59 you will never ever have x here XYBA: Allow me to introduce myself

[@matryoshka2151]

Ga, I'm really grateful for the tutorials! It's just hard when you're explaining them in playstation icons though, I'm not used to them.

[@charmeleonevolves5553]

The ps icons are easier to learn imo The nintendo icons are not as distinct to each other, most notably the x and y looking too similar when they're right next to each other The arrows don't change colors on the inside when they are a multi note, making it harder to tell that you're supposed to hit a multinote, also they look kind of similar to the sliders.

[@gr00vy10]

@@charmeleonevolves5553 mmm I play with arrows but I mostly can tell which ones to press from their position when they aren't colored. Regarding the sliders, I have never confused them with each other. Might just be me though because I've played with arrows since I bought the game.

[@femmeslash]

Oh! I didnt expect tutorials outside of beginner levels, this is dope! Reading multinotes in a chart im trying for the first time can mess me up when it's certain matches right after each other; specifically the ones in roki ex and julianight ex. Thanks for the info as always sensei

[@derpybubblez7746]

Watching you do doubles used to break my brain. Now I know there's nothing to fear!

[@spacespaghetti9562]

thank you so much for explaining the double notes patterns

[@teavu6093]

I wrote down the order of the XYBA format on a long piece of card stock and placed it in front of me. Suddenly multi notes come a lot more naturally to me :D

[@polinadushenkovska3572]

Aaaaaa thank you thank you!!!! really neat seeing people who know what they’re doing using their knowledge to teach beginners to project diva😌💖

[@DigitalStatic]

this video changed my life double notes can't hurt me now thank you

[@annylyn1992]

Omg, thank you so much!!! I've been playing for years and never been able to get good scores on extreme, I'll practice a lot with this. Love you man!

[@dankmemequeen2965]

This is seriously helpful. I’ve been playing hard for a while and starting to get greats to almost excellent on 7.5 and 8’s and I want to do extreme more

[@clarisseaulard9333]

I'm in the same case and Extremes are torture for me because I really can't find a way to spam these buttons 😂😭

[@madisusu13]

the only extreme I can pass is Melt because it's like, 7 and everything I'm good at is like, 7-8

[@aaerynn]

I’ve only gotten a Perfect in “World is Mine” in extreme 😔

[@myshka658]

this is the only homeschooling i’ll ever do 👉😎👉 thank you professor hiso

[@gudetamas]

These videos are actually super helpful I want to introduce someone to the Diva series and I'm sure these tutorials will help him out

[@kaisakelo8942]

Thank you so much for doing this! I've played F2nd and X before, but never FT, so when I bought Megamix I really started having trouble especially with the multi notes and learning to adjust to the holds and macros. Hopefully with these tips I'll be able to slowly get more comfortable with the game and it's mechanics. Maybe soon I'll be able to move from 8☆ songs to something evem more challenging!

[@rror1993]

Thank you so, so much for all of these beginner and intermediate player tips, Hiso! I really, really appreciate all the tid bits of info I can get, especially with the note patterns and doubles, because I am a complete mess when I do them, but at least I get them sometimes! XD Definitely looking forward to more tutorials, especially the advanced player ones :) Practise makes perfect! :)

[@mechanicalagony8570]

I’ve been trying to get some of my friends into playing project diva, but they were always afraid they wouldn’t be able to learn to play it! I’m glad this tutorial exists because, honestly, I wouldn’t know how to explain it to them :’)

[@anichibicore]

i was able to clear jigsaw puzzle thanks to this video so! these really helped! thanks hiso, very cool

[@kate-br5dv]

thank you for doing these, i really appreciate them!!

[@kennyMcCormick602]

thank you for making these guides im new to these quads and whatever can't wait for mom to get me full game in a few months after doing all my school work

[@angelhaerim]

wowie i had no idea about the layout of the doubles,, it makes a heck of a lot of sense ty dude

[@damiibeam]

I now feel like a genius since I instinctively set my macros as quads on the triggers and the triangle+x / square + circle on the bunpers lol. These tutorials are very good by the way hiso! This is my first PD game and I’ve already managed to get 15 hard perfects (including envy catwalk which was quite impressive for me)

[@kitsunefears9623]

thank you so much for making this it is going to help me immensely

[@kaoru9829]

This is so interesting and useful!! i started playing project diva not long ago and im loving it. in most rhythm games i can usually clear the hardest difficulty after a few days of practice. (To be fair i usually play mobile games.) Project diva is really challenging, and the highest i can clear are a few very low level expert songs. These tutorial videos are incredibly helpful, without them I’d be totally lost. Im glad i can enjoy pd to its full potential!

[@Meedup]

Ooo this makes so much more sense now, thanks and I had played the arcade once before but didnt pay attention

[@orkoto6057]

Just happy of having an arcade future tone that I can play whenever I want. Megamix with the pad is cool for training and getting better on the real deal as the patterns are the same :) nice work with the tutorials

[@sakurablossom9084]

Very helpful video I'm currently practicing 9.0 9.5 10 songs I recently cleared Roki with a standard in mega mix you are a great teacher to all project diva players beginners to pros

[@horobinota]

It's amazing how helpful understanding the arcade layout can be. There was a Future Tone cabinet in a local arcade while I was studying in Nagoya that I played the shit out of for five months. By the time I came back to my PS4 I was leagues better at recognizing and doing combos 'cause it's so much easier to visualize the cabinet layout than a controller.

[@AgniButWithChronicBackPain]

Holy crap nice. I mastered Hard recently and started my Extreme journey and triple notes and consecutive double notes have been destroying me. This is gonna help a lot thank you so much mate!❤

[@rinrinringabell]

Well, at least I'm above average in Hiso's eye lmao In all seriousness though, thanks so much for the lessons on multinotes. I've been streaming Future Tone extremes for a while and I've been scared of 9+ star extremes because I could never get the hang of multinotes. I have some more confidence after watching this.

[@DimitriIzman]

Thanks, this makes it easier to read the notes. (Triangle square x circle) I'll remember that

[@lanaranabanana5072]

this vid was so helpful, I can now see how much I have improved! XD

[@sayyoru]

Thanks hiso, great video. It was a struggle to learn how to read these new doubles/triples after playing f2nd even after fcing all extremes in it. Kind of stupid that you're forced to fatfinger some of the patterns but ig it's fun. Feels like playing the game as a beginner again lol.

[@jazon5050]

Didn't have this sort of tutorial for the children of FT we were left to figure out the world ourselves

[@xXartuntaureforyouXx]

this.your spoiling these kids and us hiso

[@valkyrieagainsttheworld]

Thank you for these tutorials! I didn’t get MegaMix but I recently got FT and while I learned muscle memory a little by myself, I do still have a lot of difficulty with macro and double/triple notes (mainly cause in extreme songs, they throw it all in your face) and I think and hope with some practice I can perfect some! (I’m on the road to perfect Ievan Polkka and World Is Mine)

[@jonsilvestro3359]

This video is so super helpful I couldnt beat Sand Planet because of the weird patterns and now I can

[@devyns.2792]

Excited for the advanced tutorial!

[@vladimirpetrov6742]

RUSSIAN! Great tutorial, 10/10! Годнотища! Играю уже не первый год на PS4, без особых проблем прохожу Rolling Girl на ExEx, а все равно узнал для себя кое-что новое. hisokeee - единственный чел, который дает реально дельные советы по игре. В одном из видосов он объяснял, как надо правильно переносить удерживаемые кнопки на макросы R2/L2, освобождая большие пальцы без потери очков. Если хотите лучше узнать игру, слушайте этого чувака. Т.н. "обзорщики" могут много расписывать о 4К и модулях похорошевшей Мику, но вся эта вода никак не поможет вам пройти песню на экстриме. Именно после советов hisokeee мне начали удаваться песни 8.5+.

[@blue_mist39]

I realy like this kind of tutorials to help me to play project diva.

[@ThePhluff]

Thanks for pointing out the positions of the multi-notes and how they're always set how they appear on the arcade machine, that will help a ton. When they're too close to eachother it totally overwhelms me and leaves me fucked sideways without contraception. Even worse, my R3 doesn't click/work so I can't practice as efficiently.

[@diandrakurniawan1223]

I didn't realized about "note pattern" until I watch this videos... thanks for the lessons hisokee... XD

[@kevinbasile197]

1:30 ftr those arent /really/ triplets, theyre semiquavers/16th notes. there just happens to be three of them in some instances. a real triplet would be 3 notes the same length as a quarter note

[@PixieLem0nz]

For the different note quadruplets I just roll my finger in a circle around the buttons. It helps a lot

[@peterle5544]

great video. going to use it practice

[@winterbelle03]

after a few days i can finally do the electric angel segment pretty consistently!

[@brothadrknes4760]

This was nice. Kohai finally got me into playin these an I’ve been tryin to catch up. I’m like 100 hours in an I’m pretty stuck at 9.5s I haven’t passed a single 10 an I can’t pass every 9.5. I didn’t know you could do macros holy

[@Ajia_No_Envy]

The Just right is so satisfying

[@gobackbodies]

Thank you king

[@wolforrexiusthechickengirl7743]

Thanks this really helped!

[@Kiwiiizzz]

Lol

[@PrincessRinsicles]

> is about megamix > uses and talks about triangle-square-X-O everywhere when newcomer megamix players would be using either v or ABXY

[@007Matheus007table]

i don't even play megamix but i watched until the end and actually enjoyed it

[@zhvh]

I was literally gonna ask next stream how to get used to holds since I'm actually trying to get high scores now lol. Well my questions been answered on the first 2 min.

[@sabeszz]

i think my weakest spot is reading multi notes slowly, like i'm comfortable with triangle + circle and triangle + square combo but with anything else my fingers just panic and click something way different. i also suck at spam clicking as well (for example the ending for the disappearance of hatsune miku on hard), i just spam the notes but i always get a bad or a safe. dunno how fast you need to click between them tbh

[@jessiii3947]

This is what we need rn

[@oogabooga1420]

Why is the slowed down version of hm ah yes kind of a bop?

[@ishiyua8731]

Thank you so much for this ;;

[@warnish]

thank you !

[@R3YR3YBEEEEAAAMMM]

Sup, A intermediate diva player here, i wanna say thanks for the tips and i got an another method for 360°s You heard it right, another method What i like to do is press up and left for my alter buttons and press B and A next for the other side Or when its opposite i do this... i press right and down on my alter and X and Y for the other side, this method helped me out on the 360° part on Commitee ex This method may be difficult but if you practice enough, it will be pretty much.. how do it describe it? easy? Yeah, pretty much easy But anyways thank you

[@DigDig_1999]

I was thinking of making a tips video myself and looked here for ideas. I bet this was a nightmare to make :)

[@fishburrito8328]

80 THIS. THIS IS EVERYTHING

[@davidthesnek8012]

Hey hiso! Heres a idea, you should start a discord server and like have one on one teaching type of thing

[@jessiii3947]

That would be awsome

[@orioshiri]

He has a discord server already, but I'm not sure where to find an invite. You can probably ask him on Twitch when he's streaming for an invite

[@pierretrot]

Very very cool ! Now I just need to lean the ABXY parterns

[@Cherucha]

2:48, Ah yes one of my biggest weakness when playing harder songs is I play the spam notes way to fast. It is really hard slowing down and playing to the actual rhythm when your brain see's this huge stream of notes just overlapped.

[@MiausawheKitKat]

I don’t even have a switch, yet I’m here trying how to perfect my notes lol

[@MusicandVG]

THANK YOU

[@spultra2007]

During the horizontal multinotes section he sounds like he’s shipping the notes together and I’ve been thinking about it for a while now-

[@wolfpawzz2960]

Off topic but you'd make a good teacher ^^

[@Oyogitsune]

I have kinda gotten used to the last few seconds in saihate but sometimes I forget the note placement and press the wrong notes I have a great on it 😔

[@flowersandragons]

duuude the fact that you can use bumpers as abxy notes totally went past me, I've been doing my best to get them right by thumbs all this time xD I bet this will make stuff so much easier hahaha

[@charmeleonevolves5553]

yea, its a big help when you have access to quads to instantly increase your score and % and two customizable multinotes for each song.

[@Deadring2]

I know this depends on the TV, but even in handheld mode: what are the lag settings in practice mode supposed to be (if even applicable)? Every time I jump into practice mode to try something the notes are very obviously out of sync whilst being correct during the actual PV chart. I always feel like I'm doing it wrong until I then later on try the actual song and it all starts making sense...

[@Ensuikou]

Not me having learned the hard stuff before the easy stuff and not able to do some of the simple things from the first three lessons, but able to do most of this stuff just fine 🙃

[@evevie3264]

Man I can do knife without the holds but I’m still learning how to combo them like that omg ahhhhh

[@hisokeee]

Yeah they take time to get used to but it's worth it for the massive % and points boost lol

[@LenKagamine55]

I've been playing PD since the PSP games and I also could perfect some songs on extreme but damn Future Tone and Megamix is really hard to master ☹

[@deymars4910]

Any suggestions if I don't have some of the songs dlc so I can't do the practices 😅

[@sukadorrunightcore718]

Is there a playlist for these lessons? Because that would be pretty helpful

[@Der_Deku]

is there any way i can become faster? because that's my only problem i guess practicing fast songs in general would help but maybe there's a specific song that can help with that though that probably depends on my current skill level... i've been playing DIVA for like 3 years and i still can't play some songs because they're too fast :/

[@Kazuhito710]

so where can i submit the test? XD

[@BubbleSoapSinger]

So how often would you recommend that we practice these lessons? I was thinking of doing full practice every other day, but would you rather recommend practicing everyday? And for how long? 🤔

[@hisokeee]

Up to each player, some people have only so much patience for doing repetitive things. Just from my experience I hit a mind block if I practice the same thing too much and it no longer helps me anymore to continue which is why i recommend to take breaks. So go until you get sick of it or it no longer feels like its helping then stop and try somthing else.

[@Mullet345]

Wonder how much difficult things will be shown in the Practice tips for Advanced players.

[@BLfan4life]

But what do I do if my thumbs are too small to fat thumb double notes? I've never been able to do a double note on one side of the controller and I've played Future Tone since it launched in North America

[@bwerrty]

for th overlapping notes ehat do i do if it gets a worng like if yhe scores come like at the right time but since its two different notes i mess up the timing of that also, for double notes i always press one of the notes on the arrow and the other on the normal buttons, and like that all of them are really easy to press but you didnt mention that way of doing it so i mean is it wrong? cuz i have a hard time fat thumbing any of them and i can read them pretty easy like that and i didnt rlly know about the patterns youre talkinga bout

[@TheXander2004]

I do it that way too but fat thumbing is needed if you need to switch between double and single notes quickly. E.g quickly switching between triangle and square + x could be difficult but if you fat thumb one side, you can just alternate between fat thumbing the dpad and single notes on the buttons Or if you have to quickly switch between two multinotes e.g triangle square and x circle, you can just fat thumb on both sides

[@warnish]

bro saved me

[@certifiedcerise1574]

Niceeee :D

[@presley953]

Very cool

[@natsch5839]

my first project diva game was project mirai, and you have to sometimes press the same note twice using the letter buttons and dpad, so ive been trained to do combos by pressing a note with both my right and left hand and it kinda works for me? is this a bad playing technique? lol (i just started playing megamix, never played future tone)

[@qbicc6381]

Im am having difficulties with longer alternating passages. For example lesson 1 in the first video and lesson 6 in this video. First it works, but halfway through my thumbs start to synchornize, breaking the alternating pattern. Will that get better eventually or is there a special way to practice this? Im doing these drills for about a week now, only minor impovements.

[@snowiedesu3558]

i have a question you can try with All project diva's though-?

[@NiNGalaxU2]

How do I hold a button combo while still pressing buttons? For example can I transfer an XA Hold onto the ZR or ZL button or do I just have to set it this way? I'm trying Expert now and it's difficult to get a Hold Bonus I don't get it.

[@lumo2772]

Yaaay A+, BTW are their going to be even harder lessons in the future?

[@hisokeee]

Yeah I'll do one more maybe next week

[@charmeleonevolves5553]

@@hisokeee "maybe" next week unless it already exists and you haven't added it to the playlist...

[@YourLovelyMajesty]

It's so great to have tips from a master but I still can't find practice mode! Did they remove it from the US release?

[@hisokeee]

Song select, press right on dpad

I'm a switch player and havent bought any of the dlcs. Are there alternatives for those songs?

[@bignugget673]

I know this video is a couple years old now, but I'm on lesson 6 and both songs are DLC, which I have none of 😅 do you have substitutes?
