So I'm stuck at the rain miracle.....I can't seem to be able to do a "DonDonPataDonDonDonDon".....I've tried more than 20 times already (no joke). Please someone upload a savegame after that shitty level. Thanks.
Right now I feel like setting this game on fire....

STUPID FUICKING GAME DEVS!!!! why would they let you advance even if you make so much mistakes (in contrary to every other level before) by pressing X instead of O.
I wasted an hour of my life on that. At least the game was dirt cheap...
Thx for helping me.

Your suppesod to get that stupid cabbage eye from the plant, farmer fah fakakfukopon dude catching the veggies is a pain in the buut.
Can't remember where I got that his cap from.

Heh same here. I mashed the X button and tried it like 20 times before noticing you should press O. It is pretty shitty, that the game never told you, you pressed the wrong button.
Timing and fever are so easy in this. Don't mind the visual help or the patapon chanting. Just count 1234 in your mind all the time and the fever never stops.
Just opened the first castle and got this sweet horn-dude archer. Cost 900 kaching ;__;
I love this game and all but jesus christ the desert stage is insanly hard. Any tips? Fever is always a huge problem for me because the moment you hit fever the patapons scream some insane shit instead of the usual chant and it totally throws my sense of rhythm (assuming that I even have a shred of rhythm sense in me) off-balance.

Truf. I still can't get past the ridiculous desert stage.
for those of you who are having trouble with fever, i suggest you either pay attention to the edge of the screen or keep your own sence of rhythm by tapping your feet or bobbing you head.
If you rely on too much on the patapons' responses, you will have even more troubles in the later stages where they regularly chant irrelevant shits, even before you enter fever mode.

If you're having a lot of trouble here's a tactic. When you get to the hot desert sand (talking sign), do the chacka dance until you hit fever, then do the rain dance. After that you lose fever, get it back by advancing and attacking and immediately do the rain dance again. Repeat. Don't attack or advance in fever, just call the rain and continue. The enemies don't do that much damage in that level, just the sand.
It may be slow and tedius, but if you have a problem maintaining fever this should get you past the level.

I've been stuck on the desert stage for 3 days. I can start the rain up once or twice per attempt, but since they force you to redo it over and over again I can't. It's ridiculous that a game built on rhythm would intentionally try to throw your rhythm off by having your characters scream over the beat.
Stupid.
I'm giving the level ONE MORE chance today. If I don't pass it, I'm going to dump on it and move on to something else. It's insanely hard for such an early level in the game, and I am VERY good at music/rhythm games. This one just won't click with me no matter what I do.
Getting Fever mode going isn't the issue, it's transitioning from the Fever kicking in into making the rain JuJu work. It seems to fail 99% of the time because you can't pick up the beat with those little nutsucks yelling ridiculously.

If you have problems transitioning into fever then you need to tap your feet to keep the rhythm. Also on the desert stage you only need to have the rain going when you approach the scorching part of the desert; the part where the warning sign is. A single usage of the rain juju should be able to get you through that section.

You'll have to either have a sense of rythmn or pay attention to the edge of the screen, because I assure you like lunluqq has said, they're going to say even more insane shit instead of "Pata Pata Pata Pon" that will put you off even more later in the game.
Are you talking about the actual miracle Pon.. Pon.. Pon.. or the X.. XX.. XX.. part?
I always thought the Miracle chant itself was very leniant.
Just got past the desert crossing level there. Took me a couple of attempts to get it down right but seems okay now. I can't seem to transition back to a regular beat after the rain dance is successful, I always lose the fever as soon as the rain starts. Think I'm just missing the first beat after the last 'Pon' chant.
Still loving it however it's the sort of game I can only take in short bursts. Any more than a twenty or thirty minute attempt results in me losing all rhythm and sense of beat. Same thing happened with Ouendan too oddly enough.

I can't decide if counting beats or watching the border works easiest for me. I've had varying levels of success using both methods. Just wish I could sit and watch the li'l guys do their thing though. Some of the action is hilarious. Which is usually when I miss the beat and lose the fever!

Rarepon is just a term the game uses to describe rare (and expensive) variants of Patapons.Thrakier said:
For example, you can mix a simple Alloy and a simple Wood and get a basic Megapon.
But if you mix Magic alloy and Hinoki wood, you will get much more powerful variant of Megapon, which would classify it as rarepon.
Btw, Megapon, probably a pun of Megaphone, because they have those megaphone looking weapons

Yeah, it's mislabeled as "Quit". Don't let that fool you.Jason said:

Nope, that's all staying intact for future use.Justin Dailey said:
thanks
I guess another gripe I have is that the documentation in the game is pretty sketchy. It's not always clear how to do stuff or what they mean when they say something.
Anyway, cross your fingers for me GAF. I'm heading home from work in a few minutes and I'm giving that stupid desert level on last shot. If I can't get by, I'm giving up. I figure 4 days of trying is plenty.
