99 - 99 - 97 - Fail -- TTFAF

So I love dragonforce, and always when I hear their songs tap to myself the drum beat and I can always keep up no problem. So I really only play TTFAF on drums Expert+ and come to this problem. When I do practice, I get the following percentages:

Slowest: 99%
Slower: 99%
Slow: 97%
Real Time: Fail

Is there a way to play it faster than slow but slower than full speed? My full speed percentage in practice is around 60-70 but not enough to pass. Anyone know what I can do?

No there is not. Full speed is100% speed and Slow is 83% speed. But on Rock Band, you can practice at speeds at 10% intervals.

I know all of that, im not a noob. I was wondering if there was some sort of hack or cheat that allowed smaller increments.

Unfortunately there is no cheat to unlock smaller increments in practice mode.

However, if you have GH:Metallica, you would of noticed there is quite a handful of Expert+ songs on there. No doubt some on there on various speeds (or full speed) in practice mode are faster than slow on TTFAF but still slow enough that you can keep up. Just practice those songs until you can build up speed/endurance.

If you don't have Metallica or aren't having trouble with endurance/speed, disregard my last paragraph. :P

Sorry, but no. There is no cheat to make charts slower.

Find out what's troubling you in the song. Seeing that you only play TTFaF, try other songs that might improve on your skills

Get the bass pattern down then focus on the hands. Keep up a good speed and don't tense up.

If there are any parts that are slightly slower than another part of another song (Raining Blood), you could then put the part on the other song on slow and it will be between Slow and Full speeds for TTFAF.

Ah I remember something like this used to plague me when I played the
TTFAF intro on guitar. Try using hyperspeed. It helped me a whole lot.

Perhaps you can remake the pattern in the Music Studio, start the BPM at the slow speed (83% of 200, or 166) and slowly increase the BPM after each run until you can get consistent at 180. Then, go play Full Speed. The Music Studio makes a great practice tool in situations like this. It takes awhile to load, but you must put effort in to get results out :P

Thanks everyone for replying. Here's the thing: If i do the main TTFAF rhythm for an extended period of time, I find myself ending up switching the beat from

HHHHHHHH
S S S S

to

HHHHHHHH
S S S S

So i hit the snare on the main beat, rather than the off. I am able to beat raining blood (except for the end) but the main beat in question, here, I can do in RB (but the reason I can do it is because its not doing it for an extended period of time. I am able to do most metallica songs that have that rhythm no problem and I do it slow (TTFAF) and even on 'slow' i still avg 97%.
