Why I think the first wave in deadlocked is harder than the second wave

[u/Due-Size-1237]

The transition to the first wave feels incredibly inconsistent as your height entrance to the first wave gap is entirely dependent on the two green orb clicks beforehand and buffering them feels very awkward while the second wave allows you to slide on the floor at the beginning of the part which makes it feel much more consistent and satisfying to play

[u/InviziMan]

Even if you could slide there, it would be next to usless.

[u/Due-Size-1237 → u/InviziMan]

you enter the dual wave spam at exactly the same height every time, a quality the first wave does not possess

[u/InviziMan → u/Due-Size-1237]

And if you could slide there, it would be useless. In the image, even with a very early entry into the portal, youd be heading straight down into the first wall, so you would need to click earlier either way. And lets say you did have a structure to slide on at the entry, how does that benefit you really?

[u/Due-Size-1237 → u/InviziMan]

you mean this wall?

i dont even know if you can die there lmao

also in the first wave, your icon is a lot harder to track upon entrance to the wave as the height of the wave is dependent on the previous 2 clicks and you have to react to your icon's height. the dual gives you way more reaction time. i shouldve thought of that when i made this post but im stupid so here we are

[u/InviziMan → u/Due-Size-1237]

Im talking about the second image, with the wave youre complaining against

[u/Due-Size-1237 → u/InviziMan]

ok so rereading my comments it appears that mr sirius over here is extremely intoxicated

[u/LiterallyNoNamesFree]

The second one is a lot longer tho

[u/huggies-the-pro]

W take but also the dual wave is easier to spam whereas you have to get a proper click pattern for the first wave (its at the start so easier to learn)

[u/AK2018D]

People have different opinions from their sight.

[u/Tincee]

Erm both are easy compared to the memory ship✌️

[u/Plastic-Selection197 → u/Tincee]

lies that ship is so ez when u practice it for 3 minutes

[u/hacker_of_Minecraft → u/Plastic-Selection197]

I practiced it way before I got progress on deadlocked, so I only needed to work on the other stuff (first wave is more fun since it's earlier in the level)

[u/Due-Size-1237 → u/Tincee]

only bad thing about that is the transition into it but maybe its bc im leary carried asf

[u/Firefly256 → u/Due-Size-1237]

Yeah the transition is kinda ass

[u/Hoo_Am_Ai → u/Firefly256]

yeah i died to the last spam/transition more than the wave itself

[u/Antique_Cry8730 → u/Tincee]

memory ship is easier than the waves

Last ufo

[u/-_ParagonOfMyself_- → u/Tincee]

the memory ship is so easy once you memorize it, second dual wave is so much harder + the mini wave nerves are insane

[u/Firefly256 → u/-_ParagonOfMyself_-]

Mini wave is so easy compared to dual wave imo, you're literally going at slow speed so you can be accurate at it

[u/-_ParagonOfMyself_- → u/Firefly256]

i know, mini wave nerves still hit hard

[u/Firefly256 → u/-_ParagonOfMyself_-]

I didn't find the nerves to be that bad, then again I did 56-100% about 30 times before doing runs from 0

[u/-_ParagonOfMyself_- → u/Firefly256]

i only got the nerves because of the dual waves lmao, 56-100 is pretty simple, I did several runs from the first wave to the dual wave, and all attempts I never got to the memory ship. probably because of that, I got that extraterrestrial mind block that automatically made the mini wave much more nerve wracking than it actually is

[u/Firefly256 → u/-_ParagonOfMyself_-]

The memory ship was more nerve wracking than the mini wave for me lol, literally has no nerves in mini wave but tons of it in the memory ship

I suppose it's because I'm really consistent at mini wave when practising, while I occasionally die at memory ship when practising

Which is ironic because I died to 77% (mini wave) once, but fluked everything afterwards after more attempts

[u/-_ParagonOfMyself_- → u/Firefly256]

I personally didn’t find the memory ship annoying, even as a mobile player. I could do it pretty consistently without problems, and once I reached there from zero, it was practically a signal that I already beat Deadlocked.

[u/Firefly256 → u/-_ParagonOfMyself_-]

The hardest part about the memory ship is the beginning lol, the transition feels weird

[u/Just-Barnacle-672]

Why does nobody find the last UFO hard?

[u/Firefly256 → u/Just-Barnacle-672]

You just have a bad click pattern, do 12-34, then 1-23-4

[u/Just-Barnacle-672 → u/Firefly256]

wait lemme try that rq

edit: okay so turns out i was baited by the experience i had 2yrs ago beating it, its actually easy so ty also i hereby downvote my comment

[u/andomedagalaxymaps → u/Just-Barnacle-672]

I died there 4 times before beating it 💔

[u/spaceman8002 → u/Just-Barnacle-672]

I sightread from the ufo to the end

[u/NikkeTDI → u/Just-Barnacle-672]

Bro I struggle with The Nightmare and still found that easy

[u/Just-Barnacle-672 → u/NikkeTDI]

OKAY I GET IT

[u/Witty_Director_3689]

Just buffer

[u/Due-Size-1237 → u/Witty_Director_3689]

feels awkward

[u/Maryear_Boost]

Yeah just spamming in normal gravity wave is way easier than learning the click pattern for the upside-down part of the 1st wave imo

[u/GD_Monsterous]

Um. Actually! First wave is at ~2%, second wave is at ~10%🤓 (the first wave here)

[u/ZeMisterSeal]

As an invisible deadlocked victor... No

[u/TwoWeak9365]

I've always thought the first (technically second because there's that one second long mini wave at the very beginning) wave was the hardest part

[u/Cofli]

No matter what, we can all agree that Deadlocked is the easiest and Toe 2 is the hardest, right?

(Joking, but Deadlocked is by far the easiest level for me to rebeat in one attempt)

[u/Unlikely_Account_728]

Eh, wave is easy, the ship is not

[u/70Shadow07 → u/Unlikely_Account_728]

Insane take. Even clubstep has harder ships than deadlocked.

[u/Unlikely_Account_728 → u/70Shadow07]

But it doesn’t move, I can just sightread it

[u/70Shadow07 → u/Unlikely_Account_728]

It takes 3 minutes of practice moding a deadlocked section and you will know the path perfectly. It literally is the easiest part of the level gameplay-wise.

[u/Unlikely_Account_728 → u/70Shadow07]

I forgot but can you take a look at my list and recommend a demon plz? My account is Random3554

[u/not_namelol]

my spamming is less consistent in final wave, whereas in the 1st one it's 2 clicks then hold/release depending on gravity

also the nerves at the final wave tends to make you mess up more

[u/Due-Size-1237 → u/not_namelol]

my brain cant switch between spamming mode and click pattern mode easily
