Anima_90 Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 In two days I reached cool rating only two times in stage 4 and I failed cool mode immediately after. Someone has some helpfull advice to beat it? In cool mode I spammed repeatedly triangle, cross, square and circle together but it doesn't work. @TheMightyImp2 how can you enter in cool mode in only 8 bars? I watched all your videos and read about that scheme but I can't understand your pattern, can you explain me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I can share play it or something? I'd like to help, but can't think of a simpler way of explaining it than previously. The above is two bars of 8 beats, as in 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and i hit a button on 1,2,4,5,7,8 on the first 8 bar, and on 2,3,5,7 on the second 8 bar. To put it another way, tap tap pause tap tap pause tap tap pause tap tap pause tap pause tap pause. Just thought of another thing.. You must have completed the game all the way through once to be allowed to try for cool rating... Have you completed game once already?

But MUTE THE DAMN GAME ENTIRELY when you do it this way. The vibrations are loud as hell and it's far easier with less noise going on to focus on the timing of the vibrations and ignore the visual queue [still pretty hard to ignore the visual queues imo]. But I got it in two tries this way. Now to get cool rating. heh... this worked for me, combined with the xx tt rr ll thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow oversaved the file (the save system in this game is really crappy imo) and have never been able to do it again. So unfinished it will be forever. the rage. Glad it helped you though!

Charizarzar Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Took a few tries but found it easier than finishing on good. Eventually figured that pressing at the last possible moment gave me more luck with getting a good rating. So I mainly just did the same thing but spammed the last button about 2 or 3 more tries to push it to cool. I just went in blindly for the freestyle since I’m not really sure how that works (which is pretty evident in the video lol), just spammed each button maybe 3 or 4 times in a row before switching, and pausing occasionally. Got into the freestyle pretty early on so had to keep it up for about 2 mins. https://youtu.be/DuWk2kD_wjU (sorry, don’t know how to embed on mobile) Glad I only have to listen to that song a couple more times for finishing on easy and finding the secret. I’ll definitely be having chicken tonight... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyImp2 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Just for the fun of it, I just got a cool rating on all songs in one playthrough.. I also make parrappa say stuff he wasn't meant to say. Enjoy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realm722 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 I can't even beat Stage 4 on Normal let alone "Cool" right now... The hell am I doing wrong? Sometimes people recommend hitting late, I double press the buttons at the end and sometimes they give credit and sometimes they take away points. WHAT?

blake__306 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 I think I just pressed random buttons on that stage and I got the cool rating. Trying to play it more ally didn't work for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

realm722 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Welp... I got into the "cool" zone for once in my life today. I maintained it for like a minute and 30 seconds. Then lost it at the last 3 verses. My spirit is close to being broken. I was so close - but now I've done it once I can stumble my way into doing it again. But the time investment...

realm722 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 GOOD LORD I DID IT. MY GOD. I achieved "cool" zone two more times. The 2nd one I choked and gave up like 15 seconds in. The 3rd one was like the first where I maintained it doing different rhythms for 1 minute+ but lost it on the last 2 verses. Then I got it a 4th time towards the end of the 3rd lesson and managed to hold out repeating button cycles from the first lesson of button presses. THANK GOODNESS. This trophy was infuriating and somehow I still like this game despite it driving me insane. Here's my advice to whoever enters this hellhole in the future. Can't promise it'll work for everybody, but it worked for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maurjen Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 is the only difference between cool rating and good is that you cant see the screen what to tap when on cool mode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remainpositive Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 If it helps at all once you're in freestyle you can literally press one button and just find the right rhythm. Once you have that rhythm with that one button just keep going until the song ends. I remember doing stage 5 and getting over 7000 score while just pressing square the whole time.

Midgar777 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 I finally bloody did it haha! The trick I found was to ignore the prompt order and just freestyle to the beat. So if the game wants: T T T - - O - - R1 - - L1 Do something like O O - O O - R1 R1 - T T T L1 As long as the rhythm is there with what you press and it's not just all spammy and offbeat... you might do it :D!

Thank you so much for this information, it really helped me platinum this game and I'm so happy that I never have to play it again haha. For anyone having trouble staying in cool mode, what I did was tap L1 x2, R1 x2, triangle x 2, circle x2, X x2 and square x2, in that order, sometimes alternating until the level ended. Worked everytime for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arron147 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Just got this. Got to lesson 4 with a good rating. On the line that has 5 triangles, followed by a load of circles, i just spammed the respective button and this somehow managed to get me into cool mode. Thankfully, it was the end of the song so i didn't have to keep it up for long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonLackey Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 (edited) Wow, after trying off and on again for a year...I finally did it. The idea of following a specific pattern every time was the right move to get into cool...if you're not that musically inclined, I was just thinking about the opening to Red Hot Chili Pepper's By The Way baseline (which is that kind of syncopated beat previous posters have talked about) Edit: and just got the cool rating for level 5 in own try following the pattern. It works! Edited January 28, 2021 by JonLackey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diogolpaixao Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 (edited) How do i enter cool mode on this? I have got on first try all other stages, but this one its giving me nervous issues ? Any tips? Edited February 2, 2021 by diogolpaixao Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWreckt- Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 In case anybody comes searching for answers in this thread, here's what worked for me after watching videos and scouring the internet for tips: Someone somewhere noted that the timing for the prompts is wrong and you have to "pre-fire" each of your inputs by at least one gray dot. Then, simply hit the star notes with any input used in that same stretch (likewise pre-firing them) and you will gather sufficient points to enter cool mode by the 5th or 6th instance. Additional note: I literally spammed Square as much as I could during the sequence where it is the only input and that's what caused me to enter cool mode. Once in cool mode, just pick 3-4 buttons and keep your inputs at a 4/4 beat, hitting any other inputs on the off beat of each measure (I did this and kept getting enough points to stay in cool mode). Just avoid overspamming, which is difficult to manage (10+ inputs is what I would consider too much). I had something like 2500 points by the end.

Darling Baphomet Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 (edited) God, what an annoying trophy. I've read a bunch of tips, so let me try to summarize what worked for me since this thread is a bit of a mess: Turn off sound, turn on vibration, this is important. You can use the visual guide as a base but keep in mind it's pretty much worthless in this level. The actual visual input things are completely worthless, but the stars seem to represent beats. You want to feel the beat, then keep it going in your head. You need to match the beat inputs while also adding a bit more for cool - e.g. for the first one, as was mentioned in the thread, for x x x o r1 l1, you actually want to go more like xx xx x oo r1r1 l1; there's full beat notes and then in-between beat notes, so try to get both of them. If you can match the existing notes + add a few more each line, you'll get cool fairly easily - in my final run, I got cool, fell out of cool, then managed to get cool again during lesson 4 and keep it up for the last few lines.
