    While I am 100% on board with this update, my biggest gripe is that chain links don't give vibrational feedback. That vibration is what connects the player to the music and notes. Without that feedback, chain notes simply feel like regular notes that are more annoying to hit properly.

    so you dont need to follow the arc trails but they can be very helpful for the incoming note and which way you would hit them. pretty good if you are planning to do a very dense map and giving a little assistance for the players who cant efficiently sight-read the gameplay.

    It's also good for just very fast maps, players due to their reaction will need to basically move from point to point, which if your move from overhead to both arms outstretched can be very awkward. Arcs telegraph the player to brings there arms down in preperation for the horizontal swing.

    I came late to the vr scene because I couldn't afford it so after a half a year of having my psvr and saving up for some more games I was really excited to get beatsaber since I'd heard so much about it and I am so glad I did. Me and my sister have played with the headset more in the last two weeks than I think we have in the few months we've had it and I'm never looking back, its so much fun. And I'm glad that when I did come in to the game I came in after ost 5 and the first time I tried it with the living tombstones " I want to be a machine " and was pleasantly surprised by the arc notes I just had the biggest smile on my face, the songs on ost 5 are my favourite by far because the arc notes are just endlessly fun. It feels so good to hit them and reach up and down and around following the line that I just can't get enough of it I feel like I'm flying. Best vr game I've ever played and best workout I've gotten in years = ]

    I thought you had to follow the arcs, I am very new to beat saber. And I also didn’t know what chains were or how they worked. Thank you for this explanation!

    I’m excited to try it out whenever I get a virtual reality headset!
