[Heroic]
00:33:300 (1,3) - Is this intentional?
00:47:223 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4) - these are not squares... or even parallelograms, for that matter
00:42:986 (1) - ?
00:44:196 (3) - ^
01:22:032 (6,7,8) - flip over y axis?
01:24:454 (5,6,7) - flip over x axis?
01:34:442 (6,7,8) - aah clusterfuck
02:09:252 (1) - up more?
03:21:897 (1,2) - AARGH. D:

[MB777]
02:21:666 (5) - new combo?
OD+?

[Normal]
01:29:299 (1,2) - ugly IMO
02:00:477 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - too many whistles in a row.
02:10:163 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - ^

[Legendary]
I'm not good enough at osu to mod this well.

00:42:986 (1,2,3,4,5) - Stacking leniency+
02:02:895 (4,5) - ^

Thanks! Most of the things were changed.

Some changes... that sort of thing...etc.

General:

~ I think the bpm is wrong, and/or it needs multiple offsets (I'm tired though so ignore me for now >_>)
~ Grey is awful in tag (think of the tag players XD)

MB777's Easy:

00:46:921 Kiai looks better starting on a beat like Legendary
01:02:358 The Kiai is starting to look random again, end the spinner here?
01:48:672 (5) - What's this? Confusing for an easy anyway.
01:58:358 (1) - Silent note? Not Easy...
02:10:163 (1) - Wow, this is like a marathon spinner.
02:21:666 (5) - New combo
02:27:417 (1) - This looks lonely, and end it with a finish.
Post 02:28:628 delete all inheriting sections.

Normal:

Resnap everything.
~ The slider velocity might be a little too fast for a normal but w/e.

00:46:921 Kiai looks better starting on a beat like Legendary
01:45:037 Random kiai?
01:45:342 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4) - Not completely symmetrical, you'll notice it ^^

Heroic:

~ Wut, a slower slider velocity than normal... I've never played halo, is this intentional? Or is the difficulty order wrong?

00:27:698 Two inheriting sections at once.
00:46:921 Kiai looks better starting on a beat like Legendary

Legendary:

01:25:967 (1) - That's awfully ugly.
01:27:481 (3) - ^
02:28:624 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12) - I didn't like this, it plays like a 1/8 stack stream.
02:32:861 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12) - ^ But a triple stream.
02:53:974 (1) - Shouldn't this be on a white tick?

Pretty cool maps, might have missed something since tired modding isn't a good idea XD

Anyway ~ Star

Very helpful mod, as always.

01:02:358 The Kiai is starting to look random again, end the spinner here? - Actually, now that I look at it... I would have to change the whole beat if I do... I won't end it there. In fact, I'll just get rid of the Kiai time altogether.
01:48:672 (5) - What's this? Confusing for an easy anyway. - That was a placeholder, I couldn't think of anything else...but fixed...
01:58:358 (1) - Silent note? Not Easy... - How is that NOT easy? :'( I guess I could change it.
02:10:163 (1) - Wow, this is like a marathon spinner. - Or it's an iNiS spinner.
02:21:666 (5) - New combo - Already did, but I don't blame you.
02:27:417 (1) - This looks lonely, and end it with a finish. ^
Post 02:28:628 delete all inheriting sections. - I used Legendary's difficulty and didn't change any of the timing sections, because I am lazy. But fixed.

You deserve a star Shulin... Oh wait...

Here's my mod

Blue = Suggestion Red = Check this

feels good to stretch my modding muscles again.

[MB777's Easy]
00:27:549 (7) - I suggest moving the timing point here forward by 1/4. makes a smoother transition from loud to quiet, rather than it going quiet on the end of the slider.
00:50:554 (1, 4 beginning and end) - finishes?
02:10:163 (1) - Quite a long slider. Maybe consider splitting it up into two or mapping more of this section
- Delete all unused timing sections.

[Normal]
01:41:104 (1) - move the middle slider point right by one. smooths the slider out a little more.
01:46:250 (4) - 1 grid left and down to continue the line thing you have going.
02:14:098 (1) - Consider making this a soft finish
A good map


[Heroic]
00:34:510 (3) - can you round this up like you did the slider before it? I see little sense in this slider being the way it is
01:00:239 (1,2,3,4) - consider quietening the ends of these sliders.
01:48:669 (1) - consider using this layout for these two sliders http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/2320
02:19:846 (1,2,3,4) - This doesn't work to me. I guess you could leave it though
02:39:218 (4) - Put this on 1/3
02:44:061 (4) - ^
03:09:448 (1,2,3) - For some reason these feel better 1/8th earler. Silly American's not using metronomes or something.

[Legendary]
00:46:921 (1) - blatant spacing issue.
yeah... I can't say I see many technical problems. However the end felt incredibly lazy and badly thought out to me. It's up to you whether to change this at all or not.

A good beatmap so far. Keep it up

BPM-Offset:
198.28 - 17881

It's pretty good as is.

A bit late, sorry, but yeah, here's my mod!~

Some suggestions for your map. Of course you don't haveto change them if you don't agree with me

Let's go!!

~All Diffs~
- Easy 1 star - Normal 4 stars... A very big jump.. don't you think?
- Something seems to be wrong with the diffs... Why does [Heroic] have less notes, less HP Drain and less Slider Velocity than [Normal]? 0.0

~MB777's Easy~
- Delete all the timing sections from 02:28:628 to the end.

00:50:554 (1,1) - I personally find the space between these two objects a bit too much for an Easy.
01:12:045 (1) - Ahh rainbow sliders, I love them *-*
01:31:418 (1) - Cool slider too :3
01:46:856 (1,2,3,4) - Whaaat jumps on an Easy?! No way!! D:
02:27:417 (1) - Start this on 02:26:206?

~Normal~
- Consider decreasing Overall Difficulty and Slider Velocity.

00:32:089 (1) - Delete New Combo.
00:51:159 (1) - ^
01:41:104 (1,2,3,4) - (3,4) are a bit hard to see, maybe do a New Combo on (3)?

~Heroic~
- If you're going to make [Normal[ easier keep all as it is but.. maybe increase HP Drain Rate a bit? oxo

00:34:510 (3) - Overlap the end with (1)
01:13:557 (1,2) - Beggining of (1) and end of (2) are a bit offscreen.
01:18:400 (1,2) - ^
02:00:171 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - Looooooooved this!!

~Legendary~
00:46:315 (4,1) - This looks so ugly x_x. Move (1)?
01:03:871 (4) - Overlap the end with (3)
01:35:199 (1) - Move it 1/2 before.
02:01:987 (1,2,3,4,5,6,1,2) - Overlap begginings and ends.
02:12:884 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) - Wow...
02:21:662 (1) - Ahhh I was "missing" your jumps...
02:28:624 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) - This reminds me of Kanburisa... xox
03:09:486 (1,2,3) - Snap them to 1/4?


Cool song, I like it. [Legendary] is a bit overmapped imo but it's okay

*star!*

Bloop.

Thanks guys, your input's appreciated.

Omg I see this now randomly.

I damn love this song <3.

Thanks for have mapped it <3.

I'll give you my star for now.

XD Awesome. Thanks!

Going to actually mod MB's diff a bit this time

These are suggestions, blah blah blah

[MB777]
00:17:881 (1,2) and 00:22:722 (3,4) - The distances are the same, but the time distances aren't. 00:22:722 (3,4) seems like it'd be the same rhythm as the previous ones, but it isn't

00:31:195 (3) - Put the bezier lines (whatever you call them) perpendicular?
00:33:313 (1,2,3,4) - Technically spaced correctly, but move (2,3) down so it's spaced evenly with the slider and not the sliderend, maybe?
00:48:141 (4,5) - not really symmetrical
00:56:916 (1,2,3,4) - I don't know, I don't think slow stacks are really interesting
01:10:231 (2,3,4,5) - ^, make a square or something?
02:08:330 (4,5,6,7) -

[Normal]
increase the OD (It's at Easy levels right now )
Tickrate to 1?
01:05:389 (2,3) - Rotate it around clockwise 30ish degrees or something?
02:14:080 (1) - Normal finish?

[Heroic, Legendary]
Tickrate+?

Legendary
02:17:257 (6) - remove it is better. And add new combo at 02:17:408 (7) -

Thanks, Dusty and xierbaliti. Changes were made.

Hmm.. have someone double check on timing, the note start a bit late in the beginning and a bit early in the end (only by a few ms, so I don't think its too big of a deal...)
hmm Lower all maxed volume normal hitsound section's volume by 2?

MB777's- >: no set distance snap
00:23:327 (4,1) - I say switch new combos, since the clap pace starts on (4)
01:36:557 (4) - ? I don't really get this finish hitsound... and assuming you have it here, shouldn't it be on (5)'s end then?
01:46:846 (1,2,3,4) - already mentioned spacing change/jump for Easy
... mmm I guess he hasn't gotten around to fixing some other stuff yet >:

Normal-
02:05:298 (1) - sounds a bit fast being the only 1/2 slider around this place (and the rest of combo doesn't have hitsounds which is kinda odd since your map has quite a bit)
02:14:074 (1) - okay, why is this a soft finish and 02:04:391 (1) is normal? (normal sounds better used here.. like Heroic)
There are some 1/2 sliders near the end that sound fast for the map's pace, I guess they're just finishers... x.x

Heroic-
00:17:875 (1,2,3) - theses are messed up, right? I'm guessing cuz you increased tick rates (which recalculates slider length)
01:00:239 (1,2,3,4) - sounds really odd with ends silenced....
01:46:234 (4,4) - I don't need to point this out, but I really wanna, partially overlapping slider end like this is ugly ;_;
02:17:100 (4) - erm? why is this partially covered by 3 at all?
02:21:639 (1,2,3,4,5) - sounds odd... your choice though :S
02:42:518 (1) - why use whistle as the finisher? just stick with finish imo
02:47:360 (1) - ^
03:05:819 (3) - mmm have this so the end doesn't touch (5)?
03:22:159 (2) - I like Legendary and Normal's ending better (no whistle on this note~)

Legendary- I dislike fast slider+ low spacing mix T.T
maybe overall diff+1? actually, it doesn't feel like it makes much of a difference on this map..
00:42:089 (1,2,3) - a bit louder please, hard to hit notes you can barely hear
@_@ waah I can't follow this map well at all, the pace changes too much (mainly cuz how I feel about the spacing+slider speed)

>: you did the hitsounds differently per diff
Lots of timing panels seem kinda off, dunno if some parts are supposed to change to normal/soft so soon

Thanks for the mod.

About the hitsounds (and the maps in general), this was actually mapped over quite a long time period; Normal was started before Roxas, and bits and pieces were mapped, unmapped, remapped, etc... The difficulties seem quite different, I guess, because I mapped them at different points in time with different mindsets and attitudes.

Also, because of this, I really don't like some parts of each difficulty (since they were done while my "style" still wasn't too well-established), but lack good ideas for how to replace them.

Random blurb.

MB777'S Easy
02:23:460 (4) - silence this slider's end

Normal
01:02:363 - ...soft sounds for this timing section? Try to set Normal ones like on Heroic...
01:54:411 (7) - move it 2 squares up

Heroic
It's ok!

Legendary
...wow.

I can see traces of awesomeness on this creation.
Maybe a little spacing check can help on Normal and Heroic, but that's enough for a double star ;3

[Timing]
Offset:17 861?

[MB]
00:19:696 (1,2,3,4) - Move these one grid down so (1) doesn't touch the HP bar

[Normal]
02:05:304 (1) - I would prefer this as one 1/1 long slider without any repeats

[Heroic]
00:33:313 (1,2,3,4,1,2,1,2) - Why does this part has x1 BPM when every other part like this in this diff has x0,5?

[Legendary]
The diff i like the least of these 4 (But that's maybe just that i can't beat it )
03:13:390 (1) - Maybe add a mini break here?

Great map and epic song!
*star*

[Timing]

BPM seems fine

Try this offset 17,869 or 17,871 ( lol, someone !summon Zekira )

[Normal]

02:40:999 (2) - Move up 3 times =p

[Heroic]

Perfect! =p

Keep it like this :>

But, the start sounds way to loud, reduce volume to match rest of map please

[Legendary]


Plays nicer for me, but you can keep it like it was =)

02:25:881 (3) - two/three grids down, fix rest/or leave as it is =p

02:43:130 (1) to 02:47:366 (9) - lacks finish's IMO~ try to add some and see how it plays for you.

Good beatmap set

I'll FC this soon enough, + Star

Awesome. Thanks guys! All fixed.

eeemod GO!!!

[MB777]
01:46:834 (1,2,3,4) - this is not very easy -_-;
02:10:134 (1) - you don't think this is too long for a spinner? http://osu.ppy.sh/?p=faq&n=10&c=4

[Normal]
~01:25:046 (inherited timing section) - Normal samplesets here, so it'll be like [Hard]...
~01:45:018 (inherited timing section) - the same ^
~01:35:032 (inherited timing section) - ^
~01:54:550 (inherited timing section - ^
well, you know, look out for these -_-
if you disagree with these sampleset changes, make [Hard]'s consistent with [Normal]'s

[Hard]
good

Awesome, thanks eee!

My message contains too few characters? Wut wut?

Download: Breaking Benjamin - Blow Me Away (Kytoxid) [MB777's Easy].osu

Ta-da! Done.

Timing check!

1. Offset: The current one is okay (17,869).
2. BPM: 198.246 (the current one is too fast).

This sounds way more accurate, at least to me.

Well, everything else is fine... still testing though. So if I find something I will edit this post.

EDIT:

[Normal+]

01:45:018 - ? Isn't this section supposed to have Normal hitsounds?
03:21:548 - I think it would sound better with the Normal sampleset~ (obviously a clap instead of a whistle)

Fixed. Thanks!

Proto-bubbled.

Looks good.
Ranked~

Not a fan of Legendary but Heroic was good, nice job

yay for Breaking Benjamin!

Those people who play my diff.

Please don't play it with Hard Rock mod unless you have steel eyes.

ITS FREAKING EPIC thnx for the map

THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YESH THANKS!

this song is so fucking awesome
