the biggest flaw i find in pp is that when someone gets a rank #1 with lets say 96% acc DT, and someone else gets 100% DT except for 1 sliderbreak in the middle (leaving him out of top 500) the first person will probably get a ton of pp while the 2nd wont get a single point, therefor still making score an influence on pp.

Score does influence pp, but it does not influence the rankings as much as it did before. If you score higher than other people in maps, you get points. It is no longer "Who played the most maps wins". With the old scoring system, people would rather get a #100 on every ranked map in the game than have #1 on a reasonable amount of them simply because working for the extra 10k score in a map was not worth it compared to doing new maps and getting 30m points and boosting your rank a ton.

If you've already given it time to update, then it might be that you didn't outdo anyone significant? It won't give you a lot of PP, if all the good players are above you in score on the map. I was thinking that this might explain why some people report getting a lot of PP from top 40ing Hards. It is simply easier to top 40 a hard, so you have a better chance of outdoing some really skilled player who didn't care enough to get perfect accuracy on the map, because it was incredibly easy for him. That's just a thought.

So you're basically saying the pp system is ridiculous. You gain more for playing easier what a shame.G0r wrote:

I think the huge contrast between Jordan's hhr score and WW's hhr score might have something to do with it.
If it had been the only hhr score, maybe he'd earn some pp. I'm only speculating.

You're forgetting the fact that other people's playing has an impact on your pp
for example if you have a #4 and someone else takes that #4, you will lose pp

I got like 1-2 pp for all of this together: (Well... solid state squad wasn't surprising though. DT FC with 89% shouldn't be worth anything anyways.)
Well... happened often. Stopped questioning the system after all... some ranks also give incredibly huge boosts of pp. Just play and you will eventually stumble upon them. :>
Xlasher not giving anything is strange though.
In my opinion pp shouldn't take accuracy or mods into account at all. We already got a scoring system which scales with them, so just count scores as they are. There is absolutely no need to double dip modifiers. Especially not with them being hidden from us. Rank 5 shouldn't be worth more than rank 3 for instance, even if rank 5 got a higher accuracy.

That's the major problem with PP. It's completely hidden from us in favor of not being farmed. If it's really all that good at judging skill... then why do we need to hide how it does this to keep people from farming it? It shouldn't be farmable in the first place. Why the cloak and dagger?Tom94 wrote:

^I hadn't thought of it like that before, that's an interesting point. Peppy should be able to release all the information on the pp system if it truly isn't farmable. This would also shut a lot of people up about it's ways (finally).
Edit: I disagree with Tom94's point about accuracy though. A #5 DT HD 98% is < #3 DT HD 97% ... I don't think so. just no. Accuracy > all imo.

I agree on your point that a #5 DT HD 98% is < #3 DT HD 97% is just wrong.
However this is a problem with the scoring system. If PP would take only scores into account, fixing the scoring system would also fix PP in consequence.
Also: What if the 100s were right at the beginning and one didn't want to sacrifice another retry? I often got higher ranks with lower accuracy just because I was too lazy to restart after getting 100s on the first 3 hitcircles due to wrong guessing the first beat with HD.
In those cases I still would value the 97% run more.
Hey guys I'm #10 or #11, that should be enough proof that this system takes accuracy into account a bit too much
This system has some major problems.
look at the top 5 of the pp-ranking:
White Wolf- understandable
Cookiezi - ok aswell
SilviA- that's about right
Rucker- this is also right
Sette- Who the fuck even is he?
I mean... yeah, Sette isn't bad, but there are many players that are much better than him. He is just one of many random japanese pros. If you look down the ranks you will see many of these odd placings (one of my favourites is Hatsune Miku as #30 with guys like KRZY o Tom94 behind him). And beyond maybe rank 1000 the system basically says nothing or atleast not more than the old one. I for example can beat many people that are ranked way higher than me (up to rank 4000? no problem for me!), but I also got my ass whooped by some random 13-25kers (they were asians though
)
So the conclusion that this system really has some major problems is not that unrealistic. If you now take into account that some maps give ridiculously high amount of pp (He's a Pirate for example, or Angel with a Shotgun on easy, I got for a no mod SS on that map 1 pp, considering some Hards with DT didn't give anything to me that's pretty high) and that most of the ranks that mediocre players achieve don't even count towards the pp ( fcs on easier insanes for example are out of the rankingspectrum) then it is really fucked up.
to fix the problems with differ the mediocre players atleast halfway correct, all ranks should be counted. and to fix those ridiculous "I fc things that are hard, got good ranks, no pp for it, played one easy map, got tons of pp" issue, we need to know the actual pp formula
tl;dr: lunatic conspiracy theories all the way \o/

@Tom94, Yeah... no, if you don't want to "risk" an increase in playcount then imo the person who does should get the credit. It's not like playcount means anything sadly (because of the years of spunout).
@Tanzklaue, iirc Peppy said something along the lines of >pp is designed for higher ranked players. From what I've seen personally the lower ranks ie. where you are are not accurate at all. Also, you shouldn't accuse people of not being worth their rank until peppy has fully disclosed all details pertaining to the pp ranking system.

Don't get me wrong please. I don't care about playcount at all (and this example wasn't directed at people who do either. They don't deserve a better rank, just as you said). Glad SpunOut doesn't work anymore btw. ^^YodaSnipe wrote:

It's just annoying to try to properly hit the first circle with HD on a map with silent intro and no countdown. I don't want to bother to ESC->retry 10 times for not getting a few 100 in the beginning if it just decreases my score by mere ~1000. This is very annoying, especially with bugged timing calculation.
(e.g. this map: http://osu.ppy.sh/s/21124)
Yeah I hate that. However, despite my hatred for the ->retry 10 times to get those 300s, I still feel like it's the person who bothers to do so who should get the credit.Tom94 wrote:

I wouldn't be surprised if the system reevaluates you after every play, so if you score badly enough, then I could imagine you losing PP. Maybe it's a matter of averaging out. I agree that it's too complex to really worry about.
how does this work on new maps? let's say I get a #3 rank with DTHD when the map barely has 500 plays, and then I still hold #3 after it reaches 20k playcounts, does it generate pp for me even though I got my score way back when the map was fresh or do I have to beat my own score to get the extra pp?wiki wrote:

I think that there definitely has to be made adjustment at either the difficulty calculation or the scaling of accuracy. Until now I didn't really feel like the system was off by much, sure it was off often but this is just ridiculous.
It can't be that this #1 grants me ZERO PP... srsly, zero. AR11, 270 BPM, the only DT fc. wtf?
And while this doesn't benefit anything there are sooo many easy top6 ranks which required no effort earning me 5+ PP (this is much at 6000+).

Maybe you lost some PP from somewhere else and this covered that? No idea really.
The mere fact that PP takes into account how contested a map is, and that 90% of the players play for the /song/ and not for the /map/, means that PP rewards you not for your skill in getting good plays on hard difficulty settings but rather for your ability to do whatever everybody else does, only a little better. That's why easy plays give +pp while hard plays don't, because generally speaking, less people play harder maps so they're less contested to begin with.
Also the fact that map you played isn't some japanese touhou song hurts it in that aspect too... considering what the majority of the playerbase likes. holy shit that DT how did you get the streams right
If everybody else went ahead and played that map, your PP would go up drastically for that #1, because most players wouldn't be able to come close to that play; but since the song isn't popular it's not going to happen.

At my PP level only a loss of a #1 spot really recreases my PP by more than 1. The step between #1 and #2 is way bigger than #2 to #3 and to on. That's what I realized while observing closely. And I didn't lose a #1 in those 30 minutes. Also I don't have any good ranks older than 6 months which could diminish because I am a rather new player.lolcubes wrote:

I am 99% sure that this indeed rewarded less than 1 pp sadly. :/
@ Aqo's post:
Yep, this is true so much. Just as another example. While the hard #1 I mentioned before earned me 0 pp, a #1 rank @ Leia which is a very popular map earned me ~20 pp. This is SOOOO much, even though the rank required way less effort.
Imho instead of taking the popularity into account so much I would prefer a stronger weighting of actual map difficulty.
Yeah I think popularity is taken into account a little too much.Tom94 wrote:

So then we'd have to debate about which maps are considered difficult and it would require a full reset of a system that's already out of the beta phase.
I don't know if popularity is taken that much, some #3/#4 places on really old maps gave me pp sometimes .w. this calculating is just strange.
Because old maps have a lot of plays on them, since they've existed for a long time.Jordan wrote:

Imagine a top500 player played a random [Hard] map when he just started playing 2 years ago, and had an average score on it, two years ago, and he never bothered fixing it because he doesn't care for that map now obviously.
Then today, you play that old [Hard] map, and get a better rank then him. Then PP system will be like "omg look you did better than that other very-high-pp player, so you're probably very very good!" and then you get a ton of PP for a random old easy map. Some players already spotted some maps like that and posted them on the forums, usually it's maps with songs that are obviously very popular, and you basically get a ton of PP for free from them.
Is the map contention calculated for the 3 play modes in the same way in a standard map ? Cause this should be wrong : playcount and retries are really differents in the same map between the play modes (example a basic stream map insanly easy in ctb and insanly hard in standard)
so now fcs give 9% more pp. what the heck? making the gap between high acc but one miss and low acc but no miss even bigger now lol.
And this is wrong because?
I just noticed several players leaped 30-40 pp without any plays for it. Thoughts on this?

Not missed, you can just get a 100 on a slider without losing your combo and that makes it, technically, not an FC, since you don't get to see the Perfect icon on the score.

I pretty much disagree with how pp currently works. Clearly the one who has better accuracy plays better than the other one who has higher scores but with worse accuracy.Tanzklaue wrote:

Well, a person who SS's a map but misses doesn't really SS it, right? I do agree that accuracy should be valued highly, and it already is, but since we don't know exact number or how exactly pp works, you can't really assume the thing you said it's true.Tanzklaue wrote:

Also fullcombo is important, the only thing that gives you more is either better accuracy or mods, which is why I think the change is fairly good.
but that is when score actually matters.
in a perfect skill based ranking system the score should not have any bit of influence.

Ranks do? And ranks are based on score, so.
If you have low pp and rank higher than a person who has high pp, you will naturally get a fair amount of pp. How would you determine you ranked higher? By score. No system is perfect, and we don't even know what pp actually counts in it's calculations, thats why we assume so much.

rank is determined by score, score isnt determined by skill.
if you fc a very hard part at the start of the map, but have some random 100s at the end, you will have lower score than someone who competely fails at the start but does the end right.

You misunderstood my point. My point is that you have no perfect way of measuring skill unless it's done on a user per user basis. There are over a million of users and everyone can improve any minute, it's just not possible to evaluate them this way. The only way you could evaluate them somehow is the comparison of ranks, which are a combination accuracy and score (and mods).silmarilen wrote:

Also "you will have lower score than someone who competely fails at the start but does the end right." what do you mean by that, that makes no sense. If you mean low accuracy, then he still played it to the max, where only accuracy or mods can yield him better scores, than someone who did not get a full combo. I thought this was quite logical. Accuracy does matter, but so does full combo. We don't even have pure numbers, we don't know what is the threshold where the accuracy without fc and accuracy with fc meet anyway.
I really see no issue with this.
Everyone has their opinions.
not played for a week, but today i got over 20 pp ~
Nice :3
I'm a decent player who mostly enjoys playing insane songs, but do not often FC them.
The problem I have with PP is that they are far too elite. I have not gained PP in months and only spiked once. I would have to go out of my way to rank up and constantly work on single songs. Plus there is no real good way to search for songs in game that would offer PP. Even adding a "sort by date ranked" option in the filters would be nice.

Scores under top 500 are not counted. And since most insanes got like a trillion FCs...
Which means I'm constantly knocked out of any chance of a rank. I don't mind being the 44000th best player in osu! if my PP is even remotely true, but I would like to be compared like the top players are.
it's not like you have to get high scores only in insane song , you could try instead some hard diffs with mods.Pearlsea wrote:

But that defeats the purpose of having PP. The whole point was letting players play whatever they want and get rated correctly by it, instead of the previous scoring system which forced you to play maps you're not interested in if you wanted to rank high. But if you're forced to S Hards with DT+HD now for pp, instead of getting Bs on Insanes which is generally more fun for you, more difficult, but less rank-rewarding, then what's the point, nothing changed; in fact it got worse. (alternatively, just ignore pp and play for fun. works best)Liutprando wrote:
it's not like you have to get high scores only in insane song , you could try instead some hard diffs with mods.
Keep playing, and one day you will learn to DT/HR Insanes in one try and be on the ranking list every time without even trying :<

I'm sorry, but the one who FC'd has a better score. If the player with good accuracy really COULD FC the map, he would most likely retry until he has FC'd. But in most cases, the accurate player lacks the skills to FC. Random misses happen because of a players lack of skill, so obviously the one who FC's is better in the end.Tanzklaue wrote:
at lolcubes: this is wrong because of accuracy. who is better: the player who got basically a SS but one miss, or a player who only got 95% but a fc? according to the system, the player with the lower acc is better, because he hittet one circle that the other guy randomly missed.
and remember that this is coming from a pretty decent accuracy player, I've had my share of 1x miss SS's, and those scores are just worthless compared to FC's.
For example, I couldn't FC this song when I was enough warmed up to easily SS the 1/8 parts, but always missed randomly somewhere. Those random misses were because of my lack of skill.
Improving my old scores doesn't give any pp, even if they were over top200 and then doing it to #1 ... is this working fine?
So there I was playing a new beatmap when all of a sudden... I LOST 81 PP OUT OF NO WHERE!!!!!!! -____-
I am NOT happy! WHO TOOK THEM!? WAS IT YOU!? HOW ABOUT YOU, LEWA!? NERD RAAAAAGE!!!!!!
K, I'm done. XD

I gained 30pp 
(The calculations were changed today)
(The calculations were changed today)
It's funny, because over night I gained about 200 ranks worth of PP, which I guess is probably like 100 PP? I don't know exactly. Maybe the calculations were adjusted twice today; once up, and then again down.

Correcting old scores still yields a fair amount of pp (if you correct them to SS that is). Unless you already have a really high pp. So far every map that I correct (S -> SS) gives me 2-6 PP, depending on the map.
Oh dang, all these recalculations make it look like I actually still play standard
I'm sorry, but did you mean that the scoring couldn't have been recalculated more than once today, or did you mean that my PP couldn't have changed that much, or did you mean that the PP change couldn't have been a result of recalculation?BlazingFX wrote:

If you are so short with your responses, then you will be hard to understand, you know.
what map give you 2-6pp by correct (S -> SS)?lolcubes wrote:

They should be visible in my recent activity or history. Just keep in mind that my pp is in 4950~ range, could also be a reason.tonyzore wrote:

I did not think there was room for misunderstanding.

Okay 3 days i'm loosing pp and I only cleared top40 insanes (maybe 10-15 a day).
In the other hand I see easy players with more pp than me still gaining pp for their shitty 2 try ranks.
I'm pissed of this system from now i'll just ignore it, trying to play the best i can do is NOT FUN at all. I have no fun with osu! since this system cames out. I'm even thinking in leaving CAT cause this system is just discusting me from playing all maps in the game (and this since it has been released, that's why I wasn't very present for this)
I think there is SO many bad things in system, for example :
- Easy/normal still give pp even if your rank is high AND even if you played another diff harder with a better score.
- Wth is Acc doing here ? Acc is in the score calculation so why the hell Acc have to influence AGAIN the performance ? If this have to be taken in consideration why don't you change the scoring system ? Why the hell the performance have to be evaluated agin by your acc when your score is determined in part by your acc ?
- Why two maps totally randoms from the same style of difficulty dosen't give the same amount of pp for a #1 ? (played likely same amount of time, and even if there's a huge difference why the hell this give from 0 to 30pp ?)
- HD is giving the same bonus as DT in CtB or ? Cause HD (even in std) is THE easy way to get a better score.
- Why the hell I loose pp when I play something really hard for me and gain when I do random shits scores ?
- What the hell is the magic modifier ? a random number wich multiply your gain of pp ?
- Only top #40 should be taken in account when you reach a certain rank, and top10 when you're on top of the list and for god sake ONLY on insane diffs
- Wtf age of record ? Why a score should not be valid when you did it too long ago ?
- I think the map contention is the same for all play mode for standard maps
All of this isn't official ofc but this is the exact feeling I have from this system and I did all my "tests" watching the pp modification the next day so please no : "You just didn't wait enough for the calculation".
I'm now going back to MY old system meaning playing the shit I want to play and f*ck this system. Have a nice day.
inb4 good for you

All that I agree with here is the ignore easier difficulties after a certain level thing. All we need is a beat map difficulty calculator (HINT HINT TOM HURRY UP YOU HORSE ANUS) and then we can have nice things.
@Drafura
Seriously, I hate people like you. Everything you do is complaining about how bad everything is. Why don't you quit osu! and try to develope your own game if osu! doesn't make fun anymore?
Oh, and if rank really is the only think you care about, you may be wrong at this place anyways.
EDIT: By the way, I don't see your pp decreasing "that" much.
