Mapping is like any RPG, except it's purely social:

You level up by talking to people, making maps, getting mods, and getting friends. Your level increases as you make more friends and make more maps, earning experience.


You don't see a level 10 complaining about a level 50 kicking his ass, it's obvious that the level 50 is much more experienced, farmed, and generally played the game much longer. He's earned the ability to kick level 10 ass (this is just an example, of course).

But...I don't see how...level 10's can increase his level.....the only way to increase your level is being friend of mat or bat.....but most of them are hmm "exclusive" for say something...when they pm of any of you guys they got ignored...so them hopes got breaked because is the only way to get his map ranked...but not all the mats and bats...for example : kenezz,kurai,gonzvlo,icebeam,wcx,bliss,etc...these always respond me...but usually have a lot of request...and see some examples of mappers that doesn't have ranked maps and them maps are quite awesome

http://osu.ppy.sh/u/419795 <- i know him/her for almost a year,i really love him/her maps,but none ranked ):

viewtopic.php?t=73388 <- this map is pure awesomeness.nothing else to add.

http://osu.ppy.sh/u/159590 <- gud

http://osu.ppy.sh/u/12barry21 <-two maps ranked...but why only 2? his maps are awesome.

and seriously,when you speed rank a map of kawayi rika or whatever i used to facepalm.being serious her/him maps sucks...usually no rhythym :/ and silenced hithounds to do not notice it,also andrea,wtf andrea your maps now are shit :/...so please be more friendly with the users of this game ;).

also,escuse my bad english :P

This is kind of getting off-topic, if you dont like this feature, then ok we know you dont, but there's no reason to argue about how fast a map gets ranked, how much effort you need for your maps to get ranked, etc in here, please make a thread somewhere else if you really wanna discuss such things

hehe, few of those level 50 guys can beat me by their mapping skill/concept, but they are keen on improving social intercourse, so they level up. Am I playing a Facebook game or Twitter game but not a MUG? or you think talk to others will help the community rather than study on mapping skills

[on topic] still don't support this, from a subjective and general respective
emonite
Not a bad request but it is not really needed.
NatsumeRin
....bump? this thread dead for 3 months.
Honestly i'm interested about what will happen after this feature added.
BeatofIke
This looks interesting. Support?
emergist
I think it's a good idea but not seriously needed.

Might as well stuff a bubble on this since I have something along these lines (albeit less obtrusive) in the back of my mind. Don't expect anything anytime soon.
Why isn't this feature request bubbled anymore?
Skyara
Yeah, good stuff here but if you want to have [nameofmapper]'s map, you go in osudirect and tape [nameofmapper]

And don't say "What if we are not osu supporters ?" for me everyone who wants new features should be.
Mismagius
What happened to the bubble this used to have? Any explanations?

So here's a question: Should subscriptions be separate from friends? For simplicity, I would lean towards having them combined, which would make this feature request a feed of all your friend's maps.

But some people use friends in very different ways, so I'd like to get more opinions.
FRANDOK3
well how about we can have the option to turn on and off or subscribe to certain friends or so or all friends , makes it way more flexible and customizable
ztrot
well personally if the feed worked the same as friends it could get really cluttered very quickly if you are a person that friends others just to know when they are online.
I don't see the harm in trying it out combined at 1st tho see if the flow is over whelming.

Tho personally I would like to only have a select few on my feed. But either or works.
Soaprman
I wouldn't want to have to fill my friends list with a bunch of people I don't know just to subscribe to their maps. I'd rather the subscription list be kept separate. It wouldn't be too much work to add the friends who do map to the subscriptions manually.

Having a box that lets you add multiple subscriptions at once (like on the friends page) would be useful for the initial setup when people are choosing which friends to subscribe to.
NatsumeRin
I'd prefer to keep them separated. I have a huge amount of friends, but that doesn't mean i'm interested in all of their maps. I'd keep a small list like 5 or 10 for the mapper i'm interested if this feature get applied.
Even for the mapper community, friends could be awesome mappers/other mappers/modders/players/simple friends, it's much more than what i want if i'm just aiming for interesting maps.

I wouldn't like to have them together. If we also have some kind of "Subscribers (395)" information on our profile (could be public or not), the friend stuff would mix everything up >:

That's a great way to display new beatmaps in-game.
Soaprman
I'd still want them on-site to be able to look back at later on, but yeah, having that would be useful, and it would be the first time #announce has ever been worth looking at.

Kind of curious about this feature request, actually, since it's been bumped. Are there plans for this or is it held back by a lack of discussion?
mm201
I still want to do it. I just haven't had time for anything lately.
Soaprman
Excellent, good to hear. I mean the want to do it part, not the no time for anything lately part, unless it's because you're doing something better than adding subscribe to a mapper, like shootin' some hoops with your bros.
ztrot
more power to mm201 lets chain him up and force him to code :U jk jk

I've been practically searching for each of my favourite mappers once every week, to see if they've released something. I don't see why this hasn't been implemented yet.

and it's not even implemented yet.

so you should probably waste your sp on other less popular feature requests!

ztrot
this is something that will most likely happen eventually but, I feel it can sit on the back burner without hurting anything
Mira-san
Awesome.

This seems like a good idea. Being able to see new maps by your favourite mapper while showing your respect to them :3
