Critical~
01:06:69 (4) - Move closer to 3.

The song is funny but the notes are random and all over the place. Sure, you might have timed the notes correctly, but they spew all over the place in no organization and with sliders. If you play EBA or Ouendan, you can see musical symmetry, patterns, shapes, and everything else.

Thankfully this can easily be solved by organizing the hit objects into fun patterns that feel right. If all their timing is correct, then you shouldn't have too much of a problem and this will be an easy and fun fix to do.

[Cleaner System]

Bigger circles pl0x

00:21:19 (3) - sounds better 1/2 later, that's where I hitted it in play
00:26:51 (2) - ^
00:32:01 (2) - ^
00:33:67 (2) - ^
00:38:533 (break) - fix break
00:43:395 (x) - something here plz, ending to a slider or circle
00:45:59 (5) - 2 more reverse arrows
01:11:83 (3) - 1/2 later
01:13:85 (5,6) - ^
01:25:59 (5,6) - ^

if any of these are done, you should re-distance them. They're there cause I had a hard time hitting most 1/2 red notes, ya know.

[Clean System]
00:38:533 (break) - fix break

[Critical Infection]
01:37:982 (break) - fix
02:12:57 (5) - end 1/4 later? I think so
02:38:166 (break) - fix
this one twas kinda fun :D

starred, ya knowz, cause it needz more, duh, and it's pretty cool mapz, ya knowz

Blue = design/minor issues. you do not have to change these if you don't want to
Orange = moderate issues. it would be best if you change these, but you may be able to get away with not changing it
Red = major issues. you need to change these

i'd take away -15ms from your offset

[JAMES2250'S SYSTEM]

00:26:14 (x) - put a beat here?

[CLEAN SYSTEM]

00:21:74 (11,12) - spacing. too far apart

[CRITICAL INFECTION!]

this and Clean Sustem are incredibly similar. i'd suggest toning down Clean system, since it almost seems like you copy-pasted the notes from this diff and moved them around :/.

also, some of the parts in this diff are messy, such as when you overlap a bunch of notes, which happens a lot. maybe spread them out a bit?

and that SB'd BSoD would look better if it came in at the end, after that spinner

00:21:74 (11,12) - spacing. too far apart
01:49:81 (3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12) - not a good place to have wider spacing. i'd keep this at normal spacing
02:13:12 (1,2) - spacing. too close together
02:16:42 (2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - again, not a good spot for wider spacing, imo at least
02:37:34 (1) - add an extra repeat?
02:44:12 (2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) - this would be a good spot for wider spacing. i'd do that with these. i'd also the same with the stream at 02:52:93 too.
03:09:08 (5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12) - not a good spot for wider spacing imo.

this need some more work done to it i think. it isn't bad, just needs more work before rankage. when you've fixed these, call me back and ill remod and such. heres a star for now.

btw, can i make a diff for this?

Thanks for the mod! *gives kudosu*

I fixed all of the yellow stuff and some of the blue things. I'll work on fixing more later. For example, I'll make sure to get cracking on making Clean System more unique!

Now, about that Blue Screen of Death. As you saw, it appears before the second half of Critical Infection. This symbolizes that the "Virus" here has infected the beatmap, which is why the second half is so random. Spacing randomly changes(although not in an unrankable fc killing way), hitsounds become whacked, and strings of notes randomly feature notes on top of each other. As it is such a marking point, I can't move it.

Also, feel free to make a difficulty! If you intend to do an easier difficulty only encompassing half of the song, name it "Doomsday93's System". If you intend to map the entire song, name it "Doomsday93's Infection". Oh, and feel free to do something similar to what I did during the second half :)

re-mod gooooooo!

[JAMES2250'S SYSTEM]

seemed fine enough last mod, so ill leave this

[CLEAN SYSTEM]

00:21:74 (11,12) - spacings still off. the spacing between these should be the same as the spacing between (9) and (10)

[CRITICAL INFECTION!]

pretty much the same gripes as last mod, except the extra spacing parts, since you were going for an Infected system effect there.

i still think Clean System is similar to Critical Infection!. you can keep it that way if you want though

and as for my diff, its still in the works. i've been pretty slow mapping it actually, but it will be done soon, so don't worry :)
heres a sneak peek (so you know what to expect)

Misc. Error Note: The map needs at least 1 spinner for competitive purposes. Without one, the scores are going to be cast in stone.

00:11:46 (8) - I think the new combo should start here instead...
00:14:58 (13) - ^
00:26:33 (2) - ^
00:53:12 (12,13) - For something like this, it can be a (1,2) combo instead.
00:59:72 (3) - A new combo could start here since it is where the lyrics come in.
01:14:40 (10) - Maybe this could be a new combo instead?
01:17:34 (10) - ^
01:27:24 (1) - The new combo feels like it should be removed since the lyrics still continue.

Notes: Nothing major to worry too much about. Though the notes could use some repositioning and reshaping.

00:11:46 (8) - Sounds odd when it hits more than 3 times. Maybe reducing it down a bit and adding a note on 00:11:83 would make it sound better?
00:14:95 (15) - Could start a new combo here...
00:23:21 (1,2) - Not neatly linked together. Also, (1) sounds kinda odd and off.
00:26:14 (1,3) - The stack looks uneven.
00:53:12 (12,13) - This could be a (1,2) combo instead.
00:59:72 (3) - A new combo could start here since it is where the lyrics start.
01:10:91 (1) - Another odd repeating slider.
01:14:40 (10) - Could start a new combo here.
01:17:34 (10) - ^
01:22:66 (1) - Another odd repeating slider here too.
01:25:78 (8) - Maybe you can start a new combo here?
02:05:78 (1,2) - The ends don't link evenly.
02:14:58 (5) - New combo here?
02:38:07 (?) - Feels like an odd place to start a break.
03:04:49 (6) - New combo here?
03:13:30 (6) - ^
03:25:04 (6) - ^

Notes: This one is going to need a lot work. The spacing feels kinda random as if it was randomly snapped. Also some shaping issues with the notes as well.

Overall: The map is okay but needs a lot of work overall. Make sure to have the notes properly distance snapped, double check the shapes, make sure the notes are sync to the flow of the song, etc... Also why does the background go dark for most of the map? Well... i'll just drop my star in then.

This map has not been updated in nearly a month. It IS on my queue. So as to speed up the process, this map will be removed from my queue if the mapper doesn't update the map within the next few days.

(here's a star though cause I really do like this map)

Holy Dump! I almost forgot about this! Thanks for the two messages. I'll blame Geometry and Cross Country for taking my attention away from here. I'll get to updating it ASAP :)

Edit: I've provided an update. Will likely do something bigger soon.

Did something go wrong with the update or storyboard? Because when I downloaded this there's no background image at all, just blackness. The storyboarded blue screen in Critical Infection works though. The weirdest thing is that I can see the background in the editor, but not during actual play.

The only gameplay thing I can point out is that on James' difficulty, the slider at 13:242 I really didn't expect to bounce as much as it did, and you can't read it because small sliders lol. I'd recommend expanding it into two sliders or something of that nature.

I am aware of this blackness, and am currently trying to find a solution. I see the background while editing the beatmap, but not while I'm playing, even while in test mode.

omg fix the blackness plz. This is a great map. I wish I could help. I looked at some stuff, but I really don't know what causes the blackness. I had a similar problem with World Warrior that required removing the "background color transformations" data in the .osu or .osb file, but that didn't work for this map. Hm...

Alright...

Timing seems good.

[James2250's System]

No issues.

[Clean System]

No issues here either.

[Critical Infection!]
00:21:74 (11,12) - Spacing is on purpose? If it is a jump, can it start with a new combo? XD
02:48:34 (3,4) - I can't help but to think something is amiss between these two beats... but that's just me. :P
03:33:67 (4) - A new combo would be nice here.

Not sure if I like the placement of the Kiai Time... but once again, that's your choice as a mapper. Some sliders are a bit ugly too. ;x

[Doomsday93's Infection]
02:54:22 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - Claps sound a bit misplaced here, but once again, this is just my opinion. XD
03:22:66 (4) - Hmm, I am not sure if this is me being retro or whatnot... but I find this slider really hard to read which way is the start/end... especially at how fast this map plays out.

I like the maps a lot, so here is a star for now~
