Hi,

quite often when playing a map with death streams/fast short streams... I find that I don't know whether I am ahead or behind the stream while missing heaps...

I just thought it would be cool to have an a optional meter that tells you how late/early you're hitting hit circles and sliders. (:

i know that this is possible in editor, but do you really have time to keep looking while playing. might just serve as a distracted.

If you're failing a stream, it doesn't really matter.... lol and the distraction factor is why it would be optional... Maybe it could have a toggle like the scoreboard to hide it? or an option in settings to enable/disable? idk.

shouldn't the hitsounds be enough to tell if your hitting too late or too early?

whenever you hit a circle/slider/spin it should make a noise. if you don't hear it then your effects volume must be off or really low

Nonono, i meant how would you go about using them to hear your mistimed hits?

oh right. well each object is mapped to things like the vocals or beat. if you listen carefully, you can tell if the hitsound plays before or after the vocal/beat
it can take some getting used to

Yeah... I guess.... but a meter or someway of telling you would be more convenient. (((:

The future of this request looks bleak, my friend.

Anyway, an early/late meter reminds me of tap tap revenge 4. I didn't really look at it though, I would just gun it all the way through the song. :|

What would your meter look like? A coloured indicator above/below hit circles? Some text on the side of the screen?

If you meant text, how would it be possible to look at death streams and look at the meter at the same time?

I'd rather if hitbursts were removed altogether and instead of hitburst sprites, every time you click on an object, a simple text number would pop up right above it (in the same fashion as a hitburst, except it's just a text overlay) with the ms amount you hit off timing.
In other words seeing a lot of -1 ~ -72 values would tell you you're hitting too early, seeing 1~72 values means you're hitting too late, etc.
Those texts would be simply white text with a black 1px border (or "shadow", whatever you call it, basically an effect for the letters to stand out over bright background) and every time a new number appears the previous one would fade to black slightly more to make only the latest appearing number very clear to read for the case for fast streams.

This is a little different from OP's suggestion but, I believe, it accomplishes what he wanted in the best way.

I fear this would look too much like when you're testing in the editor. Possibly a F3 mode for osu! that they have in Minecraft. That'd be cool to see, "more stats" while playing.

This could work... But I dunno about totally removing hitbursts...

most pro people have done so for the 300 hit-burst.

Maybe the late/early hitbursts would work... and perhaps they could be colour coded or something like the hitbursts are?

also then pro's could still have 300's hidden because well, that's a perfect hit lol
