can i just say, while i have no idea what's going on, can i say that i think it's funny that this was brought up by someone who hasn't even reached a play count of 500

i suggested "new mod...... ranked/unranked" because i wasn't sure of any of them. u should just choose one :p
Meh, let the community decide? :P

I think you know what I meant by tunnel vision, but in case you didn't...I'm saying how we are all providing good points, but yet the only thing you are providing are "other games are doing it/I can't do it so I'll change it"

Really the only thing we can always say is practice. If you really don't like the game, go to one of the games you reference.

If you knew what I meant by tunnel vision then practice or play different game.
That's literally not the only thing I've been saying. I very much used them as a reference when the repetitive sentence, "It would destroy the game" comes out. Realistically, it is some of the others that are not making valid points, and I keep readdressing them like a fool.

See, Osu! is free and comes with me on my laptop. Any one of the alternatives would mean having to care for a console, additional disc/equipment too. Osu! is more convenient and has way more song choices. I like the game, I really do. I'm SIMPLY requesting a small mod be put in to negate this ONE inconvenience.

Also, I gave a list of like 3 songs I play earlier. Sorry I'm not gonna retype them. ^_^

I really don't understand why you would want to remove a core part of a game this badly (even if it's just a mod). If you have time to make these thread and replies, why not practice osu! so you can handle those drains? With the time you spent on these 2 threads, you could have probably gained another 100 playcounts and your problem might have been solved throughout those plays.

I remember I couldn't beat Insane due to HP drains in my early plays; I just stepped down and played Hard until I had enough skill to move to the next level. You only have this issue temporarily, and a whole new mod is not necessary to prevent it. The drain is part of the design of the map and if you fail because of it, then you didn't have enough skill to beat it. No "I know I can beat this map if the drain wasn't there!" excuse.

The maps which you may be referring to (with the couple of misses making you fail) is most likely the outdated ones when the beatmap ranking system was different. The recent maps do have forgiving HP drain and you can sneeze or scratch your nose in between and still survive.

If you don't want to fail, then use No Fail. You seem to not want to use this mod, but what's the difference between this and your mod if both mod's purpose is to let user survive a map they cannot beat? If you don't get motivation through No Fail, I doubt you get motivation from yours; it's removing the hardest part of survival.

Sorry if anything looks out of order and confusing, I write things weird. :(
I took a break from Osu! to post these threads actually. I was getting... unnerved to put it VERY gently.

Right, I'm stuck in a middle ground where normal doesn't pose as much of a challenge and the hardest part is waiting for the right moment to strike a note, yet hard has too many/frequent notes for me to hit every single one of them. However, if I didn't have additional HP Drain, I would make it through, if only barely.

It's possible. I don't know the dates on my maps or anything. I think of few of them have been updated?

The difference is there is still merit to winning if you can still fail. NoFail is literally NO consequences. Me mod makes the game based absolutely 100% on your own skill, that's it. There is no extra weight dragging your HP bar down, there is no supplemental points income, no time slows, etc.

I guess. Ha. You can say whatever you want. :P I suppose it's kind of funny when I'm competing with people who have spent DAYS (cumulative) on this game, and I've been here like 3 hours. But it's a first impressions vs. a "once you get to know him" kinda mentality. Like, first impression is this guy is a douche. Do you REALLY wanna get to know him? Do you trust your friend enough to take his word that this new guy is really cool? XD

JEEZY CREEZY! I have posted A LOT.
I think I'm done for the... morning?...! O.o


I will end on this note:

My opinion has not swayed. I think this mod would be beneficial, provided there is room in the programming. Ranked/unranked, whatever. Makes literally no difference IF NoFail isn't ranked. If NoFail is ranked, then make HP Drain mod ranked. Easy pie.

Modding HP Drain is just a way to add relaxation to a song. The dropping HP bar makes me nervous and it has directly caused me to fail before. It's not going to ruin the game. People will still enjoy the accomplishments of beating HP Drain, perhaps even me one day. But for now, I'd like a way to ease into a song. Get to know it a bit. Take it out to dinner and find out what it likes. Make sure this relationship is going somewhere.
... I mean what? Take or toss it. The idea is all yours game devs.

Pretty much felt like a troll post at this point. You realize there's like a fuckton of posting in here. Why would I look through it all when there's like almost 0% chance of being it implemented?
BlackStat
Oh wow you guys are still here?

It's quite obvious that the Hp Drain is not going to be touched. The sake of slow parts in a map that will cause you to fail if you miss one beat are there on purpose, it's a well known mapping technique.

Okay, for REAL last post. This is for you, RagingBull in regards to:

Raging Bull wrote:

Man what maps are you even playing?
Try "When You Leave (NumaNuma) (Nightcore Mix)" by Alina Puscau, the Roddie's Hard (-Bakari-) difficulty. To make it even better, turn on SpunOut, the mod that is supposed to complete the spins for you and no others. Now play through the song, this challenge goes to anyone, and tell me that at no point your HP drops beyond your control to keep it up. Ever. That HP is 100% as long as your are swinging that clicker around.

Now it could be the map, it could be the drain, it could just be me in some way I guess I'm not hitting the buttons hard enough. BUT why run the risk of anything? Why not just a mod that fixes this issue? "Because it's not needed." Well this fucking game is not needed by the world, yet here we are all trying to enjoy it. :)
alxnr
You can add a question mark next to it, then.

Well, I have no further comment about this. If you keep practicing, you won't need this mod for most maps.
Still no support from me, but I'm neutral about this.

1. Sure. I'm almost positive I get them off of the ranked sections. I'm not sure I remember all of them or even if they're the right ones, but here it goes: Levels- Avicii, One More Time- Daft Punk, and Heaven- DJ Sammy.
2. It's not the gap. It's the drain > beat. Sometimes the gap seems a little lengthy, but not lengthy enough for the big check/x screen.
3. I don't think so because it's an extra mod. I mean, is Osu! boring because you can just flip on NoFail and go make yourself a sandwich?
1. I played all the difficulties of Levels and I passed. I occassionally miss stuff and got my health to red at some point on insane. That map was designed that way by the mapper. It's the mappers choice whether he wants to drain your HP so badly.
3. Point is, most people use no fail. And here you are, proposing a mod only a few people would use that could be solved with no fail if you didn't have this motivation thingy.

ImmortalChibi wrote:

1. Meh, I'm not looking for a zombie apocalypse level following here. Like one or two people to sit their and say, "Yeah. This mod could be a thing."
2. Yeah, I'm very tenacious. I wouldn't be if I didn't think it was worth it. The way people fight this is idea is the same logic used to say all the mods that make the game easier are stupid... or they Osu! was built upon the principles of HP Drain and a curse upon the family of the man that changed it.
3. I didn't realize there was a version like that. If the coding isn't ridiculously hard, I'll probably give it a tackle and see about those reviews.
4. Ha ha ha, this is really true. And I have a somewhat "picky" taste in music. >____>
1. A mod which will only be used by less than 5% of the community is totally unnecessary.
2. Point is, all mods are being constantly used. Personally, I use all mods except spunout and easy. Also, this mod will only be useful for a small amount of beatmaps. I bet you wouldn't be able to mention a hundred maps that has ridiculously high hp drain rates.
3. Hardest part would be understanding the code.
4. And that's why you limit yourself to songs that you think are 'good', which makes you unaware of how awesome other maps are. There are tons of awesome maps. To be honest, I used to be picky like you. I searched for specific english songs and anime OPs. But I tried downloading and playing all maps by pack starting from pack 281 through the present one. I got used to it, and now osu! made me play visual novels and listen to touhou tracks.

ImmortalChibi wrote:

1. Idk. That's probably true. But like I said, I have an itchy trigger finger. If I wait too long in suspense for the note, I'm just gonna click it way too soon and end up screwing up anyway.
2. This makes sense.
3. My motivation comes from two things: a) I have literally nothing else to do today. b) I REALLY love games and I will straight up throw a bitchfit in my will if I never get to create a game by the time I die. (Figure of speech, but you get the idea that I really want to be a game dev or some part of creating a game).
1. That's where practice comes in.
3. a) HOLY CRAP WE'RE ON THE SAME BOAT MAN b) yeah, I get the point. I also aim to be a game developer. Although it matters to me the most whether a feature is necessary or not, while considering the number of people who will use it, and how the people will react to it. Even if you think a feature is necessary, if more than 80% of the players think it's bad, you shouldn't force it unto them. This is where peppy's statement enters: 'Just create your own game.', or something like that. IMHO there's no point arguing about this but since we're both bored let's just keep at it and hopefully we'll settle at some point :bd

ImmortalChibi wrote:

It would be a beginner type thing, you know? I mean, the tutorial remains there long after you play it, does that make it unnecessary? No. It was necessary as some point for most people.
The tutorial remains there because most users need it. It's easily disposable if you're really irritated about it. I don't think most users need to halt hp drain since they could just play tons of easier maps.

ImmortalChibi wrote:

1. The HP Drain still exists. Playing in a mode where I can't lose is not rewarding at all. In any other mod (aside from the replay one), there is still SOME sense of accomplishment for reaching the end and you have room to know you can improve.
2. The game's popularity actually stemmed from a user's negative attitude, and I was just trying to tell him that he's not helping the game at all.
3. That is my point.
4. Well anything botting is technically a cheat. Having the program complete the spinner for you fits, I'd say.
5. Meh. Nothing better to do! :D
1. It wouldn't be so rewarding to finish a map using a mod you requested for that specific map.
3. And with this request, consider how many people actually want it and compare it with those who think it's unnecessary. Is it a good decision to spend a few hours coding something that most people wouldn't even touch? What every programmer wants is to have their programs be used and enjoyed by a lot of people. No game developer would implement a feature if a lot of his players tell him that it's unnecessary.
4. botting = automation. As long as it comes with a fitting drawback, it's not a cheat. Anyone can still surpass the maximum score you can get with it.

me too, I think it has nothing to do with play count. But it's true that play count helps you get used to the system. Kind of like evolution.

I'll try that map out later.

That was a bit overboard, btw. Let me just tell you that there might be at most 20 people in this entire community who's having the same issue as you. No one ever, through this game's 5 years of existence, complained about not having the skill to overcome a certain map's HP Drain. This is like blaming your art teacher that you couldn't draw. The biggest issue here is that you don't exert enough effort to gain the skill you're complaining about.
And btw, not everyone is just trying to enjoy this game. A lot of us actually enjoy this game and will continue enjoying it for the next few years.

1. Right, I don't currently have the skill. How could I with such little game time? I'm not claiming to be insta-pro and this game is flawed. It's a small suggestion that I think could be very beneficial and not hurt anybody at all. I mean, if somebody is really upset that someone is playing a song without HP Drain, then they're one hella-egotistical bastard that probably looks down on everyone for using any of the easy mode mods.

2. I used a bomb because you do die... in the song. And I mean, it's very difficult to progress through a part if you only get a split second chance to try it out. If you couldn't tell, I was hesitant to use the metaphor and I also said, "the best way" that I could think of. It's very hard to come up with this situation in real life.

3. I did read that. And yes, I'm sure you're fantastic at Osu!. I applaud you for your skill, indeed. The trouble with most pros though, is that they fail recognize that not everyone has your skill and perhaps they don't even want it. What if someone just wants to do this game for fun? I mean, it's free and has a lot of nifty things in it. The difficulty of an HP Drain however, can get very frustrating and make a song unnecessarily hard.

>I said I don't know. I said I'd bet. It's a gamble. I accept that I very well could be wrong in this. I'd expect someone to be kind enough to just say, "Well actually...." Instead of, "You're a fucking gerbil with downs if you're guessing that about something which you have no knowledge of. Go kill yourself and never come back!"

5. I exaggerate a lot to try and make the mood comical. It is VERY likely someone can misinterpret this and take insult to it. This is not my intention. This was also a gamble. And, as you can tell, I've tried to handle myself very civilized with whatever somebody was saying and try to accurately put forth my ideals.

6. I don't fail to realize that I'm still fresh to the game. I'm basically going off of first impressions at this point. However, I'd like to ask if you've ever played League of Legends? It's a lot of point and click, high velocity game play. Knowing where and when to click can translate smoothly into Osu!. So I give myself SOME, albeit little, credit for this.
Hi, back from afk and didn't read anything else than your reply.

1. Now I understand, so I'll only say the following: If you fail because the map is too hard for you, it's simple: Do not play the said map until you have the level for. Now you can ask; "How to have the level for?" The answer is simple: Practice on easier maps and get better at them first, then once you improved you can play something harder, then get better at it, etc etc.

3. I don't "fail recognize that not everyone has my skill", you just didn't understand what I meant. And also, there are no purposes to play osu! unless you have fun with.

5. No need to exagerate, it only makes me not taking you seriously.

6. I played that game, for about a month and ~2hours a day, enough to have a quick impression of the game; Not really bad, even if I don't really like MOBA games, and the community was absolute garbage.

I'm just gonna repeat myself but; you need to play the game a lot more to understand why your idea is not necessary at all.
osu! doesn't need to be easier to fit your desires, but you have to get better at osu! in order to beat those maps. You can find very easy maps that is almost impossible to fail not purposely. I have this map in mind for example

And again, don't play maps that are too hard for you, because you'll just end up failing them. Play maps you can get B/A/S/SS ranks on. If you can't even get a B, it means the map is so hard it's useless to play it, because you won't learn anything from it. Hell if you pass with a D you were most probably just lucky.

albjaoiehanfk, I came back for the two that actually tried the map I set because of e-mails. Lol.
Congratulations guys, for getting really good scores. Now, the point of the map wasn't that "It's unbeatable." The point was to show you that certain points, your HP will drop regardless of the notes you're hitting. Did you notice this at all? I can hit most if not all the notes, but I do hit sections where I'm not slamming down perfect keys the whole time, so I'm basically being punished for being imperfect. THIS GAME IS HITLER! No, I kid. But really though... perfection can't be the minimum standard.
I don't have your levels of skill, yet. I mean, I logically have the skill to complete the map with even only a C or D if the additional HP Drain didn't bring me down for not scoring 300 on every note. I made it like half-way through the song or something before mid spinner I lost.
Raging Bull
I combo broke. Fml

But I didn't even get close to failing with HR + SO

Whaaaaat the fuuuuuuck!?!?!? Well I through that out there as a possibility way early on that I was awful at picking maps. So obviously I would pick one that has very high standards. -.-

Also, GW if you read this, the song you linked... Easy as all hell on four stars pretty much. But on insane, literally miss two notes and you're done bub. Maybe 3? But I'm not sure if the 3rd one was real, or if I had already failed but the HP bar wasn't quick enough to reach zero before I clicked.

Try the 0.5 stars one, you gonna laugh.

And yeah, the thing is; I don't even notice hpdrain anymore since a long time. You'll also stop looking at hpdrain over time, simply because you'll get better. And once your goal is to get Full Combo on a map, you won't look at hpdrain because it's useless lol. You want FC so you just gonna have to hit every note the most accurately possible. That is even more true when you aim for SS.

Oh my god that's hilarious! XD
But statistically probable. I mean, that same law can be applied on a MUCH larger scale, like to the universe. Scientists conclude that (many years from now), the universe will kind of reset or something and everything will happen again. This is true because there are only a finite number of things we could possibly do on Earth, and they were inevitably be done again.

These laws are similar because of mathematics and statistical probability given a period of time.

Alright alright, I understand what everyone means now by, "You don't even notice it." It's because it shouldn't be a factor when you're actually good at comboing and such. Took me entirely TOO LONG to understand that, but I got there. Slow and steady wins the race, alright guy? >:L

How dare you tell me to try that 1/2 star song. That was unbearably slow. I'm pretty sure I had a birthday or two during that song. I actually wanted to fail just so it would end quicker.
Talk about sneezing between notes? WASH YOUR DAMN CAR between those notes. O.o

Lol well thanks for the advice dude. I mean, this mod CAN still be a thing... but I don't think it would be as useful as I previously thought. (I'm stubborn, but I'll reach a middle-ground. ;P)

You, sir or madam, can calm down. The topic has been resolved. I stand by this mod can be useful for the fresher players or the players that advance more slowly than others. However, it's not as useful as I once thought it would be for someone like myself or the people that have a million songs done already.

I'm sorry, but I had no choice but to lock this request thread as this is going totally off-topic. PM me with a good reason why you would need this thread reopened.

To be honest though, I think this idea is completely unnecessary. After all, HP drain is part of the game anyway. If you can't handle the HP drain, just practice and getting better accuracy to fight the HP drain.

regarding the OP:

Reasons:
1. Slower songs that I like, or songs with slower sections, prove to be quite difficult when the health return from the beats is not enough to keep you alive despite hitting them all.
2. Often times beatmap makers incorrectly gauge the proper setting for HP Drain, thus making the song impossible or nearly so to complete.
3. A lot of the more common and big name rhythm games do amazingly well, despite not having this additional standard difficulty. So sources show, it would not ruin the game.
1. this is a core element of slower songs with high drain and enforces a high accuracy performance on songs that are otherwise uneventful. issues with drain are usually a failure of the modding/mapping process and would not be ameliorated with a new mod, only hastily patched over.

2. see above

3. correlation != causation - a fundamental assertion of your argument here is that hp drain somehow takes something away from the game simply because it is something other games do not do. osu! is not and will not ever be any other rhythm game apart from some elements drawn from its mechanical inspirations (EBA, ouendan, so forth) and hp drain was a principle element for these games, often dramatically exaggerated over what is considered normal and acceptable in current mapping standards

we will not be considering adding such a feature at this time, partly because one exists that replicates similar intended functionality: nofail.
