osu! version: 20150101.11 (latest)

There have been changes to the way pp is calculated

This is intended behaviour, as old star rating was messed up and way to 'difficult'
It got a recalculation

but a 5/10 star map can't be a 2 star map now?! that's crazy... i can not differ anymore which map is fun to play and which one is like hell for me -.-'

The new system is an improvement. Even a Cup, which is supposed to be an Easy (around 1 stars normally) had a rating of +4 stars (which normally is something around Hard). This happened because CTB maps were calculated the same way as in standard mode, even though these 2 are totally different mapping styles. There won't be any steps back to the old system. Now the star rating is more accurate as in any other mode.

Of course this affects gameplay in general: Most standard converted maps play easier in CTB than the real mode specified beatmaps, so the star rating is much lower there as well.

Just figure out what the new star ratings mean and it wont feel any different.

indeed i now know that the easiest map i have is 2,0 stars and the hardest map ist ~2,5
before it was easiest 0,5 stars and hardest 7,5 stars

my request to peppy/the developers team: BACK TO THE OLD RATING!

offline-comments from various CTB-players i know:
- CTB went crap with the new star-ratings, i don't play anymore
- lucky me... i don't have internet at all and cannot update
- it is impossible by now to play CTB while having fun

Edit1: i don't think this is "resolved"

How did star rating affect CtB gameplay in any way hm?

Star rating only made sorting out CtB specific/convert diffs sorting easier, it never made any map harder or whatsoever.

gameplay: definition (shortened)
the way to play a game. including ease of use, accessability and fast comprehension of menu/pre-game-stuff

Say what you want but i feel like the new ratings are better and more accurate. Before i could find both maps very challenging and very easy in a range from 5-7 stars, now it is consistently challenging at 4.5 stars and the further down i got the easier it gets.
