Playcount/Total Hits>Time played
And no, you aren't at your limit. You have to challenge yourself and actually try to improve if you want to get better.
i believe in you

You've played comparatively little in two years compared to what you could have. You should really try more.
You're like a person that goes to the gym for 10 minutes a week and complain that you don't make any progress
Nah, there are people here posting playing for 3 years with 3,000 playcount and 300,000 hits. This guy is more like an hour every two days.buny wrote:

You're being way too generousKheldragar wrote:

You should play more NF and DT on 6 star maps. Will make you better in no time.
If you've played for 2 years I've played for 8 years.
I haven't played for 8 years.

That's more than enough to make some decent progress.Kheldragar wrote:

There are people who hit your total playcount within a month. I think it tells more than any verbal explanation.
At this playcount you're far far from any limits.

He is rank 17k.pandaBee wrote:

Hits > Playcount
OP has 3.6 million hitcount. You would need 120,000~ hits a day everyday to get that. What is that, a 9 hour play day? You could just retry spam after every 10,000 points for many plays to boost up your playcount and still hardly get any hits yet it looks to some people like you played a lot. Playcount means less.
Are you saying that the experience from playing World's End or any other longer map without restarting would be equal to or less than a few retries of a tv sized song?
I was actually talking about the gym, dawg. You can get real swole in 1 hour every other day.Kheldragar wrote:

Even hitcount isn't that accurate if you compare a stream player to a jump player. One gets five times the hitcount in the same amount of time playing.
But which is more accurate, total plays that you can spam every 10-15 seconds on a map for or hits where it could only be slightly skewed if you play LOTS and lots of streams? (And even then you still have to play compared to fast retry spamming) In which case you're probably really fucking good at streaming. Wouldn't you expect it to even out slightly because of playing different types of maps?KukiMonster wrote:

I think if you averaged the time I've played across the full 2 years I've been playing on off for it would be like 5 hours a week maybe and that's being EXTREMELY generous. I have 50% more hits than you and consider myself to barely play. I'm with buny on this one. It's like hitting up the gym for 10 minutes a week and expecting to see results.
Unnecessary clinging to details. PC is the most effective way of depicting one's experience because we assume the player isn't stupid enough to spam retries.Kheldragar wrote:

Even if he had 70k PC he is still far away from any possible limit unless he suffers from some hand injury.
The best thing you can do is just to keep playing without thinking too much. Think only when you have to.

I have played for 2 years too. My playcount is +100k. The difference between you and i. "I am Addicted" Are you?!
Why is this the most effective way as opposed to hits? You haven't explained anything. What does it offer over hits?AmaiHachimitsu wrote:

If someone has 5,000,000 hits and 20,000 playcount I'm going to say he's probably more experienced than the person with 2,000,000 hits and 25,000 playcount. How can you say the guy with a higher playcount is more experienced? Assuming not spamming retries does nothing when you can just look at hits instead and people DO do that.
Look at me. My play count is high af compared to my hit count. OP, imho you don't hit your limit till you've played actively for 6 months straight and see no progress. Even then, if you just take a break for a week and start playing again like I did, you can still improve.
If you aren't putting in at least 300k key presses a month you don't play this game. It would take me less than an hour each day to hit that benchmark. God forbid I put in half that many in a single weekend if I want to.
On an average day I'll do something like 20,000 to 40,000 and the highest I've gotten a day is like ~50,000. Thank you what pulse. (Yes, I pulse before I play and I think the amount of chatting for key presses is insignificant.)chainpullz wrote:

I only play for 2-4 hours.
Dude it took me 3 days to get 70k wtfKheldragar wrote:

It also looks like you're playing 1 star songs.HK_ wrote:

Not everyone is as good as you
I'm referring to the note density in 1 star maps vs 5 star maps.HK_ wrote:

I could play the same maps as you and not come close to 50,000 hits for a day even if I played for hours.
So that actually means that i overdid it?
