yes.
please tune your universal offset
it makes a big difference because there is only a 10 ms gap between hitting a max and hitting a 75%
My offset is currently 5 ms, it should really be 17 ms (i did an offset test on quaver) but im used to hitting the tiniest big late and it saves me if im running a little behind on the song's tune.
local offset is basically just the offset for the map only for you, you dont need to change that unless only one map you play is offbeat
regarding the universal offset, there are a few things that could factor into making your timing off
- your rhythm sense
2. your moniter (60hz, about 15ms - 20ms delay)
3. your headphones. Never use wireless headphones as they have a huge delay that makes the game unplayable
4. your keyboard polling rate. this will only effect it abit, but its always best to have a keyboard with 1000hz polling
rate. You might be able to change it in your keyboard software app (for me its iCUE)
Basically if you feel like you're hitting perfectly on time but you're not getting max, aka. marvelous, rainbow perfect, then you might want to look into the 4 things i just listed.
You can also try looking at the bottom of your screen, where the offset bar or whatever you call it lies.
when you see lines to the left, it means you're hitting
too early, if its to the right, it means you're hitting
too late. When the timing its too early, which is the most common case, you have to make your offset to +ms, to balance out the timing.
