It has been a long time since we've run any sort of Community Voice poll or discussion, and we figured there's no better time to dig into a relatively-lengthy survey than during these troubling times where everybody is stuck at home with little to do.

If you're interested in letting us know your thoughts and opinions on a few key topics, please check out the following link and fill it out. We'll be carefully taking note of all the feedback we get here for a series of future polls and surveys that will help shape the course of the game going forward.

Click here to fill out the Community Voice 2020 survey!

Feel free to pass the link around to your friends who play, and get them to fill it out too. The more responses we get, the better things will go for everyone.

My least favorite game mechanic is notelock. I understand why and how it happens, but it would be much simpler if you were not locked to a single note to hit at a specific time. I know this may encourage spamming random circles, but it could also help alleviate some stress of failing due to missing 1 note.

It's great to see this coming back. Are any of the interesting metrics being shared after the survey concluded?

One thing I've always wanted to know, is who added me?!? I have DMs open everywhere, really approachable, not a top player of any kind, I always add back, so why are there so many unnamed friends? Am I scary? Who are these people?!?

And yeah, notelock is there to prevent 6 digits from cheesing patterns, but it also ruins the experience for those who play properly, completely negating the point for it's existence. If it has to exist, it has to be more lenient.

Lol

ALSO notelocking sucks pls remove.
many plays i've had that would have been FCs if not for this decrepid feature.

beatmapsets/1785#osu/21010 is a very good example of notelocking in the very beginning. It's a pain in the rear trying to manage those hellish stacks in the beginning, and this isn't some unranked thing, this is an approved map.

Pls make notelock more lenient. To Storm_AT's point above me, it's there to stop cheesing but it gets to a point where I just get pissed that I can NEVER make streams in maps when I'm perfectly capable of it.

for me the sad part of the rebalance in the pp is that in this next change will drop significantly the stars in the maps and "throw me back" like 1,5 years in the past when i was playing 5.90*~6.00* maps, i dont care about my pp but losing a visible number in the of the progress is disappointing

i feel that without notelock maybe this game was going to be boring because you know that there is no notelock anymore and you just think about your score was meaningless and it wasn't challenging, also everyone FCs and gets pp and the ranking system gets f*cked, it should be there for a reason and maybe without it the game was like not challenging anymore i guess ?

Since I had left my profile link in there, I would like to additionally clarify that I don't care about being competitive in osu! for the reason mentioned above. I would like to play competitively on fair grounds, where one mapset/s does not exploit PP system, leaving players who refuse to play PP exploiting (farming) maps under an unfair disadvantage.

Yep, we'll be sharing a breakdown of the survey results once we conclude it in a week or two.

Personally I believe note locking should just be modified in some way rather than stripped from the game. Its a good way to practice not going to fast a spamming but sometimes note locking can become very annoying such as on a good play that you end up note locking near the end due to being nervous or something other. Glad to see the community having a say in another survey. Keep it up!

It's really the best game I have ever played for years ago, and I also wanted a pen tablet for Black Friday 2020 so I can have even more perfect skills. I didn't really get to see much, but of course it's especially a good game for anime lovers and many other music games like Beat Saber. May the star shine on us...

Remove notelock from the game.

I really like when the game punishes me for playing properly.
Overaiming one circle in a stream you have been hitting with 60 UR and failing because of it is pretty fun,ye.
Meanwhile doubleptap just exists in the game.

Lazer is already released, like. 3 years ago.
There is already official osu! video guide series, that does include mapping and whatnot.
Geez, you people really should just look around first before asking.

I'd really like some more progression systems.. PP was fine for the longest time but im tired of just farming the same kind of maps. Hit a wall in terms of improvement, still love playing tho. I would just love to fill any progression bar - maybe for different mods, see a more meaningful number grow. More kinds of pp systems for different skills or mapping styles (hard to accomplish im sure..) Achievements seem boring to me, but its a step in the right direction. The player level is a useless number, what use has the score number? Global ranks are too time consuming and tiring to achieve. Im not an overachiever compared to those monsters.

Gimme anything to unlock, anything to decorate myself with by trying different things or showing endurance in play even when stagnating or participating in the community. Dunno, integrate an optional clicker or idle game, thats what it is anyway when i listen to or play the music i learned to love. I remember peppy writing that he would love to make a rpg or something (dont quote me on that)

How about some better media control to enjoy the music, its a huge part of the game and i don't want to and can't tap away all day.

Maybe there is some way to make interacting in the game more fun, maybe when spectating another player. Come on, everyone loves a little attention or acknowledgement for the skills they develope, be it a a newbie or pro. Im still amazed about what i can do, how i have gotten better over the years, how others improve, what they can do. Can anyone think about a way to participate while spectating? Ffs i'd farm some osu! coins other players drop while farming

I love osu! but i really wouldnt mind a fresh experience, something else to strive for, something i can spend a lot of time with inside of osu! other than osu!. There is no other way to use what i learned in this game but this game, you know what im saying, its a useless skill outside of osu! and i want MORE and there is always more but i want even MORE

make osu! addicting for the burned out again, you feel me

Man i love you all, do anything or nothing i'll be here anyway
