Like how long does it take the average user to reach 4 or 5 star or 6 star. Maps aover 5 star seem impossible to do for me. How many hours of playing does it take to reach those levels?

its all skill based. the only way to get more skill is- and i know you have heard this but it is the only way- play more

But there's still an average right?

I hit 6 stars with mods after 3 months of playtime, if that means anything

I am getting A-B on 3 star maps after 14 hours of playtime. My accuracy and reading has improved quite a lot since I turned on the hitsounds. They make me think my poor ass has a mechanical keyboard.

REACHING a certain star isn't the hard part, you can play a short 6* map and theoretically reach 6 star, the hard part is actually FCing, as the for average time I have no clue but my personal time it took the reach certain stars is (I don't have the in-game hours so I'll just use plays and around the same months and years)
PASSING:
3* - around 2 months of playing (932 plays)
4* - around 4 months of playing (1837 plays)
5* - around 6 months of playing (4512 plays)
6* - around a year playing (14399 plays)

FCING:
3* - around 4 months of playing (1837 plays)
4* - around 5 months of playing (3227 plays)
5* - around 1 year and 2 months of playing (17,797 plays)
6* - around 2 years and 3 months of playing (39282 plays)

As you can tell I was stuck at FCing 5*s for over a year, but we should all notice the trend, I got better the more I played, and the higher the star the more I had to play to get there.

It should also be mentioned I'm a fairly slow improving player.

I got 2/3 Days playtime and 4.000 play count and i can Fc some 4 star maps And got on most 4 star maps above 90% ACC.
Bayki
3*: like 12 days of playing (374 plays), Fc'd after 2 months of playing
4*: about 1 month of playing (1000 plays), Fc'd after 5 months of playing
5*: 3 months after playing (2500 plays), Fc'd after 6 months of playing
6*: 6 months after playing (10000 plays), Fc'd after 9 months of playing
7*: 9 months after playing (25000 plays), no Fc
8*: 11 months after playing (28000 plays) its Hidamari no Uta though so it doesn't really count.

About after 4 stars, I'd say the game starts to pick up the pace a lot. Do whatever you do to have fun and then you will improve.
EDIT: I Fc'd black rover a while ago sooo

It depends on you tbh

I started playing osu at like august the 1st and kept on playing for 5 months straight and here's the results

Passes

3* = 10/8 > after i got back to osu 5 months later
4* = 29/8
5* = 29/8
6* = 23/9
7* = 06/11
8* = not yet..

FC

3* = 31/8
4* = 31/8
5* = 24/9
6* = 23/12
7* = i wish xd...

i can't be bothered to put my play count but overall it's 38236

I think most people reach 5* when they have about 200 - 300 hours

Why do you have spun out and no fail on all your top plays?

That's an old habit from back in the time when i was mostly playing marathons.
After setting some top plays with those mods by accident, i choose to always play with these.

Really depends on your skill, but for me it was

3* pass - 9 days
4* pass - 19 days
5* pass - 1 month 8 days
6* pass - 2 months 21 days
7* pass - a little under 4 months
8* pass - hopefully soon

3* FC - 24 days
4* FC - 67 days
5* FC - 57 days
6* FC - 183 days if you count touchscreen, and 257 days if you don't.
7* FC - I wish ;)

For me it was (passes):

3*: 11/2/2019 (the day I joined osu)
4*: 12/2/2019
5*: 1/3/2019
6*: 11/6/2019
7*: 9/6/2019 (yes you read that right I passed airman before my first 6* pass)
8*: 7/2/2020

Obviously this isn't be the average but thought I'd chime in

It's not old enough to be shamed for necropost, at least in my opinion

I mean the conversation was already finished for a while. There was no need to make the post imo, but i guess its just my opinion at the end of the day
haha i rolypoly
a long time

Hmm, it took me about 18 hrs of play time to stop getting C's at 3 stars and ascend at 4 star, im still not at 5 star, but it would probably take me 1 day and 18 hrs to ascend to 5 star (currently at 1 day and 12 hrs play time)
Sugar_owo
depends on the person and stuff in your life and motivation 'n such.

for me it took (in hours played) 14 hours. It's still not the best for me, but i can gets A's and B's

for 4 star, i haven't made it yet but maybe 1 day- 1 day 3 hours play time

for all the others 2 days 13 hours - 3 days 08 hours

  1. ~70 hrs, 1000pp - FC high 3 star, pass low 4 star
  2. 120 hrs, 1500pp - FC low 4 star, pass mid 4 star
  3. 150 hrs, 2000pp - FC low 4 star, pass some low 5 stars
  4. 220 hrs, 2500pp - FC high 4 star, pass low 5 stars
  5. 320 hrs, 3000pp - FC low 5 star, pass high 5 stars
  6. 410 hrs, 3750pp - FC mid 5 star, pass low 6 stars
I estimate it will be around 500 hours before I can FC 6 stars.

like a lot of other people said, its different for everyone

if you want an approximation, i can pass up to cheese 9* and fc up to 7.6*ish by 350hours (4 years after starting)

it really depends on how much effort you put into the game, i quit for a year so it took me a while to get back my skill
ys_is9
with my currently play time (about 7 days) i can fc lower 5* to high 4* and pass most 6* maps and i have 1 7* pass

Probably because I play maps like freedom dive because I find streams satisfying so I keep retrying them and I used to retry spam back when I was like a 7 digit

I know I said literally don't compare with others in a improve post but damn bro how are you that much better even after taking a 1 year break with half my playtime.

hmm maybe the long break helped

I finished my first 3 star (raise my sword 3.13) in my first hour of playtime. I have recently finished (raise my sword 4.67) at 8 hours of playtime and has just started trying 5 stars.
ER0sama
wait so ur saying i have been playing the game wronggggggg
i moved on the next star without ever thinking bout fcing
seddddd
AbrasiveQuiver
Well these are hjow long it took me to pass and fc those

first 4 star pass - was arnd 24 days after my first 3 star pass
first 5 star pass - 2 days after
first 6 star pass - 22 days after
first 7 star pass - 28 days after


first 2 star fc - 3 april
first 1 star fc - a day after
first 4 star fc - 12 days later
first 3 star fc - 1 day later
first 5 star fc - 23 days later
first 6 star fc - 29 days later

(yes all of these are in chronological order)

and i dont actually remember the amt of plays i had during those Fcs and passes

so it took me around 13 days from first time playing to fc a 4 star,
35 days from first time playing to fc a 5 star,
and 64 days from first time playing to fc a 6 star.

bro i have completed a 7.5 star and i only have been playing for 8 month

I think it really differs from one person to another. For me, I literally started playing osu 35 days ago (didn't start with zero knowledge tho, already knew the game basic BUT without knowing any terms at all like burst stream etc) and now I can already FC some 4.0 - 4.5* 2+ 3+ minute long maps with 97++ acc, which I think is quite a fast progress (I got accused of smurfing twice today). But I really suck at jump farm maps, whereas there are many people who are the opposite of me; good at farm maps but bad at long maps. So I guess it really depends on the person, and how much you put your time on the game everyday (consistency).

It took me like 1 month to nearly get 5 stars and I have 600 plays, so it varies between player.
KeikiEnjoyer
I try to increase my star level by 1 every month

started playing, did 1* and 2*, got lucky and did 3*
started playing again in may and suddenly able to play 3* and fcs it
next month got my first 4* play
last month got my first 4* fc
this month did a high 5*

i hope this continues

Depends on your skill and talent, I reached 6* on about a 100 hours and I have some friends that did the same. Though, I don't think you should compare yourself to average playtimes on reaching certain star ratings cuz that's just gonna hurt your confidence. Just play and improve at your own rate.

(i love necroing) im not sure how i improved so quickly. maybe because i just trained aim 90% of the time

i see you have hdhr plays in your top so i feel like you are a more well-rounded player than me

I started in 2016, took a 5-year break, came back in January/February, and I had my first 5* pass within the last week. DUnno how that compares, but I guess by Wintertime I should have a 6* pass...???

(as a completely unrelated aside, I'm kinda saddened by how my top plays are getting inundated with HRHDDT plays. They're all 1*'s unadjusted for HR+DT, FFS.)

3 days, almost a month, 2 months, 3 months, based on the day I started osu! tho.
haalamn

This thread is pretty much dead, but I am almost at a 5.6* pass with 17h playtime and 1468 playcount. I haven't gotten it yet, but I am getting very close.

Relax mate, playing higher star will not benefit (unless you are going for fun). You can't pass 5star not even 4star because mostly map I can see in your profile is some 40seconds to 100secondw map

I doubt that you can actually pass a real 5*. and as manish has said, rushing higher stars will not benefit you, in fact it can lead to developing bad habits that will affect your ability to fc maps.

If the thread is pretty much dead, why the fuck did you necro it instead of making your own post?

Also, what Manish and AWW said. Unless said 5* is just as short as the ones in your profile, you kinda aren't really passing a 5* (in the sense that it's a good 5* pass, not that you objectively did it). Stop playing so many short songs and get some longer (at least 2 minutes or longer) maps in your top plays, and start playing far easier stuff (without mods) than what you've got right now. I'd suggest about 1.5-1.7* at first, and shoot for at least 95% accuracy on any map you play in that range.
