The new scoring system is killing my will to play.

I have no issue with your performance being based 100% on your accuracy, its fine and can be a way better way of defining how good you are in a map. BUT, the way it's being handled does not make any sense.

If now your acc is the defining thing behind your performance, WHY WOULD YOU STILL GET THE PP FROM YOUR BEST SCORE?

"You did it before, you can do it again" seems simple right? Until you factor chronic anxiety. Now, when I'm doing well in a map the thought of ending up with a slightly better score with lower accuracy overwhelms me, and makes me effectively screw up the ending 9 times out of 10.

The very day my scores were updated, I managed to get a + few thosand points over my previous best pp map but with a 1.5% worse accuracy, resulting in a 17pp loss. Not that much to the highers ups but to me, it dropped me 3 ranks (60th to 63rd) in my country's leaderboard, and my goal right now is to break 50th, I thought I could get it back, but almost as many +pp plays I get, I get -pp plays as well, and what seemed well within reach feels insurmountable to climb through, having my anxiety hold me tight whenever I'm about to see progress.

I know, it's just a game and it shouldn't affect me this much, but it's horrible to feel like one of the few things I could genuinely see my hardwork paying off, becoming one more thing that my anxiety cut the joy out of.

You can always switch to other platforms like eterna and quaver.

Ngl i check my accuracy now whenever im almost done with the song to see if its higher or lower than my previous score, if the accuracy is lower i back out of the song to save my rank. I think there should be a lot more of an accuracy driven scoring system now since pp is based only around accuracy now.

You know, different mods count as different best plays...

You can either turn on/off Mirror based on your top pp play.

Also: 7K gang rise up!

Play 4K :troll:

Acc is easier to get there
midgy
no.
play 9k, the REAL RHYTHM game

How about one more finger? Where did that one go?

if you were looking for a rhythm game then mania is not the place

mirror mod helps, always choose to improve the lower pp score of NM/MR (or smth like DT/DTMR), and you can never lose pp.

There will be a rollback to score based pp until the people being scoreV1'd issue is resolved. The new score-pp relation will be:

so we're going back to score based pp?
if so when should we expect an acc based pp system to come back or is there no info on that?
Quotient
Not just for mania mode, but wouldn't it be better to just record the score with the highest pp? (aside from leaderboards)

Assuming that osu does save every submitted score for every user that is.

They definitely do. They made a new database for new scores to be submitted since the old one has reached it's cap.

enjoy game , try different modes like ctb(which is actually fun until platter-rain) , try different keymodes , don't aim at pp and rank
trust me when you push rank hard enough , you will realize became deranker is really gr8

or try mapping and enjoy suffering there ^^

Well, accuracy on 7k is hard ngl, even mre when you don't play 4k to have a base, you can that in your top plays you have negative ratio (idk if its how we call it) on rice maps that are supposed to have better accuracy, for now just play more until you get a better accuracy, and still, score based system still depends on score, and score comes from accuracy after all so :/


Ps: boa sorte aí

where could I find this? i'd like to read more about it
Stomiks
I think it's on the osu!dev discord server

Honestly I don’t think a rollback would be really that great.
