4.38 stars? There's no way. SnowWhite got the same amount of PP for DT HDing this as he did for this https://osu.ppy.sh/b/299041?m=0

Barring the fact that the second song i linked is shown with an [H] with 2.86 stars, and the 4.38 star song is bewilderingly an [I], has the star system been disconnected from ppv2 on the website? How is it then that most songs havent had their star rating changed?

I don't know if this is all intended but the star system is really convoluted and simply seems wrong right now.

Of lesser concern is a client related issue where this song shows 4 stars in game [rounding up? most other songs dont do that..] when only being 3.74, although similar songs of that star diff just show a partial fourth star, not half a star, but a precisely cropped one. I don't know if this is a bug or intended but i just mention it in passing to the main issue here.

What skin version are you using?

Not sure if related, but a lot of beatmaps are showing the wrong difficulty on the website.

Example: https://osu.ppy.sh/s/20406 Another is 5.40* on the website when it's 3.60* ingame.

Actually it seems like everything's star rating is multiplied by 1.5 on the website right now.

I think they've just changed the way it calculates the stars (making it better to fill up the 10 stars) - if so I think it's going through and updating each page or something.

This map hasn't updated yet on the website, so it has 3.29 stars (4.94 in-game, insane) and shows the "Hard" icon.



If you use the search, it shows the normal "insane" icons:

The website is still recalculating all of the difficulties after today's changes to the new star difficulty system. Just be patient.

The reason why it's 1.5x is to line the system up more closely to what the system was before the update (since people are already complaining about difficult maps being only 3 stars). With the numbers that people are already used to in the old system (aka almost everything labelled Hard or Insane is 5 stars), it makes more sense for maps to be 5.25+ stars out of 10 rather than 3.5+ stars out of 5.
