Does fc'ing give you bonus pp?
like when captn got this did he lose out on a whole bunch of pp by not following through one slider

I have a feeling you're half-right, I think the reason this happens is actually because (according to wiki) your amount of miss is also factored into the pp calculation. I think the reason you'd lose more pp missing a hitcircle than slider-breaking is because of that 1 x miss vs. 0 x miss difference, so it's not directly based on grade but you're still basically correct.Kaeru wrote:
I'm pretty sure performance points are also based on your grade. In other words, if he had missed a circle instead of a slider end, he would have only gotten an A, and he would have lost quite a lot more points. As others have said, though, the max combo is what's the most important.
Huh, it's more like 57.4% than half. Combo is not directly (combo/max combo) * (max PP), like you said it's (combo/max)^.8 * (max PP), so you won't lose much from a max combo -1 for slider ends. The accuracy loss probably makes a bigger difference in most cases.monstrata wrote:
I remember reading somewhere that (your max combo)^0.8/(song's max combo)^0.8 is the scalar for how much pp you can achieve.
For example, getting a half combo would basically mean taking the song's maximum pp, and multiplying by 0.50.
