no love for high CS

why is it that 98% of maps nowadays are cs4? Out all the beatmaps I have, a tiny fraction are cs5, and even a smaller amount of those aren't 2008 style or stream/tap heavy with low spacing. If I want to practice aim and precision, I've had to resort to either editing maps, which I don't like doing, or playing hardrock, which comes with super high OD and AR.
There are already thousands and thousands of cs4 maps, So I think it'd be nice if mappers in 2014 could add a bit more variety to cs and make a few cs5/6 maps that are aim heavy.

With the recent addition of decimal values of map settings, expect to see a lot more variety.

Personally I think cs4 is too big and cs5 is too small. Same as ar9 as to ar10.

Which is exactly why they introduced the CS 4.- this way you can pick something like CS4.6. Same goes for AR.

For me personally, CS4 is perfect but CS5 is playable. It is not my favorite but I can play it. I can read AR9 so easily but I literally die at AR10 or higher.

Is it really such a big deal? That's what HR is for, unless you want smaller notes than CS5.6...
I hate CS5 maps personally, although it's sometimes cool to see players HR them.

I wouldn't mind seeing a bit more of these cs5.2 maps, I really enjoy them and they are very good for aiming.

i've taken a liking to cs6.5 lately. it's fun to hit precise jumps.

cs4 is the most popular because it doesn't require a lot of control to hit, while not looking ugly and still keeping a decent challenge to it. basically, people are scrubs.

As long as the high cs maps also come with ar10 attached I support this movement. Otherwise just play HR if you want higher CS. CS6.5 is awful and the vast majority of maps should be made playable both nomod and HR from that perspective.

Thus, if you want higher CS you play HR (see: a choice). It's pretty much the same reason why the majority of fast maps aren't ar10. They play great on ar10 but that should be an option for those who can read and enjoy ar10. Why not make a map that's fun for more than just a small crowd of enthusiasts?

I'm slow like a turtle. Plz no bully, I hide in my rock hard shell.

No, what I' saying is there should be low CS maps for people who can't or don't want to play HR. Because not everyone wants to play with super high OD and AR.

I didn't believe that 98% until I checked, out of 1743 5 stars song, only 287 is cs=5 and above (and 90% is probably before 2013) and that's 1.64%

meh, 2012 and 2011 songs still have some fun maps by my standards

So people who likes big circles should play easy mod instead? :p

I always liked small circle size (and CS5 actually was an old default instead of 4), but mapping with smaller circle size requires more mapping expeirence for keeping choosen patterns suitable for small cs.
