C or above I meant. I think I was able to play 5 star maps around maybe 3 -4 months into the game, by playing I meant spam and get something around a C on TV size or short maps but due to the my typically Asian parents beating me with a stick every time I came home with less then A's in my exam results, I don't bother completing any clears unless they are A's. >.>

I know its bad, people say play through the entire map regardless but I just can't get myself to do it, even when I reach a clear on a map which is difficult for me I choose not to submit the score.

If you get 400+ plays a day, yeah.

I passed remote control (5.46 stars) with an A within my first 2 or maybe even first month of playing, because of low HP drain and some big jumps overrating the star rating of that map, making it much harder than it seems. Also passed cirnos perfect math class TAG4 (6.84 stars) because HP2.0.....

Passing alone generally isn't a viable way of measuring skill, FCs are way more accurate. To put it into perspective, I didn't get my first 5 star nomod FC until around 6-7 months after playing (it probably took others much shorter since I didn't play much when I first started off) and it will probably be at the very least another 7 months from now until I can FC a 6+ star nomod map, if ever (6 star DT probably is doable not too far away from now though).

took me over a year to fc a map that became at least 5 stars with DT
then like 2 months later to do a modless one.. hey that wasnt long ago actually.

but ironically, i was passing 5 star modless maps long before i could pass any 5 star dt maps. It took me a lot of practice to even get decent enough to pass easy ar8 maps with dt.

i'd accrue 50+ nofail C rank plays on almost every entry level ar8 dt map for a good month or 2 before I could finally start getting decent clears and eventually FCing them. not joking on the 50+ thing, i can s/s some of my locals. I used to do nothing but nofail, i think i have somewhere between 30-40 full nofail plays of that renard marathon.

I'd imagine someone who didnt bash their head against a brick wall like i did for so long and actually progressed properly could FC 5 star maps [dt and modless] within 4-5 months if they played daily.

When we say 5 star, are we talking about 5.00+ or Osu's grouping of 4.5-5.50? I assumed the former

In that case I son't know how to define how long it took me to fc them. I have 4 5.00+ Fcs I think and my account is almost 6 months old. I did not play in two of those meaning I have almost 4 months of play. Exactly one month ago I got a tablet when I was mouse only. What did those plays count for? If nothing, I got my first fc after 4 days of gameplay and the other three after 30. If they do count, then that's 3 months to an FC. (I want to improve my acc on it but I got really lucky.)

huh, that's the exact estimate I was thinking. 5 star DT is a lot harder to pass though, simply because they HP is higher. The pass-FC margins are closeer with DT.

It took me a year to be able to do 5 star maps, I still have problem with finger control. I imagine if you did everything right from the start and was dedicated you could do possibly do it 5 months. Definitely not one moth though, unless spamming is your standard (for a lot of people it is).

It took me around a year of playing to finally be able to full combo 5 star maps. I was playing them about seven months in, though.

Well, I was playing 5 stars within my first 2 months, passing them with C-B (I was spamming like crazy, don't do this). As for FC's, I didn't FC my first 5-star until 3 months in (complete fluke, shit acc), and even now I can't reliably FC anything above 4.9 stars.

I'm not sure about other people, but it took me about 3-4 months, around 8500+ plays to be able to get B's on 5 star songs.

Probably when you get 10k playcount you ll be able to do them not that well.
At 20k+ playcount, you'll feel a lot better with them.

I am basing this by looking at your profile.

im at 10k playcount and i can kinda pass them, which sucks. i think it'd take me more than 20k playcounts to be able to fc them. You'll need more plays and practice, so you might need maybe more than a month or so.

don't judge anything by playcount, it's an irrelevant statistic.

Here's two easy to FC 5 star songs. The second one has some bitch slider breaks near the 330 combo

Well recommended difficulty kinda doesn't seem to work quite right :P

I was being recommended 2.95 star songs when I was playing 4-star songs.

it recommends me 4.71
which most of the time is pretty difficult to FC for me.

It recommends me 4.85. It's fairly accurate since it recommends a lot of stuff already in my top ranks, but it only recommends stuff you have to acc to get PP. That sort of stuff is good to train acc obviously, but if you want to train aim and speed you should be playing slightly harder stuff.

Took me ~3 months with ~6,000 plays to FC a 4.92 (Killer Song) with 97.65% acc (It's the only one around 5 Star I could remember to look up)
Being able to FC one in a month would require a ton of quality playing.

Usually depends on people and how good they are at this game I guess? Can range from a few months to maybe even a year if they really drag things out.
