Wooo, Beatmap 22 is here!

It's the second Kid Cudi map of mine. I do plan to do another when I have time... But then I think I'm done with Cudi.
I have been very very busy lately with IRL stuff, so this map sure took time to make since I could only map a little here, and a little there.


You may wonder what's up with the difficulty names? Let me explain!

Since this beatmap is about tripping on shrooms, I thought I'd name the difficulties after different levels of "tripping". (Thanks to Google and Wikipedia)

Threshold (Easy), is obviously the first stage where you lightly feel the effects of the shrooms.
Trip (Normal), is when you do actually feel a trip, where you may have a somewhat spiritual experience and witness messy colors and other interesting or funny stuff.
Ego Death (Hard), is when you lose contact with your own ego, and when you are one with everything. Really hard to explain, even after reading up on it.


Blah blah, whatever.
This map turned out great, and I consider it one of my best.

Enjoy it!

Edit #1: Some minor changes as suggested by Powerdrone311's interesting mod. End chorus of Normal and Hard is now slightly different so it's not as much copy-pasta around here.
Edit #2: DiamondCrash's killing of repetition
Edit #3: roflninja's combo mod.
Edit #4: Only one of James2250's minor changes.
Edit #5: Some of gyt's suggestions!
Edit #6: Most of RandomJibebrish suggestions.
Edit #7: Agree with mr. Face.
Edit #8: Minor edits as suggested by Nactra. Only very few of them.
Edit #9: 190~kb/s quality mp3 because of sad laws of the world as suggested by Xgor.

Hey there~

General:

Overall very well done... but quite a lot of copy pasta. Perhaps try changing some of these copy pasted beats around a little bit? Especially in the final chorus please.

Threshold:

00:16:184 (1) - This slider is really ugly. Make it more even and symmetrical.

Trip:

01:08:184 (1) - This slider is kind of weird, but I wouldn't mind it if the next slider [01:10:184 (1)] was the same... but this slider is fairly normal. I'd say change 01:08:184 (1) to look like 01:10:184 (1).

02:44:184 (1) - Same as above.

03:32:184 (1) - And again.

04:00:684 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - For the last beats of the song, maybe you could find a more interesting pattern than just two straight lines?

Ego Death:

02:21:934 (1) - This slider is just... odd. Try making it more symmetrical? Maybe something more like this.



Keep it up!

Threshold;

00:20:184 (1,1) - This is a really stupid jump
00:28:184 (1,1) - ^
01:08:184 (1,1) - bah I'm not posting all of these
02:00:184 - Map this break

Trip;

The chorus gets old fast. Too much copy paste.

Ego Death;

The chorus gets old fast. Too much copy paste.

Hi, :)
Thanks for modding my map to :D

[trip]
02:10:684 (7) - new combo?

[ego death]
00:56:684 (1) - no new combo
00:57:184 (2) - if you do ^ new combo here?
01:00:684 (1) - no new combo?
01:01:184 (2) - if you do ^ new combo here?
03:14:934 (1) - no new combo?

Threshold:
looks nice

Trip:
01:57:184 (2,3) - very nazi but slightly off stacking

Ego Death:
00:26:184 (1,2) - random jump?
02:48:434 (3,4) - ^
02:50:184 (1,2) - ^
03:36:684 (4,1) - ^
there are a few other jumps I did not mention but I think they are very unexpected and don't really fit (only my opinion)
Nicely done maps, very few things that I could comment on

Hi.

[Threshold]
Um..some notes are out of distance snapping.I won't list them,but some of them seem too visible and necessary in my opinion.
01:16:184 (1) - I know you can't put it further,but it's really looks like a mistake.
01:32:184 (1) - ^ The same.

[Ego Death]
01:12:934 (1) - Fix distance?
01:52:184 (x) - Well,you could make some other rhytms here imo.Suggestions are below:
01:55:434 (2) - Remove.
01:58:559 - Add note.
01:59:434 (2) - Remove.
01:58:934 (5) - Add note.
02:06:184 (3) - Remove.
02:06:434 - Add note.

Nice work,and song - it's really awesome.

Good luck,star~

[Trip]
03:14:934 (3) - end slider at 03:15:184

[Ego Death]
I don't like the triple invasion here. It is too random and quickly turns into monotonous thing, imho. (Or maybe I'm simply noob :D)

00:49:309 (2) - delete?
02:15:059 (6), 02:16:059 (2) - delete and add circles here - 02:15:309, 02:15:559
02:16:059 (2) - delete?
02:49:059 (2) - maybe delete and add circle here - 02:48:559
03:14:934 (3) - end slider at 03:15:184
03:34:309 (2) - delete?
03:41:684 (7,8) and other double claps in 4th kiai section - I really like it! :)

Tick rate 2 plx
Set preview point to something earlier on, like 00:16:184 or something

Threshhold
01:53:184 (1) - Remove new combo? feels kinda random
02:13:684 (1) - ^

Trip
Grid level 2 sucks even more than it usually does on second to biggest circles, you get ugly little overlaps that are so close to not overlapping that they make me want to commit suicide
00:28:934 (2,3,4,5) - unoverlap kthx
01:08:184 (1,2) - ^
01:24:934 (2) - ^
02:44:184 (1,2) - ^
02:46:184 (1,2,3) - ^
02:52:184 (1,2,3,4,5) - ^
03:03:434 (4,5) - ^
03:08:934 (1,2,3) - ^
03:18:934 (1,2,3) - ^
03:32:184 (1,2) - ^
03:39:434 (2,1) - ^
03:42:184 (1,2) - ^
03:52:934 (1,2,3,4) - ^
04:00:684 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - ^

Do all that stuff and it's a pretty damn sexy normal

Fine~

Just a couple suggestions:
-I think an extra clap on spots like [Ego Death]00:21:434 (5) would add a nice touch (basically every "Intergalactic you and me"). This goes for both Ego Death and Trip.
-The spinner at the end of Ego Death kind of took me off guard; such a short spinner coming up out of nowhere at the end of a long map like this is kind of a dick move imo :P I would just end the map the same way you did in Trip, personally.

Solid map overall, *

Well, Poison in the graveyard and this almost too. :cry:
Why nobody mods your maps? Why?
You need to post more in modding queues or something...

Please note that i am almost strictly on the player standpoint. My mod should only be taken on the scale of map playability.


[overall]
Don't put kiai on all chorus sections. it looks lame.
you should only enhance the last chorus with it, it will have a much higher impact. the reasoning behind this is that last chorus is the importance peak of the song. if it looks just like any other part it looses it's epic factor, and i do think that's a shame, despite the fact that most of mappers nowadays tend to just shamelessely kiai whenever it COULD be done.

ehm... cut the .mp3 after 4:04 ? i understand the speech is part of the song but it's kinda anticlimatic.
[Treshold]

(2:00:934) (2,3,4,5) Wayyy too hard for an easy diff. Such difficulties are supposed to be designed for beginners and believe me, they can't do this. Besides, it tends to be a single trap syndrome- if you request enough skill for the player to do this, then why is the rest of the map so much easier ? if you really wants it to sounds like this, make 2 sliders instead of 4 beats.


[Trip]
3:23:934 (1,2) make it symetric with 3:25:934(1,2). would add structure to the map. besides, there are an impressive number of stacks so if you have a reason to break a few of them,you should.

3:35:434 (suggestion) place (3) on x(64) y (160) to break monotony.
3:47:684 (suggestion) place (6) on x:256 y:272 . it would add structure to the map.

[Ego Death]
1:24:934 (suggestion) don't make this a stack. overall structure of the pattern is a right to left-left to right and it's way more fun when you don't stop during it.
i would map (2,3,4) as follow : 2(144;64) 3(192:48) 4(240:48)
5 and 6 reajusts as 5(336;48) 6(416:64)



very good overall =],starred twice

Would love to bubble this. Just need to re-encode the mp3.. to 192 kbit/s

But you don't seem to agree so just posting it here.

Edit:Wahooo!!
