So when do you start getting SS scores on Hard? Like average current level/play count/account age.
Just wondering. Oh, and I don't know if I am posting in the right forum. Just thought "General Discussion" would work since this is about osu!.

Where can I go to learn about things like this? I've been painfully aware of my lack of knowledge in this area since before I've played osu!, but I don't even know where to start. I know literally zero about the science of music.CDFA wrote:

Mappers have certain ways they handle certain rhythms, and understanding that is essential to being able to successfully play maps

They're beats. They're as you hear them, nothing too special, it's not like if you have musical knowledge it would help in this game, well, maybe a little with timing(?).Philosofikal wrote:

i used to just tap along to songs in 1/1, now whenever im listening to music i alternate in 1/4, people look at me like im crazy in publicbigfeh wrote:
Timing is pretty much natural to the human brain, and so is music. That's why we know it's music when we hear it, we like it for the most part and know generally how fast a song is (not talking numbers, but you can easily find the beat by, say, tapping to the rhythm)

There's really no reason to SS hards unless you aren't ever planning to get better or you enjoy not having to see 100s
yeah but deep down you know you got a 100Kheldragar wrote:

I enjoy going for mapset SS too.KukiMonster wrote:
Try SS every diff in mapset, very fun.

I regret farming ~750 SS on hard
Having a knowledge of music is absolutely useless for osu. Almost every single song is in a 4/4 or 3/4 metre. It's much more a physical skill than a cerebral one. The point about knowing mappers styles is a true one, but it has nothing to do with musical theory. In fact, thinking about the game in musical terms might actually do more harm than good, as maps often do not logically follow what is happening the music. This is especially the case in harder maps. I don't think this is a bad thing at all, it is just that an osu! beatmap is not equivalent (or even remotely similar) to a piece of music.Philosofikal wrote:

This guy knows what he is talking and CDFA pretty much mentioned only about rhythm and hand-eye coordination, the game is just simple as thatsottovoce wrote:
