2015-10-10 13:47 Darcsol: Alright, let's start.
2015-10-10 13:48 Rydawg19: You have a very good map to this point, every note is on point.
2015-10-10 13:48 Rydawg19: The map is really easy to read, which is good.
2015-10-10 13:48 Darcsol: yup
2015-10-10 13:49 Rydawg19: The parts where the notes stack (which I will put the time on in a moment) disoriented me a little
2015-10-10 13:49 Darcsol: Which parts specifically?
2015-10-10 13:49 Rydawg19: (00:42:440) is where it began
2015-10-10 13:50 Rydawg19: You can tell only barely tell theres another note underneath.
2015-10-10 13:50 Darcsol: btw you can copy and paste timepoints. ex: 01:31:653 -
2015-10-10 13:50 Rydawg19: Oh, I did not know that, thank you
2015-10-10 13:51 Darcsol: Anyway, I don't see the problem on that point
2015-10-10 13:51 Rydawg19: The problem is it's so out of left field
2015-10-10 13:51 Rydawg19: Up until that point, everything is cut and pasted
2015-10-10 13:51 Rydawg19: (and by that I mean that everything is clearly cut out and spaced)
2015-10-10 13:52 Darcsol: Sorry, you're still vague. I need examples.
2015-10-10 13:52 Rydawg19: Hold on
2015-10-10 13:54 Rydawg19: 00:35:433- The notes are stacked for that beat, no?
2015-10-10 13:54 Rydawg19: But wait
2015-10-10 13:54 Rydawg19: 00:26:325- The same beat is a slider
2015-10-10 13:55 Darcsol: remember you can copy and paste timepoints 00:26:456 -
2015-10-10 13:56 Rydawg19: Yeah, but my mac is dumb and It's not being convenient
2015-10-10 13:56 Darcsol: Command + C?
2015-10-10 13:56 Rydawg19: Not for mac. Command C isn't recognized, its only C
2015-10-10 13:57 Darcsol: strange, oh well
2015-10-10 13:57 Darcsol: Anyway, I think it's fine.
2015-10-10 13:57 Rydawg19: You're probably right, It might just be a personal thing
2015-10-10 13:57 Darcsol: The map slowly gets more complex as it plays
2015-10-10 13:58 Rydawg19: You have alot of Kiai time too, which is seperated by maybe a half a second of pause.
2015-10-10 13:58 Darcsol: True. I tend to do that.
2015-10-10 13:59 Darcsol: But I agree there's a lot kiai time.
2015-10-10 13:59 Rydawg19: If you could sew them together, since It's really only one note, It would make the kiai explosions slightly less distracting
2015-10-10 14:00 Darcsol: But I find parts like 01:38:267 - where it's more appropriate to seperate kiai time.
2015-10-10 14:00 Rydawg19: Hold on, let me quote this here
2015-10-10 14:01 Rydawg19: It's normal that a Kiai section is slightly more challenging than the rest of the mapset, as Kiai time is also the strongest part of the map.
2015-10-10 14:01 Darcsol: Yeah?
2015-10-10 14:01 Rydawg19: thats straight from the wiki
2015-10-10 14:02 Rydawg19: I mean I agree that both parts are the strongest part of the song
2015-10-10 14:02 Rydawg19: It's just, alot of stimulation.
2015-10-10 14:02 Darcsol: I'll consider it.
2015-10-10 14:03 Rydawg19: Don't get me wrong, you have a fantastic map
2015-10-10 14:03 Darcsol: I need more feedback from other modders.
2015-10-10 14:03 Rydawg19: I'm not really even critiquing the beat placement, you had that on point
2015-10-10 14:03 Rydawg19: You have a really strong map.
2015-10-10 14:04 Darcsol: But?
2015-10-10 14:04 Rydawg19: No buts. The Kiai time was the only flaw that I noticed. That doesn't mean it's not a good map.
2015-10-10 14:05 Darcsol: That's all? There must be a flaw somewhere.
2015-10-10 14:06 Rydawg19: I mean, you made the difficulty name match the difficulty it's supposed to be.
2015-10-10 14:06 Rydawg19: It wasn't easy, it wasn't normal, It wasn't insane
2015-10-10 14:06 Rydawg19: It was just, hard.
2015-10-10 14:07 Darcsol: Alright. I guess we're done with Hard then?
2015-10-10 14:07 Rydawg19: Pretty much, yeah.
2015-10-10 14:07 Darcsol: Other than the diff needs hitsounds
2015-10-10 14:07 Rydawg19: Yeah, but you already knew that
2015-10-10 14:07 Darcsol: Alright, to Normal
2015-10-10 14:08 Rydawg19: Ok, so just checking AiMod, more then 1/3 of the map is kiai time
2015-10-10 14:09 Darcsol: Yeah
2015-10-10 14:09 Rydawg19: Same thing from hard, reduce that
2015-10-10 14:09 Darcsol: I'll consider it
2015-10-10 14:10 Rydawg19: You have really good spinner placement, right before the base drops
2015-10-10 14:11 Rydawg19: Half the map is sliders, which is good for this difficulty
2015-10-10 14:11 Rydawg19: But all the sliders feel the same
2015-10-10 14:12 Rydawg19: slightly curved or straight.
2015-10-10 14:12 Darcsol: What do you mean?
2015-10-10 14:12 Rydawg19: I mean theres no real variety to the sliders. It's just either straight or slightly curved.
2015-10-10 14:12 Darcsol: I don't see how it's a problem
2015-10-10 14:13 Rydawg19: And it's not as big of a deal on hard, where the map is more not based
2015-10-10 14:13 Rydawg19: but when half the map is sliders
2015-10-10 14:13 Rydawg19: it can get repetitive
2015-10-10 14:13 Darcsol: By how the sliders looks or how the sliders are placed?
2015-10-10 14:13 Darcsol: *looked
2015-10-10 14:14 Rydawg19: The sliders are placed well, as they're guiding you to the next note, but they just all look the same.
2015-10-10 14:15 Rydawg19: Does that make sense at all?
2015-10-10 14:15 Darcsol: I don't like using linear sliders or any exquisite slider placement
2015-10-10 14:16 Darcsol: I like to keep things simple
2015-10-10 14:16 Darcsol: and consistent
2015-10-10 14:16 Rydawg19:
t/371942015-10-10 14:16 Darcsol: Yeah, I don't do most of them
2015-10-10 14:16 Rydawg19: All of these designs can make the map a little more fun
2015-10-10 14:17 Rydawg19: This map has such a good beat to make fantastic sliders to
2015-10-10 14:17 Darcsol: I don't think I'll change them anytime soon.
2015-10-10 14:18 Rydawg19: Ok, that's completely ok. I just want to give my opinon.
2015-10-10 14:18 Darcsol: Anything else?
2015-10-10 14:18 Rydawg19: No, thats really it.
2015-10-10 14:19 Darcsol: Okay
2015-10-10 14:19 Rydawg19: You have good mapping skills, there's not very many things to critique
