Let's fix the website first. It keeps crashing on me every time I reload.
Why not say like that ONE or TWO types of difficulty can have two maps in it or something, like an
ENHHIIX, ENNHIXX, ENHIIXX, ENHIIX spread?
Like EEENNHHIIIIXX wouldn't be allowed?
Just my two cents?

Why do we want to change something, that isnt borken. If you look at a average or a new player, they will all have problems to improve. Why do you want people to improve in big steps, instead of little small ones?

What kind of wall?
A WALL TO PREVENT QUALITY MAPPING
i love when a game that doesn't create any of its own content, that should be thankful anyone is even making maps for their game at all, starts bringing the hammer down on the people that make their game a success.
no really, this 'snake eating its own tail' mentality is hilarious, i can't wait to see how this plays out. I legit can't believe this is real.

That's more of a problem with "lowest diff < 2.0 star" rule. We still need to make those diffs even with this change.Wafu wrote:
Meaning, if there is some very fast song, people tend to make somewhat normal-ish easy, so lower difficulty would be sometimes appropriate.
Very nice visual explanation!Mr Color wrote:
hey i didn't read the whole thread but if you're reading this chances are you probably already know your idea is borked.
but yeah i'm gonna try and explain why despite not having been around the game in a long time but hey my name's in black so that means if i'm not relevant well at least I was at some point
so this graph in the opening post is like this right
but really that's not what's happening and we all know this. the spread in difficulty is infinitely wider in the higher than lower levels. To me trying to chart this out is already pretty dumb because some maps will have a spread with easy easies, easy normals, easy hards and so on, other with hard easies (which uh good luck with that), hard normal, hard hards, etc. but if we were to chart it out this is what it would most likely look like
obviously this is all relative which is why i disagree with the idea of even charting it out but oh well it will do. so pretty much the idea is that it's actually very stupid to require such a spread when there is absolutely no leeway with how hard/easy difficulties can go. i still don't understand why 1/4 is outright banned from normals. other rhythm games less difficulties yet cover a higher range because hey some songs make easy maps and others make hard maps. (shoutouts to jubeat and REUNION with that lv10 normal)
if you want your difficulty spread to make more sense then you should allow more flexibility into how easy and hard the difficulties within that spread rank. By the way, we have a star rating system that (from what I can tell) works now, so even a name like "easy" and "normal" is kind of whatever because all that matters is that star rating in the end.
let me try to chart what i'm trying to say. we'll take Easy and Ultra as their logical maximum, aka how easy/impossibly hard a map can be.
that's basically my beef with the new set of rules you guys have been pushing, haven't really looked at the rest of the announcement and it's implications but if it makes as little sense to me as this does i'll make another post showing my glorious photoshop skills

Since pretty much every post has been "This is bullshit" (even my posts), I will attempt to post a reason why the second rule is horrible (if it wasn't obvious enough).
According to this, we can have a 3* Hard and a 5* Insane, but no way to make a Light Insane that is 4* for good difficulty spread
Please change..

For months now everyone complains about shit mapping, now we announce a change and everyone says it was fine.
Make up your fucking minds.
Things are not ending, this does not kill your ability make maps, you can still make multiple sets for a single song, you still have options.
And not everything here is final as already stated, it's not like we just ignore what everyone else thinks, there's just too much to reply to currently.

This post is gold and should be read by everyone, it explains why this ruleset should've been discussed with actual people and accepted by them before being implemented.
Over half of the new council are rejecting they accepted this new ruleset, i sense powertrip.

The fact that it is so vague that it is being misunderstood by everyone (it's still a terrible rule though for reasons I've stated previously) reflects on how poorly created this rule is.ztrot wrote:
The difficulty is not dependent on the star rating. The mapping techniques used within the difficulty and the spread to the surrounding difficulties define the category each difficulty level falls into. Difficulties must be named to reflect that.

I'm sorry I must have missed the 200 posts an hour of people complaining about shitmaps. I don't suppose you have the thread that happened in handy anywhere? Or by "everyone" did you mean "less than 1% as many people as there are opposing this change"?Zak wrote:

Are you stupid?
Proposing a good change is different from a bad change.
"Make up your fucking minds"
So I can choose between a bad change and a bad change? Oh thanks I'll take the bad change please!

1. Quit mapping and osu
2. We can rank same song in a week, and remove the 6 maps a day rc
After these 2 changes, let us if new one is good
3. quit mapping and osu
Finally a good reason to quit tjis stupid game.

This is a change in the system, not the mapping itself. There still can be shitmapping with this new system. Your logic is flawed.Zak wrote:

Damn I feel bad for the mapping community now. This restriction is a little too excessive. This is a very drastic change that limits mappers to make a variety in their sets. As a modder myself this doesn't quite affect me as really it will be easier to get shit done, but I don't like to condone what people want to map.
The way that it's structured I don't know how well with limiting difficulties in a set would do.
It's ok we as a community don't have power or say in a discussion this big because we are obviously living in an world where Donald Trump exists. Sad, sad world indeed. My regards to all mappers out there. Good Luck with this one

Meh
This pretty much reminded me when they wanted to eliminate 30 secs mapa

This isn't the fix we were hoping for.
