This thread was a hurricane of shitty personalities, and even shittier comments
This thread asked for this honestly. I think everything would go other way if whole point of this thread was making a laughing stock shitpost but unfortunely, OP was serious about this what created shitstorm.
Like whoa, friends, you don't have to listen to whatever words come your way. (because clearly you don't.) But damn, all you did was take a literal dump on the darn thing. I get it,
Main thing is that not only "old" players and shitposters read GnR, a lot of time newbies comes here and read topics, most likely when they see something like "Advice: how to get better" they will read this. It's how it works.
This topic is heavily missleading and from both - technical and practical point of view complete reverse of "how to be better" - "so called advices" here are main recipe to be a shitty garbage player who just react on circles and don't play a rhythm game at all.
I think making shitstorm here had his purpose, in place of newbie i wouldn't even take seriously "advice" topic where majority of posters throwed shit at OP and mixed whole topic with trash.
Maybe the community will be super friendly and helpful because it's small.
You could be supprised how helpfull and friendly we are if newbie come and post in
right way - being humble, friendly, open and honest with his problem, taking good advices seriously and doing his best at... exacly - playing more.
but if you're playing a longer map and a segment comes that could have been easily emulated by a shorter map then yeah play those shorter maps to get a feel for what it'll be like.
Not true.
There is great amount of long size maps what are practically a constant difficulty spike. There are long maps what are way more difficult than any known TV Size.
Basicaly long maps and especialy marathon maps from 4,5*+ are more difficult than tv size on same star range due requiring way more consistency, stamina, patient and focus.
Main pros of tv size maps is that they are short and farmable for many people, doesn't require extreme aim and stamina consistency and gives less / similar amount of pp.
Difference is - player able to consistently FC long maps will have way easier time with tv size maps while player who focus mainly on tv size maps will have hard time on marathon size maps.
