Sorry, but I don't think the spread is between Normal and Hard is acceptable
The justification you provided to C00L earlier on for rhythm progression sounds fine and logical: progression from a 1/1 heavy difficulty to a 1/2 heavy difficulty. The problem is at this BPM players won't be ready to handle the increased object density when going from Normal to Hard.
Bear in mind, both of these difficulties are fine, this post will be for an explanation of why I think that another difficulty is necessary.
00:10:358 - On the normal, you go from 4 3/2 sliders with 3/2 gaps between each one, to on the hard having a chain of 8 1/1 sliders with 1/2 gaps between each one. The slider rhythm isn't a problem, it's more of the fact that you chain so many in a row. Doesn't seem too big, but I know most people wouldn't be able to get away with these differences with an Easy -> Normal progression like this on a more regular BPM.
00:17:858 - Normal has a 1/1 repeat and 2 circles, with 1/1 gaps, Hard introduces a 1/2 and a click after a 1/4 gap. Even with a repeat slider, I don't think you can expect players to transition from 1/1 gaps to dealing with a 1/4 gap at this speed like this.
00:27:500 - Song picks up here, the Normal is doing 2/1 repeats, 1/1 repeats, some 1/1 sliders, and the occasional circle. Hard is doing lots of 1/1 sliders with 1/2 circles in between, even some 1/2 sliders, with sparse 1/1 gaps.
00:40:358 - From here on out, intensity has gone down, but mainly in terms of clicks. We're still seeing this saturated with 1/2 gaps in the Hard diffficulty, but more 1/1 repeats, 2/1 or longer sliders, with 1/1 or larger gaps in the Normal.
00:59:643 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - Even single repeat sliders are introduced here in the Hard, with this section only being a 3/1 slider + circle in the Normal, but at least they aren't 1/4 gaps.
01:36:072 - Like the rest of the map, has many 1/2 gaps with almost no 1/1, and is mapped with 1/1 sliders, 1/2 sliders, and circles in the Hard difficulty, but the Normal barely even uses two 1/1 circles consecutively. Instead, the rhythm is composted mainly of 2/1, 1/1, and circles, enforcing 1/1 gaps.
02:07:143 - 1/2 slider spam with 1/2 gaps in the Hard, compared to 3/1, 2/1, 1/1 repeats, and circles enforcing 1/1 gaps in the Normal.
I would go through the rest, but your difficulties are consistent and at worst, decent, so most of what I have said here applies to the rest. Things like this are why you should get an Advanced difficulty that compromises between these two levels of rhythm density, especially for such a popular song
Also, something I noticed:
[BHR's Normal]
00:09:301 (2) - Given that there's a metronome reset earlier than 1/1, it's better to be safe than sorry and just end this at 00:09:837. There are even stronger beats present on that slider end.
Good luck.

Thank you for your input~ but I must say that high bpm music will always have more density than songs with a more "regular BPM".
First, I'll say that this isn't necessary since the metronome reset is only 14ms and the player has a 1/1 gap to react to the incoming slider. Other songs with metronome resets this small don't really change anything to accommodate for it. If it was as large as a 1/4 reset, then possibly but currently it's as big as a 1/16 lol.
Even in 200bpm, a song that is comprised of mostly 1/4s will be much denser and the jump from one undermapped diff to another undermapped diff will be quite big when it comes to density. When you're referring to songs of a "regular BPM" and here I'll assume your typical 180bpm TV size song, then density doesn't become an issue because the song is naturally slower and will provide more gaps in time between each circle. You can't compare high bpm songs to low bpm. A 300bpm comprised of all 1/1s would just be as inflated when it comes to difficulty as you can imagine. If someone were to make it based off of mostly 1/2s, it'd probably already be a 4.5* insane even if it wouldn't feel like one (and this is keeping it simple).
The rest of what you've said in your post is simply comparing the density between difficulties, so rather, try to compare the mechanics of play between each diff. Hard doesn't introduce streams, but insane introduces a single 5 beat stream and a couple repeat sliders. And after Insane, the extras introduce a bit more and more. Normal introduces basic rhythm and so does Hard! The hard difficulty follows mostly standard DS and 1/1 1/2 rhythm, similar to the Normal of having 3/2s and 1/1s, we've now become more dense in introducing 1/2s and replacing 3/2s. No 3/4 shenanigans or triples that some other Hard diffs in "regular BPM" use. It only tones down the overly long sliders of Normal to be kept more to the music while the 1/2s follow the fast vocals. And for the Insane, it varies a bit with circles on the vocals but still lots of 1/2s and 1/1s, just not DS'd.
For the record, I have gathered many testplays on every diff throughout the course of Q4 2016, and made sure that the diffs were playable to their intended audience. NHI for the five and six digit players, and the rest on varying skills from five digits to the single digits. Especially for the NHI diffs where I would go into low rank multiplayer lobbies and see where people may mess up on and for the most part, everything seemed okay. With what happens in high bpm songs on lower diffs is that density becomes evident and the player has to react to the speed of the song rather than the complexities within the map.

Let's just say that it's been done before and it'd be more controversial to talk in the Paraclete set I did than in this set since Snow Drive is fairly basic in its rhythm.Halfslashed wrote:

in raizoken's diff
00:48:929 - isnt the spacing in this part kinda too high? it's almost comparable to the kiai time
i think if u compare this part to the kiai, it should definitely be easier, however 00:49:465 (3,4,5,6) - 00:51:072 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2) - , and etc spacing seems to high
something like 02:03:929 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - would be more suitable?
i also agree with the spread issue form normal to hard.
normal is basically an easy diff but on high bpm, and hard plays like a pretty standard hard diff, you will need something like an advanced diff to bridge the gap, mapped like an actual normal diff with a combination of 1/1 and 1/2
why are you being so difficult here :/ its very simple to solve by adding another diff in, and a mapper at your caliber can make it fairly easily, just dont be lazy

High BPM music will always have more density than songs with a more regular BPM, and thus requires more difficulties to ensure a good spread for players of all levels. Additionally, just because something has been ranked before, doesn't mean that it's okay now.Kroytz wrote:

High BPM and low BPM have different musical structures, but most of the guidelines with relation to timeline snappings (1/1, 1/2) apply to regular BPM, which can then be scaled from for things like 300 bpm songs (1/1 in these songs is like 1/2 in a 150 bpm song).
I also did compare density between difficulties because that is the issue I am addressing. Whether or not it makes sense for spreads to be judged solely on gameplay from a logical sense (I assume you're referring to the tapping aspect), it's been established that rhythm density is central in determining difficulty spread. I mean, you even said it yourself at p/5691903.

@Halfslashed
Yes, I said the difference between NHI is density due to rhythm. Revieweing from a gameplay point of view, which is what I've been talking about with you, is that the Normal difficulty is based around oversimplified rhythm that plays with basic DS and no complicated patterns. Then, Hard is simplified rhythm that also uses ideas of Normal while introducing patterns at a more sound rhythm (here being 1/1s and 1/2s). Now, due to the rhythm composition of Hard, it only feels like it's a bigger jump than Normal because we've gone from using a bunch of 3/2s, 2/1s, and 1/1s to a lot of 1/1s and 1/2s.
This in my opinion is reasonable when it comes to songs at this high BPM because the gameplay mechanics coming from Normal to Hard now adjusts to fit the music more properly; no longer is it oversimplified, now it's only been simplified.
Lastly moving from Hard to insane is introducing the last bits of rhythm complexity such as 1/4s, repeat sliders, and not following the DS that eases the transition of the NHI series into the XXXX diffs. As I've said before, it moreso becomes the player keeping up with the speed of the song at 224bpm rather than trying to play the map for what it offers. Even for some lower 6digit players (let's just say borderline 7 digits), Normal might be hard to keep up with at this high BPM. It's simply the nature of how music works, less time between notes adds density, adds difficulty.

The problem is that 'Normal' uses rhythms you'd normally find in an Easy difficulty (on regular BPM), when 'Hard' starts to use continuous strings of 1/2-objects. Even though there are many sliders, these rhythms are what you'd find in an easier Hard difficulty on regular BPM. The actual difficulty gap is even bigger due to the high BPM than it would be on lower BPM, though.
About the gap between Hard and Insane, it's significantly less huge than the Normal to Hard gap. Again, comparing these rhythms on regular BPM, 'Hard' looks like a relatively easy Hard, 'Insane' looks like a relatively easy Insane. The gap is still quite big, but not as extreme as the lower one.
After long discussions with people, I decided to take this mapset down again. I highly recommend you to fix this issue before pushing it for ranked and balance the spread out more. Best solution would be to add a difficulty between Normal and Hard, and maybe increase the difficulty of Hard a bit afterwards to make the spread more even (because otherwise the Hard - Insane gap will be significantly larger than anything else when adding another difficulty).
I understand the frustration this might bring, but it's really necessary to make this mapset accessible for a wider playerbase.

how to completely fucking ignore the music and vocals and map practically and functionally random cross-screen 1/2s that change momentum and rotation at unpredictable points and in general is a bloody mess to look at. and that's just the kiai.
i hope you're banking on more than bullshit meme power to get this ranked, otherwise you might as well give up while you're ahead. The jump sections (all 20+ of them) need a complete do-over. I'm rather bored of seeing people map literally randomly placed jumps. At least have some basic concept of momentum or cursor positioning. And get a sense of rhythm, while you're at it.
call me if you want an advanced diff, as im willing
i also have tiny concerns on normal w/ od4 and hp4, although don't take that seriously because i must suck at mapping

Maybe don't aim to rank/qualify a map on specific dates so there's not so much stress in fending off otherwise helpful remarks. Bitter/self-righteous people will try extra hard to argue their points if you seem to be rejecting them in order to fit a schedule..

why at christmas 2017 tho? doesnt really make any sense tbh. i know that its a reference because of "snow" drive but still.
its still winter you dont need to wait another 11 months and forget about the map rank it already lul
- 00:08:230 (1) - Out of screen, i don't really know if i'm the only one...
- 00:17:858 (1) - Keep it on the screen.
- 00:29:643 (1,2) - Is weird that you followed the song almost perfect right here, but ¿Why you ignore the emphasis with the same sound right here 00:31:786 (1) - & here 00:33:929 (1) - ?
- 00:37:143 (2) - Keep it on the screen.

- 00:53:215 (1) - Looks really bad.
- 01:00:715 (2) - ¿Why did you ignored those beats?.
- 01:03:929 (1) - Looks awful.
- 01:11:429 (2) - Keep it on the screen, men did you know that, those sliders off the screen are unrakable, right?
- 01:18:929 (1) - You should map that part.

Btw the "Snow Drive Extreme" 1. Haves 2 custom names on the mapset(which is unrankable), 2. the mapping is horrible ¬¬. the whole map haves a Double-A mapping skills, except for that diff.
Also, maybe the modders are link "angry", because why you think that you could rank this on 1/23, men a rank takes like 1 week, ¡2 sometimes! or the simple thing of your "toxic" way to reply to the modders, making them to look stupid, when they are just trying to help you, and you maybe think that you have a perfect mapset, yeah the mapset is good but can improve, try to be a better person and do not think that anything is perfect if you made it, if the people helps you, you should say thanks, if that wasn't helpful you should say: No, thanks, and don't give them a reply them with the purpose of making feel them dumb, that's all.
Good luck on ranking... if this anytime will rank...
Also... the mp4 files... yeah osu! don't recognize them...
Well, since I haven't replied to like the mods for a while and this is all on my part I might as well reply lol
None of the timestamps you placed regarding offscreen sliders are actually offscreen. What constitutes for an offscreen slider are the ones that are offscreen in gameplay, not editor.
Besides that point, stuff like 01:00:715 (2) - is left purposely unmapped to add emphasis to a certain section, for this the pause creates emphasis on the measure by leaving it unmapped.
00:29:643 (1,2) - is clearly different from all the other rhythms of this section, you can hear that the overall mood of the song has slowed down for this section, which is shown with the different rhythm.
Aaaaaaaand the whole slider looking bad thing is subjective so lol
I dunno about the last thing since it's on rocket's part but that's all from me

tbh theres kinda too much overlaps even tho i kno its like 4/1 buts its still kinda taxing for new players to read idk
also im kinda confused on where you're focusing at,sometimes you focus on vocal and suddenly you focus on the drums/snares/idk
01:12:500 (3) - nc since the girl strts talking again in here
01:35:804 - y dont put a note here,feels kinda fitting if you put a note here tbh
01:41:965 (3,1) - feel kinda clunky for new players to play

Kroytz forced asked me to look at Anxient's Normal so here I am
-> check all blankets again
-> read this
02:06:072 (1,2) - why not use the actual 1/3 rhythm here should not cause any problems if placed correctly it's a normal step it up (and that of a 230bpm song at that)
02:26:429 (1,2,3,4) - this embodies alot less intensity than 02:24:286 (1,2,3,4) - ... make them the same, vocally speaking the same stuff is happening
02:26:429 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4) - Why are those the same rhythms while the second combo totally changes up vocals and increases intensity
02:57:500 (3) - I think a reverse silder would be a better way of capturing the long held sound as the player is not pressing anything while still getting the drums. Also it creats rhthym parellilsm with 02:56:429 (1) - which are both held notes and in this sense equal.
03:17:858 (1,2,3,1,2,3) - Too many repeat sliders for the amount of build up intensity imo
There seem to be alot of inconsistency in similar parts with different rhythm though I am not a professional when it comes to normals

tbh theres kinda too much overlaps even tho i kno its like 4/1 buts its still kinda taxing for new players to read idk - not really confusing i think. i used the same positions of previous notes repeatedly, but nothing like overlaps.
also im kinda confused on where you're focusing at,sometimes you focus on vocal and suddenly you focus on the drums/snares/idk - focus on whatever is most prominent is how i roll tbh. always worked for me.
01:12:500 (3) - nc since the girl strts talking again in here - applied
01:35:804 - y dont put a note here,feels kinda fitting if you put a note here tbh - trying to play it safe and avoid issues that involve spinner gap on lower diffs. if a BN/QAT specifically says thats its fine to map this, ill do it.
01:41:965 (3,1) - feel kinda clunky for new players to play - changed the angle
02:07:679 (2,3,1) - why didnt you make it straight like what u did w 02:08:750 (2,3,1) - n 02:09:822 (2,3,1) - as much as i love straight sliders, i feel even this part would feel too stiff if i didnt add something to BREAK THE SNOW
02:12:500 (3,4) - would be better if you can try to blanket this but idk doesnt rlly look like possible - its possible, and i just fixed it. hoo hah!
02:43:572 (1,2,3,1,2,3,4) - kinda feels weird that you only put a long reverse slider (1/1 1/2 idk) 02:43:572 (1) - in a part with the same sound repeated several times - if i kepy with the 1/1+1/2, it would feel repetitive as all hell, and definately not exciting to play.
03:00:715 (1,2) - parts like this are better if mapped like this imo - id be ignoring alot of drum kicks if i did that. drums take more priority than the synth imo.

02:06:072 (1,2) - why not use the actual 1/3 rhythm here should not cause any problems if placed correctly it's a normal step it up (and that of a 230bpm song at that) - it felt like using 1/3 in a 230 bpm song would be too fast (rhythm wise anyway). Like ermahgerd so sudden yo!
02:26:429 (1,2,3,4) - this embodies alot less intensity than 02:24:286 (1,2,3,4) - ... make them the same, vocally speaking the same stuff is happening - they are though? i mean sure the repeat is in different places but thats because of the vocals.
02:26:429 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4) - Why are those the same rhythms while the second combo totally changes up vocals and increases intensity - changed it up a bit.
02:57:500 (3) - I think a reverse silder would be a better way of capturing the long held sound as the player is not pressing anything while still getting the drums. Also it creats rhthym parellilsm with 02:56:429 (1) - which are both held notes and in this sense equal. - it would feel to repetitive if i did that, no?

02:44:643 (2,3) - Considering how this has been expressed before in the song, i feel like consistency in rhythm choices would help a new player more than having changes just to make it feel new, it would make more sense to me to use this change in the last kiai rather than here.

naming our diff easy is going to make people complain about there not being enough recovery time on the spinner btw
How about naming BNH's Normal Normal and the Hard diff advanced?

On behalf of HappyRocket, a circle at the end of two-pre kiai spinners were removed to accommodate for the recovery time on Easy.
New HQ background since the old one was LQ apparently (requires redownload) (also thank you Anxient)
Spread is more balanced now with Anxient's Normal introduced.
Diff names are acceptable according to Desperate-kun-san.

Congrats on qualify, kroytz, too bad some people shiirn have to try and take your accomplishment and use it for their own attention.
can you people stop trying to slit each other's throats verbally
thanks
the comments about this version of the song are unnecessary, if you like another version of this more map it
why do people have to be so needlessly provocative
what do both sides gain from one baiting the other really hard and the other one wanting to kill the other one like really
if you have stuff to say about the map then actually say it instead of provoking nonsense
don't just derail the thread completely for your own purposes thanks

Kroytz do you think it would be possible to 'keysound' vocaloids? Taking seperate sounds and just assigning hitsounds to them? Pretty pointless but it would be pretty funny to see. Gratz on requalification, hope it sticks through D:
uh i guess i missed something from raikozen aka graveyard mapper for relax mod
the reason why u responded that offensively, is that shiirn was 200% right about this mapset
objectively, this mapset is getting ranked only because theres a lot way more shit maps got ranked in past year, so considering things like Quaver or Haitai, this one isnt that bad, lets be honest here.
tho i like this map (for warmup with relax, cuz most of stuff in top 2 diffs isnt intuitive and it basically fucks your right hand).

gj on ranked again, can I just ask a question about your Extreme?
02:44:108 (5,6,1) - Why did you choose to cut the spacing in half on these jumps?
For the other kiai sections the jumps in this section tend to be increasing on 5,6 with the exception of 01:45:179 (5,6) - . But this is the only spot where distances decreases on this syllable. Either interpretation is fine for either following the syllables or the vocal volume, but it's a bit odd to have both.
6,1 is also half the size of the other jumps which doesn't make too much sense. You made the jump of 6,1 relatively larger on both the 1st and 3rd repetition of this part, which matches the change in chord on large white tick. But here the spacing is smaller? Doesn't make too much sense to me here.
