Oh yes, I really like this idea. I often forget about changing the mode before starting, and people would tend to join my games and try to download the song I was just listening to, so it would be great to have these options while creating a game~ Support from me!

I ran out of stars.

You can already set the map before creating the room iirc, since it's the map you're listening to at that momment.
The choose mode upon room creation idea would be nice tho

Well I know that, but wouldnt it be nicer to do it right then and there? I figured the beatmap thing might not go through, but the mode thing I would like the most.

Pretty useful, but how useful is it really? Once you make the room you have an option available to change the actual mode.
Initially (for the first few seconds) there will be people who will become confused as to what mode or what map will be played once you change it. After you pick the song and the mode, everything will be made clear to all the players in your room. Usually, picking the song shouldn't take too long if you made the room yourself anyways. Some people will leave the room if they don't want to play that map or mode.

Do most people make a multiplayer room without an idea of a song to play?

If you have a large variety of maps and take a while to pick maps, thats the people who usually dont know. I know alot of people who take a while to pick. Sometimes I take a while, and people get aggrevated. I dunno just HOW many people wouldn't know what to pick, but it'd be much more user friendly and alot less time would be wasted. Thank you for your feedback ^^

I totally agree with this, i sometimes have a song I do not want to be playing when I make a multi room, and pressing random doesnt yield results as much as id want it to. Other times the song is right but the difficulty isnt, and this idea would help with both.

The difficulty thing is a bother too, I totally didnt think of that :o

This is a really cool idea! You should totally try it out! :)

Go Play > Solo > Pick map > back > hit the stop button on the osu! playlist > Play > Multi > Create room > Magic!
Or if anything you can just select a song on the osu! playlist before creating the room...

Sakura - But that still doesen't pick the mode and play type. Just the song.
Gabi
uhh, no this is completely unnecessary since it can be done within seconds after creating the room anyway.

:U But it's something that's in so many other multiplayer games and game making menus, Im not sure why it's NOT in it. But, I'll respect your opinion. Thank you for looking at it, I guess ^^;

wrong, its not completely unnecessary, if when you make a room and its set to play osu! mode and 5 people come right in, then you change it to taiko / ctb and they all leave, that can be a bother, this could prevent that from happening, all together its only more convenient. i think it would be pretty nifty.

:( I wish this wouldve had more discussion and less promote chain. :l
theMikeAG
This idea = Gold. I hate it when people pop into my room while I'm choosing the song. Especially when they start downloading the song >:( .

Here's another idea. Maybe we could also pick our mods before making a room? I've joined rooms where the host turns on Hard Rock seconds after I arrive and it drives me crazy.

I'm supporting this, I just wish I had a star. >_<
MDuh
Totally unnecessary..
you guys are scared of ppl leaving on your room for not having your desired song, mode and mods at the moment you create your room

You can just select the your desired song and diff to play in solo then go to multi and create the room - Song and Diff problem solved
then for 5~10 secs you can just select your mod and the mode(taiko or CTB, since osu standard is default)

was that so hard? >:3

How is it exactly TOTALLY unnecessary? Every other game has it. It just seems like it's something that it should already have, instead of inconveniencing people.

This Thread, in a nutshell

Supporters: We would love to have this! It would be very convenient :)
AntiSupporters: This is totally unnecessary.
Supporters: Why?
AntiSupporters: :? Because... you're stupid. >:(
Supporters: :o
I love how nobody's posted a legitimate reason to NOT have this.

i like this idea~~
i would star but ran out

I go with the "mode" part, which you can select the game mode prior to actually creating the room.

The song part doesn't seem to make a big change.

I'll give a star out anyway

This goes along with all the other requests that take under 10 seconds to manually do.

You lazy mofo V:
Karuta-_old_1
At first glance I would have agreed.
But unlike other games, you can leave the room in a matter of seconds with nothing to lose and join a room in a matter of seconds where there are people who don't mind waiting.
It's a relief that there's no such thing such as winning rate which shouldn't exist in all rhythmic games.

With things being so convenient, this feature may not be neccessary.
Autonom
seems unnecessary to me as well. like other people already said: you can choose the map before you create the room in solo and you can change the other options within 10 seconds. and what's the problem with people leaving your room? the same people who leave after a song is choosen will not join if you choose the song before you create the room, ending up with the same amount of people.
DJKero
The second one looks like better...

And in my opinion... there would be great to CAN Filter OSU/Taiko/CTB Maps if you want, and not by Default, because there so many X Maps that works in other modes... but some have glitches... like the DJMax Technika (Technika PlayStyle Modded)... in other modes than osu they get a bit weird...

and obviously Head to Head, Team, Coop, Team Coop WORKING for every Play Mode... not just in 1 or 2... in ALL...

Thanks for reading ... :3

You weren't a BAT like 8 months ago.

Anyways, there's still the problem that you can't pick the modes and other things.

I know it's just a simple inconvenience and something that can be done upon making it, but I feel like it would make life so much easier if it was added.

And lol 9 months this has been up =w=
Sakura
I thought of an idea, since you can already set the beatmap before going to multiplayer, why the room doesnt default to the current filter you're using on your room search (osu!, taiko, ctb) all modes filter would default to osu! as well.
YodaSnipe
Why is it that everytime someone comes up with a great new feature, Sakura Hana finds some stoopid way of saying no. Typically with a "Work around" method. Seriously, go away. No one wants what your suggesting, because if they did, they would have already done so.
mathexpert
I think while not completely necessary (there are ways around it that would achieve the same effect), this feature would overall make osu! a more polished game.

Words out of my mouth.
Just small little convenience I would've like when I was playing multiplayer today.
