I approve of this massively.
Agreed, unfortunately I know nothing about mapping for other game modes so it'll be up to someone else to get the ball rolling there[ Scarlet Red ] wrote:
I like this idea. I feel like if this were created for every gamemode equally osu! would be less about specifically standard since it'd give a nice opening to all gamemodes through the career mode! STAR
That's understandable, but I don't think it's a reason not to try. It's never going to suit everyone, But at least it might suit the majority.NightNarumi wrote:
I like this idea a lot actually, but I am a bit skeptical about the whole manner of selecting/making maps for this career mode so it will fit the likings of everyone.
Like a map with a certain song genre that can be potentially detestable for one person to the point that said person loses his motivation for playing said map for progress (yea srry, I am not the best in explaining things)
It's going, slowly. I'm on hold for a little bit because I entered UKT Spring so I spend most my time practicing for that, but once that's over I'll be back at it.Blankz_ wrote:
100% support this. Anyone have any idea of the progress on this?
i've got a bunch of classmates who've seen me play osu but as far as i know have never played. i could also test and help if i need to, since i considered myself a new player up until about half a year ago.PsYcHo96 wrote:

It'll take a while, because I'm having to test every little thing since I'm a bit far removed from the new player experience at this point. Finding people that have never played osu! before that are willing to try it takes a bit of time. I've done the first 2 chapters (1-2* and 2-3* range) with 14 maps total, 3rd (3-4*) is in progress, but as I said I'm not working on it much while I practice for UKTS.
I haven't released anything so far just because I haven't felt any need to at this stage. Once I pass the 4* range I'll be looking for people already in the community to test from that point onwards, so that's probably when I'll go public with this properly. Before I do that I'll need to put a system in place for modding/contributions that keeps things organised so other mappers can start helping if they want to.
There's a lot to do, but it's getting done, slowly.
For the public 'reveal' I'll be setting up forms for playtesting and feedback, from that point onwards we can't have too many people, new and old, running through it and giving their opinion. So this will be 100% appreciated. Right now, however, I don't have any system in place to make 3rd party testing useful. I'm just spectating my friends playing the maps to get an idea of how the difficulty curve needs to change and what things are frequently tripping people up. So yeah, keep an eye out. I'll be trying to make it as easy as possible for anyone to give it to a friend along with a link where they can submit feedback, be that a 'professional' opinion from other mappers or just a 'I got stuck on this song, it's too hard' from complete noobsxenonius wrote:

i'm willing to go outside and ask people in the library to test this just for this to happen.
