Well, if anyone still cares, USA just lost to Chile http://osu.ppy.sh/mp/372799.

I didn't entirely choke this time, but everyone in USA broke on that one slider on Lemon Tree = autofail.

So, has anyone else every tried playing with hitsounds muted?

I've been surprised to find that, since I started doing this, my accuracy has actually gone up drastically. It's much easier to follow the song's actual rhythm when your own mistakes aren't creating a second rhythm that competes for attention.

i found out good players use keyboard keys Z and X to play instead of clicking. mindfucked...its supposed to be easier at the fast streams than clicking furiously with your index finger i guess.

would appreciate some too. i esp have huge problems with overlapping sliders esp when one or more sliders are very short return thingies. its (imo) impossible to see what i should do and some situations i still dont know what to do even after trying that part like 20 times.



also most of the 5star ones seem to be pretty much a big grind to remember evrything exactly where/when/what pops up. am i right on this or are there really people that somehow hit stuff perfectly when they have like 0,3secs to see what they hve to do?

Practice... it sounds like you're having difficulty "reading" maps. As you play more you'll be able to recognize where notes are extremely quickly. Unless the map is really unusual, you shouldn't have to memorize it to pass.

One problem with Osu's difficulty ranking system is that everything above a certain difficulty becomes 5 star. That means that 5 star maps vary from slightly harder than 4.5 star maps to extremely difficult. Basically, 5 star is a whole new game, and to pass 5 star maps you need to learn how to hit with multiple buttons, get used to relatively fast approach rates, and be capable of much faster jumps than you ever did before. If it's sightreading you're having difficulty with though, I don't know of any solution except practice.

I'm awful at reading maps with high approach rate too... I don't understand how people like AR 10.

Oh right, tips...
1. TURN OFF MOUSE ACCELERATION. I cannot emphasize this enough. I played for months with mouse acceleration on. Turn it off.
2. Use zx. At least I find it easier than mouse clicking, although there are some very good players who use only mouse.
3. Don't play maps you can S, at least in the beginning. Sing maps is for increasing rank, not improving.
4. Practice a lot (if you have time for that x_x, fml, etc)

How do you set things to use ZX for "clicks" anyway? I'm thinking I'll stick with playing mouse only but I might try ZX. I did play stepmania and a couple other music games so I'm used to hitting keys to the beat of music...
