If you're used to mouse accel then turning it off is going to do you more harm than good. If you're just starting out then it's advisable to turn off mouse accel because it makes it considerably easier to control your mouse cursor for jumps and fast songs. It's not impossible to be good at this game and use mouse acceleration though, I know of at least one person who doesnt disable it.

If you're having trouble with spinners try spinning close to the center instead of in big circles all over the place and just focus on passing it (even if with a 50 or 100 instead of 300) instead of mass spinning and going for maximum bonus. When you get a spinning motion that's comfortable for you then you can work on improving your spinner speed. Keeping your combo > getting a few thousand extra points on a spinner and losing control of your mouse and combo breaking immediately after.

Honestly, I used mice with acceleration for years before I got my DeathAdder.... After that I disabled acceleration and now HATE it. It took me a couple hours to get used to the increased sensitivity, and then it probably took me a little while to truly get a feel for no mouse accel, but now I HATE acceleration and it causes me to miss stuff all the time when I use a mouse with acceleration still on.The acceleration being off honestly barely took any time to adjust to, but makes a far larger impact when I use a mouse with it than using a mouse without the high senitivity.

WTF dude I played 3months agressively with mouse accele. Turned off, played 20 min and completed 6 different songs I had struggled for few days or weeks.

Never is too late to turn mouse accele off.
I also thought HC jumpmaps were impossible with mouse accele but who is this guy who manages to do them with accele on?

You can try laying down a soft object under your left hand for more ergonomic hovering. P I do that in some songs.


Just start practicing Hidden, anyone has advise ?

I started doing hidden mod with 'bla bla bla' (gigi dagostino)
I find this song very natural for hidden.

So has anyone picked up any micro skills from getting good at this game? I find it really challenging, and have kinda bad micro at SC2 and was wondering if its worth sinking time into this game

IMO you shouldn't start playing this game that solely in your mind. I have no idea if my micro is better in sc2 because of osu, but I doubt it is.

Well I was kind of speaking in generalizations there, typically if you're extremely used to something then any kind of change is going to mess you up (i.e. new mouse, new keyboard, switching from mouse to mouse + kb or tablet, etc). If you have success in all types of maps with mouse acceleration on then turning it off probably isn't going to affect you that much but if you are really good at most maps but can't play jump maps then obviously turning mouse acceleration off would be a good thing. All I'm trying to say is if you have a good thing going and that involves using mouse acceleration then why change that?

And the player is Gabi, iirc he still uses mouse acceleration.

I play with mouse acceleration as It would literally take 4 months to re-learn this game if I switched. I tried for about a week in December and it was absolutely terrible; I couldn't even do 3 stars. So like MegamaneExe said, it can get so ingrained in you that changing would be very difficult. And honestly, re-learning this game for 4 months rather than improving would drive me insane and would remove and incentive to play this game.

I could use a touchpad, with the game window somehow moving around the screen, and still pass 3 star maps. Mouse acceleration must really mess with your mind.

Pretty sure he was joking... Which is why I didn't say the same thing you did there.

It gets worse if you look at the top100 list.

The majority of the votes comes from players that spend all their time on irc and osu forums anyways and they're horrible at the game. This also means very few votes were made by japanese and korean players.

You guys should do a best of 2011 right here.
I'd love to see what maps TL liked. I have a few maps that I really like from the past year, and i'm sure if enough votes are taken into consideration we can come up with a TL top10 or top15 best maps of 2011 :D

Lol, I was like "whoo, maybe I can find some fun maps from this" and checked out one from the list.

*insert huge streams*

"Oh, well, there are always duds in a list. The next one will be better."

*even bigger streams*

"Hmmm, jeez. Hey, there's a song I think I liked before! (looking at youjou pop) Looks like I haven't done the highest difficulty though, lets try that."

*streamed to death after ~20 of good mapping*


I think I disagree with what most people consider good maps, lol. You can get triplets, quints, up to7 or 9 note spams and be ok, but when you have 120 notes in a row you're not being very fun, you're just tiring out peoples fingers. And it doesn't help that for faster songs I can't physically hit my keys fast enough to keep up with the spams. xD

But I do agree with number 1 anyway, gold dust was very well done.
