What speed do you play in and why?
I have looked at a couple threads on this discussion to find that most people play at 1.5 speed or 2.35, which BLOWS me away because I find the notes are Too bunched up together and slow
Am I doing something wrong? Should I avoid fullscreen if I slow down my speed? Also my FPS is at 200 and changing it hasn't impacted much. If you guys are wondering my comfortable speed it's about 2.65-2.8 which some people say is fast... I'm just curious as I want to read the notes better because the highest I've been able to do for awhile'ish is Very Challenging up to 65. (With some parts mashing) Edit: I might need to experiment more, but 2.4-2.6 might be somewhere good for me. |
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
At framerates above 60fps you can start to get some issues in having flash actually process your inputs properly, so you might want to consider trying 55 or 59fps which seem to be magic numbers for some people.
As for scroll speed, it is a very subjective and personal thing. Generally speaking, the higher skill rating you are, the higher you are apt to want the speedmod in order to process the patterns cleanly, by spreading them out. I play on 2.2 IIRC Edit: Looking at your stats, while you are passing songs up in the 60s, your skill rating for getting really good clean scores looks to be more in the 35-40 range, so you might actually get better results working on overall accuracy on songs in the 43-53 range for now rather than try to push your way into passing even harder songs. Working on building good muscle memory and pattern recognition on songs you can SDG or at least cleanly FC with no misses or boos prepares you better for harder songs than working on passing songs you can't read cleanly and execute cleanly. |
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
2.5 because people peer pressured me that 2x was too slow
|
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
3x-4x usually, depends on the song
|
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
2.72 because i read it gud
|
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
but if YOU read your speed fine thats what you should stick with. 2.65-2.8 isnt fast at all and its very normal
|
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
personally i play somewhere between 2.8-3 Generally i think its the fastest speed you can comfortably read is the best one to go with. Its also worth playing with the size of the notes and spacing of the receptors. If you need to slow down the speed of the notes, but still think they are too clumped up, making the notes smaller can really help.
|
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
2.8.
Used to play on 2.6 for the longest time, but started to get really good accuracy so I swapped to 2.8 and somehow D7'd. Been 2.8 since. 3.0 is poop accuracy for me. |
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
I'm gonna give you a hot tip: it doesn't matter, play what's most comfortable for you. Players at the top level for this game use vastly different scroll speeds. There are other factors which help influence what speed works best for you.
Fwiw I use 2.1-2.3, which are pretty slow scroll speeds, but I look directly at the receptors when I'm playing. There are other players around my skill level that use speedmods above 3, who likely look much lower than I do. It's really just personal preference, your scroll speed isn't a limiting factor to how well you can play unless you're using something that isn't working for you personally. |
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
2.65 i believe. i played a bit faster on legacy engine but its impossible on AIR haha
But yeah, what OWA said. speed doesnt matter, just find a comfortable speed and get used to it. Haku and others play songs above 80 rating on 1 speed so its possible if you learn to read it. It takes time for sure no matter what speed you use but its worth it in the end! |
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
For me, I play on 2.25 because it feels like a good balance for me and one I'm most used to.
|
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
I play with 2.94, but my scroll speed has fluctuated quite a bit since I started playing.
To add to what others have said, don't feel compelled to stay stuck at a particular speed. Your comfort zone might change depending on your experience and how you feel that day when you play. Also try with messing with the judge offset in the game settings. Judge offset helps a ton with improving accuracy! Turn the 'Auto' option on so that the judge offset can be automatically adjusted to your precision, general accuracy and the songs you play. |
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
Between 2.3 and 2.6 depending on what I'm playing.
|
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
Thanks ya'll, I have the auto option turned on for judging. So in the end I will stick to what is comfortable, I will play more easier songs although I do balance the difficulty I play and keep replaying the harder songs on occasion until I get better! As for my framerate, it hasn't caused any judging problems.
For more info, I've been using the R^3AIR.exe Client to play maximized. ^_^ |
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
I use 2.6 scroll speed and have been told in some cases my speed is too slow x) like everyone says though just use what is comfortable for you
|
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
consider that it also depends on ur visual settings and note skin and stuff... i use higher speed but i also use smaller notes/receptors, so its not as fast as it'd normally be with default settings
for example hakulyte has an alt http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/profile/hakue where he only uses speed mod x1 lol, and hes like D6 on it with 1377 AAAs, so it really depends on ur preference and settings (also he uses screen cut a tonnn when he 1x which sort of gives the effect of a higher speed) |
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
I'm d6 level 90 and I play with 1.25-1.3 scroll speed.
I use a high screencut though so it's basically like hitting notes off reflex. |
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
I use 2.8x, It kinda translated over from me using 26-28 on osu!mania to being the right scroll speed for me.
I seriously don't understand how people can play at stuff below 2 or even 2.2 especially at a high level, its literally just a screen filled with 100 notes 3 pixels apart |
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
Anything goes once you memorize all the notes.
Apparently I was using 3x the last time I played. |

Screencutting makes it wayyyyyyyyy more tolerable though. |
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
Well, something weird happened, and now I can't see notes properly of how I used to play, around speed 3....
2.6x already seems really fast, and this came up from waking up one morning where I preferred slow speeds.... Has this like, happened to ANYONE? |
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
I just started to play using 55 FPS (seems the most stable in my situation) and I go between 3x-3.5x depending on how I'm physically feeling. Last I played, I was using 3.1x.
|
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
Living off the devil's land by playing 60 fps
Also using 2.4x speed, though it is considered slow for most of the top players probably. So far nothing unusual or any problems about playing around this level with these settings that would concern me |
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
59 FPS at 2.5 scroll speed. whenever i set to 60 it lags a lot for some reason lol
|
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
60fps at 3.1x
It's the closest to C950 I can get |
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
2.685
|
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
I use 3.4 at 55 fps.
|
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
10.0
Jk. 2.75 but I go back and fourth between 2.50 and 2.75. But lately I feel like it's been going by too slow so idk. I might have to mess around with something a bit higher |
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
Back when Byron used to be a thing I think I played on around 2.7 or 2.6 or somethin around that; 100 FPS. I'm still angery they got rid of Byron version.
I used 2.45x 60 FPS now but I might change that back to 59-55 FPS like was said earlier. In the VERY VERY early days, though, I'd play with 1.5x and 30 FPS so I'm super glad I started bumpin up the speed cuz omfg my old replays are unbearable. |

Re: What speed do you play in and why?
2.7x 240hz/240fps
|
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
2.5x Speed.
|
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
3,1x at 60fps. Best for me :D
|
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
i used to use 3.2 at one point, then switched over to 2.7 where i was comfortable
but now i use 1.9 after the re-release of byron |
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
2.425! It's odd but I used to play on 1.925 on Velocity engine.
As for the why: it was just the speed mod I was most comfortable on after plenty of tinkering and adjusting. |
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
I use 3.5 with 59 fps to avoid Internal V-sync.
|
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
I would play on 1.85 (1.5-1.75 if I had been drinking) With a light lanecover/screencut, covering roughly 35% of the field
Slow speeds because I like my comfort zone, its safe and helps me sleep at night. |
Re: What speed do you play in and why?
2.65, a lot slower than i would expect now that i think about it
