Re: Losing fc, this should get fixed

Could always just switch the scoring from total score to the raw score.

That's actually not a bad idea lol

Combo should be worth something though.

Re: Losing fc, this should get fixed

A proper scoring metric needs to take into account all functions of skill:

-Endurance (length of song)
-Combo
-Overall accuracy
-Difficulty of patterns
-Speed of patterns

That completely discounts combo. It sounds like a good idea for elite players who play dominantly on PA, but it's a huuuuge disadvantage to those with Vista/Win7 who aren't allowed to have good PA by their OS.

Um.....Im on Windows 7, whats are you trying to say? And I played on Vista as well for the longest time and got my first two FMO's with it.

Yes being straight raw score isnt the way to go, but including combo in it to where it is dramatically taking over the score should be how it works.

Hello guys I already solved the problem for yall

Re: Losing fc, this should get fixed

@Plan_B Really? Because I can't get under 30 goods on 9s with my vista/win7, but I've AAAd over 45 10s with my XP.

You must have special computers (or like 3 million TB of RAM)

Re: Losing fc, this should get fixed

How about just take raw score and make misses remove 3 times more points than they do now.

[MrMagic5239]

Re: Losing fc, this should get fixed

You would have make boos decrease more as well, considering, that would just encourage more mashing I'd think.

[wargasm1]

Re: Losing fc, this should get fixed

Why would there be more mashing if scores arent 90% dependant on combo like they are now?

People mash now cause it is profitable to mash rather than just pa. I wish i could just play those gurus and get good pa on them, i'd probly get decent ranks, but everyone mashed them and its impossible for me to get a good score if i dont mash fc them.

[MrRubix]

Re: Losing fc, this should get fixed

Mashing would naturally harm a score under the right metrics due to the utter **** it'd deliver to the accuracy portion. Problem solves itself.

Only mash the hard parts. You'll get a better score than someone who just mashed the whole song. lol @ the purpose of this thread slowly straying off-topic.

Re: Losing fc, this should get fixed

I agree with rubix. Now we just have to rewrite the code for NSane so he doesn't get overwhelmed. ;]

Any idea how it would work?

[MrRubix]

Re: Losing fc, this should get fixed

The code is piss-easy. We already know how score is calculated:

1000*(your max combo) + 550*(your perfects) + 275*(your goods) + 55*(your averages) - 270*(your misses) - 30*(your boos)

That's about it. Just an equation processed somewhere in the Flash code.
