Mr.Helix: We are the future

[@capsaicin5332]

@@kuzan_aokiji Mr Helix didn't really do anything new though, storyboard mapping had been around for years, he had already made both Aleph-0 and disconnected hardkore in 2018, and pikaquims Aleph-0 was from even earlier than that. Time traveler was really just a polishing of the mapping style

[@Koubles]

@@capsaicin5332 That's true. I think he's paved the way for storyboard maps to be the main way to express creativity in osu mapping though. His maps are super interesting and the storyboard elements allow him to build on top of osu to create an experience of playing the map that is beyond breaking the game for cool effect. Like for instance his most recent map essentially being a whole new rhythm game in its own right beyond osu with how the storyboards are done. And it seems like a lot of aspire maps are heading in that direction too, like with the one ctb map where you have to dodge the space invaders, essentially making a whole new gamemode within osu.

[@capsaicin5332]

@@Koubles yeah, they're cool and make it funky now is a really good map, but I really hope that isn't the way aspire maps go since its becoming less and less new every year. The point of aspire is to push boundaries and create something truly innovative, and storyboard maps are becoming stale. I hope more aspire maps take inspiration from XNOR since that is true creativity and the innovation that pishi was saying was missing from the later aspires.

[@Koubles]

@@capsaicin5332 I don't think all aspire maps will go that way, but I do think that a large porion will transition over simply because of the diversity and different mechanics a SB map can create vs regular mapping. Maybe we'll see a divide in the two map-types competing against eachother to make the best map.

[@oneirescence]

Can anyone tell me the black and white skin used at 8:54?

[@Karxy]

It’s a gimmick skin from one of pishi’s maps. Whenever objects are spaced far apart the follow points are a giant white image so you can switch “background” colors without a storyboard. It’s not an full skin yet as far as I know.

[@KingQuetzal]

I've had an idea for a map for a while now. Make a bunch of difficulties that are based on screen size, aspect ratio, and distance from the screen. Place notes only in the eye's natural blind-spots.

[@sonichaven]

I've never seen that second aspire winner before. I've seen and thought of using sliders to animate before, but that butterfly is something far beyond that.

[@fractured_soul]

Im surprised you didn t talk about time traveler from knower ? Where you have to olay the notes backwards from how they appear , and a section forces you the heal the health bar and give you 100% score weather you missed notes or not It even force change skin of the game in the level 2 times

[@MandrakeGuy]

this video is 6 years old

[@danielyuan9862]

3:25 reminds me of some of the charts on Arcaea where the charters would sometimes add crazy unconventional things like such.

[@danielyuan9862]

Now that I brought up Arcaea, one thing I felt about that game was the creativity of every different chart, which I guess is why I loved that game. Osu, definitely has that potential, since it opens creation to any player in the game, but that also means a lot of maps are going to look regular and standard.

[@Daelitegamer]

Only thing that's annoying is that some of the maps for aspire this year auto-fail you at the very end which is really annoying if you wanna save a replay of your play. :/ I get that it's a clusterfuck contest but cmon, autofailing is considered real difficulty now? >_>

[@over_loadcode]

i'm from the future, we got storyboard for a year then next year we got something new which got beaten by storyboard somehow

[@mulraf]

as many also say; what i dislike about this aspire contest is that people seem to tryhard to much. like they want to make something new or cool-looking so bad that they forget the playability. that's why my vote went to the dab map (think it was tranquil chipmunk?). it was pretty tough and had some cool elements yet it doesn't look totally impossible and very clean in relation to the other maps imho. somber ibis was good. but the end killed it a bit for me. that didn't look clean nor playable to me (while i bet many top players will be able to pass it but you get the message).

[@BitCritterSpyro]

Maybe next year, we'll get a shit ton of hold sliders with balls pulse out when ticking, like osu! stream.

[@texnonik]

wow , i didnt know that , very cool thank you for information ! So cool glitches , i even dont know what glitch or somethink will found in next year ? What about spinner that is not in middle ( you dont need rotate it in middle but somewhere else example in right up cornere ) . Two streams in one time . Spinner stream ((Slider stream simular to spinner stream )you need speen from left one time then next you need to speen spinner a bit right and so on ) .

[@texnonik]

what about standart mode that is excatually hidden mod :D . what about random placement of cirles and sliders . (( you play first time hit left hit right then mid , but when you play again its middle left and right . ) or possibilities where they can appear ). If you play with hidden its actually plays normal with out mods . ( + same with flashlight mode you can see map )

[@Nyakozame]

Too late but, Storyboard, Glitch sliderballs, and Distorted slider animation in 2018 That's in a year

[@frosted3]

I disagree with slider distortions being a legitimate aspire technique, and I'm not just saying that because I'm bitter. If you play or edit the map on Fallback mode, none of the distortions work. You only see the slider head and the first 1 or 2 slider ticks in both the kiai section and the final section with "ghost" sliders. In other words, you don't get to see anything cool, just a regular note which you can't 300. The kiai distortion section literally just looks like a regular stream stacked on the middle of the screen with floating slider ticks. The entire gimmick relies on a bug (most likely a faulty implementation of rotation incorrectly calling openGL, which is why it doesn't work on Fallback which uses DirectX), which means that it could be patched out at anytime, and that all the distortions will look like that for everyone else as well. Would you have voted for Somber Ibis if all the cool sliders had just been a single note instead?

[@SevaHacks]

[@Wx6v]

I believe that, too really reach the true potential of the Aspire mapping contest, or osu! mapping in general, we first need to wait for the actual editor to receive some crucial changes. Though I know this wouldn't be rankable, since the idea of Aspire is to get creative and fuck all the rules, some tools for that would be very useful such as the ability to change certain things that define a map in it's timing points rather than just generally. This OD, AR, etc., but most of all, allowing players to change circle size during a map. Simply giving mappers the ability to do that would allow sooo many interesting patterns to be made. Anyway what I mean is, expecting people to get creative should imply giving them the tools for M-A-X-I-M-U-M C-R-E-A-T-I-V-I-T-Y.

[@soaptastesalrightiguess7932]

I think the whole mid map CS change is a rather controversial idea... I am open to it I guess - But, it is a really really really really risky thing to do. And also, the current editor is enough to turn away A LOT of people as is... if we put anymore shiny buttons on it, we could just make it look like a space shuttle with no manual.

[@inferno3853]

[@ThePussinboots1979]

when i realise what kind of video it was "fuck"

[@ThickUP]

Why are maps with two button gameplay not rankable? I mean, it's completely playable, and a fun mechanic, are they just afraid it will be abused?

[@Voltaeyx]

The game isn't designed for 2b mapping, as evident in the inherent difficulty to map such things in the editor, the apparent unfeasible (and usually impossible) converts to any other mode, as well as the auto-fail issue that can come up.

[@JayOTwo]

Greendrago10 What's 2 button mapping?

[@Voltaeyx]

it's when any hitobjects overlap in time. The most common example is when hit circles overlap slider bodies and ends. This map does a great example of introducing the concept to players. osu.ppy.sh/s/90935

[@inferno3853]

2B should be allowed in modes like CtB
