you can earn pp

osu! is about to undergo an agricultural revolution as players begin farming pp in lazer. if you don't want to be a cave dweller anymore, it's time to try lazer for yourself: osu.ppy.sh/home/download
by the way. you can earn pp in lazer now.
listen to peppy (the lead developer of osu!) and pishifat (qualifications pending) talk about the current caveats of pp in lazer and the rest of lazer's recent updates.

[@luckfire]

after playing on the lazer client only for almost pretty much all of the 2nd half of 2023, amazing to finally see pp being enabled -- even if leaderboards have a chance to reset, just makes me hyped. i personally enjoy lazer over stable more. all the changes to lazer just makes the game overall more enjoyable to me, some aspects feel more rewarding in a sense. thank u osu team for your efforts 🎉

[@Someone-ov1ro]

I like lazer but I'm hesitant to switch over because of slider acc lol

[@sheepcommander_]

I started playing OSU in January, and i switched to lazer in feb. I love lazer :D

[@luckfire]

@@Someone-ov1ro i say give it a shot. if you don't like it, the great thing is you can always go back to stable! imo it's worth getting used to but that's just a personal feeling; having to hit sliders more accurately feels more rewarding to me, especially when before i did everything in my power to cheese a lot of them

[@sean12444]

im both very excited and hesitant as a player who mains multiple modes, imo lazer for standard feels soooo much better than stable and i cant see any reason not to switch, but mania feels a lot worse, especially with the lack of an accessible skin.ini to change major skin elements like the positioning of the columns, the judgement line, the judgement text position, etc, theres just too much you cant do with the skin editor to make it playable for me, and importing from stable doesnt seem to always work correctly

[@sheepcommander_]

@@sean12444 oooo mania community needs to make more issues

[@sinom]

Instead of a "lazer mode" toggle it should probably be the opposite and there should be a "legacy mode"

[@rekunan]

That'll prob happen when you can choose lazer as an update option in the stable client.

[@Ocklepod]

only makes sense once lazer scores are actually not subject to potential reset anymore.

[@OrangeC7]

I feel like a legacy mode toggle would be sending mixed messages, since osu!stable is still treated like the official version of osu! for now; It would be calling out people who still use stable. Once osu!lazer starts being treated as opt-out instead of opt-in, it would make more sense

[@amirulaiman8673]

perhaps "osu! classic" mode would make more sense

[@Draegeon]

5:14 "a pp-hungry audience" huehue

[@SeanIsAFatty]

Peppy wasn't lieing about the last time the database went down for critical maintenance. 1st of April, 2014. I have a video where I set an SS on a stream map posted on the 1st, and I raged because it was while bancho was down, and no score submissions were possible. Amazing he actually remembered that far back.

[@mark220v]

for mania: dt doesn't multiply score, it makes map have higher star rate, so you still gain much more pp for dt.

[@helpmepleasee5797]

well yes but it's still more difficult than playing it nm so it should give more score since it's more effort but idk i don't play mania

[@oventree]

@@helpmepleasee5797 it absolutely shouldn't

[@degenera7039]

​@@helpmepleasee5797 nope, mania score cap should always stay 1mil no matter what.

[@NotAghostSpeedruns]

@@helpmepleasee5797 I've only dabbled in mania, but my impression is that 1,000,000 being the best possible score is something that mania players like. Having 320s give bonus score above 1 million was also unpopular iirc.

[@amariX.]

​@@NotAghostSpeedrunsYeah. I like mania having that 1M cap, it felt weird being able to just apply DT and pass everyone who didn't use DT. I know it makes it harder, but in standard the 1M is like the master, you mastered and played perfectly. No other mod gives extra score, so DT shouldn't as well.

This is amazing news! There's only one thing I dont like which is that the appearance of the song select section in Lazer can't be changed with skins.

[@LynKazoyuu]

Soon maybe

[@JustVldKsh]

MFC and PFC stand for Marvelous and Perfect Full Combo respectively, it comes from DDR/Stepmania where top two judgements are called like that and also have the respective full combo types too in regards to mania, MFC is a million (all rainbow 300) and PFC is Score v1 SS respectively but other people definitely already said that so idk why i wrote this

[@cheshire1]

In classic osu standard, dropping a slider end won't break your combo but you do miss out on one combo point. This means that you can finish the map without combo breaks and still not have the maximum possible combo. In this context a PFC refers to actually getting the maximum possible combo and a "normal" FC means no combo breaks.

[@sczer]

Really don't know how to feel about the new logo though. It looks good with the O being like a hit circle and especially the small one on the website looks super clean but still... It's different now and that will def take some getting used to.

[@gladand]

[@HDFlood_]

"There's a lot of different meanings for 'Full Combo' in the community and apparently there's, like, a PFC and an MFC? I didn't even know MFC stands for but it was all just too much for me" got a dumb laugh out of me as I realised how many abbreviations and terms we've coined as VSRG players across different rhythm games that so many others in the rhythm game community get lost in the sauce regardless It reminded me of how PIU has different classifications for combo clear types being "All Combo (AC)" and "Full Combo (FC)" because a judgement didn't break combo but it also didn't raise combo

[@YsterYuki]

PIU doesn't tell you with AC or FC indicators either. On the previous mix (XX) S rank meant no misses and no/very few bads. Now, below your grade you get accolades based on your judgements. If MISS+BAD=0 then you get an "all combo" and its associated accolade.

I also really miss seeing people when they die and revive, the system of just dying and staying dead is boring.

I'm a little confused, maybe I missed it in the video, but knowing that classic mode scores will be worth less in terms of score, how about pp? Will stable pp remain the same with Lazer pp being worth more due to sliderhead acc, or will Lazer pp essentially replace stable pp with classic mode pp being worth less now, meaning all current stable scores will be nerfed?

[@NneonNTJ]

[@know_how_games]

I have only played Lazer due to me playing on Linux and having difficulty using wine and Lazer just being a lot easier to install.
