Then at least rename this to "scoreV2 testing rournament" because this has nothing to do with "finding out whos truly the best".
You're bringing up a score system that raises the value of combo and then force the usage of HR on maps that are already all about acc.

I really have to hold back from plain insulting everyone here right now, simply because of the lack of arguments

Raw skill will always edge out in the end. And there is nothing wrong with score v2 except the multipliers which might need some more adjusting (going to test some things out and make a post later today).
And if you want to go into insulting because there are actually people who disagree with you, then I think I should just stop posting. Not worth it.

That's why I'm not doing it. I don't say scoreV2 is bad overall, I actually like it. It's just (as you said yourself) that the mod multipliers are completely ridiculous so I just don't see the point in involving them into a World championship.

If you want me to stop posting, then provide a single solid argument, because

1. "it's too late now" is just the result of not giving an argument for a long enough time
2. "we need to test v2 somewhere" has nothing to do with an official tournament.
3. "raw skill will edge out in the end" is plain wrong (/u/lEdelWeiss and me are the perfect example: He has excellent accuracy which is why have no chance on easy maps against him, while I usually beat him on hard maps. Now who's the better one?)

Still wanna know why that post was deleted.

"Raw skill will edge out in the end is plain wrong" is plain wrong, because neither you nor the person you reference is really at the end. You forgot to take the limits. (Jakads: hope you pardon my savage, but) even jakads and j<beep> is not in the end.

Ok forget that example i made. Though i have trouble understanding yours...

From my point of view, the single argument against your "rage posts" (posts containing rage) at the current time could be:

1. Just don't rage due to the fact that this is a dev test ground with prizes.

There is no argument against you posting ordinary non-rage posts at the current time. I think you're still welcomed in this discussion as long as you do not express rage; for example, I like to read your post in the scorev2 thread.

Also, respect privacy rights of other people. I would exercise caution when I post chat logs, for example.

2. "we need to test v2 somewhere" has nothing to do with an official tournament. If you make a new weapon, testing it on a shooting range will not give you enough data about it, you need to test it in actual combat (even if improvised). That's exactly the case here, the format is being tested in practice to see how well it does and to take lessons from it so it can be refined and polished for the next one.
3. "raw skill will edge out in the end" is plain wrong (/u/lEdelWeiss and me are the perfect example: He has excellent accuracy which is why have no chance on easy maps against him, while I usually beat him on hard maps. Now who's the better one?) EdelWeiss has a raw skill advantage on easier stages and you have on later stages, in a tournament setting that makes you equal assuming that the diffrences between you are similar. Teams consist of 6 players, if you have players who can do good and edge out opposition on specific stages, then they are still going to win even with those new rules. As stated before (somewhere): the world champions should be able to play absolutely everything by themselves or as a team.

Sorry if my arguments are not good enough btw, I have trouble forming them at this hour (also my mind is more on the mappicking and other various stuff atm)

Oh so that's why. Yeah forgot about that.

As Kamikaze said we will do some testings tomorrow to see what can we do. I still think changing stuff now is a nope for the low amount of time that we do have but worth the shot.

How about if you also try to give some data and input related to that? Like people already said, your post was just some images telling how bad this is without real arguments and if I have to guess thats why it was deleted.

We will see what do we find tomorrow

Somewhat tangential, but also somewhat related... is there going to be anyway to play/practice on Score v2 outside of multiplayer before the tournament? I find this to be a bit of a hurdle for getting accustomed to the new changes, and I don't particularly enjoy having to play with others when I want to practice on my own. I can't control my targeted sessions that way. =/

Not only that, you have to be a er as well.
It should be possible to start a MP match by yourself, and Score V2 should be included in the stable release. Other than that, it is very hard to prepare well for the matches.

Nope, scoreV2 is also available on the beta stream which is free for everyone.

Just tested it, didn't work (I might've messed up something tho, idk, needs confirmation)

I didn't it myself, it's just what loctav said in the official scoreV2 thread t/375428

That's for std tho, mania's v2 might not be in beta yet

oh ok

ok first of all I wanna apologize for my rude behaviour, I was upset and acted carelessly.
Second, I think I mentioned enough con-arguments, but I can list the main ones again:
- since some people see visual mods as handicap while others find them helpful it would strongly depend on the type of player a country is represented by instead of their actual skill
- banning mods in the default bracket makes no sense other than upsetting players who prefer them since they can be skinned anyway so you can just leave them in
- mod multipliers are very unbalanced atm and overall yet to be discussed
- it makes no sense to give a choice between 2 mods that have different multipliers
- the absolute majority of players doesn't like this system overall (its your choice whether you make this tournament for the community or for development purposes)

I'd rather say it's your turn to give some pro-arguments. the only one I recall atm is "we need to test scoreV2 somehow", which brings us back to con-argument #5.

Also, what about the testing results you mentioned?

EDIT: btw am I allowed to pick HD/FI ADDITIONALLY in the mod bracket when I decide to pick HR?

Okay so:
#1 - That is fine in my opinion because 1) that's still a part of tactics around the tournament to either get a player to learn the mod or pick one who already can do the mod 2) people who find those mods to be helpful more often than not will struggle on nomod so you have a drawback either way

#2 - Those mods are banned (or moved to nomod rather) exactly because they can be skinned away and the effects of them can be neglected or neutralized by a decent amount. While I personally would leave FI in, that's staff's decision and I understand it

#3 - They are not yet to be discussed, they have been discussed and after I've tested some things (p/5317537 and presented it to smoogi he said the multipliers will be adjusted

#4 - That's arguable, while that is a valid point, I personally think that the harshness of the timing windows on OD10 + HR (+/- 24,5ms for 300, +/- 11,5ms for a max) warrants a slightly bigger multiplier to reward top tier accuracy more

#5 - I don't find that argument, or at least the back half of it a good excuse to just abandon all changes. People are afraid of changes, especially when you're changing something that has roots VERY deep in the community. I also can bet that half of the players hating on the changes didn't test it and just saw screens of the first version with 500k S score and other type of broken things alongside, while they may not be aware of all the changes and adjustments that have been done to v2 since then

And yes, you can use HD/FI alongside HR (since HD/FI and FL cancel out eachother) in freemod, they just count the same as nomod.

Aaah this is the kind of reply i've been looking for all the time, thank you so much
I have trouble understanding #2 though, how can visual mods be neglected via skin and why is that a reason to bann them? (since they dont give any score advantage)?

You can completely nullify the effect of cover increasing wiith combo and tbh you don't even need a skin for it, you can use your shirt, a piece of paper or whatever, and due to mods not being tied to hitposition of the skin, you can lower hitposition to the very bottom of your screen for FI and gain a lot more room to read.

I still dont understand how that would eliminate the visual handucap because your screen would still be covered. Adding a skinned cover would even increase the handicap since that way you have maximum shadow ALL THE TIME. I do understand the judgement line thing you mentioned for FI though.
But even if it was possible to completely remove the shadow and regain full vision, why is that a reason to bann the mod? Theres no advantage to it

The shadow distance is not the largest inhibitor for everyone - it's the shadow changing position that turns out to be an issue.

Oh really? Didn't know that o.O
But still, I don't see why this is a reason to bann the mod, there's still no advangage to it.

Thats why FL is easier for most people because of stable vision area so you dont need any lanecovers.

I dont know whether staff realize that FI doesnt help in reading for 99,9% people even with lanecovers about staff is scared (heh, make FL vision area combo dependent and almost everyone will make lane covers for it) and make FL as a pick in freemod bracket (with score multiplier) that is significantly easier for most people than FI (we have also FL mains) is totally absurd.

Yes, I feel better with FI than with FL because my reading is focused on top of the screen (upscroll) so FL is unplayable for me and putting FI free to pick in nomod bracket is like saying "fu*k you" to those people because they will do better without mods and automatically put them on worse position in freemod bracket.

Atm its totally favourzing players who are more capable with FL, unfortunately.

Yeah, but as long FL+HR is not playable you can always pick HR and win anyways. Yeah, it hits your accuracy but idk.

I just mean that vision mods are not balanced, people who are not able to read FL but can read other vision mods (that is FI) are automatically put in lose position.

Allowing only 1 vision mod because the rest is "broken" doesnt make sense, its fawourizig people who are able to play FL. Allow all vision mods in freemod (except HD) or disallow all of them. We want balanced tournament or not?

I'm gonna restate my request: Can you please allow the usage of HD/FI in both brackets or name a reason why you won't do it?

Edit: nvm i'm stupid

I'm pretty sure what Loctav said means you can use them in both, the only difference is that HD/FI do not satisfy the requirement of mods used in free mod. That means that you could have a team doing no mod, no mod, HR and satisfy the condition of it because of the HR player, but you can't have a team doing no mod, no mod, HD because HD is not considered eligible for qualifying for FM. One of the players would need to add either HR/FL (obviously will be HR because HD + FL = nope).

Oops you're right o.O nvm then

-Kamikaze- wrote: 713c65

FI on upscroll does the exact same thing as on downscroll. And why FI? Because FI unlike HD forces you to cut your scroll speed to about 40% just to be able to read it properly. On HD, you're using a scroll speed relatively close to your nomod scroll so it's not that hard to learn it. However FI requires a lot more practice.
Also for the "who even plays FI" question - everyone who has their focus point on the screen (the area where you look at notes) below middle and/or people who play on relatively slow scroll speed. If you have your focus point directly in the middle, FL will be better for you, but if you look lower - FI is the way. I myself prefer FI over FL actually.

surely you want to take players out of their comfort zone, however, did you know some of the players have been playing HD for many years and they will be forced to switch to nomod just because of the rules of this tournament? They will never compare with hardcore nomod players since they will not have enough time to practice or they do not have enough experience. Also if you think in the opposite way its also true as nomod players will never hit as accurate compared to pro HD players since it is not their best ability to play with such mod. This is why its not fair at all. I believe the better way to do is to release the scoreV2 however give a certain amount of time for players to adjust their skill sets (maybe a few months or even a year) so mostly everyone will be on the same level. Just my opinion.

I think having scoreV2 in official MWC would be a really fun experience, you know why? because think about the ''challenges'' you are facing as a player that way, getting everyone off their comfort zone, where everyone could have an advantage (or not) on a lot of things, it would be a truly significant experience to people in this MWC. If you're not a wuss about loosing your precious ''prize and profile badge' then this might be the best thing that could come to you as a player, i'm pretty sure winning a tourney when you're that high leveled in skillset you'd be pretty much bored and wouldn't find it

remotely interesting at all. plus on the other hand this could actually furthen the development for our beloved game mode, it would be pretty hilarious seeing one of the top 4k players getting these absurd scores and would be pretty entertaining to watch from viewers perspective aswell imo, so yeah i'm not really doubting the staffs choices on it at all, it's something i'm looking forward to see and lmao.

Was trying to look at it from a top player's perspective i mean, the whole point of the tourney should be competing and challenging yourself am i wrong?
And i find it pretty stupid to fear over score v2 because you wouldn't win easily.

You are completely wrong... Yes i get it for people like you are not predicted to be finalists can say that its not about winning, but did you think about the ones like Halogen- and his other teammates who have already won one championship and due to the change in rules they might not be able to win again. Did you watch the 2015 4k world cup? I mean they definitely deserved it, from the accuracy, the combo and the score, they defeated every single country in this world. They did not just win because they followed the rules or better at manipulating it by finding the best player for certain mods etc. So if you think in their persepctive, every one of them wants to win and its the reason why they took the hassle to sign up and even create a thread like this, you get me? Competitiveness is already real.

gah... you didn't quite get the point either.

The point that I was insinuating off of my post is that I'm actually extremely open to the changes and have no issue dealing with them, regardless of whether or not it affects me or the rest of my team. that I am someone who is an open advocate to score v2, and I am also an advocate that is quite critical and wanting to help in the process by testing, whether that testing involves data or actual play.

But it's not about that: the change in rules is just an additional challenge that I personally appreciate, it's just... not refined. For me, it has nothing to do with winning, and that's why I highlighted the bold part. Winning or losing doesn't matter to me. What matters to me is that everyone has a good time, disagreements with the rules aside. It should be a reasonably level playing field.

This is exactly what this specific mwc needs actually, people like you AJ, but that might not be the case for everyone however i was just pointing out that there can be ~those~ kind of mindset as to why they dislike ScoreV2 being featured in this years tourney.

This tournament should be called "V2 tournament" instead of "world cup", just as the brackets should be called "free-bracket" and "mod-bracket" instead of "NoMod" and "FreeMod", because

1. winning a tournament that is about something new/a specific cathegory doesnt make you a "champion" in general
2. a bracket where FI/HD are optional isnt NoMod
3. a bracket where you're forced to use a mod isn't FreeMod

It's not bad the way it is, the names are just very misleading.

That shouldn't matter that much since everyone basically knows of ''scoreV2'' and they probably checked the wiki / all teams should've read the rules to understand what's going on.

Rolling out the first teams to the wiki.

On a side note, I believe score v2 is now available on Stable, too. Keep in mind that if you use Fallback, you won't be able to play.

I am already shaking

Just asking, did Venezuela qualify to take part in this year's MWC 4k?

You can reside wherever you are, what matters alone is your profile flag. However, if your entire team is in Canada and you are in China, I hardly can have the match times align properly for you and the rest of your team, so be aware that I can't take your unusual timezone (relative to your team) into consideration.

commentators are now on the wiki for those interested. i'm sure there'll be a few names there many of you will know

You were suppose to go here and but it ended already if you look at the date for the Registration Phase (28 Jun - 17 Jul 2016) it already ended. Pretty much you're too late.

Can we use the fallback version on the mwc? Does the score couldl be changed if we use this version?

If this is going to be SPFT rippoff....... Where are the pink fluffy unicorns?

You need to use at least Stable for the MWC. You cant use fallback.

Okay thanks, because my accuracy is less good than the Fallback version. Need to play on Stable version to try to fix it.

Thats because V2 is not implemented on fallback. So when you have songs that are OD8 or higher the accuracy room is tighter.

THAT VIDEO LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL WHAT

Damn XIZ, BACK AT IT AGAIN WITH THE PARODY VIDEOS

ROFL that video 11/10 would watch again

Poland vs hype
Be careful Kami jej

Best of luck to all teams in the round. I won't be there to commentate as I've been in the hospital since Monday. Looking forward to watching live or seeing the vods though!

Take care Tasha

Regarding the SK vs Japan WBD - Snow Wind apparently couldn't make it due to work (https://twitter.com/HNC_KSnyan/status/766966874345082880) and denkyu is mentioning some typhoon effect (https://twitter.com/denkyu_estlight/status/767044306804678656) but I don't understand it well enough to know, whether he is talking about himself or not.

The typhoon thing aside, I would imagine in case of Snow Wind, he knew about the work and hence Japan maybe didn't like the time? This is what I found in rules:

In the stages Quarter-finals and higher: Please inform tournament management before Sunday, if you expect a specific time slot to be unavailable in the following week. Wishes are tried to be followed, alas no promises can be made.

The way I understand it, teams must inform you before schedule is done by you, so they must preventively declare unwanted time slots. Did Japan screw up by not telling you about Snow Wind's unavailability during this time?

Anyways, too bad we missed the highlight of quarterfinals Hopefully Halogen delivers lots of rainbow later today

Wiki updated!

Wiki updated! (again lol)

Halolgen did put a background in this finals map... Is this the end of the world?!
