Quaver 0.24.0 Update - Difficulty Calculator Update Leaderboard Recalculation
A new Quaver client update has been released! For this update, we've made an update to our difficulty calculation system. This means that your scores and leaderboard ranks may have changed. Please read below for all information regarding this change.
Over the past week, we've worked on developing the necessary tools to be able to recalculate all scores efficiently as well as making the first ever change we've made to our difficulty calculation system. This means that your scores and leaderboard ranks will most likely change. For some players, you may be affected more than others depending on the maps you have played. Keep in mind that the difficulty calculator is an on-going development process, and no changes are final. However, we now have the correct tools to be able to iterate on it as much as we would like to in the future.
One of the biggest flaws in the difficulty calculator was that short long notes heavily inflated the difficulty rating of maps. The change we've made is relatively simple - as you can see by the image above, long notes that are too short to the point where they could be tapped as normal notes are now treated as normal notes by the difficulty calculator. This change effectively nerfs the difficulty rating of maps that heavily use short long notes. This nerf has only been applied to 4K and not 7K. Furthermore, we are very well aware that there may be flaws with this change. As we push out updates to this system, it makes it easier for us as a community to identify issues that are present, so we can address them accordingly.
All scores and leaderboard ranks have been recalculated. You are now able to view the changes on both the leaderboard and on your profile pages on the website. We understand that some players may be affected more than others by this change, and it won't make every single person satisfied. However, we now have the proper tools to be able to iterate on the calculator and improve it over time.
After updating to the latest client version, the game client will automatically recalculate your maps to the newest difficulty calculator version. This happens in the background while you are in the menu screens. Keep in mind that performance may be lower while this process is running. Furthermore, any local scores that you have made will be recalculated as well.
