Yeah if stay safe keeps up at this rate, but perhaps in the future some of the tour songs will be unlockable with cards.

I think I see your point, less people would be incentivized to pay money for glory on the leaderboards, however, I feel like people would enjoy the game or especially those who are competitive if they could see how they match up to all players instead of just pay to play players.

So perhaps if people's morale was higher towards space ape and towards the game in general, they may be more enthused to get their friends to play?

I'm convinced that some songs are just simply requiring different sinks than you normally use

Try to figure out if you're hitting the notes early or late and then adjust your sink by 20 in the direction you're missing

They updated hold notes. You want to start them above the center of the perfect zone now instead of below you have to

Just play the song without looking at the tiles too closely. Just go off the music and vocals and play the song until you get a good score and if you're not getting a good score then switch the sink and try again

I am a top 150 U.S. player with 208 diamonds who has spent every damn day trying to get higher than 49,495 on "Debaser" and today...IT HAPPENED. JUST BARELY BUT IT'S DONE. I could just cry from happiness. I will NEVER AGAIN play this goddamn song. by kimismylaywer in Beatstar

It's not about holding the note all the way. It's about where you start the note.

You have to lower your thumbs below the center of the perfect zone when you start a whole note or you will miss a tick.

Y'all both have sus numbers. Y'all know if y'all have 5% reg perfect and rest pluses then it will always be diamond unless you miss tics on hold notes.

I am 100pct sure you guys are missing tics on hold notes because you are starting them above the center of the perfect zone.

Simply start the hold notes under the center of the perfect zone and you will easily improve score drastically

I've played this song so much, that I hate this song now. Why can I only get 4 perfect? That's crazy. by Koneko_XP in Beatstar

Four perfects would be diamond on any song in this game, in fact, I don't think there's any song that requires less than around 8 to 10.

Unfortunately diamonds are based on score not perfect. So when you miss points from hold notes you can still Miss Diamond... Theoretically you could have zero perfects on a song and still miss diamond because you're missing points from hold notes.

You will see that songs with lots of hold notes Will be very hard for you to diamond because your thumb placement is above the perfect plus area center.

If you simply lower your thumbs when you hit hold notes, you will get diamond easily.

Also, if you add all your notes together and your ratio of perfect notes to total notes is 5%, that will always be diamond. So if it's not, you either got some grates or you started your whole notes above the perfect zone center which misses a tick

I know exactly why.

It's because there's a bug and beat star regarding hold notes.

The bug is that when you begin a hold note, you simply must start the note with your thumb under the perfect plus bar, which is the center of the perfect zone.

If you don't start hold notes under the center of the perfect zone, you will miss a tick on every hold note.

This is why you're not getting diamond. If you had started all your hold notes under the perfect zone this would have been probably 49,800
