EX-score
EX-Score is a different scoring type that is focused on S-Crits. Your S-Crit score is calculated by tallying up your hits.
- S-Crits are worth 5 points
- Normal Crits are worth 4
- Nears are worth 2
- Errors are worth 0
EX-Score is not like normal score where there is a set max score. The max EX-Score on every chart is different.
EX-Scoring looks different when selected. When in the game, instead of showing your score at the top right, it will show your ex-score with a MAX next to it. The max shows how far away you are from MAXing the score, meaning hitting all S-Crits. For example, a MAX -3 would mean you hit a near, or 3 crits.
EX-Score is always counted unless you have S-Crit disabled. Even when you have normal scoring selected. If you select EX-Score while in song select and have the rival leaderboard open, you can see others’ EX-Score if they have any.
EX-Score only applies to your player radar, nothing else. Meaning, upscoring your EX-score will not give you VF, only more points on your radar.
While EX-Score doesn’t really affect much in game, there is a special animation for getting a MAX, or an S-PUC. If you want to see it, check out the first S-PUC on a 20 played by Mini .
