Rock Band

[Kaney]

I'm down, but I won't be staying up late till er, Wednesday >_>

[King Ellis]

I now have Oasis DLC. I am using this as an excuse to lobby Zero (since he seems to be the most active in Coin Op ATM) to edit the first post with a list of which members have what DLC. It's annoying asking people every other day.

Also, whilst i'm here, I need assitance on pulling double duty on online multiplayer. That is guitar & vocals. Whenever I tried it didn't come up once Kaney & Dragsy joined the band. I assume I need two gold accounts which is (N)

[NobBe Nobbs]

Seems like it would have been easier to list the ones you didn't have

[EddieRuckus]

I just got the Classic Rock Pack with Blondie, The Police, and whatnot, The Disturbed Pack, and Hysteria by Muse. I'll be editing that into my initial post about what DLC I have.

Also, I'm quite pleased with how well I'm doing on Expert Guitar, despite the fact that I haven't beat GGAHT yet. I got 4 stars on Indestructible and 5 stars on Perfect Insanity and Inside the Fire on my first try, same with Hysteria. Definitely pleased that I can do that so I won't be spending as much time on sons perfecting them.

Fuck me, Snow is ridiculously hard on guitar. Definitely the hardest riff I've seen on Rock Band and another one that's harder on Rock Band than IRL.

Well, duh, it's going to be harder on rock band because 5 frets are less than 15+ you get on an actual guitar. And besides, it'd be about as hard on actual guitar anyways as the chart is modeled pretty much after the actual tab if you were to look it up.

[Cactus Drags]

Ugh, please shut up about games versus real life instruments, it's been done to death, and no one is going to concede that the games are a good idea and are plenty of fun, particularly in a party environment.

[Fanku Kaibutsu]

How the hell are they gonna release a cover of a song, then release a master version?

Also, I'm hoping the 'Rock Band' cut of My Generation won't be too edited, and will still have most of the bits from Tommy.

Why does the number of frets automatically mean that songs are harder on Rock Band? There are plenty of songs that are easier on Expert Rock Band than real life, the vast majority are as far as I know. The number of frets is one factor but the fact that there's only one 'string' means that you end up doing a lot of the work with your left hand when in a song like Snow, you split the work between right hand and left.

I don't see how it's possible to compare RB note charts and tab. Yes, Rock Band sticks to the rough idea of left to right = lower to higher notes but there's nothing replicating the different strings and hammer-ons/pull-offs are exactly the same as slides.

To be honest, I don't give a shit if the note charts are accurate anyway, I had no problem with the GH3 policy. As long as the chart's in rhythm and I can pick out something in the song it relates to it doesn't really matter to me if it's the actual lead guitar part.

[Cactus Drags]

Drums on hard are a lot of fun once you start getting the hang of it. I'm even managing to nail the kick pedal. But fuck Reptilia, I can't believe I scraped that. I also can't believe that Dani California and Orange Crush have become two of my favourites to play, lots of fun, those.

Can someone explain how tug of war is supposed to work when I seem to get a third of the notes the other person does?

It's supposed to work in that the chart is split up for the two people to play, but sometimes one person gets fucked over by getting less charts than the other. It's essentially like face off on guitar hero, which like that, doesn't really work right at all times.

Speaking of Game Informer...

Rockband 2 is gonna be so amazing.

I'm gonna be pissed when Guitar Hero 4 sells better

[EddieRuckus]

Wow, it seems like a true sequel that improves upon the original rather than just a re-hash with different artwork for the menus and new tracks. Online World Tour is going to be awesomely awesome, and I'll offer up my Expert Guitar/Bass skills to start a band with you crazy mofos on EWB. The confirmed tracks are pretty ace, and I'm sure I'll be in love with most, if not all of them by the time I've played through them a few times. Can't wait to play this game
