Flexible on the rest. |
Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
I'm very excited about Would?, but I feel like it will be much more fun to play on drums or vocals than guitar or bass.

I can sort of see the logic in Harmonix's decision, though. It sort of saves you from yourself.
On the Twin Rocker, if you hold down pedal A, it doesn't register pedal B at all, does it? HMX is saying that the sound is made as you strike and therefore that's when the signal should be sent. It is unfortunate that the adapter can't seem to keep up. This is because by default, once the pedal is held down, the signal of it being pressed down continues to be sent until the pedal raises. So I believe how the Twin Rocker (and this other adapter) works, is by simply sending a single pulse when you press down the pedal as if you pressed and then released the pedal. |

Totally, but that's ok right? I personally wish they would offer more songs that don't necessarily have every component. Just as long as they're letting you know well enough before you make the purchase. I'd love some White Stripes and Ting Tings for the drums alone.
Side note: Shut Up And Let Me Go was once on loop for about a week straight while I played WoW |
Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
Trying to do Shag's Challenge #6 and have scores I'm happy with on Promised Land and Headphones on. First try on each too!
But I'm having a bitch of a time on drums. I got a new RB2 set a few months ago, but haven't used it yet. Either I'm out of practice or I have some serious cross-talk going on. Anybody have any advice on how to "tweak" it? It's an "SL" set, I think. |
Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
"Waking the Demon" might be in my top 5 favorite songs for drumming. I've only made it through 80% of the song on Expert, but I think I could get through it if I have a good run. Even when I fail it, it's a lot of fun to play.

I love alternating flam/bass drum charts like this! Have you tried Thrasher's drums?

Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
BADASS........................ Cant wait to play somemore G'n'R.... Probably gonna get the entire album.... The 2 Solo's in "Better" should be Great fun
|
Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
Didn't really like the track in the game, how is the rest of it?
|
Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
That's not GnR though, that's Axel and his band. Bring on some Appetite for Destruction, Use Your Illusion, etc.
Unfortunately, I'll be skipping this. |
Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
Definitely skipping this one.
|
Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
I like that Rock Band is getting newer releases like this, but this one isn't for me.
|
Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
When the news hit that it was eventually coming, I was open to it. Now that it's announced, I'm a little lukewarm on it. I'll see what happens Tuesday and may try a couple.
I do wish they'd figure out a way to patch in a better/louder mix of Shackler's Revenge, though. It's probably going to stick out like a sore thumb compared to the rest of the album, like it seems to compared to most of the songs currently in the game. |
Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
Yeah, Appetite for Destruction or Use Your Illusion? I'm in without thinking. Stupid Chinese Democracy? No thanks.
|
Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
I thought the album was borderline terrible. And this isn't Guns...
|
Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
Awesome! I can't wait until next week!!
I do wonder though, how much fun will "This I Love" be as the song doesn't even have any guitar for the first 2:10 or any drums until 3:15 into the song! We need that piano/keyboard expansion to the game now.... |
Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
I'll likely pick up "Chinese Democracy" and "Better". Definitely not the entire album though.
|
Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
I'm not one to normally bitch about DLC, but damn this sucks. I'd rather have more Spongebob than this "Guns and Roses".

Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
Axl said in an interview somewhere that if this does well, he'll consider letting Harmonix at the old stuff. It's pretty clear that this is basically a pay-to-play for them to get the more popular stuff, so I'm not going to grouse about the fact that AfD isn't here yet.
