Rock Band 3 (Keyboards!!!! And other "pro" instruments)

[Kane Knight]

Good. Now start playing pro.

"Need You Tonight" is a great place to get a GS on it. It's just an inverted C chord. I think it's C. I forget offhand. Anyway, play the same three notes a bunch of times.

Got two of my friends achievements on that and they have no musical literacy and questionable skill. XD.

I can only do well on a handful of easy songs on Expert. Mostly I'm still on Medium, but it really is a fun learning curve.

[D Mac]

Yeah I played a couple of songs on pro. Pretty fun.

[Fignuts]

Ugh. Stopped playing for a couple months now. Probably need to relearn everything again. Though it's not like I learned much, but I was starting to get some muscle memory. Not getting my keyboard til after I get my tax return, so all I've got for now is the RB3 ivories.

[Extreme Angle]

Will be getting the Keyboard and drums sometime

You probably lost a step, but in my experience it's easier to get your chops back the second time. I haven't even played my 360 since I got out of the hospital, so I'm probably in a similar sitch.

[D Mac]

Probably will get the cymbals for the drums soon.

[Extreme Angle]

Got the guitar, now I need the game :/

[Kane Knight]

This thought just came to mind, but why the fuck don't we have "American Pie" by now?

[Pegasus Crawford]

[D Mac]

Metallica on Pro Guitar huh. Too bad I sold it.

Hopefully this means more Metallica to come!

[Kalyx triaD]

Justice For All pro-guitar? Shit.

[Kane Knight]

Does any song from PHM really need pro guitars?

[Kane Knight]

Also, Harmonix lied to us. Supposedly, they couldn't just add pro guitar to older cuts, which is why I re-bought several Queen tracks and why Bon Jovi had three "Rock Band 3 Versions."

[Boomer]

Does any song from PHM really need pro guitars?

Definitely not. Still really stoked for more NIN.

[Kane Knight]

Oh, me too. Especially since I love the tracks they picked.

[Kane Knight]

Anyone else ever have a glitch where the talkies aren't accepted?

When I played eafrlier, this happened. I mean, normally the presence of any sound is enough, but I might as well have been miming the songs when I hit a talky part.

[D Mac]

Available on Xbox 360, Wii and PlayStation®3 system (March 8):

• Depeche Mode – “Never Let Me Down Again”
• Depeche Mode – “Personal Jesus” X

(All tracks are original master recordings)

meh

[Boomer]

I'll probably get all four.

Gay. We need the Johnny Cash version!

[D Mac]

[Kane Knight]

Oh look. More Billy Joel.

*yawn*

[Kane Knight]

Ha ha. D Mac likes Lady Gaga.

[D Mac]

I have no idea what you're talking about. :shifty:

[Fignuts]

Lady Gaga is awesome. There is nothing to be ashamed about.

[Kane Knight]

Lady Gaga is awesome. There is nothing to be ashamed about.

He's a metalfag. There's plenty to be ashamed about. both for liking Metallica, and for the lubeless raping he'll get when his comrades find out.

[Kane Knight]

Also, beat a couple of his scores. :shifty:

[D Mac]

I know this dude that's all decked out in biker shit and has multiple piercings and loves hardcore metal. And Lady Gaga.

[D Mac]

Just Dance on Expert Drums is fucking fun.

[Kane Knight]

I know this dude that's all decked out in biker shit and has multiple piercings and loves hardcore metal. And Lady Gaga.

You can't use yourself as a source, bitch. :foc:

[Kane Knight]

On a side note, I love how listening to GaGa still doesn't stop my "music elitist" image in people's minds. I'm beginning to think I could listen to Bieber 24/7 and still be a snob.

[Pegasus Crawford]

Hey gang,

[D Mac]

So what. He had no fail on.

[Kalyx triaD]

lol He notes in the vid description that people like you would immediately miss the point. He's showing the fucking note chart, give him a break.

[Kane Knight]

So what. He had no fail on.

Which would make a difference if he was showing off his leet skillz.

[Kalyx triaD]

I would love to see what percentage I'd get, because I'm never finishing that song legit.

[Kane Knight]

I'd get like, 3% and 0 stars.

[Pegasus Crawford]

I'd be happy to even hit like, 10 notes in that clusterfuck. :(

[Extreme Angle]

Pro Guitar is so hard... Really cool though, loving playing Yoshiro and the robots or whatever it's called on my guitar :)

Meh. I got American Band on GH.

[Kane Knight]

Freeze-Frame used to be a favourite of mine growing up.

[Kane Knight]

No wonder D Mac sold his guitar. I'm beating his scores on medium pro-sightreads.

Some of them I'm not even hitting the three star threshold for the challenges.

Been a while since I've checked up on this game. Anyone here have the Squire guitar? I know a lot of people were talking about getting the Mustang with all the buttons, but has anyone actually tried the one with strings? Any good?

[D Mac]

Hey gang,

The next round of DLC is a solid batch of singles from a healthy assortment of artists. Some 70's funk, 80's pop, modern metal and more! Expect to see 3 pro guitar upgrades, most notably on the fan-funking-tastic Love Rollercoaster. Enjoy!

[Matt Gingarac]

Doesn't anyone play this game on ps3?

[CSL]

I don't think anybody plays this full stop

[Matt Gingarac]

I don't think anybody plays this full stop

Figures

[D Mac]

I usually only play now when I get drunk and have to sing.

[Pegasus Crawford]

I probably play for an hour or so once or twice a week, a bit more if I include dedicated sessions to learning pro guitar on the Squier.

[Kane Knight]

Doesn't anyone play this game on ps3?

There were a total of like 2 people playing RB2 on PS3. The odds that either upgraded are pretty slim.

I play it on 360, mostly doing pro keys now. I still suck, but it's the only way I'm going to learn.

Also, PHUCK PHISH.

I don't care if they run me out of Vermont for that.

im also guessing most people brought dlc on the xbox so they wouldn't switch to ps3 anyway. theres someone out there that will eventually pick rb3 up

[D Mac]

By the way, this game is now 20 bucks new.

[G]

Nobody send D Mac an invite, he'll ignore you and appear offline.

Yeah, I'll tell YOU when to play. :p

Anyone else notice to GS Kryptonite you have to sing just slightly out of tune with the vocalist?

Kinda funny to me.

Also, Wadding sucks.

[Extreme Angle]

• Faith No More – “From Out of Nowhere”


:drool:

[Kane Knight]

Ew.

[Kalyx triaD]

Sorry for the no show guys, this game is pretty much an offline thing for me.

[D Mac]

Don't play much anymore. I wonder how much longer this will live on before it dies out like Guitar Hero.

[tjmidnight420]

Hopefully a good while.. I still look forward to the new dlc every week.

[Kane Knight]

Don't play much anymore. I wonder how much longer this will live on before it dies out like Guitar Hero.

You're just bitter because I can outdo you on vocal scores 99% of the time. :p

Anyway, the community still seems to be active, and of the few recent songs I've purchased, everyone online seems to have them. I have trouble seeing this go away any time soon. It may continue towards the niche, but I doubt it'll vanish.

[Kalyx triaD]

That's what happens when you apply a completely logical DLC plan to a game like this, rather than a completely batshit disc release plan.

Activision had the brand recognition, more pull with big bands, an excellent music creator (in concept and partially execution) and they still fucked it up.

I bet if they had continued their "vow" to "support" their franchises (Guitar Hero and DJ Hero), they'd still be making money off the franchises.

Of course, they "had to" kill it.

Honestly, I'm not sure what was going on in their heads. You didn't see them putting out 6 Call of Duty games a year....

[Kalyx triaD]

What strikes me stupid, is that they obviously didn't have a problem nailing some notable acts. It would have been nothing at all to lessen disc releases and increase DLC, in fact that would have saved them money. Who thought is was a good idea to release a Van Halen game? What 'market research' concluded that to be a good move?

And then the old non-transferable setlist thing, that they tried to do but failed at. And certain DLC not playable between games (which was absurd). And toward the end they had some decent ideas (Party Play was elegant and awesome), but they burned themselves out. Shame, their note charts started getting better too.

VH was like the second most requested/desired band. Of course, the question is, second with how many people?

And since MEtallica was THE most requested band and it didn't set the world on fire, why continue?

I didn't get the non-transferrable DLC thing. Once makes sense. You weren't planning forward. It's not the best scenario, but it is what it is. How you continue to make that mistake through several iterations of games is beyond me.Rock Band got it in one. While they're not perfect, they certainly did that right.

Activision is really good at pleasing investors, though. I suspect that investors don't care as much about DLC, and want hit DISCS being released.

The true bummer of this is that Rock Band 3 probably is the best music game out there. People wanted something new, and they got it--but the market was flooded and too few people actually bought it. Which seemed to be Activision's way of saying "If I can't have her, nobody can!"

But pro keys are pretty awesome. Pro Guitar is nice, though I hate the low end guitar model (I thought it'd be fun, but you're still pushing buttons and that's just not a similar experience). The higher end Squier is probably different, but the Mustang doesn't really play like an actual guitar. Kinda moot, since my Mustang was destroyed a couple months ago, but still. I wouldn't mind owning a Squier at this point, but I don't have that kinda cash to throw around.

Keyboards actually make practicing fun. That alone makes it better than any other method I've tried. I won't pretend I'm an expert on piano, but it's helped me greatly. I even find myself playing some of those songs on my actual keyboard.

Of course, the catch is you have to buy more "plastic instruments." Yeah yeah, both are MIDI controllers, but I doubt most people care. Even the Squier probably sounds like shit when plugged in. Though it may be a good learner's guitar, my only real interest in it is as a controller, and nobody even remotely serious should look at that thing and thing "I'm gonna sound good on that!"

That's probably because when I sing, I have to be drunk.

You must be drunk a lot. You're all over the leaderboards. Including a couple dozen songs I haven't beat you at because I haven't sung yet.

[Kalyx triaD]

Anybody ever wade through the RB store and think, "Great act but wrong songs"?

[D Mac]

Incubus next week.

[Kane Knight]

Hot.

[D Mac]

Cool I'm gonna try that.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

Yeah, just watch out. They might ban you from Live if you play them while being connected because this technique has been used on "cracking" the DLC as well.

[D Mac]

I'll play them offline.

Check your info this is not the same as the "marketplace theft" profile hacks. This requires no profile. As far as the 360 is concerned it's a save file. It's Rock Band that interprets it as dlc.

I know that, the DLC songs are being unpacked and repacked like with the RB1 exploit as well though, I've seen it on a bunch of private torrent sites. All's I'm saying is watch out, you'd be naive to think your song cache isn't viewable by Harmonix or Microsoft.

I tried that Guitar Hero to Rock Band shit and it worked! Use that Party Buffalo program with a flash drive and just follow those instructions and it works great. I have Beat It in Rock Band now!

Hey tjmidnight or anyone if you can find other custom pirated RB3 songs to download that would be awesome.

Going to try this.

How all does it work? Just format a USB and then download? What all songs are present?

It was a mistake. Besides, I know you wouldn't want to play with me and risk being embarrassed. :p

[Kane Knight]

Plus, they're still working on more.

Tried doing it today. Couldn't figure it out. Can't figure out where the USB went...

At least the RHCP DLC is out now.

I was disappointed that there's still no venue select.

Seriously, Harmonix has been asked for this since day one, so what's the holdup?

Also, I've seen no real confirmation that custom songs are disabled. The worst I've seen is people bitching that if you have custom songs you can't play Dani California, but that's not actually the cause, since other people have issues.

[DAMN iNATOR]

WOW. Wasn't even aware people still played their music/guitar/band games in 2012. Thought it was like considered passé now or something.

[Kane Knight]

Oh shit, I knew I forgot something. How could I dare enjoy something without the express approval of my peers?

[DAMN iNATOR]

Oh shit, I knew I forgot something. How could I dare enjoy something without the express approval of my peers?

I didn't say I disapproved. Just thought a lot of people decided they didn't want to keep spending more and more money on music peripheral games, that's all I was trying to say, even if you did misunderstand my meaning.

[Kane Knight]

I didn't say I disapproved.

No, my peers. You would need to develop at least opposable thumbs to qualify.

I never said anything about you disapproving.

[DAMN iNATOR]

I think I'd better drop this. Otherwise it's gonna turn into a "you didn't say what I said you didn't say about..."

[Kane Knight]

Well, I didn't say that, so...:p

[Kalyx triaD]

Shindown Pack:

"Bully"
"Second Chance"
"The Crow and The Butterfly"

[Kane Knight]

Any of those songs any good?

[Kalyx triaD]

I never really listened to Shinedown but Rock Band rarely couples a DLC release with a damn blog talking about how big a deal it is. Gonna YouTube the tracks later.

[Kalyx triaD]

Also, anyone else annoyed of the sound mixing with many of the RBN tracks? They come off way too loud compared to the developer DLC. I was gonna raid the All That Remains offerings until I heard how loud and 'jagged' they were mixed.

I have other RBN tracks that sound fine, though.

[Kane Knight]

Haven't really paid much attention to anything past their second album.

Bully is awful.

[Fignuts]

Yeah, The Sound of Madness was pretty forgettable.

[Kane Knight]

Yeah, The Sound of Madness was pretty forgettable.
Hadn't they cycled through pretty much the whole band by then?

[Kane Knight]

Evanescence next week. bet Wadding's all over this.

[Kalyx triaD]

Know the tracks?

[Kane Knight]

* Evanescence – “Everybody’s Fool” OX
* Evanescence – “Lithium” O
* Evanescence – “What You Want” O

[Kalyx triaD]

Cool.

[Kane Knight]

Meh.

[D Mac]

Too bad Shinedown's doesn't have Save Me. Love that one.

[D Mac]

Just got Santana's Smooth and Three Days Grace. Gonna drunk sing the shit out of that tonight.

[Kane Knight]

Too bad Shinedown's doesn't have Save Me. Love that one.

Indeed.

[Kalyx triaD]

P!nk track pack this week.

More interesting, the cover art for these downloads on XBL are already shown as Rock Band Blitz DLC. Rock Band Blitz, to my knowledge, isn't even dated yet.

GameInformer, in the most recent issue, mentioned something about not needing the instruments, you just play using a controller, a la the old Frequency and Amplitude games on PS2? Dunno if that's true but if it is, :wtf::?:?!

[Kalyx triaD]

That's a very good thing, those games were pretty good. And this one has a library of over 1,000 tracks from the jump.

[D Mac]

I wonder if this will work with my downloaded customs.

[Blitz]

Do you think perhaps the giant "No Instruments Required" at about 40 seconds into the video you quoted might be a tacit confirmation of not needing instruments? Just maybe?

[Kane Knight]

It's Daminator. What the fuck did you expect?

[Kane Knight]

* Rage Against the Machine – “Bombtrack” X

* Rage Against the Machine – “Killing in the Name”

* Rage Against the Machine – “Sleep Now in the Fire”

[Kalyx triaD]

Cool.

[Kalyx triaD]

Also, the recent Evanescence pack will work your pro key skills.

[Kane Knight]

I have limited pro key skills.

Not sure I'm interested in the Rage pack. I like the songs, but I never have fun playing their tracks in Rock Band.

[Kalyx triaD]

Play Freebird on Pro Keys and get your ass kicked, then work from there.

[D Mac]

Fags against the machine fucking suck.

[Kalyx triaD]

They're alright.

I don't mind.

[Kane Knight]

To be fair, Scott Stapp has a more tolerable voice.

He just makes shittier music.

[D Mac]

Bullshit

[Extreme Angle]

Scott Stapp mimicks Eddie Vedder.

Harmonix drops an interesting blog about how DLC actually gets developed, from choosing to launch. (http://www.rockband.com/blog/from-licensing-to-release-the-life-of-a-dlc-pack)

Though not unbelievable, note that actually developing the tracks take no more than a few days.

[D Mac]

When is RB Blitz coming out?

[Kalyx triaD]

Don't know. The art on XBLA doesn't ease the wait.

Depends on how you define "developing" the tracks, I guess. It looks longer, especially since they treat the different steps as sequential.

Also, since they say they can churn out the product in about three weeks normally.

[Kane Knight]

Two weeks ago, there was a Maiden pack announced.

This week:


• Cracker – “Teen Angst (What the World Needs Now)” X

• Florence + the Machine – “Dog Days Are Over” O

• Midnight Oil – “Power and the Passion” O

Also, new tracks announ ced for Rock Band Blitz:

Fuck yeah, Florence. Though I would prefer Drumming Song or No Light.

[D Mac]

Wish they'd fn hurry up with RB Blitz.

• The Black Keys –“Howlin’ for You” O
• The Black Keys – “Lonely Boy” O X

Black Keys...Mmmmmm

[D Mac]

Rock Band Blitz is mad fun. Whoever gets it ill add you back on my friends list so I can beat your scores.

[Kane Knight]

Kind of like taking the on-disc only stuff and releasing it for optional purchase. Now do Boulevard of Broken Dreams, because it's the only track I really want.

[Wehttam]

exactly. i dont want 40 green day songs. but there are a good 7-8 i would buy. jesus of suburbia, bunch of shit off dookie.

[Kane Knight]

• Save Ferris – “Come on Eileen” O X

[Kalyx triaD]

There's keys in 'Animal?

[Kane Knight]

No clue, but they've mislabeled before.

[Fignuts]

I have recently rediscovered this game, thanks to my roomates joining in the fun.

First time I've ever played with other people on a consistent level. No high scores will be broken, as we always play after a lot of drinking, but whatever. The best is doing road challenges, and seeing someone who is into jimmy buffet and grateful dead sing a random setlist and get children of bodom.

[Kalyx triaD]

We play regularly and this game is insta-fun. We need new guitar controllers, though, and hell if you find one now that the genre is dead.

[Fignuts]

As long as harmonix keeps releasing new tracks, I don't care how dead it is.

Just bought the bush pack. Sixteen Syone ftw. Though they need to put out Glycerine.

[Kane Knight]

As long as harmonix keeps releasing new tracks, I don't care how dead it is.

Kal's point, erroneous as it is, is about the difficulty in finding the actual hardware (guitars in this case) so you can play the game. Because unfortunately, the DLC is useless without the peripherals to play it.

But still, Mad Catz makes everything (even if they are out of guitar controllers right now) and there's a major second-hand market of perfect good fake guitars.

[Kalyx triaD]

I need a PayPal account because all the kiddies on Ebay use it, and there seems to be some guitars on Ebay. The only thing here locally is the Legends of Rock guitar, which I guess would be fine for whoever's on bass. Aiming for the Stratocaster for lead. Also need a new mic, a second mic stand, and a blue cymbal.

[Kane Knight]

That reminds me, I've been meaning to get Legends of Rock if it's cheap enough.

[Kalyx triaD]

Not interested in the game, but I'll have to deal with it since the guitar comes with the game. Nothing but bundles here.

[Kane Knight]

I wanted to play the game, but it wasn't worth full price. Or thirty dollars.

Surprised they even have bundles, mind.

[Kalyx triaD]

Jokes on them, places are trying to get rid of the things. Might be worth screwing with whatever studio mode they got, but I hope I can resell it somewhere. Like the next day.

Rock Band Blitz is pretty fucking fun.

[Kalyx triaD]

It's cool, I see it as a damn good track pack in itself.

[Kane Knight]

The tracks are the main reason I bought it. But it's quite fun in itself.

[Fryza]

I don't have much an opinion of it either way. The sale made it worth it, and it seems like a great game in concept, I just can't seem to get it down.

It was a good buy for 600 points, and it's a pretty decent set list honestly.

[Kalyx triaD]

“The Bitch is Back” – Elton John O
“Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Me” – Elton John O
“I’m Still Standing” – Elton John O

Looks like I've got to replace my RB2 guitar, it refuses to sync despite trying with new batteries and different XBOX consoles.

[Kalyx triaD]

You've pressed the button on the Xbox and everything?

[stultiloquy]

Yeah, there's no response.

I did some looking around online and found some similar reports (some people having this happen straight out of the box), and it looks like I've just got a dead guitar now.

[Kalyx triaD]

Wish you luck finding a new one. I never found a new RB guitar.

[Kane Knight]

“Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Me” – Elton John O


Got to get this, but I'm waiting for the BL2 season pass.

Yeah, there's no response.

I did some looking around online and found some similar reports (some people having this happen straight out of the box), and it looks like I've just got a dead guitar now.

That's rough. My RB2 guitars both survived being drowned in a fire. One's buttons are slightly less responsive, but meh.

Every time I do John Lennon's "Imagine" I have a habit of looking off to the like the B camera is there. And that's not even the wackiest 'living the performance' thing I've ever done.
