for one, save your star power for the (crazy fast, holy freaking crap hard) solo.

 

may seem obvious, but it's practical... managed 96 percent so far...

 

 

 

as for same old song and dance... no advice, just keep playing it until you get it, that works as well as star powering the hard parts

Im stuck on any song on normal mode. I cant get my fingers to move fast enough or right, and the hammer on-pull off techniques are too hard.

 

Ive completed easy but im stumped on using 4 colours. HEEEELP!!!

A finger on each color, it's not that difficult. :)

seriously.. it IS for some people.. We have GH2 set up in our school for breaktimes... and there are maybe 5 of us who can actually play it to a decent level (expert) and most other people that try and play cant even pass a song on easy. I guess some people just dont have basic hand eye coordination, or the ability to move their fingers independantly of one and other.

I dunno, the pinky completely screws me up. I can ace anything on easy b/c I'm coordinated and all, but once you move to even the first medium, I can't even pass. It feels all awkward and I can't do it.

 

 

 

Consider: When I'm playing a PC Game, if I lay my hands in a fairly standard configuration, my middle finger will cover 'W' (and therefore, 'S' aswell), my ring and index finger cover 'A' and 'D' respectively (and 'Q' and 'E' for peaking if applicable). However, the pinky covers neither 'Caps' or 'Tab' which would line up with the others; it most often rests on 'Shift' and if necessary 'Ctrl', because its significantly shorter. If the guitar-hero controller were set up better, especially for people with smaller, more human hands, it would work better.

Yeah, you definitely just have to play a lot.

 

Force yourself to get used to it would be my only advice :P

 

 

 

I just beat guitar hero 2 on expert finally lol, and I'm mad that I can't get guitar hero 3 since it's sold out everywhere! :wall: <.< -.- :x

 

 

 

I CANNOT beat 2 on expert. Its just too difficult.

Just a question for anyone here that plays guitar, if you notice that you have any clear advantage over people that don't? Like, do you use your pinky a lot in this game, do you double pick etc? Because I read somewhere - I don't remember whether it was from a review of the game on some site or if I read it at a forum - that guitar players will have a disadvantage from people that don't play guitar. I just can't see how that could be, and I've never really played any of the GH games so I'm curious.

As for the disadvantage quote, that was Slash himself if I recall correctly.

 

 

 

I don't think that you have that much of an advantage, perhaps a better sense of rhythm or something of the nature. Nothing much.

The hardest part of the game was going from easy to medium. Once you get the hang of medium, the game seems alot easier.

Personally I started the game with medium. What absolutely killed me was the switch from medium to hard. The notes were faster, more complicated, I could barely struggle to hit a couple of orange notes a minute, and my hand ached like hell at the end of the song. :wall:

MOSH 1 ON RAINING BLOOD (HARD) IS SO FREAKING IMPOSSIBLE!!

 

:lol:

 

I've tried it like a million times, and Raining Blood is the last song I need to beat Hard. Star Power goes by so freaking fast :lol:

 

Downstrum all of the notes, you should be able to get by without Star Power. :)

 

omg... thank you... so much... downstruming got me through it (with star power) and I just beat it, wooooot! i'm so happy!

 

 

 

but i tried the battle against Lou... no chance :lol: although I did make it through about 65% of the song, except after the half-way point I was in flashing red the entire time until I failed, any tips? :lol:

Get three in a row, use them right after you get em.

 

 

 

After an hour, that's how I beat it on Hard.

 

 

 

my strategy was to make him mess up so that he couldn't get any battle powers to piss me off that hard part was survivng the first attack because he gets it and its usually lefty flip :cry:

Eh. I'll never, ever beat TDWDTG on Expert, much less 5* it. Same thing with TtFaF, unless I somehow miraculously learn how to tap the intro! :( I've tried doing the intro with one hand, but can't get more than 3% in :\ any tips, guys?

when i got home after school i found out there was a fault in the line, for our electricity, how bad is that, finally i get it and i cant even play

 

it came back on after about half hour :shock: :x :evil:

Is anyone having trouble with their "map" on their profile page? I've played a ton of people online, but so far the only person to show up is some guy from Oregon. Also, there are like 5 people at my exact location with no username. Any help would be great.

 

 

 

Thanks,
