Now that I can FC the intro I'm seriously working on an FC of CoD. I can hit every section semi-consistently except the outro solo, which I just suck unbelievably at.

 

 

 

I -1ed the outro on my sightread run. Well, after I got the intro down. O_o

Play the outro for me. Srsly.

 

 

 

If I skip that first triplet and start with the descending ones after it I can FC it through the end (if I don't screw up the last few notes.) Switching the direction my fingers go that fast just kills me.

Well I just have really fast fingers, slow sections kill me, I pretty much FCed the CoP solos first time I did it. I find sightreading really easy too, the second time I see something doesn't really make a difference to me.

RB2 wii and GH:M wii are both coming out within a month of each other.

 

 

 

this is the hardest decision I have ever had to make.

 

Why not buy GH:M and buy all the apparatuses that come with it (including the double bass pedal) and then pick up a copy of the RB2 game stand alone? That way you'd be able to enjoy both worlds.

I got a new FC today, Cities on Flame...

 

 

 

Problem is that I got it playing guitar hero arcade and thus have no proof :P

 

 

 

I had 30ish people watching me at one point with a couple of them requesting me to play some songs heh

Wow you have a GH:Arcade near you? I haven't heard of any near me at all. It would help to have an arcade though...

 

 

 

When I was gone, I got a ton of things, here are some that I remember off the top of my head

 

TTFAF 5 star

 

Raining Blood 5 star (lol)

 

Raining Blood Flood! + Mosh 1 FC

 

Slash Guitar Battle Blues Buster FC

 

Afterlife Solo D FC

 

Action FC

 

Master Exploder FC

 

Thrasher (Drums) Gold stars

 

Cliffs of Dover FC

 

Countless Number of the Beast Chokes... >_>

 

Sleepwalker Solo 2B 80% FC

 

 

 

Just some random stuff. And what's talk about Saidin maybe FC'ing DWDTG??

It's only on Hard saidin is close to FCing it.

 

 

 

And not really near me, went to London today and they had one there, it's stupid though. Basically Guitar Hero 3, but without half the songs and to get some good ones (CoP, KoC etc.) you had to pay 17 credits? Which made no sense to me :s

 

 

 

Also the guitars have no whammy bar so auto whammied for you (and sucked at it). Was weird playing without hyperspeed too, but got 2 FCs with it(FC'd Helicopter there too)

Oh, that got me really confused, I knew Saidin was good, but not that good lol...

 

And I thought I heard there was going to be GH:Arcade exclusive songs, maybe they aren't out yet or something.

I already have all the kit. I was gonna buy the standalone GH:M before RB2 was announced, and I wont have enough money for both.

If you enjoy RB1 more than GH3 or 4 then get RB2. I find it tough switching between RB and GH even thou i have every single game possible ::'. Square buttons are harder to distinguish how fast to strum sometimes if youre used to circles lol and the HOPO system on RB2 takes me a good week of playing to get up to the standard i am at on GH4 HOPO.

 

 

 

If i was in your shoes if get GH:M but thats because i am a metal fan aswell ;)

I'm veering towards RB2 because you'll get SO much more bang (camaro) for your buck. Metallica has less on disc songs and no dlc at all.

 

And with breakneck speed and a good guitar, I'm not gonna feel crippled like I did playing RB1.

I got a Guitar Hero DS and On Tour for my birthday today, it's actually quite hard so far.

 

 

 

Well, the fretting is simple but the strumming is annoying to get the hang of.

 

Really? For me I thought the fretting was harder then the strumming. It might have been because I had to use my left hand to fret when in normal GH I use my right hand though :lol:

runescapeloser, how do you have a Flood! FC and Afterlife Solo D FC and only just got TTFAF 5*? o.O Are you just that good at tapping/that bad at TTFAF, or am I missing something? >_<

 

 

 

It would seem you are pretty good at tapping though, which means you'll be able to do plenty of stuff I probably never will - I've never really mastered tapping that wasn't at the beginning of a song, except in certain trills that I could one-hand but am too lazy to... Maybe it's a coordination issue.

 

 

 

Anyways, a few weeks ago I bought myself a nice 1080p 22" monitor for my computer, and just this week I bought a new Xbox and the HDMI cable. GH has never looked so wonderful before. Still adjusting to the size change for Halo, but it seems that monitor size and aspect ratio barely affects me in GH. Either way, I haven't played in a few days.

SaidinWoT can now be tracked easily on weekends - Erm, maybe when I start playing again.

I fail at tapping too. The only thing I can tap effectively is the CoD intro. It requires tapping one button >_>

 

 

 

Although I can do the trills on Satch Boogie. Wait, that only requires one button too. And no elbow-strumming.

I suck at strumming ;) I always overstrum, it's kind of ridiculous. Not like, go to fast overstrum, I just always forget to stop #-o Also since I was banned for two months, the TTFAF five star was like towards the beginning. Afterlife was a little over a week ago, and Flood! was 3 days ago, lol.

 

 

 

EDIT: Which is why a Raining Blood FC will never happen, I can't FC the other parts of it for my life, besides the intro.

I'd be lost without tapping :-# , although lately I've been trying to rely on my left hand alone and it seems I'm improving as I FINALLY FC'd 'Cult of Personality' from 'Start Soloing' - 'Don't Stop Soloing' in practice, twice :D ! The FC is possible, but whenever I go into real runs I keep missing the infuriating GROGRB pattern followed by those two strums...

 

 

 

Ah well, is anyone else buying GH:M? I've thought about it for awhile, and though I'm not really a fan of expansion games I'm almost definitely going to get it. I'm aiming to be the first to FC the game on Bass, although I'm hoping it provides more of a challenge than GH:WT did.

That's going to take a while. Did you see the little preview of the Slayer song on bass?

Here's the link to the Slayer vid

 

 

 

 

 

 

You only see the chart about 3 times, and it's in the beginning of the video- the rest is just watching the people play.

 

 

 

And yeah, the Bass part for that song looks like a huge strumfest, but it's nothing compared to what you can hear on the Guitar part :-#

 

 

 

Here's the topic for GH:M on ScoreHero by the way

I was just on GH: WT, and i did the 'Tool' "Gig" for the first time, i have to say, what a load of crap! 3 songs that bored me to tears, with awful singing, and a background (while i was playing) that drove me insane.

 

 

 

Tbh i would hardly call that a gig -.-

 

 

 

By the end of it i was desperate to play an upbeat song that i can enjoy.
