I play Hard on guitar. I can't really make the jump to expert. I am also pretty close to unlocking the Endless Setlist. But one thing I've noticed is whatever set I do I always seem to gain about 179,000 fans even if I do one song or seven songs. So if I do the Endless Setlist on Hard am I only going to earn 179,000 fans for playing 84 songs?

other factors include the manager you have plus you may be near the cap

So even if I change managers there's still a very good chance for doing 84 songs I'll only earn a small amount of fans?

Yep or no money for it. I change the manager around alot. Say I am playing on the east coast I use that manager sometimes.

To me they are cheating the gamer a bit by putting a cap like that on the number of fans. I play this game quite a bit and no matter what I do there's only a few songs I can play on Expert. Also there's the fact that some songs I can't even beat on Hard like Batter, Painkiller and Panic Attack. Now my roommate can beat those but neither of us have been able to beat Visions on hard. Now he plays Expert a bit better than me but those songs I mentioned before even he can't beat on Expert on guitar or bass and neither of us are that good on drums or vocals.

I think that instead of just putting a flat cap on the numbers of fans it should be some kind of sliding scale. Let's say if I do one song I can get a max of 100,000 fans. If I do say 7 songs I can get a max of like 400,000 or 500,000. Then for the Endless Setlist I can get a max of like 7,500,000 or 10,000,000. I know they want to give us a reason to go up to higher difficulty but I spent a lot of time unlocking the Endless Setlist and was all pumped to play it until right before I played a 7 song set and only got 179,000 fans. So I refuse to play it because I feel cheated. Now if they decide to fix the problem then I'll play it but I'm not going to spend 8 hours of my life and get the same reward as if I had played only one song.
