Ok, since I've yet to see anything explaining the working of the game I figured I'd start a thread and get things going. Add your own info and eventually we'll figure all this out.

Ok, BASICS.

Each note gets you 25pts. All difficulties are the same, every colored note is the same.
You get 25pts+a constant increase for when you have to hold down a fret as well. I can figure out what the rate of increase is yet.
Obviously the multiplier adds to this value.

From what I can tell each song has its own point requirements for the stars. Getting these numbers would be pretty useful, would make a good FAQ. Figuring out how many pts per star too.
Getting the number of notes in each song would also be good for the FAQ.

EDIT Gold Stars are only available on EXPERT. Here is a linkt o all the points required. http://rockband.scorehero.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1623 (Thanks to yellowCard929)

Now this is all solo play. Invite a friend and aalot of stuff gets complicated. in BWT each friend added increases teh REQ it seems. The highest possible mutlipliers here are x32 (800pts per note!) for the guitar,drums, and vocals, x48 (1200pts per note!) for the bass (this is with all players in overdrive.)

Thats all I got atm.

Please share any info you have.
If you get flawless on a song, tell me the song, Difficulty, note streak, (and 5star REQ if you know) All the info helps a ton!
I suck too much to play hard and expert so that info is even more valuable to me Thanks!

uh, dude, to get gold stars you have to full combo the song... in other words, not miss a note ;)

Nope, gold stars from 100% notes is a Guitar Hero feature. Rock Band does the gold stars via the 1.5X the 5star score.

I've hit 100% notes and just got 5 stars, not gold.

Is this just for guitars or drums? If there is a link for scores needed for drums please post it or if anyone knows lets start a thread for this.
