Animations for Vocals + (insert instrument here)?

[The Hungry Samurai]

If I can now have one character play all 3 instruments will the game allow for 3 piece bands, in which the guitarist, bassist, or drummer will also sing?

Or will multitaskers be force to create multiple characters yet again. I've yet to see anything showing otherwise on any of the preview video's on the net. Has anyone seen anything that will ease this voxtar's mind?

there will be a special character called voctar, he shall rock your world and devour your soul

All four instruments, you bassist.

;)

I doubt it, but it might be possible if they just put the vocalist's mouth animations onto the guitarist character, while he does regular guitar actions near a mic with a stand. But I wouldn't know.

I just hope they don't tell me to just use the same character twice so that there's clones on the stage. It'd be a cheezy shortcut.

wait... but what about the animation where the vocalist shares the mike with the guitarist? how would that work? would the voxtarist's head split in two?

Hey now bass is the only real instrument of those I can actually play! I wasn't counting Vocals.

My voice isn't an instrument. It's a force of nature. ;)

[OakTea]

Quite understandable, but your vocal cords are an instrument/instruments. I think. :)


And about the head splitting in two, maybe the bassist would take that spot instead?

all hail voxtarist!!!

Have they actually confirmed a voxtarist? I know they hinted toward it, but I haven't seen anything for sure.

I'd definitely like this, since I do voxtar or voxbass sometimes. But I'll make do with 2 characters if necessary.

I haven't figured out how people will play three or more instruments at once, let alone the animations. Though they could have the characters sprout additional sets of arms…

I think they hinted toward "options for those that want to play guitar and sing at the same time," but I don't know what that entails.
Hopefully a Voxtar option for the character. That'd be awesome.
