Thank you americans for this Stress Test and Beta test

[Layklant]

Well for those infortunate americans who had broken guitars and defective drums I thank you sincerely. It sad that numerous guitar arrived DOA and several drums and guitars died after just few hours of play.

Has a Canadian, I hope that Harmonix will fix these issues before the release date in Canada (I really doubt it tough). And I sincerely hope that they will exchange those poor quality instruments with high quality instruments that we deserve all.

Thanks for this stress test (wich they failed) and I hope they'll hear your complaints before those peripherals hit our stores.

Have a nice day americans Fellows...

[monstrado]

what? You fail at English no offense.

I doubt they will ship you a "new and improved" rock band.

[Bakkster]

I think Canada needs to get back on HMX's good side first. You know, after Sean got his life threatened and somebody else posted pornography of the homosexual variety, Canada has been a bit of a sore spot on these forums.

Just saying, our neighbors to the north should be nice to HMX, lest they decide to send you all peripherals that don't work in your igloos ;)

Also, you're welcome. I am enjoying my stress test! :cool:

[Jixzer]

I don't either, but I believe there will be better quality aftermarket peripherals soon. That should solve most of the problems. I would be willing to bet that Harmonix or EA are chewing out the manufacturers that made the instruments. I know they didn't want the instruments to break as often as they did. Just a guess, but that could be one of the reasons there are no individual instruments being sold just yet. I'm optimistic that way.

im english, so agree it would be nice that when it is finally released over here its free of these issues, but if you're going to be sarcastic then please spell correctly otherwise it kind of loses its sting

[nicko68]

Has a Canadian...

Probably a French Canadian? :)

There goes the reputation we painstakingly built up over the past 140 years of being polite and apologetic. :)

Seriously, that was digusting the way some Canadians acted. In the grand scheme of things, it's only a game.

[dodgyknees]

Has a Canadian


Dick Van Dyke is Canadian?

aaah, com on muury poppens!

[Layklant]

Yeah! Like you said, english is not my first language, and sarcasm in this thread was not intended. So, does anyone could tell me where my english is bad so I will be able to mprove it! Thank you! :)

I know that -Has a Canadian- should be As a Canadian.. What else?
Edit : Yeah.. I noticed a lot of errors.. So forget it... I apologize.

I don't know about those (the threat and the porn thing) but I think you got it the other way around. Harmonix/EA clearly showed canadians they weren't as important by pushing the release date by one month and Harmonix/EA, Sony and Microsoft have no problem at all overpricing DLC for people north of the border. So since we're getting shafted on the release date and on the DLC prices Harmonix could try and make thing betters with canadians, I know Microsoft and Sony won't.

[foolosophy]

Ok, well I'm Canadian and I know that the chances of us getting fixed peripherals is slim to none. If we do get them then we will likely be delayed till 08. I don't know about you but I'd rather get the game in December and take my chances of possibly getting faulty peripherals (at least you can always just get a replacement from EA).

[Tarzanman]

You're very welcome for the stress test. We here in America are very cognizant of then general lack of opportunity, creativity, and competence in Canada when it comes to these matters (I can't quite recall the number of hit games that have originated from north of the border, but I am reasonable certain that the number is less than or equal to 1).

We also understand that one half of Canadians are busy pretending to be French while the other half are trying to keep the aforementioned half from seceding from the country, and that very few people in the provinces & territories have the time or inclination to be bothered with faulty gear. No one likes whiny kids, which is why the US has been gracious enough to treat its ******ed northern brother like the children we fully suspect them to be.

Also, if you can find time away from slurping down your maple syrup, hockey, bocci-ball, or kissing the buttocks of Her Royal Majesty the Queen... then maybe you will be able to try Rock Band out for yourself.... that is, assuming we get around to pushing any copies up there through customs.

In the meantime, please feel free to keep skipping across the border to purchase items that Canadians are too stupid, too lazy, or too bound by Quebec-sponsored Franco-laws to produce for themselves.

You are very welcome.

Don't feed trolls, kids.

[Tarzanman]

Don't feed trolls, kids.

But its so fun (see my reply above yours) :-)

[bounchfx]

I am enjoying the game thoroughly a month before you get it.

This beta is awesome. I get my new guitar sometime early next week and until then I'm using my roommates which has been flawless.

best. stress. test. ever.

[fiddilydee]

Well I was one of those bastard Canadians who protested the delay (mainly the general lack of info surrounding it). I drove accross the border yesterday and was the first person to buy one from the Calais ME Wal-Mart, they had 8 and hadn't sold one. I guess the demand wasn't what they thought it would be. Oh well works out good for me, I wonder if I'll ever play Mass Effect again (purchased the day before).

[4degrees]

Hehe I was thinking the same thing. Cheap beta testing :P

[Hade01]

Oh well works out good for me, I wonder if I'll ever play Mass Effect again (purchased the day before).

You are more than welcome to mail Mass Effect to me, then. :P

No hurt was intended, I hope you weren't insulted. Your post was completely understandable.

[nicko68]

meh, I just got GHIII for my Wii finally, so I'm having fun with that. I can wait for RB.

[rockst01]

hahah, you think they're going to redesign the peripherals in the 3 weeks remaining before the canadian release? Hah fat chance.

[4degrees]

hahah, you think they're going to redesign the peripherals in the 3 weeks remaining before the canadian release? Hah fat chance.But one can hope that they do in the 3 months before it's released europe.

Hitler should have invaded canada and burned up the canadiens instead of the jews.

[J-Rock]

Comments like that should have their author banned from the forums. How would you liked it if a talked about the genocide of idiots like your kind?

.

Ubisoft Montreal? hello?

Please don't start a country war, it's really easy to ***** from either side and I won't feed it. For the guy who just talked about the stress test, well I kind of agree. I'm sure he didn't mean to offend someone. It's just so frustrating to have to wait a month.. so I can say that it's a probably a rationnalisation and down deep, he really want the game NOW, even if people are having hardware issues. He just try to find positive in a negative situation..

Yes you can ***** about my english cause I'm also a french canadian.

Wow so much hate. You should see a shrink...

[DaMan12]

Hitler should have invaded canada and burned up the canadiens instead of the jews.

Haha, its quotes like these that really show why America is the laughing stock of the world. No one outside of your country has any respect for you and your nation of ignorant, uneducated, inbred hicks.

Canada is a great, very well respected nation and comments like that are disgusting.

[sonicbrew]

oh look, yet another useless thread...

[MagicDrop]

knock on wood I do not have these problems everyone is talking about. after many hours of play on all insturments they all still work. Hope it stays that way.

Wow, what an ignorant jackass.
Half and half? There's only one province who speaks french and they're not pretending. Their ancestors got there before your ancestors got where you are. They got many more generation there than you have.

As for number 1 hit games coming from Canada? How about Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell, the Prince of Persia serie and Assassin's Creed? Those are all from "french" Canada to boot. There's also nearly all the Need for Speed, a lot of NBA Live, Bully, The Warriors, Painkiller, Neverwinter Nights, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, Jade Empire, Mass Effect, Def Jam Vendetta, the SSX serie, Super Mario Strikers, Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem, Scarface, Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction, The Simpsons: Hit & Run, etc.

I look at my videogames collection and most of them come from Canada and Japan, not from the U.S.

How about Electronic Arts, you know, the company which distibutes Rock Band, also opened a studio in Montreal, "french" Canada because of videogame creation talents there too?

Let's not even talk about political and social reputation throughout the world of Canada compared to the U.S.

[DaMan12]

I have no respect for anybody who sits and watches cars drive in circles for 4 hours.

[Zastai]

Silly Canadians don't realize that they're just the second wave of the beta/stress test, so that RB consists of only the purest awesomosity when it's released here in Europe.
So yes, a big kudos to both Americans and Canadians for helping HMX give Europe a superior product.

LEIK OMGZZZZ OMG TEH IGLOO PPL THREATENED HARMONIX AND POSTED PORNOGRAPHY MEANS ALL CNADIANSZ ARE HORRIBLE AND G@Y!!!!

Seriously.

We're all just beta testing for the real target audience: Brazil.:p

Don't make me laugh. More competent in creativity? Oh yes, Madden NFL.

Oh yes, you guys are really mature, really.

Well done trying to actually make an insult, you.

Riight. It's totally Canada's fault that Harmonix can't produce enough to meet demand, let alone translate boxes.

[Bakkster]

I was actually joking, hence the ;).

Apparently Canadians also don't have a sense of humor :p (that means 'just kidding')

[ChaosElement]

You weren't joking about the first part, hence it was obvious that you were generalising, which is quite dumb.

We do, except, we know how to tell good jokes from bad ones.

[Bakkster]

Now you're generalizing. ;) Pretty sure not every Canadian has a sense of humor, just like I'm pretty sure not every Canadian likes to post pornography on internet forums

This whole thread was just a joke. I can't believe these flames.

I dunno man, I've not had any issues yet and we played the hell outta it for about 15 hours straight the other night. I think there are some QC issues but overall most people are working fine. My only complaint with the guitar is the tilt sensor and the singing the doot doot parts are stupid.
