You're sure you have the crowd volume the same between both games?

That may have been it (though I'm fairly sure that both were set at the default), but I'd definitely heard other sing-a-longs in RB2. Maybe the ones that seem new were recorded more quietly.

I thought I said it started at the top, not at the regular "middle-of-green". Okay, maybe the meter will just slowly automatically rise, then.


I have to wonder, does anyone LIKE the bobblehead frontman animations? "Because [TheHundredDollarHeadache or one of his character/animation-freak friends] hates it" is not an acceptable answer, so try to come up with something else.

That totally was going to be my answer, well either your name or someone else's

Thanks for pointing out my loophole. :p

This may have been mentioned, but a better performance review would be helpful. At the moment we see % of each section, but what I would like to see is a replay of track vs hit timings so you can see your hit performance in relation to the chart.

This way you can see if you are playing before the note, after the note or completely missing a small section of that killer solo. This would be especially good for Drums to help monitor double-hits and ghost-signals.

I don't know how useful this would be, but at least something along those lines might be a better calibration setup. Like maybe being able to see the hitbox and adjust it back or forth and maybe like a visual clue as to where the song audio is so you can line it up with the note.

Basically, a screen with three 'tracks'. Like HITBOX BEZEL AUDIO and you could highlight each one and slide them around a bit to line them up how you like it. That would have to be more intuitive than plus or minus five milliseconds.

Better calibration is not useful for finding what the problem is on drums because you may hit a certain combination too hard for a problem to appear due to x-talk being over zealous. Which is why I suggest a way to show what was played in combination of what was played.

Although better calibration options would be nice also :)

This is a bizarrely specific bug, but I may have mentioned before that profile switching often doesn't work when going to and from vocals in the Xbox 360 version. I just found out that this only happens when there's a chatpad connected. I don't know if that's something you can throw in if you do another patch, or if it's a hardware issue I'll forever have to deal with, but there you go.

I wouldn't count on a fix for that. At least not without being bundled in something greater, obviously. It wasn't Rock Band, but I have a game that freezes if a USB stick that isn't formatted for 360 use is inserted.

Technically, non-supported devices are just that: non-supported. Neat find, though.
