Console: XBox 360

Info:
As stated before, mic overdrive wasn't working.

I also noticed glitching with the scrolling of the notes. This came in during Road Challenge. It would start slowing down glitcing wise, and cause everyone to miss they're notes.

Now I have read many reports, but I want to state this one. My wired guitar controller from RB 1 didn't even get recognized by Rock Band 3. Though I could power on my xbobx, I could hit start at the menu. Someone let me know if anything wired besides a mic will work.

With the tamborine/cowbell parts for the mic, sensitivty couldn't be turned down and you could hear the clapping on the mic inside of the sound of the instrument.

Don't know if this was a problem, but I was having problems redeeming codes. It might be my code and a Gamestop issue, but just let me know.

Just a Minor suggestion, but can a left handed player have a left handed character please?

For some reason when the mic is shown in the stand it will sometimes either occasionally or quite frequently pulsate, bounce, move, or even shoot into the singers head. It seems to do this in rhythm to the beat (almost as if it's following the bass drum).

Here are the details:
- PS3 version
- All songs were played in Quickplay (I haven't played any other mode yet)
- Played solo on Expert Guitar & then Expert Drums
- Songs in order, where I noticed this:

New Order (happened very frequently)
Burning Down the House (only saw it happen once)
Touch Me (occasionally)
Riders on the Storm (half-way through the song)
Our Lips are Sealed (occurred after the drum break)
All Mixed Up (occasionally).

Similarly I've seen the bass guitar do the same thing. It seems to stutter or twitch - separating itself from the character model and back to normal very quickly. I've only noticed it occurring on the body of the bass though - so the fretboard and hand animations are unaffected. Very strange and somewhat creepy.

Wow, I came in here primarily to post the same thing. Ever since I first noticed it, I can't stop seeing it, and it seems to happen on all songs at random times. Mic and guitar body jumping positions like crazy.

It's not a huge deal in terms of gameplay I guess, but it's so annoying once you notice it because then it's like all I see when it happens and it puts a huge damper on the experience. I'd love this to be fixed in a patch.

Other things I noticed were trouble activating vocal overdrive and the drummer looking like he was having a near seizure at the end of one song. I wish I could remember which one song.

Also, there's one venue shot I've seen several times that shows from far behind the crowd. I've only played small indoor venues so far, and that shot creates a lot of graphical glitches with rendering the audience properly.

As for feature requests, drop-in/drop-out gameplay without pausing the game is a must. It is not at all a smooth feature currently, as it disrupts the flow of gameplay each time someone wants to join in or stop playing. Yes, it's still loads better than the old way of waiting for a song to end, however, there's a lot of room for improvement here.

Hello,

I noticed that the crowd does not sing along tunes anymore, which is REALLY a shame, especially when playing in surround sound.

Why is that an omission this time around ? The extra work needed to add that might have been a trouble but boy it does add to the fun! My friends and I sometimes even all sang along with the crowd even though no one used the microphone.

Please, please, bring it back! If not possible, bring it back partly or progressively.

Thanks!

Bass, keyboard and guitar online at the same time would be nice.

FWIW I didn't have any vocal overdrive issues with the wireless mics.

System: Xbox 360

When selecting songs to play,and then change the filter by Bands,RB3 game freezzes up and i have to reboot my gaming platform and try it again.

Also,i am very disappointed with Harmonix,i have spent several,LOTS,of money in this game.I was screwed over for the RB2 launch in Canada,had to wait another week,and this time No KEYBOARD BUNDLE with game,that i pre ordered months ago,and no game token for 3 free songs as promised on top of the free 3 doors tunes.
This is twice that this happened to me,there will certainly not be a 3rd AT ALL!!!
Marketing team needs a boot in the behind,Harmonix knew this and have done NOTHING to fix this or pump this out to the gamers!!
Thanks for the BIG disappointment,thanks for the bugs in the game,thanks for no Bundles,thanks for no tokens!!

PS3
Drums: Ion kit

I'm not sure if this is a compatibility issue with the Ions or not, I have no stock kit to test with, but:

When flipping through song lists, the yellow and blue pads will occasionally behave as if they are the triangle button, bringing up song info instead of moving up and down through the list. It seems to be completely random, I tried seeing if there was any predictability to it, but I couldn't find any. I can just be rolling on the yellow pad to move up through the list, and at any point it might open song info.

Chalk another up with the digital glitch sound during playback. Happened multiple times in the same song (sorry don't remember the exact song).

PS3 Slim 120gb
Happened in quickplay on pro keys medium with another player on guitar.

The random stand-ins are EXTREMELY annoying, and they're actually the only issue I'm having so far. I know you guys wanted the game to change the sex of the vocalist to match the respective song, but this is really jarring, especially when the game always seems to assign my female drummer to sing the male vocal parts. If it's impossible to tie a stand-in to a specific instrument, could an option be implemented where you set stand-ins for particular line-ups? Like... you'd have your stand-ins set for songs with male vocals and then choose another specific set for songs with a female vocalist. I know there are other set-ups that throw the band off dramatically, but these configurations rarely seem to occur as the keys only seem to show up if another part is completely missing.

We filled all slots in RB2 and wished there were more. With Rock Band 3 coming out, we were speculating about how many more character slots we would get, only to find out we get less than half. It was quite a bummer. I know I would love it (and I'm sure others would too) if you awesome guys at Harmonix could find a way to increase the character limit.

Thank you so much for your time! I hope you take my suggestion into consideration.

I agree with this entirely
