    What is Rock Band World...?
    Hey gang!


    If you log in today, you may notice our "Rock Band Dashboard" Facebook App looks a little different. We're prepping some (fracking AWESOME) new features for when Rock Band Blitz launches, and rolled out the new app to get it all tested and ready for you all on Aug. 28.

    You can't play with all the new features yet - some of them require Rock Band Blitz - but you can still add items to your Wishlist, check out the new Shopping Cart feature, and keep track of your RB3 scores.

    Please be patient if you run into errors - we're actively tweaking things as we're finding issues. Feel free to include feedback in this thread. We'll have a more formal announcement detailing the new features closer to Rock Band Blitz's launch. But just for a level set, expect this to be VERY MUCH in a beta state until RB Blitz launches to the world. GET HYPE!

    More info on Rock Band World coming next week.

    Earning coins from goals! Neat! It looks like there's a lot of cool stuff to be revealed.

    Unfortunately, like the old Dashboard, this one doesn't work at all in Safari. Clicking the headers just gives an error message. It works fine for me in Chrome. Hopefully just a temporary issue. I tried clearing my cookies and caches and such, so I'm pretty sure it's not just me.

    Keep on being super cool, Harmonix.

    Is there any plans for integrating HMX employee's best runs on songs using this or through community events?

    I really want to do that :3

    I checked it out after seeing this thread posted. It looks to be really awesome, and I'll be there to try it out on the 29th!

    Err, well maybe the 30th.. 29th is reserved for Blitz.

    quick question, the things like goals and score wars in this, can they also be done from in-game? because if i have to go to facebook everytime i want to start a score war then i'm pretty much not gonna bother >_>

    like the way it looks though :D

    Issues that I see:

    All of my scores are wiped
    Bullet For My Valentine shows up as latest DLC
    Songs added to shopping cart don't display prices (and I don't like the way they're organized, but I'll live)

    Speaking of the shopping cart, will it open up every time I log into XBL?
    "Your Shopping Cart is a list of exisitng DLC songs you’d like to purchase - you’ll see this list on your console when you play!" is pretty vague and I don't want to have another layer of menus to navigate to start playing.

    This is a cool idea, Cipher! We have certain limitations on how we can build goals, but we might be able to do something similar, like "Beat TheOverNord's high score of 1,223,150 on Cult Of Personality" for a goal.

    I'm open to any and all goal brainstorming y'all want to do, as I'll be the guy creating them.

    I'd repeat that old Community Manager motto, "Try it, you might like it!"
