    That would effectively screw up pinball anytime you don't have all the lanes charted.

    I have an idea: Let us determine what sort of scores turn up on the score-o-meter to the right of the screen. An option to toggle between pre-fabs (star cutoffs), friends or our personal best score would be neat, as they often clash with each other on replays.

    I have a repeatable bug during game play. So far, I have found 3 songs where the level up marker does not fade to transparent when you reach it. It is super annoying and kills my streak. If you are in Blitz, it's even worse because it fills the whole screen! These songs so far are Take on Me, Ballroom Blitz and Don't Stop Me Now, but I'm slowly going through my large collection. It happens every time the song is loaded, even after system restart. I'm on 360 using Freakish controls.

    This! We need this back. If you have a large collection of songs, it is horrible to have to scroll through hundreds slowly to get to the one you want.

    You can press Y/△ to skip to different categories (which it says at the bottom of the screen). I don't know why they changed it from tapping the button to skip to the next category, but if you get to the bottom you only have to scroll through 26 letters, not hundreds of songs.

    Just wanted to throw out a couple of bugs/few suggestions:

    I had the game freeze up in the middle of playing the Kelly Clarkson song for that "Hard Goal is Hard" dealy. Just froze completely, had to turn off the 360. Nothing unusual going on, and I know that's not particularly helpful with a lack of details, but figured I'd throw it out there.

    There's something strange about the audio signal being sent out during calibration. When I was doing the audio lag calibration, I could only hear the click about half the time, and my amplifier was going nuts switching audio modes. No problems at any other point in the game, but it did make audio calibration a little challenging.

    Not sure if bug or by design, but my recommendations appear to be...lacking. For the score battles, it's constantly picking the same three users for me to challenge - none of which are actually friends of mine. I'm kinda feeling like I'm picking on them at this point. Also, after playing a few songs, every single one of my recommendations is to "Get More Stars" or "Play It Again". It'd be nice if at least one of them was a new song, and there seems to be a lack of variety in the recommendations. After I did the medium Foo Fighters goal, every single recommendation was a Foo Fighters song - I just played a ton of them, I don't really want to play a bunch more. I'd like some new songs because I tend to have an issue picking out a song I feel like playing, especially if it's one that I neglect a lot, which leads to...

    Can we get a Random Song menu item in the song list? I use that constantly in RB3, and am really missing it.

    Edit: Somehow, I truly missed it. I have no idea how I didn't see it, and my head, it hangs in shame.

    Finally, it's probably been mentioned (I haven't gone through the whole thread yet, but wanted to get this out while the suggestions/bugs were fresh in my mind), but can we get rid of that whole "Press A to start" prior to the discovering of DLC and connecting to Rock Central? It's nice to be able to start the app, go grab something to drink, and have it ready to play - having a needless button press right in the middle of it is kinda irritating.

    Thanks!

    I am aware of that option, but it doesn't help as much. Agreed, my "hundreds" was an exaggerated amount, but the annoyance is still genuine. It is just so much easier to use the combo of "Jump to" screen and bumper (or was it trigger?) further from there. The horrid noise it makes doesn't help either.

    Edit: Ok, just compared to RB3 and I think what is putting me off (other than the loss of bumper quick jumps) is that it feels much slower in the scrolling. It also has too much hesitation. When you have 1000+ songs, this becomes an annoyance.

    Thanks!

    I have this option and use it mainly now. ? Maybe change the sorting first and it then shows up at the top? I don't remember if it shows up as default and I can't confirm since xbox is in use at the moment.

    Yes this all of this. I hate that I dont know how close I am to a gold star because I have had friends play a song. Then I have to ask the person if they golded it and then ask how comfortably they golded it. JUST LET ME BEAT THE DUKE!

    I don't know if this has been asked yet but can you guys make it to where you can switch to drums from keys by going the opposite direction and vise versa. I understand that you cant see the notes on the tracks from the other side of the road but I think it would make it much easier.

    I have no idea how I didn't see that before. I shall go hang my head in shame now.
