Lets not forget about "Before I Forget" on GH3.

The only song i enjoyed on GH3 (for the chart) was Cliffs of Dover, the rest i never touched...

HMX does make mistakes from time to time, but they're relatively rare, and some could be chalked up to stylistic or aesthetic choices. Usually what I see people complaining about is the tendency since slightly before the release of RB3 for guitar charts to be somewhat "hyper-realistic".

In this specific instance, though... your diagram suggests there should be a note in front of the 2nd green, and frankly like others in this thread, I don't hear what you're talking about. There is a longer sustain, which is why it's charted like that, but I don't hear an extra note on any of the tracks there.

Like i said earlier, I knew how people would suggest the green part they dont hear, but the sustain is blatantly obvious. As a matter of fact all the sustain chords in the chorus should be the length and space as the BO to YB chord. Listen for that kind of break in the long sustains. Other people can hear it too, so I know it's not just me. I can live with it, but it bothers me that it's a mistake is all.

Well the songs are charted with just that instrument playing they can't miss out notes. The other guitar note you are claiming to be missing must be on another track somewhere.

And then you've got to put in playability in perspective as well. If its an impossible rhythm to play it loses its fun imo.

Yes, it is pretty obvious and I remember being pretty surprised when I first played it that they charted that part as one sustain, nearly made me over-strum the first time I played it because I knew it was coming, but they didn't chart it (the bridge in "Blackened" has a similar mischart on guitar). But, like other people said, HMX makes mistakes sometimes, even though I think that's a bigger mistake than normal, it's not going to be fixed ever. It is what it is.

I'm sorry, I'm still only hearing one sustained guitar note (as opposed to immediately muted like in the earlier section) PLUS one sustained bass note. Not two separate notes on guitar on those green sustains.

I took the section into practice mode on guitar to make sure, and (like Magnet posted above) turned BG instruments down to make sure; the guitar stem only has single sustained notes (as opposed to immediately muted notes) on the sections in question. You clearly only hear single strums there, and no extra harmonics indicating either another string or the interruption of a second strum.

There might be something else that you're mistaking for a second note, but whatever that might be, it's not on the lead guitar stem as far as I can hear.

Bullet For My Valentine does use rhythm guitar, so perhaps that's what you're hearing on the background stem? Whatever it is, it's so subtle that I can't hear whatever you're saying you hear, and I definitely don't hear it on the lead guitar stem.

I think I speak for everyone else when I say that Scream Aim Fire was the bigger upset that week, and that wasn't even the worst mistake they've made.

Well as a guitar player I could tell you that Rock Band does some pretty accurate charts. Ever since they added Pro charts I feel like the basic notes don't capture it exactly how it is in the real guitar, an example of that is "In My Head" by QOSTA, where the intro has a single notes instead of a chord which appears at the end the solo. Although this is strangely confusing chart is best just to think that Basic Guitar is just for fun not a real instrument.
