Vocal Career Score - Still 0?

[RockBandoleer]

I managed to get 1,000,000 points for guitar, bass and drums, as part of the achievements. And, of course, when going online, your career score shows up under your name.

No score, though, for vocals. Is that because only "Harmony Career" vocals are kept track of?

[TurboStitchCW]

yes

Aha! Thanks. Now those mike stands can't come quick enough for the wife and me!

Both are kept track of (you can toggle between Solo and Harmonies scores in the Solo Quickplay menu - circle button I believe for PS3) but as stated, the only one that counts for the display score in Band Quickplay is the Harmonies career.

You can do the Harmonies career solo quite happily by the way.

And just to clarify, you don't need multiple mics to do the Harmonies mode, it just means all of the vocal tracks will show up and you'll have a hell of a time getting any Double Fabs, let alone Triple Fabs.

Yeah, it's just a mite confusing to sing solo with all the tracks showing up.

OK, so if I have a mike and guitar, and I use a stand and sing and play, I set the vocals on harmony to add to my career score when doing multiplay from my own console. And it will add to the career score?

No. Career score only counts solo scores, nothing done with a band (after all, how can you determine what each individual instrument scored when you've got band score multipliers and unison bonuses?). You have to do Harmonies by yourself in either Quickplay or Story mode (not Chapter Challenges) to add to your Vocal career score.

If you want to voxtar that's something else again. The solo careers are exactly that - solo.

Now that's the most helpful answer I've seen in days. Thanks for the warning... sucks though...

It's been like that since RB1, and I stated why in the edit to my post.
