    "Big Rock Endings" less fun than normal ending.

    Who else thinks playing these stupid rock endings are alot less fun than just playing the fun ending the way its meant to. It kinda makes sense on drums, in a way, but on guitar you're just randomly hitting notes and strumming as fast as possible rather than going through a fun and fast ho/po solo section. Honestly...

    the idea of a big rock ending is that it's mostly improvised. It's just not technically possible to do that with the guitar and bass lines.

    The solo frets are there for a good reason

    Try doing a power slide while finger tapping them like mad on big rock finishes and tell me that's not fun.

    They are fun but would be way more if it actually played what you did on guitar instead of a set track when you can just tap one button and go through an intricate solo.

    What I like is that it forces the entire band to play perfectly for the 1-5 notes after the ending. If someone misses just one note, the whole thing is blown, and nothing is more fun than shunning your friend for messing that up

    This is the only interesting part to the endings but it probably could have been handled better (as in, like blue solo like sections percentage bonuses for bass and guitar, and no bonus for messing up). Either that or nothing at all. Not much could be done at this point, but for later DLC I don't wanna ruin fun and tricky solos for the sake of these.

    Otherwise it's just random and lame. Especially if you listen to the guitar endings for Foreplay/Long Time, Green Grass and High Tides, and Flirtin' with Disaster and how it would actually be fun to play those rather than going nuts for no reason.

    Oh, and I use the Les Paul or X-Plorer, because honestly, the Fender is not the best peice of equipment.
