RB3 Request a Feature, Bug Report and Suggestion Thread (no song requests)

[SirDavidTLynch]

We've already leaderboards for as many as 10 parts on three consoles. Harmonix would have to allocate server space for over 120 leaderboards for one song. Even just going by the four classic parts + pro drums, that's 20 leaderboards for over 2700 songs, and that's not even getting into band leaderboards, where you're also dealing with different instruments used.

On the keyboard you can choose to play the bass or guitar parts, but not if there are 2 guitar controllers playing. This means in all instruments mode the keys player is sat around doing nothing most of the time, which sucks in terms of gameplay.

Please allow the keys player to select a string instrument part, regardless of the other instruments playing.

Also, I can't believe it's not possible to give a score for the vocal part in all instruments mode! Even if it is not recorded anywhere, the main thing we want to see is a percentage so we know how good or bad we were.

So, you're asking them to allow multiple people to play the same instrument (i.e., you play the basic guitar chart on keys while someone plays it on 5-button guitar)? If so, that's a very old request.

And a very addressed request. Harmonix has said no on many, many occasions.

Doesn't mean they can't change their mind, but yeah, I don't think it's very likely. I'd rather they fix AIM mode (let 5-7 folks play at the same time) in the next version (RB4) than allow for multiples of the same instrument.

I want RB4 to print money so I can afford more DLC. I figured with some of the requests here, this wouldn't be too out of place.

I'm sure it's been mentioned before, but I would like solo bonuses to not factor into the star cut-off. They're more like solo penalties the way they are now. It doesn't affect scores, I know, but it's a bummer to see a bunch of boring old silver stars where I used to have golds.

Also, I have come to term with the trill-lanes, and while I would prefer they don't show up in future DLC, I don't totally mind them, especially if they are on trills that are actually fast.

Why? A song with a solo brings a huge focus to your instrument. Why shouldn't a lacking performance there destroy your gold stars? I get that there's crazy stuff like HAVING to FC Free Bird's solo, and probably all of DYFLWD's solos, but it's no less problematic than Polly and stuff was in RB2.

I've finally mentally trained myself to just wail on them, instead of trying to match the speed. It's just those bastard ones that start with strums now...

True enough, but I'm talking about when you only miss a few notes of the solo, such as "Blue SKy" by Allman Brothers or any of the Grateful Dead songs. I used to be able to gold those consistently, now I can't. Then again, with the "solo unison OD bonuses," a lot of songs are easier to pass/gold star now.

Yeah, that's what I've learned too. For me, I just have to work on hitting the last note in the trill right.

95% bonus would be fine, the 100% bonus is killer.

Maybe Trill Lanes need to be tweeked slightly. Like HOPO Chords were win RB2.
