Your Rock Band Epic Fail of the week

[lvmathemagician]

I hate the pro keys part of Radar Love. I always fall asleep waiting for the next set of notes. Great song, dreadful keys chart.

Well, this isn't excactly the fail of this week, but it kind of spans over several weeks.

My pre-ordered Mustang had kept me waiting for six weeks. I had hoped to get it before the holidays, but obviously didn't. I left for my parent's place for three weeks to spend the holidays there. And what do you know, the guitar was mailed to my apartment's address a couple of days after I left. For nearly two weeks I've been anxiously waiting to get back to start playing. And to add insult to injury, I just had to go to a local store today and see the Mustang there.

I'm hoping to get it on monday to end this streak of fail.

I hate the pro keys part of Radar Love. I always fall asleep waiting for the next set of notes. Great song, dreadful keys chart.

I hate the drum part too. I got gypped out of 5 stars on Hard - not even Llama holds this "honor", and Expert's ending is a mess. I actually attempt to play along to the bass part - one of the best bass parts - with my left hand, and accidentally play the note breaking my combo.

On the topic of needless parts, Yoshimi's "bass" is exactly the same as the keys part, minus the stuff to do outside of the choruses. Managed to give me pathetic 3 and 4 star runs.

GLARING OMISSION: I got those pathetic 3 and 4 star runs on PRO bass, making me restart like five times.

Got the Keyboard for Christmas, started playing around with Pro Keys, and got hooked.

Took RB stuff over to a LAN party with friends. Found out that All-Instruments Mode doesn't work at all as I had thought. SO, instead of enjoying the experience, all my friends got irritated I only wanted to play the "****ty keyboard songs" and that one had to play drums or vocals all the time. >__>

3 stars on In The Meantime. Expert Vocals. I swear, the singer isn't even in the same key as the instruments.

Until we can hide performances on the website, I'll keep reporting these horrid performances, along with the fact that the website proudly reports all performances no matter how bad, as epic fails.

I'm not sure if this counts, but whatever...
BOTH my RB1 and RB2 guitars broke, and not a single gamestop in my area has the RB3 Strat. So now I have to wait until I can go back over there, buy myself a $100 gift card, order it online, and wait some more.

But I have my RB3 Keyboard, so at least I have something to do :/.

It's been a while since I've played vocals, and I think I'm a bit out of practice. After taking a sodding hour to pass "Reptilia", I decided to go down the list of RB1/2/LEGO/DLC devil-tiered songs. "Painkiller" went fine, but I failed "Somebody to Love" on the second to last phrase, then failed "Creepin' Up the Backstairs", at which point I decided it was getting kinda late and I should give it a rest.

(on the other hand, gold stars on "I Love Rock n Roll" and "Oh Pretty Woman")

Dave Mustaine had Jackson, ESP, and most recently Dean signature models. Any of the Jackson King V's would be close enough to his actual Jackson model.

The sad thing is that they do not have a Jackson Rhoads for "Crazy Train".

To be honest, I was being just a tad facetious, but you know, I actually did create a character in RB2 named Davey Megadeth that I used quite often who was modeled after a young post-Metallica Dave Mustaine. In all seriousness, I have always loved how you could create characters in RB who closely resemble Rock icons. I also created Eddie Van Halen and Ronnie James Dio in the original RB, so nothing is too crazy or over-the-top when it comes to Rock.

For some stupid reason, I can't seem to FC We Will Rock You on expert drums as I invariably hit the rim of my snare at least once.

In fact, I always seem to find a way to mess up even the simplest beats if they repeat for long enough.

I had all kinds of problems with this as well. Turns out I was getting some kind of double hit, as I did 100% it.

So I decided to bust out the drums tonight at my New Year's Eve party and I only got to jam out to 5 songs before this happened during the drum solo of Queen's "One Vision".

Hopefully with a little bit of gorilla glue and some patience, I'll be up and drumming again.
