THE NUMBERS AREN'T THERE, i.e., Here's why there won't be any more Beatles DLC:

[SirDavidTLynch]

I'm pretty sure there aren't any Beatles character models hidden away in the Rock Band 3 disc, and I'm pretty sure there's no way for Rock Band 3 to load characters for a specific song and use completely different animations.

It would be part of a "patch/Export". Not likely to happen though. Which is a shame.

Yeah, they're not gonna export 45 songs, attach the entire Beatles graphical engine(characters, venues, cues), AND make Rock Band 4 read it all.

If they're charging $20-30 for it, they could probably get away with it. (That'd ideally import/let you play the TBRB DLC too, because at that point, why not?).

I don't even want the Beatles songs to export. Well I'm not against it, but what I really want is more DLC and keyboard/Pro integration into the full Beatles game with avatars & dreamscapes. In other words, TB:RB 2.

I fully understand that it's not likely to ever happen, but dreamers can dream. I think it would be too jarring to have the graphics suddenly shift to Beatles avatars/dreamscapes while playing RB3/4, then shift back to regular graphics for the next song. Forcing setlists to segregate into either Beatles or non-Beatles to avoid that sort of juxtaposition would only slightly better than needing to get up to swap discs.

Okay, first of all, I don't come to the forums very often. When I do, it's usually because I'm looking for something specific. But, I play this game for hours on end nearly every day. I've got around 1,250 songs on RB3, but I play TB:RB way more than RB3. I'm excited about the new 2112 DLC, but I still love this Beatles game. Like so many others, I've been hoping that we'd eventually get some new Beatles DLC, but as my rankings improve on each song, it's becoming apparent to me that the numbers aren't there to sustain any new content.

I'm currently ranked 172 in the solo Drum Career leaderboards on X-Box, with a score of 5,010,000. I've got #1 rankings on 18 songs right now, and this is where it becomes painfully clear how few of us there actually are. For example, I recently became the 139th person to achieve the #1 ranking on I Am The Walrus. Now, really, that song is part of the game disc, and based on difficulty it seems to me that number is way low. In contrast, I long ago became the 2,019th person to achieve #1 on Michelle, which WAS DLC. Sure, it's an easier song, but SO easy that this number should be WAY higher, if there were that many people who bought it. A month or two ago, I became the 21st person to hit #1 on Lovely Rita. These kinds of numbers make me understand why Viacom was so disappointed that they wanted out! And these numbers tell me that Harmonix is not lying when they say they don't see any profit potential in future Beatles DLC. Bummer!!!

Don't rely on Leaderboards to gauge the popularity of this game, I've had to climb back up the boards more than once for my scores disappeared after deleting saved games, I've also moved up on some boards after not playing it which shouldn't happen, it's not at all an accurate yardstick to measure the success of this excellent game...:-)

Oh god, this thread again....

[CaptainKicker]

Funny how these threads never dies.

[ThatAuthoringGroup]

Yeah now that the main RB franchise is winding down and most likely will be coming to a close due to lack of players, the people that think one of the offshoot games is coming back are really fooling themselves.
