Some Thoughts on Rock Band Blitz

[Hetz]

Having a re-record of Shine is better than not having it at all. I hope they did more, like December....so that can be released as DLC at some point!

Third Eye Blind's Semi-Charmed Life was the only re-record that I didn't like, but that wasn't exactly because of the fact that it was a re-record...it's just was mixed horribly for RBN and sounded horrible, but somehow got through the peer review at the time. Jumper and Never Let You Go sound great.

As far as official DLC goes, the STYX and EMF re-records are incredible. The EMF song Unbelievable especially sounds nearly identical to the original version.

It does not take long at all to unlock powerups. I´ve played like 15 songs I think and I already have 5 powerups. They are all fun to use too, some of them trigger automatically as well. Though with busier tracks it is hard to look up and see that one of your power ups is ready to deploy, so I have to go on feel of when I think the power-up is ready.

Also, it seems that Harmonix used the expert track or something close to it for the songs because you are playing the notes that you hear (even though it´s only a two note track.) However, this does not mean that if you can´t play expert on a certain instrument, you can´t get good at RB Blitz. On the contrary, I find it easier to play a song after the first try because you will know the rhythm of the tracks and you can easily better your score.

How exactly do the track power-ups work and can you give examples of them? And I'm still confused on the coins and how they work. If I take my PS3 with Blitz on it and move it to somewhere without internet can I still use power-ups?

I would also like to know about songs with two solos at once. Can you switch between solos? Or to you just play whichever starts first?

You can switch between solos. They dont lock you on the track.

Thank you. Did you read that or did you get your review copy?

They've switched between lanes during a solo on the livestream. I WISH I had my review copy, also you would know if I got it

I'm not sure we know anything about the song/track powerups yet - the last power up slot on the right (or maybe i'm wrong and they have mentioned it). Every time I see a live stream it never seems to be working or they choose not to let it work. Any idea what types of power-ups fall under this category?

Ive only seen one and its "Super Guitar" but I have no idea what is it or what it does

[metalkorn]

it clearly results in a guitar with a red cape flying down the tracks with lazers shooting gems.
