Power-up Rebalancing

[T-Hybrid]

Out of curiosity... theoretically, *can* gold star cutoffs be changed from server-side tweaking? Or is the GS calculation baked into the software and with no means to override via server communication?

I feel like they've altered GS cut-offs in the past, but that it was via patch. I can't imagine that'd be server side since the GS appears during gameplay. Unless they load it via Rock Central in that brief moment it tries to connect before the song starts.

Will some high scores fall now, directly because of these changes? Yep. Will people get furious about it? Yep. "It's just a game" ... but some people take their gaming very seriously.

I think as long as they don't NERF the rest of the power-ups things will be okay, as the same three power-ups will still produce the same results as they did previously.

What I find interesting is if they can tweak power-ups via the server....can they also add new ones at some point?
