It's sucked all the fun out of it. I think I could practice til the cows come home and will still find it incredibly difficult to ever 5 star/gold star all of the Blitz songs to get the final few trophies (achievements).

When I first bought it, I thought, great, this will be the first Rock Band game i'll actually 100%, but that's rather unlikely now.
And yet another "Casual" player has found the forums and disagrees with Harmonix's decision to nerf Flame notes. An informal poll of this forum would find (my guess) that maybe 85-90% of the people who posted in this thread are against the Flame note nerf.

Are we really suppose to believe that this trend is reversed for all Non forum posters. That somehow all of those people who do not post on the forum were happy with the nerf?

No one on this forum has seen any evidence anywhere that this was a move favored by the majority of the community. All we have to go off of is these forums and this thread which is overwhelmingly against the decision to nerf flame notes.

It's not often I see a game company go against what the majority of their players want. There has been no evidence that the majority wants Flame notes nerfed. there is evidence that plenty of loyal, faithful, Harmonix customers do not agree with the decision to nerf flame notes.
