I don't get that "mother, father, serpent, the beast" thing. Is that a reference?

Wow holy poo poo the Hysteria chart is flat out terrible and goes out of its way to make the song as difficult to play as possible. Supermassive black hole has some weird thing going on too where your guitar is extremely silent.

Which chart? Guitar or Bass? The bass chart is the first time I've seen anyone get something that sounds right, every custom I've ever tried of the song does a good job with the main riff and then falls apart for the chorus. The guitar solo charting seemed a little odd though, like it could've been charted elsewhere easier.

Hey rocksmith bros. I just started messing with the Muse pack tonight (yes!) and have been having a good time with muscle memory and hysteria. I am pretty bad at this point, but I connect well with these songs. It is amazing what rocksmith has done for me so far. Pulled my strat out from 10 years of dust, restrung it with some silver bullets, and it has been a blast ever since. I hope the bass support is as good as the rhythm/lead because I got some strings for my old bass and that is next up on memory lane. My only gripe is that my old amp is not that great and I am way too cheap to upgrade that right now. If only this had existed years ago.

Freaking uPlay Launcher process didn't actually close when I closed its window a few days ago, so now Steam thinks I've played Rocksmith more than any other game I have by a fair margin. Thanks for making me a liar uPlay.

I'd be so happy if companies just let Steam be the only DRM, but ah well.

I picked up the lead riff of Knights of Cydonia by ear and verified it with the tab, playing it low on the fretboard, but Rocksmith has it charted higher (lots of 7 and 10s). Even the tabs for the song showed low frets... but, I found some performance videos and there he is laying down those licks high on the fretboard.

Yeah the people that do the tabs in Rocksmith look at performance videos and if that's how they actually play it, that's how it'll be in the game.

So is there a way to get the RS1 export/DLC on Mac as of yet? Just switched over from 360, and I want to play The Thrill is Gone so much... (Gave my 360 copy to a friend. Still owed 'em for loaning me a decent bass for a few months to play RS2012 anyway.)

Can't you still buy a copy of RS1? If not, get a key from Amazon when they have it on sale again?

Then it unlocks all the content and any DLC you purchase for RS1 will show up. I was going to hold out and try to find a cheap PC copy with cable to do 2 player but it never came up before the sale hit. Then I ended up getting lucky and finding a bare cable at target close out price for only 8$

I can confirm what the previous posters said, if you buy RS1 on Steam along with the import tool then those songs will play in your Mac Rocksmith 2014 along with any RS1 DLC. Works great!

I get so loving angry when the Rocksmith crowd starts chattering over my playing so loud I can't even hear it. If a real crowd did that I'd walk off, I swear to god I'd go full Morrissey and tell them all to gently caress themselves and go home.

That is the only thing I miss from RS1, is having normal mode and then you do your concerts later and if you do well you get an encore song.

I was at a Guitar Center the other day with the boyfriend to buy him a strap and strap locks, and we chatted up with this sales associate which eventually brought up Rocksmith. Apparently Guitar Center is endorsing Band Fuse, she(Sales Associate) told us "Well, unlike Rocksmith where you use use a cheap plastic guitar you can use a real guitar with Band Fuse." I can't blame her for not knowing, Rocksmith's not that popular and everyone that correlates video games with music = Guitar Hero.

I hope they both get popular so that there's some competition and they can steal features from one another.

I'd expect people who work in a music store to know it by now because of people coming in to buy guitars for it, but eh. As for not as popular, it's no Guitar Hero in its heyday but their sales were apparently quite well enough to do a sequel and market it a lot harder. Among the people you know that play guitar, who hasn't at least heard about it by now?

If my mom knows what Rocksmith is without me telling, a music store employee should drat well know. But then again, this is Guitar Center we're talking about. I swore to never walk in there again after an employee basically insulted me in my face when I told him that, no, I don't want to spend $120 to have you file my nut down when I can just do it myself.

I had unlocked some sections in master mode, but today I got better at some of those. After experiencing what it was like for the hints totally disappear it was a little crazy but awesome. This game makes it feel like riding a bike. First you have your training wheels on and then you have your dad holding the back of your bike and suddenly he lets go and you are riding on your own. I don't think I ever got this far with RS1, but now I feel pretty confident that once I work on master mode on a track like this it will ween you away from being dependent on the game which is what I was hoping.

A desire to reach down and look at crowds up at across the world and rock them to the very core. It's the siren of youth and experience sounding off as a single unit, as a band. You, are the band. We are the fuse.
