I'm clearly not terribly bright. 2 and a half years into this people are still asking us how to inject customs (we have tutorials and Nemo developed a tool to do it). You clearly are in the high percentile if you only missed the usefulness of C3 CON Tools.

Which of the new Rush/Black Sabbath tracks are good for pure vocalists? Half of the rush stuff I've played has a 5 minute Neil Pert interlude. Also, what are some hidden gems of the vocal customs in general? I just got Stacy's Mom yesterday, and most of the jazz/country releases.

For Rush, only La Villa Strangiato (which is an instrumental) and By-Tor... which has a long interlude are not that fun on vocals. Anything else maybe except for the first 2 albums is good. The Analog Kid is probably my favourite of the bunch. farottone fucked around with this message at 02:32 on Aug 22, 2015 |

One of those sorts of things is my thread of customs that existed prior to C3. Everything that I've cleaned up and re-released through C3 is no longer available in that thread, but there's still lots of stuff there. It's not C3 quality, but it's a bit more polished than a direct port from GH :-)

You guys didn't know? Why do you think pksage, nyx and I have our voice in C3 videos but not farottone? Because if you heard him, you'd know. I traveled to Milan last year and met him. This is the only photograph he let me take. Sorry it's low quality, I was using a lovely cellphone at the time.

So I haven't really been following the game since the announcement. Have they said how the old instruments are going to work yet? USB dongle of some kind, I assume? Also are they going to be selling the new instruments separately? I'm thinking of just getting the guitar bundle at launch, then getting the drums later.

Wait, so wired instruments and the Ion drum rocker won't work? That really sucks. I don't think I ever had a set of wireless drums. And I'm a drummer. I think I have one or two wireless guitars, so that's good. I had the Lips microphones, so I guess those are a no go, too. Has anyone talked about a pro drum option for the new platform? I had hundreds of songs on the 360 and know I need to move to the Bone for this but I really want good drums...

There is a cymbal kit for the RB4 drums, and seeing as all that drum info is baked in with the animations, I would assume it will work.

The current word is one adapter that connects to the Xbox One and then your wireless Xbox 360 controllers connect to that adapter. That's on Xbox. PS4 will just accept the PS3 dongles and the controllers connect to the dongles like they do now.

KiddieGrinder posted:I doubt they'd make such a big mistake in the data. I'm sure they differentiated between multiplayer online or locally, and single player was completely separate. The follow-up survey to the one they referenced first asked if you'd pre-ordered yet or no, then asked a bunch of reasons why you might not have yet if you said you didn't. One of the options, after a bunch about hardware compatibility, was "I'm waiting for more information" which half-hid a third screen of other reasons someone might not have pre-ordered yet. You also couldn't choose more than one on the second screen, I don't think. There's just a lot of questions and conditions that, yeah, I'd imagine were taken into account, but then why not go into them if you're going to start delving into specific statistics? Was there weighting for the amount those given people spent on the game / in DLC? What was the range of dates they used for play sessions in that data, and how much did that percent drop over the course of Rock Band 3? Or the series, for that matter? Is that information put into perspective with similar statistics over the course of the series?

Does anyone actually use the rock band 3 pro guitar (squier)? It's looking like I'm never ever going to use it, and given the peripheral situation with 4 I doubt it will be of any use for that. I have no idea if I could even get rid of it.

Spoeank posted:The real guitar? I want to but I can't justify shelling out for it Yeah the real one. It does exactly what it's supposed to. I kept it for so long figuring I'd end up using the MIDI stuff more than I ended up doing. At this point I'd rather have another real (non rock band guitar). Are there any rock band forums or something where I could unload this?

PS4 will just accept the PS3 dongles and the controllers connect to the dongles like they do now. I mostly use a PS4 but I have a bone. Since my Rock Band, instruments, and downloads were all on 360 it makes the most sense to get the new Rock Band on Xbox One (in agreement with the thread title even). If the Xbox One uses an adapter, then I suppose there is zero hope that the Ion stuff will work. Maybe someone can hack up something to connect the Ion brain to a wireless set of drums and have that connect wirelessly with low enough latency to be playable.

Also I found an old quote from Harmonix about pro-mode for drums in general: “Rock Band 4 will focus on the core experience and the roots of the franchise — guitar, bass, drums, and vocals. There will be no Pro Guitar or key support in Rock Band 4. We will continue to support ‘Pro’ mode for Drums.”

Btw, I love the limelight as much as the next self-obsessed egomaniac but it would be a disservice to the group to consider me more than a piece of the puzzle. This has worked for 2 1/2 years because it's a giant puzzle with a lot of pieces and I'm personally very happy of the way it turned out to be.

With the amount of Windows 10 and XBox cross-over likely to happen I guess I'll stick to my rule of getting Sony consoles for the greater coverage of games not on PC. Good to know I don't have to throw out all my hardware. Edit: Actually, gently caress it. The announced set list isn't exciting enough.
