Definitely agree with Kaboobi, it's pretty funny that a week so close to launch would be such an obvious Keys callback. Also, why is it advertised as an '80s theme but not actually bundled as a pack? I've always thought the lack of decade packs was criminal. Maybe they're intentionally avoiding them. This week falls firmly into "wishlist" territory for me. Some good party hits, but RB3 will be my party machine for the foreseeable future, and none of these appeal to me enough for a week 1 purchase. flakeloaf posted:Rocky Horror Soundtrack. Make it happen. We converted the Rocky Horror tracks from GH ("Time Warp", "Sweet Transvestite", and "Hot Patootie") as C3 customs! RB3 only, of course, but hey. Also doing Keys on some of those was a loving nightmare.

Thats a weird choice for INXS. I'd rather have had Devil Inside or Need You Tonight or even New Sensation if they wanted to really hit the 90s vibe.

Sooooo, there's zero chance Harmonix adds keyboard support in an update right? I swear I heard in the thread that the stems for keys aren't broken out, but I can't remember at this point.pksage posted:IT'S PAST 10 AM WHERE'S MY DLC ANNOUNCEMENT HAMDIX I'm getting flashbacks to five years ago...

Why is Amazon trying to charge me tax on RB4 box set all of a sudden? I had pre ordered one and didn't get charged tax. Now I'm trying to buy a second box set and they're trying to charge tax. I've never gotten charged tax on anything on Amazon before.

I swear I heard in the thread that the stems for keys aren't broken out, but I can't remember at this point. Correct, keys are baked into the backing track for RB4, just like RB1-2. You can tell on songs like Short Skirt/Long Jacket, where the trumpet starts right away and THEN the count-in happens, rather than the other way around. I highly, highly doubt keys are ever coming back. If they do, they'll only work for legacy keys songs, and 2015-2016 will just be another 2007-2010 where nothing has keys support.

I can understand using the lack of keys as an excuse to chart a synth part to the guitar, but charting the vocoder to harmonies gets a  from me.

Is Bark at the Moon still not available on Xbone? The rest of the pack (sans Mama, I'm Coming Home, which was another pack-only song) is there, but I can't see BatM anywhere on the Xbox store or in-game. HAMDIX  edit: oh okay, those won't be available until the pack goes up at some point DMorbid fucked around with this message at 23:46 on Oct 26, 2015 |

That's so disappointing. Really wish they could've left them broken out just in case they wanted to add it as a voluntary update. At least I've still got my 360.

SatansBestBuddy posted:Or just play the, what, 8 Cake custom songs already in RB3? The fact that we only did five Cake songs during C3 (SS/LJ, The Distance, I Will Survive, Never There, Opera Singer) is one of my personal shames. If I had twice as much free time as I do, I would go through and at LEAST do guitar charts for...hmm. Comanche, Up So Close, Jolene, Haze of Love, You Part the Waters, Is This Love?, Rock 'n' Roll Lifestyle, I Bombed Korea, Mr. Mastodon Farm, Ain't No Good, all of Fashion Nugget except She'll Come Back to Me and Sad Songs and Waltzes, Satan Is My Motor, Guitar, You Turn the Screws, Walk on By, Sheep Go to Heaven, When You Sleep, Hem of Your Garment, Alpha Beta Parking Lot, Let Me Go, all of Comfort Eagle except World of Two, No Phone, Dime, Carbon Monoxide, The Guitar Man, Waiting, She'll Hang the Baskets, Tougher Than It Is, Mustache Man, Sick of You, Ruby Don't Take Your Love To Town, Strangers in the Night, War Pigs, and Mahna Mahna. At least.  My ideal Harmonix Cake pack: Jolene, Open Book (guitarrrrrr), Daria, I Will Survive, Let Me Go, Opera Singer. Or just the full album for Fashion Nugget. Likely Harmonix Cake pack: The Distance, Never There, Sick of You.

flakeloaf posted:Rocky Horror Soundtrack. Make it happen. This so hard. Oh so hard. I got an itch to scratch that only Rock Horror Picture Show can take of. As a matter of fact, the reason that I got started getting involved with customs was to convert the RHPS pack from GH WoR. I got help from the GHtoRB3 guys, figured out the rest, and bam. My first Rock Band customs were those three. Then when C3 came around pksage graciously took them on and added keys/pro keys and yes, it was a nightmare. But they're awesome songs. I bought the 35th Anniversary Blu-Ray AND a blu-ray drive for my computer just so I could rip the 7.1 DTS-HD Master Audio songs. Unfortunately that didn't pan out until useful karaoke/multitracks and I never got around to charting the rest of the songs. That's probably my biggest shame as an author. Merijn posted:3 pages late, but congratulations on the baby! Enjoy the first few months and lay off the vidya, you need to experience this. Thanks! It's an interesting experience. It immediately made me lose my fear of handling babies (even with toddler and infant nephews) and it's clear to see the bond we already have together. But at the same time I feel like the same kid I thought I was before he was born you know. It's weird. Also, babies sleep a lot! So while he's been sleeping I've been playing lots of Uncharted, trying to finish the Collection. But I'm definitely going to be there at every milestone :-)

I was mostly going from memory on Motorcade, it's been a while since I sat down and listened to it. Ruby Sees All is indeed good and I should have included it.Now to just sit down and author these ~50 songs, see you nerds in 2024!

Lmao newborn babies sleep a lot,yeah. But they don't stay newborn very long. You'll find that out eventually though. Wait til they go through the "will only fall asleep on you" phase. You'll get a lot done with your days then. Soon it'll be "hey babe can you distract our child in the other room for 8 minutes so I can play 3 rock band songs please? No she can't be in the same room because there's a 99% chance she will turn off the Xbox because it has a stupid light up capacitive button, or she will want to sit on my lap while I drum. Seriously just 3 songs. Ok fine I'll only play 2 today." But it's worth it because having a kid is awesome and in the grand scheme of things it's just a dumb video game.
