What is the 'fills' you speak of?

The only real bad thing about it is that you dont have solo buttons to go crazy in the big rock endings. DG & Sab use the Explorer Guitar which is what I am talking about. I myself prefer the RB controllers.

Yes interested. I will PM you. I really do not know the difference between the GH and RB guitars. No idea what the solo buttons are.

tug of war? Score duel? Eh?

Which is it? 2 or 1? Bass says 2 you say 1.

How many players can you have at a time? 4 right? One on guitar, one on bass, 1 drummer, and one singer. Or is it 3, with a guitarist OR bass instead of one of each?

Solo buttons on the guitar allow you to tap the solos in the guitar solos without strumming and you can do the same thing in the big rock endings. Fills are the open colored lanes in the drum sections that allow you to play what you want, just like a BRE (Big Rock Ending)

They are other game modes in the game, tug of war plays parts of the song to each player alternating in parts to each player, part to me then part to you, repeat...

Score duel, you play the entire song against someone trying to get the highest score.

It depends on the mode. BQP or BWT (Band Quick Play or Band World Tour) you can have 1 of each instrument going, SD or ToW (Score Duel or Tug of War) you can have 2 of the same instrument going

Up to 4 if you have 1 person for each instrument in BQP or BWT, 2 in SD or ToW

we all know not to listen to bass don't we? Lol no The reason he says two is because there are two people on rock band guitars but one is playing bass and one is playing guitar so they're different instruments.

SD's or ToW's = 2 Guitars or 2 Bass or 2 of anything is why I say 2 of 1 instrument, if there was only 1 Bass & 1 guitar, then I wouldn't have said 2.

There can only be 1 of each instrument in BWT or BQP Midnight, SD & ToW is another mode where you play against that same instrument as I said above.

[[SS]Bassani]

lol, holy shit, true story here...

So DG & I were doing some BQP earlier today, I decide to play Ride the Lightning, AND like a tard I pick lead, Im thinking that DG is like, yea ok, but he goes along with it and picks bass, both of us are on expert too...

I AIM him to save his star power because I'm using my turtle beach's and they don't work with the RB instruments, he says ok, lol, we both think that Im going to fail in the solo.

I used SP once on my own while he saved his, I ended up getting another full SP meter, he still had yet to use any. The next time I got into a bad area in the solo, we both happened to use our SP at the same time. I say to myself, SHIT...

I ended up passing the song basically on my own though he was there, got like 87%, fucking nuts, guess I'm getting better...

[[SS]Midnight]

That's a great story. What is BQP and BWT?

[[SS]Bassani]

If you read some of the last posts, Ive explained it all...

Yep, kinda long, not the same charts as the other songs either, well not on bass anyway...

[[SS]Showstoper]

I DL'ed it last night and played it on drums today. All I can say is AWESOME. It's the same length as their performance last night.

Plus, I got a workout from it. A must have! Right now! Do it!

[[SS]Bassani]

So, Im doing the ESL for Platinum Drums, after 5 tries on Visions I pass then I get 3/4 through solo 2 on Painkiller and I pop a breaker, WTF!!!

[[SS]Rator]

omg sucks! i dled the 3 new coheed songs and fuck, guns was ridiculous! beat it first time thru, but with massive pain!

[[SS]Bassani]

lol, you have no idea how bad that sucks, I took breaks too which kinda made it worse but better at the same time, but 6.25 hrs minimum down the drain, I'm pissed, all for nothing...

As for the new C&C, no idea, haven't seen it yet...
