Rocksmith 2014 Championship Week 118

[then3verend]

I promise this one's harderhttp://oi63.tinypic.com/16h3r6u.jpg

It really is, the solo's longer and more shreddy

Welp, debating on giving the G frickin G to albatross now or go under a p90x bass playing style for the week to get my endurance up

Debating it....

[fripponomic]

tough advanced, my rating is more 8 than 7, but not int

[Warriors Lance]

Well, I got my % up, but my streak got shorter

Random.org and SSL have played their whole evilness :godmode: this week.

 

Muse lead was rated a 6 by 2 players in the SSL - my selection playthrough said like 7, but i tend to overrate diff on the first plays, so hard int seemed to be ok.

By the entrances and responses it´s clear now that it is too hard to master for int.

 

We surely don´t wanna lose players for getting frustrated...

 

IMPORTANT:

 

New INT LEAD SONG

 

(Week 51s) ARCTIC MONKEYS - LEAVE BEFORE THE LIGHTS COME ON (4)

 

Muse moves to ADV

and Gloryhammer and Alestorm both score for MC - so a fat week for the masters

 

 

PS:  @@MonstaS4 move your ass and your bat back to the playfield! ;)

My class is changing every time i look here.  :P

I was glad i did not have to learn those weird chords. But i guess i have to now.  Damn :angry: :angry:

 

Even with C standard i really like to play this song.  Its catchy and it never get boring.

Guess its back to E now and try to learn something.

[MaZtoR]

Intermediate got a well deserved easy song now.

This stupid song did not even have the decency to be in E std.

I hate this song

I hate this band

I think those chords are stupid

[Rodman]

Gloryhammer.

Not glorious. I always have technical problems with low tune songs. Rocksmith said that I missed notes, but not. Impossible to play Deftones "My own summer" for exemple. I don't understand.

 

So my score for the momenthttp://s7.postimg.org/h6e7h378b/gloryhammer.jpg

[fripponomic]

@@kb10, we need a screenshot with accuracy % and longest streak for the leaderboard.

Anthony Fantano talks about Dystopia by Megadeth!

Of course, i disagree once more with him, and i think his review is pretty incomplete, he didn't talk about Kiko and Chris participation and stuff like that

[Motive]

Who this guy? I never hear his music and devine solo. :)

And anyway its personal taste. I listen more than ten times and still yet very like album. 

[Nacholede]

And anyway its personal taste. I listen more than ten times and still yet very like album. 

It's a guy who does pop, rap, metal, rock reviews

But the man barely talks about the album, he covered a few things like Mustaine's vocal performance and some of the riffs and production, but nothing else, and there is where i feel that his review is very poor and incomplete! 

The same happened with Hand.Cannot.Erase by Steven Wilson 

[Mortalo]

What are you watching @@Nacholede? He doesn't have hair to headbang, he can't review Megadeth. Listen to the album instead. And headbang!

[Nacholede]

And i did! the album kicks ass, but i have to listen to it a few more times :D 

[then3verend]

Oh okay, Rob Scallon gave that guy a shout-out once, I know who he is...



I just finished my first listen to the album today and its.....between okay and good...


Look, Fatal Illusion is a great song, and The Threat is Real is a great opener I hope to see Megadeth begin with

Death from Within keeps the album going, but then I really started to feel the main drawback to this album, the same one I had with Th1rt3en

The aggression isn't there...

I can tell Dave is trying, and Kiko and Chris Adler are great, but the aggression Megadeth can show isn't here.

I think this a genre mis-match for me, because this is a great melodic metal album, but not the album I expected it to be.

8.5/10

[fripponomic]

here it is like promised

http://up.picr.de/24406515gs.jpg

and bass with v1.1, but hard to get higher than 920k

http://up.picr.de/24406521xp.jpg

 

the guitar has 5 more notes now :P

8.5/10

The 3 openers were damn good songs! Loved The Threat is Real, Dystopia and Fatal Illusion

Maybe some of the songs here are fillers, like Death From Within or Post American World, but the album shines with the melodic songs like Poisonous Shadows (My favourite from the album), and the incredible instrumental Conquer Or Die, the agression is present in the awesome riff from Lying In State, and ending the album, The Emperor and Foreign Policy are good to average tracks

I can't give a well veredict yet, i still have to listen to it a few more times (I also listened the deluxe edition tracks, pretty damn good ones), but again, i gotta listen to it a few more times

[NoonyDeloony]

What's this "proper hair" nonsense? :P

It's a shit score but I got through SA which is basically what this post is marking, achievement wise anyway. stamina is improving, more relaxed now so less of an ache but I remember Full Steam Spacemachine and Pump it Up giving me the same jip... I will overcome and conquer :) the ache that is... maybe not the overall MC bass score :)

[diddie17]

It's been a battle to get past the 93% and to the top of the bottom, but I suspect I won't stay there long :-)

 

Beginner Lead - 93.38%

To be fair, I think I did Dystopia a disservice by listening to Endgame over and over hoping it would be the proper follow-up. Th1rt3en was okay, but you could tell super collider was coming...

I would tie Dystopia with Th1rt3en(#6) in my Megadeth Album Rankings

1-5 are R.I.P Peace Sells Endgame Countdown to Extinction and Killing is My Business

[diddie17]

I thought I'd give the Int song a try, and for any beginners that are unsure, I actually struggled more with the Beginner song than the first couple of plays on this one.  I can recommend beginners giving this a go, personally I enjoyed it more than the Beginner song

 

I'll spend a bit more time with it and see if I can get the score up.

 

Int Lead - 90%

 

[diddie17]

gonna be another long week!!!  :tired_face:

At the beginner level they are all long weeks I think  :)

 

I'm trying to give up smoking at the moment, and I was losing my temper and throwing picks at the screen last night when I couldn't make my fingers work  :angry:

 

Just noticed in your awards that you are both 1st and 2nd in the Beginner lead bracket.  Have you managed to find a way to enter twice without anyone noticing :-)
