Push to your very limit, then keep pushing!!

Has anyone played Queensryche on bass? Is that really a 3? Wondering cause my score was almost 100 on the first run.

It might be 2, I was curious how the speed of the triplets is bothering beginners :)

Closer to 100%

I struggled more then expected.

This is probably the 100000th time I've played this over the time I've had this CDLC but the play counter is broken. There is a part where the charter mistakenly mixed lead and rhythm into something IMPOSSIBLE to make the game detect and I miss 3 notes because of that :( http://i.imgur.com/QIMjSxt.jpg

Also, I've noticed my game's volume is very low even at 100%... They said disabling audio exclusivity would solve it but whenever I disable it, my Realtone Cable doesn't work. Any advice?

thanks for the heads up @@macjm

 

I haven't had a chance this week and I'm travelling up North tomorrow for a few days, I just hope I get an hour tonight to at least get a couple of scores in.

 

cheers

Also, I've noticed my game's volume is very low even at 100%... They said disabling audio exclusivity would solve it but whenever I disable it, my Realtone Cable doesn't work. Any advice?

I have it disabled in game but it enabled in the sound options through windows. RS always pops up on game start telling me it needs exclusive but I never have a problem. Check your cable properties where you go to change it to dvd quality during your first setup.

@@Tonedef Yes, figured it out 5 minutes after that post I made :p Turns out the in-game option auto-defaulted to on and I just didn't notice

Well i managed to get a couple of hours in tonight, but i think thats it for the week,

 

first try with Lenny........

 

 

So I thought that wasn't too bad, lets have a go on Master Mode,

 

 

had to be happy with that but i Know if i had the time i'd 100% it.....

 

 

same with the bass.......

The Sword proved more problematic, but i managed to get a reasonable score on Rhythm ......... i have no idea how @@Vodka got 95% so easily.

 

 

and lead... well i just ran outta time,

 

 

hopefully i'll be back early enough for another couple of plays,

 

have a good week,

Oops wrong one........  -_-

 

 

......... i have no idea how @@Vodka got 95% so easily.

 

 

I have no any idea too, my friend. May be the answer I'm not playing SA, but just LS.

@@Vodka you'll beat me easily in SA, good to see you back mate.

I think that I have Fly Away on bass to the point of diminishing returns = 99.84% in Master Mode.  I won't chase that last random miss for ever.  There's always one slide or another that doesn't register.

I was away at the end of last week and all weekend, and I've only just got back to my bass.

 

First goes, Queensryche:

Guess which bits of the Lenny Kravitz I missed:

I have problems with The Sword conversion to Mac:

It shouldn't look like that, should it?

 

I tried the Queen, and was quite surprised to get 80% on my first go:

I think my goal for the week is going to be making it through score attack.

I really Enjoyed playing the Swords song.

And its always uplifting to get a 100%

Have been spending hours looking at Youtube tutorials and practicing slap and pop, it did improve my skills somewhat.

An improvement. 84%.  I don't think I'll be doing much more tonight:

I'm really glad to see you again. Look at all these awards you've got! Awesome!

A little improvement, but still missing a few notes.

First chance playing champ songs this week, I can't slap and I don't have the time right now to invest in Lenny so posting Sword score... I like this song :) I shall improve and do video I think :)

And since i liked it i had to de-tune the bass too.

fun and easy song

got the 100% lead on this which I'm very excited about, learned the song very quickly and was able to get 99ish every time but getting the hundred gets so stressful towards the end. I finally got it after many runs "missing" 1 note

worked on queen and queenrysche a bit, those chords at the beginning of the queen song really threw me off

Yea, those chords are basically the only really difficult part in that songs.
