Not fun!!

Good job. No way of competing with that as the game refuses to accept certain notes in the song :(

Not fun!!

Hi there!

 

My first time participating here. You guys are an awesome community!

 

Real Gone - Lead - 95%

when have I won advanced? :O I spent a lot of time in the riff repeater trying to figure out why I keep missing the 12th fret hammer on, but regardless of pace, it's a miss. :(

Here are my final scores for the week. Girls just wanna have fun is not very fun for lead. Had some random misses in Real Gone too. 

@@meelo but I'm mostly hitting it, I feel I could get a lot better score if I keep playing.

I'm using my pinkie finger and I'm not picking the note. If I'm on 80% speed I get it every time.

I'm going to try it on another machine, see if that works. Installing rocksmith on my company laptop as we speak (don't tell my boss!) :D

Scores for the week :

I didn't hit the print screen button hard enough therefore, I don't have a rhythm score for the week :(

 

And because boys also want to have fun :

Same exact notes over and over again. 2 notes short from being able to catch Hughmonty. Oh well.

I'm playing the last 9 segments in both of this riff repeater runs.

I tried tuning to Eb standard and F standard to see if it's an issue with my intonation, but that's not giving me better results either. I am just baffled by this. Don't know what else to try. Laptop didn't want to run rocksmith.

@@meelo I suppose you tried to tune the string slightly flat to compensate involuntary small bends/strong freeting ?

Yeah, but it's always the same 11 notes. 96 % of the song works just perfectly.

@@meelo I know what you mean it's the same note I miss but it feels more that I lose my pinkie strength.

New week is up.

 

last minute ....

 

 

 

silly miss started the rot

I know it's over, but this wouldn't be a valid entry anyways:

 

Removed the 12th fret hammer-ons with regular notes and repackaged the song. Got 100 % in learn a song and missed one note in the score attack. Still same amount of notes as the original (315), just one technique less.
