Re: Guitar Hero. Awesome.

so I tried HS3 and everything got a lot easier why the **** was I using HS2

no really awesome scores but I went from sometimes maybe hitting some of the stuff in the NotB solo to consistently hitting everything minus the zigzag strummy bull**** and the red orange bull****

also went from never FC'ing Stricken's solo to FC'ing it in one try

Re: Guitar Hero. Awesome.

I'm getting decent people =D

Still have 3 5*s on Hard to do (Knights of Cydonia, Rainng Blood and One, although One is probably gona b m next due to stuid extra strumming on the darkness riffs),and have 7 5*s left on Expert (The Metal, 3s and 7s, Before I Forget, Cliffs of Dover, Raining Blood and One). Why I cant 5* The Metal is beyond me. All of those are 4*s apart from RB and CoD.

So yea I'm happy =P

HS2 lmao

Nice improvements.

Jesus I'm almost using HS5 D: I think I would use it, if it wasn't for random flashy things in the background like fire and stuff that occasionally make the notes difficult to see on HS5, so I stick to HS4.

But I'm getting pretty bored with this game. It would be much easier to practice if I could play online. Otherwise I'm left with only a few songs that I consider hard enough to merit playing...the rest of which I have maybe a miss or two that I can't be bothered getting rid of.


I spent some time today trying to figure out a way to combo the one solo without having my brother strum. I actually started 4xing the runs, but I keep missing the transitions. That and when you miss, an elbow strum is so much less effective than another hand for getting you going again >_>

Re: Guitar Hero. Awesome.

Hasn't the One solo been deemed impossible to combo?

It's something like 20 notes/second

[Shashakiro]

Re: Guitar Hero. Awesome.

it's ~22 NPS

what makes it really stupidly hard is that random strummed note towards the end of it.

Re: Guitar Hero. Awesome.

So I 5*d nearly all the songs in Hard, and the majority of them in Expert. I just passed One and Raining Blood for the first time, and I'm having an extremely hard time Battling Lou.

Any tips? I haven't been able to get a power-up but once or twice. I have yet to pass Lou's third attack =/

Re: Guitar Hero. Awesome.

the Guardians: Wait for your first item to be a whammy and unleash it on his green notes. Instant win every time! Oh, and if you miss any power-ups you're probably better off restarting the match, as Lou will more than likely kill you later if you have had nothing to attack him with =P

In other news, today's been a very good GH day and I've only been up a couple of hours: finally 5*d everything on Hard and got my Tiki, and have 4 5*s left on Expert (Before I Forget, 3s and 7s, Raining Blood and One), so I'm very pleased right now =D

Re: Guitar Hero. Awesome.

Ummm no, at least not with help >_> I can nearly fc the one solo with my brother strumming and the flat guitar technique. The lowest note gets planted and you use your index fingers to tap the other notes, so it's not really 22 n/s. It's not really the speed that's difficult, it's the timing and then transitioning from one set of rolls to the next (where I typically miss, since I lose the offset rhythm).

The strum note isn't actually random either. It's because it's actually sets of triplets, rather than rolls...even though it looks like rolls. This is stupid and activision could have easily made this section much easier to hit (since it isn't all that hard to tap on guitar...this is one of those places where GH is harder than the real thing). Instead they made it really really dumb for no reason, to the point that it might never get fc'd.


The only thing that honestly seems impossible to combo is the red snake. In particular because even with the lowest note planted and HS5 it's really hard to hit much of anything there. The easiest way to hit the most notes there is to strum as fast as you physically can and go hog wild. Your bar will stay maxed if you're quick enough...so TTFAF will get 99%'d eventually I think.

Thank you very much =)

Watch it still take me 2 hours, lol.

Re: Guitar Hero. Awesome.

Lol, it took me a long while too, but thankfully not as long as Raining Blood. God I'm glad I finally got that out of the way

But yeah, good luck!

Re: Guitar Hero. Awesome.

590k on One with 97%. Getting very close to optimal (for the path). Only way to increase the score is not to not screw up after the solo, and possibly smoother sp initiations. % won't get any higher until I can 2 hand the solo, which won't happen for a long time XD

340k fc on The Seeker first try today. Huge improvement from last time I played it, and I used the optimal path as well (based on these paths http://www.bradleyzoo.com/GuitarHero/). Somehow though, the record is over 3k points above my score. Where the hell are these extra points coming from D: Are there invisible points or something? The same thing happens to me on Closer. I must admit, on the seeker I missed a few notes under sp because of initiating *slightly* too early but ...that adds up to over 3k? Unbelievable D:

99% on The Way It Ends...with a bad score though, since I missed 5 sp phrases. So frustrating D:
