Forced myself to stick with default controls until I get used to it. Seems to work well now that I'm not trying to figure out how to play at the same time.


Sent out a few Score Wars.

Really missing the RB3 songs. Not holding my breath for an export but I hope we get one someday.

Same, it does personally remind me how much I love the Rock Band 3 setlist when I look for it and forget about it all being on disc still.

Though I will admit, Rock Band Blitz has reminded me how goddamn awesome a song "Shout" is.

• Linkin Park – “Breaking the Habit” O
• Linkin Park – “Shadow of the Day” O
• Linkin Park – “New Divide” O X
• Linkin Park – “Burn It Down” O

Pass.

"I'm gonna go listen to Linki"....never mind.

No. Just no.

Early 2000's me is excited, current me says pass.

If anyone wants to group up for some of these RBW goals to get through them more quickly send me a friend request. If you're already on my friends list send me a XBL message so we can link on Facebook (I think? - I guess that's how it works?)

I stick with Freakish controls and it's like second nature for me now. Now I just gotta find some RB3 instruments -_- cause I re-bought RB3 and now I have no bass or guitar.

maybe its me but it seems really hard to 5 star songs that arent in Blitz orDLC songs earlier than rb 3. I get good scores on them but cant seem to get 5 stars

My thumb is numb after playing for 9 hours yesterday, I think I am getting old

I only have 7 Live friends so all the passing up your friends doesn't really help me much. I have the generic Mothership Q people and thats it. If you play and want to add me feel free on xbox Kezmer Gamertag

I'm hoping and assuming it'll just come after a few more days of play (figuring out how to get more stars). On day 1 I was getting 3 stars on almost everything, now I'm usually getting 4 1/4 to just barely below 5 stars on most things, with (very) few 5s here and there as well. Guess it's just a matter of figuring out what power ups work well together and learning the best way to maximize your score while not forfeiting multipliers on each track.

yeah that is what I am thinking also, I have noticed that songs with the full complement of 5 track including keyboard notes are a lot easier to 5 star. I have been getting a lot of 4 stars on older things and 5 stars on anything since RB3.

I 4 starred one song and ended up with the 4th highest score ever. Just seems weird to what I am used to from RB but i still love this game a lot!

I noticed that too. Thought it was just me.

Only a couple of friends picked this up so feel free to add me.

I got the 5-star everything achivement but holy crap is Shout bafflingly hard compared to everything else. Maybe I was just doing something wrong, but it took like 6 or 7 tries before I got it. Everything else I got in one or two tries.

I finally Gold Starred a track, but it was Landslide so that was cheap.

The solution posted to TA for the 1,000 cred achievement says it should only take 7-8 songs. I've played about twice that many (just got the dozen song achievement, plus played a couple DLC), and I still only have about 900 cred. Am I missing something, or doing something wrong? Is there an easy way to get more cred per song? Also, it seems if I buy power-ups for all three slots, it'll cost me more coins than I earn for the song, even though I'm getting double coins for playing songs for the first time. Is that normal? Thanks.

Also, is there a way to manually pick what some and what opponent you issue a score war challenge to? The only place I see it is from the main "play" page, but it's always one predetermined song/opponent.

I'm getting 4 stars almost every song I play. I've completed about 40 songs now, and have exactly 3 songs with 5 stars, maybe two songs with only 3 stars, and everything else 4. Clearly, I haven't quite mastered this yet.

The facebook app Rock Band World is what you use to manually set up a score war with your chosen song and opponent.

The Facebook app is annoying. You can't even make challenges that are cross-platform, which I'd have thought you could given the use of Facebook, but you can't. I see my PS3 playing friends, but can't make a score war with them. What's the point, then? Well, I guess the point is to advertise the game on Facebook. I.e. no benefit to the player. You also can't see your progress on goals from within the game. You have to go to Facebook to see that. I really wish I could see that stuff in-game.

But I love the game itself. It's great.

That's true. The app does nothing that couldn't be accomplished in-game.

The coin economy in Blitz has been tweaked for the better.

I might actually play it now... Seriously, the coin system is retarded. You should earn less coins, and they should be used to permanently purchase powerups (ie, unlock the ability to purchase with blitz cred or whatever it's called, then pick which ones you want with coins). Should also have had more "unlockables" to use coins toward.
