I had this issue. I emailed [email protected] and they sent me a new $5 Rewards Cash certificate code. No barcode, just a text code. They say I can use it in store or online but I haven't tried it yet.
They released a firmware update for the kick pedal issue today. http://madcatz.kayako.com/Knowledgebase/Article/View/608/209/rock-band-4-wireless-controllers-firmware-updates
I heard elsewhere that while the instruments don't work to navigate the dash, you can use a normal controller to boot RB4 and still use the instruments to play the game itself. Maybe try that?
One thing I didn't see mentioned yet. For the past few years DLC that was released prior to Rock Band 3 was put on sale for $1. This sale ends Tuesday with the release of Rock Band 4. This is your last chance to grab those older songs for half price.
I'm a bit disappointed that the disc exports aren't up yet and I have to do this through the Xbone console store instead of online.
Despite the issues, this is the most successful cross generational port of DLC. Rocksmith's was a mess and didn't work properly for months, Dance Central took...
That's kinda a moot point at this time since RBN songs will not transfer to next gen anyway. So as far as XOne/PS4, it's fairly equal (for now). I would say go with whatever console family you already have RB DLC for so it'll transfer to the next gen version.
Bundle will not include adapter.
Drums have improvements to help stability and other things. The instruments are designed to look the same but have improved internals. If I remember right, one thing that's changed is that the new drums take two batteries instead of three. I also remember them...
Most of them, yes. Please note, three songs do not export. Run to the Hills (cover), Paranoid (cover), and Enter Sandman.
The original version of Run to the Hills was made available as DLC so you can pick that up separately. Rock Band 1 has my favorite track list of all the games, easily worth...
They have said that the 360 Legacy Adapter will be available separately (especially since they said they are planning an Xbox One digital version).
Instruments are not cross compatible. Much like how you can't use a PS4 controller on Xbox One or vice versa. The Legacy Adapter is ONLY for using...
Rock Band 1's export is literally ripped from the disc. You can still export that ($5 fee)
Other Rock Band titles (2, Lego, Green Day) no longer export due to how it was set up. Green Day has the songs available separately though, so you can pick your favs from that.
Rock Band 3 does not have...
I've had these codes for a while, should still work. I've had no interest in them. (North America)
