Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock - 8/21 Dragonforce Track Pack

for me on mosh1 I could get 100 percent on slow doing hammer ons - but then at full speed I just couldn't get the hammer ons to work - what I do is strum it all - just real fast up/down strumming.
 
So does everyone anticipate continuing to play this with Rock Band hitting store shelves today? Doesn't GHIII have to deliver some decent DLC soon with Rock Band releasing and lining up songs and song packs every week through 2007? It seems odd we haven't heard more from GHIII, because I have to imagine if they have things that will release in the next month or so they have to be working on it now. Guess we will see.

Everyone sign up for the CAGs Guitar Hero III Tour Group today:

We have moved into 18th place with just over 100,000 groupies and 120+ members!
 
Wow, we jumped up compared to this weekend. :D

I'll get back to playing this soon, once I satiate my desire to play Assassin's Creed. Might work on some coop with a friend tonight.
 
[quote name='Backlash']For those of you who can pass Mosh 1 in Raining Blood, how are you doing it? (Note: I'm playing on Hard).

Are you doing pull-offs for the triplets? Or "reverse hammer-ons" (tapping)? Are you even trying to play the orange ones or ignoring those? Any advice would be great.

I can get in the upper 70's% on the slower speed and sometimes on the slow speed, but I am typically around high 40s or 50% on regular speed :([/quote]

I beat all of Hard, mostly 5 stars, and the only song I failed ONCE was One. Despite all of that, I cannot beat the Mosh 1 part of Raining Blood. I have tried at least 20 times and I cannot get past it. Who the fuck play tested this game? This is the worst difficulty spike I have ever seen.

It won't be once you pass it. See above. :lol:

I got a 5* on Raining Blood a couple of days ago, here are my tips regarding Mosh 1:

Use your first three (index, middle, ring) fingers [obviously] and learn to roll your fingers.

When I say roll, do it as if you're bored and you roll your fingers across the top of a table.

This is the only part where I play with my thumb over the neck, otherwise I just play in a traditional position with my thumb behind the neck. ONLY strum the parts that BEGIN each three-note pulloff. There is a constant beat that sounds with the bass drum (I think so) that you should strum to, and pull of the other 3 notes.

Pull off, FAST. It's easier to just listen to the song and listen to the beat to strum and then just roll your fingers, shifting down/up a fret to access that orange button. If you're just staring at the note chart, you're going to get overwhelmed and confused.
 
what are the "awards" at the guitarhero.com website - I couldn't find any description of what they are and how you get them but apparently I have two...
 
Took a break from cod4 and downloaded the boss battles. Damn they are hard. Why does my meter go down so much on the fast part of devil went down to georgia. I can do fast parts in other songs just fine.
 
so is it still uncertain whether this will be downloadable just tomorrow - or *starting* tomorrow - what about all of us who are going to be out of town...

I'm pretty sure that it will be available "starting tomorrow". That would suck if it was only available tomorrow, especially for those who are out of town or 360-less.

Oh crap I was just playing a few games online and after playing this one guy I got the Meet Your Maker achievement. Totally random. I was like Huh? This guy was sorta weak, he only played hard :whistle2:k

it's a viral achievement
 
Yea I know what it is, I guess in my head I figured the guy would be amazing at the game. We were playing battle mode and he seemed like he didn't know to stack his power ups.
 
Is this supposed to be free for one day only? I haven't played my Guitar Hero very much, but if it is only free for one day I'm going to be sure to get it downloaded.
 
[quote name='Renegade_Zero']Well it's up. 27 mb download. I played it a couple times, it's alright, a tad bit short. It feels a little boring, but I like it, it's a fun song to play.[/quote]

It is kinda boring, but how is it short? To me it sounds like the entire song.
 
[quote name='Backlash']Finally passed Raining Blood last night (on Hard). Thanks for the tips guys.[/QUOTE]
I finally beat it on Expert last night. Jesus fucking Christ it was the first song in 3 GH games that I had to actually practice through to beat. But then I didn't have time to try the boss battle over and over again. Stupid battles are such a gimmick, way to random for a game like this.
 
I hope this Halo theme is free for more than a day. Would suck for those of us who actually don't travel with our 360s for Thanksgiving.
 
Ok... fuck this game! How the hell do you play repeated OBYBYR over and over on Raining Blood and One? I get about 36% until Mosh 1 and that song just destroys me in a matter of seconds. One I can get about 92% and then that song owns me.

How the fuck do you guys play that? It looks impossible unless there's some trick I'm missing.

EDIT: Well I just beat One... I just was fingering like crazy, but I'd still like to know if there's a trick to those sections!

No trick, just learning the rythm and practice. I practiced that Mosh 1 section on Raining Blood a bunch but my percentages really didn't go up any. Then I tried practicing the whole song a few times (except the Calm at the beginning) and that really helped me to learn the pace and rythm of the song a lot better.

Now, of course, I'm totally stuck on Lou. :whistle2:( I just want to unlock Dragonforce.
