Fierce_LiNk Posted December 22, 2007 Posted December 22, 2007 This game is the bollocks. I thought I'd try Knights of Cydonia on Expert for a laugh. Managed a grand total of 3% before I got booed off. I'll stick to easy for now. I'm getting well into it now. Really chuffed I've got this.
Davey_T Posted December 22, 2007 Posted December 22, 2007 O man... earlier today tried TTFAF on Hard because iv been stuck on it for a while. Got to the very very last note and failed. Couldn't believe it. Done it now though
Mokong Posted December 22, 2007 Posted December 22, 2007 Ahh fair. You need one of those special cables to capture directly from the TV for it I think. Doesn't Adobe Premier do the PiP thing? I could probably edit the video for you if you sent it to me after you made it, I'd need to reinstall it but it's no biggy. I got a way to get the game footage onto my comp... and yes Adobe Premier does do picture in picture, but last i looked at it it was pricey.... i'm hoping to get a good deal in the January sales. Anyway, still can't do any of the other 3 songs on the 2nd last gig on Hard. Went to see if i could do anymore songs on expert...answer no. So went back to Medium to see if i could 5 star that evil Raining Blood, I set a new high score of over 120,000 with 95% notes and still only 4 star... WTF do I need to do to get my 5 star, damn you Slayer, damn you to hell So went online and tried some battles, first guy i beat without ever having to use an item (he picked expert, and i think it was a mistake, haha) played a second game and it was more even, both of us on even, every song went to sudden death, and i lost all of them...now here's a question how does the Death Drain work? Cause the two of got the item at the same time and used them at the same time, why do I die first? And when you collect a 2nd death drain can you use it still? does it change things? ANd lastly why was the death drain symbol getting bigger on my screen and not on his.... i only started missing notes when it covered most of my guitar, but on his side the symbol was still normal size
Dyson Posted December 22, 2007 Posted December 22, 2007 When you get to sudden death, you carry over your rock meter and your powerups. The first person to get the death drain essentially wins, it covers yourt screen and if you drop a note you drop a huge amount on the rock meter. Let me know if that needs clearing up further : peace:
Roostophe Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 Time for an unnecessary list, methinks. Great songs that I've discovered from GHIII: Foghat - Slow Ride Poision - Talk Dirty To Me Social Distortion - Story of my Life Heart - Barracuda Priestess - Lay Down The Dead Kennedys - Holiday In Cambodia Eric Johnson - Cliffs of Dover The Sleeping - Don't Hold Back
Mokong Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 wohoo, getting slightly better at Slipknot on Hard, got to 56% before i was booed off, it's the bloody chourse that's killing me, just can't keep up with the chord notes, can barely even do it on slowest in practice too. 3's & 7's can only get to 16% before failing...that whole intro is killin me And Muse, still only about 80% the bit with all the hammer-on/pull-off does a lot of damage to me (mostly the 2nd part of it) and some how i just can't keep up with the section just after it, grrrr... tried a few songs on the bonus tracks to calm me down...might go back to teh start of teh set list to see if i can upgrade any songs from 3 star to 4 star (not really gonna worry bout 5 stars on hard mode ) and still can't 5 star Slayer on medium, got 96% notes earlier but only something like 114000 points, only a 4 star,
ShadowV7 Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 Dammit, on Slash and i'm always so close to beating him it's unfair I can get him right down to the bottom of the red guage but he just hangs on. I will beat him tonight sometime. Also I can almost do another song on Expert. I was literally at the end, like 96% done and my finger slipped up and I pressed the wrong key and was off.
Dyson Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 Make surer you stack your powers and use the after each other, not all at the same time for AI battles. Human vs human battles are another story
Fierce_LiNk Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 I'm on the third guitar battle with that Lou guy, and even though it's on easy mode, I just can't beat the fucker. He just seems to get more power ups than me, and it kills me.

Fierce_LiNk Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 http://www.n-europe.com/forum/showpost.php?p=633436&postcount=962 : peace: I tried that once...and it seemed to work a treat, for a second or two. I'll give it a go later, cheers man.

I was literally at the end, like 96% done and my finger slipped up and I pressed the wrong key and was off. if i remember right there's a power item right at the start of that battle... just keep restarting till you get an amp overload or whammy out of it, then save it and get two more, if you get at least one more of one of those you should be sorted, just wait for a section when he has lots of notes, i think i waited till a section late in the song
ShadowV7 Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 Hehe that's what i've been doing, got a whammy and difficulty up and i'm trying to get a double to increase the amount of buttons you need to click so it get's him out faster. Always get so close, i'll try again later tonight.
Fierce_LiNk Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 I did the fucker. Dunno how, but I did it. Now I'm on medium. "Wtf, I've just discovered the blue button/my pinky finger!"
Zell Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 This game is so much fun... just easing through it on medium at the moment. It seriously fucks with your eyes though.
Fierce_LiNk Posted December 24, 2007 Posted December 24, 2007 I 5 starred Bulls on Parade on medium on my first go. I'm pretty chuffed, especially because I didn't have a single four star on medium before that! I played each song once, got to the end, then onto the next. I just had a wee quickplay of it on expert, and fucking hell, do I have a way to go. Love this though, I do feel like I'm improving lots.
ReZourceman Posted December 24, 2007 Posted December 24, 2007 The down click on the guitar broke, and no longer clicks. Threw away the outer packaging. £60 down drain.
Dyson Posted December 24, 2007 Posted December 24, 2007 Rezourceman is a fool. In other news, I beat Lou on expert
ReZourceman Posted December 24, 2007 Posted December 24, 2007 Rezourceman is a fool. In other news, I beat Lou on expert Not my fault!
Dyson Posted December 24, 2007 Posted December 24, 2007 How did it break? They're designed to withstand heavy usage and long time wear and tear, it must have been hit pretty extremely for it to have done that.

They're designed to withstand heavy usage and long time wear and tear, it must have been hit pretty extremely for it to have done that. No seriously, nothing at all happened to it, I was playing it on easy on lefty flip (Upside down on my bed, so it was just like playing easy lol) and it just stopped clicking. I was annoyed. Do you think I should write off?
Dyson Posted December 24, 2007 Posted December 24, 2007 How strange, I would imagine there's some sort of warranty on it though, call Activision and see what they can do about it, I'm sure it's fixable/replaceable : peace:

Cant really take it back to HMV due to packaging. Ill look into it and report back.
Fierce_LiNk Posted December 24, 2007 Posted December 24, 2007 I'm sooo addicted to this. SLOOOOW RIDE! DA BUM BUM BOOM! dur daa durr daaaa
