I love how Killing Lonliness is sorted under "H.I.M" while the rest of the DLC is under "HIM". Minor gripe that I hope is patched.

Not as deep as he thinks
Nothing works on the PS3 so far. The music store never loads up (I have to manually quit the game because apparently there's no "back" or "exit the music store" option), my redeem code from Gamestop doesn't work either, the code in the RB 2 manual is too long to put, and worst of all, access to the Rock Band forums are not possible because they're reworking the whole site so I can't have these questions answered.

You'd think double hits would be easily solvable in the game? Surely they can filter that out - if the song requires a single hit, but it registers two in very quick succession - thats unlikely to be deliberate from the player. It requires effort and two hands to get two discrete hits together.

In pro mode you are playing the correct notes in the song across the entire keyboard. Standard mode narrows everything down to just five keys. In both modes you can choose one of four difficulties.
Easier difficulties show the correct notes, but not all of them. So if a song has 3 notes in rapid succession, expert will have you play all of them, while easy would only have you play one. It will only ever show you the notes you have to play for that difficulty.

thanks for that, very helpful.
Mine should be here this week, but not decided on instruments yet. Keyboard is tempting because its new, but I have RB1 drums and don't know whether to update to RB3. Will probably stick with my GH2 guitars though.

That sucksAlso, I don't like that we have to pay (again) to export the songs. It was understandable with the RB1 export as you don't actually need a unique copy, but after that we always had one-time-usable codes so there shouldn't be a fee...On the other hand I'm very grateful that they offer this feature.

...no Journey? What is this?

Well, in reality, its $10 on top of whatever you paid for RB2 originally for 70 songs. Its still good when you look at it like that and compare it to DLC song prices, but still, I'll have paid AU$110 or whatever it was by the time I finally get those songs into RB3, I don't think its unreasonable to expect that in doing so I'll be able to play every single song I have.
Quick question because I'm kind of confused with what you can play and what not in Rockband 3 from the previous rockband's.
With Rockband 2 I download to my hard drive the Rockband 1 songs and the AC/DC songs plus a bunch of DLC that I bought. Will I be able to select and play these songs within the Rockband 3 game ?

All DLC and Exports work aside from the specific songs in this thread. So some of the Rockband and Rockband 2 songs won't work. All DLC sounds like it will work.
Some DLC does not show up, i.e. Tenacious D 'Rock Your Socks', The Guess Who Pack, The Dinosaur Jr. Pack, and the Anvil Pack. All of these songs were released on the same day, so it is believed to be a glitch; hopefully a patch will change this.
As long as you have already exported them out of Lego Rock Band, they will show up in RB3.Gowans007 said:

I just don't get why this happened again (losing songs in the export). I can understand when it was RB1 as they may not have been planning for exports, but by the time they were licensing songs for RB2 they knew what the plan was. Why didn't they license accordingly? It's just frustrating. I consider RHCP and Soundgarden among the best bands on Rock Band, and Journey is a huge loss for RB Party night.
I guess this means we are also losing Dani California and Black Hole Sun (and it's not just a glitch)?
Major bummer, IMO

Hopefully the rest of the DLC stuff that isn't showing up is in fact just a glitch.
Why have they not announced anything?

So how are the reviews coming along for this game eh? I only see 4 reviews on metacritic and they're not really big sites/mags either.

Thanks, looks like they rated according to their estimation that many people already have rockband 2 and aren't going to buy new peripherals. I only have a few guitar heroes so this would be my first rockband. Also, I plan to use a midi-keyboard and am seriously considering the real guitar as well once that comes out. The only downside is that both those options aren't available at launch, and it's a wait and see how long it takes for those things to come to Europe if ever.
But then as said it would be my first Rockband game, and I do have a full band kit and 3 microphones already, so I can use some of the unique features, not to mention the better song library.

Like I said, I've never seen a dev with such a passive aggressive stance towards a player base. And if it is truly Sony's fault as they keep saying, why don't they find a way to work it out?navanman said:

I've been requesting that since RB1 and still nothing. Pretty much the entirety of Silent Alarm would be really fun to play (especially drums). Such a shame :[
No Journey export? That's the worst news related to Rockband I've ever heard.
Did Activision strike a deal with them or something? Fuck, I'd pay real money for Enter Sandman, Any Way You Want It, Spooman and some other missing tracks...
Edit:
Hell, even release a music pack specially for the game as a discount price or whatever. Still better than this whole new disk with musics you won't be able to export later fiasco.

I don't understand why they didn't do it for RockBand 3 already. Make it a Digital Download, only a platform, and you buy whatever song you want for it through DLC.

Though in RB3 they show up as Lego Rock Band songs.
Anyways am I the only one who thinks the new dashboard thingy actually doesn't really do what I thought it was going to? Let's say I have myself signed into a keyboard, and my friend is on a mic. Well we decide we want to switch instruments. We can do it physically, but we can't swap profiles without logging out it seems. Occasionally I see the option to swap profiles but that seems to be only for brand new controllers being turned on. Am I crazy?

Checked with Gamestop in Canada.
All instrument bundles are delayed a week.
God damnit...

DO the Xbox itself supports more than 4 devices at once? I was under the impression that if you do Full Band and 3 mics, the game only tracks one.Cutwolf said:
Which brings me the question: How the hell can you play guitar + bass + keyboard + drums + mic?

So hyped for this, but I can't justify the costs at the moment
drizzle said:
From what I read, not all of the mics need to be signed in to the Xbox, circumventing the 4 person limit on the console.
If two of your devices are wireless and you have a 4 port USB hub, that'll give you 5 spots to plug in everything else.
Does any USB mic work with Rock Band? Slow shipping and mine won't get here til Friday, and I wanna sing NOW. Nothing but a radioshack nearby on the electronics front though.
