Cahill said:You guys still play Uncharted 2 co-op at all? Hope so, cause I finally got around to picking it up last night. Hadn't bought a PS3 game in forever. Also grabbed Just Cause 2 and FFXIII for the 360.
Anywho... need some of you on my PSN Friends list. Only have like 7 people on there and 3 of them I know IRL got rid of their PS3's.

Hey bud. Didn't we run around in Sacred a couple times? Don't see you in here much.
Yeah we did,I didn`t play Sacred 2 in quite sometime though hehe...
I didn't think it was possible, but my Value Pedal Mk. II broke.
I'm glad it happened now rather than later though, I'm still under the one year warranty for another 18 days. I put some duct tape on it and that's holding up fine, but I emailed their customer support, we'll see how it turns out.

My red pad fell off (not the casing, the pad part of it) so that's duct taped on, my green has a huge bubble and my yellow and blue have small ones, my pedal snapped in half but if I tighten the screws enough on the plate it holds together for awhile, and all of my pads have a tendency to drop notes:lol I really need to get Goodwoods or something.

Still have original launch RB1 pads and pedal in good working order (at least as far as RB1 drums go...bazing).

I've had a Value Pedal break and the customer service was great. There should be no problems there.Yeef said:
I'm in need of a new drum set myself. Still have my RB1 drums. Never drops or double hits any notes so that's good, but I don't get any rebound. Makes disco beats tiring. Those $20 silencers were a damn good investment though. Protects the drums very well. Got to save up for an ION soon.
This is not a club that I want to be a part of!
I'm still using launch RB1 drums and never had any problems with them (outside of going through like 7 pedals). Eventually I'll need new drums and I was thinking of splurging for the ions when that time comes around, but October was saying that he'd played on them and didn't like them. I'm not sure if he's just crazy or I should look into alternatives.

Sounds like you have the same setup as me. RB1 drums, silencers and value pedal.Wired All Wrong said:

Yeah, pretty much. When my pedal broke I asked to pay the $20 difference for a higher quality pedal of theirs instead of getting the same pedal, but they were out of stock at the time. It took a while for them to get it in so they just gave me the upgraded pedal at no extra cost since I was patient with them. Really cool people working there.Yeef said:

I added a few of you Baker, Mcbradders, Name, and Cahill. I got my TE stick, now I just gotta brush up to still get my ass kicked in a giant endless GAFRB match.
Gonna play some SSF2HDR and MVC2 tonight with some buddies since I have two sicks now
I also downloaded the KOFXII demo from the JPN store, I didn't know it existed until someone bumped the thread today. I'm not very impressed, it looks nice, but the backgrounds seem too busy, it's hard to focus unless it zooms.

Man in an endless fight? I could care less, it'll be a giant bullshitting chat room. I like Able too, I haven't fought against him much because my friends don't ever pick him though.
Cork, haven't played for a super long time, give me a couple days to get back into it so I can bring some sort of resistance :lol I have one friend that is super good at SF in general. My goal is to play enough to beat him, I've never really got into the technical aspects of SF but I'm looking forward to trying with SSFIV

That's one thing that scares me about buying one. I'd like to at least try it out first. I'm sure PAX probably isn't the best place to get accustomed to a new drum set though. Everyone who owns them says they're awesome so I'm sure it just takes a little while to get used to them. They've got to be better than my RB1 kit though.MrOctober said:

I've heard they make a shitty E-drum kit, so if that is a selling point for you read some reviews about them as an E-drum kid. Personally the PDP silencers provided a lot more bounce for me, and I love the RB2 kit with cymbals. Mine all function almost flawlessly, sometimes the yellow has issues though, if you have ever played real drums you will love the cymbals (but you will hate hate hate the open hat charted to blue)
I hate playing online when my kids are awake, they distract me soo much. They go to bed at 8 mtn time, so I usually play online stuff from like 8pm-2am. But I will play earlier than that, I just don't prefer to.

Nah, I'm not going to use it for a real drum kit. My buddy who is in a band just got a new set and is going to sell me his old kit soon. I'd rather play on a traditional kit than a e-drum set anyway. I just want a RB kit that's going to last a long time since between my brother and I, RB drums get used a lot.Terrordactyl said:

I beat the shit out of my drums and those PDP silencers made my drums last quite a long time. I wish I could acurately tell you how much I've played on them so you get a good idea, but I'm very confident my drums would have fell to shit if I didn't have those. I think using cymbals also helps because you are using your pads less. The Ion starter kit is affordable IMO, so if you want real durability I don't see why they would be a bad option. And if you want to try them out, I assume you are in a decent sized city that has a music store? They are the same drums as the Alesis DM5 I believe and the DM7 are pretty close too, and most music shoppes carry them, so you could call around and see if you can demo a set.

I was planning on just getting the core setup at $199 or whatever it is. Going to a music store to test out a similar kit is a great idea though. I'll have to do that. I'm pretty careful with my kit too. I am still using my RB1 kit after all. It's more my brother and my friends that I have to worry about breaking my shit. Another reason I want to get a better set is I think my RB1 set is holding me back on my scores especially when it comes to rolls and disco beats.Terrordactyl said:

My friend did the same thing. Came over, played one song and broke my pedal. I've gone through about 5 or 6 pedals and I didn't break any of them. Now I have a nice pedal that shouldn't break and a RB1 pedal with a Metal Pedal on it for backup.Baker said:
