I kind of doubt there will be 5 instruments at the same time. In fact id be stunned if it happens.

Then what's the point. You can't have a full band in Rock Band? Dumb.

The best solution, and the one every game should have, is letting me just have one highway/instrument on screen when I play online, and somehow convey to me when other people use OD so I can join in.

Local multi-player, fucked if I know. I don't mind GH5's layout for four people, but I imagine piano will need more room than guitar and drums, and that'll make everything else even smaller.

The best thing ever is my favourite thing. I see no reason to downgrade the validity of my own opinion.

My favorite actor is Jackie Chan, I would sound like a fucking fool if I said Jackie Chan is the best actor ever.

I always imagined keyboard going under the vocals, and having the same "portrait" layout instead of falling notes.

Come on hmx.

And they'll allow everyone to play at once with voxtar/bass/drums/board. GH5 did four highways, why can't RB3?

Because one of those highways seems like it made need a lot more room, unless it's just a 5 note keyboard. In which case, sooo lame

That works, but then the notes are coming down over the background animation, right? Seems like it could be kinda ugly looking and hard to see.
 
What if there is no on-screen display and the physical keys just light up or something? I don't know how you'd work out timing/next notes though.

Stoplight design, perhaps? Something like two warning lights that gradually fall and then the whole key lights up.

Well I think the problem exists in what form the keyboard will exist in. It won't be much of a keyboard if there are only five frets.

The only good thing Muse has ever done.

I was thinking that. However, then you would seriously never be looking at the game and that's not fun.

Although, then you could play RB while on the toilet.
 
Also we need the "performer" mode where both instrument and vox are tied to one account and go to a new leaderboard. How else will i able to imitate Axl?

If Piano Man and Tiny Dancer made it somehow I would be fucking so excited. Also add me to the plz for Meat Loaf team.
From Billy Joel, I'd want the following before Piano Man...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ed_-brFWYdQ (would be fun on just about everything...especially drums)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppFu62lbI2g (just tell me that 2:00 wouldn't be fucking awesome for a band to play)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChG-zoaCqvY (another banjo-tune, with an incredible piano solo...drums might suck, depending on how you feel about shuffle beats)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIUeyDLV6LQ (the one to use if you're going to show off the piano...sax and clarinet parts might have to get charted to the guitar, though)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqnpeG--bkU (not much in the way of piano here, but a great bass line, and some good drum hits)


Fuck it...Harmonix, since I know you're reading this and hanging on my every word, just give us Piano Man and The Stranger as full album downloads and put The Entertainer on the disk.
