So goooooooooood. He's insane.

 

[Baker]

That avatar is great Dave. It makes the picture look even more creepy barely legal amateur porn-ish.

Dog will be passed in a couple minutes and I'll have a vodic tonic in hand so I'm up for whatever if anyone wants to get some multiplayer action going.

 

[McBradders]

McBradders, be a man and play RB2 with me now.

My missus is sleeping

 

[TheGreatDave]

My missus is sleeping

Play guitar, she'll never know.

Baker, I'm up for playing. Cos you're one of the few people with it play GH5 with me -_-

Alright. Can you do party mode online? I'd like to set the mic and guitar up and switch between the two or double fist.

I don't like singing 90% of those songs or I'd just do that.

We can't. You can go back to the lobby to switch though.

Ah ok. I'm hopping on now.

I didn't see this posted in here. KB confirmed for RB3. (no keytar?)

Hey everyone - happy Friday!

It's awesome that you've all been discussing the little surprise we snuck into the GDRB demo. Some of you have posed questions about what that little surprise means and right now I can answer one - we are very excited to confirm keyboard support for RB3.

We know you've all got a TON of other questions but sit tight - we'll have a lot more RB3 news in a few weeks at E3. (Trust us, you'll be amazed).

If you haven't gotten to see the RB3 teaser screen for yourself yet, the Green Day Rock Band demo is still available. Download it to check everything out for yourself.

 

[Ridley327]

Things sure are getting interesting for the keyboard. Can't wait to see it in action.

 

[BigBlackGamer]

I can't wait to play Clocks in RB3.

 

[Baker]

I need a minute Dave. A bug or something got into my DLP and it's casting a shadow on the screen. It's fucking driving me crazy.

 

[Chris R]

I can't wait to play Clocks in RB3.

I wouldn't mind Coldplay in RB3, because I don't own Singstar, and playing Vocals on those songs should prove to be fun at parties :|

[Christoff Yurievich]

if they've been showing RB3 to press, shouldn't said press be talking about the keyboard stuff now since it's been officially confirmed?

 

[TheGreatDave]

RIP, Gary.

 

[BigBlackGamer]

looks like mini-daddy.

It's entirely possible that there's details about it that had to be embargoed until a certain date.

 

[Ronabo]

RIP, Gary.

:lol :lol :lol Badass dude.

Smokin' Baby approves.

 

[Baker]

I messed with my GH5 calibration and I'm way off Dave, sorry.

 

[TheGreatDave]

Judging from SA, I'm guessing Harmonix wanna hide the fact it's a keytar as long as possible

 

[Baker]

I got tired of playing GH5 with the surround sound off but I cannot fucking get anywhere close to calibrating it right with dolby on.

 

[Mileena]

Only former Activision employees can get proper GH5 calibration

 

[Ridley327]

I'm reading SA right now and I don't see anything of the sort outside of Duck being a smartass.

 

[Terrordactyl]

The dolby mixing in GH and RB is worse than the standard mix imo. I never use them, it should be noted that RBs is worse.

 

[TheGreatDave]

I saw disappointment when it came out. Besides, Duck is the only guy I pay attention to.

 

[McBradders]

RIP, Gary.

:lol

 

[Rewrite]

I find it amusing that everyone's all happy about Spoon over at SA and only a few selected individuals care about it in here. :lol

 

[DuckRacer]

The whole "hey guys we're confirming keyboard support in Rock Band 3!", sidestepping the whole peripheral issue and causing people to think that there won't be a keytar.

 

[Ridley327]

To be fair, nothing is stopping you from putting a keytar on a table or a keyboard stand; it is the same thing in the end.

You just look dorkier one way.

 

[Hop]

Yes, I chose Jesus Christ Pose just to be a badass. Didn't really work.

 

[TheGreatDave]

OMG Jesus Christ Pose is the worst thing ever.

Keytars aren't dorky, no matter what Big Mike says.

 

[Hop]

OMG Jesus Christ Pose is the worst thing ever.

Glad you enjoyed it.

:lol

Bass is actually worse than guitar

I love the song, but wow.

 

[Baker]

The dolby mixing in GH and RB is worse than the standard mix imo. I never use them, it should be noted that RBs is worse.

You can barely hear the crowd singing without dolby in RB though. And with the auto-calibration it's no problem.

I got tired of having to turn my receiver to insane levels just to hear GH.

 

[Space Cadet]

OMG Jesus Christ Pose is the worst thing ever.

Umm...No. Bass is absolutely brutal, though.

 

[Hop]

I love the song, but wow.

Tier 6 vs. Tier 4, what'd you expect? :lol

 

[Space Cadet]

Also: Why did you buy it? Did you not check the check on youtube beforehand?

 

[TheGreatDave]

Tier 6 vs. Tier 4, what'd you expect? :lol

Well I wasn't looking at the screen when you picked it, so I didn't see the difficulty levels.

Space Cadet, I bought it cos I love the song, and I felt that love alone could overcome any difficulties.

Anyway, nice playing with you both!

 

[Baker]

Also: Why did you buy it? Did you not check the check on youtube beforehand?

I never heard the song before. My buddy gave me money to buy it and we never played it until someone picked it tonight.

I would have failed by 30% if I didn't figure out I could sing it super deep and get credit for it. Me <- doesn't understand the concept of pitch. Hence why I just scream in bands.

Edit: Oh I didn't know I was playing with Charron. What's up? As you can tell, I'm not a singer hehe.

 

[Baker]

Anyone want to play L4D2 PC (I'd have to d/l first) or RDR 360?

If not, I might try out some of these shitty games from that Lucasarts $5 pack I bought on steam the other day.

 

[Archie]

What's your Steam name?

 

[ahvostik]

I'm getting sick and tired of reading this "just put it on a stand" bullshit.

keytar charts = one hand playing

true keyboard/piano charts = TWO hands.

if the peripheral is a keytar and not a keyboard. HARMONIX FAIL! End of story.

 

[Baker]

What's your Steam name?

I think it's fleshbaker. I couldn't remember my password so had to make a new account when I built this pc.

Are you saying I should buy L4D2?

Agreed and I don't really care about either. However, if it's a keytar there is no way in hell it will have more than 5 buttons. That alone is a failure and discredits any "put it on a table" argument.
