I wonder if it remembers to flip which way an upstrum is when i'm playing Lefty

Of course it does! Have you no faith in us?

So you could set lifty flip and then downstrum stuff right handed to get it. Of course playing mirror mode to get an upstrum twist is sort of like swallowing the spider to kill the fly for most people..

I'm not sure that would work either. The accelerometer tilt sensor will be able to tell which way is down so you couldn't fool that way.
There is a way to get the achievement even if you can't upstrum or read the notes backward. You could is turn on lefty flip, hang upside down and watch the game on an upside down tv reflected off of a mirror.

Or just learn to upstrum for gods sake!

So with the World Tour Mode article on gamespot (sushi has a thread about it in this subforum), two things become pretty obvious that weren't totally clear before. So gigs, that seems obviously to be the different activites that are specific to each city (and probably venue specific ones inside each city too), such as the mentioned mystery set lists, stuff liek punk marathon, etc. Also, "endless setlist" is probably the name for the equivalent mode to quickplay/career in GH games which would probably just have a setlist of all the 45 liscenced songs (+bonus?) and keep track of the top scores on them like in GH career mode. (its endless, see because you can keep adding songs to it via DLC - cute, though i expect you only have ot pass the original ones that ship with the game to get the achievement).

Are we gonna get explanation of this "gig" thing soon?

If it hasn't been announced already I shouldn't say anything about it yet.

It has the potential to be really epic :P

It certainly does...


Seeing as the gamespot article has now answered my question, I know it will be.

And I can see why you would make achievements out of them.

Achievements on http://www.xbox360achievements.org or it didnt happen.

lol saying that only half joking. I mean those achievements are pretty bland...I mean theres nothing special particular to any songs. Its pretty much just beat every mode, then 5* every mode, and fc the singing modes?

I'm pretty sure that I get the metaphor and still have no idea what that means.

And, in regards to up/downstum and lefty flip... it was like that in GH2 (don't remember about GH1). If you lefty flip the guitar, but keep playing righty, then trying to scroll down the main menu was really scrolling it up.

i would have thought this upstrum achievement brought more realism into the game. since the way to play a bass is to pluck upwards (some people use a pick but i would assume the majority pluck, if someone could back me up?)

and if a bassist happens to pick up RB chances are they will play bass, so it should be 2nd nature to them

How would you get 100% on vocals.... I can see a certain score can be set as the highest but 100%? there isnt really any notes.

Both of those methods of play (mirror mode = playing with lefty flip on but hold the guitar as a righty; upstum = hit all the notes strumming only up) are twists for the GH leagues. And consensus would be that mirror twist is significantly more difficult than upstrum twist, particularly to get an FC on.

Excellent on all phrases. Vocal scoring is done phrase by phrase, and depending on how much of the phrase you get right, you get a ranking of Lousy, Poor, Average, Good, or Excellent, and a score depending on it.

Incorrect, see this thread: http://community.rockband.com/vbforum/showthread.php?t=5685

The endless setlist is a marathon where you have to, with at least 2 people, play through the entire setlist without stopping. No saves, have to restart if you fail a song. It's unclear whether it'll include any DLC or bonus songs, but playing every licensed song back to back is painful enough. It's also still unclear as to what achievement you get, if, say, the guitarist is on expert, bassist on hard, drums on medium, and vocalist on easy. Probably the most exhausting challenge ever in a rhythm game.[/quote]

The bass and the vocals are the only really hard parts. Bass because of the up strumming and vocals because I can't sing and it should be hard to get 100% anyway.
