Broken Talkie in This Afternoon?

Hey guys I was wondering if anyone else is having trouble hitting this talkie at the end of the song. It is the very last ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha phrase. I can get the pie to fill about 7/8 of the way, but at the end of the phrase, the pie will just not move anymore. I have tried saying it, and whispering it, but it isn't working.

Has anyone else had trouble with this talkie, or do I just suck?

EDIT: I'm pretty sure this is an Alive (Live) situation. The arrow doesn't even show up at the end of the talky.

Yep, it appears to be deader than a door nail. Actually seems kind of odd for an all-talky phrase where some of them work and some of them don't. I'd expect it more from something like Inside Out where there's singing at the beginning.

Looks like the programming just doesn't extend all the way to the end of the window or something. Very disappointing to still be getting these after almost 2 years =/

Just another plus for TB:RB, GD:RB (& RB3 to come)

Well that's good that someone else thinks it's broken too. It's a shame that these even happen at all because it just seems like lazy programming, or lazy playtesting on Harmonix's part. I guess 5/6 vox FCs will have to do for me.

It is a broken talkie but it isn't unhittable. This video here is proof: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptmqCwK_nFk

Apparently you have to blow into the mic during that phrase to hit it... strange.

I have the 360 version and I've hit the talky once.

I do exactly what's done in that video in terms of timing and sensitivity, but I say the "a" part of each "ha". It's not very consistent, but it's the first thing I thought to do and I hit it on my first try.

I'm really good with talkies. I've hit everything that's hittable that I've owned & played (except the Ow in NTY on RB1 which I never pursued). I can fairly consistently hit the talkies in OWOA, This Ain't A Scene, The Kill, etc. But none of them do what this one does, at least for me.

For me, this talkie acts exactly like the talkie in Inside Out. The arrow disappears and the pie comes to a dead stop. I have gotten a strong twice (but the talkie still stopped cold) and that was with perfect timing. Usually I get an okay but I've even gotten weak.

We watched that video and did everything exactly the same but the result did not change. The arrow doesn't even flicker on the last two words it disappears entirely. Blows out just like a candle.

I will eventually try deleting the pack and re-downloading it to see if maybe it's just glitched. If I could get the arrow to show up even once for a milisecond within the last two words of the window I wouldn't stop until I got it but it never has.

As Joe stated, I've used EVERY sensitivity, EVERY timing, EVERY trick known for talkies. I even set the mic in the floor to see if it would play itself (because it does on all the others in the song) but nothing has gotten that arrow to appear =/

Took me a decent amount of tries, but i got it, just a few minutes ago. Sorry about no video, I was just experimenting to see if I could hit it

I'll try and record one soon of it.

My opinion on this talkie is that it's an OWOA situation-- Extremely finicky but possible to hit. I hit it with mic sensitivity maxed out like the video, and I did a quiet, breathy sort of whisper. My mouth was very, very close to the mic too. I'm not sure if it's a consistent technique, but it did work on my first time trying it.

Other notes: I downloaded the entire pack, so the pack file is not glitched. I also play on the 360. And with the pic, I play solo in band quickplay because i like using my character, so that is why my gamertag is not on it. GT is terrorisly, by the way.

That's all I have to say on this subject.
