Can't you still unlock all of the content just by playing through the game on Normal? Complaining about not being able to beat GH3 on the highest level is like complaining about not being able to beat Wolfenstein on the hardest difficulty. You just need to be really freaking good at the game in order to do it. |

Of course, you could always enter an "unlock all songs" cheat. >_>
I've tried dabbling into a few songs on expert, I apparently can 5-star "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" and "Story of My Life." I know, they're tier 1 songs, but I'm surprised I could play them. o_o |

I don't see why everyone hates this one all of a sudden, when (to me, at least) it feels exactly the same as the previous two.

You can unlock most of the content in Easy, like Omagnus posted, but it's not about unlocking everything, it's about improving, and being able to play better on higher difficulties. Guess it's a personal feat; not required, but always nice to be able to do. Fuck, I'm sure I won't beat Raining Blood on Expert in about 5 months if I play frequently. :tpg: Edit Quote:
No, don't start with Through the Fire and Flames, please. That song is frustrating, and won't beat it in a long time. Period. :( |

Am I the only person who wishes that instead of ramping up the difficulty of the lower tiers just to make veterans happy, they'd just go and make another difficulty level higher than Expert?
|
How do people get used to hitting GRB or RYO chords quickly? Getting my fingering to hit those is just... unnatural. =/
|
To be honest? The same way that I'm getting used to playing Hard. Practice, practice, practice. And tons of it.

There seems to be some confusion about the point I was trying to make about pull-offs.
Of course you can hold down lower fret buttons whenever you're pressing a single higher fret button (2 & 3 notes you have to press only those buttons) and this is especially helpful on parts that require you to alternate between the same high and low fret over and over while strumming. But the actual "use" of a pull-off was the ability to hit a series of fast notes without strumming (the glowing notes). In the original Guitar Hero, this was the ONLY way to hit descending glowing note streams. You had to hold down all the notes in the stream and pull-off each finger at the right time to hit the rest of the notes. It's hard to explain without pictures :P Anyway, I'm glad they beefed up the difficulty. If anything, they should put an extra difficulty in between medium and hard to bridge the learning gap. They really can't make the game much harder, and expert should always be considered the top level. (although if they ever announced a "Master" level, I'd be all over that =p) |

Still require a lot of practice. ;_; |
I love the concept of the Guitar Hero games, although as a guitar player I'd say it's not that very close to the real deal (well I know that is kinda obvious but still), and I wish they had found a better use for the whammy bar cause now you just wham it like crazy to fill the star meter.
I can understand playing the game for fun a couple of times, but practicing to get real good is no use I think. If you have time to practice imitating to play the guitar it's just better to practice playing the real deal because it's more rewarding in the end. And bout the game, I think this game has the best songs so far, lots of great tunes in this one (except the fucking slayer song, god how I hate Slayer! The song is crap and it's not even fun to play). The bonus songs suck as always though. |
Has anyone actually gotten to the death train on The Devil Went Down to Georgia on expert? I've beaten Lou several times, but getting to the end of the song is a hell of a lot more difficult... He kills me when I get around 3/4 of the song. ;_;
|
Same here... except I failed on Medium. I shudder to think about what it's going to be like on Hard (when I get there eventually, and oh lord I will).

Although I have to admit...I think GH made using my index and ring finger together a lot easier on a real guitar. My hand doesn't cramp up like it used to when I started and it feels a lot more natural. Plus, I think GH is a good way for people to gain an appreciation of just what a real guitarist is doing, where notes are (like how constant greens simulate strumming the low E string), how fast you have to make transitions on the fretboard and how many notes a real guitarist is firing off, especially when you can barely hit enough to pass on a simplified toy. |

Okay, question: I just came across this new magical drug that improves my scores called "Hyper Speed". Anyone else use it? I played around with it for a few hours last night and I boosted most of my scores by pretty significant amounts. Once I got used to the speed boost, it spaced everything out so I don't have clumps of notes I have to hit at a time, so I wasn't losing my multipliers on scaled rows of notes every 2 seconds and made it so my brain could actually process the solos. Personally, I think it's a lot more enjoyable with it on.
Oh, and I happen to love Slayer, but I'm not really looking forward to anymore of their songs in GH. Ditto Dragonforce. And it doesn't helped RB that it has the same stupid bassline I hate in Barracuda leading into Mosh 1. |

I personally prefer to play without hyperspeed because I feel better playing the game the way it was meant to be played. I tried hyperspeed briefly and it boosted a bunch of my scores because the notes were easier to read. I kind of felt bad so I only use it when I'm playing against someone who "has" to use it (since I don't have a choice :P and I feel bad for them because it makes me play better =P). I don't really consider it cheating, I just like the extra challenge of having to decipher notes close together.
|
Yeah, I don't consider it "cheating" either, but I understand why its' not the default either (considering how many people struggle moving from medium to hard for the speed). It screws me up a little on songs that require rapid-strumming, but helps for just about everything else...My hand actually hurts because I'm able to hit everything now. ;p
But yeah, from here on out, I'll ask whoever I'm playing if they use hyperspeed and if not...No big deal. |
Quick question; is it possible to use Hyperspeed in Hard? and if so, how to do it?

It's a code you have to enter in the cheats menu.
Also, Avalancha is awesome as hell. |

Here's the cheat. You just enter the cheat under the options menu, and make sure you strum the same time you push the frets as well. Spoiler:
