RB teams used to be more competitive and segregated when the game was more popular, but over time that chilled out and now the whole "exclusive" team thing is more of a formality for uploading. Just about everyone that's still playing full band stuff in 2016 knows eachother well, and we're all good friends on skype and xbox etc.

I can't wait to play harmonica solos on guitar! I love the direction Harmonix is taking the game in! Who needs customization/actually different venues/decent animations?
>>
>>340373514
>>
>>340385232
The game is barely held together and is barebones even 8 months after release, but I'd always rather have a fun chart with other instruments than a dull one with just guitar. It's awful that keys are cut for good but the only good thing about it is that now the guitar charts themselves will feel less gutted when there's little going on. Like that blues traveler song that came out today is sick to play but if they didn't put that harmonica SOMEWHERE it would have felt a lot more like a missed opportunity.

>>340385585
True, I am just being salty about it I guess. I just don't see why it would be so hard to re-launch the game with keys along with the expansion pack or something. I go around the internet being the "complains about harmonica solos"
My biggest argument to it is that in a franchise with thousands of songs, does one of those songs really need to be a little more interesting?

Probably because of the work you put in to get it, but I agree with you there.

The red one was pretty difficult. 2 was definitely more challenging, especially because the routes leading to them were never obvious.

Blue: Don't collect any boxes
Red: A secret entrance, jumping on random boxes that would otherwise seem like suicide
Purple: Jumping on god damn nitro crates, like why would they even do that
Green: Jumping through a solid wall, with absolutely zero indication
Yellow: GOTTA GO FAST

The only one that's even obvious is yellow, and that's only because the level gives you a timer.
