name: caprici di diablo

song length: 269 seconds (4:29 minutes)

possible HOPOs on expert: 1828

average HOPOs hit per second: 6.796

 

not that this song is the best choice, but i dare anybody to find a song with a higher HOPO ratio than this monster. give me the guitar chart and i will find the ratio.

 

edit: also, adding on to this:

 

IF this song has the highest HOPO ratio in the game AND it takes a total of 20 seconds (average) to restart the song, you COULD POSSIBLY get this achievement in 2 hours 25 minutes.

\m/ i knew beasting this song would pay off some day

 

"For the "85% guitar solos" achievement I took Rainbow In The Dark and Crazy Train down to Hard difficulty"

 

n00b... lol jk :p

Surprised to see that Hysteria by Muse isn't in the list. Don't have an official count for it on Expert Guitar, but by my count there is 426 hopos in the song.

 

Not to mention it clocks in at 3:47 (227 seconds), so it has at about 1.8767 hopos per second and really isn't that difficult a song to play (probably count it as an orange one on the list).

To whomever asked the significance of the number 53,596, it's a continuation of a joke that started with Dead Rising's "Zombie Genocider" achievement which required killing 53,594 zombies, or the population of the town of Willamette, Colorado. Left 4 Dead upped the ante with "Zombie Genocidest" which unlocked after slaying 53,595 undead. So "HOPO-cidal Maniac" takes it one step further.

 

A few suggestions that strike a balance between high HOPO concentrations and playability:

 

Alabama Getaway (I know it's already been mentioned)

Ramblin' Man

Blue Sky (Damn you, Dickie Betts)

Synchronicity II

Tuesday's Gone

 

All of these put out the HOPOs even at Hard level and are manageable at Hard with an occasional challenge, e.g. the solo in Blue Sky.
