thecandyman2007 Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Link to the HARMONIX webiste: http://http://www.harmonixmusic.com/# Link to the Rock Band website: http://www.rockbandgame.com (A really strange official site with almost no information on the game) More sources of information: -The OXM Podcast for April 6th (I think?) talks about the game for a while; not much more than what's been said already....

phlash Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 When in Band world tour when we complete a set or a sond you get a check by it. Some times it a black check and others times it is a orange check... What is the difference? Orange check means you earned fans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orange check means you earned fans? i am pretty sure that the different color checks mean that you completed the song on different difficulties?

MinPinz Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 Yes...the black check means it was done on easy, bronze is medium, silver is hard, and gold is expert. The instrument on the lowest difficulty determines the check color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chupathingy13 Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 The instrument on the lowest difficulty determines the check color. I'm glad they found a surefire system, other than GH's, where the difficulty for the lead determined the overall difficulty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Mage Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 I'm glad they found a surefire system, other than GH's, where the difficulty for the lead determined the overall difficulty. That's not the way it is... It's exactly the same way in GH as it is in Rock Band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
