Morgutak Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 EDIT - 5 Nov ------------- Methods tested are as follows - Guitar - FC any difficulty - fully working Bass - FC any difficulty - * working (may need the odd reply on Guitar) Drums - Untested Vocals - FC any difficulty inc. using fan trick (majority vote) Is it possible to leave the fan running with the mic in front and still play the song on guitar / bass expert? I.e. - will it work, even if I miss some notes on guitar / bass because the singing will still be "perfect"? (might have to sign in the mic with my "main" gamertag, uh?)

That also raises another question, can these be done in Co-op too? Say I was playing the game with a friend and I FC'ed the songs in question, would he also get the Secret Notes achievements?

Say I was playing the game with a friend and I FC'ed the songs in question, would he also get the Secret Notes achievements? Hi Callum, we've met before, how are you? Just as in GH5, two or more people counts as a band So band scoring applies and your performances and scores combine If you get an FC and your mate 99% or less you both recieve the band average score, star rating and performance percentage This works against you both, because your FC does not count for you or your mate (you've been rounded down to the band average) So not only would he not get your note achieve, you won't get it either As a band all players need an FC for the band to score 100% Then each member will get their note achieve You can still pass and leach bonus stars like in GH5 I suggest doing it alone, otherwise you both need to do beginner fans, which is no fun Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I.e. - will it work, even if I miss some notes on guitar / bass because the singing will still be "perfect"? (might have to sign in the mic with my "main" gamertag, uh?) The fan emits a regular noise and vibration which the game detects as a kind of 'flatline' passing through the middle of the note runway You are therfore playing with a fixed pitch and tone Only notes or parts of them that intersect that line will be picked up by the game Usually the pickup ratio is about 1 in 10 So the singing won't be "Perfect" it will actually be far far from it With 'No Fail' activated you would score about 10% at the end of the song As 'No Fail' disables achievements this is not an option With 'No Fail' [Off] even on Easy you will start to fail and would be lucky to finish the song There's no chance of fan glitching any song on Medium or higher (Except where the song has no pitch or tone - Beastie Boys for eg.) Plus, the whole point of getting the FC is - 100% notes hit = 100% secret notes hit Miss too many notes, you will miss a secret one, then no achieve So - play beginner vocals only on the fan for this to work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ninja Kaspyr 83 Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 I have updated the main post to say mic works i will also confirm that if you do use the mic on easy and just hum into it, the game picks up the humming and registers it as perfect, i did the last 3 songs (Janet Jackson, Rolling Stones, AY & Aj) and nailed it, got all achievements and the 490g one too... so from my experience you CAN use the mic on easy and just hum in to it, that seemed to go pretty well for me....just make sure you perfect the song.....

shadowpwner Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 I unlocked my Treasure Hunter by putting all 19 songs in a setlist and using beginner fan. My achievement unlocked, So I hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missiloon Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 A N Y . . . O R D E R ! A N Y . . . D I F F I C U L T Y ! C A R E E R . . . O R . . . Q U I C K P L A Y (or BOTH mixed) Other band members can piggyback the individual note achievements If 1 player gets a FC all band members get that note achievement My order was - 8 18 9 17 13 4 16 6 11 5 3 1 14 19 7 2 10 12 15+Treasure Hunt together This wasn't working for me. I played a few songs in quick play and some in the carreer. Got all the note achievements but the 490g didn't unlock. Now replaying the songs but still not have the achievement.

Got all the note achievements but the 490g didn't unlock. Now replaying the songs but still not have the achievement. There are two achievements where the achivement pictures look similar, like this - [15] One is Secret Notes 15 the other is 15 Minutes Of Fame check you have the right one bud Other than that, it has been confirmed you can start a new save on another storage device Just do all 19 again in Quickplay and it will unlock Only takes another 90 mins of course good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve36ty Posted November 7, 2009 Author Share Posted November 7, 2009 I must be the only person thinking why 490G for one achievement XD Maybe Activision/Neversoft/whoever were trying their own spin on Halo 3's IWHBYD skull "Something new and inventive, a mystery and puzzle the likes of which the gaming community has never experienced before" type of bull cr#p When the 19th and final note is 'finally' discovered your rewards for musical greatness shall be 1 for 490G OR To mask the smell of the setlist and that they're milking everyone by releasing the same game twice, is the 490G merely more rental income from score wh#res (like me) ? lol I say grab the points then run to the hills naked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvoHero Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 This wasn't working for me. I played a few songs in quick play and some in the carreer. Got all the note achievements but the 490g didn't unlock. Now replaying the songs but still not have the achievement. I didn't get the Treasure Hunt achievement either, and I have both Secret Notes 15 and 15 Minutes of Fame, so I'm sure I got them all. My question is whether or not I can get the achievement if I earn the achievement in competitive modes. I figure that it works fine if you earn some secret note achievements in band quickplay or band career, but I earned one or two playing pro-faceoff. So I wonder if that messed something up. I will say that it is extremely disappointing to not have the achievement right now, especially since you have to play a lot of songs that are (IMO) not very fun to play. Oh well.

You're the third person to report that here Lets hope a trend isn't developing The first guy this happened to replayed all 19 on a new save on a different storage device which then unglitched it Hope you get it, if not plz report back here and I'll start a glitch post and try get it stickied For the record, I started in career and got about 4 or 5 secret achieves there before switching to Quickplay, where I got the rest including 'Treasure Hunt' So mixing modes worked for me on my main gold account Then I tested the method I posted here on a silver account and also a local profile My sucess rate for Treasure Hunt is 3 out of 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't it still glichty ? There will be more people like me who don't have a second storage, I think it should unlock when you get al the secret notes. I have play them all again in career and still don't have the achievement. EDIT! Finally I got it. after I did all the 19 songs 3 times.

PerpetualHeaven Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Ah right, thanks. I did them all alone, but now I know not to attempt to help people with getting theirs. That kind of sucks though. You can do it in co-op, but I haven't tried it with another person signed into his or her account. For example, I have got all my secret notes while playing with my girlfriend. I played on guitar and she played on microphone. Sometimes she would get 75-90% and I would still get the secret note achievement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
