EyeOfRage7 Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Is anyone else having problems with hitting notes? I know I'm hitting the right button and strumming at the right time but sometimes if I'm strumming down a lot it will just miss notes or randomly end my streak. Is anyone having similar problems and how do you fix it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floyd. Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Stupid question, but - have you calibrated the controller, and if so, tried calibrating again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EyeOfRage7 Posted October 21, 2015 Author Share Posted October 21, 2015 Ya I calibrated twice and have it set to auto calibrate during the game but it keeps ending my streaks like I strummed when I didn't touch anything. Idk what's the deal with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floyd. Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Try turning off auto calibration. Totally stabbing in the dark here, but who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EyeOfRage7 Posted October 21, 2015 Author Share Posted October 21, 2015 I have been reading other people having similar problems. I just hope I don't have to return it and get a new one that's always a pain. And even the new one might have the same problem as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son of Kyuss Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 My guitar was working fine earlier but then all of a sudden I've been missing notes and have experienced ghost strumming. I just hope its a wireless issue and not a hardware issue because this was my biggest fear with having a new peripheral. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EyeOfRage7 Posted October 21, 2015 Author Share Posted October 21, 2015 Ya how would we find out if it was a wireless issue though or an issue with the guitar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osakamitsu Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Yeah i have missed some and I was very confused as to why. But its only every once in a while... And I am not new to guitar hero. Been playing since day one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xRogue 5x Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Not just you guys. Lots of people are having the same issue and I believe it is a hardware issue with the guitar. There are even a couple of youtube clips of people showcasing the problem. The strum bar on this version of the guitar seems to be the culprit. And it appears to be really shoddy. In particular, it is the down strum that is going out for most people. My first one lasted 5 hours/ish before it started to do the either no registering the strum or registering randomly 1 to 3 strums. I returned it to gamestop thinking it was just damaged in shipping and picked up another one. My new one lasted only an hourish before the exact same issue started happening again. Resetting, calibration after endless calibration etc. did nothing to solve the issue once it surfaced. This was extremely frustrating because of how much fun the game is when it works properly. But then again its 2015 so why should they bother shipping a product that actually works. Anyway, returned the second one and put my money toward fallout and battlefront. You had one last chance plastic instrument genre and you blew it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EyeOfRage7 Posted October 21, 2015 Author Share Posted October 21, 2015 So basically the guitar is preventing us from getting 100% in this game? Bc there is a couple achievements that deal with doing a full combo and hitting 100% of the notes in 5 songs on expert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played for a few hours last night and didn't really notice anything. Let's hope it hasn't affected EVERY guitar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I also noticed other than missing notes is that once in a while the song would skip and get really laggy. At one point my tv screen went black for a couple of seconds and came back on. This has never happened when I played any other game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DefTonez6948 Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 been happening to me too, ill hit a note perfectly then ill hear a random err, err..like wtf, i didnt even strum anything, making it really annoying cause itll make it so i get 98 percent but only like 3 or 4 stars from the random streak ends Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mautius Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I guess with guitars malfunctioning that "strum 1,000,000 times" achievement will be next to impossible to get..... Which is an insane achievement to begin with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel55645 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I'm glad to see I'm not the only one with this problem cause it's pissing me off. I can't even get higher than a 10 note streak with out a ghost strum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dab198 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 I was losing my streak all the time until I moved the wireless receiver to a different USB port. I did have it in one of the slots on the rear of the console, but I moved it to the one on the side and it's been fine ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osakamitsu Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 interesting. Mine is in the back as well. I will experiment with this later tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mautius Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 I have had mine on the side from the start and I don't really notice any problems. I do miss the odd note that I thought I should have hit, but I likely just missed it. I am sure you all will have better luck with the side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyre220 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 I find some different problem for you to reference. I have a external ssd in back usb port. I place guitar receiver in back usb port. If I install GH game in external ssd, and launcher the game. The input is crappy in GH Live mode. Can't even play any song. But if works fine in GH TV mode. So I move GH game to internal hd, and reboot the game. Now GH Live mode works fine as GH TV mode. I think the usb mass storage interrupt block the controller interrupt or something similar. So change a usb port as dad198 said could be a solution. And if you install in external storage then try to move it to internal storage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
