They could of very easily built up to that type of speed or at least allowed the "riff I wonder who they thought they were making this game/software for? Some of it is very simple, but there are other areas that were made extremely difficult. I just finished a lesson on palm mutes, for bass, then they go to a practice track that is so fast a beginner is lost before it really starts. I wonder who they thought they were making this game/software for? Some of it is very simple, but there are other areas that were made extremely difficult. The installation and login procedures are more cumbersome than logging into a Swiss bank's accounts database and the AI intended to assist guitar players in improving knowledge, technique and skills is lack luster at best. The Bottom Line: While RS 2014 is the Best $50 guitar lesson one would ever hope to buy, it is neither a jack of all trades nor a master of one. ![]() This is something one would expect from Microsoft after 4 new iterations of MS Office, not something one would expect from a second-generation G/LT. Having non-backwardly compatible expansion packs is yet another of the tell-tale signs this is gaming platform software. While I know the overwhelming majority of the tracks note-for-note, but in need of polish, I purchased it online as at Least One of the THREE websites regarding the pack stated that it was compatible with RS2014. Downloadable Play Content (DPC): Being a Huge Rush fan, I wanted to make use of the 5-song expansion pack. After half a dozen runs playing every note (again confirmed by multiple tabs acquired over the years), I was assigned a lesson for "bends." (The only bends in the track are in the solo, many of which require a trem which I don't have on my LPC). After going through the track in game about 4 times, I was assigned a lesson regarding "position changes." Similarly, I have played Rush's "The Spirit of Radio" since 1982 but have always felt my execution of the signature riff needed polish. Learning Tool: I have been playing Iron Maiden's "The Trooper" for over 25 years (note for note on all rhythm parts confirmed by multiple tabs I have read) but have never had a tremendous amount of success with the solo phrasing. #Rocksmith 2014 edition tips for beginners software#In order to advance in the game and begin learning more complex pieces, the player must successfully pass through a series of "lessons" the software deems appropriate given performance on particular tracks the user has accessed. As a game, it awards points and level advancement based on (seemingly) arbitrary ability to hit particular notes as they approach on the interface. Game Play: RS 2014 purports itself to be both a game and a learning tool, but fills neither role particularly well. ![]() This is but one of the tell-tale signs of this G/LT as gaming-platform software. #Rocksmith 2014 edition tips for beginners mac#Given the sophistication of the software, RS2014's programmers should be able to make this game start with a simple double-click by merely linking the software and PK to the MAC address on the host PC. #Rocksmith 2014 edition tips for beginners code#Having written SAS code for over 20 years, SQL code for more than 10 and possessing over 20 years writing macros for every kind of software imaginable, this is overkill. Logging In: Once the G/LT is started and the PK confirmed, a second login is required by UbiSoft for the Profile Created and the ability to utilize web-based content and tools. Moreover, despite its relatively recent release date, registering unique user account names is equally unwieldy. #Rocksmith 2014 edition tips for beginners install#The requirements to install the software, create an account with UbiSoft and register the software are cumbersome at best. I have installed and re-installed the software At Least FOUR times. Guitar: 1977 Les Paul Custom Cans: Shure SRH-440 Installation: Ordinarily installation of any complex and interactive software requires more than a single attempt. Platform: Win 7 Pro, intel Core i7, dedicated Radeon Graphics, 6GB RAM. #Rocksmith 2014 edition tips for beginners Pc#Having played guitar for over 40 years and possessing more than 20 years online gaming experience, I felt confident that I could find a way to make this software work on PC with reasonable results despite its game console (PS, X-Box, etc.) heritage. I purchased this game/learning tool (G/LT) to spice up my practice and (hopefully) learn something new. Reason for 2 stars? It's the Best $50 guitar lesson to be found.
