GH5 Drum Engine Broken?

[llamaman2]

Another issue is (at least on the Wii) note counts for any song on expert that also has X+ are wrong. There are scores posted for 5*'s with 65% on DWEDFN and whenever I play a song with X+ I always get a very low percent even when I hit almost everything in the song.

yep, confirmed it on my game too. did Spirit of Radio and the double bass portions i continually couldn't hit a single note on.

Did "Anything" and failed the intro repeatedly because I couldn't get a single bass pedal to connect, on WT i was hitting them and keeping 4x.

Tried the Chimara (sp?) song, couldn't hit any of the bass during the double bass portions, was able to combo them on WT.

Even on normal songs, I notice that the timing window is super weird, I can play a note REALLY late and hit it, but if i'm even more than a little early, miss.

If I get the chance I might make a video pointing this stuff out to hopefully bring greater awareness to it, thus = activision getting on it faster.

I've noticed that on the "broken" songs if you just play by ear you won't miss. I also noticed that playing by ear on the "broken" songs showed me hitting notes well below the strike line - pretty much the very bottom of the screen (HS4).

i really wish we could get some sort of update on this. it's been over a month and all we've gotten was one simple we're looking into it. i understand that this type of glitch can take time to fix, but unlike the slider notes in ghwt, certain songs are completely broken, and i'd really like to play the metal songs in this game and not worry about failing randomly.

I've noticed a few more things that seemed broken.

When playing Why Bother, I can hit as fast as I want in the green intro roll and I'll still combo it.

Also, when playing the scatterbrain outro, theres this GBGBG part that seems almost impossible to combo (it's not that fast or anything), I only hit it once, and tried it for like 30 min. (on expert+, so this has nothing to do with the wellknown expert chart glitch)

And I dunno if it's just me, but some sustains, like the Younk Funk intro are really hard for me to combo, it's probably not broken, but I feel like it should be easier to not break your streak randomly when going from one sustain to another.

There's a few more things I ran into that I can't think of at the moment.

You know I don't think the bass is broken on PS2. Otherwise I wouldn't even be able to pass Demons or DWEDFN

Sweating Bullets doesn't give me problems, trying playing the polyrhythms late on the bass notes. It helps a lot.

This happens to me a lot too. I'm playing On Broken Glass, cruising along the intro using both feet on 1 pedal (Blindz0r style ) and then i reach the 2nd prechorus which is almost the exactly the same speed of pedal notes and miss almost everything. And I need serious focus to concentrate on Overkill or i start missing a ton when i could do it easily if it didnt have an X+ tag on it.

It is only an issue in GH5 anyway, so I'm not sure why that guy is waffling on about band hero.

certain songs are known to be broken, however a lot of what ppl are complaining about is because GH5 was made to play better on HDTV's, the timing window was moved back considerably.

for example, on overkill on expert i can get over 600k on WT. i played on GH5 and failed the intro. however, if i hit the notes "late", as in after they get past the strike line, i combo everything just fine. it seems to be a major problem for those who play on tv's that dont need calibration (like me) but if you talk to someguy or some other ppl that play on HD for the most part, they'll tell you it looks like they're hitting stuff really late, but if you play it by ear (hit the drums as they sound) you'll do fine.

it just seems to be a big penalty for being even a little bit early, just move the timing window in your head back a little bit and give it a shot and see if it helps you any
