Theories on Freestyle Sections? Help me update OP D:

It seems to gain more points the more you change your pitch for the songs I've played at least. When I just went at one pitch, the game wasn't giving me any points.

Alright, so I tested this out.

I held the mic to the speakers of my keyboard, went to Crazy Train, and played each note. I held each note for about 1 second or so, so it registered. And sure enough, playing A, B, C#, D, E, F#, and G# got me a 7x multiplier.

I just tested out freeforms in Hotel Cali. Went through a chromatic scale, and got a 7x in each one. Only scored points when I was on a pitch in the tonal scale. My final score was 272k+, with an average multiplier (get this) of 9.387. AND, I borked a phrase early in the song that made me break combo. My score at the end of the actual vocals was about 159k. So, from the five freeforms, I got about 113k.

I also just did Dammit, did the same thing, and scored a 220 x1 in one of the freeforms. That was my BEST freeform.

If this is not the most broken-ass scoring system I've ever seen, I don't know what is.

Being the vocalist for my WT band, I've got a question that doesn't seem answered. What if you just hummed the notes that are being played in the song?

This + Drum fill sections = Idiotic scoring systems all around in WT. Wow.

Ive been trying out the scale thing, but it seems only to work on some songs. While I do agree that changing the pitch increases multiplier, some pitches dont even register on the game. On Assassin, I have had 3 pitches that are incapable of registering in the game (Im 100% sure Im in the right key). This vocal system is extremely difficult to understand.

Also, when I try to change pitches throughout the key, my system doesnt even register that Im singing at times. It takes several seconds to register that I am, and by that time the phrase is over and Im stuck with a 450 x 4 multiplier. I cant seem to figure this out. Ive had better luck just singing the magic pitch and getting 2000 x 3 multiplier. Its frustrating.

I have no proof, but I am going to try to make a video. I just now got up to x9 during the freeform in What I've Done only using random sounds with my voice. Perhaps this means that you can use a chromatic scale instead of a systematic scale and get up to x14?

Unfortunately, THABEAST, it's not that simple. Many tones seem to not work, and it might be possible that some tones only work during certain sections of freeform sections (like my earlier idea about chord progressions). This system seems very complex, and a lot more tests need to be run to figure it out =/
