Guitar Hero 5 - "21st Century Schizoid Man" X+ Drums 100% FC (880,459)

21st Century Schizoid Man - King Crimson
Yep, that's right. I FC'd this again for Expert+.
Skip to 1:40 for 4 minutes of wtf drums :).
I had another 5 fripp riff 3 chokes whilst going for this one lmao but it didn't feel as infuriating as the normal expert FC for some reason. The X+ adds zero difficulty imo, it just meant I had to FC the song again lol. But at least that means that I have a full video of the FC now instead of just from fripp riff 3, which is nice.
Also, boy do I have a surprise for you guys tomorrow... ;)

Do you remember doing something particular to hit the last kick+sustain at 6:36 ? It seems to be a b*tch to hit in both medium and hard, only got it 3 times in practice and none in full runs. Arvain's comment on SH seems to pinpoint this as the major difficulty in Hard. On Expert (and X+), it seems no one has actually made a comment about it, so maybe this is not a problem in those difficulties ?

[@JoelD77]

I don’t recall having to do anything funky to hit it at all, and it doesn’t sound like I do either from listening. Possibly on those easier difficulties, if it’s reminiscent of other kick+cymbal sustains, you need to hit the cymbal first and then the kick after it or something like that but I’m not sure, sorry!

[@flewerfun]

@@JoelD77 Yeah, I watched this moment in 0.25/0.5/0.75 and it seems there is nothing going on. I tried in practice to hit the note in different ways, nothing seems to be particularly consistent. GH5 sustains are broken anyway.Either way, thank you and good luck on your next achievements !

siick

[@kjl3080]

how did you dodge copyright, the audio is still audible

[@JoelD77]

That is a very good question, I never even noticed. It didn’t even get recognised as the song it seems, so the external drum audio must’ve been loud enough to distort it I guess

[@AbyssionQC]

oh boy a surprise after this?
