[@oibattery3198]

Laniya Davidson he didn't progress

[@feliciastuddard6458]

There r people who can insert a usb cable on the first time using the game.also u need 2 know that if your game controller is connected by a wired connection it is usb ad well.

[@Joshakazam20]

I take guitar lessons every Monday and play rocksmith. The lessons help with music theory and how to create chords and play scales off a certain key. rocksmith help improve your techniques and teaches you songs

[@Paulie8K]

this game really does work. I've have the first one since Feb of 2012 and have probably logged around 200 hours into the old (btw, I really wish there was some log that indicate total time played to show the relationship between time spend and progress) and I have made tremendous progress. I had no previous guitar playing guitar at 25 years old and thought I had no chance at my age. I now have an electric and an acoustic and know many songs, chords, riffs, scales etc. I love it!

[@nickpapagiorgio8038]

I've noticed some people post things about technique & this game not teaching that. While I can somewhat agree that there is no real way to know for sure you are doing something correctly or holding your hands, the pick, or whatever correctly, there are tutorials available in the game that help teach all these things. Part of the problem I can see is the lack of a forced method to learn these vitals (meaning anyone can bypass the essentials because they have no attention span or just aren't interested in really learning). Of course, if it was forced down your throats, many people would probably lose interest). Take your time & use ALL the tools the game provides. You will improve. You will actually be playing a guitar. What you do with it & how far you take it is up to you.

[@lastone032085]

Correct.Technique is taught in the game as well. It's just not forced onto you. I think out of everyone on the 60 day challenge this guy, brian was the weakest. Rosson the other hand definitely looked like he was using all the tutorials.

[@oibattery3198]

JT Mish True

[@matthewmacdougall3198]

Everyone in all of these videos has held their picks in a really strange way, I can't explain it

[@TheSlimyMiner]

Disturbing picking technique

[@susanna8612]

It would be so good, if there would be chord and tabs sheet section alone for every song. They are there of course along the song but its moving fast and in the beginning it would always be good go through, read your tabs and chords before starting to play or practising.

[@blaines8832]

Rocksmith 2014 allows you to view the normal tab with every song, it's in the song menu.

[@LJ458]

I definitely think this game is better for people who already play guitar pretty well but can never be bothered to practise, it's perfect for me haha

[@johnathonolavarria7432]

this is exactly me too. I have no interest in playing on stage or with a band anymore. this works for me.

[@bmxfreakxyo]

Does anyone notice the TERRIBLE technique?!!!

[@sparten1527]

Tyler Brown yeah I noticed the game won't replace traditional learning but it's a good place to start

[@bmxfreakxyo]

I respectfully disagree based on the fact that it's harder to break bad habits than it is to learn the right way from the beginning.

[@holtonhamilton1551]

+Tyler Brown I don't play guitar but I love rock.. And well you sir are wrong in some respects.. Every rockstar plays with a different technique and every teacher will teach something a different way. But you are correct if people are buying this game to be in a world class cover band. But compared to hendrix this guy sucks. Who the hell plays the guitar in front of then anymore, we moved to behind the back and head years ago. Shame on this guy, terrible techniques.

[@bmxfreakxyo]

+Holton Hamilton those musicians mastered the fundamentals before they broke the rules. Learning to play with poor technique will prevent you from reaching your maximum potential and it can even cause pain in your hands, arms, and back. You even said you don't play guitar so why do you feel the need to spew BS.

[@lastone032085]

Jimmy Hendrix respectfully disagrees with the idea that you can't break the rules from the start.

[@jacobcanter9826]

I would like it if Rocksmith had more acoustic songs, stuff like Neil Young, and some of the classic Beatles songs...I dunno. Some of this hard rock isn't what I really want to learn.

[@Ursus1985]

I couldn't agree more Jacob! I'm a fan of all types of music, so I will say that the tracklist isn't that bad overall, but it would be nice if they mixed up some country/acoustic/folk in there too. Hopefully Ubisoft pays attention to this channel, and can see that they need to do an acoustic DLC or something.

[@Texy88]

Jacob Canter Ubisoft are having real trouble getting permission for Beatles songs. If you take a look at this infographic and surrounding text you will get a good idea of just how difficult and time-consuming the licensing process can be, and you will also see the top 40 most-requested artists/bands (although admittedly since the uploading of that infographic there has been DLC released from some of the artists in question, including Bon Jovi, Queens of the Stone Age, Slayer, Rage Against the Machine and Jimi Hendrix while some of the others even at that point already had songs available, so presumably people wanted more songs from them). blog.ubi.com/rocksmith-2014-song-request/ Within it you will also find a link to a song-request tool that is on Facebook (although you do not have to have a Facebook account to use it, you will require a Ubisoft uPlay account).

[@ImmaBeast713]

I'm left handed and the Guitar that came with Rocksmith is a right handed guitar!!!

[@shitnutts3936]

Switch the fret board and strings its a simple prose's really

[@anthonyb.4732]

I've played the guitar for a year now and Rocksmith for 6 of those months, this game helps a lot but the problem is lack of songs that comes with just the game. And Ubisoft overcharges the DLC songs quite a bit. About 10$? For 3 songs. The other thing this game tries to tell you is. Dude if you learn all the songs and some custom songs. Good luck trying to learn on your own. Pedals, Effects, Amps. Anyway, the game is great with some bugs here and there, session mode is bullshit, low tuning is hard for the game to sort of understand (Drop C), and learning can be a pain haha. Buy the game. It worth it.

[@zeng58]

I've always wanted to play bass when I got it I gave up on it but when I started rocksmith I started to play a lot and improve this program really works

[@yupicorsic]

you can call yourself a guitar player now? you do not actually play "you really got me" correctly

[@Alison_Faith]

You call yourself a guitar player now? You made fun of another guitar player.

[@Alison_Faith]

A guitar player who only practiced 60 days.

[@yupicorsic]

Paintball Martyr Disproving and making fun of somebody is not the same thing. Practicing for 60 days does not count as being player, especialy if one can't play a tune correctrly. Of course he can call himself however he want, but in the world with more than one person everything is relative.

[@Alison_Faith]

+mmmaxaz well, I misunderstood your original comment, but still, maybe he can't play that song, maybe he is not very good at it, but he can play other things

[@yupicorsic]

Paintball Martyr I didn't say that he won't be able to play it eventually, but at this rate something says to me that until he'll not nail that song, other things probably won't come out better, not only because it is difficult to play with yo fingers, but also due wrong timing. Nothing is impossible, that song isn't that hard, if a person runs from one thing to another only because one have met some difficulties, I wonder how he was able to start playing and kept going in the first place.

[@erichsillett3914]

if i have to watch one more freaking person freaking play Walk this way, ZOMGBBQ.

[@ethanwalling6790]

They are all using a epiphone in everyone and they say they hav had it for years not buyin it

[@kgreggbruce1552]

Weird that a marketing department would choose people who own their guitars. Crazy. Almost like the company wants to sell more of their products or something? How stupid are they? Epiphone should have only chosen people with Fenders to sell their Epiphones. Genius.

[@EduardoRenz]

Really, Rocksmith help on guitar learning, and it's a lot fun, i recommend it. The only problem for newbies it's the "addictions", the wrong ways of playing guitar, like a "wrong" use of pick, or not apply alternate picking. Of course, don't exist the RIGHT way to play, but if don't apply some techniques correctly, make learning process more slow and hard. Anyway, the game is fantastic, and I'm proud of developers.

[@richjr1981]

I think this is a great way to learn songs to play, but when you're not plugged into the console, are the songs retained where you can just play it from memory? Seems like a crutch. A really cool crutch, but a crutch nonetheless

[@Eewokney]

I learn guitar by book. I can play the songs if i see the notebar in my book but not without it. same thing.. If you want to play the songs out of your head practise them more. what guitarsmith does have is when you are very good at the song the difficulty settings makes it so the notes dont showup on your console anymore. essentialy learning you to play out of your head.

[@jessecontreras5619]

The game has a master mode that gets rid of the on screen indicators after you've gotten really good at a song.

[@GHAddict112]

It's much easier to memorise songs on a real guitar because they follow chord structures and scales. On Guitar Hero the notes can be anything depending on who's charting them.

[@roblsy]

Guys the reason they all have epiphones is because epiphone was the main backer and funder for the game so yeah

[@Ostikylskapet]

Yeah if you could just not upload all the videos at the same time and not re upload them that'd be great.

[@Chilling4Shillings]

Ok my assessment is based on what I have seen on videos of people playing this game and they might be playing the notes, they don't seem to have any right hand technique, they appear to be typical tablature readers, Maybe my assesment is unjust but in my opinion guitars and video games don't mix, just my opinion, not to discount any benefit it may have for others

[@kadenbohm775]

Hey I'm subbed to this guy

[@Chilling4Shillings]

the game should obviously be improved to not only teach where the notes are on the neck, but for it to be effective there needs to be a feature to teach proper playing technique

[@chamagurka]

i know, 25 in uk, 24 in rest of the world. Shame on you ubi, SHAME!

[@TheJamesfeltner]

These all are really fake.

[@xlSKULLZlx]

I learned how to play the guitar just by looking up guitar tabs, self taught and I'm this guys age

[@tomahawkANDscopZ]

its released in america i think. it will be out 25th in uk i think

[@LJ458]

I definitely think this game is better for people who already play guitar pretty well but can never be bothered to practise, it's perfect for me haha

[@hertskoi]

any one know who to input custom tracks into rocksmith 2014

[@RockwoodJoe]

Glad to see the actual bundled guitar is finally shown.

[@christiancampbell5129]

they really need to make a game that teaches people to play real drums if they made a game that teaches people to play guitar they should be able to make a game that teaches people to play drums professionally like rocksmith

[@NotRealBrisa]

Green day x kid

[@kallitalonpoika]

Yeah, shit, isn't it?

[@RoboticP002]

bad luck brian became lucky

[@cobboldblue]

It does that already. Session mode, lessons and techniques has all that stuff. I'm getting this product for my 11 year old son as he loves his Xbox 360 and is currently working to grade 2 guitar at school. This will help him no end.

[@TutorialBox1]

LeikaTK his guitar is a Gibson les Paul junior

[@oibattery3198]

He's a wannabe,bullocks for him

[@dxman417]

It teaches you notes not on point not how to tune the guitar or anything just notes

[@Shamuscon]

Tuning shouldn't be too hard. After 60 days the sounds should be familiar to you. And there is also a mode where you can play the song without showing the notes. And besides, this is not to make you a complete expert, but just to learn the guitar.

[@tinypizza4278]

It shows you how to tune your guitar at the start of the game.

[@ENEMEH]

I miss the artifact at 00:48 Oh yeah and I miss Rocksmith2014 over here

[@mikehunt4444]

Listen at 3:05 his guitar isn't making a noise FAKE

[@Gonzbol]

you're deaf

[@IronOrePickaxe]

The audio is coming from the TV. It is legit.

[@christiancampbell5129]

6 or 7 strings on the guitar brian

[@RedCrow4ever]

The game came out only about a week or two ago.

[@69iambecomedeath89]

Probably.

[@davisj700]

Nyet.

[@exessivemite9478]

THE PICK HOLDING *UGH*

[@ENEMEH]

removed due to sound-compromising

[@TinyGamers]

My tip at day 60 turn around and stop looking at the Screen and just listen to the song ;)

[@Hughie1987]

theres a mode where you play the song with no notes at all

[@victorkmarshall]

It works really well

[@NTyran932]

Oh, ok thx for the info man

[@NTyran932]

Already posted ain't it ?

[@mkVS5134]

Игра недавно вышла,какие,нахуй,60 дней?

[@davisj700]

1:09 almost......

[@LeicaTK]

what kinda guitar do you have?

[@TimmehTRP]

He has a epiphone les pauls.

[@KuromiDarklord]

i bought rocksmith 2014 and a Jackson guitar 4 years ago and I still cant play any song. When the songs dificulty rise and start using more than one string at the time I immediately start failing. I cant play powercords or anything like that. This happens to me in every other artistic area, drawing, singing and writting even if i pay a lot for courses i never improve.

[@feliciastuddard6458]

Kuromi Darklord you shouldn't give up that easily.riff repeat a song until u can play it all the way through.

[@diemuckedeslebens]

I have played Rocksmith 2014 for 90 days, 1hr a day. Beside of having a lot of fun and some frustration, I haven't learned anything. Cannot play even one song till today. It's a fun software, well made, but don't expect to learn guitar with it. Just for fun, yes it's worth buying it!

[@greatrobby123]

i learnt so much from that game

[@diemuckedeslebens]

greatrobby123 If this is so, show us a video, playing a song without Rocksmith running.

[@greatrobby123]

what song?

[@diemuckedeslebens]

greatrobby123 Any is ok

[@jasonbrand1460]

diemuckedeslebens You have to be a troll. Either that, Or your muscle memory and general memory is complete shit.

[@jakemacham6913]

Rocksmith is just wrong, guitar is to be inspired by and aspired to. this is the fake way of doing anything in life. if there was no spark before hand then just keep it that way

[@anthonyb.4732]

I see it as if you're low on income and you are inspired do this it saves a lot of money for pedals, amps and other such things. It helped me out and I can see like this fucking guy shouldn't really be doing this if he wasn't inspired he was like "haha dude I can be famous for this watch." If you think I'm the same I got inspired by John 5 to play guitar and am bringing it more into my life than ever before!

[@kristapsvecvagars5049]

I would like to see inspiration aspire my pockets full of cash so that I could afford all the amps, pedals and whatnot for getting my guitar sound like I want to, cuz right about now I'm about a couple thousand dollars uninspired.

[@anthonyb.4732]

+Kristaps Vecvagars you would end up paying about 2 Grand with al the songs on this game. Steam (PC market.) calculated it.

[@anthonyb.4732]

+Kristaps Vecvagars Also the thing about being a Musician is that money. Is money. You save and you save till you get to a point of being good and having all that you need. You don't need a fucking pedal and amp to play guitar. Get a fucking acoustic and play that for years. I didn't get my guitar till a long Time of play and practice.

[@kristapsvecvagars5049]

Why on earth would I purchase all of them? In fact, I do not even like most of the dlc. Either way, if you just want to practice at home RS is much cheaper than getting a real setup, also space is not an issue.
