can I get a HAROO?

[@P-nk-m-na]

this is such a haroo moment

[@adammasonic]

certified haroo classic

[@sulrich384]

this is a big haroo moment

[@happypickle575]

HAROOO!

[@arceus413]

top 10 haroo

[@ThorHanson2005]

Alec: *completes song after missing a note or two* Game: YOU ROCK!!! Alec: No the fuck I don’t.

[@Scorbunny_GMD]

it do be like that tho

[@Calamitous]

I appreciate how genuinely upset you look through this

[@edensarnelli9373]

Bro. That sounds sooo evil but I understand what you mean.

[@g.u.959]

More like dropkick the charter through the window, good god this looks like absolute misery Proud of you for pushing through this man, you are unstoppable as always

[@Magnavie]

whoever the hell charted this and thought it was okay owes you 5 dollars

[@frostyminiyeets8626]

5 Whole-roo dollars

[@purplegill10]

Enby gang

[@Wiild_The_Fiire]

come on man at 15:03 when you hit the last streak and the clapping started and the star power hit i got legit goosebumps

[@SkylluszYn]

Really is such a triumphant outro in this context, got me fired up too.

[@aaronkerper4004]

THIS is what I think of every time we make fun of these OG charts. Actually insane.

[@reach17-CH]

I liked the part where you said "It's harooin' time" and then you haroo'd all over those notes

[@yeetboi1938]

🗿

[@orinami3310]

"that one ended on a downstrum" *church bell tolls*

[@superattackgamer]

I swear so many of the DLC songs in GH3 feel like they're not tempo mapped at all with how messy the charts look.

[@edyoung2621]

The fact that the dropkick Murphys version of the ants go marching in was this hard is extremely funny to me

[@sulrich384]

SOOOOOO happy you put out another gh3dlc video, hope to see more soon!

[@acai28]

probably gonna put out another this week!

[@Azodrak]

Those streams were legendary, the console grind was amazing

[@frostyminiyeets8626]

You know there's a charting problem when Acai struggles to daroo it

[@ChaoticPsychoOLD]

[@mynamesleeewis]

That 27 to 67 FC jump is crazy

[@enoughthatshoppingads6069]

he played another different song after been FC until another attempt

[@GoAndrewKuiken]

the FCs always come at a time when you don’t think much about it. congrats on this one Alec. AND SHOUTOUT TO BOOTYCLAPS FOR JESUS. massive hype.

[@Ichorizor]

The moment chat got you laughing with the Huh?roo I knew it was going to work. Sometimes it takes a bit of laughter to beat the hardest challenges. Keep it up Acai!

[@DerpyTheShreddingProto]

after some quick calculations, i found out that the speed of “hard rain” is… *20.4 notes per second* neversoft must have had some pretty high standards… edit: it may actually be 19.4 because it’s a slightly different tempo from the rest of the song

[@cosmicjenny4508]

Fun fact, I Believe In A Thing Call Love in Guitar Hero On Tour: Decades has 17+NPS strumming at the end of the solo. On DS!!

[@angelamclean2639]

I love your content and you are the reason why I got back into guitar hero.

[@nicco77rams]

i really do love vids like this. showing progression of a super wack ass song, theory crafting methods and counting strums, the attempts and runs, and finally the fc. the gh3 customs vid was like this an i love to see more. amazing vid alec. much love

[@SeanSMST]

Alec, I'm glad to see someone at your skill level is still mortal like the rest of us. God bless.

[@napstadan-ihateleagueofleg6281]

7:45 10 year old me trying to activate star power

[@theharvardyard2356]

Honestly though, how hard is it to actually slow the song down and actually listen to it before charting the notes? WTF neversoft?

[@Nettacki]

They were too busy making GH Aerosmith to properly QA the dlc stuff lul

[@cosmicjenny4508]

Most of the GH3 DLC charts are scuffed, they probably had a separate team who had to quickly chart them all for release while everyone else worked on GH Aerosmith.

[@goldenwolf8081]

@@cosmicjenny4508makes sense cause the normal and bonus song charts imo are great but these on the dlc some are badly made and definitely feels rushed I’ve never played the dlc on gh3 and I fully feel the pain acai’s having

[@ChanceOfOne344254]

It seems that for parts like calm/hard rain they charted the fret changes precisely based on the audio instead of making it playable. The strumming speed is faster than the original but may have been done due to lack of time, who knows.

[@theharvardyard2356]

@@ChanceOfOne344254 the thing is I feel like it doesn't take more time to chart 8 notes instead of like 15. All it takes is some ears and a basic concept of rhythm.

[@titans77]

Man's hit the most unironic HAROO you'll ever hear after he got that fc lmaoooo

[@fearjunkie]

15:28 When someone asks who my fave P5 girl is but I'm too drunk to pronounce it properly

[@ffibonacci]

God, I get nostalgia & rage seeing this chart again after over a decade lmao. Nice job powering through the pain, bro

[@clowdyglasses]

13:34 singer walks off stage lmao

[@lemonxreaperGH]

You know, I genuinely wonder if the "Check This" section is supposed to be a jokey remark or if its actually just a sign that this was an unpolished draft chart that got shipped because that actually adds up 🤔

[@benmeyer918]

Im so happy you made a vid for this grind, haroo haroo!

[@Mati12Osorio]

Yo, never saw this DLC chart. Also SP phrases on the fuckery strumming is a total madness! Bet if it was on a Facelift Pack it would be better charted. Happy for you what you finally grinded it! 😁😁

[@suchakreelaokom9494]

11:00 Sanity has left the chat

[@mitsuo0221]

idk why but watching those failed attempts also makes my blood boil too, ITS SO HARD TO GET THAT

[@Hasibo95]

YOOOO finally! Dope ass fc. Also seeing how you struggle on so a good amount of older gh songs, kinda makes it impressive that these Songs got fced a whileeee ago by people like ghp etc etc. Cool to see it

[@dbeast03]

Y'know, I think we take GH3's on disk charts for granted sometimes. Like, they're not perfect by any means, but compared to the dlc charts up to at least GH3, charts like Take This Life with just a couple strange things out of place aren't even worth complaining about when the devs just decided to eyeball a song like this and go "eh, good enough".

[@chaseknight4665]

This was genuinely like 15 minutes of genuine suffering and pain followed by 1 minute of pure elation.

[@Coheed275]

The confusion mixed with pain after every miss. Congrats on the run!

[@anistrashcan8536]

When I was watching this video I sneezed at the “haroo” part lol

[@willfultrain6779]

Man that string of notes is insane I don't know how you strum so fast.

[@sapphireaurora9634]

Man I love this song. I grew up with this blaring through the entire hour when I was a kid

[@Waldens002]

Oh man I remember watching this during the livestream, it looked so painful

[@ermmwhatdatuna]

loved watching these streams im so glad you uploaded this!!

[@acai28]

Thanks! I’ll have more this week

[@Larv6464]

HAROOOOOO!! We did it!! Congratulations! 🎉

[@supermarble94]

I think the only way I could get that yellow streak even remotely consistent was to fret the yellow hopo and strum on the same frame, ending on a downstrum. Insane. What an accomplishment.

[@sykilik101]

-gets to attempt 3- I genuinely haven't seen Alec that *that* visibly angry at a choke in a long while. What a grind, but what an FC!

[@flcl4evr]

Glad to see I'm not the only one who's been aggravated by this chart for a decade plus.

[@JonsCopyright]

HAROO!!! Been waiting for this for a hot minute

[@aWiseMoose]

Truly one of the worst official charts of all time imo

[@SecretWalrus99]

this man suffers for our enjoyment and i say haroo to you!!

[@vodkato.]

at 12:47 we can clearly see the player hitting a note at the right time, the game ignoring the input but then going back and counting it lmao also, HUHROO

[@vDeadbolt]

It's intentional. GH3's hit window is really lenient

[@geo-fry6372]

I’m not very good at the guitar hero games, but I’ve improved quite a lot over the last year. I’m to the point where I’m starting to get some semi-impressive fc’s on clone hero. Right now I’m working on every song from The Final Experiment by Ayreon; I’ll probably be working on The Awareness and Eyes of Time tomorrow. All this is to say, when I will start feeling miserable grinding those solos, I can thank God I’m not playing this shit. That chart looks absolutely miserable. Who thought this was ok. HAROO

[@Hopecaster]

I completely forgot about this song omfg I forgot just how bad this chart actually is I wish I caught that stream, you playin through the main games like this is what got me to finally get back on Rock Band/Guitar Hero again

[@benjaminA.stantonpun]

The Dropkick Murphys DLC was my favorite GH3 set of songs ever. They were so darn fun. 👍😉

[@user-xn7ty8tu3n]

I completely forgot about this FC. HUHroo my good man.

[@Sjostrom2001]

9:02 i like how he is going to play Nine Lives but continues to play Johnny lol >D

[@grayhefe5989]

I went to a Dropkick Murphys concert a couple months ago, there were zero HAROO's

[@anistrashcan8536]

What on earth- the audio doesn’t even pick that fast in the outro why would they chart it like this

[@MKNerdMusic]

Did GH3 have any good DLC charts? Like, how did any of these charts get past QA? 😭

[@technoguyx]

no need to worry about QA when there's no QA!! :)

[@legonick357]

All qa probably on aerosmith lol

[@Toshineko]

''I'm happy to see this song FC'd, huroo, huroo. I'm happy to see this song FC'd, huroo, huroo. You hit those notes, they throw you off, but they will never slew ya... Johnny I hardly knew ya!''

[@Larathen]

A good way to think which string of strumming will end either down or up is that even number of notes end on the opposite stroke and odd numbers end on the same stroke. so down on a 5 note ends down but down on a 6 note ends up!

[@chucktweegee]

You could say this grind was the 'Meanest of Times'?

[@airpug]

Man went Goblin Mode at the end. HAROOOOO!!

[@TheSchonba5698]

I remember I had that Dropkicks song when I played Guitar Hero 3 but I haven't played that game in years now, looks like a rough time lol

[@bltelysian]

i think he knows johnny quite well now

[@smashbounduk3241]

The slow Haroos in practice made me laugh so much 😂

[@unicornkiss]

this is a true HAROO moment, LETS GOOOO!

[@Dumb_mang0]

bro almost entered his joker arc

[@Dumb_mang0]

man, i can't believe the 'real' Acai responded to my comment. That is very coo and epic from him /s

[@Darkshock25]

That’s how I feel when I try to 5-star “Six” on Expert Guitar on Rock Band 2 on Xbox 360 console itself and MY HANDS WERE KILLING ME trying to do that after 14 tries for an OMB Customs Setlist. That’s when I was like “Fuck it, I quit” and just decided to record the run on Hard Guitar because I knew my hands will die attempting it and I was already mad enough to quit trying it again on that game. 😒😠

[@xXBeefyDjXx]

That absolutely fucking sucks. GG for keeping at it though! It's not so much the complicated ones sometimes, but more so the rate of strumming vs GH3's engine lmao

[@ps3fan4005]

At the kart where your Xbox died at the end of that sequence I got a ps5 ad. I didn’t realize how far I was into the video and thought you raged and snuck a random ps5 ad in and called it a day

[@chrisbanos1112]

Bro the song went like nope kid you have more note coming in your way homie

[@HaloMillennium]

God, the overcharting hurts to see looking back at this song. I still loved playing it, but I can't imagine trying to FC it now lmao

[@stephgh1flamyphantom230]

this one seriously pissed me off sooooo hard. such terrible charting. you can FEEL those nerves after the slowdown. hope you do footage breakdown of dualing banjos cause thats another one that just sucked lol.

[@jeffyanderpson3397]

They jump cut from "Def Leppard pack let's go" just for it to go back to HAROO

[@verbbudders904]

I actually love playing this stupid-ass chart lmao. I was always significantly better at strumming than fretting, so learning to FC this garbage was fun as hell

[@SaberDrummer]

Hey thanks for uploading this Alec, I needed something to watch while shitting ❤❤❤

[@RAGNAR-3-3]

Acai is GOATed

[@muff1n1634]

bro went crazy making chapters for this video

[@grahahaham]

10:46 "balls in my face" and then the game crashes lmfaooooo

[@beechilada]

13:53 not the singer trying to jump off the stage after having to sing the same song multiple times

[@Destroyah5000]

The charter made this in a way that makes me think he was drunk, or perhaps got drunk whilst hearing this very much drinking song.

[@Animator_Alex]

This is a certified haroo moment

[@IVIALL0Y]

I'm glad I didn't know about this song back then.

[@TheDragonsPit]

I feel like a masochist designed GH3 DLC charts. And then dipped it in a air fryer just to be sure.

[@Dracula_sb]

Damn, that chart is turbo mega cancer lol. "Balls in my face" *Fatal crash* Good stuff brother Brown Man.

[@insederec]

takes an actual sadist to make mandolin tremolo picking that accurate in a chart

[@MichaelMcCloud29]

I remember first playing it GH3PC because I missed the FoMO DLC back in the day and HATED the strumming sections and I couldn’t figure out why. Fast strumming is always a nice challenge but never liked trying it on this song. Now I know why, because it’s just charted like trash. Glad you got it out of the way and makes me feel less stupid when you also struggled with it

[@ripperplaysclon152]

Holy crap, Alec. You fucking did it.

[@thequantumknight7263]

Johnny, I hardly knew ya and I'd like to keep it that way.

[@carenavi06]

2:09 look at Acai's face xD thats fricking synchronous xD

[@rexx3835]

So glad written music and even rocksmith have segments that just say, "tremolo for this long" because of stuff like this.

[@renegadesofanarchy289]

Rock Band has trill lanes but I can’t remember if it also has tremolo lanes, probably not tbh.

[@criseist9786]

Such a good song though ngl, been a fan of them for forever

[@themetalcatacombs3790]

This would be unbeatable in GH2.

[@Zayfae]

that boy did an ANALYSIS 😭😭

[@AyyItsMidnite]

Ohhh my god the second hand pain just from watching the process behind the FC was palpable. Shit hurts. What a gross chart.

[@ALWTunes]

Almost reached Treeman levels of rage on this one. Haha.

[@Toshineko]

I can't wait to see Acai FC the DragonForce DLCs.

[@ElysaraCh]

You know, I actually never noticed until today that Hard Rain strumming keeps going almost comically long after the audio stops

[@fyremage3075]

This man will be the FIRST to complete a true max% run of the entire GH franchise

[@brawlerbaiken]

“Balls in my face” *fatal crash-*

[@Adamizkool3399]

gotta love dropkick murphys lol
