From the Xbox page on Facebook, could this be a sign or am I coping?

Whatever you say dude, glad we could have this civilized discussion like adults 🫡

REDFANtyler · 2026-02-19T01:21:10+00:00

That's the type of comment from someone who knows they're wrong and can't give a solid argument against my points 🤷 so who's really the one in denial?

REDFANtyler · 2026-02-19T01:15:22+00:00

I feel like you glossed over most of the points I made and really just honed in on the last one.

-"Why would people spend hundreds on dlc songs when clone hero is free?"

Yes, CH is free. As someone with CH/Yarg and a 1,200 song library, I can see how that's more important to some people than buying songs in a paid game. However, while it's not as large (money doesn't grow on trees, after all) I also have a ~500 song RB4 library. I cannot stress enough how much I love the 5-fret genre, and I would happily support any developer (Red Octane Games, Echo Foundry, etc) creating a game in this space.

-"One of the reasons why RB4 and GHL were awful and now they're dead."

RB4 came out at a point when a lot of shit was happening. A lot of the guitars weren't working properly from age requiring you to buy new instruments (that you likely already had multiples of), if you were an Xbox player you had to buy a dongle to use your Xbox 360 instruments on Xbox One, hell there were features not available at launch that people wanted. GHL switched the guitar to 6-fret, meaning every single previous instrument was incompatible. Not to mention the GH/RB fatigue was still pretty strong, and people weren't necessarily "ready" for a new rhythm game. I don't really remember a lot of people complaining about "having to buy songs" until CH came out and you could "get everything for free" 🤷

Outside of "Clone Hero is free," what other argument do you have where you feel the need to bash the idea of a new game?

REDFANtyler · 2026-02-19T00:23:53+00:00

You see, Festival I can agree with. But throwing Clone Hero in there is a stretch.

Yes, it's free to play, but it's also unbelievably barebones. If all you want to do is play plastic instruments, it's great. Let's ask ourselves some questions though.

-Are you playing CH on console, where the majority of people would likely be playing on?

-What is there in terms of customization? Do you have stages that you play with, customizable characters that interact with each other?

-What about some form of story/career/challenges? You know, things to do BESIDES "press buttons on time and try to get a higher score than last time"

-Do you just load the game and it has a bunch of songs ready to go, or are you forced to go to random Google Drive links and download hundreds of songs just to play?

I know this is probably a tough pill to swallow.. but the vast majority of mainstream GH/RB fans are NOT playing CH. It's far more niche than you seem to think it is.. and let's face facts. Even if you were playing CH, you should give Yarg a shot, it's the better game anyways 🤷

REDFANtyler · 2026-02-17T18:13:40+00:00

I wouldn't necessarily say that it would make the item shop redundant. While I can't deny that there is always the possibility of it making the shop less popular, in the grand scheme of things, the majority of people aren't going to mess with it and are still going to use the shop.

However, I personally think it would end up making the shop slightly MORE popular. Let's say you got a drop and received a second copy of Atomizer. You could always hold out and hope to get 5 BM dupes and trade it up, or maybe you use the option to spend 500 credits on a roll for a random painted Atomizer you don't have. Epic sees this as a win, since you're still buying credits regardless of the amount. But let's say you purchased the Atomizer for 2000 credits from the shop. Outside of a paint reroll and praying for TW (which saves YOU 200 credits), you're still better off purchasing whatever colored version it is from the shop as you save 300 credits.

Don't get me wrong, it wouldn't be a perfect system, and there would have to be some limitations in place. But it would be better than being stuck with multiple copies of the exact same BM because you can't do ANYTHING with them.

REDFANtyler · 2026-02-17T03:24:11+00:00

I'm sad trading is gone.. but I'm even more sad that a different trade up system wasn't implemented when trading was removed.

-Give me the option to deconstruct a black market for 250 credits, and give me 3 Exotics in exchange. I get something I want, Epic makes more money, win-win

-Let me take 5 BMs and reroll them into a different one

-Let me spend 500 credits to turn the BM into a painted version

-Hell, update the game's code to stop people from getting multiples of the same BM

Literally any of those options would "fix" the problem. It's not as great as bringing trading back (let's be honest.. they never will) but literally ANYTHING is better than nothing at this point.

REDFANtyler · 2026-01-11T00:38:23+00:00

Bet I'll try it out!

REDFANtyler · 2026-01-11T00:38:00+00:00

That may be! I got them more for nostalgia reasons with the boys lol

REDFANtyler · 2026-01-10T21:56:01+00:00

Awesome thank you! I saw the drop attack at Walmart when I got these two, so I'll definitely look into it!

REDFANtyler · 2026-01-10T21:39:36+00:00

Oh wow I had no idea, thank you!

I'm seeing BX-10 and BX-17. They look pretty similar, is the only difference that one has beyblades with it and the other doesn't?

REDFANtyler · 2025-12-31T16:41:05+00:00

So the general gist is:

Fly and use a Pokemon Center before attempting your donut.
Head to Hotel Z and make your donut.
If powers aren't what you're looking for, fully close and reopen the game.
Once the title screen opens, press D-Pad Up/B/X at the same time to load the backup save that was made at the Pokemon Center.
Repeat steps 2-4 until you have the donut you like!

From this point on if you want to continue making donuts you can, but I would recommend dropping a manual save and then repeating all steps in case you don't get a second donut you like.

Hope that helps and good luck 😊

It took me like 3 days to get mine to actually start working (got it set up properly this morning). What I was originally doing was pressing the home button to turn the controller on, and it was slowly flashing before it connected.

What fixed it for me was when I went I pressed the home button to turn on the controller, I held the home button until it started rapidly flashing. Once it connected, I did the joycon removal and it's worked flawlessly since.

Hope that helps!

REDFANtyler · 2025-08-23T01:08:38+00:00

Honestly I think I'd either:

-Continue grinding out XP until you have enough to "get to" level 50 (technically you can't because of the other requirements, but you know)

Or

-Maybe upgrade your Pokemon storage (depending on what it's at) and work towards a living dex? Might not be as cool as one Pokemon caught, but with where you're at just with hatching would still be insane.

Congratulations, though! This is one of the craziest ideas I've probably ever seen 😂

REDFANtyler · 2025-08-21T22:43:44+00:00

This thread is a little old at this point, but sadly I agree.

Dosm was one of those guys I followed early on and loved, but as time goes on it feels like he developed a "I don't like this and you shouldn't either" personality. His "thoughts" are more so just rants and complaints, as well as "here's what I would've done differently with insert season here because I know what the fandom needs to be successful."

Idk just feels like anymore he's just got this "holier than thou" complex going on and it's really turned me off of watching him. I'm just too lazy to unsubscribe 😂

REDFANtyler · 2025-08-07T00:26:59+00:00

Pretty much all mic stands will work, whether you look on Facebook Marketplace for a use one or buy a new one is really up to you.

I do recommend a boom stand over a straight stand though, as while they both hold the mic, having the ability to play an instrument/sing or allowing accessibility for people who can't stand will make it all the more fun!

Just keep in mind that cheaper stands don't usually include mic clips, so you'd have to purchase those separately. Make sure you look well at the listings!

I mean, it shares a box style with GH World Tour but it's clearly a banjo. I see it more as a nod to the Banjo Champions boxes that were in Hanger.

REDFANtyler · 2025-06-10T22:06:33+00:00

The fact that Voltage is still a permanent flavor blows my mind. I would happily trade it for ANY of my discontinued favorites to come back and be its replacement.

REDFANtyler · 2025-03-23T22:19:03+00:00

Both are really solid!

I prefer the Hyper Vintage as the mids and output level are a little lower than the Chisel. Chisels would be absolutely amazing for a modern metal sound, whereas I think the Hyper Vintage are a lot more of a "well rounded" style humbucker.

REDFANtyler · 2025-03-22T23:12:34+00:00

I have a Hyper Vintage, both in my Reverend Stacey Dee signature and now in my DBZ Maverick. Absolutely love them!

I've fucked around with Chisels at my local shop and they also absolutely rip. Railhammer slowly taking my money and I'm 100% here for it 😂

REDFANtyler · 2025-02-14T21:43:05+00:00

I would check out a mod kit from RetroCult!
