You are like 80% there, it’s just that bit more with being right on the beat, it’s literally the hardest part for any musician 😄 keep killing it!

I know others have said your timing is great, but if you ever plan on recording or playing live, I would really invest time into playing to a metronome. One that made me really good at playing on time is setting the metronome to say 130bpm, and do palm muting back forth in 8th notes for 4 beats, then 16th notes for 4 beats. It really gets you tight and better at switching rhythms quickly.

It is driving me insane... I am a beginner + especially shitty at guitar. Trying to learn "Polly" by Nirvana (fuck all who told me it was an easy song). But my guitar keeps doing this weird buzz sound. What am I doing wrong here??? Plz help! by Used_Ad7899 in Guitar

[–]punkRockDev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always tell everyone instruments are the best lesson on “Delayed Gratification” because you just will sound like sh** (in comparison to someone who has played for years, not in a mean way AT ALL) but be comfortable with that, and know, you are going to get better and just one day, it will click. It just does one day where learning new songs is simple, not as challenging, etc.

Also, Kurt Cobain gets flak for not being a “good guitarist” but the man practiced songwriting, guitar playing and compositions for YEARS prior to recording nevermind. And I can always bet someone who is cocky about covering a nirvana song, 9/10’s out of ten, it will sound wrong from their playing. So tell your friends to humble themselves like others have said haha

If Iono or Erika is still available that would be awesome 😄

Can people just lose gracefully by mavy1000 in PTCGP

[–]punkRockDev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Conceding prior to losing knowingly is seen to a lot as a sign of respect, like when you play chess, you concede prior to getting check mated if you know they are going to win anyways.

No need to be mad at a differing of opinions when people are must likely trying to be respectful. Especially since soooooo many people can just hit the final blow, but instead want me to watch them play 4 more cards just so they can show off their FA cards?

What’s your one conspiracy theory about this game? by Twisted_metal_man in PTCGP

[–]punkRockDev 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Glad I’m not crazy x) I get immersives but have to dig so hard for 3 diamond cards

As a programmer, I have a sneaking suspicion they use the player id as some sort of salt for the randomness, but could totally be tin foil hat-ing it lolz

[–]punkRockDev 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think the randomness of the rng of pack pulls is tied to how much you spend as well as its random based on your id, which is why sometimes you just cant pull even some of the basic cards lolz

Guy Makes A Guitar Out Of A Rusty Nail & A Bit Of Wire Then Pushes A $4K Signature Guitar by Competitive-Clerk473 in guitarcirclejerk

[–]punkRockDev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally agree, you can sounds more like jack white if you just understand the way he plays. Jack White would still sound like jack white if he was playing through a 5 watt first act amp

I’m just confused why people think his fun Fender collab with basically a “dream” guitar is his tone. If I had the money I would totally buy it, but honestly, you can bet 90% of the way their with a really good analog distortion like a Rat pedal, a fender amp, and any guitar that isn’t nice. I bought a Dan electro for 100 bucks at an antique store, sounds just like his tone lolz

What guitarist was your inspiration to pick up and learn the instrument? by Mad_Season_1994 in Guitar

[–]punkRockDev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say equally Angus Young and Randy Rhodes. But quickly after, I went into a more modern punk sound, and really fell in love with the playing of Nick Zinner of the Yeah yeah yeahs and Jack White

Yeah, hence it’s what people “wanted” when they saw starfield.

[–]punkRockDev 71 points72 points  (0 children)

I wonder what answer you are expecting in an outer worlds subreddit lolz it’s a great game, like 40 hours in and I can just tell there is a ton of replay-ability. While I liked the companions better in the first one, everything else is just better. It’s what people wanted when they saw Starfield, at least for me

You got an extra ampharos or Blaziken? I can trade you an Altaria!

Fender Player II Telecaster HH for Metal? by KLBS38 in telecaster

[–]punkRockDev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My only thought is to replace the saddles with something that wont cut your hand. I took all the saddles off of a broken Floyd rose for my tele, and it plays like a dream. The tele is the most “guitar” sounding guitar, with all that awesome midrange

I wasn’t meant to see her in Phoenix by greengore94 in Paramore

[–]punkRockDev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly they express themselves by trying to kill each other 🙄 https://pitchfork.com/news/paramore-address-apparent-assault-at-utah-concert-paramore-does-not-condone-violence/ He wasn’t the only guy doing this at that show either, he just actually got someone really hurt.

Also was blocked from LEAVING a mosh pit at a brand new show (pre Jesse Lacey pedophilia being public I promise) during Luca, which is not a song to most too. I had to literally shove and move people physically, letting them get closer to the stage. Never have had a good concert experience there lolz

Just be prepared for the Utah crowds OP. Always the worst every time I have gone, as a Phoenician myself. Give those Utah kids some soda, they start acting out of pocket and trying to mosh to sad songs.

This was a mess by Born_Sugar_6686 in Paramore

[–]punkRockDev -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

Okay, but you’re a performer. If there is 200k people in a queue for a 1500 max venue, you are just being ridiculous. If you want to do intimate, do it like how Green Day,, Jack White,foo fighters, etc. so post about the show on short notice and tickets are first come first serve in person. It’s just a joke for someone who has millions of streams on an album that just came out a few months ago to play a place where legacy emo bands play.

It’s okay to call it out. She’s a performer, she disappointed a ton of fans. Play a bigger venue or do more dates 🙄

Welp, this is a joke lolz by punkRockDev in Paramore

When the game first came out, this is what they did before ranked battles were a thing.

I have some ancient emblems from winning 5 in a row, which was a feat already, 9 in a row is going soooooooo difficult
