Should you want to play more songs than you are rewarded, you can use your earned in-game currency to purchase additional plays. As you level up in “status,” you are rewarded with in-game currency and song plays. Meant to replace traditional DLC, this mode allows you to select channels and play along, or play what you want to play using the on-demand song plays.Įarning song plays is as simple as playing along with the streaming channels.
#GUITAR HERO LIVE BAND OFFLINE#
The game delivers more than 40 songs in its offline Live mode, and hundreds of songs in TV mode at launch with the promise of free additions in the future. Perhaps that’s why when I heard that when Guitar Hero Live would feature microtransactions in its GHTV mode, I wasn’t particularly worried. Even as a money-deprived college student, I didn’t hesitate to spend $2 if it meant providing my friends and me with a more enjoyable experience. I’ve wowed my coworkers with rundowns of how much money I’ve spent on games, instruments, and downloadable content between both of the series. Over the past decade, I’ve been a massive fan of the Guitar Hero and Rock Band franchises.
Unfortunately, the currencies in GHTV are too convoluted for their own good and too often get in the way of allowing the player to just enjoy the otherwise solid gameplay of Guitar Hero Live.
I was originally excited at the prospect of being forced to play songs I was unfamiliar with in order to play songs I wanted to play. With Guitar Hero Live’s TV mode, FreeStyle Games and Activision implemented a system that requires you to earn on-demand song plays by playing on streaming channels. Music discovery is one of the main reasons I enjoy Guitar Hero and Rock Band.
