guys, my company's having a guitar hero tournament on friday, and i've played a lot of guitar hero, but never tried the head-to-head mode. how does it work? do you win by scoring more points? if so, would someone playing on Medium have an advantage over someone playing on Easy? Thanks.
yes
its done on accuracy so that a person playing on expert really stands no chance of beating someone playing easy unless they are gonna be gold starring it. Only way to play an even tournament is playing on even difficulty (pro face off all the way)
guitar hero is gay!
i have never played guitar hero. am i missing out?
Everyone should at least try it once. It's alot of fun.
And in response to the OP..... in head-to-head mode, you basically trade off parts of the song. For instance, your opponent will play a few measures, and then you take a few, and it goes back and forth till the end of the song. And there is a little needle-guage in the middle of the screen that points to whoever is in the lead. And yes, it's only fair if you are both at the same difficulty level. You don't get some kind of bonus points for being on Expert. So if you are on expert and your opponent is on easy, you'll probably get waxed unless you are incredible.
... you are all wrong. In expert you have about 10 times the amount of notes as you do on easy - thus 10 times the chances to score points. The only advantage of being on easy is that it's easier to get and keep the 4x multiplier. If you're relatively good and the other people are playing on easy, do medium or hard and they don't stand a chance.
If the tournament is being scored solely on the percentage of notes you hit correctly instead of your total point score (which would be lame) then you can disregard everything I just said.
Except that if they are playing guitar hero II the scoring will be equal in easy, medium, hard, or expert, it was a problem they had with the original game when they converted to the new head-to-head mode but it is worked out so actually if someone is more accurate playing easy against someone playing hard that is less accurate, with a lower note streak but more notes hit, they still lose
