A constant request on the Rocksmith facebook page and everywhere else you can think of, is for Ubisoft to reveal the top requested songs/artists/genres. While I’m not sure what the point of that is because MUSIC LICENSING, people asked for it and today they delivered.
Along with this pretty infographic they also released a lengthy FAQ explaining pretty much everything they can tell you about Song Selection!
Nothing left to do but start…
No U2 on the list? Come on people.
I would love to see, Moody Blues, CCR, Prince and the Revolution, Meatloaf, of course Metallica.
436 Rocksmith songs available? Not on my console are they mostly PC only?
Rocksmith 1 = 52 exportable songs
Rocksmith 2014 = 66 Songs
RS1 DLC – 143 (minus the 3 Xmas DLCs you can’t get anymore)
RS2014 DLC – 172 songs
Total: 430 Songs
I request a way to request that does not require me to make a facebook account
You do not need a Facebook account to use that app. You only need a Uplay account. Try it.
How about a list of all the artists requested over all, that also have been contacted? 😛
I’m surprised that there is no Dire Staits, that guy plays like a Carvin now, only the desperate are endorsed by carvin.
Where’s mike? Hundreds if not thousands of song requests had to occur to make this thread possible and we don’t get to hear mike’s unique take on the situation. I’m bummed.
Mike requested people to stop requesting 403 times :laughing:
Really guys. How could I prevent someone from requesting something 403 times?
Looks like most requests are for bands from the Classic Rock genre. This begs the question: why is most DLC something else?
Looks like 19 of the highest requested bands are in Rocksmith, which begs the question why do people think they aren’t giving the community what it wants 😉
also I would love to know who the @sshat who requested the same song 403 times is, and what song it was!!! 😀
what, no alice donut? 😉
We have received requests for Alice Donut.
Yes, from me for one! Haha! You mean there’s more than me asking for it?
No skillet I mean monster and hero are great songs
And to think… I was losing hope in the world’s taste in music. It’s really cool how many of these they already have up, and it would be great to see them double dip from a couple. The lack of any Clapton really surprises me though, I would’ve thought that Layla, Sunshine, and Crossroads would be some of the highest requested songs. In fact, I don’t think I’ve requested them yet, off to the app I go!
Now they should tell those which will never be on Rocksmith,like GnR and Pink Floyd 🙁
I agree – so people won’t waste their time on requests that are completely futile. That would also include Led Zeppelin and Beatles. Concentrate on bands/songs that actually have a chance.
I would liked to have seen the list ranked by # of requests as opposed to alphabetically.
You actually think people will ever stop requesting The Beatles, Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd? 🙄
I wish the developers would tell us who we will NEVER see in rocksmith. I want closure, as long as there is a snowball’s chance for tool and the beatles, It will forever consume my thoughts.
The less specific they are the better chances of the channels remaining open for continued dialog
Also: Led Zeppelin, Eagles, Pink Floyd, Metallica, The Beatles, GnR, etc
I’m all for more blues guitar. I would pay for SRV, Pink Floyd, more Clapton, etc. I do love the metal but my hands fail me therefore I won’t request it.
I very much appreciate the variety and I have bought most of the packs. THANK YOU ROCKSMITH.
I’m surprised there aren’t much instrumental artist up there like Eric Johnson, Steve vai, satriani etc but lots of metal which is cool
I think that it has more to do with a mainstream audience. Instrumental artist just aren’t hugely popular. The fact that they had one Satch song on 2014 gave me hope that we’d get more instrumental guitarist included. Or at the very least more Satch, and maybe Vai.
funwithsongrequests time!
the Sultans of swing belive that Fairies wear boots and give a Whole lotta love and Money but No one knows if the Master of puppets was Foolin’ you to Shout at the devil in the Purple haze so Mr.crowley can give yo a Welcome to the jungle
awesome! I hope they come all the top 40
403 times wow!
We already have half of the 40 artists so that means we have arrived. If we see another 10 or more from that list I’ll be surprised
Man, where’s my Styx and B.T.O.?
Yes please to almost all of those… Some melodic Gary Moore blues would be tasty, but wailing on some Gilmour lead would be my idea of perfection!
Dire Straits, Def Leppard = awesome choices 😀
Ok, now everyone go request some Extreme and Carcass tunes.
I know I did! Fantastic guitar in both.
Disappointed there’s no Kings of Leon or Arctic Monkeys on the list.
You can change that. 🙂
Don’t let him know that 😛
i only want about 4 of those
All those are great choices. Good job everyone. You know what else is great? No White Stripes on the list.
I’m surprised Dire Straits, Bullet For My Valentine, Nirvana, Queens of the Stone Age, Scorpions and Stevie Ray Vaughn are so hard to acquire.
I agree, especially on Nirvana. My assumption is that Courtney Love would license the entire catalog for a toilet paper commercial if someone waved enough money at her… or maybe even a couple packs of smokes.
