Won't You Come Out to Play?

Play Dear Prudence on Expert Guitar, playing all hammer-ons and pull-offs without strumming.

How to unlock the Won't You Come Out to Play? achievement in The Beatles Rock Band - Definitive Guide

"Dear Prudence" is the easier HOPO achievement and must be played on Expert Guitar (not bass) and if you can't play guitar on expert, don't bother with it. For the HOPO achievements, you need to hit EVERY hammer-on and pull-off without strumming them. You -CAN- miss regular notes as long as they're not the hammer-ons and pull-offs. Nothing really too tricky gets thrown at you here. Just keep your mind on restraining your spastic strumming hand when those little notes pop up.

I've heard that "no fail" mode does not disable achievements on this game.

My question is, can you do this achievement on tug-of-war and then only have to play half the song? On other versions of Rock Band you can.

In addition to skipping chords, you can do what I did:
I wasn't very consistent in hitting the green fret during the first half of the song, so I used a rubber band to anchor the green fret. When you play the parts that go RED-Orange-Green-YELLOW-Red (and others like that), you can skip the green as the rubber band does for you. When you get to the long notes you can pause and remove the rubber band, then just combo the song to the end. You could pause before the outro and put the rubber band on again as well if you need to.

For someone like myself I would like to know what this means: "Play Dear Prudence on Expert Guitar, playing all hammer-ons and pull-offs without strumming"

Is it the thing beside the guitar? I just googled it and think I know now. I just got gold star but no achievement because I did not understand what to do.

@Mattias: there are two shapes for the notes. The big ones have to be strummed. The little ones can normally be strummed or tapped. For this achievement you have to just tap the color button. For the tap to work, you have to have hit the note before it correctly, either a correct tap or strum.

This is more of an addition to the above guide; You can choose to miss all of the chords in between the Hammers/Pulls to help make it easier. The chords will force you to keep repositioning your hand, but if you ignore them, it made it 100 times easier for me as you can prep your fingers in advance. And before you ask; you'll come nowhere close to failing for missing the chord notes.

To answer my own question: Unfortunately NO. You cannot get credit for any song based achievement by playing the song on tug-of-war (like you can on RB 1 and 2 as well as the track pack 2, country, metal and ac/dc packs).

You CAN get credit for playing the song on no fail. I got the gold star achievements with the songs on "no fail". (Of course if your meter hits red you aren't going to gold star, but no fail was indeed turned on).

just to add on the other solution, the timing for the repeated chords (after?) the second chorus *not sure on the exact location, but anyways it proved a bit tricky so if you're having trouble just play the first two sets of chords and skip the RYO chord and have your hand ready for a red pulling off green

I didn't notice anything tricky like that. The worst part would be the part with one strum followed by 5+ hammer-ons/pull-offs, and even that was a cake walk.

Do as it says. This one is pretty tough. The hammer ons are on opposite buttons. You will need to frequently go from green to orange or red to blue pretty quickly. Once you get the hammer on pattern, that is basically what you play the entire song. The intro and outro are the same and if you could do the rest of the song you should be able to do them. There is one tricky hammer on. It is a yellow that is between some double notes.

The strum pattern for this song may be confusing at first, get used to the rhythm and practice it if necessary. You don't have to 100% the song, just hit all of the HOPOs without strumming any of them, meaning that if you miss a normal note and the following note is a HOPO, you will not be able to get the achievement. It helps to 100% it so that you don't get confused.
