depends on your pop
a kickflip/heelflip is different because of the angular moment of inertia
i know this hahah i skate
if you get that board spinning fast enough to go 3 times on flat ground how the hell are you going to land on it
luck lmao
granted ive never seen a 1080 shuv it cuz its just not practical at all to even attempt it
but i've seen 720 flips and shuv before both in person and thru videos
ok I see it
do you watch skate videos?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8pOF75pSLY4 so the missing ingredient in my understanding here
is that mechanically
- it's really easy to get the board spinning in that direction with your feet
- the board does not have to leave the ground very high
ok on a little board like that doesnt provide a comparison
yeah but
what pro you know skates on a deck that small?
I'm saying this is why it would be more viable than like
a flatground 1080 kickflip or something
physics wise
again both have no practicality
the problem is you're not running that while you're moving unless you get REALLY LUCKY
because the board has to land right AND you have to land on the board
the problem is that its not practical to even attempt at all
yeah
I'm discussing the degree at which Skate. should let you do types of tricks that previous games don't let you do
and maybe going full skater xl is not the right way to do that because that game lets you do stuff that's so impractical
i know hahaha its just the direction this convo went lmao
have you sent in this idea?
skater xl like assumes that a spinning board will stay magnetized to below your feet and you'll land on it perfectly
yeah
I at least want the ones that are practical
thats why its a video game dude lmao
I know but in skater xl it's to the point of being goofy
the tricks youre talking about are not tho?
so is skate lol
mentioned but you focused on 720 and 1080 rotations so now thats the focus
I brought those up because I'm saying how far should they let you push it
completely different rotations tho fam so they get lumped into their own category
especially considering there's going to be a hardcore difficulty and if someone goes off a quarterpipe on hardcore, does a 1080 pop shuvit and lands it they'll be like "wait isn't hardcore supposed to be realistic"
i get that but then you also mentioned practicality....pushing that far practical?
if they want realistic then they should play skater xl or session
what I am saying is they should allow for flip tricks that go further than previous skate games but I'm not sure if they should go full skater xl with it
but youre suggesting that they do with the extra rotations
I am merely suggesting letting you go further and I am not entirely sure on how far they should go
at the very least let you go as far as tricks that have actually been performed irl
if nothing else
unlock body flips though because the lock on those in skate 3 is entirely arbitrary
skate 3 didnt include those cuz no one thought about attempting those in real life yet alone fathom attempting those rotations
granted skating as changed a lot so there is potential
but when it comes to practicality as it was aforementioned by you and I
doesnt seem all that practical
however the skate series is the evolution of the arcadey skate games that are out there
thats why Tony Hawk went under as far as video game titles
Skate took what tony hawk games did and took it to a whole other ball park
so i'll end the convo with this...
we'll see what happens
you seem really laser focused on the 1080 thing I mentioned as if I haven't reiterated the point I'm trying to make is people have done 540 pop shovits in real life and you can't do them in skate 3
you seem to be obstinately refusing my attempts to redirect the conversation to that point
cucz that was the fpcus for a good part of the convo?
thats your perspective haha
yeah and you brought up good points and I agreed with you?
if 1080 isn't practical and you don't think it should be in the game then I'm not shooting for it that hard lol
but I want tricks that are practical to be in the game
i hear ya bredda
I just thought of something
you think the reception of the latest Battlefield games was involved in the decision to open playtesting for Skate. as early as possible
didnt even know there was a new battlefield game
Helix, what has happened with YT content? Off Topic.
People are leaking the content of the playtesting
So its not that popular anymore rly
sorta fell off, ran out of games to make content on, got a full time job
I still made some videos but they're not too popular
Oh, Thats cool. Hope its going well and all.
it's going great I love my job
Good, thats the main thing. Its not easy maintaining a channel im sure
What’s going on here?
yeah it was a lot of fun making content but it wasn't a lot of fun watching my views drop
and I can only do so much in skate 3 in like, 10 years of playing it lol
yea im sure.
Yours skate related videos seemed to be the most popular.
my mario odyssey and gta stuff was also pretty popular
yeah my top 3 videos are skate 3, then gta 5, then mario odyssey
dont know haha
oh my god my skate 3 tutorial on launch glitches has 1.2 million views
when did this happen
cant read lol
Sorry but I’m Jared, 19
sometime since you uploaded it?
I dont think you realize how your skate content has risen
sorry im hyper and lit hahaha
I know some of it has
Ok
some of it is a surprise
I never learned how to read :(
classic
that tutorial is my 4th most popular skate 3 video
it looks like it never really went viral it just had massive legs
All of your skate vids are popular, but soon you seemed to stop making videos about it and people then left because of that.
my skate vids weren't doing amazingly near the end
I want to say 2013-2014 were the golden years
when I was discovering amazing thing after amazing thing
after that it sort of fizzled out, and it was hard to find anything great that wasn't just launching your character
every once in a while there was something new and fun but by 2021 there just wasn't anything left interesting to do
I would say its hard trying to make more videos if you see that your videos are not as good as your others sometimes get
it's also lack of satisfaction with my own content
why not just put the videos out regardless?
I knew every trick, every corner of the map, every thing I could do with props
there wasn't much milk left in the cow at that point
its your content you enjoy making it right?
thats what matters as long as you enjoy what you're makin
no one is going to watch the same thing over and over
so?
diversity is a really important part of my glitch videos
that's just it, I wasn't
then you need to fix that
how
If you try make a skate 3 vid, The people will recognize it and want another one. Just like all of them
not for me to know thats 100% you
you'd think but the buzz around my skate 3 videos wasn't that great back when I started making them again
i just started making skate 3 content this year as well as streaming it
that could change now
Yooo ecka
it looks like you're implying there's a solution but not giving one
no it can't and it doesn't need to
I have a full time job that takes up a lot of my daily energy
I don't have the time or energy to create content
theres always a solution but do you want to be spoonfed the answer or do you want the satisfaction of doing it all on your own
do you how much time skate 3 clips take
as do i
yes i do
I've spent 3 hours on a 10 second clip
whatuptho fam?
near the end of my career all of my videos were taking that long or longer to find new things
all apart of the creative process
5 mins to 3 hours depends
i make and put out music same principal applies to it
We are not pressurizing you to make one, but to try keep it alive when you are free and feel the want to.
Its all your choice
I don't want to hear you lecturing me on this ecka when I've been doing this for 10 years lmao
thats all im saying
I'm choosing to put my energy into my job
im not lecturing you im merely just chatting dude lol
but all good i'll leave it be
Thats what its about and keep doing it. Im sure you enjoy your job rather than spending 3 hours for a 19 second clip and not benefiting but only satisfaction.
when skate 4 is in public beta if I'm allowed to record it, then I'll upload some content
I would do the same
youtube pays like ass too
i'll keep an eye for it
if you don't have like a million subscribers and put out daily 10+ minute videos
Sure, yes.
much like spotify lol
yeah I made quite a few bucks off of my youtube channel
but not enough to even pay the rent where I'm living
but im sure after you saw that your video spiked it gave you a good feeling.
But i would rely on a job more than youtube
Not like I would know but hey, enjoy it whilst you still have the chance of owning a 154k sub channel.
goodmorning
How it is morning
Lol, its 6 in afternoon for me
whats the time for you?
mooorrrnnnin
10:31 am and I’m at a dog park with my Alaskan Klee Kai (mini husky)
at 10
He’s taking a water break.
10 at night...
AM.
On Saturday I go to 2-3 parks with him.
This is the release date for Skate 4
can your dog skate a half pipe
oh my god
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skateboarding_dog this is a real wikipedia article
Lmao skate. Is gonna release October on the 58th day
Zoom zoom dogs
We need skatedog
you can pet the skatedog
You can skate with skatedog
final boss of Skate. is a contest against the sickest skateboarding dog ever
You can become skatedog in mini game
You skatedog
Skatedog
Skatedog. is now the new title for skate.
I just laughed out loud in my college class😂
Lolll
Start over. Make skatedog
Skatedog needs fanart
True
I just thought of something
what if cosmetic options include arm poses
and there are speed glitches in the game that require certain arm poses
accidental pay to win 💀
Have y’all seen my dog?
Welcome back to Instagram. Sign in to check out what your friends, family & interests have been capturing & sharing around the world.
I gotta get a recording of me and him cruising the beach on my Sector 9. He’s my little mini sled dog.
skate dog fan art in #skate-memes
nvm...skate dog must be a huskey
I must redo my fan art lmao
😨

if skate dog is added to the game. we forgive him
anyway. so skatedog is offical at this point 😂 the fanart exists
Wassup y'all
heyoo
How's the weekend going for ya?
im currently in a softerwear internship course...soooo its going okay ig lmao
hyped for skatedog. lol
oh boy lmfao
hows your weekend going?
Pretty good. My gf was nice enough to buy me a new horror game that I've been looking forward to for like a year lmfao
damn that is nice, no bettter feeling then that
Fr, she's too good to me haha
yk what would make this weekend better for everyone?
A video of Braddock's dog on a skateboard?
I wish I had a bigger dog cause then I could really skate with them. With the small ones I always try to make sure I'm going fast enough that they are never actually pulling me with their tiny backs
get a dog backpack and take them on a ride
LOL now that I definitely don't trust them to find a way out and run for it. Silly pups escape things all the time
i think my idea for skate is pretty good
i think it'll really innovate the franchise
I agree
I really need help signing up a new account on skate 3
It keeps making me sign in and download profile when I don’t remember or have one
I’m screwed can’t play all the features of the game
yo so i completed all of the death races yet i can’t find dem bones in my extra skaters in free skate
every single thing i look up is different so i need somebody to answer how i actually get him
Help
Yo have you beat the game before
uhh no this is my first playthrough
I don’t remember and lmao I can’t even play the game anymore
then why did you even reply lol??
No reason
pretty sure you have to beat all the hall of meat challenges to get dem bones
i thought that was to unlock meat man
I’m concerned about the next skate game and wanted y’all to know that
What do we do with that information?
Or do you want to elaborate as to why?
goobins
Yea sure. I don’t want this game to be free to pay, I would gladly pay 60$ for a game that has no micro transactions instead you can unlock items and customizations like the old ones by completing challenges. I also want single player too, i think having skate be an entirely live service game will make fans of the old games feel disconnected. I know EA wants to make a profit in addition to selling great games, but I think the best way to do that is offering DLC that is worth the money (like Danny Way’s Hawaiian Dream)
aren’t they’re like no pay walls or stuff like that
Yes but I think there’s an issue of trust here
The only problem with paid map DLCs like that is the player base is split and fractured for any kind of online play. F2P opens it up to a much larger player base and since they announced that there won't be paid maps we know that any new places they put out we all have access to
My concern is I guess, since it’s free to play what will players have to pay for? I sure hope I don’t have to spend $2 for my skater to rock some nike SB’s
yeah well,
there’s a carbon monoxide leak in your home
Bro who r u
you’re hallucinating this whole conversation brochacho
sadly i think youll be spending a lil more than $2 for sbs lol
🛹
no
ē
the idea is, you have "whales" which hopefully are just people with more money than sense instead of people being taken advantage of, and then you have everyone else who in the worst case is hopefully not going to spend a ton of money on the game anyway
so ideally in the long run you spend less than you would have spent on a $60 plus DLC
and this applies extra to a game you're going to play a ton - depending on the monetization you might end up earning all of the things you might have bought
F2P is fine theoretically - especially for things like long term support due to steadier continued income
most of the time when F2P becomes a "bad deal" compared to 60 dollars + DLC is in implementation
not in the fact that F2P was chosen as the model
that's my take on it anyways
for the counter example
The Sims 4 launched at 60 dollars and has over 600 dollars worth of DLC
you can get fleeced for a non-free to play game too
how much was skate3 + all dlc, like 80 dollars?
I doubt I'll spend that much on Skate.
I GOT SKATE 3 ON PC 🥳 Problem tho... i can only do basic actions with keyboard... i connected a ps4 controller with a wire but it didnt work, i can only use keyboard
why would you get it on a pc
you're not supposed to talk about this here
wait is it like xbox cloud gaming is that a thing
ok it is
Or people who enjoy throwing money at a game they like and have the disposable income. And then there's the other thing I do that I've used to buy all my apex and halo micro-transactions,
Xbox Rewards. Through that I get around $10+ a month redeemed. In Halo's case, Microsoft is paying itself lol
Yeah. Not wrong, but not worded right either lol
I'm totally the kind of person who would dump thousands of dollars on something like that because I do have that kind of disposable income
but like
there's no game where spending that much money is really worth it
Which server do you download it skate
Just ask mmo fans before ftp games were more mainstream for them lol
I dumped a thousand dollars on a VR headset tho
What exactly are you asking and have you read #rules #9 #14
with mmos the stuff you buy is usually some kind of status symbol and I have my own disagreements with that kind of thing on principal
OK this is rude but shut up that doesn’t make any sense
You might’ve got your rules mixed up
#rules #1 #12
Oh yeah, and #17
I could’ve cussed you out but I didn’t I’m being civil about this
Firstly, they simply asked what the heck YOU were asking about. On top of that, depending on what you were trying to ask, it's important to check THOSE rules. The mods know what they're doing
Which skate are you asking for? You want to use your words and explain yourself a little better? We can't help you if we don't know what you are asking
Why did you write a paragraph
Stop writing paragraphs
You’re writing a paragraph to spite me
Answer the question. What are you asking for?
I was literally asking do you know if I could get a download link to skate
Which one
I did sign up for a play test it didn’t let me download it though
And if you're lucky, you will get accepted in and get to play
yeah you have to get chosen
IF you are selected for an upcoming playtest, then you will receive an email explaining what you need to know.
K
Definitely agree! Hub and I each have a dev kit 1 and he got a quest not too long ago. A blast for sure
boneworks is so much fun I just wish it didn't make me so sick
boneworks is the kind of game I've been imagining ever since the Nintendo Wii was announced and failed to deliver on the motion controls
i feel that
i didn't get to play boneworks yet but when my brother got his rift s
first game we played was robo recall
i got motion sickness 30 minutes in
I bought over the counter motion sickness meds so I could play boneworks more than 30 minutes
and threw out my back trying to do that matrix back bend
skate
Honestly I got the Quest back when the first one was still new and I still use it, absolutely love it
oh boy if you got motion sickness in a teleport-to-move game
you would get sick so fast in boneworks
I get motion sickness pretty easily
boneworks is why I am against the idea of a skateboarding VR game
I actually prefer teleport to move over locomotive movement. Way less nauseating for me
Whoa there, just so you know, "fighting through" the motion sickness makes it worse in the brain
the instant you go up a quarterpipe you are getting sick
Skateboarding VR game how would you even do it
at what point does it become just skating
I never fought through it I just quit
when I felt sick
but motion sickness meds made it so I could go longer before feeling sick
Echo VR helped me work through the tiny bit I had and now I almost never feel it
worth noting I don't have it in any other game
I can play half life alyx for 2 hours straight
boneworks is different from most VR games
Oddly enough, Super Hot is the one VR game I can play for hours on end without starting to feel sick at all
boneworks is the full potential of movement a VR game can allow when it does not give a damn whether you get sick
there is nothing put in to mitigate getting sick
the only consideration is at least the direction of "up" doesn't change
im gonna do some sick kickflips
but yeah you're climbing and jumping and running your way through that game no teleport to move
"the enemy's gate is down"
oh I have a video showing why I loved boneworks so much
i will say
vr letting you actually pretend you're in a John Woo flick
I'll wrap it so that it doesn't embed since it's not skate related
is like amazing
well it wasn't amazing for my living room or my body, kept jumping into things
lol
The only way I can see skate working in a VR type game is maybe handboarding
Tech Deck VR let's go
at that point im gonna be real with you, just pick up fingerboarding or handboarding for real
tony hawk ride with your fingers doesn't sound fun to me
yeah there's no reason to fingerboard in a video game
video games are for things that are inconvenient/hard to do in real life
i sometimes use skate to get ideas for fingerboarding and vice versa lol
fingerboarding hall of meat mode when
also yeah it's interesting how skateboarding itself translates so well to video games
and i guess snowboarding to an extent
That's the joke
always wondered why the skate series never got a PC port at the time
Annnd that's what we don't discuss here because of the ToS and grey area of emulation snowball 
same, been tryna download it all day on here, works rlly good, tryna connect a controller tho, its a nightmare !!!
wdym
No illegal talk here, and emulation is a HUGE legal grey area
is emulation not that good?
so does anyone actually know how to unlock dem bones?? i did all the deathraces and can’t find him in free skate
it is?
it's a grey area annnnnnnd I think EA is running this specific server
I thought Dem Bones was a HoM thing?
Which skate game
but that’s how u unlock meat man i thought?
i just followed a yt video lmao, sorry my bad
the situations where it is legal are not the situations it's used for like 99% of the time
Emulation discussion is not allowed in this server unless through official methods like the Xbox 1 emulating the 360
I honestly cannot remember
everyone says something different
in all skates he unlocks via Hall of Meat
i just need a proper answer
how many i gotta complete to get him, i’ve completed 11
I think meat man and dem bones both unlock the same way
First one you had to break all bones 3 times
2nd was i think finishing all HoM
3rd he unlocks after you own all the HoM challenges?
which is beat all the hall of meat missions
is there another way to download it?
If you're looking for PC play, Xbox Cloud Gaming
i tried that, didnt have much luck
Watchu mean?
Skate isn't on Playstation Now still?
It's all good. The early pins on this channel and in the skate 3 channel go a little more into it 
just play skate on xbox man got dayumn!!
some people don't have an xbox?
^
skill issue bro
i tried to install it through xbox since i had it on my old xbox but it wouldn't download
said it was unavailable or something
Oh, no, I mean just go through Xbox Cloud Gaming on the Xbox app
alright i'll have a look, thanks : )
i'll try that
@blazing moss this comment in particular explains it for the most part. But I recommend further discussion on it be taken somewhere else. You're not in trouble for it or anything, it's just this is the official EA skate server so we gotta abide by the terms of service for the games 
y’all take forever to type
Based on your internet speed, you may have a little bit of input lag since you're playing on the Cloud service, but I didn't have too much of an issue with it
some people are on their phones
i’m on my phone bro
i just type quickly
some people are not on android and do not have the quick slide feature
Congrats, you want a cookie or something?
i’m on iphone brainiac
how are you typing so fast on an iphone
you just have skill issue broski
And I look up extra information mid sentence to back up what I say and provide other sources to others that might help with what they are looking for
I never use discord on my phone lol
ah got it
will do thanks sm tho !
i used it for like a year
much appreciated : )
i quit all my servers and joined this one to ask about dem bones
coincidentally slimmed down once i stopped being on discord as much as i used to
went on cloud and it seems i can only download it to my xbox from my pc, check dms
also is there a way you can send replays in skate 3 to an iphone camera roll
or gmail a replay to an account so i could save it
for now i’ve just been recording my tv screen to show replays
use obs
tf is that
streaming software that can record as well
Something that doesn't exist on consoles
is it free
yes
alr can i send something from xbox directly to it
you can record cloud gaming stuff with it tho can't you?
On Xbox I play the replay then use the "record that" feature, then upload it to mydrive
doesn't the xbox support onedrive
When did he say he was playing cloud
oh I got mixed up
If streaming on PC, you can press win+g to bring up the Xbox game bars and screen record the same way
gah damn what do these terms mean i’m new to xbox
Xbox one and up have recording features
it was a hand me down from my brother
Is it an Xbox 360 or Xbox one
xbox one
You can record natively on the Xbox one
Don't know if that feature is available on backwards compatible titles
ah
i meant like, a replay you can make in skate 3. is there any way i can upload that to a phone/gmail it to somebody?
Xbox button, then X button. You can change how much is recorded in the Xbox settings
- Edit the replay as you want it to be in-game.
- Press play on the replay
- After it's done playing Press the Xbox button on the controller, then press X to "record that"
alr alr
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LzIqmVXT_YA
If you need help setting up your Xbox to upload your capture clips to OneDrive
what is onedrive
Microsoft file syncing app like Google Drive, Dropbox, ect
ah
well it needs to be sent directly to a phone i can’t use a pc for it
i don’t have google drive on my phone
Ok, then after you record it, you can "send to mobile"
You'll get an alert on your phone with the Xbox app and you can download it there
so it’s xbox button and x to record, how would i stop recording?
It records the last 30s of gameplay (up to 60s with a lower quality you can adjust in the system settings)
uhhhhhh
And then you can trim it before choosing to upload
this is just straight up xbox recording?
i’m so confused rn because that sounds like skate 3 replays
is this xbox recording or skate 3 replays
I think it's technically called game dvr
i cant comprehend this
The Xbox is recording everything you did within the last 30sec
You wouldn't!
aint pretty but it'll get the job done and you can make everyone relive the old days
yeah but then like, it shows these weird wavy things on the screen and makes me look stupid
i usually record the screen like that but i want the quality to be better
moire lines
to clarify
it's the xbox capturing the footage of what your console is playing
in this case it'll be your skate 3 gameplay where you're in the replay editor playing back the replay
this is my first time ever actually playing on an xbox can you explain in simpler terms
like caveman terms
Basically a recording of a recording without losing quality
less words me read harder
Are you taking this seriously
yeah bro i actually can’t understand this shi
Everything you do is always being recorded on Xbox up to 30sec in the past. You can choose to save that
this is the first time i’ve played on console
so i play the clip THEN record it?
Yeah! Exactly
That's the steps right there 
thanks
if i can’t figure it out my monkey brain will reduce itself to trial and error
Make sure you have the Xbox app on your phone you are signed into
yeup i do
Coolio. If you run into any snags just ask 
sky quick question about the skate decks that are going around
how come the holes are off enough that most standard hardware doesn't fit correctly
Haven't heard anything about that
i only heard about it cause syphrus made a video and they showed how on his deck the holes didn't line up with his trucks
it's a moot question because why would anyone try to ride a collectors deck like that
Mine line up just fine, and I think I've seen the photo before that started the claim, and from what I can tell from the photo is if we're looking at it correctly, then it actually looks like they used trucks with an old school hole pattern and the deck uses the new school pattern as all decks today tend to follow.
wow ive been out of the game then
completely forgot they have different hardware for different style decks
But even then, I still don't know what it would be cause they are skatable 
let me tell you that's the world's most expensive and rarest carpet board
Most of the trucks I've seen include old and new hole patterns unless they are trying to shave off a tiny bit of weight
gotcha, this is why im glad that at least in fingerboarding we don't have enough material to even make trucks with different pattern holes lol
As far as I've been skating it's just been the new pattern but I've encountered friends with older trucks that were still being used that we're old pattern so they just drilled two new holes in the deck to make em fit
Beautiful, feels like a premium deck and the poppy sound (almost echoy) of the wood begs to be ridden
*I thought you meant the second one for some reason
Hi
Hi nik
Hi nik
hey nik.
Hi Nik
I hope you're doing well
nikolas
You too man! 
Hurt 🙂
hope you're doing well mate!
smumday
good morning yo
its midday here 
this discord is always surprisingly active when I get up
Cuz we are waiting always waiting for ya 😄
Syphrus is I'm pretty sure in America though so for him it was at the latest 5 am when he posted lol
yeah he is from west side, so right now its 4 am his time
I want to play skate 2 😐
don't want to dust off my ancient ps3 to do it though
did the PS3 version of Skate 2 have the option to unlock the frames?
I have a problem where I'm straight up just not playing video games anymore
maybe I'll try to finish neon white at least
it’s so windy
morning sk8rs
footplants in skate 3 be like https://i.imgur.com/we1KPKm.mp4
Howdy!

I'm seeing a lot of stuff in #skate-ideas-archived that are basically straight out of GTA online
and I don't know about anyone else but I REALLY don't want that used as a guide for how Skate. works
that said some elements of "representation of progression" ideas I actually kind of like - I just don't want GTA Online used as a base for them
for instance as you make progress in Saints Row 2 you unlock new HQs and can unlock options for putting different stuff in them - that's pretty cool imo
but I want it to be progression gated not currency gated
there's a tiny amount of representation of progression in Skate 3 but it's actually really weak - just billboards and ads you can put up that you'll barely ever see and you unlock the vast majority of them in a few hours
I'd put something in #skate-ideas-archived but I don't really have any specific ideas - I just want to see the game world change somehow as I make progression through the game
however it's more likely in a live service game that a different approach is taken - where the game world changes as a result of actual events designed by the devs, and this is also an approach I like
you see this a lot in MMOs
I think the idea of having private hang out areas unlocked via progression is cool but it sort of overlaps too hard with custom parks which I think should be entirely free (maybe you unlock parts for it by doing specific challenges like previous games)
does anyone else have any ideas for representing player progression somehow, even if just aesthetically? I'd really like to hear other people's ideas on this
I’m doing well, I hope you are also
You can reply to the threads on #skate-ideas-archived to give any feedback
I did
the thing is I agree with a lot of these things based on what they add but the problem with GTA Online is that everything is designed around trying to sell you shark cards which cost real money
I do NOT want Skate. copying that model
there are entire game modes gated behind huge purchases with in game currency which can be bought with real money
The game is gonna be free so I'm guessing there will also be a lot of stuff that you can buy which im okay with but I'd want the opportunity to get that stuff trough playing in such case
You really should be putting all of this in the threads of the ideas
I'm really curious about representation of progression because now that I think about it Skate 3 did that REALLY badly and I want to think about how it could do better but I'm drawing a blank
Skate 3 did it pretty much entirely through unlocking stuff
but you never really got the sense you were making progress aside from that
it's funny that what has been agreed to as the "win condition" (a million board sales) just kind of happens while you're playing the game
it's like "oh I was just playing the game and hit the win condition, oh well time to keep playing"
and you don't really get anything for it either if I remember correctly
I got 2 month Xbox gold membership
If I had Skate 3 I would be happy
But hey at least I can play GTA IV online multiplayer
wait what
I thought they made it so you couldn't play GTA 4 multiplayer like, 5 years ago
No
That’s for the steam version
The console versions are still the same they haven’t removed the musics that were expired or anything
But you can play online in steam if you mod it
But for now I could just play it on laptop
So I could giveaway the Xbox gold if anyone wants one
Just DM me if you want it
naw I don't need it
This game is free. It will be wrecked with goofy crap like fortnite
why does that matter to you lmao just don’t buy cosmetics
why does it matter that your little character has to be wearing a digital little piece of plastic
never understood why people hate it when free games make cosmetics cost money. they gotta make money somehow yknow?? they’re not gonna give you a game that’s been hyped for over a decade for completely free
why does that matter to you lmao just don’t buy cosmetics
???
bro did you read my message correctly, i’m encouraging free games to make cosmetics cost money
@gleaming peak did you give up on your streaming role and or mod journey
Why do people buy $1000 skins on csgo if its just a silly cosmetic
its still optional tho
Its not even physical 😭
its not like it has an actual benefit
Why $1000 worth
rarity ig i dont really play csgo so i dont know abt it too much
but people still resell the skins for profit
Thats why if skate was on steam, using cosmetics that cost money would create a market. Off topic.
yeah but i dont think non valve games have a market like that
i could be wrong
This
I don't think that adding cosmetics that cost money to a free game would make it "Free"
Just for people who like spending money on games lol
its a free to play so its not gonna make EVERYTHING free
True, why would EA put so many hours of work into a game and not try make money off it
nope
just life has taken over my time
understandable
more arguments about f2p lol
it's not that simple
there are sociological issues with certain F2P models even cosmetic only
on the flipside they do need to actually make a profit with the game and enough of one to justify extended support
it's going to be a delicate balance and the team will have to very carefully and purposefully design a system that will generate a good amount of profit without generating large amounts of negative perceptions about the game
they already confirmed paid lootboxes are not in so that's one step forward
it's not as simple as "just make everything free" and it's not as simple as "they need to make money so anything is ok as long as it's not p2w"
but they will definitely be focused on trying to not only make a profit but a decent one
because that will affect their ability to support the game over time
😭
why does that matter to you lmao just don’t buy cosmetics
can't tell if trolling or not
He constantly is
y’all are still on this like an hour later
why do these conversations drag on for hours with little messages
Micro-trans are a curse.
Because were pissed
if you're going to doom and spread confident negativity about the new Skate. maybe don't do that in the official Skate. server where saying something like "I hope they don't do x" is a lot more helpful and productive than "they're 100% going to do x and the game this server's about is 100% sure to be garbage" because at that point why are you even here
I hope they don't turn it into every other EA game with expensive and bogus micro trans, pay to win, pay to play style suff
Unlock kickflip for 19.99 usd
yeah first of all
they already said they wouldn't
secondly
Apex Legends is considered to be pretty generous for a F2P title
so that's one example of an F2P game by EA done right
the board room meeting specifically said no pay to win
and if you're going to do what some other people here did and call the devs liars maybe do that somewhere other than the official server for the game
Calm down simp. We said we are hoping for no disasters.
can you not insult me please
I'm hoping for no disasters too lol
I'm open to the possibility of them blowing it
I just don't think it's as sure a thing as some people do
Lol, my man is speaking facts. 💀
has EA ever released a game with something this egregious that was not Fifa or a mobile title
like even at their worst
It a meme reference.
they better let me pull out my gat and start blasting then do a bank heist
oh ok lol
I dunno the meme
it's funny because "unlock basic feature for 19.99 usd" is unironically the state of mobile gaming
its an exaggerated joke about microtransactions
it's not as exaggerated as you think anymore lol
lol yeah.. i just played a game that had p2w stuff on it
like you would absolutely see that in some mobile games
mobile game
oh you don't mean a specific meme
no
just like making a joke
like a joke of EA asking for money
FYI, i'd much rather pay $60 for a full game than to have this free. I assume they want to try to make more than $60 off each player so theyre going the Free route with Micro Trans even tho its all cosmetic 🤷🏽♂️ I just feel like this decision will hinder the production value and this game is going to launch weaker than it would if it was being released a full priced fully tested game like they have been in the past.
in games
I want to point out that generally with F2P you have some other considerations
one is that people will spend money over a longer period of time instead of all at once at launch
two is that people who have a ton of disposable income will spend a lot more on the game
and people with very little will probably pay way less than 60 dollars
three is that people who got the game at launch aren't "one and done" customers, as long as they keep playing they're a continued income source, whereas most games the vast majority of sales come from the first few weeks, barring games that come back in popularity like skate 3
but why cant they do both? Why cant they make a fully finished game, fully tested and stable on launch for the normal price as they always have, and just launch official DLC maps, Contests or Micro Trans for cosmetics to Console players
ok this is a weird question lmao
because you're basically saying "why not do all the things people don't like about F2P and also make me pay 60 dollars"
also there is some perception that F2P means early access
You know PC gamers will mod their own cosmetics and maps like skater xl... they shouldnt try to restrict that by offereing micro trans for the same stuff the community will create free
early access is for low budget devs who need the funding before the game is finished
when did i say early access tho?
you mentioned a "fully finished game, fully tested and stable on launch" as if that was not going to happen because it's f2p?
that implies some kind of early access to me, I dunno what you meant
You dont think that they will launch this game sooner than they would if they were launching a full game on disc?
That is the problem with F2P, cant complain about bugs and patches when you didnt pay for it....
I mean you can stop playing the game and then they definitely don't get your money
if a game is broken on release and people buy it their money is gone
if anything there is even more incentive to release the game in a good state in F2P because the people who start playing haven't spent their money yet
that has never stopped developers because yeah maybe YOU might stop playing, but enough people will continue to play through bugs and glitches
how is this any different for a fully released title
do you not remember the assassin's creed unity launch
bottom line, far too many games are being released unfinished and with bugs. This was NEVER as big of an issue when games were launched on discs.
yes it was lmao
No it wasnt
I just mentioned assassin's creed unity
that launched on disc
you mean before online patches?
You must be young...
I'm probably older than you are
im 41...
ok lol I wasn't counting on that high of an age
I'm 31
but I grew up before patches so I know what you're trying to say
and yeah I don't disagree
Ive been gaming since PONG.....
but I don't understand what F2P has or doesn't have to do with that
wasn't pong the 70s
I mean you had pong and then 2 atari consoles and then NES would have come out when you were around 3 years old
whats your point? i have still been gaming since PONG. Was the first game i played.... then Atari
i never said ive played PONG since it came out.... read
so I think saying you've been gaming since pong is a bit disingenuous, one of the earliest games I played was on the Apple 2 but that isn't property representative of when I started gaming because it was an old ass computer at the time
you are just arguing for the sake or arguing at this mute point...
moot point but ok back to the original point
Do you mean Apple 2E?
Apple II
anyways back to the original point
why does F2P make it more likely to be glitchy
when releasing it on disc would still let them patch it
like every other game that releases on disc nowadays and is buggy at launch
because there's no expectation on launch....
ok once again I have to state
with normal releases you spend the money before you even play the game
with F2P you play the game first
there's no logical reason the second would have more incentive to release in a buggy state
and we had an expectation that were buying a finished game lol there were no updates or patches on early consoles with full priced 50-60 games. You buy the game, you play it, it works.
yeah but we are literally not in that time anymore
releasing on disk wouldn't change that
that ship has sailed, you can't count on a game to be bug free at launch anymore
regardless of how it's released
The Wii was like the last console with old enough online infrastructure that games didn't get patched
only for the fact that consoles and pc's have update opportunities to fixes issues AFTER launch. If there were no options for that.... they you make sure the game is fully tested and working right before releasing it...
its just Logic 🤷🏽♂️
again I'm saying
games released on disc with no updates
literally don't exist anymore
so what point are you trying to make
it's going nowhere because you keep forgetting how the conversation started within like a matter of minutes
why does F2p make it more likely to be buggy than not F2P and don't bring up gamecube era disc releases because that is not relevant to your point
youre saying, discs dont exist so whats your point and im saying THAT IS THE POINT lmao.... the fact that Developers have options to fix there game AFTER launch now with update and patching opportunities gives them all the reason to launch at any point wether its finished or not, and that is the point if that hasnt been completely obvious. Anywho, i feel like i have lost brain cells and intellect in this conversation so i wont be replying anymore. Enjoy your day kind sir.
ok that's not the point that started the conversation but whatever enjoy your day too
that's the second time on this channel someone has gone from a point I'm disagreeing with to an argument about a point I actually agree with them on and then hyperfixated on the latter while refusing to return to the former
if we wanted to discuss that I could bring up the fact that smash bros brawl completely tanked because it didn't receive any balance patches, or how Twilight Princess had an infamous glitch that broke your save file and Nintendo had to actually have people send in their memory cards to fix it
by tanked I mean competitively, brawl was broken in so many ways
but yeah I'll take games being rough or buggy at launch to the days where you could break your save file and that was it, it's over
as uncommon as it was
Lol that was kinda cringe ngl 💀😭
Skate 3 releases freee but skateboard feature is 39.99
we get it you're very funny
*your
I can't remember the last time I've had someone incorrectly correct my grammar lmao
Enjoying your sunday? Nah. Arguing with strangers on the skateboard game discord? Epic and based.
Here's a suggestion, kick back, relax, and enjoy the small sliver of time we have on this planet.
one half of internet arguments are between people who agree with each other
what do you mean lol
41?
that's only 10 years older than me?
Im 16 dude
yeah I know
😭
skate fanbase tends young
Woah. How\
I learned that from joining online lobbies in skate 3
Me at 24...
I didn't mean I know your specific age
just that I knew there are a lot of teenagers here
Sorry, im just surprised
24 is reasonable and 31
But 41
Eish, thats almost my dads age
most people just don't bring up their age when they're that old
plenty of people are that age on discord
ok so
Thats kinda creepy how most of the people are kids on this app.
and people like this age talk to then
41 years old is right where the threshold for millennial is
so he could be a millennial
I'm sorry I guess people aren't allowed to be... old
and use technology
trust me I know about that but it's not restricted to old people
Who else then?
anyways don't be ageist, discord is not exclusively a platform for minors
some discords I'm in have barely any
You've been warned many times for your behavior. I am strongly suggesting you take another look at the #rules
Why does this dude hate me so much
Been playing since skate 1 and I’m 23 now
Rules? Idk? Maybe?
Brayden go back in your bed.
wait am i not allowed to make jokes in this channel
Not like that
I don't hate you. I do wish however, that you would exercise more self control that you should be capable of displaying when engaging in conversation with others in the medium
He's gonna beat me up like that guy in the tony hawk games
Whatuptho yall?
what is happening here
Boredom
Idk I just woke up
Boredom breeds creativity. Go forward and be creative!
Merning then
Haha how's it going?
Great for an afternoon. First day I feel like myself in weeks and I hope it stays a while
Ayyy that's good to hear fam! Proud of you!!!
I didn't do anything but thanks 
Hey gotta enjoy the little victories know what I mean?
Touch grass sir. It's good for the heart and soul
Anyone else starting to think they are a bot that auto generates responses? 
anything that somehow is against someone is basically banned in this channel
Lets be honest
The paragraphs of text are seem up there ^^^^
I'm aware
what
goodafternoon man, im working atm also waiting for skate to release, how are you
and ?
Do u read it?>

I skim every message here
Yea, same. I glance my eyes over it and then get bored.
Chilling woke up suuuuuper
Was out with some friends playing a show
do you dj or something? awesome
i do sampled hiphop/boombap beats as a hobby
yeah i dj as well as produce
i love making boom bap its what i grew up with
sounds awesome man, keep it going!
also does anyone know how to get the highest score in the first round of the monster park jam?? all my scores are around 7,000, i can’t ever get in first place in that round. only reason i’m losing
with the “solo run” things??
Reminder: (since I’ve caught up to the chat)
Ageism is a form of discrimination and will result in your removal from this server. Harassment is never okay.
I don't remember that challenge, what does it consist of?
the monster park jam yknow??
you have 30 seconds to get your highest score in the first round
I haven't played the skate 3 single player in like 5 years let me look it up
and idk how to get to like 19,000 like the pros i have to beat
all my runs are around 7,000
first of all you know how to pump transitions right?
no
i just got through the game without knowing how to do those and somehow making it through without ever using them
Did I miss actual ageism in my skimming? 
what’s a transitional and how do i pump it
bro i hate tutorials just tell me how to do it
i cant understand tutorials
why does that matter to you lmao just don’t buy cosmetics
also worth noting: rotating during a jump gives you more points, flip tricks other than ollies give you more points, the more advanced flip trips give you more points
Get a skateboard and do squats on it
Transition is the part of a surface that goes from parallel to the floor, to vertical, so thing very and miniramp type skating
yeah bro i know this i do all this junk and i only get like 7,000 points
how do i get over 17,000
How about you keep relevant to the actual conversation?
ok goobins to pump transitions you need to crouch with R2 or L2 when approaching a change in curvature like a quarterpipe and then release it when you hit the change in curvature
you get a bunch of extra speed and more height
this allows you to get enough points off the quarterpipe after the mega ramp because you get more height
there's a quarter pipe immediately after it
exactly how much more points does this give me?
you will get like twice as much air on the quarterpipe
because i only have 30 seconds to do this
so a lot
depends on the tricks
i usually do miracle whips or plain super dudes
Any thing that goes from flat to vertical is counted as transition and can be pumped.
Pump = more air, more air = more time for tricks, more tricks = more points
yeah i do that put like it’s only like 300
Oh u meant on the game oops
do some tricklining for combo scores.. haha, idk if thats one singleplayer tho
do a more advanced flip trick with more speed
and rotate during it
you'll get way more than 300
so like a heel flip with a FS 180/360?
Then a grab tweaked without a foot after the flip trick
okay i’m pretty good st those
sorry i have no idea what these words mean
also don't do it on flat, do it when going towards the ramp for the extra air
i mostly just button mash in this game
the extra air will give you a higher multiplier
you should really do the tutorial lol
Sounds like you need to see Coach Frank before anything else
how i win every jam in skate 3 is ollie, button mash, land, session marker. rinse and repeat and by the end of the round i have like 30,000 points
ok also
you can load your session marker and go again
I forgot to mention that
it will add to your total score
that’s what i do but i only have 30 seconds to do it bruv
and it takes like 7 seconds to even go down the mega ramp
in the jams where i rinse and repeat i have a minute thirty
yeah go off the jump once and immediately load your session marker and go off again
bro that’s what i do
L2 and R2 grab your board
the problem is is that i only have 30 seconds
do that and wiggle it around a bit
30 seconds = enough time to do it twice I think? what difficulty are you on
easy
i play all games on easy mode
Oh dang sorry skydiving, I didn't know you were a chick
yeah you can definitely do 2
*skifi
yeah but when i do it twice i only get like 7,000 points bro
how do i pump transitions, when and where do i pump
7000 points for each time?
for doing it twice
how are you only getting 7000 for doing it twice lol
uh huh
you'll get like an instant X3 multiplier
alright
Doesn't really change much but ok 
if you go far enough without landing
i’m a dude
I kept calling u a dude
Gooober
a goobins defined by the urban dictionary is a “super goober”
Lmao
ok so this guy I'm watching is playing super sub optimally and gets like 19k points
yeah i watch that one too
doesn’t he do a super dude and gets like 11,000?
yeah the reason he got so many points is the score multiplier
ok so
he does an ollie AND a grab
so do the grab as well
seriously this would be really easy if you did the tutorial you'd know exactly what kind of thing to do to get some fancy tricks and a ton of points
like if you do everything this guy does and some extra tweaks, turns, etc. you could get over 25k easy
Hey yall
he even lands sketchy and loses a bunch of points from it
it worked omg thanks bro
