Technically Skate 4 will be skate 6 if count skate or die 1 and 2 from EA
Morning gamers
the survey right ?
Not everyone got one
; (
From what I understand, the emails are being rolled out in batches basically, and everyone will get one. You should get one eventually. @wanton badger
i got it tho, but thanks for sharing that with everyone ;D
was thinkin someone got actual beta invites but dont think so today
Oh lol took your sad face as you didn’t get one
was sad for our fallen brothers with no survey mail 
Man I’m stoked for SLS this weekend
Hello 👋
does anyone know on the section where it says in the website “remote,at-home [august 16-30]” does that include windows pc aswell as next gen consoles?
I clicked off it because it said you need next gen xbox or playstation, I don't think it includes pc
Both of those things you guys are referring to is for a Madden playtest
Good morning everyone 
Morning, Thad
How’re you doing today Keen?
I'm doing good, how about you?
I’m doing pretty alright. Just woke up, have another interview this AM so I’m hoping that goes well
Hey, I wish you good luck
Appreciate it immensely 🤙
Morning Thad and good luck man! 
Haha thanks my biggest goal of the day is to get off work and go home asap
Dang so hot you can feel them from the cubicle 😳
Go forth and kill it!

@vale anchor @rare girder
Nothing at all lmao just be at my house and not at work

A legend! 
I am so sorry oh my god
Morning yall
kings
good morning!
skate 7 when?
anyone else shredding this thursday 🤘?
Absolutely bro, can't wait
How’s your trip to London?
Ya
W
👋
So what does that mean like all DLC?
Also, are all play tests only on Next Gen console?
hi nik we’ve missed you !
Did he delete that or did the mods
Is there a questions channel
Alr I’ll just ask here
Wait is there an official EA discord
doing well mate hope your doing well
hows the week been?
What game is the Remote At Home play testing thing for
If you sign up and get invited, you'll find out. (It's not skate. as it's on consoles, and currently skate. playtesting is PC.)
Oh alright, just wish it wasnt just for Next Gen
Considering a lot of ppl prob can’t get their hands on one
This is the official skate. Discord server.
I'm the Global Community Manager, we have some of the awesome devs from Full Circle here - and 36.5K players, community members, and skate. fans.
Alright, thanks
Am I the only one just in complete love with Full Circle's logo ? It's just so nice
It's a cool face made of the F and the C 🙂
Yeah I saw that, it's so well integrated
Any idea which branding agency did it or was it done in house at EA ?
super cool design
In House
Alright!
How did you become the CM on Skate? Did the exec allow employees who are fans of the series to manifest and work on it or were you jsut assigned to it? (I understand if it's private info, I'm just curious how does EA assign people on projects)
Wait so how do u get that game pass add ons thing
Do I just redownload
Ooh did they just change skate 1 on Xbox to Skate. (2007)
Tbh I just can’t wait until Skate. Play test drops on Xbox
I was an admin on the OG Skate 3 forums back in 2011.
Since 2015, I had been the North American Community Manager for the Battlefield franchise.
I moved off Battlefield in 2020 and helped launch Rocket Arena. Then was brought on as CM in Dec 2020. Been a fan since 2007 - been skating since 1985.
Just hope it’s on the Xbox One and not just Next gen consoles
My bad
whats your fav spot to hit for skating?
Wow who would've thought you'd be part of it
No worries! I just made that sticker, so you're the first to get it. 🙂 Congrats!
I became a 3D artist hesitating between working in feature film thanks to Avatar or working in games thanks to Skate 2, ended up going the feature film route but I'm sure there's a parallel universe were I'd have fought to get into EA and be part of this nostalgia trip
Yay! Lol
IRL, I longboard so usually hit up the beach path and cruise there with my pup.
In-game? Idk, honestly. Everywhere is fun in Skate 1-3.
I didn’t know you helped launch Rocket Arena. I actually had a lot of fun with that game. I went crazy with Rev lol
facts for in game. Oh dude the beach path that goes up and down Redondo and Manhattan and all that?
Rocket Arena was fun
The westlake skatepark is pretty good, I prefer the hermosa skatepark I grew up skating there as a kid
I usually start around Alamitos Beach through Rosie’s Dog Beach.
I love dogs.
Mobile skate?
Dogs are better than cats
When does the playtest start?
The playtest only console?
@woeful tulip
Ngl that kinda confuses me still
skate is only testing on pc rn
if you see any other playtests thats not on pc, it isnt skate
there is an old skate on console
ik im saying for testing
I think we all already knew
Thanks for clarification
gotchu
that was me yesterday hah so i totally get it
I know this was asked forever ago but there was an EA-wide Discord that got made at one point but it immediately stagnated because everyone was just kinda talking to themselves about the game they wanted to talk about and there was pretty much no actual discussion, so it may not even exist anymore
It does.
Hello
Has it picked up much?
I’d be willing to rejoin
You’re not going to say “no dude it’s dead” lol sorry
Y’all like carti 🧛🏽?
I’ll check it out
I’m not very active in it as my focus is on this server and [redacted].
hahah
Yeah that’s honestly the problem I had with it, all the games I’d be there to discuss already had their own servers elsewhere with the people I’d want to have those conversations with, and not in that catch-all space. I liked the idea of a publisher-wide spot in concept but in practice it just doesn’t seem to serve a purpose
A Hub with a redirect to all the other game servers would be cool. It's a WIP.
Yeah I just rejoined, I see they have genre-specific channels now which is more segmenting than they had when I was there before, that’s a good step.
I wrote in _skate ideas, but it doesnt show up, did i wrote it wrong or wasn't accepted
didn't quite get how it works; -?
How can i activate skate 3 multiplayer ps3
You have to create a thread.
Click the "Let's Do This" Button.
In the text box, type the NAME of your thread (short, concise idea). Then add some details when prompted.
Now your thread is made. You can add more details by replying IN your thread.
It’s really cool to play skate 3 multiplayer again
How tho
For support, you may want to hit up EA Help at http://help.ea.com or get some community help from https://answers.ea.com/t5/Other-Skate-Games/bd-p/skate-3
Thanks
Ah the curse of the single use multiplayer code still looms 10 years after its discontinuation
Just booted up skate 1 again. Already spend 10 minutes trying to get up some stairs 😂
Ngl iv spent more time on 1 than 3 since I got my series X
Plan b warehouse is still a hot lil hell hole of kickflipping goodness and mctwist Nuggets
Imo tho best thing about skate 1 is start at the top and free roam your way down the city
So many cool hidden spots since nothing is really labled
I still wish/hope one day maybe we see the skate 1 San Van as a visitable place in the new game
That would be cool! It's been such a long time since I've played skate 1 I find so many spots that feel new. Just got that x3 multiplier going again. The sound, colorgrading and feel when you hit that is so awesome
The only thing I don't like about it's the slow motion effect as it can sometimes happen in the middle of a line and kill your flow a bit
Whats up everyone
But yeah the colour grading reminds me of older nfs games that would get vibrant when you nos
Which one is your favourite, Most wanted, Carbon or ProStreet?
Ngl I'm split favourite between 2
Most wanted and shift
Wait was it shift
The one at a large event thing
I think you mean ProStreet? Or The run?
Lemme Google
Yeah
Pro Street, also had some really cool visuals for the tire smoke for it's time
Imo it was a golden era. Just like the Skate games those nfs had the soundtrack on lock. Fitted the game so perfectly and enhanced it immensely. I still listen to the soundtracks of skate 1,2,3 and those games once I a while
I tried the last nfs game the other day tbh
Didn't really like how it felt
The driving doesn't feel right to me anymore and I couldn't adjust steering sensitivity ect so I just couldn't make it work for me
Hi! I’ve been with my family recently in London
I’m doing great
It really good man
How do you get the miracle wip shirt?
For Skate 3, I believe you have to have the park creator DLC and you can use the "dontbesomayo" cheat code. I honestly am trying to remember - it's been a long time.
Thank you so much
For sure.
<@&857720794888273950> Hey y'all -
If you didn't know, you can get 3 Skate 3 DLC for FREE from the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate GPU Drop (until Sept 14 - which happens to be the anniversary of the franchise!)
You can get: the Skate Create Upgrade Pack, Maloof Money Cup 2010 NYC Pack, and Black Box Distribution Skate Park.
awesome
q
epic
that's a dub
on pc gamepass too?
i have never played the black box Skate 3 park
ok sammy dog
i already bought all of them soo
I believe it's all account linked, so you should be able to get it added to your account and it SHOULD show up if you use the Xbox Cloud to stream Skate 3 to your PC.
Same. Three times. LOL
I think I bought the 2 DLC like 2x lmao
Thank u, ngl thought I was getting pinged for some scam lmao
w thanks for the information
hehehe gaming
is it all of the dlc or just some of them
If I ping - it ain't a scam, friendo. 🙂
It's the 3 I mentioned.
oh ok
Do you keep it even if you don’t keep game pass? (Assuming you own the game outside of gamepass)
should do yeah
I THINK - it's an Xbox thing, so I may be wrong - if you add it to your account WHILE you have an active GPU sub, you keep it.
Even if your sub lapses.
I figure you would keep it but idk only one way to find out! Lol
if it works the way most of the other game pass perks do, they'll give you a code you put in the xbox site and it just adds them to your account permanently
Can you explain what the GPU Drop is? Can't seem to find out any info
Went to look at the DLC on Xbox.com (I have Ultimate) and it's still priced
^ same
Scheeeeeeeet!!!!!
https://giphy.com/gifs/agree-nod-head-GeVoaUFScDCUoxHhfJ
I'm assuming it's a game pass perk, so open up the xbox app (or go to game pass on an actual xbox) and it'll probably be in the perks section
lemme get on da app
j
will we ever get custom decals back in skate 3
Probably not
Nothing on the Xbox PC app
not seeing any free dlcs
Found it!
It’s on the Xbox game pass app in perks section
On the Xbox PC app hit game pass on the top left, then hit perks near the middle of the screen
ah! thank you
this is for xbox game pass only isnt it
It’ll give you a redeem code
Yeah he said that in the @
damn
thank you sir
question
does it need to be ultimate?
im on ultimate
Wooo
uhh
LETS GO
Yo thanks for the heads up G
YES SIR
i think you j need regular game pass
So is it on now?
I just got ultimate not to long ago
it available now yeah
Needs to be ultimate since Skate 3 is an EA PLAY title (since EA PLAY is bundled in with Game Pass Ultimate and not Game pass.)
Already claimed 😎
😎
thank you kind sir
Good thing I own all of those 🥲
Has to be ultimate to unlock the Perks pretty sure!
pc game pass or xbox?
Ok why did i get notifyed for no readon
Filmer pack free when? Lol
Maybe next month we can get the rest of the packs
just claimed it on my xbox one s
Huge, but, what about the Hawaiian Dream Pack? lol
I already bought all the dlc but that’s cool for all the people who haven’t got any dlc
Could always share the code with a friend. It's a perk that gives you a code to enter
dope
I know someone who might want the code
Wym code?
Cool
That's how you download it
It's a game pass ultimate perk. When you redeem the perk it gives you a code to enter in the store which redeems the DLC
If you claim the perk you will get a code from it to claim in the mf store
just bought ulimate and got the dlc's but its not showing my dlc's in game
Who pinged me
Joe I think
Regular Gamepass for Xbox does not bundle in EA PLAY nor Gamepass for PC. Gamepass Ultimate includes Gamepass for Xbox and PC, and includes EA PLAY
who pinged me?
braddock saying free dlc for game pass
i just said i got ultimate but i dont have it
i got the perk but its not showing my dlc's in game
oh alr
How dare you
The correct answer is Joe
Joe Mama?
🤝
Did I just waste money on buying all the dlc?😢
How do you get this?
👋
Hello fellow humans.
@crude bridge noic
For skate 3, does anyone know how to get skaters to stop running into me and messing up my lines in challenges like jams for example? It’s quite annoying
👋
Just bought the distribution pack the other day, damnit, lmfao
Just play free mode
hii!!
key word: in challenges
Poo idk
Just keep going... Unfortunately you can't do anything about that
Unless you want to hit them down several billion times
RNG Jesus should bless you eventually
Cant wait for skate
there is no such thing
It's Skate. Like a reboot
Skate is back baby!!!! React if you're STOKED!!!!!!!
i'm stoked but i don't wanna give you the satisfaction
Oh no!
I know it's back but I really want to see it get pushed to 11, even if a live service.
Skate 11 already? sheesh
i'm so excited it's live service. i'd rather have them be updating this game for years and keeping it fresh than dropping it and walking away
Damn, I'm gonna cry in the corner for 1 person not willing to reciprocate the positive energy for a loved series...
Not a reboot. Not a remaster. Not a sequel.
It's the evolution of the franchise, being build by Full Circle, with a focus on respecting the legacy of the franchise while building a future that will go for years.
Rule 17.
Got it, my apologies.
release date
yeah gale, be nice!
please
Sometime
when next playtest come
Of course! I'll be nice, for the sake of SKATE!! It's back baby!!!!
i remember when i made a youtube video saying that the game was gonna be free to play and everyone in the comments roasted me lol
I’m so excited!
then the announcement came
i feel like this is a hidden message
in 2055 (confirmed)
It's not. It's just our "script style" using like 5 fonts. Check the website and stuff. Same thing.
dammit
sorry cant find
do you work on the game?
Can't wait
I'm the Global Community Manager. Yes. I work with the devs on the game.
Do we fans have a say in the games soundtrack? Would really like to hear some punk tracks on this one.
I can't try out the game good luck on devs team working on it
#skate-music-suggestions is where you can suggest songs/artists - but nothing is guaranteed. We haven't discussed what the music options will be yet.
huh exploring mobile i wonder how that’s gonna work
Skate 3 had some amazing songs on it. Punk and hip hop definitely need to be included.
yeah skate 3 had some awesome songs i could never find the same vibe w a playlist of my own while playing the game i really hope they do something similar with this game
I would like the soundtrack to be entirely orchestral and/or ambient noise-folk
I hope we could bring in our own music from like streaming services or local.
Nothing but Mongolian Throat music. BRING ON THE HU!
didn't mean to quote that oh well
how is everyone tonight
good man
Good, good. Welcome, all you leafs to the server! Glad you're here.
hi hi!
hello
super glad to be here (:
jus got back from the skate park there was no one there so it was kinda boring otherwise i’m having a good day
don't mind me i still play guitar hero lol
If that's wrong, I don't wanna be right.
Currently waiting for the mrs to bring a good ol cuppa tea 🇬🇧
If you have a One or Series S/X, you can play Skate 2 right now.
Rock Band > get outta here
no i mean that's my life right now lmao
Better be able to scan my real life board through an app to use it in-game... 👀
(Harmonix pays me to shill Rock Band at every possible opportunity)
what about clone hero
i almost fced closer uc uc so i think i'm getting alright
My condolences (not a jab at Sony, just I'm sorry there's no backwards compatibility)
WHICH IS WHY
skate. will be on One, PS4, Xbox Series S/X, PS5, PC (and maybe mobile) with Cross-Play, Cross-Progression, Cross-platform, Free to Play, no gameplay locked behind paywalls.
We want to remove all the possible barriers so more folks can play - and for a long time.
The community is what makes it better tbh
community is really good
Why do you call it skate if there's already a skate
i’m on pc getting any skate game is a pain
well yeah everyone loves when everything is free, no honor among thieves and all that
Skate on PC with a PS5 controller will go nuts
skate w 144 fps😫
Fr
Because it's... skate. It's not a sequel, not a reboot, not a remaster. (I think I just said this.)
And because "skate." is the name of the game the team is developing, so I call it by its name.
You have a strong point, but isn't it better that at least it's kept alive by people who are not doing it for the money?
Exactly.
Oh so it's not a continuation of the series
thats what im saying
the first skate is called "skate." and the new on is called "skate."
W developers
I so wish Skate 1, 2 and 3 were available on the PS store classic collection.
No, it's the evolution - we don't plan on making another game after this - as we plan on supporting it for years.
Community might just end up calling it skate 4 anyways lmao
Ok thank you I was just curious
sk4te, if you will
it shouldve been called skate 4 
Correction
The first game WAS called Skate.
It's now referred to as Skate (2007) or Skate 1.
Lmao
it has custom song support, and better fps and features, open notes, extended sustains. not really a pirate's alternative
Every skate is just called skate at some point.
"Better" ehhhhhhhh. I see it as standing on the backs of professionals and benefitting from the work of both game developer and musical artist without compensation for any of it. Rock Band is still legally being "kept alive" just fine, even if the console barriers make it difficult to get into it.
customs on gh3pc are a nightmare trust me
What part of "It's NOT a sequel" is missing here? If it had a number, it would be a sequel. It's not.
YOU'RE a sequel
Of his father, perhaps
what would the 43rd skate game be called in 3022? Sk4t3?
Man, i'm having such massive nostalgia right now.
I miss coming home from school or work and just finding a random place to make a line
Oh no, don't get him mad, we're not gonna get skate. then 😰
k
its the worst feeling when you don’t have ur board and u find a sick spot
Lmao I got skate 3 if they shut the severs down again imma cry
they alr renamed skate 1 to skate. (2007) on microsoft store
guess they just now remembered we already have a game Called Skate. so they added the 2007 to the end of it so we don't get confused with Skate.
i always loved getting absolutely smashed by people online and just learning how to do it to others
Still should've had a different name now I gotta call skate 1 skate. 2007
Well adding the (2007) in front of is like what they did with Star Wars: Battlefront
Me
where can i preorder skate 4
Should have gone James Cameron with it and called it Skates
And doom, and tomb raider, etc etc.
Rollerblading in this Skate? hmm
i heard gamefly has it
Can I have my skate 3 character in skate bc I like my legless pitch black red glow hoodie character
Oh yes, you're right!
hi
i haven’t heard of gamefly since 2015
No.
oh my god GAMEFLY
It's pretty much the same naming scheme other franchises have done for years now lol its so annoying
Also I remember wanting gamely when I was 5
pls tell me if we take a nasty slam the character will visibly break/dislocate a bone
They explode like fireworks and then swirl around the city. Perma-death is real.
MK style?
lol
Is there colored grip at least
A fatal bail is a server ban? High stakes.
Then we gotta spend a month in the hospital and even longer recovering at home 💯 💯
yoooooooooooooooo
Why don't you watch the videos (especially the Still Working on It video) on https://youtube.com/skateEA and see what you see.
Pay real money for the hospital bill 😆
pay money to get out the hospital early EA style💯
Frrr the real ea way
Also; the American way!
I have seen it I just like my character
Then when you're done recovering you can't do any tricks and you can barely stand on the board
I think we're onto something
Skate. can have my whole paycheck idc.
I wanna have hunger and thirst meters in skate
Unlock bus drives to get to another part of the map. Bus ticket for a week (days count as real days not ingame days) - 9,99$
Your board broke! Try again tomorrow, the skateshop is now closed. You can call Mike Vallely for 2,99$ and he will bring you a new deck! Keep on grinding!
This guy misses homework
This guy...
Honestly I might get put out for this but I might not sign up for beta testing mostly cause there's going to be no progression in skate.
I also dont mind it being behind a pay wall if the game is free 🤷🏻♂️ 80€ to spend on the coolest cosmetics you want. I'm sure you can build a cool character with that
Nope. You specifically said you miss doing homework
Yes. And bladder. Full Sims status tree.
fr
Have we officially stated that or is that just some assumption you've come up with?
$4.99 To Unlock: Kickflip!
i will pay

YOOOO I played that so much on my DS
its a beta so if they do add progression it most likely won't carry over
When it's ready
It was said in the board room, but I know its not the developers call its EA.
Tomorrow I believe
2 mins get ready
Are you cuz haha
Lol
my buddy eric did this trick
Like literally every game.
cameras weren’t on sadly
I’m looking at skate 3 on the store and it says I need to pay for the dlc still. I do have ultimate so I’m confused
You KNOW this? Interesting.
Contact Xbox Support for help.
My friend got skate 3 on his xbox for 1 euro
What else do you know 
The only one I've seen carry over is Battlefield 4's beta progression, nothing else
hi
The gta 6 release date
It's on another tab. Where you find the extras you get with ultimate not on the game page. It's where you can find the extras like free nitro and free pack for fall guys and that kind of stuff
Sorta, but not like.. everything. I think there was a level cap in the Beta too, so it wasn't like you could get Rank 50 during the Beta to carry over.
i think it was like 30
Yes, it capped out at level 10, so IF there is progression, maybe a little carry over? 😉 We'll see!
So many years ago - and I was busy working on Battlelog at the time.
How do I redeem it? I’m on the dlc thing on the Microsoft store but it’s saying I still have to pay for it
I would recommend contact https://support.xbox.com (as I have no details on how their store works other than "Click, pay, done."
If there's an issue - they may be able to give you info.
Go to the PERKS part of game pass
Ohhhhh. Okay thanks
Okay now I see it. Thank you so much/gen
Halo o/ 😄
My messages r deleting
whats up my skaters
Your in MY house now STCKR!!!
Because you tried to ping everyone
Lol
who got the steeziest 360 flip
I've been waiting for this opportunity for so long lol
Okay now the pack is downloading. Once again thank you so much Sky
Good stuff Sky!
Awesome!!! Have fun! Happy it worked easy for you 
Ya. When ya said go to perks I realized that I was dumb lol
Because I’ve used some perks before (Spotify premium and discord nitro perks go BRRRR)
Anyone accepted into the pre-alpha?
Aye I made it into the pins lol (sorta)
If they were, they couldn't talk about it. NDA.

I cant use emojis from other discord chats?
this sucks
i mean it makes sense
Well... some people can make some pretty inappropriate emojis...
Omg I just saw the pride flag skateboards- that makes me so happy
Nah, this is an official Discord for the skate. franchise. You can use Discord emojis (the default ones) or you can use the emojis we have built.
fair
I mean i pay for nitro
so i thought id be able to
i only use funny and wholesome reacts
strawberry frostys are so good oml
w fries?
Sadly trolls pay for nitro too and it goes real bad real quick
😦
Now you can use the emojis from here in other servers haha
I do it often. heheh.
ly*
anyone like palace clothes?
will the next skate game have skateboards
do we think palace and supreme will be in skate "4"
Just filled out a little something something, looking forward to hopefully get into the playtests! Also, hey everyone, I'm Chris, 29y/o from Germany\o/
No, because there is no Skate 4.
low key i want some true band like flip old volcom
crazy how i put it in ""
Crazy how you felt it necessary to include it at all. But here we are, crazy.
lol
i wish i was as cool as ypu brad
why did I get pinged?
tree related business
skatemboard
love when mods feel like making there general public feel stupid
i hate trees!!! 😡😡😡
how unkind
Okay thank you whoever deleted that.
Contact ea support would they really help me with the old game?
nyoom
WHO here loves skate developers
Are we allowed to have our own views on 🏳️🌈
I think
Love is a strong word, I would say I like them, however I haven't interacted with them enough to be able to form an opinion on that matter. So I'll decline to comment.
has anyone done the playtesting stuff
I mean you can go try instead of asking Brad haha
when will you be able to playtest on pc
I’m scared to talk to ea
Bein homophobic is against the server rules bruh
via the EA app probably
yes but homophobia/transphobia isn’t allowed
ok
I love all peoples fr
You can have your own opinion, you're entitled to it and you can keep it to yourself 👍
What is fr?
because through the webpage it just says you need "next gen consoles xbox x or s ps5
for real
for real
lol
never said that for me
I’m a kid and don’t like talking to adults on phone!!!
everyone typing for real
you don't have to talk to people on phone though?
Oh makes sense. I was thinking it would be short for France or something haha
Also, if you're a kid and under 13, then you're not allowed to have a Discord account yet.
The playtesting pages include other games, any console tests coming up are for Madden
I’m gonna contact ea so I can sign in and play skate 3
Skate. playtests are only PC for now
You can just use the support ticket function
i’m 12🥺🥺🥺
and therefore too young for Discord.
im 16
this chat is terrible rn lol
I’m 15
I was doing the survey and it asked if I was in the discord server but I wasn’t so I decided to join but I took too long and now the survey reset
Entire servers can be shut down if they’re known to have users under 13.
It’s rare but possible.
What if they can’t find a solution
They can.
They're EA support after all.
well, if it's not to their knowledge and if they literally are unable to do anything about it (they can make alts and join back) then I doubt they'd be punished. Especially a verified server like this one.
i got pinged 😠
Free dlc mate, free Skate stuff, best kind of ping
WHERE
well you are a dog after all, lucky you didnt get whistled
give me please
joe mama
Joe mother
I'm in mid 30's most play on PC & PS4/xbox one
Check the Perks page if you have gamepass ultimate you can get a skate 3 pack
hi
Hi!
👋 sup
Hello ladies and gentlemen
hi
no
No
We skating?
oh my bad i see now
so there are currently no playtests for skate atm?
its not showing up on my end
Just PC, not sure when exactly those are
I thought there was one coming up for console when I was looking at the website?
The playtesting pages include other games, any console tests coming up are for Madden
I just applied for an xbox x/s and ps5 play test the 16th to the 30th
Madden.
Was for skate.
No, it's not. Currently, playtesting for skate. is on PC.
Other platforms will come later.
Nothing on the page and the link said Madden. The link I clicked was labeled skate so 🤷 guess I shouldn't expect anything less from EA.
Which impacts your chances of playing other play tests if you don't. Nice.
No, it doesn't.
Says on the sign up page it does.
Pretty sure it said it didn't
Most early access test flights impact your chances if you don't take place in the ones your selected for. If they select you for Madden and you don't play it will impact your chances of getting other tests. I read it twice.
hm
That's if you get selected and don't play it. The simple solution is to play for the minimum amount of time, being 20 minutes a day.
The worst punishment
"I hereby sentence you to 100 hours of madden."
Nothing on it suggests it's for Skate guys haha
Clearly yall did something wrong😂
Can you provide the link where you saw this?
Here's the Legal Pre-Release Terms of Service: https://tos.ea.com/legalapp/PRFA/US/en/closed/
Except the email from skate, talking about play testing skate.
hello braddock
Yo.
wuss good with you bro?
i guess the madden playtest is kind of like afree for all and averyone can sighup. The email you got from skate IS the survey for a CHANCE for you to get the playtest dont get the two mixed up like me lol
i guess when the survey is through itll appear in the playtest like madden
I see a lot never read boxes and terms
In 48hrs or so, the gifs I made should show up in gif search 
I feel bad for the person that's appointed to read the terms and conditions of things.
When I worked in TOS, I had section 6 memorized verbatim.
hey sky im show something in dm
Recite it.
You know that I could literally just copy paste it, right? LOL
Also, that was like 7 years ago.
For some reason I have section 9 remembered...
howdy
aw man no outside emotes? sad
FOR THOSE CONCERNED:
Our Playtests should always have a game name in the name of the playtest under "Playtests Available."
Right now, if you go to the site - you see "skate. Insider Playtesting Signup" which is for a survey (asking about your platforms - PC, Xbox, PS, or mobile).
THE OTHER ONE is for Madden.
I talked with the Playtesting folks - if you did sign up for the Madden one thinking it was for skate. - don't worry. It will NOT impact your future chances for skate. playtesting. (I confirmed with the Sr. playtesting person right now on Slack.) That being said - only sign up for playtests you want to play and will play and will provide feedback for. You get invited more if you actually do the playtest and give feedback. But again, for the Madden one (that doesn't say Madden), if you signed up but don't play, don't worry this time.
SO - friends - if you register to be a skate. Insider - please remember: skate. Playtests will SPECIFICALLY SAY "skate. Playtest" etc. in the name.
In fact - to avoid confusion, we're removing the Madden Survey from there right now, so it won't be visible.
I have a serious question. But I don’t think I can ask it in here. Can a mod DM me?
You can DM <@&857703195560509511>.
I mean we can't talk too hard about the play tests here (just very vague generalizations) if we get in right?
You can't talk about them at all.
NDA - Non-Disclosure Agreement.
I understand that, just confirming how hard the NDA is.
what play tests?
Thanks G.
Off topic, but how did I only find out about the official skate discord now???
This is so cool
It's a legally binding agreement.
https://tos.ea.com/legalapp/PRFA/US/en/closed/
I understand the legalities and things
I wish you guys were at the Redwood City campus. So we could hang out. I’m always at the madden football field. 😞
Just some can be lighter on what can and can't be disclosed
Have you tried reading it?
There is Full Circle graffiti on Kaleidoscope in Bf2042
Is that the only full circle easter egg? It's in the small plaza area next to a1/a2
Yep.
how are ppl playing skate alr
No other maps?
Just read it.
I've read it through, so I take we could only talk about what's currently publicly available. And not what is behind closed doors
Early access
hello
That's the idea ye
ah
You can signup on the website, I really hope I’m lucky enough to get a code
You may not share, publish, disclose, distribute, transmit, post or make available, directly or indirectly, Confidential Information to any third party, until EA publicly releases the product(s) or content you are reviewing.
Basically, you can't say peep until the game launches.
I got early access to the rust console beta awhile ago and that was fun
is there a way to get into the beta or do i just wait?
Just sign up and wait
Sign up and wait
i signed up like 2-3 months ago lol
alr thx ive been signed up for 2 mohts
We wait till the sun explodes or earlier
months
we do a little waiting
It’s like 100% luck based if you’re not a content creator
Question about skate. Is there any plans to bring it to the steam deck?
Which phase is the game? Alpha, beta, pre...
pre-pre-pre alpha
im an artist with over 2 mil streams across all streaming platforms does that count as content lol
Like essentials is pretty much it
It's probably pre pre alpha now... But who knows
Steam deck is a pc
And it's coming to pc
Idk, I’m kinda just assuming
The only question is will the game support proton
Probably
The issue is. Steamdeck is Linux. So it would need proton compatibility
I’m pretty sure some games aren’t supported on steamdeck
And even if it doesn't support proton, you can just install windows
I’m not 100% but I think I’ve heard something about that
guys be serious about skate
Being a content creator has nothing to do with it.
If skate works on the deck I have no question it'd run well
Thanks for clarifying, some companies do that but some don’t so I wasn’t sure
Anyone else……feel worried about the whole “free to play” and micro transaction thing?
When will get a new video of gameplay
When we do
It's not going to kill it
Wait it’s gonna be free to play?
There may be specific playtests in the future we're looking for certain types of playtesters, but everyone has the same chance.
why cant i just buy a carbon copy for 65$
Nope
10 years probably
yeah, I played a lot of Halo Infinite, and that didn't work too well for it
Well bringing a game to steam deck is a thing. Native Linux
Apparently………
gross
Doesn't need to be native Linux
I mean F2P live service is fine if it's good
I’d prefer it.
Which it should be
If it’s a F2P why whine
I hope offline is a thing you can do though.
I get all the micro transactions but normally a lot of F2P games have an option for you to buy all of the optional stuff for like $50-$60
the question is, when is it really good? Specially when a previously paid game/franchise goes F2P, specially from big publishers like Microsoft or EA
You wouldn't
Most Linux ports are an afterthought
Most Linux native games run worse on the steam deck than the windows version running under proton
huge doubt
Fr
I mean it's up to EA and full circle
I have a steamdeck. And 99% or steam games are unplayable
I will be downloading all the skate 3 addons tho i just 100% the game last week...again
What we've shared in the Board Room is just a bit of info. There's a lot more info to come. Hang loose.
I've had a steam deck since first wave and only a single game has not worked for me
That includes non-steam games I've added myself
I was one of the first to get a deck kek
Hi
I’m talking about without tinkering. I would like a seamless experience. I’ve gotten most games I’ve wanted to play to work.
I haven't had to tinker with the majority of games I've played
That’s the thing…….it’s not free to play if you have to pay a ton of money to get stuff anyway, instead of just paying one fee ONCE and have access to everything(except maybe a few dlcs like in skate 3)
Hello 👋
exactly
That's definitely a unrealistic look at the Steam deck.
How are you
Excited, you?
Im curious how many fellow skaters pursued comp sci
I don’t think a seamless experience for skate would be unrealistic. SkaterXL has one
Good Why y you’re excited
I mean I have
same here
same
hi btw
same
I hope to get into pre-alpha early access
Yo
And also…………. It just……. Reeks of………..”EA SPORTS, FOR THE GAME (actually for the money but WE DON’T TALK ABOUT THAT!!)”
Playing Halo Infinite made me realize I'd much rather pay 60$ over playing it for free but being unable to unlock 72% (literally 72%) of the items because they're locked behind a paywall
for real
What if you don't have to pay a ton because gameplay isn't locked behind paywalls, and MTX is cosmetics focused.
Obviously, it's fair to have some concerns, but hang tight for more info so you don't stress yourself out.
i dont think anyone is stressed
Believe in the full circle gods to eventually bless us in a really good F2P game.
Nope, I don’t expect anything………I can’t be bothered
Is there any thing new in the game that is only For Next-Gen
"EA sports, if it's in the game... it's in the game" and man, there a lot of ppl who dont skate lookin to make money off skaters... thats the game
keep expectations low and youll never be let down
I’d prefer if the game was f2p and had regular cosmetics and premium cosmetics.
Braddock aside from herding the masses a lot lately how is your day going
Don't want season passes though
as long as there isnt a 10$ fee to unlock the Gonz
that'd be awesome, so I'd love if Skate. turned out to be F2P while maintaining an actually good level of content quality and not require you to pay for most items.
🤌🏿👍🏿
I just have my concerns about it
hey if the f2p sucks dont play and send EA a message where it means the most, the bank
Special skate event passes maybe, but nothing $5 for that.
knowing how modern gaming is, I have concerns about every game nowadays
I feel like people who get lost in this hand wringing forget how much damn grinding (no pun intended) it took to unlock “ALL” the items in old games
Paying for the game is good but having to pay for more things in the game is wrong
Same
tony hawks 1+2 was a standard buy so i dont see why new skate needs any sort of subscriptions
What comes from those passes should come into the normal game.
Knowing how much Diablo Immortal earned I am afraid that more companies are gonna focus on microtransactions
Everything premium should eventually become available to free players
Alrighty.
make a shirt that says that
Bold choice. LOL
Inside the game and out
I believe.
I believe in Braddock supremacy. 🙇♂️
I gotta schedule my tat appointment this weekend so I can have it done by Sept 14.
Haven't let us down yet tbf
It would be great
👍
This community is going to groooooow
Put it in #announcements when you get it, it's that important and I don't wanna miss it
People who gripe about the game being free also don’t realize how global gaming is now, and how much more accessible free games are to regions where the economy and exchange rates don’t align with the costs of the old methods of game pricing
What would you guys think if they had legacy skaters in the game? Like bob burnquist? Kareem Campbell?
please bro, yes
There was an EA game released last year for $20 which was absolutely lambasted for daring to cost anything, largely from places where “$20” is worth much more than $20
Just give me the gonz and lance mt
I live in a country where a AAA game costs 25% of a minimum wage at launch, but I'd still rather pay for a polished experience than have a half-baked "constantly-evolving live-service" game with tons of microtransactions

Same, cause you’re still going to pay more in a free to play game anyway, Than if you just got a polished game like you said….for a one time fee
like brazil, which economically can't support current consoles to begin with.
slappy better be in new skate
Intankavel
thats exactly where im from
That makes me feel old as hell lol
And if this game is “polished” but sustained by continued cosmetic additions? Or are you just not going to believe that’s possible and will call whatever we get “half-baked” because of the “live-service” buzzword?
I read this and I agreed. But then I remembered when i was 13, the first day GTA V came out and litteraly ran around the house collected change to get the last $10 I needed to pay the standard $60. People will buy if its worth the buy, best selling game ever.
That's not to say I still don't agree btw.
this.
I am also lol.
Same.
I think an important part to remember is that there's a spectrum of micro transaction formats - it's not just "Fortnite or Elden Ring". I'm assuming they'll make their money off mostly cosmetic stuff, possibly a season pass, but you won't really miss out on anything if you don't get it, and DLC will eventually be released to the public anyway
The biggest thing I'm not a big fan of with the additive cosmetics and live service stuff is that it's far to easy to have a mediocre game with what would have been standard stuff stripped out for big cash. Fallout76/etc
well, thats where it comes down to what you believe. You can believe that everything is gonna be beautiful, the game is gonna be very well developed, free-to-play, live-service, with microtransactions playin a small role in it. I just don't. To be fair, I even used to, until a few months ago when another franchise I love released a new game they promised would be so good and not microtransaction-abusive.
Bad way to look at it.
"Legacy skaters like Bob Burnquist" just made my lower back hurt
It shouldn't be exclusive forever, it eventually needs to end up in everyones hands.
The arthritis in my knees from falling too much while skating in the 1980s has flared up.
Any plans for skate. Battle Royale mode... @dull pilot
if there's something I hate more than excessive amounts of microtransactions, it's FOMO, hope this game doesn't feature a lot of it
I would like to see skate be spread to mobile devices. Like Asus ROG phone. It has a good mobile cpu and 16gb of ram. Or M1 IPADs
It's understandable to have that opinion because of where the industry's at atm, but you gotta have a bit of faith man. This game is being developed almost exclusively for/by the old skate loyalists - they won't dog us too hard
We’re looking at mobile.
I know, I'm not pre judging the game, I'm just sharing my main concernes about it. Even tho it's hard to have faith when gaming industry deceive you over and over.
Stadia/android/IOS/xcloud support would be insane for inclusivity.
Mobile would definitely need cutting down graphics, and creating a mobile control scheme
battlefront would like to have a word
And the fact you can Bluetooth connect controllers to mobile devices is a bonus.
@dull pilot who gets the call on the PS > everything else crossplay on launch? I know Sony charges a premium to allow their players to crossplay with other platforms - do you guys budget for that or does that come from higher up?
im really excited to see the parkour aspect to skate.
League of legends managed to bring their game to mobile with minimal corner cutting graphically. Phones/tablets are in a great place. Also with the backbone/razer Kishi and Logitech working in a mobile controller also
Again Brazil has a decent if still slightly older/weaker hardware smartphone market.
Folks much higher on the food chain than me.
Yea true. I’m from Jamaica so I understand.
Do you know if you'll enable Proton support so Linux users will have an easy time playing (steam deck)
All I can say is what has been publicly announced.
😩
I'm a American, understanding world economic issues.
That is a good point, except look at the size of Star Wars. Skate has a cult following, Star Wars is a money machine
And the profit is pretty huge.
Skate was very much "if you got into it you love it" situation.
Star wars was just "you'll get it regardless".
i think skate is a pretty huge game, they arent making it for pennies worth of profit
This
Yeah thought as much
Some community outreach bonus points for you - if you get Skate 3 on PS5 I'll send you chocolates and flowers every Valentines Day until one of us dies
i have skate 3 on my xbox
Mobile has the biggest market in the gaming industry. The mobile market+maybe a game pass perk deal would allow some amazing freedoms for the devs
That scares me
its the unfortunate truth
@dull pilot if you get me Skate 3 on PS5 OR this dude's xbox, the same offer applies
I actually have a couple of extra Xbox Ones laying around. Maybe a giveaway some time?
Hi folks, long time no see
Xbox 360 costs like 50 bucks kek
I love you
I wouldn't mind an xbone I won't lie
Shotgun on the bonus entires
Is skate 3 available on ps5?
Can you giveaway to another continent😬 😬 😬
No it isn't, Braddock is giving us all xbones though
Sadly no
No
No backwards compatible from PS3 on PS4/PS5. Sorry.
sad
Blame Sony for that one
rip playstation users, PS3 era was elite
Xbone was the generation I missed lol
x360/PS3 era >>>>>>
Is that supposed to be like a wishbone? 
real
But he said “if you get me skate 3 on ps5” so was just confused🤣
Nah I don't like games overdone with insane yellow bloom and immense motion blur
halo 3
did someone @ everyone?
Halo, Skate, Rainbow Six Vegas, Skyrim, GTA 4/V
LOL
Good times
Rainbow six vegas wow i forgot how much i played
nothing tops that
No, I tagged Xbox players re: Game Pass Ultimate giving out DLC for Skate 3.
oh bet!
You were probably part of @ Xbox alert for the game pass Perk drop announcement
Too slow, I was
Might go try and yoink that
I’ve been at the exact same place in skate 3 for 10+ years. When I log in. The underpass.
such a great game, im happy that R6S doesnt fall behind
my discord always tells me I got mentioned but never highlights the message lmao
thanks for telling me guys
You can always check your inbox for pins/mentions
It’s so weird that you don’t automatically go to the message that tagged you. Very annoying.
@sacred wagon click the little message box top right of discord, it will usually show you where it came from with a time stamp
Indeed
Cya!
You can search for messages that mention roles, unfortunately you need to know which role was mentioned first
see ya!
@sour tartan @dull pilot @vale anchor thank you!
We try
I logged in this morning. Haven't this afternoon.
I wish I had an Xbox 360 handy
It's at a buddy's house
And even then I have to repair my controller :(
Did skate 3 get a next-gen patch on Xbox one like some other 360 games did?
I know morrowind got a 4k patch
yeah i been playing for the past two months at least
That doesn't answer my question
I know it's backwards compatible
im not sure than sorry bud
I'm not sure but I know it looks pretty good on my series X even though it's running through the 360emulation software native on the xbox
this
its still very fun
anyone else ever feel the need to christ air off everything?
It looks like for Xbox one x it gets a resolution and 60fps enhancement
Doesn't look like that enhancement is available for one s
I wonder if skates soundtrack is finalized or will it also be part of a live service. Or maybe both. Offline finalized but online play streaming maybe
i hope i can make the sound track 0% vol so i can play my own music, *goldfinger and LTJ queues up
New music licensing in games is one of my biggest annoyances, so many great soundtracks get games taken down or have the songs removed
Music service integration is always nice
best part of the games, dont get me wrong the sound tracks are good but 30 or so songs gets repetitive
Have you seen the 25th anniversary release of "Goldfinger" by Goldfinger? Apparently, they got Avril Lavinge to sing with John on "Here in Your Bedroom".
No but i will have to now
i'm hoping that with a larger budget they can get licenses to more songs over time, kind of like nba 2k does
It sounds... okay. Honestly.
I would've loved it to be the singer from Chase Long Beach, or someone who was more punk/ska than pop punk, but it's alright.
even with a budget im sure they will add songs over time since it will have updates and this will be their last skate game
One of my favorite gaming moments was the skate 1 demo skating to, sister Nancy - bam bam, over and over again.
Iconic
sank so many hours into that demo in middle school. had to buy skate used after mowing lawns
eventually... not immediate
so older premium styles eventually become free
or goal based
On this note, are their plans for optimisation for the Steam Deck in the future? Would be a fantastic device to explore 🙂
All I can share is the info in #frequently-asked-questions-and-more at this time.
I just read your ‘I can only say what is publicly announced’ nvm 🤣
Steam Deck isn't equivalent to a mobile phone, power wise maybe comparable but still the x86 vs ARM ecosystem is pretty different.
I rather not have a gaming phone just to play Skate.
True that is true 🙂
SkaterXL is amazing on steamdeck. So if skate is supported it will be amazing.
Maybe if we ask enough times between with both of us it’ll be classed as a frequently asked question 😉
has any one ever kick fliped under a rail while your body goes over, in game?
What do you think should be the minimum device playable for skate on mobile
I want playyyyy so bad
I think recent 6xx, 7xx, and 8xx snapdragons should be the testing range for that. But they also need to check and optimize ARM Mali graphics enabled phones, such as the surprisingly popular (relatively) Pixel 6.
Or any Exynos processor really.
I think as long as it isn’t scaled down so extensively to support a larger market (read: older gen phones) then that’s a win
hello
6GB of RAM i'd say would be the playable minimum.
That’s completely rational and reasonable tbh.
Do you think it will be like the mortal kombat mobile where it just unlocks cosmetics in the main game
I’m thinking it will be the full game on mobile
So you mean to tell me I spent money on dlc when I could’ve waited for the anniversary drop? 😤
I hope so, i hate quick and cheaply made watered down ports.
I mean, I guess?
GTA San Andreas 😂
Which one lol
That game has been ported so many times and almost none of them are good without mods lol
Every single port 😂
The worst one was the iOS port to console. Recently
Yeah
I pre ordered the ps4 physical version
I have a ps5 tho so I was assuming there was gonna be a cheap ps5 upgrade
Nope
With how mobile games are looking as of late this game should be great ported to mobile.
I'm stuck with the ps4 version
If it is handled with care.
