When do I get to test skate 4 on ps4 been here waiting for like a year

[rancid timber]

Question 8 in #frequently-asked-questions-and-more should help you there

Eyyyyyy I got the role

[exotic beacon]

A lot of answers could be summed up with the Mac os spinning beach ball

[hidden bronze]

Welcome to the Blue Team! 💙

[rancid timber]

Ok, I've just seen a video of a guy in Buddhist monk robes and flip flops doing a 360 Pop Shuvit, which I didn't know I needed in my life

Gigachad

[solid stirrup]

Lmao, random stuff like that is great

[icy pilot]

its the ones who ride barefoot who get me, free chiropodist appointments while you skate 😂

[sudden warren]

Good morning skaters!

[violet tapir]

[sudden warren]

William I miss ya. What ya been up to?

[violet tapir]

Just been busy working man! Also playing Jedi survivor 😅 need to get back on the content grind

How you been man?

[sudden warren]

I feel that. Same here man. Just working and feel like I've had no time after work to chilllll but slowly getting things done lol

[vale anchor]

Still working on that game myself. Trying to 100% everything on my first go

[scenic gull]

Hahah i think that would be so epic if next month, Full Circle dropped a trailed that said, “We,re still working on it… Still”

[scenic gull]

That would be good I don't want this rushed like every EA game maybe EA wont mess up this time

[scenic gull]

Somehow EA has been doing real well to Full Circle! Must be their hands off approach?

[sudden warren]

Between the board rooms and the mods mentioning it, they won't be rushed at all. They don't want to $%^# it up (per Cuz) and they don't have any deadlines/timelines.

[gloomy magnet]

For those of you wanting to grab Skate 3 Digitally that don’t already have it. It’s available digitally for 3.99 on sale right now on the Microsoft store.

[waxen apex]

I love this

[strange loom]

ah yes, the latest addition to the Skate. Cinematic Universe (SCU) Coach Frank's character arc. From petty coach to Chairman of the 'Board, his tale is one for the ages

[waxen apex]

😂

How's everyone doing today?

[pallid blade]

I'm doing good thanks, im playing minecraft beta rn and later ill be going for some skate 3 clips. what you up to?

[waxen apex]

Gonna work on mixing a song, then I'm going to my last class for this semester.

[pallid blade]

ooooh nice!

[tribal notch]

Goooooooooooodd I’m just currently finding some unused stuff in other games so I can put it in tcrf articles

I was able to find a cool unreleased game cover from a defunct site

[waxen apex]

Now that's cool

[tribal notch]

I kinda would like to show it but I don’t think I can

[waxen apex]

If its unreleased, dont show it in this server. I think that would count as a leak and leaks of any kind arent allowed here.

[dull pilot]

Bingo

[cobalt dust]

[waxen apex]

Fun game

[sudden warren]

[cobalt dust]

i love it lol

[sudden warren]

Lmaooo

[dull pilot]

What game? You can get Skate 1 and 3 via Xbox Game Pass.

[sudden warren]

And skate 2 via disc 💪

Lol

(I'm a 21st century physical boy)

[gleaming peak]

hello family

[drowsy mesa]

good afternoon champ

[cobalt dust]

hi nik

[marble flame]

hi nik T1C3 & hurt

[drowsy mesa]

sah dude

[gleaming peak]

hi tice

[gleaming peak]

hi, check ur dm bro. I gifted u something

[drowsy mesa]

yerrrrr

[sudden warren]

i don't get Nik gifts :/

[scenic nova]

lol it says on jeffs account he's playing Skate CPT

idk if that's meant to be there or not

[sudden warren]

He has an eternal invite to the playtest he mentioned that the other day. Plus it says 19,000 days lmao

[waxen apex]

That's funny

[marble flame]

yo T1C3 you been editing on your realistic clips?

[drowsy mesa]

I been trying to figure how to edit again lol I think I gave up lol

[marble flame]

Look up on YouTube ''Skate 3 Film School - Fisheye Follow Lines'' it will helps

trust

[cobalt dust]

hi ygk

[sudden warren]

Time to eat and watch an Adio promo DVD lol

[scenic gull]

Have a nice meal

[carmine arch]

what up chat

[marble flame]

hi hurt what did you eat today?

[cobalt dust]

i had one quesadilla for breakfast, i had no idea what to eat lol

im eating lunch soon and i’m thinking about a chicken sandwich

[marble flame]

Rock Adio?

[marble flame]

quesadilla is fire wow

[sudden warren]

Yup lmaoo

It's epic already

I definitely owned this back in the day.

[marble flame]

you're so lucky ngl I wish I collected dvd skate videos

[sudden warren]

I didn't, but I snagged this on ebay for cheap

[marble flame]

ohhhh!

[sudden warren]

I do wish I had more though like you're saying

[dull pilot]

It's because I have my EA account linked with my Discord account through the EA app. (Team is aware it's showing.)

[waxen apex]

It shouldn't be surprising an EA employee is playing the game. You are part of the Skate team whether you're a dev making the game or not.

[hidden bronze]

Morning everyone!

[ocean agate]

Issa skate game who don’t wanna play it lol

[cobalt dust]

[scenic gull]

prolly people who dont wanna play it idk

[dull pilot]

Especially the CM for the franchise.
How can I guide the community if I don't know the game?
(This is how I convince my wife I need new consoles. "Babe, it's 'for work'."
heheh

[waxen apex]

Agreed haha

[hidden bronze]

Good point 😂

[scenic gull]

thats a life hack right there i gotta use that

[dull pilot]

The only “drawback” - I have to buy all the games she wants to play. (She likes action adventure, so Uncharted and Horizon Zero Dawn are top plays).

She doesn’t even buy games. I buy them on my account and gameshare.

And she’s a PS person. I’m more PC/Xbox. So… duplicate games all the time (except for exclusives)

[hidden bronze]

I used to be a PS kid
Then I got an Xbox One in 2015, and my focus shifted 😂

Sometimes I wonder if things would’ve been different had I got a PS4 that year

[scenic gull]

i used to be an xbox kid, then i got a proper gaming pc in 2018, then i got a ps5 in 2020. and now i play both instead of xbox

since upgraded my pc to be much better than it was before and honestly it handles everything i need it to. pc for competitive shooters/multiplayer games/xbox cloud streaming skate. ps5 for everything else

[hidden bronze]

That’s sweet
I haven’t even had the chance to play PC much

I don’t even own one

[scenic gull]

trust me its worth just building a pc for like $600 or so

🙏 especially if you go used, you can beat the ps5 in terms of performance for only about $500

[sudden warren]

I was PS, kinda still am, but for yearsss my groups have been mainly on xbox. But I use all mediums to game.

[scenic gull]

i still have my old xbox one that i just use in order to play thps1+2 online, because thats seemingly the most active platform for online at the moment

[hidden bronze]

I kept my PS3 for agggeesss
Only sold it in 2020/2021 for about $300/$400 AUD

That was with like about 100 games

[scenic gull]

everyone saying the thps1+2 servers are down, but they're not. you just need an open nat type on your router and you'll be good

[sudden warren]

They are down for certain consoles.

Having to do something like that is not natural

[scenic gull]

i mean

your nat type should ideally be open for most online gaming, microsoft and sony both state that

[sudden warren]

But to change router settings no. Xbox setting are usually default open from what I know. Which means most routers are.

Xbox one servers are down, XBSeries version servers are not

[scenic gull]

my xbox said my nat type was open but checked my own router settings, in the router it was set to strict

hotspot method has worked for my friends playing on xbox one

[scenic gull]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/2QtrTn this is a rig one of my friends built recently. after tax, it came out around $650 for him

[sudden warren]

Yea I've heard the same about hot spot, but that is also such a pain.

[scenic gull]

i mean, it takes like 30 seconds to set up really

[sudden warren]

Wish they'd do something but i think we are too far gone

[scenic gull]

i wouldnt exactly call it a pain rather than a small nuisance

its still dumb that the servers are like this but imo it isnt as big of a deal as people are making it out to be

[sudden warren]

I say pain because then you go back after your thps session to another game

[scenic gull]

the servers arent down but they are certainly broken

i've gotten into a few games on pc very recently

[sudden warren]

For arguments sake and to all the casuals... it is 'down'.

[scenic gull]

in big air quotes, yeah

the servers are very temperamental currently

if one person leaves, the whole session is likely gonna disconnect which isnt great

it's in a state of limbo. its working but only for some people but even then it still isnt fully working

i just stick to thugpro

[vale anchor]

If only she was an XBOX person haha. That family sharing with Ultimate is such a nice deal. But even we have a PS4 just for those specific games you mentioned (and spider-man). Other than those, everything is on Xbox/PC pass for the game sharing and allowing us to play together on different consoles for the price of one subscription

[vague arch]

whats goodie

[scenic gull]

we need mo bamba in skate

[dull pilot]

She doesn't like the shape of the Xbox controller.

[vale anchor]

O.o

Interesting. I find the shape of the PS4 to be uncomfortable. PS3 was my fav of the PS controllers

[hidden bronze]

I find both shapes comfortable

[sudden warren]

Have a great night my people! Tomorrow is another skateable day

[languid flax]

same here but it's moreso a matter of weight

feels like a proper brick in the hands ps3 is like an angels feather

xbox controllers are alright but theyre still a little on the weightier side so i havent bothered as much with finding xb controllers for stuff i play on pc

even though theyre WAY better supported

[vale anchor]

For me it's because I have tiny hands

[languid flax]

also valid and i think same

[tawny gorge]

i own all consoles and can say i prefer an xbox controller for skateboarding games

[scenic gull]

i hate all the dualshocks. idk but they all feel uncomfortable. i love the dualsense though. same layout but the ergonomics are wayyyy better

[scenic gull]

depends on the game. for stuff like skate, skater xl and session. the xbox controller is better imo. but for tony hawk. the ps controller is way better imo

[craggy stump]

gimme skate

[waxen apex]

You're not gonna get it sooner than anybody saying that almost every day.

You're just being annoying.

[mint island]

I’m really curious how the game will play with a mouse and keyboard. Nothing has been publicly shared on that yet?

[waxen apex]

Nope

[pallid blade]

I think if they do do M&K they would make it kind of like the Skate IT DS controls, like you have to draw the line with your mouse

[mint island]

I was thinking this would be the way to do it. Maybe holding space while moving the mouse will activate the flick it style of controls. Releasing space could activate the action. That way you could still move the camera while not holding space.

[ocean agate]

Yea but them people just don’t exist so yk

[tribal notch]

Hello

[gleaming peak]

Hi

[hidden bronze]

Hello!

[vale anchor]

What's good on this fine day?

[hidden bronze]

Nothing much

Just about to head to sleep
I’ve got a date tomorrow!

[vale anchor]

Oh nice! Hope it goes well and you get the sleep you need to make the day great!

[hidden bronze]

Absolutely! Just a simple lunch date, nothing major, but I’m hoping it goes well!

[sudden warren]

Good morning! And good luck I hope it goes well!

[tepid moon]

If you swich between discs do you need to start a new save or not

[sudden warren]

Negative

Saves are not kept on the discs, but the actual hardware.

[tepid moon]

Because the skate 3 disc i have is from the essentials boxes wich look ugly and i want a normal one

[sudden warren]

Haha yea you'll be fine. Just make sure you save your game and don't turn anything off mid save or else it'll corrupt the file.

[tepid moon]

Nah i always wait for it to save

[sudden warren]

Cool you're good then

[languid flax]

this reminds me of how my copy of skate 3 is a launch copy but its in a greatest hits case since i lost the copy that came w/ the case and ordered a replacement online

[dull pilot]

Normal box art? I can probably find it. You'd have to print it up and switch out the sleeve in the other box.

[tribal notch]

Na it ain’t unreleased

It’s from a 2007 game on the PS2

[tepid moon]

No its okay the disc has the print too, i found a normal one for 20bucks

[tepid moon]

😭

[dull pilot]

Heck, I could even probably find the disc art you could overlay.
Cool find, though!

[tepid moon]

Ty skate games are fairly cheap for me, overlay?

[dull pilot]

Like, you could get the OG disc art file, get it printed, and put it on the disc to cover the Greatest hits one.

I'm old. This is how we made mix CDs in the late 90s and early 2000s. lol

[tepid moon]

Ohh yea ive seen that😆

[languid flax]

i actually got my old copy of skate 3 in exchange for an 11 dollar subway gift card since the dude who i traded for it had two copies

[tepid moon]

That's how ppl click baited gta 6 before

[languid flax]

i'd say i ripped him off but a footlong sub AND skate 3 is hardly a bad combo

[tepid moon]

Best deal for you

[sudden warren]

LOL limewire ptsd for me

I didn't dabble in Napster much, but limewire. I used to record tv shows onto a VHS tape too!!
I know that is gonna be foreign for a lot of people.

[winged salmon]

yep big thanks for keeping your eyes on the chat

[visual oracle]

👍

[rare girder]

I think got all the other messages now 😄

[sudden warren]

Dang I missed all the fun

[vale anchor]

There is no skate4 there is no beta

[waxen apex]

And no 12 year old should have access to it

[royal bane]

how was he able to play it then

[vale anchor]

And whoever has access to the skate. pre-pre-preALPHA, are not allowed to talk about it as they signed an NDA when agreeing to become a playtester.

Breaking that can have some pretty severe consequences to their account.

For everything else, read the #rules

[open jungle]

Yoooo, the prodigy played a new song in their recent gig

[winged salmon]

I appreciate the cleanup help i was mid fifa game

[pallid blade]

dude i cannot wait to get my hands on the (presumably) improved replay camera. skate 3's system can be so tedious

[wise magnet]

I am so excited for this game, have been playing since 7th-8th grade Skate 2, I am 25, still playing skate 3! I NEED THIS GAME

[waxen apex]

Well you're gonna have to wait with the rest of us.

[gleaming peak]

Hey

[sudden warren]

Welcome and we are just as excited!

[sudden warren]

🖐

[cobalt dust]

hi nik

[gleaming peak]

how are u guys?

[cobalt dust]

im doing well

i ate chicken wings for lunch

[waxen apex]

Hi Nik. I'm doing well. How are you doing today?

[gleaming peak]

good, u?

[gleaming peak]

so lucky !!

[waxen apex]

I just had chicken for dinner.

[crystal bridge]

good evening

[tawny gorge]

have you guys ever done as boardroom live?

[dull pilot]

Not yet.

Keyword....
yet.

[tawny gorge]

lol

i think it would be a good idea for community engagement

like feedback live

[dull pilot]

Well, sure. Probably when there's not an NDA and more of the game is revealed and actual feedback is based on what the game is/isn't, not wishlists of what it may/may not be.

I used to host all the livestreams for Battlefield 1 and V (and some for BF4). I absolutely know the value of community interaction. We have plans.

[tawny gorge]

well thats good, hope to see you when and if this stuff happens in the future

[dull pilot]

It's definitely a WHEN.

[tawny gorge]

ok hope to see you when it happens lol

[dull pilot]

🙂
We'll have fun.

[sudden warren]

I had fried chicken for dinner

Is skate 4 already released?

[dull pilot]

Nope. And never will be. We’re working on skate.

[fossil ermine]

bruh

[acoustic pasture]

👀

[fossil ermine]

But that strange cause game called skate was already created in 2007

[sudden warren]

Heyhey!

[sudden warren]

Every. Single. Day.

[tribal notch]

Hello

[sudden warren]

I love this part

[dull pilot]

It’s not a sequel. Doesn’t have a 4.

Skate (2007) was the first in the franchise, aka Skate 1.

[sudden warren]

Evo-lu-tion baby!

[dull pilot]

This is the evolution of the franchise. Not a remake. Not a remaster. Not a sequel.

[sudden warren]

It's like the part in boondock saints where they're in the kitchen and Rocco comes in all panicked and Murph aka the amazing Norman "I F$#%ING Love This Sh$#"

[scenic gull]

One day closer to playing skate, the anticipation

[sudden warren]

One step closer

I find the answers aren't so clear

Wish I could find a way to appear in the new skate

[loud carbon]

[waxen apex]

It would be funny to have a voice line of mine snuck in for an NPC when they get hit by the player

[sudden warren]

[tribal notch]

hello

[rancid timber]

Gonna apply for kitchen induction at college so I can make something

Either cookies or burgers

Probably cookies

[dull pilot]

NICE!

Baking is a precise endeavor.
I'm not a great baker, but I love cooking, grilling, making sauces.
Baking is like classical music - measured, timed, and specific.
Cooking, to me, is like jazz. Get a groove and make some magic.

I wish you luck in that and can't wait to see what you make!

[wet mango]

I like cooking Mac n cheese especially Kraft

I can also cook eggs and oneletes really only the easy stuff

[waxen apex]

Sauces though 🔥

[rancid lynx]

skatebored 🤤

[sudden warren]

You guys should team up and make some edible skate. things. Like what tony hawk had done a bit ago with like a fully edible half pipe and skateboard and stuff.

[vale anchor]

[exotic beacon]

you missed it, should have been there. It was amazing

[sudden warren]

It was, I was there too

[dull pilot]

Per our EA Service policy requirements, before we sunset a game/servers/services (like forums or a Discord server), we will give 30 days notice (at least).
And unless it's officially stated by the skate. Twitter (or an official representative like myself or the dev team), it's not official.

[pallid blade]

i agree

[carmine arch]

idk why but skate 3 rly just let me do a triple kickflip darkcatch

[vernal maple]

Yes sorry it's Google trad

[dull pilot]

Depends on the size of the board, what other carryon you have.
If it's a normal board, strap it to your carry-on/backpack.

[vernal maple]

Thanks for the info

It's a 8.5

Im not sure

If it does I want that first shirt y'all released and backpack on there to grab!

[dull pilot]

Me too. I remember working with some BioWare titles - I bought all the Mass Effect stuff from the BioWare Store. And with Battlefield, the DICE store? Oh, man. I spent too much on that store. Hoodies, a special watch.

[proud trout]

literally man

[vale anchor]

I'd sew some Velcro straps across the front so it can hold a board

[proud trout]

Especially if you sell like skate boards and ect

[dull pilot]

Would be pretty dope.

[proud trout]

Tried playing riders republic the other day

felt way to forcing to land and the controls was very weird...

and tricks didnt feel as smooth felt clunky asf

and it feels like the game pulls more towards every other sport apart from bmx

Its still quite fun in its own little way but ehh

Shipped out 38 packages today. If you won the May Celebration Sweeps OR the Skate 3 Birthday sweeps (and filled out the form), it’s on the way! @skate

[vale anchor]

That's a lot of boxes at once. I'm guessing you didn't use your bike to drop em off lol

[obtuse fox]

@proud trout doesn't mean you can't create Jeff 😎

[sudden warren]

Gg Jeff! Christmas in... may

[woven pebble]

Those boards are nice.

[violet tapir]

[gloomy magnet]

Finally got the new Xbox dashboard today. I love how smooth it is. Wish it would’ve came out with the S/X at release

[gloomy magnet]

Any chance we will get official Skate. merchandise, like hoodies, and stuff that is non-giveaway? Would just love some thing to rep my favorite game.

[scenic gull]

ive been wondering for a while; whenever the new playtesting period comes around, do more people get added to the already existing number of playtesters? or are all the existing playtesters moved out and the new playtesters are in?

[waxen apex]

Try looking in #frequently-asked-questions-and-more

[dull pilot]

Bit of both.

[scenic gull]

ah, alright. bit vague but i get the idea

[dull pilot]

We have some returning players, some new players in each playtest.

[scenic gull]

yeah, thats what i figured

i suppose the returning players are just there because they got picked again by the (seemingly) random roll, right?

[dull pilot]

Or they’re members of our Player Council (Locals), etc.
And while selection is random, filling out any survey increases chances because we are looking for specific types of players based on what’s in each playtest.

Example: you fill out a survey and say you only play on PS5. Until we have console tests, you won’t be selected. Stuff like that.

[scenic gull]

idk what happened with the one survey i got in january, tried every day to use the link, but it was broken no matter what for me, took me to an error page saying 'your survey was interrupted' or whatever

did it before the deadline, cleared cookies and everything, etc

[dull pilot]

More surveys will come. Lots more tests to do.

[scenic gull]

i do hope so 🤞

[dull pilot]

It’s a fact. We gotta test console, crossplay, all sorts of stuff. It’s coming.

[scenic gull]

skate does look really fun, i dont think we've ever seen a massively multiplayer skating game ever tbh

all i'm hoping is that my pc will be able to run it, getting a little dated, might be time for an upgrade

[dull pilot]

It gets nutty when there’s [REDACTED] rollin’ around in a server. So fun.

[dull pilot]

I’m with ya. Those 4060s are cheap AF right now - comparatively.

[scenic gull]

i'm going amd for my next gpu. nvidia is increasingly becoming worse and worse value overtime

[dull pilot]

Fair. I’m an Nvidia/Intel guy, personally.

AMD are great cards, as well.

[scenic gull]

i'm rocking a 980ti and an i5 7600k right now. planning on maybe going used 11th gen intel and a used 5700xt. those 5700xts are really cheap and work wonders, 3060 level performance

legit one of my buddies scored a 5700xt for £150 used

[dull pilot]

Oh yeah. You don’t hit minimums for the test right now.

[dull pilot]

SCORE!

[scenic gull]

honestly, not surprised. optimization usually comes later

idk if a 5700xt + an 11400f or something will be able to hit minimums for the test

[dull pilot]

Always. My Razer Blade does alright with an external 2080TI, but I’m sure it would pure like a kitten with an upgrade.

[scenic gull]

i feel like if thunderbolt wasnt severely limited, that 2080ti would have more room to stretch its legs man

[dull pilot]

Legit, I think you’d be fine for testing.

I mean, it’s running 2 monitors (aside from the laptop monitor) at 2K 120hz. It’s doing alright.

[scenic gull]

honestly if times get rly tough for electric costs in the uk, i'm probably gonna go with an rog ally + one of asus's xg mobile things. decent handheld for on the go. when i get back home, can hook it up and have a monster gaming machine

and it'll sip a lot of power too

like 25w on the ally + like 100w of the xg mobile. very low power draw

[dull pilot]

Nice!

[scenic gull]

but overall, i've been happy with this rig up until very recently. its due for a good cleaning + that cpu is holding it back severely

cant even play r6 without crazy 2-3 second long freezes

[dull pilot]

Yeah. CPU throttling hurts my heart.

[scenic gull]

i think even if i got a 10th gen i3, this gpu would be oh so much better

8 threads wouldnt hurt

[dull pilot]

I remember when I was playing City of Heroes back in 2008.
When everyone would fire their ultras, my PC would literally GROAN. Hahaha

[scenic gull]

lol

for some reason my dad bought me a way beefier psu than i needed for the original spec of the pc, which is a blessing in disguise

860w 80+ platinum certified

i got this in 2018, used to run a pentium g4560 + gtx 770. i couldve done like a 400-500w psu easily

[scenic gull]

i feel like modern day pc gaming is slowly starting to become like the early 2000s again in terms of port quality and optimization

one step forward with all these new technologies, two steps back with the way the games are

[dull pilot]

With the variations of PC builds and lack of standardized specs, it’s so hard for game devs.
Legit, that’s why I love PC gaming but prefer my consoles.

[scenic gull]

my ps5 is for my single player/story stuff + my psvr2 and gran turismo
pc is for literally anything else i wanna play aka esports/shooters/competitive titles/the occasional mordhau sesh

[dull pilot]

They can only account for so many permutations before it becomes an never ending chase to isolate specific issues that legit, can’t be taken into account.

The beauty of skate. is - the team wants to remove barriers, so “lower end” can play but higher end can shine.

[scenic gull]

yeah, i hope extra time is put into optimization, it seems like removing barriers is a key thing that makes this game different from a lot of others

ofc it isnt gonna be as portable as the original doom (or will it kekw) but having as much options as possible is very nice

[dull pilot]

Time will tell. We are working on a mobile experience.

[scenic gull]

i am wishing on a switch port though. skate seems like a really nice game for the switch. the switch is severely lacking skating games, your only options being a complicated skate sim with dumbed down graphics and an arcade type game without functioning online

its the only thing stopping me from purchasing a switch at this point

not having a good skating game available just isnt my thing

i only bought riders republic because ubisoft said there's going to be a skating mode in it. it aint even out yet, they just said they're doing it

from what i know about the inner workings of skate that we've been shown, i could prob estimate the requirements of the final game but theyre prob not gonna be accurate at all

frostbite engine, releasing seemingly around 2025 maybe, optimization being key.

im estimating the minimum might be somewhere around an rx 480 + ryzen 3 3100 or an i3 10100

just a guess

[cobalt dust]

[waxen lance]

yo guys

im getting so good at backwards man speedglitch and i get so fast to the point that the game glitches and i have to restart it lol

[rancid timber]

Omg playing an offline Skate on the switch would be killer

Also, wondering if there's anywhere one could share a lil playlist he's been working on?

[wise magnet]

All these years playing skate 3 and I never learned the speed glitch lol

[waxen lance]

yall
dem bones just did the most devious thing

[proud trout]

wussup

[sudden warren]

Good morning yall!

[pallid blade]

how we all doin'?

[crisp flicker]

[scenic gull]

How everyone doing?? I’m ducking stoned so I’m coolin hard

[warm dirge]

Happy saturday yall

[gleaming peak]

Hello Skaters

I missed pizza pie Friday again 😔

[daring shore]

[unique nebula]

[cobalt dust]

:(

[gleaming peak]

I’m sorry

[gleaming peak]

I ate chicken today

[cobalt dust]

let’s goooo

[tribal notch]

Hello

[sudden warren]

Guardians of the galaxy time!

[obsidian hatch]

Y'all still like Skate Montages?

[fallow kernel]

I want this game now please thanks

[carmine arch]

🦦 <- here's an otter

[drowsy mesa]

I remember watching this 7 years ago lol (good refresher)

[marble flame]

same

[rain cairn]

how do i download skate

[dawn tinsel]

..

it ain’t even out yet

[vale anchor]

#frequently-asked-questions-and-more

[delicate sky]

I don’t think I’ve been invited to a single playtest

[vale anchor]

It do be like that

[waxen apex]

So have many others

[flint oxide]

Whats good!! has anyone ever proposed a skate history DLC.?? Taking it back to the O.G days, Fat boards fat wheels risers and pool sesh's??

A Combi bowl sesh would be tight. Skate with Duane Alba, Alva all the OG's

[sudden warren]

The teams that made the old games don't exist anymore and aren't supported anymore

[scenic gull]

Just proves skate 4 is gonna be garbage

[sudden warren]

Not really sure how that makes any sense...

[hidden bronze]

Morning everyone

[sudden warren]

LOL good evening massa

[scenic gull]

Mm

[scenic gull]

Anything people try to take from the past that was once great always ends up being a disappointment. Skate is basically a relic of its time now and it's not gonna be as good as it used to be

[sudden warren]

I couldn't disagree more

[scenic gull]

Imo the game already looks a little suspicious,they're implementing weird ass parkour mechanics into a game that should be about skating

[sudden warren]

look at thps1+2 especially in terms of skateboard videogame revival... it was AMAZING

[scenic gull]

That's bc they did it the way revivals are supposed to be done tho

[sudden warren]

and climbing is as much to skating as skating is... how many fences do skaters hop? how many walls, etc

the parkour is to get players to previously unreachable areas

[scenic gull]

Fair

[flint oxide]

I just thought it would be a nice change of pace from trying to be famous and get I Thrasher and build a team. Nothing really has to change. But it could a Dlc story 79 style.

[scenic gull]

Tbh I never had a problem with that thoi really hope they have some sort of story in plan for the game if it isn't about getting big as a skater

[flint oxide]

Coming up with punk rock keeping it true to its roots. Paying respect.

Honoring Phelps perhaps.. this is "Thrasher"

Mullen new shape BOOM san vanelona

Quick and easy way to pay respect to our predecessors and the ballsy bro's who defined the sport for us. And a good way to teach the Lil groms some quick skate history.

[versed tartan]

Tbh making challenges and focusing more on parkour rather than skating it’s self could possibly make it so the game is wide reaching but shallow. Like jack of all trades master of none kinda scenario

[sudden warren]

Yea as maybe side stuff

[vale anchor]

It's one thing to be skeptical or question how things might be, it's another to come into the house with this attitude.

[vale anchor]

Parkour has always been a part of skating. It's how you get to spots you couldn't access otherwise. It opens up the world and creates a world of possibilities that otherwise wouldn't be possible.

To comment on what you said about skate. being a relic because it's taken from the past, guess what? It's not. That's why it's NOT skate 4. It's not a sequel. It's not a reboot. It's its own standalone game fueled by so many people that love skateboarding. Being built from the ground up to be its own new experience that we can enjoy as skateboarders and virtual skaters alike.

[unkempt prairie]

Hey

[rocky hearth]

Hello

Not gonna lie but thanks to skates insta I got putting on the city in mind 😂

Also why hasn't anyone created that intro in real life?

[waxen apex]

Hey y'all! Been a little more inactive than normal.

[exotic beacon]

What if you were a little more inactive than hardcore

[cobalt dust]

[scenic gull]

nah im on easy

[scenic gull]

Did the playtest release for ps5 users yet

[ocean agate]

[scenic gull]

no, its just on pc

[vale anchor]

Well you're not hardcore, until you live hardcore. And the legend of the rent, was way hardcore!

[sudden warren]

good morning ladies and gents!

[void minnow]

Good morning

[exotic beacon]

The legend of the rent made me pull my hair out

Hope everyone’s having a great weekend!

[sudden warren]

You too!

[crude sedge]

anyone know how to download skate 3 on pc?

[loud carbon]

nope

[sudden warren]

You need xbox game pass ultimate

[gleaming peak]

Hi

[sudden warren]

sup nik

[crude sedge]

do i have to wait for the day it charges my account to be able to play ?

[sudden warren]

I would assume so

[hidden bronze]

Hello everybody

How’re yall doing?

[sudden warren]

good, and you?

[gleaming peak]

I just woke up

[vale anchor]

You can't actually download it to the PC to play, it is with Game Pass Ultimate Cloud Gaming. If you bought Ultimate, and you can access those features then it'll show up under the cloud gaming options on PC

[sudden warren]

Lmao Nik I wish could have slept in

[warm dirge]

I just figured this out the other day, so awesome to be able to play both games on PC. A few visual bugs but otherwise plays super smooth

Can even play online

Cloud gaming be the future

[golden juniper]

hello my children

[sudden warren]

Welp it finally happened...

[tawny gorge]

I want to skate around as a cheese burger

[obtuse robin]

who doesn't

[lucid willow]

skate

[waxen apex]

Enlighten me, please. What happened?

[sudden warren]

His name

Gg

[unique nebula]

ez

[golden juniper]

fr

[cobalt dust]

ye

[waxen apex]

haha

[dull pilot]

Well, that's a pleasant comment.
To clarify, the two OG Creative Directors are the Creative Directors for skate. - it's just skate., no numbers.

And, remember #rules 17. Keep it nice.

[unborn condor]

Hi

[vale anchor]

They left lol

[dull pilot]

Ah well.

[vale anchor]

Maybe with some milk and an unspoiled attitude

[vale anchor]

I mean, if they left to get some milk, they ain't ever coming back

https://tenor.com/view/without-any-milk-gif-25081694

[scenic gull]

i feel like if skate comes out supposedly being "garbage", i'll still play it because its skate

i just love freeskating around the city, with satisfying ahh controls

[dull pilot]

I think it’s gonna be awesome.

[scenic gull]

that is something that i know skate can deliver no matter what, so if it comes out in a bad state (which i doubt it will) i will still be on it every single day

[scenic gull]

yeah thats what im predicting

[split sluice]

Just saw eyes of a panther done live

[cobalt dust]

i love this episode

[sudden warren]

You saw steel panther?!?!

[waxen apex]

Coming from the guy with an unlimited extent of playtesting, I believe it'll be amazing

[winter knoll]

Is this discord about a game or real life skating?

[dull pilot]

Yes.

It’s the official skate. franchise server and we have areas for IRL skating as well.

[winter knoll]

Ok ty

[jovial star]

Guys I am BLUE!

[gray fjord]

wowie

I am green

[scenic gull]

so theres still no release date

wow its been like this since 2022

[gray fjord]

It started development in like, 2021-2022 I think
I don't remember the exact date but it was early one of those years

[scenic gull]

yea its been so long

[gray fjord]

2 years isn't all that long, or 1 year

[scenic gull]

@fossil garnet i have a question

[sudden warren]

Welp, savage had a good run, at least he asked!

[waxen apex]

For a modern game to be made? Not really. Modern games including from AAA companies like EA, it'll take anywhere from 4-6 years of development at least

[sudden warren]

Devon, the game was only announced within the last 3 years

[waxen apex]

In the highlights and board room videos, you can see the game is still in early stages. Hence the pre-pre-alpha

[gray fjord]

Yeah

Seemingly, they only recently added like, unique customisation

[scenic gull]

so like prob around 2026-2029 it will be realesed?

[sudden warren]

Also, I don't think I have ever seen Zek in here so no use tagging just a fyi

[gray fjord]

It tags a user with a Kirby pfp

I don't think that is Zexy

[sudden warren]

It is

see under the roles it shows local?

[scenic gull]

?

[waxen apex]

It is. Check the connected accounts

[sudden warren]

that's only given to the real deal

[gray fjord]

Oh

[waxen apex]

No clue

[gray fjord]

I thought that was a level thing

[sudden warren]

Devon, no use in speculating. just hang out, check official socials and get the info they feed us all

[scenic gull]

if thats the case this game aint gonna be able to compete w the games out in 2026

[gray fjord]

I haven't been chatting here for a while so I didn't even notice that, or the connected accounts

[sudden warren]

oh nah yonah, just content creators and people that work with the team

[waxen apex]

You'll be surprised.
Edit: pinged the wrong message

[sudden warren]

and some others*

[gray fjord]

What skateboarding games are coming out in 2026?

I'd love to know

[sudden warren]

nadaaa haha

[gray fjord]

I love skateboarding games a lot so the more the merrier

[sudden warren]

i'm sure he means gta, whatever cod is expected etc

yea I love the fact that a bunch ave come out in the last few years

[gray fjord]

cod is like, every year, but technically every 3 years

[sudden warren]

haha why you only like one of the dev teams?

[waxen apex]

You also normally don't hear about games from official sources until the games are ready for release

[gray fjord]

Yeah

Pretty often with an announcement trailer you also get a date of sorts

[sudden warren]

haha, i enjoy them all, all good in their own respect. albeit, some better than others overall

[gray fjord]

cod or skateboarding games?

[sudden warren]

teh cods

but also yes skating games lol

[gray fjord]

Ah yeah, I personally only like what sledgehammer does, or Raven

Treyarch sometimes, mainly black ops 2 and 3 tho

with skateboarding games I'm really really into session right now

[sudden warren]

I love campaigns, so I usually respect them all. I've been around since cod4, so my love is with IW, but spent alotttt of time on blops 1 and 2 and even 3

[gray fjord]

I got into cod through MW3

[sudden warren]

I'm trying to play more session so I can get better at it

nice! good one to start with

[gray fjord]

Yeah, I never played the campaign much as I sucked at games when I first played it, but it definitely kickstarted me liking cod

I then got cod finest hour, on the ps2

[sudden warren]

I'm currently going through 2 and 3, but on veteran they are a tough grind lol

well, currently as in i started 2 and got aboiut 60% and then stopped and havent gone back since. but i plan to!

[gray fjord]

Gotta love the plans

I have a lot of plans on completing games I started, I never get around to it tho

[sudden warren]

I am pretty good about it usually but it wasn't a priority

[gleaming peak]

hi

[sudden warren]

Nik!

[gleaming peak]

hi

[tribal notch]

Hello

[golden juniper]

steezus

[sudden warren]

wassup joe

[carmine arch]

ima pop in rq

so chat is a bit dead

[carmine arch]

chat is still dead?

[cobalt dust]

hi nik

[clear vigil]

i hope the game will be friendly for 8gb ram laptops

[gleaming peak]

yoo

[carmine arch]

i feel so stupid bc i just thought of why they call it underwear

because you have it under your "wear" (clothes)

also real question will skate. be free to play online or will i need an online subscription for consoles

[tribal notch]

What up Huckman

[waxen apex]

#frequently-asked-questions-and-more should cover ya.

[carmine arch]

it does infact not cover me

[waxen apex]

oh. well the game is free to play no matter what. no payment is needed to play

when its out, youll just download and play

[carmine arch]

i know but there's that thought of having a free to play online game then getting slapped with an online subscription page

[hidden bronze]

Sup people

[carmine arch]

sup

[waxen apex]

you wont.

Cuz promised. I trust Cuzimus.

[hidden bronze]

Forever trust Cuzzo

[waxen apex]

🙏

[carmine arch]

i dont mean by the game or whatnot, i meant like how if you tried to access online, you would need (for example: xbox live gold)

[waxen apex]

well youll need to if youre on a service that requires it like Xbox gaming.

But if youre on pc, it should be free to play online

Online gaming and free to play are completely separate

[hidden bronze]

That’s sort of what I was just thinking

[carmine arch]

couldn't it be like fortnite where you dont need an online subscription to play the game online since it'd run on it's own servers

and not the console manufactuers

[hidden bronze]

I was also thinking that
But IMO, would be better to wait to see if there’s any info that comes out about that as development continues and the devs provide further context

[carmine arch]

very different topic but

i wonder if there is going to be exploiting and if it's going to be a problem

because there is PC

[hidden bronze]

I suppose so
Just adding my two cents, if that’s any help

[carmine arch]

i think that's the only big reason i was skeptical of cross-play with PC

[hidden bronze]

I’m just going to remain hopeful that there are things in place to prevent that
It wouldn’t bother me particularly, I’ve always preferred to play Skate 3 on my own, while also playing with friends on occasion
But yeah, PC exploitation could be a serious problem if overlooked?

[carmine arch]

insert photo of cheeto being a lock on a door

[hidden bronze]

Hopefully it wouldn’t be that lax 😂

[carmine arch]

lol

still praying on a singleplayer mode (story) but prob gonna be crickets since it's free to play

and they dont want to lock necessary stuff behind a paywall

[jovial star]

Hey man how you been?

[sudden warren]

Negative

[sudden warren]

Correct. Free to play games do not need subscriptions to Xbox live for example

[sudden warren]

Good, and you?

[tribal notch]

Hello

[vale anchor]

You don't need gold to play free to play games on Xbox. Same goes for playstation and their service.
Xbox used to but that stopped awhile back

[sudden warren]

You can even join xbox live parties without xbox live now

[gray fjord]

I'm glad I can play f2p games without needing a membership, I wouldn't be able to play infinite otherwise

[violet tapir]

Yo

[tribal notch]

Hello

[waxen apex]

That's amazing. I never knew that!

[sudden warren]

Good morning yall!

[gleaming peak]

Good morning skaters

[exotic beacon]

Good

[dull pilot]

While I'm on holiday, let's do a video contest. Details dropping in 28 minutes. (Prizes are a Year 2 Deck & that slick Xbox controller).

[rare girder]

[violet tapir]

[sudden warren]

[pallid blade]

Well, I know what'll be taking over my life for the foreseeable future lol

[dull pilot]

Hey <@&866780255004000308> - New realistic video contest in the #giveaways-and-contests.

[raw sundial]

I will take part in this contest in turn for a key to skate 4 (Im desperate now)

[dull pilot]

That's not the prize.

[raw sundial]

god damn it

[winged salmon]

1 day... 1 day

[raw sundial]

Everytime i hear that it makes me cry myself to sleep

[winged salmon]

Me too

Til then i cant wait to see the submissions

[hot cypress]

[raw sundial]

my black and deep void of nothingness is waiting to be filled with the light and fulfillment of skate 4

[split sluice]

I did indeed

[winged salmon]

Did they have the eyes of a panther, or someone in the crowd at least

[fallow notch]

this is so cool but it's so hard to find motivation nowadays

[fallow notch]

me before i found out the game is going to be live service multiplayer focused

[shut nebula]

Yeah wish I could Join

[fervent tinsel]

Classify being a vibe

[waxen apex]

Good luck to all who enter!!

[raw sundial]

I like the multiplayer direction the point of skate is to have fun and friends makes it better

[fervent tinsel]

Fr ong

[raw sundial]

if only i had friends that didnt succumb to the wait of skate 4s release

[fallow notch]

yeah but i feel like tonally this game's gonna flop, it's not gonna take itself seriously or anything

hell it's implied there's not gonna be a campaign or story

fortnite with skateboards

[raw sundial]

nah i dont think it will flop it has passionate devs, the question is whether EA will make it flop or not

cos EA is a publisher that you dont rly wanna get involved with

money hungry

[fallow notch]

plus we've been waiting for SO long. Why did they announce it right when it was entering development? why not wait a few years and surprise us with a full trailer

[winged salmon]

How many games we seen surprise announce and then we skeptical it was rushed

[raw sundial]

its better to learn early as it keeps many people playing skate 3 and excited for the release

[fallow notch]

imagine if skate 4's trailer dropped as a surprise and it came out a few months from that reveal. i'd be ok thinking skate was dead until then

[winged salmon]

Skates never dead

[fallow notch]

just saying reveal it when ready! don't announce anything until then

[winged salmon]

Been waiting a long time. Did anyone see when Steve Berra made the "make ea skate again" hats i wish theyd add those as hats ingame

[waxen apex]

They're trying to make the best skateboarding game ever using community feedback. It'll be amazing

[raw sundial]

EA give them a time frame anyway its not like they can keep developing for as long as they want

[waxen apex]

They have private roadmaps that they're using. They know what they're doing. It's mostly devs from the previous games. I trust them.

[fallow notch]

i feel like 90% of skate 4's shortcomings will be due to EA

[waxen apex]

What's Skate 4?

[sudden warren]

I followed that religiously lol

[waxen apex]

I want one of those hats

[raw sundial]

thats the track record of previous games managed by EA but this could be different, I have a glimmer of hope.

dude back in like 2016-2018 i was DYING for skate 4. i'd regularly fantasize about the game and everything. even made a soundtrack for the game

[unique wharf]

oh my god this server has the exact same arguments everyday it’s like a time loop

[fallow notch]

i'd play really well made custom skateparks and imagine they were part of the skate 4 map

it got kinda pathetic

[winged salmon]

I hope you made it a playlist to suggest 👀

Having had this conversation multiple times before, all I'm going to say is wait and see. But this doom and gloom attitude about things you don't know about just isn't fun.

[fallow notch]

it had 60+ songs and @dull pilot added em all to the community soundtrack so fingers crossed

[sudden warren]

No arguments I see

[winged salmon]

100%.

[unique wharf]

literally this is like the 20th time someone says this

[rancid timber]

Me trying to remember if I have an EA account lol

[winged salmon]

Ill check it out when i leave work. Im looking for more irl skate playlists

[sudden warren]

Just conversations, new people join. It happens.

[waxen apex]

Gl!

[raw sundial]

its a trend though, we do know that 90% of EA games have fell off because of them being money hungry.

this was my baby lol

[winged salmon]

Skyfi is typing. She gonna lock it down like mongocorp

[vale anchor]

You can either believe in what the devs had said, which is concrete. Or you can fear the unknown and bring down the vibe. But this EA=Bad ting is old

[fallow notch]

i hope this game doesn't go the battlefield route with cheesy lines and quirky characters

[vale anchor]

🥱

[winged salmon]

Its reasonable. Whilst you're free to the opinion, look at jedi survivor. if you want a decent example. It goes without saying skate is different and the love and care it gets.

[unique wharf]

can’t wait for this game to come out so these type of ppl stop showing up

[pallid blade]

Get in! I love realistic!

[winged salmon]

So lets keep it gentleman(and woman) game of skate and accept it and not show the need for the slander all the time

We all know the score. Just be happy skates coming. I know i am

[shadow matrix]

Soooo is it only for the eligible country? If my country is not in it I can't join? Genuine question I really wanna join

[half trout]

Man I just wanna skate around with the homies like old times, some of yall take this stuff too seriously, if its not your thing then just dont get /play it lol

[raw sundial]

nothing is concrete, EA making games bad isnt unknown, if you have ever played one EA game in recent years and enjoyed it then fair enough, but they never are good. No matter what EA always lock the developers to making what the publisher wants, not the actual passionate dev team. EA=bad also isn't old, in the past years games like Fifa have been released under EAs control and have all severely flopped due to greed.

[fallow notch]

sorry i'm just a bit of a pessimist knowing ea's track record and it's so obvious the mtx and live service was ea's requirement from them

[rancid timber]

Bruhhhh I can't login on the website

[gleaming peak]

hi

[rancid timber]

I click the Xbox button on the sign in and it does nothing

[steady mountain]

who pinged me

[rancid timber]

Sadge

[raw sundial]

How can I be happy for a game that I have wanted for years to be ruined by eventual greed.

[vale anchor]

Jedi Survivor, It Takes Two, Apex Legends, Titanfall, the original skate. trilogy, countless others, all made by EA. There's plenty of good examples to balance out things. Plenty of indie games rise and flop.
That being said move on

[winged salmon]

Realistic competition! #giveaways-and-contests

[rancid timber]

Jedi Fallen Order was pretty fun

[winged salmon]

Survivor is goated

[pallid blade]

Sir have you heard Cuz's quips in contests? Have you seen Meat Man?

[shadow matrix]

need answers

[fallow notch]

cuz was comedic value and meat man was a cheat code

[vale anchor]

Here's what HAS been promised to us.

[half trout]

Miracle whip bottles.

[vale anchor]

So...

[pallid blade]

How could I forget!

[fallow notch]

"no map areas locked behind paywall" just screams to me no map expansions at all. that map better be good

if not it'll get old fast

[rancid timber]

Or free map updates

[vale anchor]

Maybe stop trying to read between the lines and zoom out a bit

[winged salmon]

If you're country is not in the t&cs then im afraid that's the case

[heady shuttle]

Every game today that comes out is going to have issues off the drop. Its the unfortunate way things go now. I have faith this game will be great but its guaranteed to have issues when it drops but people just need to be patient about bugs and fixes. 4

[rancid timber]

Not completely unheard of

[pallid blade]

Why would they mention extra areas if they don't plan on adding them?

[raw sundial]

Jedi Survivor and it takes two are on the EA play subscription which ultimately benefits EA so there is no need to add bad cosmetics and ruin the game, however free games such as eventual skate and Apex Legends especially has been ruined by EA. In Apex Legends, skins for ALGS were called off because EA refused to pay pro teams sufficient amount of money, and not to mention the state of the servers that make the game practically unplayable and audio issues.

[shadow matrix]

I mean they shipped to Malaysia and Singapore but not Indonesia? Really? We are like neighbours lol

[heady shuttle]

they would have to add more areas to keep people engaged and interested over time.

[winged salmon]

Just keep an eye Lox, it might be short term issues getting the rewards out to you and legalities of the contest

[pallid blade]

Lol I swear every time there is a server wide ping there is at least one or two people that pop up and start hating on a game that hasn't even come out yet

[vale anchor]

https://tenor.com/view/kids-spinning-round-and-round-gif-13186900

[winged salmon]

I know 😦

[raw sundial]

I remember this being said for other games just to be disregarded

[rancid timber]

I just wanna skate with the bois

[winged salmon]

It might get added in the future theres tonns of contests

[rancid timber]

And also to sign into EA

[fallow notch]

also "san vansterdam" is just a terrible name. does not sound like a real place AT ALL

[half trout]

We can see why

[pallid blade]

Neither does Port Carverton lmao

[waxen apex]

😐

[fallow notch]

how so

[unique wharf]

and san vanelona?

[rancid timber]

Dude, Skate 3's map was called Port Carverton

[fallow notch]

carverton sounds like a real surname?

i think it is actually

[rancid timber]

Mate, Skate hasn't exactly been known to be a super accurate super serious sim

[half trout]

Fr

[vale anchor]

You can choose to believe the devs or not. But don't bring your doom and gloom in here. IF there is something that happens that goes back on on that then sure, yeah, THEN you have a reason to point it out and share that feedback. Until then you are worrying about something that doesn't exist. Ultimately a waste of energy and actually damaging to your own health.

[shadow matrix]

I doubt it lol but I still have some hope

[rancid timber]

It's fun, it's wacky, it's relaxed, it's laid back

[winged salmon]

Wish irl skate was

Feelsoldman

[rancid timber]

It's something you hop on to have a good time with your mates

[half trout]

For a game so wacky and funny this community sure got some not so wacky fans

[rancid timber]

Yeah... they manage to be in every community lol

[unique wharf]

its basically a simcade lol its realistic enough to do realistic clips and stuff while being wacky enough to do whatever

[vale anchor]

Honest question. Do you have anything at all to say that is positive?

[raw sundial]

I think 'doom and gloom' is necessary to make expectations lower for something that is extremely likely to be ruined.

[vale anchor]

https://tenor.com/view/wrong-kiddo-guns-gif-19570543

[rancid timber]

Yeah, but the general vibe of skate is far more chilled than others that I've seen

Listen to Cuz' lines in a Skate contest and you'll see what I mean

[half trout]

https://tenor.com/view/bender-future-futurama-gif-20629432

[pallid blade]

For sure. If people want a realistic skate game they can hop on over to skater xl or session

[unique wharf]

man you really are showing them with those gifs!

[rancid timber]

Yeah, there's no shame in wanting realism, but also realise that this isn't the game for realism

[fallow notch]

um. i do but i can't really say why

[half trout]

There is a whole section of the fanbase literally built off of breaking the physics to trickline-

[sudden warren]

Fort point is, it's a positive community

[rancid timber]

https://tenor.com/view/only-game-heff-be-mad-gif-5038541

[rancid timber]

Exactly

[raw sundial]

who r u

[pallid blade]

Totally, like I prefer to play realistic in the skate trio cause it's an extra challenge and I know the controls well.

[fallow notch]

i mean it's a simcade. But i'm talking about the style and presentation

[rancid timber]

I am Yu

[vale anchor]

Two options here. 1. Continue as you are and no longer be a part of this community. 2. Listen to what momma said and "if you don't have anything nice to say, then say nothing at all".

[rancid timber]

Love this answer

[half trout]

mans already chose the losing battle by arguing with the mods, im curious to see what option he chooses now

[rancid timber]

Good stuff

[raw sundial]

you are threatening people for having an opinion?!

[fallow notch]

I'm a fan voicing concerns. I don't think i'm coming across as super toxic or anything

[half trout]

Your opinion is damaging and just dumb

[raw sundial]

then dont listen to it

[half trout]

then dont play the game if you dont like it lol

[raw sundial]

who said i dont like it

[unique wharf]

this server's a time loop jesus

[raw sundial]

read bruv

[vale anchor]

I'm not. I'm giving a warning about breaking #rules along with a history of rule breaking from the one I replied to. If you have moderation concerns, feel free to contact modmail. Thank you.

[half trout]

the amount of brain rot

[fallow notch]

what history?

I SAW that lol

no chill bro wtf 💀

[half trout]

You saw the bot message? decent

[raw sundial]

i dont see anything in rules about expressing concerns for the game

[vale anchor]

#rules #17

[unique wharf]

im starting to feel bad for y'all mods cause does it not get tiring dealing with the same people?

[vale anchor]

Be nice

[raw sundial]

yeah how is expressing concern not being nice

[vale anchor]

See my above comment about contacting modmail for moderation concerns

[raw sundial]

yeah will do.

[fallow notch]

they're not giving you mod access bro 💀

[half trout]

https://tenor.com/view/bryan-cranston-walter-white-fear-emotion-emotionless-gif-26168725

[unique wharf]

i literally just said i don't wanna be a mod💀

[raw sundial]

being nice to EA is like being nice to a convicted criminal

[vale anchor]

I'm not EA lol

[raw sundial]

im talking about EA not you.

[fallow notch]

"Be nice" how is voicing concerns breaking that? If i was getting angry and name calling sure but I'm committing the crime of... being pessimistic?

[vale anchor]

But if that's your attitude, then why proceed to be in an official community created by EA

[fallow notch]

there's no other discord for the new skate game for one

[raw sundial]

the community is full of people that care about the game not EA

[half trout]

so then why complain about EA in the EA server- again with Skyfi's point

this doesnt compute--

[vale anchor]

Then I suggest for you continue here, you not spread fear and uncertainty based on nothing.

[fallow notch]

because we want the devs to know it's not their fault for the most part

[raw sundial]

this isnt the EA server is the SKATE server, I am discussing what may happen to SKATE due to EA

[fallow notch]

i have faith in full circle. NOT ea

[half trout]

the skate server-- Which is OWNED by EA

[raw sundial]

well there is actually facts that it is based behind.

[vale anchor]

Full Circle exists solely because of EA

[unique nebula]

Source?

[vale anchor]

Not for this game itself based on what the devs have stated themselves

[half trout]

I think you got your opinions and facts mixed up

[raw sundial]

They're very good at messing up games with a passionate fanbase.

Every once in a while, we hear a news about a game company that royally screws up a game that's part of a series with a strong following. One recent example would be Assassin's Creed Unity, with its oftentimes very unique glitches.

[left sorrel]

I don’t care if EA is funding it or whatever there contribution is, I’m excited for the game and the gameplay

[raw sundial]

If you were to look up a list of biggest video game public snafus, you'll probably notice the EA has to own up to a lot of them. Things like the Mass Effect 3 ending, SimCity (2014) being unplayable at launch, the Dungeon Keeper mobile game are all examples of things that happened under EA's watch. And these 3 titles that I mentioned are also games with a strong and passionate fanbase

[vale anchor]

Which has nothing to do with this game. Move on.

[half trout]

^

[raw sundial]

it does tho.

[vale anchor]

Move on.

[unique nebula]

Assassins Creed Unity came out almost a decade ago, do you think that everything always stays the same and nothing changes as well?

[fallow notch]

calplex in the house!! what's good dude

[half trout]

Just remember the devs COULD have given us the Halo treatment, but didnt and are keeping us updated.

[raw sundial]

recent games like Fifa have all been copy and pasted expecting full price

[rancid timber]

"is only game. why you heff to be mad"

[raw sundial]

skate isnt only a game its my childhood

[half trout]

its a sport game, do you expect grand stories every time you buy it?

[rancid timber]

I know, I'm messin around lmao

[unique nebula]

At this point, you're just moving goal posts for the sake of being negative
