That’s not what it is… you can call it that, but you’d be wrong
Skate 4
It’s been in development for 3/4 years… that’s not that long in development time
Most AAA games released now take 5 years plus to develop
Bro I'm literally 35 waiting on this game. 😂 😭
Most games actually get the final 50% done in the final six months of production regardless of the game and u can look that up
They’re taking way too long
true but its kinda sad that triple aaa devs have premade ground work and it takes that long vs indies that dont have the same manpower get hits out in less time
By chance… do you work in game dev?
Have friend that works for Activision and we talk ab this a bit, companies will make most of the game in the last 6 months before release
The release for skate 4 or “skate” or whatever feels pretty lazy
ok bud.
Heard of blame truth?
You think theyre doing a good job releasing this game?
When did they even announce it 2020?
And activision are known for just knocking out Cod games
Because that's the absolute worst thing that could happen 
Okay pal… then you don’t need to be here ‘waiting’ for it
You gunna trick line on them?
Activision is super guilty of the 6month thing and releasing half assed bs
They cant release a beta?
They announced that it was beginning then. The work didn't actually start till later.
It just feels like a long time because most game studios don't announce games this early in development and they have a lot to get right. It's being built completely from the ground up with new animations, mocaping, and such
Can't release a beta when it's still in alpha
How is it still in alpha after 4 years?
Even the … games are getting announced super early with years and years before release. Xbox announced a whole slate of games 3-4 years ago that we never heard from since.
Studio wasn't even formed till 2021
https://www.ea.com/games/skate/history
Even then… the whole time isn’t hands on deck development. There’s pre production stuff involved too. And your friend is obviously keeping stuff about game dev back from you. Otherwise you wouldn’t have started this. Maybe speak to your uncle at Nintendo next time
Maybe i do work somehwere and just couldnt say it directly and maybe i dont
Game development is hard. It takes time. Your surface understanding of the process doesn't change how the actual process works
But this game is taking so very long for quite literally nothing
You can disclose if you work at a company… it’s usually just the project.
That you know about
And by this statement.. you don’t
Whaddup
Ok aaron have a nice day
Cheers, you too
Keep supporting companies that dont release games
That's why I support your role at name redacted studio
I'll support the company that makes games I like. You're the one coming in here complaining about things you don't understand as if they are fact. It's not. And being in here acting like that isn't going to change anything you think is wrong.
bro gots to be either trollin or knee jerkin
I love unlimited games
You think this game should still be in it’s alpha then? This company hasn’t done anything good in over a decade regarding the skate franchise
False. They came back.
Obviously you don't
It doesn't matter what I think. It matters what the devs think. Maybe go watch some of the board room videos
At least then you'd have some clue what you're talking about instead of whatever you make up in your own mind
only after it's come back from the gym. :3
So you admit you're clueless. Noted
You're welcome to believe whatever you choose
I certainly wont believe whatever bs ea has been telling u since skate 3
Thats why theyre gonna wait til 2025 for this game to come out
or 2026
I personally hope they take their time and make it perfect
That is based
Dead Space Remake, wild hearts, Jedi Survivor, Jedi Fallen Order, WRC, etc. Obviously releases games.
instead of rushing it to please the ppl that want their games asap
Og dead space went hard
This is a better opinion than letting ea just puke down your throat
Having talked to and met some of the actual devs on this game, yes. I choose to believe them instead of some guy with a "friend" at Activision
Why isnt the game a priority to ea?
You're the one with the assumptions here that this is what's happening.
Well ten plus years
Doesnt really seem that its that important to them
Youre forgetting they announced the game years ago
You explain how it isn't. You explain how they allowed a new studio to be created and given free reign to make the best game they could and how that isn't considered a priority
They announced they will be starting to work on it and that the studio is back. They are making the game with the community's input to make the best skateboarding game.
Why even announce it if you already have been keeping people waiting for years just to make them wait longer
Then say barely anything regarding the time frame where the game will be released for years and years
Because we've been able to have more input and say into what we want and that allowed the devs to make a better game for us. Announcing it early has let us have a say and role in the development and we're seeing some great things come out of it.
I'm sorry if that isn't easy to understand
How can you be in agreement with me on taking their time and then turn a 180 and say they taking too long? 🤔 a bit counter intuitive of a stance, my guy
Seems like a quick way to make your customer base hate you but some customers like getting pissed on like sky here
Im saying your opinion is a valid one but sky here is just being dumb never said i agree with your opinion just that it isnt bad
Wow you're more clueless than I thought
Keep waiting on the game bud
U said, and I quote, "based"
See you in my thirties
I've done my best to help you understand but it seems that you are arguing in less than good faith. Have fun waiting.
Yeah you too bro exactly my point
I'm not afraid to wait. You can have all the fun you want complaining about it.
I been waiting
Wait more then

Right? in the mean time skate 3 STILL poppin, amirite? 💪
Too long. Ill fight the whole community on this. It is taking too long for this game to release.
yes correct
that game from a decade plus ago is still popping
Fight all you want. It'll be a quick way out of here
Bro ITS BEEN A DECADE
Best to ignore the troll and stop engaging
but it's fun to poke the bear 🙃
Alright so lets talk ab micro transactions
Yikes
u know wuts fun? arcade games. :3
Hey Huck. How's your day going?
Yerx, you don;t need to be here
Fun to create a bigger mess to clean?
chillin kaiza, playing nhl
By the way they're acting, they probably won't last here
Oh heck yeah
Oh yeah, Jeff I put it in creative when you wanna give it a look
I dont need to be here
or, u know, watch him shoot his own foot. got my popcorn ready. :3
hbu?
You guys can stay in limbo waiting for this game
me in limbo
I love limbo. I've won before
Yeah youre good at it arent you
what has you so mad?
you in 2030 still tricklining on skate 3
i usually don't pay any mind to people like you but i have a few minutes to make sure your negativity doesn't come around again
lol I've never tricklined in my life 😂
Best to drop it and move on Huck, he's been like this all morning and can't see reason
📠

See yall in 2026 wit no new game
u said that already
Oh trust me, I never engage with these silly bananas
Hey Gekkota. How are you doing today?
This isn't an airport, no need to announce your departure
You do that in airports?
/whoosh
U woosh bubba
I'm having fun! 😂 bummed cuz I left my power cord at home, so I'm just trolling the troll.
I did, I did 
How u be homie?
Lol. Rip the cord
F
Doing great so far. Woke up today, so I'm not complaining
Not anything too crazy. Been playing through the GTA 5 story on PC for the first time. Always played on console but adding mods definitely made it more interesting
Man, I ain't een touched GTA 5 yet
Wow another game that came out like a decade ago
been messing with lethal company tho
Atleast w gta6 you know theyre actually doing stuff w the game
It's fun, I've just only played it once.
Been on a palworld kick recently, it's a blast
me too, been waiting to jam with the homie this weekend
GTA 6 development started in 2015. They've been cooking
I wanna try it soon
YO! how is that? looks fire!
Rockstar made a skateboarding game once upon a time...
I saw a lot of controversy with it
Thanks
All the unfounded and false claims controversy? Yeah lol
been loving the memes on it tho
Oh. I haven't looked into them. Just heard there was some stuff
yea i think most of it was just "pokemon will investigate"
hello people. how are u all?
They probably won't sue tbh
It's like Pokemon and Ark had a baby and it's fun. Crashes a little bit here and there but they are fast with their updates and it's been nice
mornin, homie!
Hi Luna
Kaiza ur massive swagster how u doin?
morning!
Doing well. Just chilling
Yea, idt they have grounds to
uuu nice
I don't either. It's pretty much a parody
If they did they would have done it already. The game was 3 years in development publicly. There's not much they can do
Truth to that
Same
Skate 4
It's really cool
I have it downloaded, just havent played yet
Not even a parody! Its own fun game with unique mechanics
Yes but not completely what I meant. Hard to explain for me atm
publicly?
?
Palworld
you talk aboute skate 4?
Palworld
nope
oh ok
about 3 years for skate
cross fingers 😉
good luck! just make sure to read your emails fully, wouldn't want you to break any nda's within that email
Just remember if you do, you can't talk about it 
Let me know if you do get in play testing signed up for it a long time ago
Legally they can't
Nah, you have to wait 😂
Everyone has to sign an NDA
Ealenthis, don't let yerx know. that would be against NDA
yes i know 😉
can't talk about it at all homie
but i will never be select i think
☝️
there ya go trek!
?
You signed it the moment you signed up to potentially test
You sign it when you sign up for playtesting
Ignore them. They've been trolling all morning
Best if you don't forget
I also forget 30+ page legal documents I sign
I forgot what I ate yesterday
Honestly same
I do too besides the pizza because it was mid
man, I can't remember the last time I had pizza
Today
I last had pizza the Friday before Christmas
Well now it has to happen! :3
I had it for breakfast
👀
breakfast pizza, delicious
Finna order up some dominos later
What's your normal order?
That garlic crust 🤤
Well my wife is one of those heathens that like pineapple, so we usually get half hawaiian half meat lovers
I've never had garlic crust
bussin
Oh heck yeah. Ever since I added BBQ sauce before I cook it, BBQ chicken and pepperoni with mushrooms and onions is my go to
Oh man, my mouth watering thinking bout that
BBQ sauce is my fave sauce on a pizza
Hell yeah
then add some pepperoni, sausage and bacon and I'm good
Yes!!
maybe some black olives if I'm feeling weird lol
also love me some chicken breast
chicken is also delish
and it makes quite a dish
props to anyone that gets that reference
@dull pilot for the screenshot contest, says no glitches. Does that include glitch tricks like no hands or dark catch handplants?
the contest is to showcase your skater’s customization - what they look like, wearing, deck graphic, etc.
glitching, in this situation, refers to using glitches to alter your appearance. if you want to do a dark catch handplant but it can clearly show what your regular character is wearing, etc, that’s not out of bounds.
Dope! Then I gots mad ideas. :3
Thanks!
No.
Jeff, lemme do the honors cough
UUUUU, u gotta show us when the winners have been found!
Stay tuned for August!
You'll probably know it's mine when I see it. ;3
yea but- how would i see it before winners are announced haha
Oh right right. I see wachoo mean
i sent mine in yesterday, was very sattisfied with my entry, excited to see what u do!
nope


Cloud Gaming skate 3 is garbage LOL im glad I have my 360 version still 🤣
It's bad for most games if you don't have the greatest internet
pretty much
i don't play games, hence why im rich and ur a pooron
who would I ping for a scam link in #skate-memes
After many hours and a couple of days of finding spots and snapping shots… I’ve finally got a photo I’m happy with for the Skate photo comp, wish us some luck haha
Good luck 543 🫡 today is my day off finally. Im about to sit down with skate 2 or 3 and sweat like a cod player lol
Can’t make up my mind. Ik I don’t want to do skate 1
@vale anchor
These bots getting better about bypassing the auto triggers
Which skate. within the series are you all snapping from?
I want skate 2 for the vibes but i want skate 3 for grind grabs
Yeah… it’s been a while since I’ve seen many of these. Unfortunately people thing it’s all real
I went for 3 just for the possibility perspective
Pose-ability
I peeped a few snaps submitted that were shared first on their respective socials
Competition is fierce
I did have some skateboarding ones… but the comp is about your skater and board set up. And I found it hard to get something that really showed everything off
So I found a cool spot and spent a minute setting stuff up to get a nice snap that I was immediately happy with
Enjoying my Saturday by chilling and playing skate. with a mission today
Love this community type competition. Fun to go head to head with other skate. fans.
Express creativity
But who am i kidding. I need my hands on year 3
xD
Yeah… I don’t want no competition! I’m joining in because I have no luck on the sweepstakes due to the sheer amount of entries! I’m assuming less will enter these… because you’ve to actually do something haha
So true! But i cant talk. I finallyyyy won the spinner. And it was fingerboards! I love fingerboarding
I keep one in my pocket for fidgeting with, busting tricks out randomly lol
Not how I'd put it...
File a ticket with #help-and-support-info next time
Stripped rights makes it sound like I did something to lose them lol
No worries, wasn’t sure how to go about people posting stuff like that on the discord
The community mods were promoted to OGs - community leaders. No longer Discord server cops.
Probably feels so good to not have to always keep an eye out for spam bots
I do like the auto-mod feature.
Lol didnt mean it like but that it does read that way. I could never imagine a scenario where sky flipped out, got in trouble, whole 9
That’s what I thought when I first read it haha
Hi Jeff. How's your day going?
Oo my bad lmaoo. although would be funny if she had like put a leaker in their place but maybe too much bad cop. So got demoted to desk duty
I watch too much netflix lol
Not sure why i said stripped of all words
Promoted to OG!
@scenic gull can you make metal armour so i can get my stuff back from that cold area
DOH
Hows everybody doing?

Hello again
Meh, and you?
Im good, tired tho
Good good. Just got back from the dog pack with Kuma. Now it’s bath time, then bully stick, and Diablo IV for Jane and I.
Heck yeah. I forgot about Bully Sticks. Enjoy the day, man!
I'm guessing the Bully stick is for Kuma and not you lol
Yes haha. Its like a slim jim for dogs
I know what it is
Oh haha
He didn't specify that it was for Kuma or not 
Bully Sticks?
I wouldnt be afraid to take a bite unless it smells bad
Nice
Have a nap when you can
Uuuu how was that?
I'd think it was "Good good." Lol
It's a tough snack for dogs. Helps clean teeth while keeping them occupied with a snack for a while
Oooh alright
Yeah we have those
Probably under another name
Code verification?
Also you probably shouldn’t be talking about the mail here
Gotcha, sorry bout that
Trying to sign in to my EA account through the website, it asks to send a code to my email to use to sign in but code never reaches my email - so I'm never able to actually sign in lol
Lots of fun. We always have a blast playing with the puppies.
Understandable! 
Try checking you spam/junk folders.

Hey Jeff, based on the
emoji and something you told me a few days ago, I decided to start a little something
Hi Everyone!
Hello
Hi Kaiza, how are you doing today
Doing well. Working on changing up my Hitman content since it doesnt get views.
Gonna be trying an entire new style that covers mysteries and backgrounds of characters
@gritty pond don’t discuss playtest details - including invites - publicly. Per the Playtesting Agreement and NDA.
Nice. Like an iceberg type of content?
Not quite, but it could lead that way. Thanks for the idea
🤦♂️
?
Lol, dude is on a power trip to cover up issues with their service
no, i'm enforcing the rules of the server and the EA NDA.
⬆️

I'm trying to log in to EA.com to access my account but EA are not sending me verification emails to let me access my account
What's NDA about my account?
that message wasn't to you.
also, re: the verification code issue - check #x-feed-previously-twitter. EA Help tweeted out they're aware of the issue and working to resolve it.
Do the devs not like me or is it really that hard to get in, been signed up since August 2022 apparently
the devs actually know exactly who you are and specifically made sure you did not get in
Makes the most sense
Relate
Would be cool in the new "skate." if they add a arcade cabinet like in a middle of no where and you could play the true first OG skate aka Skate or Die on it..
EA should have the rights to Skate or Die still
That would be pretty cool
Makes me think of the cabinets in THPG where you could play old runs
Yeah
Is the play test that’s about to come out consol post
For now it's PC only
I thought the consul playtest was coming year
Yeah, it's coming this year, but it's not here yet
"Console testing this year" scares me. Depending when it happens it most likely means game isnt releasing this year.
Gotta say expecting a 2024 release is setting yourself up for disappointment
I’m hoping for holiday season of 2025 but would be happy with early-mid 2026
if anyone here got invited to the playtesting and have the "3 of your friends" please send me a message!
I wanna play this playtest so bad
"BRING YOUR FRIENDS, not random folks on discord..."
#game-announcements message

send it to me
I can be your friend 
Who says I even have an invite?
no one,
Just said I could be your friend
can't even bring myself again 😭 hopfully game comes out this yeat
Oops , finally got around to watching that recent YouTube video and it was a great watch. Had me dying a few times
That video said console playtesting is expected next year, not January, next year. What that means I’m not sure but I can confidently say, with 73% assurance…that the game will not release this year, rather when it’s ready
This ^^^
How’s console testing even gonna work? You can’t get apps that aren’t released on ps4 or Xbox
We'll find out it looks like
Add og emo hair to skate
I was thinking this too
There’s Betas and whatnot on PS4, Xbox One.
And since skate. will release on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series, Xbox One - it won’t be difficult to get that type of setup on the stores for testing.
I had no clue about that. And I’ve been using ps4 and Xbox for 7 years! You learn something new every day 😂
Most times, it works like this (for other titles I’ve beta tested on console, not saying it will be exactly the same for skate., and I use the term EA account, but it would help the same for Ubisoft, 2K, etc)
You get invited.
A code - linked to your account- is sent that you redeem to get the download from the store.
That gets the game. But access - that’s linked to the EA account. So, you sign into the downloaded game with your Gamertag/PSNID that is linked to your EA account, it does an entitlement check to verify you should have access, then you play.
Now that is cool
I really do be learning things everyday
Ohh okay
Plæytesting for 6 weeks will test system as if it had dropped but pc timed exclusive, stress out servers over weeks, etc
All goes well. I can 100 see console getting in on action soon enough
Is there a way to share my skate 3 skater without capture card? I play on 360. I wanna enter giveaway
If you have a decent camera on your phone, some minor enhancement can help it not look like it was taken with a phone.
If I offered to make their photo look better, would that be cheating?
Check the rules. Must be entrant’s creation. (Would be unfair, tbh)
👍
You could share your photo to EA inside the game and have someone screen capture/upload it from their 8th gen+ console and send it to you if you have someone who'd do that
Hey, what happened to The Stars Misplaced?
No idea what that is
They're a band that appeared in Skate 1 with their song "Prophets and Kings"
That song is only on YouTube and SoundCloud btw
Idk how to do that
Ah
Good morning everyone! How did everyones day go? 
Went awesome!
Worked on that new video idea I told you about
Currently porting a certain NFS car to GTA story mode
This is harder than I expected
Uuuu sick!
first
The land before time.
Hello everyone, I slept two hours
Oof
Yes
Good morning to all
Morning
Man silent hill short message sure is something else
Is it good? I have it downloaded but haven’t played it yet
Morning huck! How u doin?
Wait theres a new silent hill game?
It’s like a free short demo game like PT
Uuuuuu interesting!
Well. Kinda
Oh that’s what I thought it was lol
It's supposed to take about an hour but I keep dying. It's not for the faint of heart for sure
Very messed up
Not as repetitive as PT
Oh okay. Is it actually scary? Lol
If you're spooked easily then 100%. Lots of "oh snap something behind me gotta go go go"
I've seen and played plenty of horror stuff and i still get spooked so hard for me to say lol
I like that suspense lol sounds fun I gotta play it
Probably more fun(scary) if it was in VR
I would literally die from a horror game 😭
I can watch horror movies just fine but not horror games
Something about being in control when the stuff happens, hits different
But I love em
@dull pilot would it be against the rules to ask for an ipa file for skate it? I wanna make sure i follow the rules.
good morning fellas
sup
Yes.
Sounds good! Just wanted to make sure before I send anything.
Not a fan of IPAs, more of a cider fan myself
Lol
IPAs?
"it's liquid bread, it's good for you!"
Morning everyone
Welcome
How's your day going?
Good enough
Hell yeah
You?
How competitive will the game be i wonder. Its supposed to be chill but there has to be some kind of competitive ranked gamemode right?
Hey Jeff how are u!
Liquid bread, sounds so- odd- but somehow im interested in what it would look like LMAO
Doing awesome. Just found an interesting place in GTA. I'll drop a pic somewhere soon
It's beer lol
Wait- liquid bread… is beer?!
Very cool
Have you tried Downeast? They’re really good
Haven't heard of them before. Gonna put it on my list! Right now my favorite is Austin Eastciders
So guys. Excited for any movies this year? 
The Book of Clarence and The Beekeeper look pretty good.
New peanuts movie! Christian Dior Biopic is coming out too both on apple tv
Uuu nice!
Sick!
Dont know much about any of those, but im writing then down 
gotta say, I'm so hoping speed glitches will be gone
Hahaha today is funny
Lmao aaaaand now you're not in the test
They're glitches native to skate 3. Why would they be in the new one?
Rip
All details are in the emails.
Including not talking about getting accepted @ripe zenith.
^
does no glitches for the contest mean no solid color boards?
If it is not acquired through means of regular in game play, you cannot use it (not sure how it went cap locks on the end lol)
how do i get early access
Skateboard
you mean for the playtest? see link below
wait... where is coach frank... playtest
What happened to frank? 😔
idk!
My guess is bot is probably down
that's a good guess!!
Or it got turned off for spamming lol
Frank prob too busy teaching someone how to skate- or maybe hes on vacation yk?
yea maybe during the influx of sillynannys
Yeaaa that seems likely
hi
hi
hi man!!
sup nik
yoooo
how are you doing man
great. you?
ive been so busy with work, sorry for my inactivity
but im also still always at home lol
how dare you be inactive
:o
Yeah, how dare you have a life outside of this server!
i know it isnt like me, ill change my ways
I'm doing well
can we even play the game ???
Why would you be able to?
What game?
Good follow up^
I play wired to avoid that issue
not helpful!!!
yee old computer restart did the trick
love when there is zero explanation and that just works
So as it is now 2024 we getting any update or a demo for the new skate????
I’m dying waiting
Haven't watched any of the Board Room vids I see
^
can someone help me
with?
Very cool! Especially since it's not even in beta yet!!! Must be a time traveler.
Heads up, not supposed to talk about what's in those emails
I wish I was in the future
Can't help if you don't say what it is 
So on the bar cart, I forgot the bars that slide in the top and bottom that make it look better, will stock it and send an updated picture when we do put some bottles on it
They said that about the 2000’s 
A man can dream tho
My Skate 3 isn't working.
They said 2015!!!
I mean, technically we do have them, just not wide scale, in a reasonable price point, or in any means of the word efficient
pain
yeah it needs a job
hi
nah im good now it was for the contest
Sorry I had too lol
I'm proud you did
Where’s my skater bud Kaiza
My Skate 3 on unemployment
In skate. (The 5th installment (if you count skate it) ) will you win a fight against ankle high water
What was the sweepstakes for?
it was for the skateboard deck on May 7th, 2023
Oof. Yeah, tried to get ahold of you multiple times. Sorry, bud.
it’s cool, it’s a shame i missed out on it though.
my lesson to keep mention notifications on
Especially since there are no more Year 2 decks to give out. But we have Year 3 ones. Another chance!
definitely signing up for those
So you dont Skate or die or skate or die 2
made by EA
I dream of it every day 
Hi Will. How are you doing?
Random thing I gotta ask
But will skate. Have story to it or will it just be an online only thing
Probably been asked a billion times before
Nvm I just did some searching
They’ve confirmed it
Yeeeeeeeesh
Dished out big for new PC
Just a lil i7 14th gen and a 4080s
Reckon Ill be able to play skate. On that 😎
Definitely not overkill
I don’t expect a full blown story maybe a narrative that helps guide the live service. Like with helldivers, battlefield, etc
Looking forward to finding out
So sad
But I’m really just hoping it’s an actual story
Honestly, a rags to riches type story will work for me.
That’s what I love about the OG skate games
I just want something engaging either way.
Yo! I’m good, not excited to go to work in the morning tho haha how you doing man?
Doing well I guess
Btw random thing how will the game make revenue?
Because being f2p comes with a cost
(Probably has been asked abt 5 billion times)
micro transactions
What kind of micro transactions
like fortnite
And season passes
yeah just imagine fortnite but skate
They said no paid loot cases, so we're all assuming micro-transactions like cool clothes and decks
is this play test for consoles or that later 
is it possible to be picked up to play the playtest twice?
Oh lord
I hope skate transaction is way different than fortnite tho if they do that route but better in a way
Hope they will keep the skater from the original games, that'd be sick
Morning party people
morning
Does skate play test happen on console or just pc?
PC for now, console later this year
Console testing 2024 
phones can run anything these days man
Hold up how do you know console testing is later this year? 🤨
Jeff said it here himself
Oh nice! I totally missed that message, definitely be something to look forward to! 🙌
Hyped for tomorrow 😄
It was said in a video on skate.’s yt channel where they answer questions, and as trekeln said- jeff said it 
Yea its taco tuesday!
No way
Taco tuesdays are lit
for your own sanity, you don't need to type my nickname in full haha
What's taco tuesdays? I remember seeing a sign in skate 2 about them-
Noted 
Just write Trek lol, it's quicker
Though feel free to do whatever you want of course
Well- its just a “saying” like its taco tuesday, aka a tuesday where u eat tacos
And watch the YouTube video , they dropped that info there as well. It was a cool watch
is it possible to still sign in for the skate Playtest??
U can always sign up to be a skate insider, but it dosen’t mean ur getting a spot in the next test
Really hope pc modders don’t ruin that real fast
Like water Wednesday
question about the test, is it possible to download before it starts as you would a preorder?
hopefully that would be nice
go on ea playtest portal and it says at the bottom under "Your Playtests"
Fettuccine Friday, Meat Monday, Smoothie Sunday...
If you were accepted you cannot discuss it publicly...
Haha really only taco Tuesday is a thing. And in this server is pizza pie Friday
I'd recommend deleting any comments related as they break the nda you all signed when you agreed to sign up for play testing
PIZZA PIE
Terracotta Pie
Is that a reference to-
Looking that on Urban Dictionnary gives me something... spicy
That was your first mistake
It's from a song
Well, it can be dirty yes. But I'm referring to SOAD
You go to the one place people make anything and everything sound as dirty as possible, that's on you 
Hey, I'm far from being the sharpest tool in the shed!
... And I didn't know UD had that much of a reputation
Man they gotta give a question if they actually know what an nda is the amount of people I’ve seen talking about it publicly is absurd 😭
Most people don't
do u guys like, cake or pie more?
ATWA, Toxicity, and Chop Suey! are my favs
pie
Lmaooo
Lmao
^ people that sign up for the play.test
i mean no? testing the game is 18+ and i assume everyone 18+ are aware of what a NDA is
Everyone can google what an NDA is
Or ask ChatGPT about it
That's not a safe assumption
yeaa.. true..
Does anyone knows what is called the general style of the first skate.?
Realistic?
No like the UI
Oh I think I know what ur talking abt
Tbh idk
Are you talking about the style of cutscenes or actual gameplay
The menus
With the stuff floating around with a paper style
Oh yeah
Not sure if there's a name for it
Sketchbook
That, tbh I have no idea what the name of that style is, kinda just looks like paper cutouts
Grunge, punk
Highschool backpack
whatever it is I love it
Scrapbooking lol
Probably
Unrelated but I’ve been trying to get my hands on a 360 copy of skate 2 for a few days in my price range
It's expensive?
My budget is 15$ 😭
gg
we so broke
ive seen multiple skate 2 ps3 discs in that range on ebay
damn why is it so expensive
Problem is that ps3 games are generally cheaper than 360 games idk why
Just an observation I’ve made while surfing eBay
a lot of the 360 era games people want to buy are available on backwards compat which works with the old discs
I was gonna say ransom note lol
lmao
Same thing
damn its beem a while buit here to remind you we still need creed in skate
I'll look but you'll probably need another 10
Go to any thrift store near you
If they sell games
That’s how i got skate 1 and 2 for xbox
Already had the ps3 copies of the 3 games minus the first one
I got all 4 games for about, I'd say 50-55 bucks
Not bad
Skate It for both Wii and DS though
Oh you got those?
Yeah
Those are impossible to find lol
The DS version?
Odd
I got it at a local tech convention
Just bad luck on my end
It's not bad at all, although it's way, way more hard than the Wii version
I’d be lying if I said I’ve looked recently.
They’re neat but really just a novelty nowadays I think
Awesome for playing on totally native Nintendo ds and Nintendo wii though because it’s easy
I'm not sure if you can talk about emulation here lol
Nope
Yeah...
And, playing it on an emulator doesn't give off the same charm than on DS
It doesn't have that... ergonomy, y'know
play skate it ds version on an emulator now my monitor is covered in pen scratches
im today years old, and still dont get what creed is
emulator talk is a nono here
me was goofing i didnt actually get a pen and scratch my whole monitor to play skate it homie
ohhh sorry, didnt understand the joke-
all good im very unfunny
I chuckled
nah, im just autistic
eveyone needs swaggy to come back to provide the funnies
real
what is creed 
best band of all time
ohhhh :O
I have a really specific idea for the game but I don’t really know if it fits in the skate ideas channel lol
Someone put "add fishing" in there, I think it's open season now
I agree. Handsome Squidward should be an option
....... no
look up the paramount super bowl commercial to start
I'm a
fella
they sound good! even got custom speakers with their name on it, now thats stylish
huh?
Links don't work
yea i know
oh ok
my huh is for luna
ah sorry
no sweat
Creed4skate
well
Like, you create your own little playlist to play in-game
having a specific soundtrack for a game just- sounds alot better
I don't really understand that want for people anymore. just mute in game audio and play music from literally anything
this!! ive said this for so long
Because I like playing with the environmental music on
I don't want it to have in game music off so I can play music through a different app because then I won't know if a boom box is playing somewhere letting me know there's a cool spot
But I've never had that issue because I like the in-game music
Lol
lounge act just came on... ughhh
Lounge Act?
oof
some skate. fans you are
(this is me joking, not being some elitist skate gatekeeper)
It's a Nirvana song?
Ooh
The only song I know from the 1st game is the main menu's
"doop! be-do-be-do-be-do doop! be-do-be-do-be-do doop..."
Yeah
I love this track
One day I went to a museum in England, and this track played on a record
I was like "Omg this is the track from the gaem!!1!!"
ayo
hi
hi
Good morning everyone! I truly hope you all have been doing well.
Tricklining on the DS
Why hello, hope you're having a wonderful day too

Could someone possibly answer a question for me regarding play testing? Its not an NDA-breaking question, just need some clarification on what my status means
thats still NDA- u can't say a single lil thing about it, ik it sucks but- yk?
It does suck, even on their FAQ I haven’t been able to get an answer. It doesn’t even have anything to do with a particular game it’s just the EA website being confusing 😖
If you received an email last week, it will have more info as you were selected as a participant - pending registering for this specific test (it's in the email details).
Playtesting is currently on PC, requires EA app.
Any other questions will be answered via details in the email if you were selected.
If your status on the Playtesting site says a specific playtest date/time, then you received an email to register for that test.
Hey Jeff, how are you doing today?
Also, sorry to ask if this was asked- but, the mails for the play.tests will stop being sent tomorrow?
Music
I Wish they would add at least one song of these labels:
Red Scare Industries (This one specially (The Falcon & Teenage Bottlerocket))
Iodine Recordings
SBÄM Records
Bridge Nine Records
#skate-music-suggestions
Use the form linked in the chat to share some song suggestions.
I know emails went out last week. I don't know the current status, but if you were invited, you received an email. As this is a longer test, it MAY (no guarantee) have a second wave later, so always keep an eye on your inbox, but there's nothing else I can share at this time.
Oh okay, thank you for the heads up
As this is no longer a test?
Yoooo has anyone got any imports that I can have ?
Huh?
Excelent just sent a few suggestions
highly confidential
These rumors about Microsoft going Multiplatform has been blowing up my twitter feed
Major advancements in my life starting tomorrow, I cannot wait. 
Congrats!
Jeffrey said that in the text. Wondering what he meant by that
@sudden warren
As this ia no longer a test. What does he mean by that. I dont dare tag a mod
What are you talking about
Look at the thing he wrote it says "As this is no longer a test"
Read it again lol
"As this is a longer test"
Oooooh
I get it whoops
I read that wrong so many times in more then one way

Lmao
Can you develop dyslexia? I need to google a bit
?
I think he's joking lol
@scenic gull doomsday is upon me. its snowing again.
Noo way!!! Snow season has officially left us here
jealous
Still freezing wind!!! But just wind
It never made it to snow season here, any time it was minus it was clear sky's
And even if there was precipitation, technically still too hot to stick
We had -6 one night but not a single cloud
I'm waiting for a freeze like we seem to get late February/early march
Not complaining tho because as much as I love snow, it's a giant inconvenience for a push chair
Hey, its quite dissapointing, that tickets just get closed without any answer.
is there any mod around?
You closed your own ticket.
Also, you cannot discuss playtest details outside of the official closed playtest forums.
Anyone down to play around 530/6 eastern? xbox
88.33 ET?
wut
Hi Everyone!
Im down
Heyo!

worddd
Great to hear that
oof
Read your email please. Public discussion is not permitted
Correct. Read your email again
so we delete message ? lmaooo
my bad bro
Check #rules if you have any questions.
okay okay thanks
just out here tryina help!
It sounds mean, but the answer is always read your email
the endless cycle of skate 3 after completing story
boot up skate 3
ride around town for 10 mins, maybe kill a challenge even tho u've 100% the game
join an online lobby
play for 5-10 mins
get your lobby judo'd 
wash, rinse, repeat
xbox or ps3?
that's the xbox experience
that's EXACTLY what I do haha
quick question, when does the next skate playtest start?
Tomorrow
aight bet
cool beans, ive regiestered but was looking around for the play now XD
I registered when it first launched and I still got nothing
It will happen a day. Maybe.
Bruh
what does getting a lobby judo'd mean?
Judo Kick
@wraith snow ok kook what ever you say
The “judo” is a trick, and the judo kick thingy crashes lobbies lmao
just like surfing culture, the surfers are the worst part of it
Exactly, whatever i say 
It does? I never knew
It doesnt just mean they are being booted by the host?
Pretty sure i saw a video on it
i cant tell you the amt of times i had to restart the game
Oh wow
because it basically soft locks you
@wraith snow what a good represention of the EA creators 🤓
It could, i just remember seeing a video or smth where they go “WHO JUDO’ED” as in someone did it as the server crashed or smth
Wait I'll search on YT
syphrus?
damn but I love Judo planting
Can’t remember! Maybe!

Found a vid named "Skate 3| how to judo a lobby"

what
Wait I'll share a link
what is there to learn you just late 180 judo and EA servers can't comprehend that like 80% of the time
Well- u could just- read the rules, that clearly say u can’t discuss anything about the play,tests outside the testing forums… me sending a sticker made as a reminder, and agreeing that what u said is right, isnt bad- 
Yup! Sounds like its a thing then haha
Discuss? I asked when the next one begins? that is publicly available info...
I was just asking but all i got was gate keeping attitude
I put it in #off-topic and I really never saw it before
But we don’t talk testing here, thats why we have the sticker of coach frank 
Dope dope!
Ahhh, thats my bad, wasnt tryna give u attitude, just tried to use the things we have available as reminders, instead of writing a 3 page essay on what to do and what not to do

one thing i've learned, if you see an experienced guy with a modded outfit, there's a 200% chance ur lobby is gonna get judo'd within the next 10 mins
DAMN. Now that sucks 
in a more respectful manner yeah you cant discuss playtesting in here if your picked for it
not really lol they just wanna play
the kids who judo are modded inexperienced players who have no idea what they’re doing
True dat
true
omg y'all gave me an idea for a "Get Judo'd" sticker
thought everyone does the tail walk it's judos now?
That's a CLASSIC
if u caveman judo it crashes online games
I don’t tail walk. I AIR WALK. Yes im better.

Fr!!
btw im pretty sure that breaks EA's tos by judo'ing a lobby
OMG YOUR AN AIR WALKER😱😱😱
yeah but ur not gonna get banned
but like no one rly cares bc who gonna fill out a report form
even if you did you’re not getting banned
breaths in i was gettin to dat part
Yea, i do that stuff 
Intentionally crashing an online lobby
Probably
But considering it's a 14 year-old game they wouldn't really care
bc it ea and a 14 yr old game?
no because ea doesn’t care about it anymore lol
fair
if they cared they would fix the glitch before banning people for doing it 🤣🤣
THATS NOT TRUE!
looks at ea
Okay maybe its true.
What would be one thing you guys thing would absolutely ruin skate.? Making it a live service game or something?
ea when someone from skate 3 is reported... 😂😂 are u serious man for this?
they'll reprint the game for xbox one before making a patch update
(hint hint)
the last update was in like 2014 or 2013 lmao then they went off to focus on other games
Nah- i think it would be making it full on arcade style- like not being able to play realistic, casual, or on easy to do outragous stuff, removing that- would prob ruin what made me fall in love with the series in the beginning
yeah and for some reason they started reprinting the game for xbox one in 2016
money
that's basically ea
lmao yeah i mean i wouldn’t have been surprised if they had done the same for series s and x but some don’t have disc slots so no point really
man i wasn't looking where i was going on skate 3 for a sec and i somehow hit a street pole and got hit by a car 😭
Getting hit by a car in Skate 3 is very funny for some reason
Honestly they could've done a Skate 3 remaster or something like 5 years ago and I bet enough people would've ate that up to make some profit
if only there was skate 2 on the xbox stores
😔
