Why is it so expensive, like- is it that big? Does anyone here know the like- viewer numbers?
40K??god damn
I didn't know the price cause I don't go to superbowl games but damn
the superbowl is a really big game tho so that might be why viewer count off the top of my head I don't know but its HIGH
prolly why it's so expensive
Oh wow- cheapest ticket is 8,750 USD, and most expensive is 196,875 thousand USD-
Now thats crazy.
😱
And resellers ask between 45K USD and 69K USD for standard tickets
Wow- america is for sure a place holy moly
then u got the betters who bet thousands
100 million ish viewers- oh- thats- kinda underwhelming- i expected so much more-
Idk why i got dissapointed i dont even watch it, but 100 million dosen’t- sound that wild when u compare it to the ticket prices and how wild it is promo wise for brands, movie, tv, series etc.
Hmmm
i was trying to make a joke saying baseball was the superbowl 
Well- i didn’t know it wasn’t before @cosmic dome told me it was american football- so u couldve said it was any sport and i would prob have believed it
That's nearly one third of the entire United States population.
Yea but- im european- and we got eurovision- and i expected the superbowl to be way bigger then that cause, yk- america-
Europe is home to almost double the population of the entire continent of North America.
America is loud, though
we are seen I guess
Yea true, theres also some non european countries in eurovision i guess, i think its because in my head the whole “AMERICA 🦅🇺🇸🏈” “WE’RE THE BESSST” is like ingraved in my brain + the hype for the overall show goes crazy on social media- that in my head i just expected more in a way
Since when is America not trying to be heard lmao
It's weird to me because the opposite could be said from me. I never hear about Eurovision, like ever
Yeaaa makes sense- we geoblocked the semifinals and grand final live shows up untill like… 1-2 years ago for america- LMAO
Now yall can watch tho haha


I'm surprised there isn't a Helix Snake emoji
Why?
Dude was way up there
and also it's an homage to how people will always find glitches and try to exploit them
Glitches 💖
i remember his vids
never managed to do any of his glitches...
need pre-patch or demo
learned that far too late myself (Thanks, Sy)
Game used to be crazier
Ooohh
Hi Calplex

At least he was wearing a hard hat
lucky you
this gif is from Helix if im correct
What's that
just did my first ever hippy flip in skate 3 
Same outfit minus the crown
Fakie n360 flip?
i got no idea, but my board went through the gap in a rail, and my legs didnt glitch through it, so. W

Oh hell yeah!! Didja get a clip of it?
i. prob shouldve done that, and i assume i can scroll back far enough in the replay now?
Hopefully haha
also, im lowkey excited to see all 20 winner photos for the contest
like, see how different they all are
I just hope mine was enough to make it in there
im sure it is!
I just hope whoever picks the winners thinks the same way, I really feel like I could’ve submitted something better
i think it was awesome, im just confused about when its announced- but i assume its sometime today, or tmr
either way! i think all the pics are gonna look dope
Guess we’ll find out haha
If I don’t win, it is what it is
Hopefully there will be more opportunities to get a Year 3 deck if that end up being the case
for sure! and if not! then i remember Jeff saying about the skate team having ideas for a year 4 deck- sooooooooooo :O
exciting stuff fr
I’m pumped to see what that would look like!
Braddock's banner now
pretty sure hes had it for awhile
always has been
Ofc ofc 

just earned some money from tiktok for the first time LFG
Hell yeah!
Sounds like a plan! If you go through with that, enjoy!
wassup peeps
Luna!
Luna is in the house !
THATS ME 
Luna! Hello!
Heyooo
We usually take about a week to decide, verify eligibility, and then announce.
Hows everybody doing? Im sad cause- my netflix ran out and now i have to suffer till i wanna pay for it again LMAO
Ahhhh nice!
I gained some reacquired faith in my submission again
Perfect!
I looked it over and tried seeing what photography principles I did/didn’t apply
Woah
Leading lines is probably one of my favourites, and it applies fairly well in the image
I left a small explanation for how it applies in #creative
It’s the most recent message
Hey Jeff I sent you a dm just hit me back whenever you can please
I think it depends on what you sent him
Just to confirm, it’s not about playtesting, right? As there’s nothing I can share re: access, invites, etc. that isn’t public.
Good morning to all, enjoy the day, stay hydrated!
U too huck!
Thanks!!
Hello all
Heyo
Worky work
Hello Huckman and Seari!
Yo yo
Good good, relaxing big time!
doing good, just at work
correct
Hey @dull pilot I have an idea for a contest that I wanted to share with you in DMs if that’s okay.
It’s more graphic design related
Make a ticket for Server Support via #support-desk
Good afternoon
Was this meant for me?
Yep.
Hi Jeff. Got anything fun planned today?
Jeff is in the house 
Finishing up a new Discord server, packing up the Sweeps prizes, and reviewing the screenshots for the UGC contest.
Oh heck yeah. Pretty solid plans
Th UGC contest are the screenshots skaters been putting in right?
Anyone know if they are going to update the playtest over the next month or so or will it be the same contnt for the duration?
yep. they submit them to skate.reel and we review them, pick our favorites, verify eligibility, and announce.
Super hype, looking forward to who wins and seeing some great submissions. might boot up 3 and see if I put one🤣, just gotta find the ps3 controller
pretty sure any info would be shared privately with playtesters via email and the private forums as the playtest is under NDA and not for discussion in public platforms.
yea, been lookingfor an answer through all those routes but can't find one
Thx for reply though boo xox
you should really stop talking about it publicly.
first rule about skate club
Link for user forums? Having trouble with something
Nobody can give you one here
What skate. club?
ask brad pitt
Check #frequently-asked-questions-and-more and https://www.ea.com/games/skate/faq for info on Playtesting.
👍🏻 got it sorted
the scenario can go a couple ways:
they invited you before the cutoff but you didn't register/confirm before the cutoff.
they invited you after the cutoff.
either way, if you don't have the playtest in your EA app (and a couple of emails explaining everything), you didn't get into this playtest.
regardless, discussing anything related to playtesting ("friend invited me", "having bugs", feedback, details, contents of emails, etc.) is a violation of the Playtesting Agreement and the NDA. so it's not allowed here.
additionally, EA Help advisors cannot assist in playtesting issues as they do not have access to the Playtesting tools/lists/databases.
He doesn’t exist 🤫
Brad Pitt is a hypothetical geological feature that consists of a large, deep, and circular depression filled with human males who share the first name Brad. The origin and formation of Brad Pitts are unknown, but some possible explanations include:
- A natural phenomenon that occurs when limestone dissolves by acidic groundwater, creating a sinkhole that traps people named Brad
- A human-made feature that results from digging, blasting, or mining activities that expose a hidden chamber that contains people named Brad
- A biological phenomenon that involves a rare genetic mutation that causes people named Brad to grow appendages that allow them to burrow into the ground and form a colony
The first and only known Brad Pitt was discovered in 2023 by a group of hikers in the Mojave Desert, California. The pit measured about 50 meters in diameter and 20 meters in depth, and contained an estimated 200 people named Brad. The people named Brad were not harmed by the pit, but rather seemed to be living in harmony with each other and the environment. Their origins and identities were unknown, and they claimed to have no memory of their past lives or how they ended up in the pit. Brad Pitt is a unique and mysterious phenomenon that challenges the conventional understanding of geology, biology, and sociology.
level bot updated. lemme know if it helps or not.
When is the play test for Xbox
we haven't announced a date yet.
Sounds good
What is a level bot
Ahh i guess #rank
Just saw youre level 102 omg lol
hahah. yeah.
Here's the levels and corresponding ranks.
(LEGEND will take like 4 years)
Level 1 - Getting Started
Level 90 - Getting Noticed (embeds - like gifs/pics)
Level 120 - Noticed (attached files, like photos from your PC/phone)
Level 140 - Getting Famous (change nickname - must abide by server rules)
Level 180 - Famous (stream in server - must be a Skate franchise game, abide by server rules)
Level 250 - Legend (basically unobtainable. don't have a reward for it, yet)
I have gif perks as a not level 90(;
Wait … i have a getting noticed role
I believe i got the getting notice role from grinding during a previous bot before rank system reset again
Glad i did that! No way to get Blue Name now
Getting Noticed would take like 9months to a year.
you've got about 7+ years to go. lol
damn
Haha
Does this mean peeps with Getting Noticed role get a boost to level 90?
nah.
Do we still have a chance to be invited to the Jeff big summer barbecue slam fest? 
Need to nerf these I think
You're the only one above level 50
Nah. (I boosted myself to see how it worked.)
Legit once we are more public about stuff - and the NDAs are lifted - it will be easier to get ranks. (Also, I may adjust the channels since most are not giving XP - like memes don’t grant XP in that channel, etc.)
Hey people, woke up from a nap, feels like ive travelled through time and space haha, hows everyone?
Ahhh i see, u got this tho! Im sure of it 
No stress hurt! Ill be in the same sittuation sooner or later yk? But aslong as we check in, have fun, vibe and just- have a good time when we are able to be here, then its all gooooood

It'll be less of a pain after wednesday, cause we got money coming in then. Till then tho we're kinda just barely hanging in there, and i'm mostly just sleeping to pass the time.
Oh nice you found work? Or is this that passive income finance people talk about
But that is great it will come. Just getting to Wednesday tho, i’d also just sleep it off lol
Nah, it's just a social security check coming in from one of my other family members. I haven't found anything.
To be frank, i don't think i will, i'm not built for it.
I got yelled at all day by customers at work today, prob cause they are so hungover from superbowl night
It sucks, but they do pay me okay so i cant complain. Im chilling
Love trying to kill the San van the corkscrew challenge
I mean i'd work at a store if there were any near me that were hiring and would actually hire me.
Bc that fakie just ain’t acting like a fakie
But applying for jobs is a ridiculous game.
Huh. Im from the city so i could never imagine no stores near me
Prob nice the quietness of rural
Eh. In some ways it is.
Maybe a remote job from a laptop?
Customer support phones. I do that sometimes on the side for hh
I don't have the space for it. I can't justify working from home if i don't have a dedicated space for that.
Everyone is different. I live in a Studio for $2K a month since this is the City
I work, eat; and sleep within the same 100 square feey
Damn
DAMN
Yeah, I can't.
And that is why I sometimes wish my family was from the rural
But im not leaving them. So i am here in the city
But yeah, i donno. It's not that I don't wanna work, it's just that applying for jobs is a ridiculous game of standards i don't know about, made even worse by my lack of experience with anything anyone cares about.
To be honest if another person suggests that to me as if it's a reasonable thing to do i am gonna jump out a window.
It will happen im sure. Maybe areas will develop around where you live in the future
Because i've been told that like 4 times
Yeah i tried to learn c# and python and it was fun
But am i coderV
Hell no !!!
I salute anyone who can understand coding. So idk why i suggested it to you lol
Hunting for jobs is insanely hard, u truly gotta like- think out the box like- clean shoes for people,take photos at weddings etc. Cause- supermarkets etc, despite being a super like- boo hoo type of job (atleast in my own experience) have super high expectations
Hmmm a boo hoo kind of a job? Sounds like you were a ghost buster LOL
I donno. I have little motivation to bother anymore. They don't wanna hire me, i just won't work.
Screw 'em.
Could always start your own job to be your own boss
I donno. I'm just gonna go back to sleep.
Being a ghostbuster would be sm cooler than a supermarket job…
Have a good sleep Lycan
Jay way too nice
I used to fold pants at my local mall. That is a boo hoo type of job lol
I've tried being mean, not as enjoyable tbh
and being nicer can tick some people off more than if you're meaner, which is weird
I should try that. Being mean in response to someone being mean just escalates things so much
One hand i wanna stick up for myself. But on the other, is it worth expending my energy and mental health
It's really not worth it
I used to spend a lot of time arguing online, it led to nothing, for either party
Im a lot older than you. And i am only just now coming to terms with this. Spent all my life fighting
And i am just over trying to prove myself. To whoVv
Idek to who. So that makes it so dumb
Often times being nice to someone leads to positive outcomes, I've had people attack me for being trans and/or a furry and, in the end a nice conversation lead to me and them just talking about what games we enjoy
That is the first time I heard you say that to me from all the times fakeskating
I always had an inclination, but i try to never ever assume
I look past judgement. What you do for work, is not who you are as a person
Your sexuality, etc does not define you
So i never care. I just pay attention to how you teat others
Yeah
Thats so true lmao
I'm not really loud about being trans, I don't mind it when others are loud about it, that's just not my kinda thing
Talking in general is not my kinda thing, I go non-verbal if possible lol
But yeah, I am learning to stop fighting fire with fire
Used to pour gasoline straight in lol
Yeah, I did the same
Btw while waiting for skate. what games do you have in rotation atm?
I'm currently playing Session, The Finals, and some COD:MW(2019)
Fortnite too
I played that MW3 trial recently and it got me back into COD, so I bought MW(2019) for $33 AUD, definitely don't regret it
I am apparently rank 29 in the server from being level 7
session slaps jus got back into it and the whole mod scene just makes the game so much more enjoyable
Yeah, I'm on console so I can't experience the mods but they look good
wassssupppp
waaasssssaaaaaaaaap
I am suddenly craving a strawberry milkshake
I'm craving a steak
Uuuu a steak sounds NICE rn
I am playing a lil Cod Black ops
And skate 3
Alan wake 2 ws the best game i ever played. But i beat it twice and so i need a year long break before i revisit lol
omg i love skate
ell oh ell ecksdee
How do you love skate if it hasnt dropped 👀
Skate. 2007? 
Skate. (202x) 
I'm in a big cooking mood and I kinda just cook steak all day lol
That and my family is on a diet where you eat only meat
Ohhhh interesting!
Yeah, it's also been helpful for my own health so, it's nice
Im also trying out different cooking , better meal plans
Cooking is quite fun tbh
That #food channel has some wild, insane and crazy pics by @dull pilot
Tagged cause like seriously. Wiiicked talent as a cook
Hey pro tip if you want to save 20$
Don’t buy the skate 3 dlc it ain’t worth it
I mean it’s ok but like 20$
The 2 hours of painfully trying to kill some of the spots was not worth it compared to driving over and getting a KFC combo meal or something and enjoying that for 15 minutes
It is tho
I like the filmer pack dllc
I don’t think you can even buy it
Idk I still feel like buying all of the DLC
Just so I can experience 100% of what the game has to offer
3 hours of side quests
Same with Skate 2 kinda
Hell yeah, I need an excuse to play more Skate 3 anyways
Is it really delisted? Damn. I am still saving up for my Xbox series x so i could get skate 3 disc
Rn i play on a ps3 that has ethernet/wifi dead af
But it ain’t even the good side quests it’s the side quests right he same energy as “follow the npc but their walking speed is slower than yours”
I mean it has kinda almost if no use
Anyways after Microsoft laid off so many Xbox workers and the news of gamepass taking over
The filmer pack, what does it give again?
When
Yeah. Halo on PS5 sounds ridiculous
Pretty sure it happened a few months ago, the lay offs
There's a rumour that game pass is coming to PlayStation due to then rebranding it as Microsoft Game Pass, and something else I think
Kinda stupid if it goes over to PlayStation
In grand scheme. It is great games finally coming to sony! But that is why im now saving not ps5 and not xbox sX
for*
like think mark think
Why would they want to give that to da competitor
They want to pull out of console wars and go online only
So funny cause this was their vision for xbox One a decade ago but it failed
But now gamepass is so stRong
Still not buying into gamepass
All jokes aside. I have pc lol
Well I got gamepass code but that’s basically gold now
And the busted ps3 for skate 1-3 but offline only
Hopping on with friends on console just hit different for me idk why
Btw has that contest ended yet?
I think they forgot about it
I ain’t winning
Best of luck
Knew what I wanted to do and took and submitted it in 5 mins if the contest opening
You too!
I also did not enter. I was busy playing skate. (2007)
That NDA agreement skipped a heartbeat
I felt like i had to add the year or i was going to be banned lmao
Hahah that is why i put the year i was like wait a min
Nda when I boot up up skate.
Neither am i, so theres prob gonna be some other talented peeps with some amazing photos 
man u should rlly see the cool tricks and grabs and grinds u can do in this game man not many ppl get the chance to play it (skate. ₂₀₀₇)
My heart skips a beat every single time cause of the NDA breakers… its pure trauma at this point lmao
Lmaoo this got me so good cause iT was so tiny
yoyo
How long does it usually take for the giveaway winners to receive their items?
3-4 weeks once the contest eligibility verification closes. (I’m usually much faster, but was in Canada last week).
I should have them packed up and shipped by this weekend, barring any delays.
Usually takes about 3 days to arrive, depending on where you live and customs.
🤔 I think it would be hilarious if for like the final sweepstake before launch you and cuz hand deliver a random winner 🤣
W idea im trynna play the new game already
Hear me out guys
there is skate. (2007) and skate. (2025)
but there is no Skate 1
Skate 2 and Skate 3, but no Skate 1 or Skate 4
🤔 did you know most content that get sequels dont tend to start with a numbered version ^^
Well yeah, but my focus was the period
it isn't skate. 2, it's Skate 2
I want this noow, its been 14 years
does anyone have access to the beta here?
Maybe
Are you maybe playing it rn
i don't play it
but it may be someone else, man
👨❤️💋👨
Nobody is allowed to speak of their involvement since they signed the NDA.
Alluding to that fact would also be a dead giveaway, too 
By the way, sick PFP
Thank you! It's Katz from Courage the Cowardly Dog!
Oooh sweet
I shaded him blue


Sup yall!

is there somewhere or someone to chat to regarding a issues about playtest
Check #frequently-asked-questions-and-more and https://www.ea.com/games/skate/faq for info on Playtesting.
Morning everyone!
Good good, woke up late today; which is nice- means i finally got some sleep
Nice indeed
Hello good mates
hey huck
Heyo!!
Yo yooo
How are you
oh nice
Aww it doesn't like Google's GIFs
Hello
Bored out of my mind hahha
Same here
Right ??? Lol
U home or at work mini?
Hey everyone!
hey massa
Today is both! I work in a call center. Today is my wfh day. But then i am back in office rest of week
ohhh cool!
Yeah just got off a 45 min call lmaoo
I hate early morning classes
My 8:30 class requires that I leave the house at 7:30 in the bloody morning, which means I'm waking up at 6 which my body cannot do
I'm literally staying up all night now
And it isn't helped by the fact that it takes me an hour each way to get to uni from where I am currently
I love uni, if you couldn't tell
And my laptop is running at max fan speed to watch a YouTube video
speaking of youtube vids
i just watched a danish youtuber in new york, where he tried out self driving in a tesla, and the things the tesla is able to in the US compared to Europe is wild, over here we can't put full self driving on-
wow luxury
'murica is privileged 😔
I'm just watching heaps of RussianBadger vids
What time is it for you?
I'm 99.9% sure that it's exactly the same time as you
Unless you're somewhere significantly far from home
Okay, so 3:50 AM
Yep
I bet your morning class are gonna be so much fun if you stay up for any longer lmao
3:50 AM, chugging on a 1.25L of Pepsi
Dude, I won't wake up in time if I sleep now
I gotta be out the house by 7:30
I'd have to wake up in a little bit over 2 hours
That isn't worth it
Just wake up by sheer will
That’s what I do if something important needs doing haha
Oh, plus, more incentive for me to wake up early today
It is Valentine’s Day after all
ADHD tho
Plus, I do not have the sheer will to get me out of bed
Ope, and I looked at Thursday
I have that too, I just understand the consequences if I do or don’t manage to do a thing
First class at 9am
I still don't trust myself to wake up
I am excited for today, regardless
Gonna send myself broke taking my girlfriend out today 😂
Valentines will be tomorrow for me
Nevertheless, I'll still be alone 😎
I've never been that much excited for Valentine's Day, but that's because I've been single for 99.9% of my life
It's usually a reminder of "ope, i'm still alone, fun."
Never had more of a reason than now, in my personal opinion
First proper Valentine’s Day in a relationship, the first one didn’t last long enough to reach it 💀🤣
My Valentine's Day is probably just gonna be scrolling on Bumble or something
Whilst fighting the chronic sleep deprivation
Mine will be like any other day tbh
I can't wait to move into my room at college this year
I’m just gonna head to the city, find a nice spot for dinner
Could’ve gone out for drinks too, since me and her are old enough, but I don’t have a proper ID yet
Hopefully yours will be better than mine
Oh, trust, it is
This year, my room is goated
Oh, by the way, utterly off topic
But I have a drink to recommend to you
Mine is small, dirty, and my neighbors are wonderful little fellas who don't AT ALL ruin every single one of my nights
I got a Grad Apartment (like, I'm a third year, but I'm also doing a Cert IV so I have no clue how the hell I got given one)
Had that for two years
I'll move soon hopefully
Trying to sleep at 2am while listening to doof doof doof through the walls
no me its people screaming and banging against the walls
But yeah, my room this year is so sick
sweet
Like, I cannot put into words how mad this room is
I've stayed in it once before for mid-year break, and it was unreal
I’ve been playing a lot of RPG’s recently
Actually been enjoying playing games for once, rather than it being a way to alleviate boredom
Bathroom, kitchen, TV, air-con (which I am sorely anticipating bc Melbourne is hitting 37C rn), hella storage space, separated from the undergrad rooms
Also, the email I got telling me that I got that place was absolutely crack up
is there a game tester only discord channel?
is anyone here part of the test i need help
They had a whole paragraph of "we try our best to accomodate to everyone, but some times you won't get the room you wanted on your preference list"
Like it sets you up for disappointment
we cant say
Next line: This year, you have been allocated Graduate Apartment
Wait til you work
Check your emails, the dedicated place to discuss play-testing would be there along with other important information, if you received it
And then, it goes on with "There are also some other undergraduate rooms available if you would like to switch..." absolutely bloody not
Oh, I am aware
And for future reference, don’t disclose that you’re part of the play-test in the public Discord server, that breaks NDA
don't disclose it anywhere
I haven't held a paid job, but I have done internships which is basically the same thing but for no money and for 2-3 months
That's the whole point of a non-disclosure agreement lol
I was lucky that I had the Hong Kong public transport system, bc it is genuinely the best transport system in the world
Ditto 
I can confidently say that

Melbourne's system isn't even in the same league as it
idk why people always want to get kicked or removed by saying stuff about the game
But yeah, super excited about my room
Most of the time it isn’t even intentional, but just simply because they don’t know any better, don’t take NDA seriously enough, or don’t read their email thoroughly
Or even a mixture of the three
Plus it's actually close to uni and has convenient tram lines that get me there quickly
Richmond isn't even that far away: it's just really annoying to get anywhere you need to go
I'd say it's always like that- breaking NDA is a felony, and even if people don't care, it's not something you'd want on your back-
for clarity the company cannot impose those charges, that lies with the government based on speculative damages caused by the breach
still not something you'd want to go about doing
I wouldn’t say it’s a felony, more like breaking a corporate agreement
Where it crosses the barrier from breaking that agreement, and moving into felony territory, is when they leak sensitive information/data directly from the play-test
Though I’m not well-versed in laws outside Australia regarding this topic, so I may have an entirely different perspective
Honestly I don't know X)
There was the guy who leaked some stuff about GTA VI, who got into massive trouble, I think?
Haha, same
I just know not to do the wrong thing
Yeah exactly lol
Ok, but, if I may
The GTA IV guy literally leaked gameplay, documents, etc
We're talking about a guy who entered the chat and went "game tester chat?"
It's not really in the same league
Yeah, I don’t know all the specifics, but he got placed on some kind of permanent list/arrest until he solemnly promised not to do anything like that ever again
And he pretty much said “I will do it again if you let me off”
Yeah
He can’t even go on a computer unless someone’s watching him
Honestly, game leaks are kinda annoying
Just let it be a surprise, that's half the fun
I mean, I’d be that cautious too, he was on house arrest and hacked into something with just an Amazon Firestick and a TV
A Firestick lmaooo
Exactly hahaha
amazing, there's speculation that he was scooped up and recruited afterwards by a goverment agency, and covered as "a lifetime sentence"
He's now working for the Daidoji faction
I wonder how many people would even understand such a niché reference, other than you and me lol
Yeah lol
Such a good game though
Can't wait for my new laptop so I can play Judgement
yeah, he got super sued - but also, it directly is related to HOW you access the info you leak.
like if you get invited to a playtest/closed doors alpha/etc. and leak, that's seems more civil than criminal (I'm not a lawyer). but if you hack into a server to get the info and leak, it's criminal AND civil (the crime of hacking, plus the civil damages you can be sued for). it's also dependent on what is leaked. game builds, campaigns vs. employee personal data, etc.
mostly, game companies just ban folks from their accounts when they break the Terms of Service/leak NDA'd stuff.
it's not unheard of - especially if someone shows extreme skill and technical prowess - for someone to be turned and become a whitehat.
Aaaah alright, I get it now
Like that one guy who hacked in the NASA files and discovered completely crazy things...
Oh, before I forget
By the way hey Jeff, how you doing?
exactly. that's criminal.
excellent!
Gonna put the stickers on if I get the new laptop
i'm good. stoked for a busy day and already on my second bottle of water.
Yeah, and the NASA isn't exactly SmallVideoGames Co., with two employees in the middle of Nowherecity, Russia
hahahh. fo sho
That's great to hear, hope you'll have enough time to do what you have to- and enough water
water - for sure
time - if I don't, there's always tomorrow. 😉
I need more water now lol
guys if I signed up on my own and didnt inv 3 people, have i lost the ability to invite those 3 people? or can i still do it ?
the window closed last weekend before the playtest confirmations went out (and let's not talk about confidential stuff in the Discord).
Window for what 👀
for the play.test invites
I fail to see the use of the skateplaytesting email address where you're supposed to send questions about the ongoing playtest you participate in if it's not read or answered :(
water? damn, u truly have the most delicate and premium of liquids on ur hands rn.
you can't talk about it here, aaaand
check your email
I'm not talking about anything related to the NDA
this is NDA, and im not fully sure about what ur talking about, but the tests are made for getting feedback
and i would assume that, if full circle gets 1000 feedbacks on lets say, a glitch that makes u fly through the air or like- the game dosen't work for me
they will 100% look into that
but if 1 guy goes "i don't like that u can climb" it most likely will be ignored, cause its not something full circle finds a problem to the game
You're assuming everything here lol
I'm just wondering about the use of this email address for feedback if it's not actually processed
yes- thats- how using public information works, u take what u know, u use the information ur allowed to talk about, and analyze, speculate and form realistic conclusions-
Mornin, Skate fam. :3
gekko!
mornin gekkota
ea sent a swarm of thousands of locusts to my small apartment after they found out im bald
Sup, Luna! How u be?
Mornin trekeln! 🤙
How are you handling?
good good, working on content, paying a huge amount of money take my drivers license (its expensive here in Denmark, and the tests are very complicated compared to the US) and writing an application / working on 60 sec short film about myself for film school
Handling well. Working a day shift instead of a night shift, so bit of an adjustment.
Ouch- I get that, it's painful, good luck
Sheesh! Sounds like u got a full plate! Hope u pass your driving test! Good luck to ya. :3
Thanks. :3
thank u thank u! imma need it
U got this homie! 💪
dont forget the ideas we talked about last week lol
Refresh my memory. 🤔
Last week, I talked with Luna about ideas for her little film
In off-topic
Can't send a link but- it's there
Ohhhhh gotcha. 😅
you are 100% right. doesnt help that the mods here can't communicate like normal people!
pardon? which moderator spoke out of turn? (the folks above are all community members - mods don't chat, they moderate)
feedback is on the private playtest forums. that link was sent in the emails to participants.
can any1 tell me where to find good pants? i'm too poor for jnco or sum
thrift shops rock
thank you
Can confirm. I bought all my fav clothes from thrift stores 💪
I really want to get a jacket for if I need to look smarter
But casual smart
Like, all I got is hoodies
Like a nice green jacket would go far
Mhhh🤔 seems your Favourite color is green
... probably
I like green but I think i like black a lil more
i live green, i breathe green, i eat green, i drink green
OH you really love green
Y E S .
Green is pretty sweet
Im more of a purple kinda person, which is odd- since i have dyed my hair blood red lmao
And my fav hoodie is red, etc.
i dyed my hair green once-
When I had my anime hair (spikey Goku Super Saiyan hair) I had it white blonde with black tips, then shaved it into a mohawk of various colors (blue, green, black with red tips, pink, red, purple).
hair dye is fun.
Purple does go pretty hard
Its so fun! Gives u an extra way of showing off personality
I've never dyed my hair before
I'm fine with the standard dark brown I've got going on'
A green mohawk sounds insane
i worked at a restaurant/bar where the owner hated mohawks. like, it was a very chill/relaxed place (we all looked like we stepped out of a thrift shop and still had change in our pockets) but "NO MOHAWKS" (in Austin, Tx, of all places!). And I usually kept it under a beanie/hat, but one day I was taking some drinks out to a table and had my green 'hawk up and proud, with some Beastie Boys and Johnny Cash on my bar playlist.
I round the corner and there he was - the owner (retired cop). "Whose music is this?" Me: Mine.
He took $40 out of his wallet. "Keep playing this stuff. The guests are having a good time."
After that, he just called me Spike. And the rule was abolished.
@dull pilot are you ea staff
That's an awesome story, and a very sweet one too!
Jeff "Spike" Braddock sounds cool as heck
yes, I'm the global community manager for the skate. franchise and also Discord architect for all official EA servers. what's up? how can I help (as long as it's not about the playtest, playtest emails, access to the playtest, or non-public information)?
And, your boss seems like he was chill
When I worked, my boss was kinda creepy-
He was... standing there, looking at us for a good 10 minutes, then left
Thats so sick! Holy moly! And Spike? Sounds like u couldve been lead guitarist in a band- kinda like SLASH etc.
because of my laugh, one of my ex-colleagues (back when I worked at EA Austin) used to call me Sweettooth (like from Twisted Metal).
I've had an assortment of .. interesting .. nicknames. hahah
Jeff Spike Sweettooth B.
That's one way to roll
Yeaaa can relate to that haha
I've thought of dying my Mohawk green. so far I've had blue, purple, blonde, black & a blue/black. right now it's in need of a dye cos the purple is all gone now lol
of course besides my natural color of brown anyway lol
So i couldn’t stay away from netflix, renewed my sub there, now im watching love on the spectrum, its- so hillarious, and cute 
Now we just need some movies on there about skating, and its all set. 
I think at one point there was a documentary on a skater...of course now I can't remember who it was on. also not sure if it's still on there...or if I could be thinking of a different streaming service, I'm not fully sure lol
I might come across it eventually haha
Lmk if you do!
For sure!
weeeeellllllll I found it...but it's on discovery+, called Reaching the Sky about a 13yo girl who was gonna be an Olympic skater (it came out in 2021)
Ohhhh sick!
I thought so too! may have to watch it again here soon
Ohhh that sounds familiar
All streets are silent on Hulu is my new favorite
Or "all the streets are silent"
Just made rice and chicken, banger meal istg
Classic!
Truly! It can never go wrong, and for now; never had rice and chicken that tastes bad
Gonna post a pic of me with a mohawk and my previous boss on Battlefield in #creative - but note: someone switched our faces. LOL It's my FB banner because .. it oddly works. HAHAH
Ayyy you posted it after allq! Love the hair 🤘
after all
Hi Everyone!
Its ygk! 
Yoyo what's good YGK
Heyo
Hi Luna

Wassup Luna & Kaiza

Heck yeah. That sounds good
Favorite skate brand? And why?
Zero, cause that's the one i picked when i played THUG when i was younger
skate. vr?? lol
I used to be real big on Sk8mafia and Real Skateboards
uuu @dull pilot did we just get a new twitter bot? :O
yeah. just noticed it sorta went nuts.
thats fine, love the new look of it tho!
yeah. it's the best bot i've found so far.
Luna do you skate IRL?
Started summer 2023, but then came snow and rain soooo- not atm, but im learning and intend to keep learning when weather gets better
I even built a new board 1 month ago
Why u ask?
Just curious
Oki doki
Oh awesome! I remember that video, was so nice
Hope yall have a nice evening, and stay positive!

I want to stop shaving my beard untill new news on Skate. come out 😂
I am SHOCKED creeds new tour isn't a stadium tour. They haven't even sold out yet near me and it includes three doors down, finger eleven and others
Arena* not stadium
Wont be too long! If playtst is 6 weeks long that Braddock said started last week according to #game-announcements
Then it ends in March. So in April we will get Playtst Highlights !
But hopefully a Boardroom drops before then (;
I am not expecting anything before April or so tbh, its a patience game

The legend, the olympic skateboarding champion
NONE OTHER THAAAAN, theeee
YUTornado!!! 
guys is the new skate game technically a skate 4 or is it a reboot of the skate franchise? having the same name as Skate 1? which was also called Skate with a dot
reboot
It's not a reboot. @plush carbon
skate. is the evolution of the franchise.
it's not a sequel, a reboot, a remaster, or remake.
it's the next step. and the team at Full Circle are focused on building a game that will have longevitiy and staying power, while sharing the steps of development along the way.
Oh, my bad.
I saw somewhere, on some website some time ago that it was a reboot of some sorts
Have wifi for like 2 min, hi
And bye in case it cuts out before I see anything else here haha
Actually it's written on a lot of websites it's a reboot
^_^/
Hi, Sky
Those websites are wrong
Enjoying your vacation?
Aye!
I guess we can just say skate. is... a game. If it's "not a sequel, a reboot, a remaster, or remake", it's... something
an evolution of the franchise, although i'm not sure what it really means
that looks really cool
where is this?
Also sorry I didn't get a notification for some reason
Royal Caribbean - Harmony of the Seas - middle of the Gulf of Mexico
nice
Glad you’re having fun!!
Cruises are the best!
i’ve been hearing rumors that skate is going to have a console play chess has anybody else been hearing that
it will, probably this year
Sometime this year, it’s been confirmed
@hidden bronze thank you for the answer I assume it’s gonna be early this year because they need to get the game out this year
nobody wants to release a game the same year GTA6 coming out
If they’re only just doing console tests this year, I don’t believe they’re going to rush themselves to get it out this year
Yeah, obviously we don’t want them to rush the game but time is not permitting but thank you for your time
Plus, it wouldn’t matter whether it comes out in the same year, it’s not like skate. and GTA VI will be releasing simultaneously
OK well I’ve been patiently waiting this long. I can wait a little longer.
Same for us all
Gotta do our best to be patient
breaking bad!!!!!! best series ever u should watch it on netflix
New board room dropping today? Just saw the tweet
yep, we're doing console testing this year. just haven't locked a date yet. when we do, we'll share it.
not yet. working on one.
Sweet!! Cant wait
Where did you hear that from?
Tweet is back up now it was gone for a bit https://twitter.com/skate/status/1757817100532424964
Its a clip from the first board room I thought it was new at first
Yeah usually after playt3sting they’ve been consistent in releasing board rooms
Well, I’m ready whenever that is
Seeing public comments on Skate. Is real YIKES so much negativity, but it’s ok! The love the devs put in and the community together will definitely soar through when time comes
Is skate 3 a sequel to skate 2?
Sorta. There's a theory that skate 3 is what happens to your skater after they died.
Imagine meat man falls into a giant oven and is killed off only to return as Steak Man
What ab skate 2 being a sequel to skate 1?
Yeah. I feel like that scans like a normal sequel
I like to think Skate 3 was before Skate 2
Honestly super curious to hear your explanation on that. 🤔
I'd totally play as steak man lol
We learn, in Skate 2, that ||Fabio died||, and in Skate 3 there's a DLC that allows you to play- as Fabio.
The Art Gallery DLC takes place in the old San Van, the only thing new is the Maraffa skatepark.
In the Super Ultra Mega Park, there's a banner saying "Port Carverton vs. San Vanelona". Shouldn't it say New San Vanelona instead?
In the banners near the Hartley Stadium, the years 2007, 2008 and 2009 are mentionned, despite Skate 3 apparently taking place in 2010.
And lastly, it could all be a coverup- the skater "spent time in prison" during the events of Skate It, and that's why he doesn't recognize San Van. I think that, even if you're in prison for five years, you'd still feel that earthquake. That's why I think that while the earthquake was happening, he was enjoying Port Carverton.
... Or it could just be me nitpicking and saying dumb stuff, which isn't out of the ordinary either.
san vanelona is skate 1s map
Yes
Skate 2's map is New San Vanelona
skate.'s San Vanelona has been destroyed due to an earthquake
yeah
Aight, this is based. I can totally see the being an official theory.
Thanks ^^"
the craziest theory i’ve seen is that your skate 3 character died at the start of the game, when you jump the shark, and then you are in “skater heaven” with no security and a perfect skating world
heard of it too
Heard of that one too
Haha yea thats a good one
Hi, I wanted to ask if skate will also be on android or only iOS, thank you
we'll have more to share on supported mobile operating systems, etc. as we move forward.
it will have a multiplayer game or voice chat
and I still have one question for you about a game that will soon be published by EA, but the developer is Tencent and Timi Studio
@dull pilot I would like to ask when EA will release Need for Speed Mobile
I don't think he can really answer that
I better be able to play on my n gage
i don't work on that game. might want to follow official NFS channels on social for updates.
ok thanks will have skate mobile multiplayer and voice chat
we haven't shared details aboout the mobile version yet. anything that has been shared is in #announcements #frequently-asked-questions-and-more and, of course, https://skate.game/news
but there are already leaks everywhere that there will be a beta test on iOS
i'd recommend - as this is your first day in the server - you review the #rules to avoid infractions that could limit your ability to participate in this server.
I cannot wait for this
Rumors are silly
It’s bc people don’t know and are left to speculate on the unknown. Before helldivers launch ppl were mostly mixed until hands on impressions and word of mouth
yo does anyone know what time winners get announced for the screenshot thing
might be a dumb question mb if so
Still so sad i didn’t enter in time for that
i missed a couple a while back so i jus decieded to put notis on aint missed one yet
Will do thank you
Haha I got you I was worried for even asking
Best skating game ever in your opinion & what made it special to you? If you don’t mind me asking
Saw it thank you and understood.
Somebody do a kickflip!
Man I just saw another person using that windmill modded shirt
I got their name and stuff but idk what 2 do wit it
Hoping I can win by default since it seems that no one entered it 😭😅
(Sry for the ping)
It’s also funny because I’ve played the skate franchise & plenty of other classic skate boarding games, but don’t remember any of them or their mechanics😭.
Time for a refreshment😌🍹
i'll announce once we've selected finalists, verified eligibility, and picked 20 winners.
i mean, that's a loaded question.
best could be the one that got me into skateboarding, or video games, or both.
or it could mean the one i spent so much time in.
or the one that I have awesome memories of sitting around my N64 with my pals to beat each run in one try before the music ends.
or it could be the one that exposed me to more music, more styles.
i love them all. but i definitely only have one tatt'd on me.
skate.
Thug 2 was nuts
K
Skate 1 opened my eyes to what the medium could be
Iove them both in their own ways
Tony hawks introduced me and I played them all the way up to and including American wasteland
I started with 720° in the arcade. Then Skate or Die!, then T&C Surf Design: Wood & Water Rage, then Shaun White, THPS, THAW, THUG, THUG 2, THPS2/3/4, Skate (2007), Skate 2, Skate 3, OlliOlli, Skate City, SXL, Session, SkateBIRD. I love 'em all.
Aye that’s dope I haven’t played a skateboarding game in so freaking long the last time it was on PS2 years & years ago.
Hopefully this experience brings me back to when I was young in a way & helps encourage me into getting back to what’s actually fun instead of these
“ desperation “ put together games nowadays & I think I’ve played American Wasteland I don’t remember🤦🏽♂️but so many memories man !!! Jack ( A ) movies, Bam Margera, Rob & Big etc. everyone was literally murking everything from MTV to having kids go out & skate all day everyday to try and get sponsored AH THE GOOD OLE DAYS😅.
I just bit my tongue sneezing
Did it hurt & feel good at the same time lol?
Just pain
Oops I’m sorry🤕 * Tries to Ollie down a pyramid *
I’ll die before I wake😂
Oh yeah last thing though, am I allowed to talk about anything regarding * you know what * ? Like just ask a question just wondering if it’s available or the next date would be Tuesday Mar. 19
THUG got me into skating in IRL
Kareem Campbell , Zooyork mixtapes, etc was my gold era in skating
Funny thing but I don’t think it was even a skate game that had gotten me interested in skateboarding
Well as a Black American who grew in a area where skating was barely a scene here. I was exposed to skating through games
I remember we only had 1 skate shop in the area that was 80 miles from me
It was 1080° snowboarding game, where I fell in love with snowboarding, but it’s a slight problem to snowboard in real life when your town gets barely any snow, then I discovered skateboarding since they’re similar and I also fell in love with that
Damn that’s tough
Yeah now we got like three shops now
I waited 12 years to see my park finally get the recognition and funding to build a real park. The small skate communities are small, but growing all over. You really have to get the city involved since DIY is kinda hit or miss.
oh okay thanks for clearing it up 👍
are there fans of skate on here that don't skateboard irl but just enjoy virtual skateboarding in games?
i'm from the UK and in my town i've only ever seen one skater lmao
If it wasn’t for my community in the city we wouldn’t get much love from brands
Yeah I feel that.. only some pros coming in once in a blue moon brings good recognition around here. Unless it’s a smalltime local shop brand.
Hahah honestly may be very real! (;
Is the skate iOS email real ?
uh, probably not?
Did the email say go talk about the confidential contents of the email in the public discord? 😉
Probably not. Most likely said something like.. the contents of this email are under NDA and not to discuss it. So... let's not talk about EA Playtesting email contents, access/invites to the playtest, or the details of the playtest.
thank you!
Yeah, I like bagels but I don’t eat them often
@waxen apex yeah if we gotta choose one, they gotta be cinnamon raisin
YES!!
Best thing you could have said
@waxen apex well I’m new here so that’s relatively. The only thing I have said.
Welcome to the party!
Make sure to read the rules. A lot of people end up not reading them and get in trouble. They aren't like the average discord ruleset.
Goodmorning people, hows everybody doing?

Im good im good- just a lil tired
I can understand
Bagels are good
Hey people!
🤘
How you doing Mini?
I am up wayyy too late when i need to go to work haha wbu
Currently experiencing a dilemma lmao
hey massa, hey mini
Sup Trekeln!
Massaaaa!! 
Yooo! Luna!
The one and only
Das’ me!
The dilemma I’m experiencing is a difficult one
Do tell
I'm doing good, its my birthday today🎉 🎂
Happy birthday YGK!!!
Hope today’s going amazingly
Thanks man
Happy birthday YGK!
How are you?
Thanks! 👊 😎
Uh...
Still trying to figure out a shoe-related dilemma lmao
Hello
Hey Kaiza
What's up
what is it?
Hi! How are you?
I’ve wanted to get a pair of SB Dunk High Sweet Beets for a while now, since I really like em
But now, my local skateshop just stocked some SB Dunk Low Court Purples
Now I don’t know which ones I want more hahaha
Doing good! Yourself?
Get the Sweet Beets
I'd say get the High Sweet Beets
oh lol
You've wanted the Beets longer. If you don't get them, you'll probably regret your choice
Amazing
Yeah exactly
Touché, I just like both a metric ton
Beets
Fair enough, I’ll give it some thought as well
I’ll check if they still have Beets in stock on the other site too
Plus, the announcement for the Court Purples was only 25 minutes ago
Oh, and the thing is, the Court Purples are store only
And they stocked my local with pairs
The Beets would have to be delivered
Happy G Day 🤘
Which pair is the most expensive?
Thanks miniFreedom 
Hey @hidden bronze is looked up both. And High top Beets look soooo much cleaner
Looked up both and I have to agree
I like High-shoes better though so I might be biased
Theyre. Sick.
Can’t check the price on the court purples since they’re store only pairs, but they’d probably be $159.95 AUD
The Beets are $160 AUD, not including shipping
Ouch-
ouch ouch ouch-
But if the biggest difference is 5 cents, I think you should get the ones you wanted for a long time
Shipping’s free since they’re over $100, just checked
Oh nice
And they’re in stock
even better!
i just hit the first ever hippy flip on skate 1 mobile
I am Skate
NOW THAT. Is pure luxury 
Check #frequently-asked-questions-and-more and https://www.ea.com/games/skate/faq for info on Playtesting.
nobody knows
for the beta like how long take u to play it
i don't know
@dull pilot I don’t mean to bother you Jeff, but this bot’s sent this message in a few different channels
Police is actually outside my apartment right now
With searcher dogs etc.
Yet to find out what its about tho
how do people manage to fall in these
No clue
The bot didn’t even leave a link or anything 🤣
So dumb
Yeah
The bots are getting dumber

Kinda like the people who fall in them-
I'm curious though
How did they manage to ping here and everyone
... but I wasn't pinged?
U GOT AN EMAIL FROM EA : 
Its for EA FC or Apex Legends : 
I got a mail from EA saying..........
I got a free test for F1 23
It could've been cool
If the only experience I had with this franchise wasn't F1 '07 on the PSP several years ago
So the police knocked on my door, asked me alot about if i knew someone was selling ilegal drugs in my apartment block. Had no clue- so they moved on. Conclusion of todays story
**DONT DO DRUGS KIDS
**
Drink water and skate instead! 
Geez, sounds serious
Yea- they have checked trash cans and looked for who it could be here, but they were very nice!
Glad you’re alright though, could’ve been worse
Oh jeez-
Like Massa said glad you alright though
Yea, idk- police are almost basically nice here- i was just so confused cause i was like “HUUUUH, in my poopy little city? Nah no way” lmao
you live in a small town?
Oooohh lucky
Mhm! Super nice during summer
i can imagine
Anyone open a ticket yet?
I’ll make one now
I’ve been asleep for a little while
Well let trek answer first this way it isn't doubled up on the same issue
I didn't make one
Is this bot stupid 😭😭
It’s a bot
I know
The cops are awesome where I live too
Some places are just lucky i guess! 
Yeah for sure
Okay cool then Mass is good to go
Already submitted the moment I sent that message
What's up y'all! In Mexico and have signal all day woo! \^0^/
Hey Sky!!
Ayyy thats awesome!
Woah more vacation for you? Luckyyy
The vacation I really wanted, the last one was in-law obligation lol
Ahhhh fair enough
What's the difference between a seal and a sea lion?
An electron
usually the sea, the animals arent usually in the same hemisphere if im not mistaken
🤦♂️
i know, im hillaaaaaarious, that even after the answer is given, i can give an even dumber answer
Hahaha
Now I have a joke for dinner!
what's for dinner
