[sudden warren]

It is! But it'll be sick

[modest dagger]

another 5 years of playtesting

[hidden bronze]

Full Circle, a much smaller studio, having their stuff being compared to the works of Rockstar Games, a massive studio with employees in the 10,000+ range

It doesn’t sit right

[gray fjord]

People are doing that?

[lapis wharf]

the biggest game ever vs a game where you skateboard

...

same development time

[sudden warren]

Not even close

[restive star]

they could port skate 3 to pc and be done with it

[gray fjord]

The biggest game ever vs a game about a couple in LA

[modest dagger]

AND public feedback

[lapis wharf]

wow add more clothes wow make this animation look better

[sudden warren]

Reminder to all, your opinions are all welcome, but #rules

Keep it civil! We love everyone here

[gray fjord]

I love how the game is taking form

[zenith sand]

[lament juniper]

they could make a skate 3 port to pc and realese on steam bro would be crazy

[sudden warren]

Oh yea thinks have improved dramatically since the first public video of the tests

[upbeat gyro]

I know it wasn’t much but I’m so hyped, I can’t wait for the new skate

[sudden warren]

Heck yea!

[modest dagger]

they could use the money from steam sales to boost budget

[sudden warren]

Having a console test is HUGE. Means we are probably pretty close

[lament juniper]

2025 prolly

[lament juniper]

true

[gray fjord]

I can't wait for those to start

[carmine arch]

btw I just wanna ask, is there anything I'm possibly missing that would hinder my ability to get into the playtest such as missing a preference choice

[zenith sand]

[crimson wagon]

Console play test this fall, full game release next fall

[lapis wharf]

yeah summer 2025 is close af

[modest dagger]

yeah right

[gray fjord]

Why do people think it's next year

[minor wedge]

w skate 4

[minor wedge]

Dude

W SKATE.

[lapis wharf]

cause if it's not next year then it's never

[gray fjord]

That's a silly way of thinking

[modest dagger]

almost like 5 years of "we're working on it"

[lapis wharf]

me opening up skate in summer of 2025 and seeing a battle pass

[modest dagger]

honestly the battle pass can't really hinder the experience

[maiden lava]

That’s a home issue…

[gray fjord]

It's cosmetics

[maiden lava]

Father & son

[gray fjord]

Has it really been 5 years?

[modest dagger]

i get the customize your skater to fit your vibe but other than that nothing

[gray fjord]

I don't think that's serious

[modest dagger]

could be , maybe they started earlier than the announcement that they're back

[gray fjord]

Even if it's been 5 years why is that a bad thing

[modest dagger]

cause the highlights that we've started getting ever since the playtest started haven't really shown that much improvement

[zenith sand]

Check #frequently-asked-questions-and-more and https://www.ea.com/games/skate/faq for info on Playtesting.

[lapis wharf]

yep 2020

[gray fjord]

Are you crazy

[lapis wharf]

same year GTA 6 started development

[scenic gull]

Ye cause the skate council vid seems so long ago so they had least had a general idea

[modest dagger]

yes

[gray fjord]

They've shown massive improvement

[lapis wharf]

not really

[modest dagger]

in?

[gray fjord]

how can you not see the improvement

[gusty bough]

Yeah honestly gotta say was pretty disappointed with that reveal, especially bc it looked like the last plays test video I feel like that could of been saved for a blog update, still stoked for the game but that was a bit of a let down! 🤷‍♂️

[lapis wharf]

the original trailer that had textures and lighting in it is the best looking thing we've got LOL

[gray fjord]

The animations the characters the boards the world HOW

[modest dagger]

animations got smoother and cosmetics got more detail

[fleet star]

are they still sends invites for playtest, i´m waiting since the first announcement

[zenith sand]

Check #frequently-asked-questions-and-more and https://www.ea.com/games/skate/faq for info on Playtesting.

[lapis wharf]

that's just certain branded cosmetics and they didn't even make them 😭😭😭

[gray fjord]

Clearly you just need my autism, that'll help you notice the details

[lapis wharf]

they got them from the companies

[modest dagger]

seeing as it's a playtest shouldn't the cosmetics matter the least?

[zenith sand]

Check #frequently-asked-questions-and-more and https://www.ea.com/games/skate/faq for info on Playtesting.

[lapis wharf]

you literally just used that as a point though

[modest dagger]

i'm just sayin

[gray fjord]

Man I must be going crazy I thought everyone was as focused on the details as me

Clearly I'm very excited for this game

[modest dagger]

no one is saying that they're not

it's just that it feels like they've been focusing on the wrong things

[dawn hedge]

Foreal I've been dying to playtest skate.

[zenith sand]

Check #frequently-asked-questions-and-more and https://www.ea.com/games/skate/faq for info on Playtesting.

[gray fjord]

How tho

[modest dagger]

the last board talk was mainly about cosmetics...

[gray fjord]

Yeah the board talks focus on different topics

They've seemingly got a decent character customisation in the playtest, I imagine they're showing off what they currently have

[zenith sand]

Check #frequently-asked-questions-and-more and https://www.ea.com/games/skate/faq for info on Playtesting.

[pallid blade]

Oh damn I wonder if the Sammy mentioned in #game-announcements is the same Sammy from skate 2. The one that drained the pools

[modest dagger]

and with that decent customisation they could just tweak the things necessary and focus on the controls and others

[gray fjord]

The game has had, just fron looking at the trailers, significant improvements, to animation, the way the board connects to the world around it

[gray fjord]

That's what they have been doing tho, it's not like the whole team is on controls then customisation then controls

[tiny prism]

artists dont work on controls lol

[gray fjord]

The character team or whatever they're called focus on the character and the gameplay team focus on the nameplate

That's a very basic version but that's how it is

[modest dagger]

this is where my opinion ends cuz i haven't playtested at all 😭

[zenith sand]

Check #frequently-asked-questions-and-more and https://www.ea.com/games/skate/faq for info on Playtesting.

[gray fjord]

Those are being worked on all at once

[fringe halo]

Ngl the big announcement being that the game is still in pre pre alpha was a gut punch

[gray fjord]

It's understanding game development more than playing the play tests, I haven't played them myself

[fringe halo]

Modern game development sucks

[modest dagger]

i got pretty hyped when i saw the m corp takeover on social media

[gray fjord]

Same

[fringe halo]

Kinda expected a shadowdrop ngl

[gray fjord]

A shadow drop today?

[tiny prism]

well that was never gonna happen
set yourself up for major disappointment there lol

[fringe halo]

Doesn't help that the rest of the show didn't have much going for it

[gray fjord]

Of the game that's unfinished?

[modest dagger]

i just got into skate 2 like a couple months ago and it was a nice nostalgia trip

[pallid blade]

I need y'all to understand that the Devs announced skate. before they properly started making the game. With most other games, they announce the development only about a year before they're ready to release

[fringe halo]

Most live service games launch in beta

[gray fjord]

OK I gotta hop off my phone It's at 2%
Peace y'all

[tiny prism]

we arent even in actual alpha

[gray fjord]

This is an ALPHA
PRE PRE ALPHA

[fringe halo]

Wow that's crazy you guys

Thanks for the quality conversations

[modest dagger]

but they still had something to show rico nasty...?

[opaque salmon]

Think I'd rather the announcement a year before rather than getting teased for 5 years

[tiny prism]

I like the rate of announcements

[pallid blade]

Personally I'm a big fan of them showing us what the game is like from the very beginning of development, it gives the community a better chance of influencing the final product

[tiny prism]

Yup

[scenic gull]

But i understand the passion seems EAs new model is all about team leads heading big projects they wanna pitch

[modest dagger]

it's a different take that game devs don't approach ngl

[gloomy island]

ok i have one question

[soft hamlet]

Hey guys

[fringe halo]

Very unusual for AAA

[zenith sand]

Check #frequently-asked-questions-and-more and https://www.ea.com/games/skate/faq for info on Playtesting.

[scenic tartan]

4 years for 30 seconds of Fortnite textures 🙄
It’s gonna take longer for them to make the game than it took us to GET them to make it 😂

[tiny prism]

You aren't supposed to tell anyone you were in any playtest but you dint have to keep signing up

[zenith sand]

Check #frequently-asked-questions-and-more and https://www.ea.com/games/skate/faq for info on Playtesting.

[pallid blade]

I think it's refreshing, if skate. ends up being a massive success then hopefully more Devs will adopt their approach

[scenic gull]

I’m down for more testing as this is gonna be a early access game anyway

[pallid blade]

Nah you're still on the list, just gotta wait

[modest dagger]

not necessarily

[gloomy island]

oh gotcha

and i suppose but i saw no gameplay. the NDA covers mentioning as well?

[tiny prism]

The nda covers anything at all related to a playtest

[gloomy island]

awesome. hope the pool gets selected for the console tests

[gray fjord]

God

[fringe halo]

The skit felt classic skate

[soft hamlet]

I was hyped when I saw it at summer fest, I just hope it doesn't fumble

[tiny prism]

Felt that too

[gray fjord]

Wait skate. was at summer games festival??

[soft hamlet]

Yeah

[modest dagger]

idk how that is cuz i was a literal child during those days but tim is an amazing comedian

[gray fjord]

The one summer games festival I choose to not watch and it has skate. Of course

[tiny prism]

It felt legit absolutely

[obsidian meadow]

Yeah honestly a bit disappointing for them to hype it up like that only to announce something that was already announced in the Board Room video a couple weeks ago. Like they really sent out all those packages and promo just to say console playtesting.

[zenith sand]

Check #frequently-asked-questions-and-more and https://www.ea.com/games/skate/faq for info on Playtesting.

[soft hamlet]

You missed a few bangers

[tiny prism]

Yeah sgf wasn't as boring as I thought it was gonna be

[pallid blade]

They've already got their segment on the skate YouTube channel ( #youtube-feed )

[gloomy island]

i strongly disagree. well not boring, but wasn't anticipating all but 3 things i saw there. and the val console announcement was a surprise

[violet tapir]

The bean game and skate were the best moments

[tiny prism]

Good thing we can both have differing opinions

I wasn't expecting Alan wake 2 dlc
Ultra hype to play that tomorrow night

[scenic tartan]

You didn’t miss anything

[violet tapir]

Oh yeah Alan wake 2 dlc looks incredible

[pallid blade]

Killer bean unironically looks fun lol

[scenic nova]

FACTS

[modest dagger]

killer bean is based

[violet tapir]

Absolutely dude I gotta play it haha

[fringe halo]

wish EA would give us some HD remasters of the OGs, builds hype for other series relaunching

[maiden lava]

What this trailer with Tim and M Corp did was provide some context on world building/story. That’s some progress! I also notice new brand (Dickies, they also commented on Skate’s Insta), clothing, spots/areas compared to other trailers/gameplay I’ve seen.

[pallid blade]

I don't know how the dev has matched the look of the original killer bean so well

[modest dagger]

skate 2 on an emulator sucks and it's sad

[tiny prism]

It'd be rad but they've already said they don't plan on doing it

[soft hamlet]

Might reinstall skate 3 and start practicing if the controls are similar

[onyx anvil]

@grave night can we get a reaction?

[modest dagger]

excited for the world building!!

[fringe halo]

I get that the game is pimped out with T Mobile and other brands but I'd be fine with losing all that to have it on modern consoles

Music would be the biggest loss :'(

[soft hamlet]

Kinda curious as to what sponsors we could have

[modest dagger]

they got the soundtrack on spotify

[soft hamlet]

And I'm sure we will still get some banger music, it's not a skating game without tunes

[fringe halo]

Could do what Death Standing directors cut did by ditching Monster

[jolly violet]

Whole time they should just release the skate series on console🤷🏽‍♂️

Idk why they haven’t done that yet

[sudden warren]

Huh?

[jolly violet]

Or why they haven’t did it at all

[tiny prism]

It's so far only on console lmao

[modest dagger]

it's on the older generations...

[sudden warren]

I can play every skate game on my series x

[jolly violet]

I know I broke my Xbox tho

[tiny prism]

Skill issue

[jolly violet]

I play on PlayStation

[tiny prism]

You gotta blame Sony for that one

[modest dagger]

with minor frame tweaks

[sudden warren]

Ps3?

[jolly violet]

Definitely

[tiny prism]

Ps3 architecture was absolutely bonkers different

[jolly violet]

Sold it for a vr headset

[fringe halo]

Xbox goated for backwards compatibility and I've never even owned one

[tiny prism]

Basically nothing is ever leaving that console

[soft hamlet]

Lucky, I miss skate 2

[scenic gull]

CONSOLE TESTING

[jolly violet]

I love skate 2

[tiny prism]

Skate 2 is the one I haven't played in a long while that I really want to

[sudden warren]

Get the disc if you've never played!

[jolly violet]

U should man

[fringe halo]

Emulation community is carrying in keeping the old games alive

[soft hamlet]

I'm on series s

[fringe halo]

Second picking up Skate 2, it's got its own awesome vibe

[modest dagger]

honestly!!! i always boot up skate 3 when idk what to play

[scenic gull]

Cant wait to finally bust out my ps4 this fall

[tiny prism]

Don't own it and my 360 is controller-less :(

[fringe halo]

Was it confirmed for last Gen console?

[tiny prism]

I miss skate 2's map

Sweet that bodes well for steam deck performance

[tiny prism]

Huge true

[soft hamlet]

I know but I have skate 3 which is more than enough fun for now

[dull pilot]

skate. Will be on PS4/5, Xbox One/Series S/X, PC and we’re looking at mobile.

[grizzled orbit]

that's great

[sudden warren]

Love it

[soft hamlet]

Mobile? Damn that's a huge move

[modest dagger]

how exactly is mobile integration supposed to function?

[grizzled orbit]

it kinda sucks the skate franchise never got ported to modern platforms

[fringe halo]

Is playing on Linux/Steam Deck ruled out? Would love to play this game in the city

[dull pilot]

we’ve been testing.

[fringe halo]

Seems like the kinda game that would control perfect on mobile

[soft hamlet]

Haven't seen a decent mobile skating game in years so this would be huge if pulled off right

[violet tapir]

@grave night I just got hired at M-Corp a few days ago and now the company has gone under…. Thanks for nothing Bob 🥴

[past arch]

ppl without consoles or pc gonna love this one👍

[neon lion]

I am also retracting my investments.

[sudden warren]

I believe! For now....

[violet tapir]

I sold my house and invested it all in M-Corp 😳

[neon lion]

Yeah- my wife is pissed I'll say that.

[fringe halo]

Jokes on you, perfect time to buy low 🧠 (this is financial advice)

[neon lion]

well, ex wife now

[tiny prism]

What's her number

[sudden warren]

Woah

[violet tapir]

[grizzled orbit]

i hope the game's soundtrack will actually be good

[fringe halo]

Anyways I'm gone until the next announcement, keep doing what you're doing team skate. 🫡

[tiny prism]

Jeff posted his ska Playlist the other day and it was 455 songs so I think we're in good hands

[plush finch]

Afternoon fellows and felines 👋🏽

[maiden glen]

Oh yeah, it's all coming together >:)

[edgy shell]

ngl I am a bit disappointed with how the story is painting the setting. Makes it seem like the city will be more like Skate 3 when I really loved the more "lived-in" elements of the map from Skate 1/2.

Area just outside Slappy's felt grimy and authentic to the street environment

[waxen apex]

We haven't seen enough to even figure that much. For all we know, the city and game could look completely different when it drops.

[edgy shell]

Made it seem like the city is getting abandoned

[pallid blade]

I'm thinking that because of Mongo Corp falling apart, we'll have a mix of skate 3 areas and skate 1/2 areas

Could be cool if the map gets updated and the area deteriorates over time but that would be a whole lot of work in the Devs!

[edgy shell]

I'm just worried about leaning too much into the skater's paradise.

[radiant latch]

My brother, you can use apple or Spotify now on console and pc

[edgy shell]

idk if I'm alone in saying Skate 3 made me feel a little depressed like it was post-rapture

[grizzled orbit]

that's lame tho

[pallid blade]

Yea, I think people have voiced their opinions on what they'd want for a map in #1062053586537820210 but who knows

I do agree that the grunge of the first two games gives a much better map than the skater heaven map that skate 3 gives

[daring vigil]

That M Corp update was sick

Hopefully they aren't feeling like they need to rush the release. Only thing I'm nervous about

[edgy shell]

I'd say they've been stoic on the point where it'll be out when it's ready

[waxen apex]

I want a balance of grunge and spots/locations that look newly constructed and whatnot. Mix both styles

[edgy shell]

If they felt rushed at all, they would've produced a release projection with this trailer given the production that went into it

[daring vigil]

Agreed. Seeing a relatively famous actor doing a short for the game gave me a knee jerk, "Oh shoot they're gonna drop a release date" reaction

[pallid blade]

Yea, or maybe that short was to get lots of people's eyes back in the development just before they announce something big? 👀 (I'm coping so hard)

[cinder osprey]

Couldnt watch the summer game fest skate part 😦 whats new ?

[edgy shell]

Culturally skating is nowhere near as popular as it was in the 90s/00s. I don't want a vibe that makes me feel like it's skater afterlife. I want to feel new and break onto the scene again and feel uninvited doing that

[daring vigil]

My fear

So no beta ? want to try the game :c

[charred lodge]

Beta?

[pallid blade]

Have a look at the newest posts in #youtube-feed and #game-announcements 👍

[pallid blade]

We still in pre pre alpha man lol

[edgy shell]

I want to know if I'm alone in feeling this way. Feels like I've been taking crazy pills with my opinion.

[royal stump]

why tf is it called just "skate." 💀

[bold elbow]

did somebody call for a chimneykricket? ❤️

[royal stump]

like why ain't is smth like "SkatePulse" even worse but idgaf

[violet tapir]

Cause skateboard

[pallid blade]

Yea I get where you're coming from. The first two games felt like counter culture whereas the third feels like skateboarding is the same popularity level as football.

[neon owl]

It makes sense why it’s just called skate. if you really think about it

[pallid blade]

Yea, not a continuation of the previous trilogy

[royal stump]

🤓

[neon owl]

This is a new company first iteration into the franchise. Trying to keep the core enjoyment and controls in a fresh light.. like a decade later

[bold elbow]

yah keep in mind blackbox literally doesnt exist anymore

[neon owl]

It would only make sense to call it skate 4 if it was still black box

[pallid blade]

Rip black box 😔

[neon owl]

But just because it’s not black box doesn’t mean that you should lower your expectations

[bold elbow]

they had some golden devs ❤️

not to shame these new ones

[neon owl]

Full circle is still doing a good job and listening to your feedback.

[violet tapir]

We don’t have black box but we still have

[pallid blade]

Yea there's a bunch of Devs from black box that are now in full circle right? Like Cuz and Darren

[violet tapir]

I believe in Cuz 🙏

[neon owl]

Yea. It’s not like the core of the franchise has disappeared.

[bold elbow]

amen ❤️

in cuz we trust

[pallid blade]

I think if anything it's only evolved

[royal stump]

is this a game or smth?

[radiant latch]

I can promise you they aren’t rushing a thing

[neon owl]

Yes. Just evolved to match current year. A decade or so later. Of course there would be modern day influence

[pallid blade]

No it's a choose your own adventure book 🤗

[royal stump]

oh.. can i have the discord invite?

[bold elbow]

speaking of adventure book, this mcorp thing!

[neon owl]

Anyway.. I’m waiting on my check from mongo corp now that I’m a sales manager

[bold elbow]

how ya feel about it?

[pallid blade]

Just head to your local book store and pick up a copy!

[royal stump]

I hope your house burns down while your sleeping

[bold elbow]

call me ronald mcdonald im deadass lovin it ❤️

[pallid blade]

I'll sleep in tinfoil so I come out evenly cooked 🙂

[bold elbow]

must be nice to be a silly influencer and get a vest .-.

[royal stump]

💀

[neon owl]

I love it

[pallid blade]

Dude what I wouldn't do for all this exclusive merch coming out

[neon owl]

I’ve already been a collector

So yea.. I love this

[bold elbow]

im seeing people with vests that can barely skate

whats up with ya EA?

[pallid blade]

Yea like content creators, makes sense really

[bold elbow]

wheres the real skater love at EA?

[neon owl]

They kept your game alive

[viral solstice]

Great dude

[bold elbow]

maaaaan you say that like they tipping me or adding a bonus like this game shouldve been a series eons ago

[neon owl]

I mean the silly influencers

[bold elbow]

they dont even shreddd thouuuu

[neon owl]

Some of them do

[bold elbow]

wheres the clips

[viral solstice]

Who doesn’t?

[bold elbow]

that violin chick

are you kidding me with that one?

[neon owl]

There’s quite a few influencers who skate irl

[bold elbow]

red somethinhg

[pallid blade]

I mean does it matter? Some people just like to play games man

[viral solstice]

Including yourself

[neon owl]

I’m actually surprised that a real skater would gate keep a video game

[bold elbow]

ofcourse but if EA got money for all these vests why they giving it to the posers

[viral solstice]

Not you = Posers?

[bold elbow]

need to give a vest to koston or jamie foy or something

[bold elbow]

im not even mad like i said its just representation

[neon owl]

I know some people that go ridiculously hard at skating irl.. still do some off-the-wall, unrealistic stuff on skate

[pallid blade]

"posers" I don't think anyone that just plays the games are pretending that they skate irl. They don't have anything to prove lol

[visual oracle]

I am gonna toss a board at your kneecaps.

[bold elbow]

i eat those baby

[neon owl]

If you want the vest… you should invest into m-coin

[viral solstice]

Elliot Sloan loved the gear 🤷🏻‍♂️ Ricky Glaser, Garrett Ginner.. They all seem to enjoy it lol

[bold elbow]

im sorry, mcoin?

[neon owl]

Go to themcorpwebsite.com for more details on how to in’vest’

[violet tapir]

https://themcorpwebsite.com/invest

[bold elbow]

also

[neon owl]

And file a complaint if you’re unsatisfied

[scenic gull]

so you can call them rn?

[bold elbow]

whats up with the animations for tricks

[visual oracle]

doesn't Garrett Ginner actually skate

i am pretty sure he's posted videos of him skating.

[scenic gull]

question what does it actually say tho

[bold elbow]

better not be the same 3 animations for every trick thats gonna blow mine

[violet tapir]

He’s literally sponsored lmao

[viral solstice]

He competed in last berrics

[visual oracle]

oh.

[bold elbow]

i wanna see some steez, some flavor, some fire ❤️

[neon owl]

Here’s the thing.. real skaters don’t gatekeep these games

[visual oracle]

good for him then.

[violet tapir]

Garrett is super good

[bold elbow]

garretts cool

[pallid blade]

I think they're using mo-cap for the animations which is pretty neat

[visual oracle]

I've only seen his videos on like, Session/SXL, as well as some videos with his backyard skate spot

[viral solstice]

He really is. Better when its just for him and not comp which is fine

[bold elbow]

yah but it should still be dynamic in terms of landings and the push has to look real asf

[wraith snow]

He does yes!

[foggy pagoda]

So many people get into skating through games too. Think of what tony hawk pro skater did to the culture

and skate

[wraith snow]

I got into it bc of skate 3!

[viral solstice]

These animations and graphic type stuff do not need to be polished now. Mechanics, mapping, concepts and narrative is much harder to develop

[visual oracle]

Session's making me consider trying, but I have difficulties with actually doing that irl at the minute.

[pallid blade]

I mean I don't doubt they'll do that too. For earlier footage that we've seen it looks like the animation is a big deal to them

[small mirage]

anybody have tips for seatbelt pops, I feel like I have the motion down but I physically can't pop the hardflip

[bold elbow]

i just dont want it to be like the 4 styles they had before with the aggressive, OG, and all that, if they gonna do something like that imma need like 12 different styles to skate in

[worthy rune]

i just hope there is a story 🙏

[edgy shell]

skamteboard

[bold elbow]

or imagine they did like a 2k thing with the custom animations?? that'd be hella dope

[worthy rune]

yeah i was thinking u could maybe customize ur own

[neon owl]

I feel you. There’s certain tricks that look better in certain styles. And I feel that should be customized throughout tricks instead of just one style for all tricks

[bold elbow]

amen ❤️

[viral solstice]

I think the M-Corp thing is a clear sign of creative advancement. Also define story. The story that there is a new skate. and many will play together, the city being alive.. Its your story no matter what. You will have a role in the story

[worthy rune]

And u couldn’t tre dark in certain postures

[bold elbow]

i need a specifc splash to certain tricks you get me EA? ❤️

[neon owl]

Like.. I don’t like OG style for most tricks. But I play in that style for certain advantages

I’d rather be in standard or loose

[scenic gull]

im getting a error registering is it just me?

[worthy rune]

yeah it was og you couldn’t tre dark catch

[neon owl]

But every style has advantages

[neon owl]

Like this one

[bold elbow]

loose and agg for me ❤️

[worthy rune]

hunched is my favorite

wait style i’m stupid

standard is best

[small mirage]

are there easier ways to hardflip in skate 3

[bold elbow]

i need a easier way to hardflip in real life ❤️

[neon owl]

Like.. when I did my quad backflip.. I could only do it with a certain style

[worthy rune]

hard flips and inward heels are just hella hard bro

[bold elbow]

can i get a amen? LMAOO

[neon owl]

So I had to change my style for the quad backflip

[worthy rune]

@small mirage u gotta do the flick like perfect

[viral solstice]

What’s the best for multi flips man? I don’t often change styles..

[small mirage]

I can get them most of the time, my problem is doing them out of a seatbelt, I'm trynna learn seatbelt pop

[lethal notch]

I was messing with the og stale grab the other day speaking of

[worthy rune]

well out of seatbelt grab u gotta get ur stick down quick and flick quick

[neon owl]

Try to frontside flip. Sometimes.. you’ll do a vertical frontside flips. Like a muska flip. Once you feel that, and try not to do a 180.. you can get hardflips. Also try fakie. I found fakie muska flips easier than regular

[lethal notch]

you can make it look super sick with a tweaked stale in og

[viral solstice]

@neon owl Wanted to ask.. Did you have fun with the solar system grind?

[small mirage]

you gotta make like a shuvit movement with your right stick then tap right trigger

[bold elbow]

it'd be cool if for animations they did like a couple fingers on certain "hard to reach" grabs

[neon owl]

It was a pain. And I still got robbed I feel like

[bold elbow]

ooooo thank you, cause i could switch fs flip but thats about it

[worthy rune]

yeah i know seatbelt grab but i don’t trickline bro ask @exotic beacon lol or look up a tutorial

[viral solstice]

Naaa you killed it and always a 1up the way you do the setups for natural speed

[bold elbow]

and im not boutta sw hardflip until i can do it regular even if it is easier, cant skip progression ❤️

[worthy rune]

do a stale flip hippy flip for me

[neon owl]

Normal difficulty. But quad flip.. I think I needed standard style and goofy. I can’t remember exactly

[lethal notch]

No.

[quiet quest]

guys there is a way to get the skate 3 demo items in xbox???

[neon owl]

Otherwise.. for less than quad flip.. I feel any style will do

[lethal notch]

ngl i tried that for like 3 hours and couldn't get close

[worthy rune]

lol me too i bet mute flip is easier

[neon owl]

But standard and goofy works easiest for me

[worldly basalt]

Yooo

[quiet quest]

is it???????????

[viral solstice]

I don’t think I would ever try something that you struggle with lol

[lethal notch]

Eh? idk

[small mirage]

I'll watch a syphrus tutorial or sum

[bold elbow]

they better not be gimmicky with the free to play! you hear me EA? ❤️

[worthy rune]

i would def need a custom map

[lethal notch]

I know tally mark got one a few years back, but his game frose before he could reccord it 😭

[neon owl]

I learned hardflip from doing my frontside flips too vertical

[worthy rune]

also do u guys got a quad flip map ??

i don’t wanna make one

[neon owl]

Quad flips are hard. Everything has to be about perfect

[small mirage]

I know someone with one

[worthy rune]

i’ve done a couple triples but not a quad yet

[viral solstice]

Tally Mark is a G as well. I personally think you have some of the fastest reflexes and timing with hippies out of any ive seen

[neon owl]

I have an old video, and I used different colored blocks to show the angle and height that you would need to make a quad flip setup

[worthy rune]

Ok i’ll go look for it

i did the triple flip mega park gap

[bold elbow]

they need to add pressure flips

[lethal notch]

idk there are some ogs that have hit lines I could only dream of

like g shuv to nollie lazer type beat

[neon owl]

I was hoping.. people could look at how the ramps are relative to the different colored blocks to make the park.. but it’s still really hard to get a quad flip

I helped Zexy build his park

But syphrus was the first I seen to get it, I think

[small mirage]

can you hardflip pop?

[viral solstice]

Watching some of the old highest rated clips on console often makes me remember that most of the stuff done now, is not even on that level.

[lethal notch]

yep

[worthy rune]

low estimate has done some crazy stuff too

[bold elbow]

idk about all the acrobatics but all im saying is show the core skaters some love ❤️

[small mirage]

what's the best way to explain the timing on the hardflip after you seatbelt? I can't get it

[neon owl]

Mic audio is bad. I had some bad headphones then.

[worthy rune]

haha all good

[small mirage]

i didn't realize you were cap

[worthy rune]

lol i’m hella inactive now

on tiktok at least

[small mirage]

ye, I haven't played in a while but I'm starting to

[neon owl]

Look up quad miracle whip or quad tail walk. That video, I think I show the setup. It’s been a while

[worthy rune]

Ok sweet

[violet tapir]

Can anyone teach me how to double grab?

[edgy shell]

Wait til the new game drops then the challenge will be a quad slow flip

[worthy rune]

lol i found a quad flip 1800 map

[viral solstice]

Only if you teach me how to push in transition at full speed

[lethal notch]

Honestly, the way i time it is I just count 1, 2, 3. The first is the ollie, the second is shiftying the seatbelt grab, and the third is the pop, but it took me around a month to get semi consistent

[worthy rune]

the 120 fps to 30 hurts 😬

[neon owl]

Yea. Quad flips with spins seem easier to do, instead of straight quad flip. Something about the rotation makes it easier to had more flips

[small mirage]

you tap the trigger when done with the shifty right

[violet tapir]

I got you 💯

[worthy rune]

i swear front flips are faster too

[lethal notch]

hold up ill send a controller overlay with a recording

[neon owl]

Also.. when trying quad flips.. do backflips do you match with the landing ramp and there’s less of a flip you have to do for it to count

[small mirage]

alr, that will prolly help

[maiden lava]

Have to wonder if the briefcases they sent out and this image on the Insta mean these are collectibles in-game? 🤔

[worthy rune]

Ok thanks man i appreciate it

[neon owl]

Front flip for quad flip is doing a quad flip on hard mode compared to backflip

[worthy rune]

haha

someone has to try to find a spot to hit a quad in the actual map

[neon owl]

That would be hard

[small mirage]

trev had a custom map

[worthy rune]

the observatory road to mega park is probably the best spot

[neon owl]

On skate 2.. I got a triple backflip just from the map.. and even that was sketchy because he didn’t wanna go straight backflip because of the games physics

[worthy rune]

you can pop hella hella early and get close to quad

[radiant latch]

So I just read the lore page so there’s no security guards in San Van?

[neon owl]

The triple backflip on skate 2, I actually had to angle it, because going straight would cause a rotation due to game physics

[rich apex]

Is the new game still f2p lmao

[worthy rune]

where’s the spot that sounds sick

[neon owl]

Fun track. Left side

[worthy rune]

I’ll give it a try lol

I know i probably won’t get it but whatever

[lethal notch]

speaking of skate 2, I need to hit some more gaps with the slingshot

[small mirage]

@lethal notch doesn't even look like you did the hardflip on the controller

[neon owl]

There’s a tree near the huge launch off. Try to barely hit that tree and land into the bottom ramp. Coming so close to the tree can trigger the multiple flips… but it also gives you enough air to add more flips. The problem is the landing ramp is such a narrow area

If you don’t hit it just right.. the impact makes you bail

[worthy rune]

very left side track right ?

[lethal notch]

It does display it, I just flick it fast so it's kinda hard to see

[neon owl]

I tried it for hours.. and it was still the best I could do with a sloppy backflip

[neon owl]

Yea.. I have a video with the spot. Look up triple backflip skate 2, and skip to the end

[worthy rune]

Thanks man

[neon owl]

But watch my ads. So I get paid

Jk. Skip that junk

[small mirage]

do you have to do the whole thing, or does the shifty count as the shuvit part of the hardflip

[neon owl]

Use Adblock. Don’t care

[opaque lodge]

any ideas what brands will be apart of skate?

[lethal notch]

you have to do the whole hardflip

[neon owl]

I wish I knew

[lethal notch]

I think of it as drawing a circle with the stick and flicking it out

[small mirage]

it's so difficult

[sweet ember]

That year 4 deck is 🔥🔥🔥

[neon owl]

It’s cool

I would’ve liked more artwork.. but it’s still a sick deck

[lethal notch]

Honestly I'd recommend trying to learn some easier pops like the manny shuv pop first

[neon owl]

Reminds me of my almost deck with the dog poo in the middle of a white deck

[small mirage]

how do you that

[sweet ember]

Simple, but very clean. It’ll be a huge part of history down the track 🔥

[neon owl]

Can I still call it Mongo Corp? It’s clearly the same company

[lethal notch]

do one push, manny as low as possible, then hold the stick all the way down for around 0.2 seconds and do a bs shuv

[worthy rune]

how the hell do you no comply up there, or should i do it the og way where i spawn at the top ?

[neon owl]

Did I no comply?

I don’t think so

[worthy rune]

you did a no comply glitch to get on top of the mountain

so you wouldn’t have to sit through the loading screen every time 🤣

[neon owl]

OH!

It takes some time.. no comply glitch until you land in the sweet spot where it doesn’t respawn you on the track

[small mirage]

how do you bs shuvit

[neon owl]

It’s best to wait for the character to respawn automatically.. instead of button mashing to get a quick respawn

[lethal notch]

as in bs pop shuvit

or just a normal pop shuvit

[worthy rune]

just no comply next to the mountain, or is there something else i gotta do to launch?

[small mirage]

oh

[worthy rune]

i don’t know my skate 2 glitches bro 🤣

[small mirage]

how high of a pop is it

[empty stump]

Saw this post and pfp of the security logos. Any chance in game npc security is coming back??

[neon owl]

Nah. No comply glitch to launch to the top of that mountain is the easiest way

[small mirage]

oh wow

that's easy

[neon owl]

There’s certain parts of the grass that won’t auto respawn as soon as you hit the grass

Some of the grass auto respawns you to the track, cause you ain’t supposed to be there

[worthy rune]

how do i do the glitch? just no comply or do i have to emote or something?

[small mirage]

what pop glitch is next in difficulty would you say @lethal notch

[neon owl]

Hold down trigger halfway, and do a no comply

If you hold the trigger down too much or too little, the no comply launch glitch doesn’t work

[worthy rune]

right trigger i’m assuming ?

[neon owl]

I’m sure there’s a tutorial on how to no comply glitch.

[worthy rune]

yeah i’ll look it up this is weird haha

[neon owl]

Yea.. maybe right trigger. It’s been a while dude

And it doesn’t always launch you up the same. And you still gotta aim based on your position.

[worthy rune]

yeah dude 4 years

[lethal notch]

Honestly idk

[neon owl]

I launch at like 90 degrees angles when I do no comply glitch

[lethal notch]

Maybe the fakie hardflip pop, but that one's really inconsistent

[small mirage]

is there any 360 flip pops

[neon owl]

I could probably do it in 10 mins if I was playing right now. Cause muscle memory. But just explaining it is difficult when I’m not playing

[worthy rune]

i totally get it man

[neon owl]

I’m still not good at glitches, although I know them

[worthy rune]

figured it out finally

[neon owl]

I had to watch MilkyBarKidd and epicflyinghorse a lot to learn some stuff

[small mirage]

how do you do it

[worthy rune]

if ur talking about the no comply glitch, u gotta hold down rt to where ur barely not grabbing, then just no comply

[lethal notch]

there's one that is very unconventional that I discovered recently

[neon owl]

Crazy legs glitch is crazy hard to aim for small areas on skate 2. But it works too

[worthy rune]

well that was the tutorial video

[small mirage]

weird

[worthy rune]

you also can’t be moving at all

[neon owl]

Yea. Exactly. Not full grab or it won’t work

But too little grab, and it doesn’t work either

[small mirage]

is fs 360 shuv pop easy?

[wraith snow]

Ayo guys, to hang skateboards on the wall- what thingy tool should i buy?

Im moving out soon and my boards deserves some swag

[worthy rune]

i just use hooks

[neon owl]

Now try that triple backflip

And post video

[worthy rune]

i can’t aim my guy up there lol

it’s so hard

[neon owl]

And tell me how my triple flip don’t count 😭

[worthy rune]

haha lol i saw ur comment

[lethal notch]

you mean with the shifty seatbelt?

[small mirage]

idk

[small mirage]

I can't even get the no comply glitch it's difficult

[lethal notch]

that pop is way harder than the hardflip pop if that's what you're refering to

[small mirage]

what pop should I learn then

[lethal notch]

One that you could easily learn are stomp pops

just ride off a curb and full pop either a hardflip or an inward heel right as you roll off

[small mirage]

like a ledge?

[neon owl]

MilkyBarKidd is the best teacher for glitches

I miss that Kidd

[lethal notch]

anything where you are rolling off a curb, probably 6 inches max

[honest mortar]

but my dude Helix snake is the glitch master

[neon owl]

Idk. MilkyBar was the first one I watched. So I just always default to him

[small mirage]

what's pops are practical in trickline

[neon owl]

Plus.. he acknowledged me when I was still at 1000 subs

Like Nightspeeds

[worthy rune]

people just spam pop at the end of trickline lol

[neon owl]

And Zexy

[lethal notch]

I'm pretty sure I learned how to backwards man through milkybarkidd

[neon owl]

But I learned some stuff from epicflyinghorse as well

[honest mortar]

I just been friends with helix since like 2013ish I think but that's before I knew of milky

[worthy rune]

yeah same here

[neon owl]

And those kush pops.. I think Calplex taught me those

[worthy rune]

and some glitches i just learned playing campus skate lol noseblunt speed glitch cannonball

[neon owl]

Eventhough I’ve never been able to do them

[honest mortar]

So fun to do the OG glitches back in 2010

[worthy rune]

nose grind speed glitch is hella fun

[neon owl]

I try not to use glitches unless it helps me get the the spot I need to do it naturally

[worthy rune]

ngl toasty getting on top of this mountain might be the most annoying part of this challenge 🤣

[neon owl]

Bro.. some people just don’t understand. The setup can be so much harder than the actual challenge. I spend hours and days trying to get the setup right

[honest mortar]

I always tried to ban myself from glitching to win online

[worthy rune]

haha that was me with the mega mega gap if you know that one

[neon owl]

Like double bridge gap. The gap is hard.. but the runup has to be perfect

[worthy rune]

oh yeah for sure

if you know where the fence is on the art gallery, i threaded through in between the fence and the top of the bridge thing

once i found the setup it took me like 10 tries

[wraith snow]

I need that deck 😭

[neon owl]

Nice. To get to out of bounds area? That’s a tight squeeze. I had to stack manual pads and just roll through with a coffin

That would be hard to just thread

[worthy rune]

yep that spot, large wedge and a beach ball glitch sent me through

[neon owl]

Hopefully they’ll do a giveaway like the other decks

[neon owl]

I threaded that bridge from the industrial district though

[wraith snow]

Hope so! Or that it gets sent my way, it would surely decorate my new apartment that im getting next month ish haha

https://tenor.com/view/faze-clan-faze-faze-up-gaming-esports-gif-19138185

[worthy rune]

i might know which one you’re talking about? not sure

zexy tried that art gallery one, really took off my account on tiktok, made me keep posting

[neon owl]

Hard to describe. But it’s that one where I cleared over the rooftop of one building using speed from the quarry

And then used the ramp to clear over the old factory bridge

But I think I threaded it too

It’s probably called ‘old factory bridge gap’ or something

[cobalt dust]

[worthy rune]

lol that’s exactly it

[neon owl]

I’ve done so much stuff. Still so much to do

[gleaming peak]

hi

[worthy rune]

Oh that one yeah i haven’t hit that yet

[neon owl]

Beauty of skate games. Always something more crazy

[worthy rune]

i hit a hand hippy over the old factory though haha through a billboard rail turned vertical

[neon owl]

Everything I do now.. is like super hard compared to what I’ve done. It’s so crazy

[sinful shale]

im praying skate has sumpark

[marble flame]

sup nik

[sand river]

Guys I hope that this isn’t against the rules, if so then mods please forgive me as I’m loyal to the franchise, but I’m confused on if I did the steps in order to sign up for the play test right, I checked it but I am able to retake it multiple times and I feel like my input isnt being submitted

[neon owl]

Even if it doesn’t look like it’s hard

[gleaming peak]

nothing much man, just looking at Nike Dunks as usual

[worthy rune]

yeah i kinda lost track when i saw bagpiper doing the run glitch gaps

[wraith snow]

Ahhh Nik, always up to heavens work. Nike dunk hunting.

[neon owl]

My stuff is always no glitch for the actual gap or challenge

That’s the hard part

I get peoples challenges doing beach ball glitches or speed glitches or ramps.. and I gotta figure out how to do it without that

[worthy rune]

hell yeah that’s pretty cool

[neon owl]

It’s a pain tho. Knowing that it can easily be done with a glitch

[gleaming peak]

If I'm not sleeping I am looking at Skate and shoes lol

[neon owl]

I skated under water though! And I got to see what was beyond Danny ways river!

Idc. I like what I do

[worthy rune]

I’m gonna head out boys catch you guys the next time something cool happens

[neon owl]

Peace

[sudden warren]

Later Cap

I'll replace you as a less important skate fan!

[wispy robin]

can't wait for the new one

are the just gonna call it skate.

why not skate 4

[neon owl]

Did any of you guys ever buy that $500 EA SKATE 1 shirt with the armpit stains?

[marble flame]

What is your Nike Dunks you want to buy Mr. Nike Dunks lover?

[wispy robin]

can it bot

[sudden warren]

maybe

[neon owl]

😭 nooooo!

[sudden warren]

and by maybe i mean not at that price, i would never

[vale anchor]

Once you're in your in. You're in the pool for a chance at selection. Then you just be patient and wait for an email on day. Signing up multiple times doesn't help your chances

[gleaming peak]

De La Soul Nike Dunk SB Low 2015

[sudden warren]

Hanging in VC if anyone wants to chill and discuss!

Toasty, you're lagging on the collection front 👀

[neon owl]

Someone bought it

Y’all crazy

[gleaming peak]

🤯

[neon owl]

I been watching it for like a year or two

LMAO

[lethal notch]

Imma say it, spending half a k on a t shirt is a bad financial decision

[wraith snow]

I wonder who it was

@sudden warren 👀👀👀

[neon owl]

I spent $1200 on my fiend Hunter deck. From the 1990s. Prototype

[sudden warren]

I could never

[hidden bronze]

Can I answer this one too?

[ocean agate]

Icl I respect and love all the collectors but Damn ion have the patience or bank acc for allat

[gleaming peak]

what???

[ocean agate]

Dope shirt tho hope the owner enjoys it

[marble flame]

Yeah sure!

[sudden warren]

🤷‍♂️

Toasty, gotta brag to you... i have a 1 of 1 skater XL complete. I know you'd appreciate that

Appreciate you for your videos over time showing us some of the decks you've gotten

[hidden bronze]

The Why so Sad SB Dunks
Runner up being the Diamond Skate Co White Diamond SB Dunks

[gleaming peak]

@neon owl I'll buy you a Big Mac with a diet Dr. Kelp for your whole skate collection

[hidden bronze]

Fast Times SB Dunks are an honourable mention, but they’re not too special

[neon owl]

It was sentimental. Learned my first kickflip. And no recent reissues. $1200 was worth it for me. A lot of people wouldn’t sell it for $2000. I know, because I tried to buy it from them.

[gleaming peak]

I remember this one !! imo, it's worth the money. A banger deck and its Hook-Ups

[sudden warren]

Love stories like that

[neon owl]

Probably one of the rarest hook ups boards in existence. And hook ups is bad for inflating prices on collectors

Unlucky me.. learned my first kickflip on rare af board

[hidden bronze]

I just remembered the SB Dunk High Ishod Wair x Magnus Walker’s. Those are a super unique looking shoe

[gleaming peak]

I think thats a flex ngl, i really like that

[dull pilot]

Bob may have to sell some M-Corp shirts to pull the corp out of the fire.

[hidden bronze]

👀

[sudden warren]

Don't say that, people are ready to buy

[hidden bronze]

I might be willing to fork over a few bucks for one

[neon owl]

Sell them vests Jeff. I bet people would buy

[hidden bronze]

Just depends how much hahahaha

[vale anchor]

Fire? What fire?

[dull pilot]

WAS A JOKE. NOT SELLING ANYTHING.

[gleaming peak]

I agree, I need one bad

[lethal notch]

man i have too many shirts, could you guys put out a backpack or something?

[hidden bronze]

Had me geeking out for a sec there lol

[sudden warren]

Good save

[gleaming peak]

maybe the whole briefcase

[neon owl]

I’m in deep with the audiophile community. That tape player.. If you can add less gain and reduce the noise floor on that tape player.. it would sell good

[neon owl]

The main problem is the noise floor.

[dull pilot]

Uh oh.

We may have a situation.

[hidden bronze]

👀

You have my attention.

[vale anchor]

What situation? Everything is fine

[cobalt dust]

[neon owl]

If you could lower the nose floor, and make cassette tapes be played through USB with no noise floor.. as an accurate reproduction of cassette tape audio.. it would sell good to those trying to preserve audio quality of cassettes

[gleaming peak]

ohh??

[vale anchor]

Can you explain like I'm 5 the noise floor?

[neon owl]

I think that tape player has so much more potential. I’d love to rip cassettes tapes in premium audio fidelity

[hidden bronze]

Nik the Dunk man, what are your favourite Dunks?

I don’t know if I’ve heard the answer before

[gleaming peak]

how many do I list?

[neon owl]

The noise you hear when it should be silent

[hidden bronze]

Haha, gimme a top 3

[neon owl]

It’s like a background hiss

[hidden bronze]

With an honourable mention

[vale anchor]

See that was my thought too, since it's got the USB line in/line out, I could digitize some really old tapes my mom still has from me being a silly kid

But also, I kinda always loved the hiss 😅
Calming sound

[sudden warren]

I didnt know what ELi5 was until like last year

[vale anchor]

Well, you were 4 last year so it checks

[sudden warren]

oh...

[hidden bronze]

Ouch.

[scenic gull]

just learned that this one's gonna be free :D

yay!

[gleaming peak]

Freddy's because it has an amazing story behind it, Pushead 1's have an insane design all the way from the shoes to the box, De La Soul 2015's I love music collabs and the whole colour pallet is amazing you can wear that shoes with anything

that was so hard to write lol

[hidden bronze]

Stacked list 😮‍💨

[gleaming peak]

I have a very big list of shoes I want haha

[neon owl]

I used an apple dongle ADC to record the tape player audio. Noise floor was more present than using my line in direct to mother board.. I need to figure out a way to remove the noise floor and restore the cassette in its purest form

[vale anchor]

[neon owl]

I love the cassette player though. It’s so useful

[vale anchor]

Is it possible it's on the tape it self?

Like the actual recording? It's embedded into it

[neon owl]

Maybe. But I tried Bluetooth. And line out still gave significant noise

[hidden bronze]

If I had 3 absolute favourite SB Dunks right now, they’d probably be:
SB Dunk Polaroid (always loved these, considering I’m a photographer, and probably the first SB Dunk I properly fell in love with)
SB Dunk VX1000 (super cool, so many details, and the colours are great)
SB Dunk Concepts Grail (absolutely crazy colours, super crazy pair)

[neon owl]

I think the tape is recorded with noise to give that vibe. However.. it’s still present when using a Bluetooth connection

[gleaming peak]

concept grails are insane, they reminds me of glowing skaters in free skate mega park lobbies lmaoooo

I used to have VX1000 but I sold them, massive mistake

[neon owl]

In this case.. it seems that the line out connection is more suitable for speakers or hard to drive headphones.. instead of highly sensitive IEMs

You’re less likely to hear the noise on something harder to drive

[hidden bronze]

Omg nooo 😭

[gleaming peak]

yeah i sold too many shoes that I liked, but I needed money at the time

[visual oracle]

Looks up the SB Dunk VX1000's
$433

i donno why i'm surprised

they look really good tho

[hidden bronze]

The concept grails are like almost $2k USD

[visual oracle]

yeah

[vale anchor]

I've learned a lot, you definitely know your stuff here!

[neon owl]

It’s niche, but important to the audio community

However.. I love the cassette player, and will probably use it whenever I want to play a cassette

It’s also good a bluetooth speaker. I haven’t tried usb yet

Where is @waxen apex .. he would love this conversation

The audio community is a death trap. Save your sanity

[visual oracle]

3d printed headphones are neat.

[neon owl]

I only use IEMs these days. High sensitivity

[waxen apex]

I'm actually watching your video lol

[neon owl]

lol. What you think about the tape player and noise floor?

I tried to record it good through apple dongle Adc

[sudden warren]

Anyone down for reTHAWed, hit us up

[waxen apex]

Almost to that part of the video

[hidden bronze]

Bummer, can’t join the VC just yet. Still out of the house 🥲

[sudden warren]

all good. I'm going to bed soon lol

[hidden bronze]

Haha all good my man. When you decide to do so, I wish you a peaceful sleep my man 💤

[sudden warren]

Appreciate you

[waxen apex]

I actually really like it. It shows that they're old school, yet they only know a baseline of how to use the product. That's so sick

[neon owl]

Yea. It’s cool.

[waxen apex]

Awesome video man

[neon owl]

I do wish the noise was lower though to get a perfectly silent background

[waxen apex]

I can always tweak that. I know a thing or two about denoising audio

[neon owl]

Like.. if I put Eminem - Marshall Mathers cassette.. I wouldn’t want that

However.. for m-corp.. it’s perfect

[waxen apex]

Truth

[neon owl]

Eminem on cassettes is golden age

[sudden warren]

i have one or two

[celest ore]

I’ve just heard of “IEM’s” recently. Are they really that good?

[neon owl]

Depending on what you get. IEMs will blow true wireless out the water. The clarity can be so good

I have Truthear Nova.. but I tried 7hz Zero 2 earlier, and they’re good too

[celest ore]

They seem pretty interesting. Is there any loss in audio from wired compared to wireless?

[neon owl]

Not all IEMs are good though

[celest ore]

Yeah that’s what the dude was saying in some video. He got like an anime pair or something. Said it really does make a difference and you “feel like you’re in the room” with the music artists.

[neon owl]

If you want your IEMs to be wireless, you can connect them to some bluetooth ear hooks like Fiio UTWS3 to make IEMs wireless. Because IEMs have detachable cables

[celest ore]

Ahhh okay I gotcha. That’s pretty interesting! Also, are you able to balance the audio between the left and right side? My right ears deaf so I can’t hear out of right earbuds.

[neon owl]

Charging case and everything

[celest ore]

They look pretty sick!! 👉😎👉

[waxen apex]

Didn't know this existed 🙀

I've had IEMs for like 2 months and didn't know about wireless options

[neon owl]

Yea. And they aptx, LDAC, etc

Not only regular Bluetooth

But depends on the codec of the source. Like.. apple only does AAC.

But apple AAC is better than SBC (default Bluetooth codec)

[neon owl]

Yes. You can change the loudness of left or right through the app

So if you need one side louder than that other

[neon owl]

I got mine for $50. My wife uses it all the time

[waxen apex]

Worth it

[celest ore]

Ahh okay thank you for letting me know! I gotta see if anyone around here has a pair that I can test.

$50 isn’t bad from all the stuff I’ve been hearing about them.

[neon owl]

You think this looks cool? Give me a sec..

[wraith snow]

roses are red
bob told us to invest

mongo corp ran off
whos now the best? :(

[celest ore]

Oh heck yeah lemme see!! 👀

[waxen apex]

I kinda struggle with the cable tbh. Idk how artists keep them cinched on the back of their heads without the IEMs falling out of their ears

[gleaming peak]

jeff will save us

[celest ore]

BRO THOSE ARE SICK!!! Whaaat?!

[neon owl]

The stickers could use more work

[wraith snow]

work could use more stickers

[neon owl]

But the IEM shell is curved and the sticker isn’t as flat as it should be

[wraith snow]

nah it looks cool man

[neon owl]

Yea bro. I like it. Haha

[waxen apex]

What do you use to print stickers? I want to make my own stickers at home, but idk if I want a cricket or what. Idk if crickets can print detailed pics like those

[celest ore]

They’re super dope!! 👉😎👉

[neon owl]

Inkjet printer and some gloss sticker paper

[waxen apex]

OMG Thats genius

Does the printer type matter? I dont think I have an inkjet

[neon owl]

I used to go over my stickers in clear coat, but the clear coat cracks when it bends

But my sticker paper seems to hold up. Give me a second and I’ll take some pics of a year of use

[waxen apex]

Okay!

[cobalt dust]

[waxen apex]

Hi Hurt

Im gonna hop in VC in a couple minutes

[neon owl]

This is my stickers, every day, used 8 hours a day, for over a year without clear coat

[waxen apex]

That looks awesome

[neon owl]

You can see they’re faded tho

Compared to the detailed pic I posted before

I used a cheap inkjet printer. Like $30. And AIVA sticker paper.

But the quality is so good

[waxen apex]

Not bad though

[waxen apex]

Might be a worthy investment

[restive garden]

Sup ✋

[waxen apex]

So sick!! I want to do this now. Gotta print my own logos

Can you dm me the model of printer you got?

[neon owl]

Canon Pixma mg2522. It was cheap at Walmart. Like $30

[waxen apex]

Gonna look into this

[neon owl]

But it’s very basic. Nothing special.

[waxen apex]

$99 on walmart. gonna look elsewhere

[neon owl]

I checked the price. And yea dude. Wtf

I just bought it when I was redoing my room

[waxen apex]

prices are weird

[neon owl]

And it was the cheapest one there

Like $30

Point is.. it probably doesn’t matter as much about the printer.. as long as it’s decent. Because even this one isn’t that good.

[waxen apex]

Truth

[neon owl]

$100 and I would’ve said nah

[severe latch]

hi chat

[neon owl]

Wuddup

[celest ore]

[cobalt dust]

[severe latch]

how are yall

[neon owl]

Iight

[orchid sluice]

Eh could be better but livin

[neon owl]

Is what it is

[waxen apex]

For real

[scenic gull]

is there any way to play skate 3 on pc

[full granite]

Why does all of m corp site point yo playtesting but there's nothing to sign up for

[full granite]

Xbox gamepass cloud

[wraith snow]

xbox gamepass ultimate with cloud gaming! makes u able to play online aswell!

[scenic gull]

but I dont see skate 3 on the xbox app

for some reason

[full granite]

Do you have gamepass?

[scenic gull]

No

[full granite]

Well you need it to play on PC

[wraith snow]

thats because its under the cloud gaming section

u then scroll down untill a search box pops up, and in that u search for skate 3

[scenic gull]

ok

how much is the gamepass

[full granite]

I don't think you can see the section without gamepass?

[scenic gull]

is it like a subscription

[wraith snow]

yes

[full granite]

Yeah

[scenic gull]

ok

[full granite]

Expensive kinda

[scenic gull]

how much

[wraith snow]

i think its around 10-15 dollars a month?

with 1st month only being 1 dollar

[scenic gull]

eh thats not that bad

ok thanks guys

[full granite]

16.99

Usd

[neon owl]

Skate 3 like under $20 for disc

[full granite]

He wants to play PC

[neon owl]

Ah yea

Missed the Pc part

[full granite]

Kinda expensive my opinion

[neon owl]

Depends

Never used game pass on PC

Enjoy it on Xbox tho

[tiny prism]

i would but i cant do the latency

im too sensitive to it

[neon owl]

What is latency for Xbox on PC

?

[tiny prism]

because it's streamed there's input latency

when it's working good it's fine for most people but it messes with me

feels gross esp with a game like skate

if it was a turn based thing i think i'd be fine

[wraith snow]

barely any, i have like medium good wifi, and it runs flawlessly

[tiny prism]

see

i have crazy good internet

hardwired directly in

[tranquil forum]

Am I the only person who has been trying to get into playtests since they began and still never got picked

[dull pilot]

no, you’re not.

[mellow heath]

@dull pilot idk if you can say much, but is the MCORP thing a teaser for the game? are we possibly going to see actual trailers of the game rather than just playtest recaps?

[zenith sand]

[wraith snow]

M-Corp / Mongo Corp is a reference to a company that was also apart of the earlier games, it was abit of marketing done to give us the first bit of story to skate. and to announce the console testing

[mellow heath]

Alr wasnt sure

Its been a hot minute since ive played skate 1 and 3, I havent played 2 yet

[wraith snow]

M-Corp wasnt really apart of skate 3, but it was a bigger part in skate 2

[mellow heath]

Oh yea thatd be why ive never heard of it

I only have 1 console that can play it but I dont really get a chance to use it

[wraith snow]

GOOD!

[worldly whale]

We just aren’t gods favorite 😂😂

[rancid timber]

Dude, the M-Corp vid is so peak

[wraith snow]

happens even with the pc tests lmao

[rancid timber]

Also, that snippet of gameplay at the end looks S P I C Y

[wraith snow]

TRULY, its come such a long way, people saying theres no difference, clearly hasnt been looking haha

[rancid timber]

That's such an insane statement

[wraith snow]

people saying theres no difference? or me saying they havent been looking?

[rancid timber]

That game looks MAD for "pre-pre-alpha"

[rancid timber]

That people say there's no difference

[wraith snow]

agreed!

[rancid timber]

I'm going between the July 23' playtest and the May 24' playtest vid

[zenith sand]

Check #frequently-asked-questions-and-more and https://www.ea.com/games/skate/faq for info on Playtesting.

[rancid timber]

The lighting is so much better

Heya Frankie

[wraith snow]

yea it does that whenever u say play,test without something seperating the words haha

[wraith snow]

so much!

[rancid timber]

Yeah true

And in that M-corp vid, you get to see the lighting from multiple light sources (lamps n shizz) instead of the single massive light source (the unmatched power of the sun)

[wraith snow]

exactlyyy!!!

[rancid timber]

Also, I dunno if it's me, but everything looks smoother animation-wise

[wraith snow]

we also got another brand confirmation in game, so we're slowly seeing brands being approved, shadering getting added, and textures being finished and added to the world

[rancid timber]

And the reflections of the light on the ground look kinda slick

[rancid timber]

Hell yeah

Honestly, I know that people just want the more "core" skate stuff, but I also want some dumb-ass outfits

[wraith snow]

i bet those will come too!

[rancid timber]

Like, I wanna have a suit of armour or some Cleric/Wizard robes for some good ol 'Dungeons and Drop-Ins'

Bc seeing wacky stuff is just good fun

Skating around with a bucket on your head

[wraith snow]

For sure!!

what is happening right now

what is an m corp

[rancid steppe]

Ummmm I just tried to sign up for console playtesting and my browser logged me out of the website because hackers might be trying to steal my credit card information

[zenith sand]

Check #frequently-asked-questions-and-more and https://www.ea.com/games/skate/faq for info on Playtesting.

[amber island]

What do you mean by that?

Steal your information?

[rancid steppe]

I pressed the orange "register now" button and then my browser said there are hackers that might steal my information

including credit card details

[amber island]

Sorry I’m kinda confused cause last time I registered it never said that for me

[rancid steppe]

When did you register

Because hackers might target the website because EA just announced the console playtest

[zenith sand]

Check #frequently-asked-questions-and-more and https://www.ea.com/games/skate/faq for info on Playtesting.

[amber island]

I know I registered in 2022 but they wanted me to re do it for some reason so I did let me check

October 17 in 2023 I had to register again

[rancid steppe]

hmm

I don't know..

I hope that EA knows about these "hackers" if there even are any

[amber island]

Well they’ll keep you updated if anything. If you feel worried that your information might get compromised just sit back and wait for any updates

[grizzled ledge]

can you make your website and whole account system any more broken 🤦‍♂️

ea.arcsivr showing different email when i press ea account

[wraith snow]

Do u want my skate. Story meme answer?

Or the actual answer?

[wraith snow]

The website is just struggeling i believe, cause it started messing up around the time of the console testing sign up announcement, so theyre prob working on fixing the server for the site

[rancid steppe]

Does anyone know when it'll be fixed

[wraith snow]

Doubt it, think its just abt patience, but when u sign up dosent matter from my understanding, i believe its random who gets invited each time

[rancid steppe]

But the thing is... I can't sign up because my information has a chance of getting stolen

[amber island]

I don’t think you need to always sign up if you already sign up I think but I don’t want to make that statement without fully understanding it.
