Waiting for early access so I can play skate. ❌

Waiting for early access so play testing is no longer mentioned ✅

[tiny prism]

REAL

Waiting for early access so people stop breaking nda 😭

[open osprey]

Fr gets annoying having the bot pop up every time it’s mentioned and ppl breaking nda

[neon owl]

Peace and tranquility

I'd rather be made of glass and forced to skate

They should then reprogram dyno to be triggered by 'early access'.

[tiny prism]

They should reprogram dyno to ignore my messages 😈

[open osprey]

Idc if anybody breaks nda anymore at this point it’s on them

[tiny prism]

Based

Idk why you'd even chance it

Doesn't make sense to
But it's your access you're risking

Oh this very much breaks nda lol

Just
So you know

[open osprey]

In all seriousness tho at least it would run better than Elden ring on a calculator

[open osprey]

Not just that either

You potentially run the risk of getting blacklisted from ea playtesting entirely

[dull pilot]

True. Excessive violations - the TOS team will take action against the account (and they’ll be banned from playtesting completely.)

[tiny prism]

I just don't get it

[open osprey]

A true mystery

[dull pilot]

I don’t even talk to my wife about the game. Lmao

It’s not that hard to shhhhh

[tiny prism]

I won't lie
I doubt I could keep something from an s/o if I was excited enough

If I trusted them enough, that is

No s/o tho
Also not in testing so lol

[hollow hazel]

I’d be hyped to meet someone as interested in skate. or skating as I am

[open osprey]

Exactly or yk just read the terms when you sign up and the server rules

[hollow hazel]

Until then I just keep secrets from my cat

[tiny prism]

Is your cat a yapper

Ours has a very scratchy meow

[hollow hazel]

She yells a lot

[tiny prism]

I love talky cats when I don't own them lmao

Meowing at a cat and them meowing back will always be an all time feeling ngl

[worthy rune]

That’s surprising honestly

[open osprey]

Can def be a little annoying

[hollow hazel]

By her meow you’d expect a little kitten then this big muscly tuxedo cat comes in demanding the couch

[dull pilot]

I mean, she knows about the game, but nothing that would break NDA.

[tiny prism]

Jeff how easy is it to get Kuma howling

[dull pilot]

He doesn’t.
He cries. Hahaha oooooh.
No howls though. It’s not a common thing for Alaskan Klee Kai to howl.

[open osprey]

So excited for early access so I can play skate. With my friends and really just whoever’s actually down to play it

[dull pilot]

He smiles more than anything.

[tiny prism]

Huh
The more you know

[hollow hazel]

Me telling people in line at the grocery store to download skate.

[open osprey]

Tbr the game doesn’t get enough love

[brittle hornet]

cause it’s still in hush mode

[open osprey]

Talking just skate as a whole 1,2 and 3 should’ve specified

[brittle hornet]

its gonna get real soon especially for full release im sure they got hella planned for marketing

[left tiger]

Oh mb

[tiny prism]

Full release isn't any time soon

[brittle hornet]

cuh

[hollow hazel]

Yeah all over socials there’s lots of impatient people or people who would rather pay $60 instead lol

[tiny prism]

Early access is

[brittle hornet]

I’m aware g

2025

[hollow hazel]

Pockets ain’t empty cuh

[worthy nebula]

I hope iOS comes out when all the other play tests drop. I have seen 0 updates on their YouTube

For mobile

[left tiger]

Thank god the game Will be free cause im broke as hell

[tiny prism]

I'm mostly only interested in mobile to see how they translated it all

[open osprey]

Personal opinion ppl paying for thps3+4 remake is kinda dumb with everything they’re leaving out

Just using that one as an example

[visual oracle]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[hollow hazel]

Yeah it’s cool 3/4 is getting a remake but tbh I think doing the underground games would’ve been a better decision

[brittle hornet]

underground fasho

[open osprey]

100% but leaving out career for 4 is stupid

[hollow hazel]

The old thps formula is kinda dated now just 2 minute runs

[open osprey]

Agreed also removing Bam

[hollow hazel]

Yeah I don’t even remember if I played 4 or not but defs removing stuff isn’t the way to go

[open osprey]

It’s more that they lied and said everything was coming back

[hollow hazel]

Ig it’s understandable given his issues in the past, but rn he seems to be in a good place skating with Tony himself recently

[visual oracle]

maybe they didn't have the time to put Bam back in. feel like people would've been upset if the game got delayed.

[open osprey]

That I can def understand with past issues

[open osprey]

They kept all the same voice lines from the original games all they were really doing is porting it and adding maps

As well as expanding soundtrack

Career being removed was activision’s call

Do you think they will have a photo mode?

[open osprey]

For Skate.

Absolutely

[worthy nebula]

YAY. as a photographer,y phone will be filled with them then… after the play test of course

[open osprey]

Honestly I think it’d be a little weird if they didn’t have a photo mode in this one

[bleak widget]

I hope mega parks will make a return in the new game

[open osprey]

I don’t see why they wouldn’t tbh

Megaparks are always fun

Go read the rules please

[dry sphinx]

Follow your nda brother

[honest crest]

:/

[open osprey]

Sorry man but they do have a support system if you do run into any problems

[honest crest]

they closed my ticket right away when I opened it😭 they were no help

[bleak widget]

Totally agree

I was always a fan of the skate series but never really got into other skateboarding games such as tony hawk pro skater. The flick it system makes for a much more engaging experience

[open osprey]

Also a lot easier to learn

[neon owl]

good dog. at least its not a little yapper

mine only howls when she wants something.

[open osprey]

My main thing with thps was the physics to it never really liked how they worked

[neon owl]

i was die-hard tony hawk. then skate came and killed it

[open osprey]

Tony hawk games are still awesome tho and yeah skate def did kinda kill it

[neon owl]

that moment when skate released their demo was such a vibe shift.

[dull pilot]

EA Help cannot assist with playtest issues.
Check #1214598970370957374 for all the info.

[dull pilot]

Oh, he yaps. Hahah

[bleak widget]

Right much prefer skate

[neon owl]

oh no. lol. still a good dog

[bleak widget]

pressing button combos to do tricks? nah let me flick the joystick

[open osprey]

Yeah gravitating to grinds never really sat right with me

[bleak widget]

me neither.

[dull pilot]

He’s awesome.
It’s actually too quiet when he’s at doggie daycare.

[open osprey]

The amount of speed to you could pick up in thps was always funny tho

[neon owl]

my dog is so quiet unless the mailman comes up or something she wants. but when she wants something.. shes 100% gonna annoy you until you do it

[hollow hazel]

Handplant to footplant the quarter

[open osprey]

Oh god no

[hollow hazel]

Feeble to darkslide to noseblunt

[neon owl]

you can do that on skate

just not as quick as thps. lol

[hollow hazel]

I actually physically can’t bring myself to combos like that

[open osprey]

Very understandable

[neon owl]

i mean.. its probably not easy. i havent tried it. going from darkslide to noseblunt on the same rail would probably be the hardest part

[open osprey]

I wonder if the new skate will have any speed glitches

[hollow hazel]

BS darkslide to BS noseblunt

I don’t know if even Andy Anderson could do that

He probably will next clip

[neon owl]

im sure. every skateboarding game has glitches like that.

[open osprey]

They make it more fun

[neon owl]

put a skateboard in a game.. and theres bound to be some crazy glitch eventually.

idk why that is. but thats how it works

[gray fjord]

Just gotta wait for someone to discover it is all, but I wonder if they'll patch them out?

[tiny prism]

I'm sure they will

[open osprey]

Another one of life’s greatest mysteries

[gray fjord]

The only glitch I ever used in Skate 3 was that ramp fly glitch to get over the fence in The Art Gallery

[neon owl]

ive played other sports games and occasionally get some type of speed glitch in those.

[open osprey]

Honestly I hope not the way I see it as long as it doesn’t break the game and it’s just something fun don’t remove it

[visual oracle]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/TmKTWliOGQ8 i mean you got Andy Anderson doing stuff like this

[hollow hazel]

Man that whole OG skate San Fran area was sick

[neon owl]

you can do that. the manual pad glitch works good for that too

[visual oracle]

this is andy anderson i swear it just won't embed

[neon owl]

the only speed glitch i can do is the insane speed glitch. but i only use it for getting to places

[hollow hazel]

He has no bail mods installed I swear

[open osprey]

Same other than also using it to hit tricks that would legit be impossible otherwise

[bleak widget]

The first trick I shall do in the new skate game will be just a simple ollie.

[gray fjord]

Agreed

[neon owl]

oh yea. ive played around with it for ridiculous gaps just to see if it would work

but definitely impossible otherwise

[open osprey]

Always funny when you do a speed glitch and go flying into a random pole you didn’t know existed

[scenic gull]

[hollow hazel]

People hoping for a mega park remake

Me skating a curb for 45 minutes straight

[neon owl]

lol real talk

[hollow hazel]

That’s why I was so stoked when skate came out, just seshing a simple ledge was so satisfying vs what we had from thps for years

[open osprey]

First thing I’m doing is finding the biggest ramp possible and attempting a 1080 Christ air until I land it

[neon owl]

i can see why people really enjoy the mega park. its never been my thing

[hollow hazel]

First vert trick I’m doing is crossbone to melon

[neon owl]

i like doing big gaps and stuff. but idk.. mega parks have just never interested me

[hollow hazel]

It was in the skate 3 tutorial or smth and it became my favourite trick it just looks dope

[open osprey]

That’s understandable they def aren’t for everybody

[neon owl]

i also dont like vert skating

might have something to do with it

[hollow hazel]

Yeah give me a big flat street gap or Ollie up some stairs any day over a 1080 body varial to Japan air

[visual oracle]

Fly off at 700 mph and die instantly

[open osprey]

Sounds like an amazing idea

[neon owl]

but its understandable. theres a reason why some skaters mostly only do vert

[open osprey]

But fr it’s always a random pole

[neon owl]

like tony hawk has some good street skating. but he obviously loves his ramps

[open osprey]

I like both

[open vale]

Realistic street skating is way more enjoyable

[neon owl]

i like skating quarterpipes irl. i dont like watching it. but ive always been mostly street

[open osprey]

I like street skating for trickling

[neon owl]

and when it comes to games.. idk. just not into it

[open osprey]

Trick lining

[open vale]

Trickling sounds better

[open osprey]

For sure

[tiny prism]

I'll agree to this, not so much tricklining

[neon owl]

if i had a dollar for everytime someone made a typo and called it trickling..

[tiny prism]

Doesn't seem fun to me but enjoy yourself

[neon owl]

must of been autocorrect

[open osprey]

I hate autocorrect bro

[neon owl]

its done it to me a lot too. lol

[visual oracle]

I appreciate that tricklining is very difficult to do effectively.

[open vale]

I will say I can’t wait to throw down some lines on multiplayer only thing I hate about playing skate 3 is no server

[neon owl]

i respect the trickliners and competitive. because i definitely cant do it

[visual oracle]

I watched an entire video about Skate 3 comp and I don't understand any of that.

I like filming.

[neon owl]

i like doing the biggest gaps, the most realistic way the game allows me to reach that goal. which turns into the most unrealistic things.

like.. of course you cant clear the double bridge gap in real life. but if you were going to.. this is how you would have to do it

[tiny prism]

Yeah that's about how I play

[neon owl]

so idk what you would call that style. lol

i wanna clear this massive stairset. but i dont wanna use a speed glitch to do it

thats how i am

[worthy nebula]

I’m more so a street skater. Kick push kinda guy with some nice flows and minimal tricks. IRL of course

How I play is street skate with narly moves that makes Rodney Mullen happy

[neon owl]

irl.. i like going down the biggest thing my skills will allow

and then trying different tricks off that thing

but sometimes.. if i land it. ill go back and do it again just because it felt good. i spent a whole day just ollies off of a loading dock one time.

[worthy nebula]

Most I could do in IRL was pop shove it’s. I got kick flips down but that was right before I ended my skateboarding with a broken leg.

[neon owl]

i suck at regular shuvs. i mostly stuck to front shuvs

most of my tricks were frontside

[hollow hazel]

My favourite thing is doing Mach 10 around a park frontside grinding every transition possible

[worthy nebula]

I’m goofy sugar so I’m already a mess haha

[neon owl]

why not bs?

[hollow hazel]

Frontside is priority because it feels the most satisfying

You get that angle where the wheels slide and go ccrrrrnnngg and man I could die happy right there

[neon owl]

depends on the trick im trying. i usually go at ledges and stuff frontside

but if i want to do a front 180 to 50-50.. im gonna go at it backside

[hollow hazel]

Yeah it’s all trick dependent, like fs board slides scare the heck out of me cause I slid out on a rail and almost faceplanted it

But even tho I could slip and land on my back bs board on a rail feels chill

[neon owl]

oh yeah.. screw fs board. lol

board is gonna be bs for me

[worthy nebula]

I seriously can’t wait for this! I’m really going to try and get a board. I need to get back on one for my health

[neon owl]

you plan on skating this board?

@sudden warren @gleaming peak

yall gonna skate your boards if you win the giveaway?

[gleaming peak]

i will never skate my boards

[waxen apex]

Me either

[gleaming peak]

they're on the wall for life

https://tenor.com/view/wwe-john-cena-wwe-ruthless-aggression-wordlife-gif-21552133

[neon owl]

i mean.. good for dude if he wants to skate it

thats what its made for i guess

[sudden warren]

Exactly

[gleaming peak]

it was a nwo reference

[sudden warren]

Mine will never be skated but I don't mind people who skate some of them. Makes them more rare!

[gleaming peak]

i havent got a problem with someone skating their boards or whatever, i just wont do it to mine

people can treat their stuff how they wish

[neon owl]

i would honestly sell it if you win. and then use the money to buy a full complete. im sure someone here would pay top dollar for skate collectible deck. (if you plan on skating it anyway)

[worthy nebula]

Yeah. It would be an honor and I’d only ride it, not bang it up

[worthy nebula]

Very true. I could do that

[neon owl]

but man. if you wanna skate it. whatever. good on you.

i just know i couldnt do it

[neon owl]

makes my collection more valuable

[worthy nebula]

I could trade it. I don’t have separate trucks and wheels

[sudden warren]

Exactly! Not that itll ever get sold

[neon owl]

id sell it for 150 and then buy a baker deck with the twin nose tail

or trade it for a complete

[sudden warren]

It's a free collectible. It's worth what you value it!

[neon owl]

true that.

i think someone get more than 150. but 150 would be a quick sale

[sudden warren]

Right. But I disapprove of sales! Hehe

[worthy nebula]

My last deck was Baker! Classic Red And Black!

[sudden warren]

I have a mullen almost

[neon owl]

lol. yea.. i aint selling any of mine

[worthy nebula]

Honestly, I’d either mount it or ride it

[neon owl]

thats what i would get. love that deck.

i also really like stereo deck with their mellow cave

[neon owl]

the uberlight or whatever?

[worthy nebula]

I had it from 2003 to 2019. I pressure cracked it then mounted it. In the end, it said BR lol.

Dynoooooo

my guy

[neon owl]

wish i wouldve kept my broken baker.

i kept a lot of my broken boards. but a lot of them are just gone for whatever reason

[waxen apex]

Ah. Didn't catch it. I wasn't alive for NWO. I was just saying word

[worthy nebula]

I live in Fl and while the wife and I were moving, it got wet real bad and so I had to get rid of it. That was the hardest thing I ever threw away

[neon owl]

i have a faded memory of nwo. i was definitely younger then.

[neon owl]

when i was young.. id leave my boards outside. and skate in puddles. skating waterlogged all the time.

[empty coyote]

I recently got a bag for my board so no drop of water will ever touch it

Waterlogged decks make me wanna quit skating lol

[neon owl]

you skating with the bag on?

[empty coyote]

No, but i don’t keep it out in the rain :p

[neon owl]

lol.

then whats the bag for?

[empty coyote]

So i can protect it from rain when i’m going to the indoor park for example

[neon owl]

oh. didnt even think of that.

i got skateboard bags for storage on the ones that dont have shrinkwrap

[empty coyote]

I’m very particular about it lmao. Obviously a few drops of water does nothing, but decks are too expensive to get wet honestly

[neon owl]

its a good idea.

the closest indoor park to me is like 2 hours away i think. so if it rained.. i never really skated.

[hollow hazel]

You skating peeled or unpeeled

Hey guys does anyone know how to send the invites to friends if you forgot to put their emails in ?

[tiny prism]

Nope, anyone who got that email is under nda about it, so they can't talk about it

The last few messages in #1214598970370957374 has all the info currently available that anyone here can provide

I’ve been trying to get into the play test since day one, is it just more or less impossible?

[hoary flower]

guys how do i know if i got chosen for the playtest

[tiny prism]

You'll get an email with instructions

"after I finished putting all my 3 friends emails into the playtest form" is nda yeah

[hallow kindle]

Yes

My friend, actually 😅

[tiny prism]

I mean, there's nothing anyone here can do anyway

[hallow kindle]

Yeah and we never got into one so we don't know how this works

[tiny prism]

Read your email to find what to do for support

[hallow kindle]

I know, sorry to bother you guys, i will try email them or something

[hallow kindle]

Alright, i will see

I saw that right after we did that thing wrong 🤦‍♂️

I hope so 🙏

[austere torrent]

It is part of the NDA

It's content from the email / website etc ( just read the NDA or the keep in mind part of the email. Those questions should be asked to EA support or private forum related to playtest.

For example if they wanted to they could revoke the playtest from him just for asking that( it's all in the NDA )

uberlights were like $109 just for the deck when they came out

[hallow kindle]

Should i...delete all that or what? I didn't want to cause trouble

[austere torrent]

He wrote the wrong email to add the friend but "we " shouldn't have this Convo because he can only get to that part after signing stuff

[gleaming peak]

hi

[hallow kindle]

Yes, that's correct tho

[waxen apex]

What's good Nik

So I sign you up, you sign me up?

[austere torrent]

You can invite friends to the test, but only after you're in

[sudden warren]

Then maybe not

Sup kaiza

[waxen apex]

I finished Breaking Bad a couple nights ago. The show is amazing

[raw lark]

The comment section on YouTube videos on Skate review videos are so diverse

[neon owl]

have you already signed up?

[sudden warren]

Nice! Such an amazing show

[neon owl]

breaking bad is awesome

its addictive.

[worthy nebula]

My old boss was a German guy. He’s like 65 or older and he has one of the first boards made, ever. It’s metal and I keep asking him for it but I dont think he’ll ever give it to me. It’s just in his garage

definitely not an uber light

[austere torrent]

#1214598970370957374 read the last message

It's related to that but not the same

[gleaming peak]

Nothing much mane, you?

[waxen apex]

Oh just overthinking and undersharing

[austere torrent]

Do you guys think we will have pro skater challenges like the previous games?

Or events like SLS

[waxen apex]

Probably

[neon owl]

would love an SLS event

[waxen apex]

I hope they add pogo sticks. That might piss Nik off and it would be funny

[neon owl]

for SLS.. i wonder how they could do a rating. like hitting the 9 club.

[austere torrent]

Easiest way would be with points, like skate 3/2

[neon owl]

Yea. That would be the easiest. But then that can get abused

I'd like to land a cool trick and get rated on that

and then.. everyone figures out what gets the most points.. and everyones getting 9/10

[waxen apex]

I could use a peanut butter milkshake

[sudden warren]

Mine looks like the impact ones but could have sworn it was "something light"

[neon owl]

could be. that catalog is from 2009 i think. maybe they came out with another light

i have a bam fiberlight from element. where they put fiberglass in it.

[raven imp]

which games as the flick it control system except skate & fifa street ?

[neon owl]

fifa street has flickit?

[raven imp]

back then i think yea

[neon owl]

theres a couple games close to the skate flickit controls.. but not really exact. 'scoot' is a scooter game that controls like skate (sorta). you flick to jump. left stick to move. but the in air tricks use a combination of triggers and sticks to flick the tricks

theres some bmx games that control sorta the same way.

[raven imp]

no old games on console ?

[neon owl]

oh man. idk.

[scenic gull]

Anyone know when the skate game play test start?

[neon owl]

a lot of games that try to mimic skate are on pc.

[worthy nebula]

Only guesses so nothing officially

[neon owl]

how would you make the emoji? just like this?

[tiny prism]

The nda one?

[neon owl]

yea

have you made the design for it yet?

[tiny prism]

You seen the fight club poster? The one with the pink bar

That says fight club on it

[neon owl]

oh yeah. thats right.

lol. gonna be jeff with the soap

[tiny prism]

That hand with nda instead of fight club over a Pic of jeff

[raven imp]

rip ´when we’re ready’ sticker

[tiny prism]

Nah
It'll be reborn as
"we're ready
Join in!"

[neon owl]

a lot of words for a little soap bar.

gonna have to be a sticker

[tiny prism]

Nonono
This this

Wait that's right

Jeff removed the when we're ready sticker because it was admittedly a little antagonistic

[worthy nebula]

Maybe stupid question. Will we have graffiti tagging or nothing in the game like that?

[tiny prism]

Nothing has been shown like that

[worthy nebula]

Cool. Just checking

[scenic gull]

Only if we get a T.H.U.G remake will we have tagging in a skate game again

[neon owl]

forgot thug had that.

i need to replay it

[scenic gull]

Ikr , had thug 2 on my psp but it finally gave out 😭 rip psp

[sudden warren]

Wait omg that bam fiberlight!! On the bottom

[scenic gull]

Woahh braddock did remove WHEN WE ARE READY sticker

That must mean we are close af 👀 to the finish line

[tiny prism]

I have a psp but it's dead idk if the charger is dead, or the device is dead

[sudden warren]

I had it and I've been looking everywhere for another one

[tiny prism]

Need a new charger for it

The joystick also needs replaced, it's thrashed

I remember it being a not so bad little device once modded

Think I have Star wars battlefront 2 on there

[scenic gull]

I had that rob Deck, wow just fly me back to 2007

The 2000s was better than modern day in every way

[worthy nebula]

Facebook market place is a gold mine

[sudden warren]

I think I still have it i can't remember which thrashed up board I kept but I want a new one

[sudden warren]

Not for that deck:/

[neon owl]

This is my element

[worthy nebula]

Oh sorry. I missed out on the PSP comment

[sudden warren]

Psp?

[scenic gull]

Bam was at tonys park the other day. I hope they mocapped him for thps3 🙏🏼

[worthy nebula]

Someone said that they were looking for a psp and you commented under it that you were looking everywhere for another one so I assumed. My bad

[sudden warren]

I have some somewhere

[neon owl]

I seen they took a pic together

[sudden warren]

Gotchya, yea it was about the decks

[tiny prism]

I'm glad bam's doin better
God I hope he stays better

[neon owl]

everyone wants bam to get / stay better.

[scenic gull]

I am still hopeful, as of right now the roster is just the main 3, rodney tony and koston

Then in the Reveal trailer, we will have jaime foy! Lizze returns. And Tyshawn in a interview says he is back

We just got to wait for Full Roster reveal to see

[neon owl]

i seen an article that said bam wont be in the game.

i bet they got together tho as a sign of 'no hard feelings'

real friends understand. but i hope maybe that bam will make it in this game or a future one.

was it 'ryan dunn' that triggered his downward spiral? i mean.. its understandable why bam is how he is

[scenic gull]

Bam was on a downwards trajectory since ‘08, but yeah, once Dunn passed away in 2011, he would not let a single say go by NOT sober

This lasted until like. Last week. But it seems like he is finally cleaning up

[neon owl]

he was always a little crazy. but i can only imagine what its like losing a good friend that way.

[scenic gull]

I lost my best friend in 2019. It was not immediate for some reason. But in 2021 I finally mourned, and spent the whole year on. A bender

I get bam. Been there

[neon owl]

but i think hes been through this whole 'cleaning up' thing before.

im sure its hard.

[scenic gull]

Ahh yes he has, like 3 times hahah

We get soo exited. Then TMZ hits

“bam spits on fan drunk as a Elon rocket!”

[neon owl]

bam just has that personality. its hard to change how you are on the inside.

i can understand it. but i hope he finally stays clean

[scenic gull]

Same! Btw this convo reminds me

Is skate. bringing Pros on??

Like pay for this skin and you ride as Foy

[neon owl]

if it wasnt mentioned in the board rooms, then idk.

[scenic gull]

Prob too early, prob custom skater during Early Access Open Beta

But I am sure eventually. I mean. We gotta have a Coach Frank skin lol

[neon owl]

coach frank would be cool. and a throwback. bet a lot of people would be happy

[stable galleon]

Sorry for your loss, I lost my cousin in 2020 to suicide right when the pandemic hit, I could of easily found a bottle but alcoholism runs in my family and I didn’t want to be like my alcoholic cousin

[scenic gull]

I feel for you! I like to tell myself, that they are in peace as they never ever had to witness a world that became so divided after covid, mass misinformation, etc

[stable galleon]

Yeah we didn’t know about his depression cause he seemed so happy and hide it well but I goes to show check up on friends and family cause we just never know what a person is going through

[scenic gull]

Crazy inflation, trade war, etc etc

[neon owl]

it sucks and its sad. but you just gotta know that its not your fault.

[stable galleon]

Oh I know that can’t beat yourself up over the could of, would of, should of. I learn that at a young age after my uncle passed

[neon owl]

gonna be so cool watching everyone play and have fun

and people will stop talking about playtests. lol

[icy rain]

[neon owl]

oh no. i made the mistake. lol. the p word

noob

[stable galleon]

Hopefully the people that are in the pt have a good time

[tiny prism]

me too

[neon owl]

from the highlights. it looks like people are enjoying it and hanging out

[stable galleon]

Love the highlights, the grinds look so sick

[neon owl]

the grinds look so smooth. along with everything else. looks like a true upgrade from the old

[stable galleon]

I did love the dark slides in 3 those were always so dope

[neon owl]

everything looks fluid. and thats good

[scenic gull]

Hey

Phew i thought i was blocked omg

Phewww. It was because i said

Skate.

4

Skate

[neon owl]

lol. can someone block this dude?

jk

[scenic gull]

Ahhhh hahha you really cant say it

[gray fjord]

Kinda like COD Modern Warfare from 2019

[scenic gull]

Hmmm. Looks like they really did drop the sticker for “WHEN WE ARE READY”

[gray fjord]

No I mean that that game was also an evolution of the franchise

[scenic gull]

No one has beaten up nostalgia as much as Cod series.

But thps please keep giving me nostalgia fix (;

[gray fjord]

Literally lol

[neon owl]

but the old COD games are the best. so i can understand

[spark jewel]

Hey all new here, how many people here are in the play test and how many are waiting?

[scenic gull]

72,000 waiting, and the numbers of those playing rn are hidden due to NDA

[spark jewel]

Ah gotcha thanks

[gray fjord]

Is COD WWII considered old cause that's my favourite

[scenic gull]

Rumor on the street, we are allowed to speculate it is all good fun,

But rumor is this is the LAST play.test. happening. So Open Beta for All should be in like hmmm 6 months?

[gray fjord]

I think it was released in 2017 or 2016?

[abstract shuttle]

i mean judging by current skate discord server activity, they have invited so many people, so it would make sense why it may be the last one

[spark jewel]

@scenic gull crazy so, I was sort of shocked at how many are in the discord I guess Tony Hawks game is?

[neon owl]

i havent played any cod since BO3 and AW

[gray fjord]

Let's count MW3 as well

[scenic gull]

Ikr so many! Wait what about thps?

[gray fjord]

The old one not the new one

[neon owl]

i didnt get to play MW3, because the disc is scratched.

[gray fjord]

rip, I enjoyed the multiplayer a lot

[scenic gull]

I also heard around that the invite was MASSIVE! So it kinda does track to make this last internal batch

[gray fjord]

I was the squeaker kid you'd hear on the microphone lol

[worthy nebula]

Hoping for mobile

[spark jewel]

@scenic gull I haven’t played a skate game since the original tony hawk in the 90s so I am a bit out of the loop

[gray fjord]

1v1s and losing and screaming, I remember that

[scenic gull]

Oh man you need to play thps3+4 in july!

[gray fjord]

Who let 8 year old me play COD on the 360 LOL

[abstract shuttle]

i didnt get invited, but im glad this might be the last one, that means the game is finally getting the polish it needed

[spark jewel]

I’ll probably pass cause I am going to commit to this one Lol

[abstract shuttle]

im willing to bet an october launch

[scenic gull]

I was 8 when San Andreas dropped , who let me play gta hahah

[gray fjord]

This game is apart of the Skate series, which is very different from Tony Hawk's Pro Skater

[scenic gull]

Ahh man , same here, but tbh I am super calm because Open Beta for All aka Early Access will be here soon enough

[gray fjord]

I wish I could experience Skate for the first time again ngl

[neon owl]

but im not that old. i was just playing metal gear solid demo on ps1 at 8 years old

[gray fjord]

I miss demos

[scenic gull]

Ps1 dropped when I was born! So ps2 was my first

[gray fjord]

They still have them but like, not really

[spark jewel]

@gray fjord Yeah I don’t recall playing skate is there like high scores for landing tricks etc?

[gray fjord]

Not like they did before

[scenic gull]

Thps 1 was on a demo disc (; ill never forget that. It was thanks to my older bro i got to experience that

[gray fjord]

Yeah, this game has a score number and such, but you do tricks using the sticks and triggers, not square or circle or triangle

[scenic gull]

My first was thps 3 on ps2

[spark jewel]

@gray fjord Oh that’s way better imo

[neon owl]

there used to be a 'tips and tricks' magazine with cheat codes for every game. did you guys ever get those?

[gray fjord]

It's super fun, if you have an Xbox One or Xbox Series S/Xwith gamepass ultimate I believe you can get Skate 3 on there

[spark jewel]

I was trying to find info but there was non on if they will have season play and if the game on early access will be a free title or not

[neon owl]

pizza hut gave out demo discs too (i think) and tony hawk was on it

[spark jewel]

Have a Xbox S need the pass tho

[scenic gull]

Yup!! Pizza hut

[stable galleon]

When the ps1 dropped I wasn’t even a year old yet but I do remember playing my first console and it was snes

[scenic gull]

1999. I was 4, my memory faded but a decade ago I remembered

[gray fjord]

The game will be free to play, both for Early Access and for the proper launch of the game, which also means you won't have to pay a membership to play online

Season play, not sure, I don't think they've talked about that

[scenic gull]

Wow , my older cousin had snes. I loved it so much, always thought it was cooler than og Nes and even gamecube. But apples to oranges

[spark jewel]

@gray fjord Oh sick!! Guess I’ll be collecting boards!

[loud gulch]

does anyone have the link to the skate 3 modding server

[gray fjord]

I loved doing that in Skate 3, you could get boards for doing pro events, leveling up your company, completing challenges, etc, it was very cool

[stable galleon]

GameCube had some bangers but it sold poorly compared to n64 and Wii

[tiny prism]

i remember seeing those but never got one, i just looked stuff up on the internet
my friend would get them monthly though lmao

[spark jewel]

@gray fjord Omg now you got my hyped lol

[neon owl]

i had dial up. and i would only buy them from the magazine rack at walmart. lol

they had cheat codes for PS1 games like twisted metal 3

[gray fjord]

Skate also has a replay system, which allows you to record the tricks you do with a camera that you can control! That's where most of my time was spent with Skate 3, nailing a trick of line and setting up the replay in the perfect way

[tiny prism]

i always remember us having decent internet, i realize now how much of a literal luxury that was back then, and also how much we severely underutilized it lmao

[tiny prism]

yup i know the ones

[spark jewel]

I use to play fortnite with my nephew I have collected like 270ish skins I was invited to the beta but skipped it. But now this will be my redo lol

[neon owl]

i had dial up and had to wait like 2 hours to buffer a music video. lol

[gray fjord]

That's quite a lot of skins, nice on

[spark jewel]

Yeah just added up over time lol

[scenic gull]

How the F did I gloss over n64? No i change my answer, n64 is GOAT

[stable galleon]

My family was too poor to have internet in the early days I didn’t have a MySpace til like 07

[spark jewel]

Golden Eye n64

Bouncing Granada through hallways and across the map

Wow

[stable galleon]

Tom had the most friends which is kinda of cheating lol

Don’t for get the constant coding with your page I swear that always too forever

[spark jewel]

I was an EverQuest raider back then on 56k dial up and 32mb of ram lol

And diablo 2 broke computers needing 2GB of space to install

[neon owl]

yep. i dedicated a lot of time to the html and ccs coding to make my page look good. but it took FOREVER

[stable galleon]

I remember when pc games came with like 3-5 disc

[scenic gull]

I loved putting Cky music on my myspace page. Did it by html coding

Good times

[neon owl]

yea. you could have it autoplay when people clicked your page.

[dry night]

i had a playlist.com playlist embedded on my profile lol

[neon owl]

then they came out with a full playlist that you could embed

[neon owl]

maybe this. lol

[dry night]

it was something like that

[stable galleon]

Especially if they hide it and the music scared the hell out of you and you couldn’t turn it off cause of the coding to their page

[dry night]

playlist.com aint up suprisingly

[spark jewel]

@stable galleon I think some of my EQ disks came with like 5-8

[stable galleon]

Yeah I was rounding down lol

[spark jewel]

Then you get an error install on 4 rip out all the files and reformat and reinstall lol

[stable galleon]

We old heads who still love video games and other hobbies

[dry night]

i figured out why 😂

"On December 19, 2008, MySpace quickly began removing the Project Playlist music player from all profiles and subsequently leaving the affected users a message in their inbox which notified them of the removal. This amounted to a temporary ban of Project Playlist, largely due to complaints brought forth by the artists, asserting that Project Playlist should be paying royalties."

[spark jewel]

Napster

[neon owl]

nah. limewire bruh

[spark jewel]

Limewire still around for Ai Art

[neon owl]

real quick. how old is everyone? im only 13. lol

[wide galleon]

20

[spark jewel]

49

[dry night]

21

[spark jewel]

I was around when Pong was the game

[stable galleon]

100 lol nah im 31

[dry night]

wasnt around for limewire

[neon owl]

dang

[spark jewel]

Had Atari colleco Vision etc etc

[wide galleon]

Nice, Nice! i was born during the wii era! That was my freakin golden era!

I loved the wii so much!

[stable galleon]

Limewire was like opening Pandora’s box you either get a song or a virus…

Roll the dice

[spark jewel]

I was the first kid in school to own a NES

[wide galleon]

https://tenor.com/view/skate-skate3-coffin-coffin-flip-skateboarding-gif-26523601

[neon owl]

limewire was a risk. but i got a lot of music from it.

[wide galleon]

My reaction

[neon owl]

i got a lot of myspace music downloads too

[dry night]

i was burning music on cds when iwas like 4 lol

[spark jewel]

Super Mario was the game because I didn’t need to spend quarters on it in an Arcade anymore

[neon owl]

hollywood undead and a lot of big bands / singers started from myspace.

[wide galleon]

Has Superman by Goldfinger appeared in any Skate. game btw?

[gray fjord]

I'm currently on my 3rd month

[gray fjord]

Definitely not, no

does Skate have it's own Superman by Goldfinger actually

[stable galleon]

Yeah I remember that but by then I was like in my weird metalcore/hardcore phase that I never grew out, some of my favorite bands I found on MySpace

[neon owl]

i had this mp3 player called a 'zen v plus'.. you could plug the aux cord into any aux thing and press 'record'. and it would rip whatever was playing.

[wide galleon]

Licensing issues? Or some other unconfirmed thing by EA?

[gray fjord]

I'd vote Going Up The Country

[gray fjord]

Probably just didn't want it, I don't think they ever had Ska in Skate

[neon owl]

it was almost like recording a tape, but it would convert to mp3

[spark jewel]

I hope they keep the skins in this game extremely exclusive in its store rotation. As a collector exclusivity is a a thing lol

[dry night]

i hope they have a store where you can buy everything

[gray fjord]

But hey considering Tony Hawk has a something in his Activision contract to where her can't appear in another game other than Tony Hawk games, maybe Superman by Goldfinger is like that too?

[dry night]

i put on fo my city

[brittle hornet]

[dry night]

ytmp3

[spark jewel]

Are there unlocks in the skate series for boards that you need to get done? If you say want X board?

[dry night]

yeah pro challenges and stuff

in skate 3 most are board sales

[spark jewel]

Oh sweet

For in game currency or real $$

[dry night]

skate 1 and 2 was in game currency

[spark jewel]

Nice

[dry night]

everything in 3 was free but there was a dlc

[spark jewel]

Ah ok

[wide galleon]

Whats the general concensus for the "best" Skate. game?

[spark jewel]

I think the last skate game i played was on the ps1

[dry night]

my favorite was skate 2

[stable galleon]

Personally I like skate 3, skate 2 I played but didn’t put in a lot of time but 3 was like my go to skate game it was like my chill out game after yelling at cod bo2

[abstract shuttle]

pretty subjective

ive seen a lot of arguments on youtube, reddit about whether skate 2 or 3 is better, and imo, it's up to personal preference

[wide galleon]

Which one is more jank + funny? >:)

[dry night]

i just loved the skate 2 map. callin up big black when running from security was fun

thrasher challenges were fun too. wonder if theres gonna be any mags in the new game

[neon owl]

@dry night you still been playing streetdog?

fun game

[spark jewel]

Now I remember what game was the last skate game I played it was when you could unlock Spider-Man in TH

[green hollow]

that’s really all that it is

[dry night]

Ya ive been modding it a lil bit but the dev doesn't want me to show anything for the demo

Cant wait for a new map in that game

[neon owl]

youre moving up in the gaming world.

[dry night]

yeah can't wait for more challenges and all that

[neon owl]

i probably wouldve never played it if you didnt show me clips.

[dry night]

Haha sweet

nobody has aired onto the crate in the middle of the map yet

thats the ultimate goal for the tutorial map

[jolly nimbus]

i am now downloading streetdog

[neon owl]

i was looking at it. i wanna get it. but i cant figure out how to make it to the crate

its on my list. i wanna do it. but i cant find a good path to do it.

[dry night]

probably a wallride from the red wall from the 3rd roof

[neon owl]

i think the crate is just there to taunt us.

i really dont see a way. lol

[dry night]

Lol right

its possible

I've gotten close

[neon owl]

post the clip in offtopic so i can get an idea

because i wanna do it

[dry night]

alright one sec

[spark jewel]

Wow fans of this game have been waiting Forever for this new one eh?

[jolly nimbus]

we sure have

[spark jewel]

Crazy

[jolly nimbus]

i used to get up at 6am and watch zexxyzek for about 1hr30 then get ready for school. every day from when i was 6 till about 10-11

waaaa

i am fiending

[dry night]

got skate 1 with my 360 for christmas in 08 and got skate 2 on release day. got skate 3 years a few years later and been waiting for 4 ever since

Lol what year

[neon owl]

it was before the skate 1 demo released

idk what year

[abstract cliff]

Cod waw is goated wym

[dry night]

I also enjoyed waw

[neon owl]

but i didnt know that. i didnt want COD. i wanted halo

but then when i played WAW. and realized.. 'this is amazing'

[abstract cliff]

Play campaign on hardest difficulty, find some cover and have grenade thrown at you every two seconds

[neon owl]

i got all the achievements

heart of the reich is a hard level on veteran

theres also that map.. when you come in.. and all the japanese are pretending theyre dead.

[abstract cliff]

Oh yeah!

Stealthy until it wasn't

[neon owl]

waw is great.

[dry night]

my dad got that game for his ps3 in like 2012. by that time all the multiplayer lobbies were ruined 😂

met this guy who hosted modded zombie lobbies tho, that was fun

[neon owl]

yea. cod got ruined on ps3 multiplayer later

[abstract cliff]

It was shamefully easy to mod that game

[neon owl]

i played cod waw later on ps3.. and there were so many rainbow names and scripts going across the screen

[abstract cliff]

BO2 is like that these days too if you play the original way

I remember one time I made my own mod menu specifically for trick shotting purposes

[dry night]

i cant get into a bo2 lobby on console without a cheater

on xbox

the most i ever did on console was watch infection clips lol

[abstract cliff]

If you have a pc you can play plutonium which is unmodded servers or modded serves that are fun and fair

[dry night]

Ya I use to play that I just got back into iw4x

Suprised to see servers are still being hosted

[abstract cliff]

The KSG shotgun was op you could snipe across the map with it

[hidden bronze]

Sup yalllll!

[dry night]

I remember watching videos of how you could get insane combat axe throws in snd

[hidden bronze]

How yall doin

[neon owl]

wassup my aussie homie

[hidden bronze]

How you living life rn big toasty? Doing good?

[scenic gull]

i remeber rob and big showed off a beta of skate 1 in 2006

but we have since found oiut it was not the real beta lol

skate 1 in 2006 was still wire frame and white box environment

[hidden bronze]

That’s funny to think about

I wonder what that ‘beta’ looked like then

Omg hahahaha 😭

As true as it is, that’s so embarrassing to me now 🤣

[neon owl]

its whatever. lol

what you doing tonight?

[neon owl]

wasnt it on an episode or something?

[hidden bronze]

Relaxing after taking some cans and bottles to the recycling plant. Earnt about $82 AUD for the endeavour, so I treated myself to some lunch. Now I’m at home just chilling

[neon owl]

nice. we... have to pay money to recycle.

[hidden bronze]

No way.

😭

[scenic gull]

yes! it was soo cool to have witness that live on MTV

damn im so old to remember 2006 like it was yesterday

i miss the mid 2000s , best era of all eras

[neon owl]

but.. we can take them to certain places and get some money on it. but the pay is so low.. it doesnt even matter. it used to be more for aluminum/ glass/ metal.

[hidden bronze]

Over here it’s 10 cents a can/bottle, the place I went to does it by bulk on conveyor belts you can empty your stuff onto, and you get paid by the total amount minus any defected items

Bummer to hear that. Even here it’s not much, in the long run. We just fill up bags over a few months with the soda cans we get with our groceries.

But we get something back, so there is that.

[neon owl]

my grandma still crushes cans, strips wire for the copper, etc.

[hidden bronze]

Gnarly. Suppose if it’s worth something, it’s worthwhile.

Ahhh, interesting.

On the other hand. THPS 3 + 4 coming to Game Pass day one is fantastic.

This will be my first THPS game since my age was in single digits, playing them on the PS2.

[jolly nimbus]

ok? i dont know how that affect what i mean. its 4am for me on sunday but what difference does that make to peak

but yeah no i cant wait for the game to come out

[scenic gull]

I just realized it has been a min since a Boardroom

[raven imp]

if you wise, yes

[neon owl]

what you think of how the remake is going?

[hidden bronze]

I think it looks pretty good from what the trailer! I haven’t played a THPS game in forever. It’ll take some getting used to, if I decide to play it.

[neon owl]

ive been replaying thps4

[hidden bronze]

I think I’ve seen some of your tweets about that, actually!

[neon owl]

thps4 is fun

[hidden bronze]

It actually looks like it, too

Saw you doing the Alcatraz stuff!

[neon owl]

im stuck on this kona map with the 'snake run' now.

[hidden bronze]

Ahhh

Seems neat

[neon owl]

you should try it. lol

[spark jewel]

So I hope they keep the cosmetics to like clothing such as jackets/shoes and boards and not like COD or Fortnite. I think we are good for those cosmetics lll

Just a thought I don’t really want a flaming banana skin

[visual oracle]

just a banana skin would be funny

[indigo ridge]

Yoo I’m back guys I got banned for accidentally cursing sorry y’all 😂🙏

Lmao I literally played skate 3 all day today while I worked just to hear the soundtrack 🙌🙌🙌🔥

[spark jewel]

@visual oracle it would be but I be more hyped for like trendy brand clothing that I can’t afford in real life Lol

[hollow hazel]

Backfired massively because now all I want is to skate as a flaming banana

Call me hot bananas

[neon owl]

what trick would be called a 'cruntslide'

[visual oracle]

I don't follow brands close enough to care tbh so

[hollow hazel]

Bluntslide while grabbing crail

[visual oracle]

like, y'know the Panda head that's in Session?

[hollow hazel]

Like a crailslide but stupider

[visual oracle]

stuff like that but for other animals would be cool for this game.

[hollow hazel]

Yeah I’m all for people being able to skate as their spirit animal

[spark jewel]

@hollow hazel ok ok maybe a Flaming Banana wasn’t a bad idea

Or a DopePickle perhaps

Or a ToxicParogie

[hollow hazel]

Powdered toast man

[spark jewel]

Lol

Flopping Pancake

Going to be honest though with the amount of people in discord they going to need a 1:1 scale NYC for us to skate in if it’s online only open world

Like how GTA has the mask

Because I am well a racc

[meager cradle]

How much you have rn

[spark jewel]

I am on a disability pension. And have -$9.80 in the bank unfortunately have to wait till 19th

[upbeat escarp]

Did you guys hear thps 3+4 won't be open world?

[spark jewel]

Oh wow

[neon owl]

[upbeat escarp]

Sadly...

[neon owl]

its really just thps4 im worried about being open world / npc challenges

[spark jewel]

This is open world correct?

[upbeat escarp]

I can't wait till this game releases

[upbeat escarp]

Yes

[spark jewel]

Sweet

[upbeat escarp]

👀 I got ✉️ that told me to come back here...

Not gonna say anything else

But I would like to see animal mask customization

[spark jewel]

Or just be Animal from
The muppets skating around

[upbeat escarp]

You know how in GTA they have different kinds of animal mask?

[native marten]

are the online servers still up?

[upbeat escarp]

I would love that just for my character because I think my steam will be connected to the game

[spark jewel]

[spark jewel]

CFB? Don’t know the acronym

[native marten]

College Football

[spark jewel]

I mean I did play Sims Online

Don’t think Anyone remembers that one lol

[upbeat escarp]

Wasn't skate always a ea game?

[native marten]

yeah

[spark jewel]

Yeah you can still get them in the EA shop on Xbox S

[upbeat escarp]

Me rolling up in a raccoon mask with my Texas longhorns jersey

[spark jewel]

Hockey Jerseys

[upbeat escarp]

[upbeat escarp]

Basketball jerseys

[neon owl]

[native marten]

i wish college basketball would make a come back

[upbeat escarp]

There is no telling what full circle can add in

[spark jewel]

What I really would like is a High Score record that can’t be “rigged” lol

Globally

[upbeat escarp]

I need me collabs in the game like artist merch or video game merch

[spark jewel]

Locker rentals open a shop in game lol

[upbeat escarp]

I kinda want a hall of meat game mode comeback

[spark jewel]

Hmm wonder if this game seeing it will be online only have regional servers

[upbeat escarp]

I would like it to have regional servers

[visual oracle]

what do you mean?

[bold furnace]

All that waiting for it to be mid

[spark jewel]

@visual oracle like if there won’t be a way for people to artificially inflate scores

[bold furnace]

CFB was disappointing

[spark jewel]

There is a massive EA sale atm on Xbox NHL 25 deluxe for $38

[scenic gull]

Im on pc so i did not get to play CFB

I still have ncaa ‘14 lmao

[olive junco]

hello, i have seen some notes, several of them say that the game will be free, is there any information about this?

[neon owl]

free to play

[olive junco]

wow.

that sounds cool

there will be some type of microtransaction?

[visual oracle]

there's also the stuff on these stickers here

[olive junco]

ty

is the best slogan I have ever seen.

[upbeat escarp]

I hope we get some live events of some sort kinda

[native marten]

something is wrong if you think that game was mid

[upbeat escarp]

I would like a concert just on the middle of the beach

[bold furnace]

Glitchy

Glitchier then madden

[tough quiver]

just signed up for playtest for skate, with over 100 days of gameplay in skate 3 im so keen hopefully i will get an invite! 😄

[icy rain]

Check #1214598970370957374 and https://www.ea.com/games/skate/faq for info on Playtesting.

(make sure you're signed up - and with your correct EA account - to ensure you get the sweet skate. Insider gear when Early Access drops in 2025!)

[neon owl]

hey austin. lol

[bold furnace]

How’s it going toasty

[native marten]

really? I never got glitches on my end

[bold furnace]

Way to many glitched blitzes I’ll be max protect blocking my whole o-line and some how blitzes are still getting through Nano blitzes are the death of football games

I’d rather play madden or CFB over 2k though wish EA would bring back NBA Live 🥹

[neon owl]

im alright. you?

[upbeat escarp]

I need me this in the game

[bold furnace]

Living the dream getting ready to drive my head through plywood lmao

[plain owl]

is it part of the nda to ask if the time ive been given my time or usa? (for you know what)

[upbeat escarp]

I don't ask for much besides the board and a raccoon mask

[neon owl]

living the dream. lol. me too

im just doing a replay of thps4

[bold furnace]

Brooooo I wanna hook up my ps2 so bad but I’d have to get it out of storage I just finished moving like a week ago but procrastinating and unpacking little by little

[neon owl]

do you like your new place? i hate moving

[upbeat escarp]

Alr I'm going to bed gotta get up soon to see if my card arrived

[spark jewel]

I can’t decide what to play lol

[gleaming peak]

This always makes me laugh, how can skate even have paid gameplay advantages?! Like what they gonna do, give someone x50 per trick. That wouldn’t even be logical

[visual oracle]

I donno, I assume they just put that on there because people were saying stuff like that since the free to play thing got announced.

[storm mauve]

oi oi oi

[neon owl]

there were jokes about tre flips would be unlocked for $30 or something.

[storm mauve]

unlock pushing with 45$

[spark jewel]

They would make the biggest money on cosmetics and had everything else free. More people playing means more people spending money on Bling

Gating gameplay means less people playing. Cosmetics is for the most part a Cash walrus

[serene hedge]

Can someone friend me for modded skins

[neon owl]

yea. i think theyre just making it clear. because there was a time when EA was getting microtransactions for a lot of things.

[spark jewel]

I played SWTOR so I know how that went

From pre beta to 6 years of subscriptions

Err pre launch

Love SWTOR though

One of the coolest things I have Seen regarding cosmetics was EverQuest had a studio for players to submit there own for store sales. If it was accepted you would receive 10% royalties.

Think daybreak kyboshed it though

Custom decals players could submit in this game be a boon in this game but doubt EA would allow it lol

[neon owl]

i think the star wars game or something that got people upset with EA.

[spark jewel]

Yeah I was heavy in that game when that was a fiasco

[neon owl]

but i think people have mostly forgot about that. and theyve been doing good lately from what i can tell. i think they wanted to make it clear that skate wasnt gonna be that.

[spark jewel]

That is something that is refreshing. Star Wars the old republic is still heavily gated but if you got the right unlocks you can enjoy it forever

[neon owl]

yea. star wars was a big deal. lol

[tough swan]

any update on friend invitations for the survey issue 🦌

[spark jewel]

^ my friend is waiting lol

[bold furnace]

It’s an adjustment this is my first ever apartment alone with my girlfriend my state is very expensive so when I was hourly I lived with family and rented a room..

but now that I make salary and my girlfriend has a full time job it makes rent and bills 20x easier plus when I was renting a room from family members I used that time and worked on my credit score so that also helps a lot

[neon owl]

nice.

[sonic crow]

invite please :))?? Any1?

what does that mean? can u invite me im tryna play rn

oh ok i alr signed up

[spark jewel]

Then wait for an email and hope you get chosen

You can always log in to your EA account check your status. I think

[undone turret]

bored but got music playing to hopefully chill

[neon owl]

i use pandora for music. i love their algorithm.

[undone turret]

spotify

or soundcloud

those are my main two

[neon owl]

spotify is good. the sound quality is a lot better than pandora. soundcloud too.

i just love pandoras algorithm

[sonic crow]

when can iget my heelflips back

[undone turret]

soundcloud is where i found a lot of artists before the tiktok artist blowup stuff

like i found $uicideboy$ when they had only 300 followers or so

[neon owl]

idk if they still have it. but my favorite part of soundcloud is seeing peoples reactions / comments during certain parts of the song

[undone turret]

they still have it

it’s honestly kinda insane they do

[neon owl]

but the sound quality is pretty good too.

[hollow hazel]

Riiiiight… now

[undone turret]

spotify will always have the best audio quality imo but soundcloud is made for the artist

[sonic crow]

i can def get them fakie heelflips faster than goofy. i been trying goofy but imma just quit and stick to fakie... 😦

is that lame 😦

[undone turret]

i have divorced dad rock on rn lol

[hollow hazel]

Yo I always had an easier time doing fakie heels too it must be something to it

[neon owl]

i think spotify goes up to 320kbps? thats pretty good for streaming

[sonic crow]

its always easier to fakie and flip

idk why

[undone turret]

i can look

[hollow hazel]

Absolutely not skating is rad no matter what, I used to cheat nollie heels by just doing a little floater over hips

[undone turret]

free is 160kbps premium is 320

[neon owl]

i think pandora only goes up 128. and standard is 64 kbps aac

[undone turret]

i used to use pandora

[neon owl]

and you can really hear the difference

[undone turret]

especially since i’m an audiophile yeah the difference is 100% noticeable

[neon owl]

pandora is so low quality. lol. if it wasnt for their algorithm.. id choose a different streaming service

[undone turret]

my downloads i have at the lowest quality so i can have everything downloaded (16K songs) under 50gb

yes i am dead serious when i say 16,000 songs

[neon owl]

pandora and youtube is how i find 90% of my new music

[neon owl]

i believe you. i have an old windows xp pc with music downloaded. its a lot. ill see if i can find how much.

[undone turret]

see i still use soundcloud for that it’s probably because i found X on there and i just have more value to it

[undone turret]

some of the albums i have on discs also

i wanna get nirvana’s in utero since i already have nevermind

[neon owl]

i havent ripped my CDs. but i think i have like.. 280 CDs i need to rip.

[undone turret]

i bought all mine from retail stores or had friends give em to me

i haven’t burnt anything

i’ve ripped but haven’t burned

[neon owl]

mine are bought CDs. i even have a shrek soundtrack. lol

[undone turret]

i got some CDs ripped onto my original xbox that was made in 2002 (my units production year)

[undone turret]

lol kinda want that now

i got scorpions, billy joel, ac/dc, metallica, alice cooper and more

ahhhhh i love me some Creed

[neon owl]

got a lot of that. im posting some of my CDs to #off-topic

[undone turret]

yeah i’m tryna get to that level

[neon owl]

i wish they all had cases.

[undone turret]

i have cases for all of mine

[neon owl]

thats better. mine are just discs and some booklets

[undone turret]

well all but one

that one is my Queen & Ben Elton We Will Rock You album cuz it came in a CD player i bought 4 years ago

i got fleetwood mac also

[neon owl]

i have about 60gb of music from before 2012. i took a photo one time of how many songs, runtime, etc. but i cant find it right now.

i say before 2012 because that was what was on my windows xp pc at the time.

[undone turret]

dang

i’m trying as hard as possible to keep my language clean

[swift frost]

I'm still yet just jump on an algo bandwagon for tunes, just jam my phone full of rips, I call it the apocalypse mix

My friends are the algo haha

[undone turret]

ngl this is the first time i’ve played Rage Against (not Rage Against The Machine) in a long time

[neon owl]

rage against. not that one. lol

i hear you.

[undone turret]

lol

yeah my language is really common where i’m from so nobody really has a problem with it and i’m not used to that

[rose night]

make Isaac Clarke appear in the next Skate

[undone turret]

lol

[rose night]

it's uh

[undone turret]

i know

he’s in skate 3

[rose night]

ik it's not related to Skate but

[undone turret]

i have him

[rose night]

a guy in Battlefield Hardline was playing Dead Space 1 in the mansion raid

i am on that part of the immortal dude in chapter 5 btw

[undone turret]

i know, i beat hardline

[rose night]

nice

we need more Isaac Clarke appearences

(and Dead Space 2 Remake when)

[long wedge]

Was there anything about them adding hall of meat again?

[last bloom]

i mean 1,2 and 3 had them

so it would make sense to add it back

[stray elm]

I really hope this game releases before thps 3+4

[undone turret]

i forgot it’s 3am lmao

[balmy urchin]

Been on this waiting list for months, still no sign of being able to playtest 😮‍💨

[scenic gull]

bro ive been on since day one even updated to say im on ps5, stll no luck, its all down to chance sadly

[quaint mason]

did any one here back the session game and watch it burn and turn into an awful joke?

[autumn wave]

Ya I’ve been on since they put out the playtest played it when it was easy to get in but honestly just wanna wait for the full thing

[autumn wave]

Didn’t get accepted but honestly just wanna wait till release

[empty coyote]

Session has become a joke. Over two years past «full release» and still no Goofy stance, and still placeholder animations

[scenic gull]

bro ikr, and they just scrapped the unreal5 transfer

[thin tide]

@empty coyote they lost me years ago when they gave up on giving the game multiplayer.

[empty coyote]

They did that twice 😂

[scenic gull]

bro what hah

they need animations and nps life PRONTO

[empty coyote]

No why?

Just a tuesday?

[visual oracle]

hell yeah i like tuesday.

[prisma umbra]

.. / .- -- / . -..- -.-. .. - . -..

[solemn stream]

man EA keeps baiting me with the "your invited to the" and then i opn the email and its just fifa XD

[thin tide]

The most annoying lol

[empty coyote]

actually i don't have work on tuesday, so that is something to be excited for

[scenic gull]

Tuesdays are nice days

[hybrid pawn]

Yeah

[lapis kite]

hi guys, is there any other way to get early access? I've been waiting for an official invitation for a long time, and nothing has arrived

I understand that there are hundreds of people like me, I just want to know

[scenic gull]

Honestly broski, it is over. This is just rumors. But allegedly this was the last internal invite-only play.test.

So just sit tight because next go around would be the Open Beta for All / Early Access drop (;

Ik it must suck to never get invited, ik how you feel!
