[dull pilot]

Sign up asap. We'll be inviting everyone (in waves) who signed up as a skate. Insider for the next playtest update.

[unreal viper]

[dull pilot]

you'll get an email with more info

[unreal viper]

copy, preciate it

[neat sinew]

if i’m signed up am i garenteed

[dull pilot]

you're guaranteed to get an invite once the waves start rolling out.

now, if you don't follow the info in the invite, RSVP in time, or whatnot, you may not get in, so make sure you're checking your email and follow the info in the email to lock in.

[radiant latch]

I would recommend if you haven’t signed up to sign up ASAP

Read on between the lines

[modern radish]

Jokes on them, I didn’t read the NDA so they can’t hold me to it /j

[dull pilot]

hahahah

[tiny fiber]

I really enjoyed own the lots

It was probably my favorite, even though most of the times you run out of time just before you do the last quest haha

[dry sparrow]

bet

[tiny fiber]

Own the spots on the other hand, I didn’t enjoy so much lmao

[dusk walrus]

@dull pilot pardon me, how would I be able to get in contact a bit more privately?

RE: Playtesting Discussion in this Server

you cannot, in any way, discuss details of being in the Playtesting program, receiving emails/invites, your status in the Playtesting program, details about the playtest build or activities as you agreed to the Playtesting Pre-Release Confidentiality Agreement (NDA) when you signed up as a skate. Insider/EA Playtester.

per the agreement, until the NDA is lifted, you may only state "I signed up."

this is not a playtest support server, and we cannot share details on current or upcoming Playtests outside of what we have shared in the #announcements #game-announcements or #1214598970370957374 sections.

all needed information will be sent to invited playtesters via email prior to or as their testing wave starts.

your fellow community members are trying to remind you of this to avoid infractions that could result in the Moderation team giving you a warning, timeout or mute, or even remove you from the server (as it is called out in the #rules - and we don't want that to happen to anyone.)

[dull pilot]

If you need to report moderation or have a question about this discord server, open one of the tickets at #support-desk

If it’s for playtesting support, if you’re invited, post on the forums, please.

[dusk walrus]

understood, thankyou!

[waxen apex]

How you doing today, Jeff?

[dull pilot]

Doing alright. You?

[waxen apex]

Doing great! Listening to Dayglow right now

[vale anchor]

Hope everyone is having a good Monday

[sudden warren]

Jeff are you happy these "can I dm you for my super secret, totally not playtest related question?" Requests are soon going to end?

[vale anchor]

The secrets are obviously just people wanting to surprise Kuma with something

[sudden warren]

Busy and sunburnt but good

[dull pilot]

honestly, ain't no thing.
all DMs go into a request box now.

if i check 'em, i check 'em.

[sudden warren]

Fair! Good system

Learned alot today at work about some new stuff, it'll be REDACTED along with some REDACTED over the next REDACTED time frame.

[vale anchor]

Having the requests separate from the reg DMs has been nice. Rare good discord change

[sudden warren]

See i can do this stuff too hehe 😜

[dull pilot]

especially because I'm in like 20 EA Discord servers, not counting all the other game servers (of games I play) that I'm in.

[sudden warren]

Yea, I still hate that there's a notification like "1" though until you clear it.

[vale anchor]

"I'm not saying I'm in the redacted but hypothetically if I were and hypothetically wanted to hypothetically talk about this theoretical thing..."

[sudden warren]

Lmao perfect

[dull pilot]

hahahah

[cloud sierra]

If you tryna hit on some cards n make some pape hmu (no bs )

[sudden warren]

Nice meeting you... CYA

[dull pilot]

huh? wanna clarify that?

[vale anchor]

I understand most of those words individually...

[dull pilot]

I mean, when I'm tryina hit on some cards, I'm usually sitting at a Blackjack or poker table in Vegas.

I have a friend whose last name is Pape, so ..

Do I need to go to Vegas with my friend?

[vale anchor]

Oh, this is a super secret message meant only for Jeff to understand! Probably have a whole oceans 11 mission waiting for you.
You know what you must do

[dull pilot]

Start playing Viva Las Vegas by Elvis?

[vale anchor]

As you ride away from the sunset on your wild hog, yes.
(Clearly not into the sunset because that would put you in the ocean)

[dull pilot]

Riding into the sunset from Vegas would just take me back home to Long Beach. lol

[vale anchor]

At least you have a star to guide you

[dull pilot]

The sun, yes. lol

hahahah

[vale anchor]

Maybe don't stare at it though...

[sudden warren]

Nah it's fine

[worldly sluice]

Hey guys I have a question, Like where can I get answers about the playtest, the forums right? cause i'm like confused

[vale anchor]

You don't seem confused

[worldly sluice]

so im right about the forums? imma have to wait for someone to answer my question in the forums?

[vale anchor]

Since that's the only place you're allowed to talk about it, yes

[worldly sluice]

thanks

[scenic gull]

Im excited for thps3*4,

[ember birch]

[dull pilot]

Answers about the Playtest? We have an FAQ on the website or #1214598970370957374 has a ton of info.

SPECIFIC details about the Playtest - reporting bugs, issues, feedback - are the private Playtest forums that Playtesters have access. Link is sent via email and you must sign in with the EA account you're playtesting.
If you're not yet in the playtest, the public info shared in #1214598970370957374 is the info that's relevant.

[timber turret]

i have a question about skate. but I'm scared ill get warned again

i dont want to break the nda

[dull pilot]

If it’s something that’s under NDA, post on the forums.

It’s not complicated - public information we’ve announced can be discussed here. Details about playtesting that are covered by the NDA cannot.

[river gyro]

Why have I just woke up at 11pm???

[carmine gale]

I agree, like Skate in bed, in the palm of your hands, maybe a nice alcoholic beverage and a good snack, perfect night for me

[scenic gull]

We are so close to Year 5 Reveal

[river gyro]

So close yet so far

[dull pilot]

Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters

[final tinsel]

Is the wave this month the last one?

[river gyro]

Yeaaaaah eaaaaaaaah

[carmine gale]

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
We want Skate on Switch Twooooooo

[river gyro]

Ahahahahaha

[carmine gale]

I couldn’t resist lol

[scenic gull]

It does not seem like it. Maybe, hopefully, just 1 more Wave in August. Then that way, Open Beta drops afterwards

[dull pilot]

Just wait for The Grind: Vol 3. I promise, the info is in there.

[river gyro]

Damnnn.

[scenic gull]

Oh that is really cool a timeline will be featured in vol. 3. Only a couple weeks left to gooo

Well not dates, but still glad it will be touched on

[woven pebble]

You need to ask others in the forum. This isn’t the place for it.

[worldly sluice]

It's not? mb then y'all, sorry

[woven pebble]

It’s not.

[worldly sluice]

Well I know that now don't gotta be rude about it 🙂

[woven pebble]

I’m sorry, you’re right. I came across rude. It really isn’t, though.

[sour arrow]

hi guys

[dull pilot]

This is posted daily by the bot. #general-discussion message

Sometimes people forget, so we have it on auto post to remind folks.

[worldly sluice]

I'm sorry too, I just wanted to ask a question I didn't know where to ask it, I never use discord so I was confused on what and where to go, And it did across rude (to me) but I knew you meant well

[woven pebble]

Right on. No hard feelings. I hope you find the answers you’re looking for on the skate forum.

[worldly sluice]

Thanks bro

[sour arrow]

there's a mobile game?

[woven pebble]

My pleasure

I wake up every day hoping the next grind installment drops. That’s how excited I am for the what’s to come for the game that I love.

[worldly sluice]

Honestly same, I always look through out my day look to see if anything was posted on youtube, like a highlight video just to see what's new. I've been waiting since they announced it in 2020 to see what they do with it. It feels so close to the early access at the end of the year but it's still like 6 months.

[woven pebble]

Same. The good news is 6 months goes by so fast. It will be here before you blink.

[worldly sluice]

I mean yes and no, 6 months is like nothing, BUT if skate is on your mind alot (like me) and you're very excited for it time feels slower to me atleast

[woven pebble]

It feels slower, but it really isn’t. I know it’s a cliche, but patience really is a virtue.

[scenic gull]

So weird how effing young I was exactly 5 years ago when EA Play announced SKATE IS BACK

Time flew by but not without struggles, joy, pain, glory

And. Now we are here. So close to a tangible product

[river gyro]

5 years I’d have been 19

[hidden bronze]

How yall doin?

[rigid slate]

dang doesnt even seem like that much time has past

Everything like post 2020 fast Forwarded🤣

[scenic nova]

Wait has it rly been that long?

[lethal abyss]

All these video game annoncements and still nothing for Skate. 🥲

[tiny prism]

@lethal abyss

In relation to showing stuff at the recent shows

[bold geyser]

anyone know if i’m allowed to ask if a play test is coming to australia?

[scenic gull]

It is so hard to believe but yes 😭

[scenic nova]

There is no way I was 13/14 when it was announced 😭 🙏

[wraith snow]

how we feelin chat

[wraith snow]

pretty sure its already worldwide, just gotta be signed up to be an insider/tester

[radiant latch]

In my local area I go to the city council the lobby for new skateparks to be built

[dusk walrus]

good morning everyone!

[zealous sinew]

I feel like this game might drop soon

[dusk walrus]

they could say when it drops next month, they could wait until the first week of december to say the game drops newyears eve

[meager thistle]

gang

[zealous sinew]

Jeff giving me the vibe that it might drop soon

Actually nvm I forgot we still have another playtest and that’s not til august

[dull pilot]

is it now?

interesting.

[worldly sluice]

sending mixed signals now???

[dull pilot]

no.

[worldly sluice]

oh? okayy? I see

[dull pilot]

Feel free to expound on your assumption, but I'm not going fishing, so if you have something to say, don't be shy.

[worldly sluice]

When you said this and when @zealous sinew said that he has a vibe about it something seems fishy yk

[dull pilot]

no, I don't know. Please explain.
He said "we still have another playtest and that's not until august".

I replied.
"is it now?"
As in, Is it in August? Hmm. interesting.
Because we've stated the next playtest waves (because the playtest has been ongoing since September) start at the end of this month.

[fervent sorrel]

🤨

[worldly sluice]

ohh then never mind I thought you were being like suspicious but I guess you where being literal

[vale anchor]

[dull pilot]

yeah, being coy doesn't help. so I don't do that.

[vale anchor]

"don't be suspicious, don't be, don't be suspicious!"

[tardy sphinx]

So when are they adding more people to the play test?

[dull pilot]

We’ll talk in more detail about Update 0.27.0 in The Grind Vol 3 next month, so stay tuned and get your questions in. Reminder, our next big push of Playtesting invites will happen in late June, so keep an eye on your email inbox.
#1365004983212179578 message

[tardy sphinx]

Nice

I hope I get in I'm getting stir crazy

[dull pilot]

if you signed up, you will get an invite.

[tardy sphinx]

I've signed up like 4 times

[dull pilot]

then wait for an email.

it's coming.

[foggy yacht]

Trust the process

[tardy sphinx]

exasperation

[modern radish]

Me staring at my email as if it’s gonna speed it up

[worldly sluice]

fr

[tardy sphinx]

You're telling me I've been trying to get in since play test launched

[modern radish]

I am telling you :3 /j

[drowsy sierra]

is more play testing happening today?

[dull pilot]

playtesting has been ongoing since September.
we're going to start invite our next waves to RSVP in the coming weeks for the big push of invites for 0.27 build.

[tardy sphinx]

Why are there so many skate players that don't skate like go out and skate

[fervent sorrel]

why is there so many call of duty players like go into war

[dull pilot]

it really doesn't matter if they skate IRL or not.

[tardy sphinx]

Yes it does

Go skate

[dull pilot]

no, it doesn't.

[mystic current]

@tardy sphinx Ur missing the plot bro…

[tardy sphinx]

Go skate

[dull pilot]

right?
I should never play Uncharted since I don't go adventuring for lost treasures. 🙄

lol

[tardy sphinx]

True

You should go adventuring

[vale anchor]

Ok on this one I'm going to have to agree... You should be adventuring

[dull pilot]

last time I adventured, I shattered my left knee falling down a non-active volcano in the Caribbean on my skateboard.

[vale anchor]

Why are there so many skaters that that play skate? Like put the controller down and stick to the non virtual world. Geez

[tardy sphinx]

Because skateboarding at night

[vale anchor]

Missed opportunity to say
"I used to be an adventurer like you, then I took a volcano to the knee"

Skateboard still rolls at night 😤

[tardy sphinx]

Most skateparks close at 8pm

[vale anchor]

My bad. I forgot that's the only place skating is allowed

[tardy sphinx]

Street skating is lame

Downhill and park skating are the only viable versions of skateboarding

[vale anchor]

You're right. That's why I mall grab and walk if I'm not inside the park

Whoa sick! Your parks have downhill sections?
Mine don't and I refuse to be a street skater. Can't skate in the street even if it's downhill

[tardy sphinx]

Some of em have snake runs but parking structures don't count as the street 😋

[dull pilot]

Street skating is lame = um, I think Andrew Reynolds would have a thought about that.

[tardy sphinx]

I don't care

[vale anchor]

Parking structure = fake hill. Fake skater frfr

[tardy sphinx]

Go do a kickflip then

[vale anchor]

not by a park atm oh well

[tardy sphinx]

Alr poser

[vale anchor]

nice try trying to get me to skate in the street

[tardy sphinx]

Lol

[scenic gull]

He made some comfortable shoes with New Balance for older skaters with foot problems. Or like it actually has support compared to Vans eras

[hidden bronze]

Reynolds’ NB 933 is a fantastic looking shoe too IMO

[scenic gull]

It really is 🔥 so sick to see a older skater kill it with a pro model

[hidden bronze]

Speaking of Reynolds, I brought my ex-skater dad in to play the new Foundry demo of THPS 3+4, and I had to catch him up on all the newer skateboarders that were in the intro montage, hahaha

[vale anchor]

oh cool!

[hidden bronze]

It always puts a smile on my face seeing him light up when he tells me about when him and his buddies used to skate, about Rodney Mullen and Tony Hawk, and putting the controller in his hand to play the demo was quite fun to watch considering he hasn’t played a THPS game since 3 and 4

[unreal viper]

my fav tony hawk game was american wasteland lol

[vale anchor]

That's awesome ya'll can bond together on that! Something special right there

[hidden bronze]

I never knew he skated until I openly started getting into it by buying my first deck. He’s been a fountain of some earnest and honest wisdom, but our longest conversations are always about skateboarding !!

[tiny prism]

That's a rare opinion but I respect it, thaw was fun as hell (except the mission in the second map where you had to pull the green thing off the roof, that mission was bugged for me and I could never do it)

[light cosmos]

on my great granny uncle american wasteland is the best game i've ever seen in my entire life

[radiant latch]

First time I’ve heard of the .27 build

[median prawn]

https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8M3LxwQ/

[scenic gull]

I loved American wasteland cause you could drop your board. And just parkour and bmx the rest of the day xD

[zealous sinew]

Did they put Frog skateboards in the game?

[dull pilot]

it's the next build. you'll hear more about it in The Grind: Vol 3.

[sudden warren]

Ahoy! How is everyones Tuesday?

[meager thistle]

👋 Hello

[vale anchor]

I wonder what build .01 was like

[tiny prism]

I'd love to see super duper old footage of early tests
That stuff is so interesting and devs never show it off :(

[dull pilot]

Man, I remember playing years ago and seeing the signficant difference between then, now, and what's coming - it's amazing.

[vale anchor]

And it's the stuff I want to see the most

[tiny prism]

Yall just need to do what ghost ship games did deep rock galactic

Added a legacy version of the game to the steam beta tab, a 2018 build of the game
It's so vastly different and interesting

[scenic gull]

Version 0.0.27? Or v0.27?

[balmy viper]

is there a release date yet?

[dull pilot]

yes. we haven't shared it yet.

[meager thistle]

Great!

[loud thicket]

w name

[torpid torrent]

Lupe fiasco kick push song added to the game pls?

[scenic gull]

Wasnt that in skate 1? Or was it 2?

[scenic gull]

WHAT - internally yall got a date?!?

[hollow hazel]

I imagine the licensing fee for that 1 track would be monumental

[torpid torrent]

Man the fact it skipped all the other skate video games is insane

[torpid torrent]

No

[meager thistle]

Thanks!

[night hornet]

we need to get I Think by Tyler the Creator in the game 😭 I’ve always dreamt of this

[hollow hazel]

Who knows, maybe they tried and it was too expensive then as well

[torpid torrent]

I just found out the remaster of Tony hawk pro skater 3&4 got it

I doubt Lupe would be high charging for his songs

I bet he imagined more skate teams would pick up his songs for skate games

[hollow hazel]

You’d probably have to ask lupe

[scenic gull]

Kick push is in tony hawk downhill jam so that is prob why it got licensed to 3+4

[hollow hazel]

Well that explains it lol they already had the license

I think a lot of people don’t realise you can’t just put whatever songs you want into a game, even if the artist is ok with it there’s also record labels and producers to sort out contracts and licensing agreements

[scenic gull]

Ooo it is crunts lide, your avi made me think this was a new kid on the block

[hollow hazel]

New pfp new me ☀️

[torpid torrent]

“Kick, Push” is not solely licensed to Tony Hawk’s Downhill Jam and is available for broader use under standard licensing agreements. Its theme aligns well with skateboarding culture, which is why it was a fitting choice for the game.

[scenic gull]

What the gpt??

[torpid torrent]

Gbt helps look stuff up with links and resources

[scenic gull]

Skate. (Fur) will def have kick push. Aint no way

[scenic gull]

Who dis 📞

[torpid torrent]

Last one:
No public record or credible source confirms that Kick, Push was exclusively licensed to that game.

[scenic gull]

Oh i didnt say that. Kick push wasnt even exclusive to downhill back in the 2000s. Midnight club had it

[hollow hazel]

I always praise the skate trilogy for putting me on to so many different artists and songs I hadn’t heard, kick push is a great song but if it wasn’t on skate. I’d still live

[scenic gull]

Is it possible for skate. to do a spotify integration?

[hollow hazel]

skateify

[scenic gull]

Cause if not. They will need to spend the money on an insane and broad music licensing

[torpid torrent]

I wish gta had the Spotify dj as a station

Like you can link your Spotify to gta and your Spotify dj would play music

[hollow hazel]

Hear me out: that’s why the first 3 are great, because you can’t tell me goodbye horses by Q lazarus had an expensive license fee. Obscure songs/artists would definitely be more affordable

And I’d also imagine the soundtrack is gonna be another thing that would evolve over time like the map

[scenic gull]

Band of horses playing as they introduced jason dill. Jesus that is nostalgic

If they only have tiktok sounds ima flip a table

[hollow hazel]

I don’t know what that is 🔥

[scenic gull]

It is a flat top with 4 cylinder shaped legs

Really good for flipping

[dull pilot]

yep

[hollow hazel]

Tre flip the table ?

[scenic gull]

Oh yeah 🤘

[scenic gull]

That is very exciting. I am hoping for a September 14th release date (;

iykyk

[hollow hazel]

skate. day !

[dull pilot]

i mean, we have a date in mind, but things can change, which is why we haven't said anything firm publicly yet.

[tiny prism]

(they're waiting for my birthday)

[waxen apex]

(They're waiting for your birthday)

[scenic gull]

(They’re waiting for their birthday)

[zealous sinew]

Has anyone played mindseye yet, is it worth it?

[meager thistle]

watched streams on it all day, I wouldn't say it's worth 60

[hollow hazel]

Mindseye looks like one of the games of all time

[meager thistle]

yeah it's one of the ||worst|| games of all time

[hollow hazel]

Might win game of a year

The year being 1967

NDA homie

[worldly sluice]

saying it's fun is a no brainer even if you haven't been invited yet

[meager thistle]

Yeah I just said it's fun I don't think they'll be mad about that.

It's existence isn't a secret.

[hollow hazel]

Rules of the nda and server I’m just trying to save you getting muted or kicked

[meager thistle]

lol

[radiant latch]

He’s saying that the PT looks so much fun right?!?

[meager thistle]

Ok I withdraw my opinion and acknowledgement of said playtest.

[worldly sluice]

exactlyyyy

[hollow hazel]

The highlights look so fun I hope we all get invited next wave 🙏🏼

[scenic gull]

HAHAHA competing against The Pong?!?! Mindseye aint got a chance

[meager thistle]

Gotta setup the XBOX so I can play some Skate 1/2/3 soon since I don't own a PS3 anymore lol

It'd probably be fun to beat the games single-player at the very least.

It shouldn't expire mine sat there forever

[scenic gull]

I know if i got invited i wouldn’t miss it

Wouldn’t let that happen to me thooo

[meager thistle]

Idk tbh I'd ask one of the higher ups in this discord about it?

because like I said I didn't even know I had the email until i searched for it and found it recently

[worldly sluice]

I asked about it in the forums and no one replied

[meager thistle]

Oh lol damn do they have a ticket support section or someshi

[mighty badge]

no ticket in discord

[meager thistle]

Damn well just hold on a little bit I guess the admin dude earlier was saying they have a release date internally scheduled so they must be making good progress towards "Early Access"

Early Access I assume will allow everyone to play, For free.

[mighty badge]

Yeah I hope I get into the june playtest

[scenic gull]

Me 2

[worldly sluice]

I'm waiting fot the end of june too i wanna play NOW ykj

[mighty badge]

yeah hopefully

[muted ether]

taps the nda sign

[torpid torrent]

Idky but I wanna smith a pool table on skate

[meager thistle]

anyways I was just trying to give them some hope

[modern radish]

Idk if it was just the video I saw, or what, does coach frank have custom lines when he bails?

[scenic gull]

Yes

[modern radish]

Any other skaters?

[balmy viper]

yoooo

[torpid torrent]

Team graffiti would be dope

[meager thistle]

That was such a classic.

Skate 1 still holds up today as a great IMO.

[scenic gull]

Skate 1 > skate it > skate 3 >>>>>>> skate on the mobile phone >>>>> skate 2

[modern radish]

Skate was on the phone?

[meager thistle]

Lol I thought Skate 2 was great also ngl. Im a huge Skate fan

[muted ether]

skate 2 at the bottom is absolutely criminal

[meager thistle]

Skate 2 absolutely ripped man..

Spot Battle Skate 2... LAWD take me back

Def playing through all 3 story modes soon

[worldly sluice]

I've always loved skate 3 and I was devistated when it didn't come to ps4 I was playin it on ps3 but I almost cried when I didn't see it

[meager thistle]

that's real.

[worldly sluice]

So I went to my friends house all the time cause he had an Xbox and we played it all the time skate 3 the best imo

[wraith snow]

Not a day goes by where I don’t miss skate 2 fr fr

[wraith snow]

Yuh

[hollow hazel]

I still have a copy of all 3 lol

I tried playing skate 2 earlier this year, but it had been like 5 years since playing a skate game and had played a lot of session in the meantime, skate 2 was so hard to get back into

[loud thicket]

damnnnn I think 2 is better than 3 and maybe 1

[hollow hazel]

The chronological order is the best order

Even without walking, OG skate is still the goat

Skate 2 was an absolute banger

Skate 3 exists

[loud thicket]

yea I think I like 2 more cuz calling big black to fight security guards was so funny and I enjoy the map more than the other 2

[hollow hazel]

My biggest gripe w skate 2 is the flare pants

[scenic gull]

Haha in all seriousness my ranking is 1>2>3

1 tops 2 for me only because the downhill speed wobbles and powerslides were better , very interesting that slowing got worse in 2 then 3

And the pants are the best in 1

[hollow hazel]

Man the whole San Fran area in skate 1 was so good

true

[scenic gull]

The bell bottoms are funny in 2

[hollow hazel]

The schoolyard was dope too it was absolutely perfect layout, I cannot emphasise enough my love for bump to bars and picnic tables

[loud thicket]

frl I hope we get a variation of that on the new map in skate

[hollow hazel]

That’s why I think it’s actually awesome skate. is gonna have an evolving map, one of their vids on YouTube they talk about the downtown district, so I’m just imagining what other districts we could get in the future

I’m so burnt out from session making me pay for maps, I didn’t even like Prague I just wanted the clothes lol

[wraith snow]

Never got a skate 2 copy for my ps3, I’m trying to find someone in Europe selling it 🥲

[scenic gull]

If there is no Elementary School remake type Map in Skate. i will flip that table

[wraith snow]

What if u build it to ur liking in a park creator tho? 😏

[scenic gull]

Oh wow , i would love to remake my high school and share it. Used to love skating there but i wasnt good enough, but in skate. i am (;

[hollow hazel]

I would personally like some Anthony Van Engelen benches

[hollow hazel]

lol I got scars on my gut from jumping a barbed wire fence running from the cops skating a school, worst part is they caught me anyway lmao

I took my shoes off so I could climb easier and the first thing the cop said when he stopped me was “why are you wearing socks”

[scenic gull]

Hahahha im sorry but i laughed so hard at the thought of a cop busting you and being like

Damn brodie you walk around in socks

[worn sigil]

Hell of a party story

[hollow hazel]

Sponsored by knee high toe socks

[scenic gull]

Xxx

[scenic gull]

[wraith snow]

[hollow hazel]

[waxen apex]

Agreed

[foggy pagoda]

Skate baby bring back miracle whip as a sponsor

[river gyro]

New pics and details came out for resident evil 9 I’m hyped

[rough current]

yeah bro im hyped as hell too, maybe since RE9 is coming out ill finally be able to gather the energy to finish village, i thought it was great but never got around to actually beating the damn game haha

[unreal viper]

i love the direction they went with FP with 7 and Village, also the 3/4 remake were fire too

[rough current]

honestly yeah completely agree, grew up with the series, started getting really bored with it playing 5 and 6 but first person really breathed new life into the franchise

its just tough tryna finish a game the past couple years with work and like 12 unfinished creative projects haha

although maybe this is my year, recently came into a semi decent amount of money and quit my job to try to start making my own games, hell of alot more free time now and i can technically play games and say it work releated, technically its now just market research hahaha

you think if i get my business up and running fully i can write any game purchases off on my taxes? hahahaha

[bright rampart]

Anyone else locked out of the EA forums? Can't seem to sign in today and keep getting redirected back to sign in after entering my info.

[modern radish]

Just killed every hall of meat,

[modern radish]

Progress is going good, I’m trying to 100% the game

Though, I do still regret resetting my previous save they had more than 1,000,000 board sells

[modern radish]

Pool tricks own the lot is kicking my butt, I can’t seem to do a 720 and also do a hand plant on the roof

[vale anchor]

For the roof handplant, don't Ollie when going up. Press and hold RB after you pass up the pool lip so it grabs the roof.

[woven pebble]

Yeah, that one is tough

[modern radish]

Got it, thanks! I’ll try it soon

[sudden warren]

Hi my lovely people

[modern radish]

Sup, how’s it going?

[sudden warren]

Not bad! Working the day away

[vale anchor]

Same.
Today I get to re-add features of code I stripped out trying to simplify it making it easier and less complicated for the user, to learn that those features are now actually wanted and will be used. So now I've got to dig through my previous saved files to find the one that was working in the past... Which should be easy except I never actually finished implementing them before ripping it out so I'm looking for the version that was the closest to working to make it work

[warm nest]

Oh Skate.. when will answers my prayers 🫩

[unreal viper]

we close

[radiant latch]

Sign up bro

[sudden warren]

Sounds pretty on par for user requested stuff. We made our consultants do similar stuff.

Or whatever we said we don't need, the business would later say "oh no we need that"

[vale anchor]

If I was smart I would have just made it work, left it in and hid it so it was "future proof" but I thought it would make everything easier to go the simpler route. Meaning I doubled my work load lol

[warm nest]

Have since the first announcement

[sudden warren]

Thats fair. But hindsight 20 20 and all that

[rough current]

hindsight is a coders biggest enemy fr

@vale anchor weve all been there bro, in my experience removing code to simplify it almost always adds to your workload rather than taking away, dont beat yourself up haha

the worst thing a coder can say is "i can make this simpler"

usually leads to overworking yourself hahaha

[zealous sinew]

It is near

[vale anchor]

One day I'll be smart lol

[torpid torrent]

Open testing would be dope before release for those who never got selected for beta

[torpid torrent]

You’re smart, you’re part of mandalor

[modern radish]

When I graduate this year, I’m gonna quote Coach Frank saying “Set up in the blue, flick in the yellow, g g yeah!”

[dull pilot]

there is no beta.

and we've stated everyone who signs up as a skate. Insider will be invited in the next round of waves.

[torpid torrent]

Playtest* hopefully, I signed up on like 4 different emails 💀

[tiny prism]

I don't think that's allowed

Also
If true I can't wait to play this month lol

[mental pewter]

Did the next playtest start? I’m js wondering if I didn’t get accepted or if it just didn’t start yet.

[cerulean tiger]

huh

[stuck hearth]

i think so

[kind turtle]

The invites are at the end of June

[tiny prism]

Nope, you'll know when it does, this place will explode

[tiny prism]

Just sometime this month, we don't know when

[kind turtle]

It says so on the Grind Vol.2

Well it says late June specifically but essentially the same thing

[scenic gull]

Woahhh so end of june wave is THE wave were everyone signed up gets an invite??

[worldly sluice]

hopefully this week or the next, but realistically it probably gonna be last week of june

[tiny prism]

Meh we'd be getting into pedantics it's not worth it lol

[raven imp]

yesn’t

[fervent sorrel]

Pretty sure thats when the first invites start to go out, and then over x time everyone will "slowly" get in

[tiny prism]

That's not how I've ever seen it worded and I've seen Jeff mention it a few times.

[azure obsidian]

im pretty sure thats how it works, otherwise too many people would try to join at once stressing servers, i think thats what they did last wave was over a 24hr period they sent out invites

[vale anchor]

I don't remember them saying about a time frame rollout past or future

[balmy viper]

lowkey i just miss playing a skate game with my friends, im just hyped that this could be soon

[vale anchor]

[tiny prism]

Lmao

It's cringe but I guess at least he didn't spam every channel
Still instantly makes me not want to ever interact tho

[vale anchor]

I had to read that a couple of times before it made sense

[tiny prism]

Ah
There was an advertiser

[azure obsidian]

thats this week so no

[neat karma]

Zamn

[gleaming peak]

hi

[dull pilot]

Friday is this week. If I meant Friday, I would say "In 2 days" or "before this weekend".
Next week is... next week. (early part of the week)

[neat karma]

I start my weeks on Thursday
Case closed

[worldly sluice]

early nxt week, now im more excited

[gleaming peak]

Wow ! its that soon?!

[dull pilot]

Yep. And I'm starting work on Vol 4.

[waxen apex]

Hello

[neat karma]

Could there be a proper trailer next week?

[worldly sluice]

Theirs gonna be Vol. 4 before the early access? now that im thinking about it it makes since because we got a while till then

[gleaming peak]

I'm beyond hyped

[dull pilot]

The Grind doesn't stop when Early Access drops.
It will evolve, but The Grind will still be a part of our world.

[worldly sluice]

okay bet

[tiny prism]

Ok but when do you set up an rss feed for my old ass

Feel like lots of people here won't know what that is nowadays kek

[scenic gull]

My birthday's coming up in two weeks; I turn 20 years old, I can already feel my back, neck, and clavicle pain

[dull pilot]

How about I just message you directly on AOL Instant Messenger and you can hit me back on ICQ, nerd?

lol

[raven imp]

you mean Vol.

[tiny prism]

I'll hit you up over BBS in a little bit to set all that up

[dull pilot]

Let me boot up my ArpaNET console and we're in business.

[tiny prism]

Dang it Jeff I was gonna use arpa

I've been wanting to set up a sort of modern rss feed so I can actually have control over my news feed

I don't want to set up my own scrapers tho lol

[snow sluice]

[unreal finch]

klmnopqrstuvwxyz, now i know my abcs next time wont you sing with me!

[scenic gull]

Holy shirataki noodles!!!!

[river gyro]

Volume 4 mentioned is that a black sabbath reference jk

[hollow hazel]

🫨

[scenic gull]

Ah jeff answered. June starts the ball rolling. And eventually everyone will be invited before early access

We will find out exact details early next week

[river gyro]

I mean it’s probs gonna be June July and aug cos it said in waves I doubt they’re all gonna be in June but starting in…. Nvm

Lmao

[hollow hazel]

Ah I’d been wondering if that’s how they’d do it, cause imagine early access day 1 how many people will be skating

[hollow hazel]

Either way that’s huge ! We getting there 🏃🏻‍♂️

[river gyro]

Yeah hopefully I’m a day one-er I doubt it watch i probs set the play test sign up - up wrong

[vale anchor]

No I mean the advertisement itself, the words didn't register meaning at first

[tiny prism]

Ah lmao

[scenic gull]

I hope i dont get invited ever after 3 years on the wait list, and my first day playing is the Early Access drop

Yeah , ik , im built different 😤

[river gyro]

Guess you can ignore the invite then Jeff sent it to their junk folder

[scenic gull]

If braddock had it his way, i wouldnt play until the V1.0 release 🤣

[river gyro]

Ahahahaha I’m sure Jeff isn’t that mean

[rough current]

we both got elite tastes in games what can i say haha (still kinda wild tho haha)

[dull pilot]

Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery

[wraith snow]

Austin powersss!!!

Never seen anything from that like franchise ig u can say? But I know some gifs and memes from it haha

Is it good? Goofy? Like what’s it overall about?

Also @dull pilot double/triple question

How are u?
And How’s Kuma?

[dull pilot]

It’s ridiculously dumb and funny.

I’m good, hope you’re well.
Kuma is a rascal, but he’s doing good.

[waxen apex]

I have the trilogy. It's amazing

[raven imp]

wait did Kuma heard about Rollin’ Rascal o0

[raven ore]

Has early access still not come out yet?

[raven imp]

nope

[raven ore]

Absolutely agony

[wraith snow]

Gotta check out some Austin powers then haha

Glad to hear ur good, I’m doing well! Got into photography classes while I look for TV/film companies to continue my film education, also so I get better at lighting scenes etc. so that’s dope!

And then we know Kuma haha

[raven ore]

Welp, time to buy an Xbox 360 for skate 3 xd

[raven imp]

fr it has better library

[wraith snow]

This month is where they’re inviting everyone who’s signed up to test as the last wave of invites before early access makes it fully public, so we’re getting close, and Jeff has mentioned they’ve got stuff coming to show us

So if ur not signed up, sign up now haha

[raven ore]

I've been signed up for ages,

[wraith snow]

Then u just gotta keep ur eyes open on the email u signed up with

Maybe go onto the ea testing website and update ur preferences just in case so u know ur profile is up to date when they send em out 🙌

[raven ore]

Aye bet thank you for the suggestion

[raven imp]

are you sure it’s this month ??

[wraith snow]

They said June with a the grind vol 3 dropping too, but I can double check?

[raven imp]

where

[raven imp]

?

[worldly sluice]

if you scroll up to around 2-3 this afternoon, Jeff says stuff about Vol. 3 and the test in chat

[dry shuttle]

Still no beta access

Crazy work out here lol

[worldly sluice]

if you scroll up to 1:02 pm in that chat Jeff says there's no beta

[dry shuttle]

Playtest*

[fading forum]

Prolly one of the greatest spoofs ever tbh

They lowkey need to make fun of the absurdity of spy movies more

[worldly sluice]

go threw the chat he says stuff about early next week, that Vol. 3 will be out and more invites

[raven imp]

nah im talking about this

This month is where they’re inviting everyone

[worldly sluice]

It is this month (next week)

You can search the server for messages from specific users

[wraith snow]

They said the wave would come June in the grind volume 2

Jeff has said here the grind volume 3 is coming this month if I’m not mistaken

[river gyro]

The power to kill a yack from 200 yards away

[worthy rune]

Kinda a flaw that u can see if any of ur Xbox friends are playing the play test? Shows as Dingo (EA) but in the happening now screen, shows as skate. pre alpha

[onyx matrix]

Is early access happening soon?

I been waiting to play this

[worldly sluice]

I'm guessing some time early next week with the Grind Vol. 3

[young pilot]

I hope no comply Ollie’s get put in

[worldly sluice]

This game is for the players I bet if you put in the ideas tab they would think about it yk

[young pilot]

Hey that ain’t a bad idea

[worldly sluice]

who knows it might be in the game already too

[young pilot]

Yeah man who knows

[worldly sluice]

just wait bro if you signed up (i am assuming you did) you'll most likely get invited next week

[young pilot]

Yeah man ive got pure fomo

[worldly sluice]

Same but i'm trusting Jeff when he says everyone is getting invited this wave

[hidden bronze]

Despite the late reply, I’m doing pretty good! The purple tag colour suits ya, which makes me realise I’ve certainly fallen down the leaderboard quite a few paces, makes me feel guilty for not popping in more often

Is that a halo killstreak?

[hidden bronze]

It’s always a joy to poke my head in if and when things’re active

[vale anchor]

It's when you win a match by over 25 kills over the enemy total or something like that. Basically means you stomped them before they could have a chance to make a comeback.
There was a steak emoji that was in here and meatman steaktacular was the first thing in my head

[radiant latch]

Release Window coming in Vol3 calling it now. If I am wrong I owe the whole chat PIZZA.

[abstract flame]

Something tells me The Grind Vol 3 will be delicious

[modern radish]

Im not much of a skater, how does wheelsize affect the board or like the feel of it?

[radiant latch]

Bigger wheels better for transitioning skating and it is more grippy than smaller wheels. Smaller skate wheels better for Street skating and flip tricks (alot of the time it's preferences based on the skater)

Diameter (Size): Measured in millimeters (mm)

50–54mm: Street skating, tricks, flip tricks

55–59mm: Park, transition, bowls

60mm+: Cruising, downhill, rough terrain

Durometer (Hardness): Measured on the A scale (e.g., 99A)

95A–101A: Harder wheels — good for smooth surfaces, technical tricks

78A–87A: Softer wheels — good for cruising, rough pavement

[vale anchor]

To add to that, on a reg skate setup, the larger the wheel, the more likely you'll have wheelbite so some risers might be needed depending on how tall your trucks are

[radiant latch]

You can buy some riser pads to help with that if you would like.

[scenic gull]

running RIOT

[final tinsel]

The next wave is next week?

[scenic gull]

Supposedly Q and A next week but next wave anytime from next week til end of month. But def before July

[final tinsel]

Got ya thanks, been waiting forever

[scenic gull]

Same here fr fr. I bet we will one day find out that they restarted development back in 2022 lol

But anyhow it wont matter as we are so close to the finish line

[loud thicket]

why u say that ?

[scenic gull]

I am just h yapping because the very first playtest recap was in late 2022 and it looked so good!!

And so why in the world are we here 3 years later…. But i say im just yapping because the simple answer is, that’s just game development

[worldly sluice]

Thats what Jeffy said

[modern radish]

Praying next week is where everyone gets it

[scenic gull]

Same here we deserve this

[tiny prism]

This did not happen.

I agree, I got skate 3 in 2011 when I was 5 and loved it. Been waiting 13 years now for a new game

No, I didn’t say playtest wave was next week. Lol just hang tight for The Grind: Vol 3 - next week - for more info.

You are a pro at navigating the constant pretest questions. You’re beyond clear with your words. I don’t envy you, but much respect for how clear and diplomatic you are with the words you choose.

[dull pilot]

For me, it’s critical to be accurate.
I never want to incorrectly set expectations.

Appreciate the kind words, bud. I try every day to do my best.

[raven imp]

is it real info or fake news ?

This month is where they’re inviting everyone […]

[dull pilot]

Yeah, we mentioned that in The Grind: Vol 2

Reminder, our next big push of Playtesting invites will happen in late June, so keep an eye on your email inbox.

Retire on the beach making tacos and BBQ sammies for folks.
Maybe have a pop-up adult beverage spot with frozen margaritas, guacamole and chips, and tequila shots.

[tiny prism]

Ok but when is ea hosting a skate promotional event where you get to do that tho

BBQ and bonelesses

BBQ and boardslides*

[unique nebula]

For real, promo tour that and I'm in.

[final tinsel]

https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTjGuLLR5/

Is this skate that this dude is live streaming?

[unreal viper]

thats a parkour game

[tiny prism]

Also probably not the best idea to share potential leaked footage inside the official discord server

[split sluice]

waddup gamers

[unique nebula]

What up Creed

[split sluice]

creed-tastic

[buoyant elk]

Welp skate it now getting popular

[scenic gull]

Skate. is now getting popular

Or Skate It is now getting popular

That is wild to think about that people would unironically enjoy Skate It

[unreal viper]

i had it and enjoyed it when it first came out lol

[scenic gull]

I only had xbox so i had skate 2 instead and it was prob the greatest sports title i ever played

[dull pilot]

maybe use the correct name?
it's not Skate 4. that's why your comment was automodded.

[lament bobcat]

Ah

So i found out i could playtest the Skate. But the thing was in march and i didnt see the email until now

[unreal finch]

Pretty sure thats Rooftops & Alleys

[lament bobcat]

Oh i guess you were right

[dull pilot]

and don't fret if you didn't get in yet.

we're inviting everyone who has signed up as a skate. Insider for the biggest invite wave in the history of the game (and I think EA.)

[rough current]

bro thats so rough, i actually feel for you

(replied to your other message by mistake)

[lament bobcat]

Yea i re signed up just in case

[unreal finch]

EA as a whole? Thats shocking, cant wait

[lament bobcat]

atleast i can play skate 3 while waiting

[unreal finch]

Play 2 and 1 as well

Play all three at the same time, thatd be really cool

[wary plaza]

Something will be sent through email ?

When it’s live ?

[modern radish]

Sorry if it was said it or not, was the date announced?

[dull pilot]

No, we’ll have all the deets next week with The Grind: Vol 3.

[modern radish]

Ah, got it, thanks!

[wary plaza]

Starting Monday right?

[dull pilot]

[languid sky]

[scenic gull]

I am prept

[rough current]

shhhhh, thats a tos violation, dont self snitch bro

[tiny prism]

That's pretty much all they do, lightly fib
Wish they wouldn't mislead newer users as much as they do though :/ the blue name makes them seem more believable to a lot of people

[neat karma]

If I said in this server "skate. will end up releasing sooner than stated just wait and see" will i get kicked out? (Happened to me in the rockstar games server...)

[scenic gull]

What?

[scenic gull]

Ima get in this wave don’t worry 😉

[scenic gull]

Lol you got kicked ? Why

[neat karma]

what i said

i just dont believe may 26th is the real date for gta 6

[scenic gull]

You right. It is April.
..

2027

[rough current]

bro i said "dont let kanye cook" in the rockstar discord and caught a few days on the naughty step for it

i feel your pain haha

[neat karma]

oh well hate that server anyways

[scenic gull]

I miss the kanye that made donda 1

[neat karma]

same kanye different tactics

[scenic gull]

But after hearing this Bully ai album. Im good. Yall can keep new Kanye

[neat karma]

I hate when he starts murmering

Its the new meta nowdays to just release slop

[scenic gull]

Yeah, look at mindseye

[wraith snow]

Dont get me started on that game…

[scenic gull]

Did you buy?? Or just watched stream

[waxen apex]

Hey Luna how's MindsEye

[stuck rover]

Yo

[raven imp]

playtest

[stuck rover]

I broke my keyboard so I randomly tried to plug in my ps3 to play skate 3 and it worked

[raven imp]

what’s the command to make it pop

[neat karma]

push p

[wraith snow]

I was interested In the game from first trailer, then just saw it go downhill with bad work space being exposed, overworked devs, CEO treating people badly and calling critical people paid off and it’s just- so sad 😭

Cause devs said in an interview with their voice altered that mechanics they spent months on would just get deleted cause the CEO changed his mind last second on them etc etc

Glad to know full circle is the opposite and got awards for their good work space etc. 😭

[stuck rover]

So ig im back to play skate, very glad after no idea how many year people still play skate 3

[scenic gull]

I joined the EVERYWHERE server back in 2021 because well. Rockstar ceo. I left in 2024 cause years went by and nothing happened

I was SO shocked to see something dropped finally. But it looked like it has less devtime than saints row reboot lol

So glad i stopped following last year. Saved me $60

[neat karma]

i doubt mindseye will end up becoming good the same way cyberpunk did

[rough current]

bro please dont remind me of the saints row reboot, i never seen any marketing for that game and bought it

one of the mistakes of all time for sure

[wraith snow]

It had 5 years in the making if not more, they shifted focus to Mindseye cause it got more hype a few years ago, so everywhere is kinda not being worked on atm

[scenic gull]

I dont just feel bad, i actually know that feeling. I bought the gta trilogy remake at full $60 😭 still stings to this day as i just simply went back to the original copies. Literally tore a 50 and 10 up you know

[stuck rover]

Saint row payday, franchise who died by releasing more game, I hope this doasent happen to stake

[scenic gull]

SO THATS WHAT HAPPENED i was sooo confused how way back in 2021 if was everywhere. Then last week something called mindseye dropped??

[rough current]

bro payday 2 was spectacular, the hype i had for payday 3 was unmatched, i havent matched that level of hype since, so scared to get burned again

[stuck rover]

Payday 2 was awesome used to play it a lot, but when the AWFUL payday 3 released, no one wanted to play the old version

Not to count the HORIBLE community managing that payday sis

[wraith snow]

Yup! Mindseye was supposed to be a game inside everywhere and then bc it got more hype they were like “UHH UHH IT WAS MINDSEYE ALL ALONG GUYS!!”

[rough current]

thankfully i payed gta san andreas remake on gamepass and just decided to pull the ps2 outta the closet instead about an hour into the game

[rough current]

people forget the greats real quick when something new pops up, i still go back to payday 2 atleast once a year

the soundtrack alone is amazing, the gameplay is even better

anytime someone asks for a game recommendation i tell em to buy the complete dlc collection and game on sale, its vary rarely above around 20 and you get hundreds of hours of top tier fun

[scenic gull]

The remake was sooo gross i pulled out my ps2 to experience vice city as it was meant to be. Had so much fun i beat the story

[stuck rover]

Payday is a pain to get in an out thos, gotta relearn everything

[scenic gull]

Yes!! Back in 2021,
The goal was a modular game called everywhere. And one lil branch was supposed to be a linear storymode that had a realistic artstyle.

Then a no mans sky like game

Then a build your own world builder

So that is wild. Now i feel validated for leaving that community last year

[rough current]

nah not for me man, as soon as the Swedish techno kicks in, i immedietly get right in the zone

that game has straight up psychologically conditioned me into a worldclass bank robber when techno comes on to the point i could probably pull it off irl hahaha

its wierd too, i absolutely hate techno/edm and things like that , but the payday soundtrack just wierdly works soooooo well for the genre

[lament bobcat]

ill try

[wraith snow]

Gotta love Swedish techno

[rough current]

specifically swedish techno bank robbing games, payday 2 is a very oddly brilliant game

[wraith snow]

Payday is Swedish?

[rough current]

nah not the game, the music, well the music isnt actually swedish techno, i just think its funny to claim it is because it slightly annoys music people

unimportant and unoffensive misinformation is funny

[wraith snow]

I gotta get on this fr fr

[rough current]

casually lying about the must pointless things will never not be funny

completely not affecting someones life but just a random moment in their life later down the line when they find out youre "wrong" about something super dumb

its peak

[raven imp]

peak, the character in aot ?

[scenic gull]

Or idk what that was about

[lament bobcat]

really i need a code though to play

[rocky hearth]

So there is a GTA server that has skateboards kinda cool

[scenic gull]

Id love to see rockstar make thrasher 2

[rocky hearth]

I love to just skate around the GTA map so many good spots

Even when I was on a BMX I was still looking I mean they have a skatepark lol

Hopefully in GTA 6

[scenic gull]

I used to only bmx in TH American Wasteland but then only Skate in rockstar’s Bully

I do what i want

[rocky hearth]

Hell yeah dude American wasteland was fun lol

I watched some GTA rp server where this guy did a 360flip on some gap the cop was like I was gonna arrest you but that was cool

[dull pilot]

Reminder:

Discussing contents of playtesting emails is not allowed.

[rocky hearth]

Huh lol

[stuck rover]

15 years later I still can’t hit flips consistently

Every time I try to flip I end just just anwarlding grabbing my board without anything happening

[rocky hearth]

Dude I watched someone that did them so easy and I tried his way and nope 😂

[gaunt tapir]

lol was just searching about carbolic and milkybarkidd use to play with both well met carbolic from blink but damn zexel he just disappeared bit of weird guy though when was in voice channel in his discord with him, remember playing in warmup game of skate for blinks batb with blink, nightspeeds, markus

[stuck rover]

Same, no matter how much tutorial I watch I just don’t get

While in hair, press r2/L2 and move the left joystick

Nothing ever happen

[rocky hearth]

I will say though his foot position helped

Try putting your back foot the toe hanging off a bit

Trying to remember this guy's video though it actually kinda helped lol

One of these days though

[scenic gull]

Omg people modded in skating?

Ima check this out

[sudden warren]

yea it has been cool to see

[scenic gull]

Lol that 360 flip with the cop video

[stuck rover]

Why do flips just not work 90% of the time

It just end me grabbing my board and it doasent let me flip

[vale anchor]

Try double pushing up on the stick. Hold the stick in that position as you rotate

[stuck rover]

Thanks it work better but sometime the jump just refuse to be able to be turned into a flip? Is their a way to line reset that to do a flip mid jump

[wicked flare]

Does anyone know when the next play test is and how to get in

[vale anchor]

You'll get used to the timing after a little while. It'll just click and won't be a second thought

[stuck rover]

It’s been like 12 years and I still haven’t mastered it 😭

[vale anchor]

They said sometime later this month. Go here to sign up #1214598970370957374

[trail warren]

Hey sky

[scenic gull]

Try asking the forums and not a public place outside of the play test

You're generally not allowed to discuss anything within the playtest—outside

[ashen tide]

Posted on the forum now, didn't really want to ask anything here due to the NDA but I didn't know who else to speak to, hopefully there's a fix for the issue😅

[turbid ledge]

hello

[scenic gull]

Ayy ganley

Oh. Bye

[tiny prism]

Telling us you're in the playtest does break nda, just so you know

[raven imp]

if my ea acc is link to an old email acc i don’t got access from, i have to sign up with another ea acc ?

or can i unlink my acc somehow

[ashen tide]

Well hopefully I don't get banned now

[tiny prism]

I mean
All you have to do is delete the messages
Would have been my first move

But if you wanna stick it out ye

[neon owl]

I was in that batb too. Think I was rekt by some varial flips. lol.

[meager thistle]

gamers

[modern radish]

I feel like mapping out all the skate flip tricks into pixel art for no reason

[waxen apex]

Hey Toasty. How you been?

[vale anchor]

[turbid ledge]

Hello

Im looking into skate is it a sim or should i look at other games im looking for the most realistic skate game

im new here

[dull pilot]

THPS is arcadey fun
Skate franchise is more sim-cade. More realistic, but not full sim.
Session is full sim.

[turbid ledge]

ok thanks

im looking for a full grounded take on skateboarding

I prefer steeze over style

[dull pilot]

I mean, you’re in the Creature Studio Discord (which is Session), so you found it there.

[woven pebble]

I thought about getting session, but I can’t get past not being able to do grab tricks.

[dull pilot]

That being said, you can play the Skate franchise realistically, plenty of creators have made their whole content portfolio about realistic Skate gameplay.

[balmy viper]

i love doing the tricks i know in real life like a tripple backflip 🗣️🗣️

[last bloom]

first of all that is nda second try go to the forum again

[glacial horizon]

i mean thats the problem, im trying to get into the forum since 2 weeks every now and then but othing changed. And i cant ask here. So i cant do anything i guess?

[gleaming seal]

on my xbox why does my main account never connect to the online server but my other account does

[unreal finch]

Are you on an actual xbox 360?

[gleaming seal]

nope

[unreal finch]

Thats odd, is it xbox live or eas servers youre having issues with?

[gleaming seal]

ea's. i can connect to the xbox 360 servers fine

[dull pilot]

try removing the affected Gamertag from the console then re-add it, then re-launch the game

[cobalt dust]

[gleaming seal]

im lwk stupid 😓
how do you do that?

[sweet vale]

Hello everyone, do you think the game will come out this year?

[worldly sluice]

yes

[sweet vale]

Oh nice, What month do you think it will be released ?

[vital kernel]

Coach Frank says:

RE: Playtesting Discussion in this Server

you cannot, in any way, discuss details of being in the Playtesting program, receiving emails/invites, your status in the Playtesting program, details about the playtest build or activities as you agreed to the Playtesting Pre-Release Confidentiality Agreement (NDA) when you signed up as a skate. Insider/EA Playtester.

per the agreement, until the NDA is lifted, you may only state "I signed up."

this is not a playtest support server, and we cannot share details on current or upcoming Playtests outside of what we have shared in the #announcements #game-announcements or #1214598970370957374 sections.

all needed information will be sent to invited playtesters via email prior to or as their testing wave starts.

your fellow community members are trying to remind you of this to avoid infractions that could result in the Moderation team giving you a warning, timeout or mute, or even remove you from the server (as it is called out in the #rules - and we don't want that to happen to anyone.)

[worldly sluice]

early access is supposed to come late this year

[woven pebble]

Sometime before January

[gaunt tapir]

Yeah i remember watching it all lmao, nightspeeds did same to me in the warmup he kept setting every varial flips variation didnt use to be able to do them lol

[worn linden]

man i can't wait for the new skate game to drop i spent money on session and the missions don't even work it wants me to grind a ledge thats it but it won't say i completed it did the devs test the game UGHHHH

ill just farm achievements

i feel scammed

[modern radish]

Is it the one where you meet up with that skeleton guy

[worn linden]

no it just says to grind whole ledge without stopping and theres two ledges i tried grinding both but it still wont work i quit the game already

i didn't get an achievements for completing ribs mans missions im guessing its a bug

[woven pebble]

Thanks for sharing this. I almost pulled the trigger on session, but I didn’t like not being able to do grab tricks. It’s essential to me.

[worn linden]

Its mission 6

[modern radish]

Session is a good game… if you ignore the flaws

Such flaw being not having a good goofy

I wanna buy a VX1000 but I just don’t got the money for it

I do hope there will be an option for the low follow cams

[worn linden]

good news it counted the trick finally

[modern radish]

Nice

[worn linden]

i completed the mission now it wont let me get xp did it just hard lock me

yes it did

[scenic gull]

How come is says youre not a member?

[tiny prism]

They're not, they left

[woven pebble]

I hope turnstile is in the new skate release. As an old timer, this band proves to me rock isn’t dead .

[scenic gull]

Ik ganley from sim skating. They probably trolling coming here for sim the. Just leaving lol

[wraith snow]

Every mission in session works, sometimes u just gotta change up the grind ur doing etc etc. I’ve completed the entire game story or campaign or whatever u call it

[empty coyote]

did they reveal anything new? i knew it was coming 2025, but not that they specified "late"

[woven pebble]

Check back next week

[tiny prism]

#1365004983212179578

[empty coyote]

i've read all of that. where does it say anything other than early access 2025? because the guy said "late" 2025 and i was wondering where he got that information.

[tiny prism]

It doesnt
That's just where you should be checking for information
And don't believe everything you see on the internet

We don't know when
We just know 2025

[empty coyote]

yeah, that's why i asked him. people be spreading misinformation all over the place

believe me i'm on top of all the official info

[meager thistle]

Early Access 2025 amirite

[scenic gull]

Regean does know the sauce. Late 2025 (;

Ill see you there day 1 pronto

[empty coyote]

Until official word that is misinfo

[scenic gull]

But its reagan. Surely they know the sauce

[hollow hazel]

Ronald ?

[scenic gull]

If ronald ragan is in the chat saying late 2025. Then that is it you know

Lol fr tho, it will release soon enough. I can’t wait for it so the topic can finally change

[woven pebble]

The horse’s mouth. Have some patience. You must have other things to do with your time.

[final tinsel]

It seems like there’s a few months in between each wave, with this one being the last wave a few months will be the end of the year

[woven pebble]

The last play test was in march. Simple math.

[thorn sage]

does anyone know if skate. will be on the switch 2?

[final tinsel]

Can someone send where it says that everyone will be accepted this month?

[empty coyote]

i have patience, just not for misinformation. where did you get the idea i was impatient? i was just annoyed by the statement "late 2025" when the official info just says 2025. speculating is just speculation, no need to convey it as fact

[empty coyote]

if the time between last pt and next(final) pt is the same between final pt and early access, that would make early access late september. in no state of mind would i call that late 2025 or end of the year lol

[hollow hazel]

Yeah I can’t wait for the misinfo and doomsaying to end 🙏🏼

[woven pebble]

Because 2025 is coming to an end. Why bring it up if you’re aware of this apparent fact?

[empty coyote]

it's not though

latter half of 2025 is not the same as late 2025

[woven pebble]

It is though. You’re aware it’s mid June. Simple math.

[empty coyote]

halfway through the year and you say "it's coming to an end" lol

as we all know, new years is in july

[woven pebble]

lol I wish I was that young.

[empty coyote]

bruh

[woven pebble]

Is half a year a lifetime to you?

[empty coyote]

no? half a year goes by fast, but i wouldn't say the year is coming to an end until november at the earliest, lol

[woven pebble]

Exactly, half a year goes by really fast. Find something else to do with your time if it’s eating you up that much. Take a deep breath. It’s coming. Be rest assured.

[scenic gull]

Right?? And no more , “if i bribe braddock with a $20 can i please be invited ((; “

[empty coyote]

bruh, i'm not the one being impatient, i'm just arguing semantics because i don't want people to be misinformed.

[woven pebble]

My bad. The good news is skate is coming out this year.

[scenic gull]

I keep seeing September being mentioned, a lot of but i better chill or baggy will Pop me x)

[empty coyote]

that's all hearsay lol. people should stick to official channels for info. i've even stopped using instagram lately because of rumours being posted as news

it's really crazy. i miss internet when it was just newgrounds and flash games

[hollow hazel]

Instagram algorithm is awful, it recognises I like skating and bmx stuff so it thinks “oh you’ll probably like scooters too right ?”

[scenic gull]

Wow you remember newgroynds? Haven’t seen that get mentioned since 2009. I loved Pico

[empty coyote]

i specifically stay away from bmx posts for this reason lol!

[scenic gull]

What you trynna say about the scoots??

[hollow hazel]

2 wheels and handlebar = same thing apparently

[hollow hazel]

I’m not a fan lol, parks are always full of them, and I just don’t think it looks cool, it’s the whole standing like you’re at a reception desk

I respect rollerbladers tho, I think that says a lot about how open minded I can be lmao

[empty coyote]

if they scoot like i skate, then they are cool. if they just roll around in circles they are dumb babies who need to get out of the way

[hollow hazel]

Don’t get me wrong if they have park etiquette I’m not a hater and those who do gnarly tricks are talented and skilled, I just don’t think it looks stylish that’s all

Like 2 skaters, bmx riders, rollerbladers can do the same trick but both have completely different styles and I just haven’t seen anything look super steezy on a scoot

[scenic gull]

There was this rollerblading game i loved called On A Roll! But the dev took our E.A money and skated off 🙄

[hollow hazel]

Man that would’ve been cool, I wish I knew game dev and had infinite money I’d make so many games

I legit want a chill marine biology game where you just scuba and discover stuff, no sea monsters or depressing storyline just ooo fishies

[rough current]

imma be real with you, to get into game dev all you need is a halfway decent PC and youtube tutorials

i went to uni for game dev and learned more in 2 years of youtube than 4 years of classes

to be honest depending on how detailed you want the game to be you could skate by with a really cheap laptop

i started off my journey by taking existing levels from other games and recreating them with my own twist following tutorials along the way until i no longer needed the tutorials and the levels looked nothing like their original design

the hardest step on the journey of making games is believing enough in yourself to start

[scenic gull]

Mow that you have the degree, what are you up to, do you work at a studio?

[scenic gull]

Bro I’d play this. I’d want to search the Arctic sea

[rough current]

worked at a bank for a few years basically ignoring my degrees existence, in the past year i came into some money and decided enough was enough

left the soulless 9-5, been making my own game ever since

i dont wanna work for a studio, my plan is to start my own, the modern games industry is built on greed and exploitation of the devs and fans...i want no part in that aspect of it, im here to make games not money ya know?

i got a roof over my head and food in my belly, just thought it was time to make something i enjoy and hopefully atleast someone else does too

[meager thistle]

He studied game development in university but learned far more from YouTube tutorials. You only need a decent PC and dedication to get started. He began by recreating game levels with his own twist, eventually becoming independent of tutorials. After working a 9–5 bank job and ignoring his degree, he came into some money, quit his job, and committed to developing his own game. He doesn’t want to work for a studio or be part of the exploitative games industry — his goal is to make games for the passion, not the profit.

summarized W AI

[rough current]

w summary haha

AI really do be making my yapping look pointless haha

[scenic gull]

If you feel comfortable sharing, what is the genre?

There is this solo dev from nyc i follow. He dropped a game on Nintendo switch exclusively. Then, use those funds to start a skateboarding game either a linear story. So far looks good, i do think they ended up getting picked up by Devolver. But it’s devolver

[hollow hazel]

That is cool man, thanks for the info, I’m super tech illiterate tho so I’d probably somehow end up making a spreadsheet instead

Dope you’re following your dreams though that’s awesome to hear 🔥

[rough current]

best way i can describe it is schizo posting on main

its an action adventure rougelite game, basically the main character is just slowly losing their mind and the player is just experiencing their thoughts and battles with psychosis in a more hands on way than what it is actually like for people IRL

think trippy visuals, creepy atmosphere and levels changing and evolving as you are currently playing them

[hollow hazel]

Hell yeah lemme find those octopus and giant crabs

[scenic gull]

That sounds awesome! Best of lick with your project

[scenic gull]

The ocean trips me out. Sunfish are the size of a cow

[rough current]

id say the most begginer friendly engine to look at would be GODOT, youd honestly surprise yourself alot by just giving yourself a couple hours to follow along with a tutorial

probably the simplest to learn how to code (in my opinion) tons of tutorials on how to get started

anyways, food for thought, the games industry needs new blood, were all capable of being that

[rough current]

much appreciated bro, its still a long way off being done and will probably change a ton by then but thanks

[hollow hazel]

Bro wth I was just looking at a sunfish meme on insta 🧠 ⚡️ 🧠

They’ve evolved to be absolutely useless for nutritional value by only eating jellyfish so predators don’t even really bother with them and even when they do the sunfish are just like “oh man” because they essentially just float

[scenic gull]

Lmao do they just be floating

[tardy sphinx]

Anyone wanna do some free skate?

[worldly sluice]

i swear i read that jeff said it was late this year idk but

[hollow hazel]

Nah I guarantee he wouldn’t have said that

[tiny prism]

he mighta

you could ask him that dude stays up til 1am regularly he's an animal

[hollow hazel]

Maybe “later this year” but I don’t believe Jeff has ever said a timeframe for when early access drops

[dull pilot]

Correct.

The Grind: Vol 3 next week. Just hang tight.

[hollow hazel]

El jefe himself 😎

[steady kelp]

I’m waiting for the grind volume three 😭

[tiny prism]

im waiting as fast as i can

[steady kelp]

I’m so impatient ughhh

[worn linden]

@steady kelp me too buddy

how many more weeks

[steady kelp]

They said the guns comes next week and people are saying the invites might come tjen

[lament bobcat]

yakl exited for the new playtest wave?

[river gyro]

I heard the grind is early next week praying Monday

[worn linden]

im playing skate 1 and boy is it nostalgic the pop height is high af lol i and the flick it controls are a lot trickier compared to the later titles

trying to do a 360 flip hippy flip but always end up doing a inward heelflip

and i feel like theres a tiny amount of grind assist just a small amount

compared to games like session it still feels fresh 16 years later

[rigid slate]

Such a good game love going back to 1 & 2

[worn linden]

Sunday funday

[modern radish]

I keep forgetting that i need to check my email to see if i ever get in bc aint no one breaking NDA to tell me

[meager thistle]

You should of received an invite in March I don't think they were sent at other times yet.

[modern radish]

Oh, i thought by waves they mean like over time, like a constant flow of new people

[meager thistle]

From what I've gathered this week it sounds like the playtest was meant to run from March until "Early Access" and my understanding is that early Access will be free to play and accessible to all but I'm sure if I'm wrong I'll get corrected but thats my understanding.

The admin guy braddock said that there's an update coming in like 6 days that reveals more about the future the grind volume 3 I think it'll be called.

I don't think early Access is too far away & I think the playtest will end at that point

[modern radish]

oh, fair

[steady kelp]

I heard the new invite wave is around the time of the new update
