Also cool to do them with varials and hardflips/inward heels
It’s never too late! I’m 28, and if there’s one regret I don’t have, its learning how to skate!
But what if I am forced to wait longer than 5 minutes to get my dopamine? I would die...
Thanks for the info
Ive gotten time outs for calling out the Team for being slow on fixing the game ! yall are politicking hard af in here , more on the Skateteam and less bans going out XD this chat never fails to keep me entertained XD lmao
its because the only statement ive made is that i believe there is more than one gender. thats all zenoss has to work from, and theyd rather deny science
i just wish i could ask the mod why i got banned for 7 days for saying "Tony Hawk's Advanced Warf*ghter"
Bill nye the science guy, science rules!
yeah i miss him, horrible what happened to him a few years ago
its always been cool to me, just never had the confidence, feel like the older I get the more bold I become in trying that stuff 😂
boty varial with a nollie shove it, its like you float in the air
Can we all attempt to summon Jeff so we can get those patch notes. Here it goes.

was that supposed to be a burn
yeah, that you need to pay me or else
i just sent you like 10 dollars is that cool
This is the exact reason I unlinked my Spotify. I don’t need goofy goobers knowing my real name lmao
wait, we don't reproduce asexually? i thought my time to divide would come soon
I googled his name and nothing.
not the goofy goobers
search up bill nye balloon accident... really tragic stuff
Time To Divide
Would be a fire band name not gonna lie. I’d listen to them.
please dont ima refund that (im british and the exchange tariff will send me under)
still perfecting mitosis im afraid, we have another 2000 years of evolution to go though sadly,
Your gender gotta be asexual to do that. Only some humans can do it.
why are u bringing up politics goofy goober
yo, I need someone to complete the touchdowns
fairy's don't even have tails
I’m built diff I be engaging in the stages of Mitosis 24/7
omg, of course
if your struggling to understand the what does it means directed at the stupid paypal comment then theres no saving you 😂
hey same here i just always assume for the worst
in the beginning we were all fish , than one day we had Special fish baby , so it got to live. than that special fish went on to make more special babies , than one of those babies crawled out the ocean with its mutant hands, had butt secks with a squirrel or something, and made a special frog squirrel, AND than that thing had a baby with a monkey fish frog
Im still waiting for the payment
what’s everyone’s fav skate film
https://youtube.com/shorts/VzMPWwj1d7A Look at this Clip
He's just here trolling for reactions, ignore and it'll go back to its dungeon
they never tell you about the monkey fish frog 👆
i aint on no ones side 😂 but if someone says something stupid, theres no way thats sliding 😄
All thanks to Kanye
Then monkey fish frog designed wood plank in their image, and in their image they designed the skateboard and that’s how skating began
Fancy Lad's "Is This Skateboarding?"
kanye makes me feel like we're devolving
Minding The Gap
ive been saying this
Lords of dog town and mid90s
https://youtube.com/shorts/VzMPWwj1d7A
Guys this Clip took me 4 Hours
He's doing a terrible job tho 😂
Why has nobody said street dreams
Lego Frodo making money just by being on discord. I sent him 1k usd, now everyone wanna bandwagon
hey lars
yeah if it wasnt for him liking fishdicks we wouldnt have skate.
Lords of dog town is such a sick movie. One of my faves.
That’s a Deep cut, elite ball knowledge 🧠
send me 1k usd
thanks time to do research >:)
Hey @mental raven
Street dreams is so iconic it named a whole trick lol
i actually clicked ts
😂 my favorite skate video is... erm... only my favorite because its fun to watch tbh 😂
Will Spencer - Hollorado
infact will spencer is basically this skate game irl 😂
1k thats it? who you trynna be MrBroke? LMAO gotteeeem
Honestly for anyone that wants to learn about skating. Lords of Dogtown is THE movie to see
Do you think we’ll get a screaming hand shirt in the season pass?
your elitism is cruel
Oh so thattttts how Mtn Dew thought of Puppy Monkey Baby. They just looked back at our lineage.
yes , thanks to charles darwin , we now have mtn dew puppy monkey baby (What ever the hell that is)
anyone that could help? i tried pretty much everything
When does the update drop?
Is that the one with Heath Ledger? Pretty good movie.
tomorra probably on daily refresh
probably tomorrow about 6pm gmt time same as every other time tbh that fc do anything
check your drivers and delete any local files saved in appdata when uninstalling as well
Yup. I cry at about anything but the ending also made me cry.
Algum br para fazer as missões coop ?
Brr brr patapim
spent it all on sanvan bucks
Nice socks, man, nice socks
Invested money isn't spent! SVB is going to the moon baby diamond hands HODL
keep investing we might get a 40% return at the start of season 1 for all previously purchased svbucks
keep buying the bucks guys they just might be able to fix the game 😮
Vee turns herself off when you buy £79.99 of san van bucks, its a hidden easter egg
devs if u can hear me Skate soundtrack could use some Thundercat, Blood Orange, NERD, Dijon and more mkgee songs 🗣️
We need to set up a go fund me for coach frank to get his job back and remove vee 
is it possible to play on pc with no controller?
hoping so too, maybe it will for now ill just keep checking everthing lol
there's been an attempt
Okay people just gonna drop this once more here, to have fun together instead of arguing.
Just for fun: If it was skate-o-ween RIGHT NOW what would your character look like? I'll start. #skate-screenshots message
Wow
Thundercat would be so dope! Or something from Bad Bad Not Good!
Frank is my dad
did all of it, every type of file thing etc haha but all good tomorrow maybe fixed by the update
i hope for the best
for the low low price of 3500$ USD you can have vee voiced by warwick davis, 4500$ and you can get Bruce Campbell
Also if you dont know bruce campbell we can no longer converse
All o want from Skateee isssssss the art jeans wooooooooo plz🥺
Bruce Campbell reading vee's lines might go actually stupid tbh
That dude can sell anything
anyone knows why my trick cirkle where is gone?
what would another £79.99 do
I want Sidewalks and Skeletons track on here or Crystal castles.

would i think by tyler be in bad taste all things considering
Nah there’s some fire Tyler sounds to skate to for sure
what time is the update tmr?
im doing my part
Do you have the flick-it-visualizer enabled in the settings?
Does anyone have a fix for daily tasks not working?
@cyan spruce wdym specifically?
We don't know
i completed the daily tasks already but nothing is counting they completely froze
its more than likely gonna be the same time as every other thing so far tbf which has always been tuesday and always been 6pm atleast for my timezone =]
one more day
never heard that one before.
dawg why do you need a controller if you play on pc
@dull pilot so the D-Tres shoes were shown with the season one stuff. Are they going on the pass? I already bought them and plan to buy the pass. Will I get a refund for buying them early? Pretty sure they were like $8 if I remember right..
Playing this game on keyboard is insane tho
wait those are popular?! i thought they reminded me of the shoes parents get kids when they dont know laces yet and only know velcro
now i can't even play it at all
How do u not have a spare controller somewhere. This game even works with Nintendo pro controllers. Not very gamer.
someone make a tech deck controller lol for pc
The game is designed to be used with a controller, I dunno about skate but I know on session steam has a warning that you need a controller
Season 1 tomorrow
you guys think the servers will be down til tomorrow?
Servers are down rn ?
Haha I like them with the right outfit
i can try using a ps4 controller but i'd have to download some program and i just don't want to go through all that
Are the servers already down ?
are you asking the servers how they will be feeling tomorrow? no one asks the servers how they feel, only what they feel 🥹
Every time I open the game on steam it screeches at me that I need a controller. It def does.
Ps4 works through steam. Dont think u need a third party besides just connecting it. I use xbox controllers tho so ian sure
im asking the server if the servers would be down til tomorrow but I just got back into a server so clearly not (I thought they took the servers down to update)
They should add an actual voiceover of someone screeching to really drive it home
🤣 nooo it was a joke dw 😂 and tbf if they take them down youl probably seen an announcement here first
If nothing else. Everyone would know they needed a controller
i was wondernig why the chat is so dead 1 min slowmode is diabolical
It’s for the greater good, trust me
what, no words? just some wacky guy running towards your PoV screaming like an escaped patient of the padded realms 😂
Weeks ago, dis chat slowmode became as bad as 5 minutes
I'm surprised by how many people I've seen who don't have a controller, I know some people have never played on console, but never once wanted a game they can just kick back and play with a controller?
before release the slowmode wasnt this long
The discord was a vibe during the playtest era over the summer
i just plugged it in and it worked, phew
This chat being slow mode keeps this discord together like duct tape keeping the world together. Without it we'd be lost to the rage batters.
Also tomorrow the server is gonna be completely ridiculous and they'll probably have to put it back up to 2 mins 😩
playtest era almost better tbh than release
the map is different too
Just opened up a new credit card just in time for season 1 🥰
why is the game so buggy this morning D:
you don’t know about puppy monkey baby?!?
I’m so sad 😞
Depends on genre too. I cant see myself playing smth like silksong or any Nintendo platformer on mouse and keyboard.
Just remember it’s your money and you can use that credit card as much as you like with no repercussions
As hype as it will be, I think in 6 to 8 months the discord will calm down a lot. It's a free game and not everyone played skate 3 for 15 years like some of us. The vast majority will become casuals is my bet
the game isnt registrering a kicklip -.- a simple kickflip on the ground not even in a mission. im just trying to do score .. and the game isnt even registrering that im doing trick mid air nor when i grab.. never happen before .. but this morning wow !!!
Right now the only game I play with keyboard is the dinosaur one when your internet is down lol
For me it’s left 4 dead 2
Controller issue.
Silksong goated and facts, i like keyboard and mouse for terraria and some other games, but practically every single other game is so much better on a controller imo
I don't get that too. I understnd that shooters and strategy games are easier and better with mouse and keyboard, but to me mouse+keyboard = work. Controller + couch = relaxing 🙂
got market mile level 10 2 days ago, can't wait to play tommrow with season one broo
I’ve been working on some My War style videos on Skate, it’s funny tho trying to make my guy wipe out intentionally sometimes cause the game naturally lands so many tricks so easy
im hype
Yeah, even at a desk you can kick your feet up, lean back and just chill with a controller
no no no you dont understand. i do the trick . the game say i do no trick, their a diference ;p its not like im not doing it.. im saying the game say that im doing no trick.. when i clearly saw that im doing one
As a pc gamer I sold my controller and Xbox 360 (and skate 3) less than a year ago. I just ordered a new Xbox elite 2 from design lab and will likely only use it for this game lmao. I play with it at my desk, too.
silksong mentioned
I just joined to ask one simple question, why are there no double back/front flips
I have a bunch of controllers just from being a Halo player even on PC
Weird bug . I'd restart
Bro I hope you got warranty I hate the official Xbox and PlayStation controllers cos I swear they design them to break. I always get 3rd party ones with tmr or Hall effect sticks
Lol, you'll likely find yourself using it for other games too, both keyboard and mouse and controllers have their perks
If you flip twice you just did 2 flips. There isn't a double flip as a named trick. But im sure both flips give u points the second one being less for being repeated in the line/sequence
It's impossible though it literally stops you at one flip you can't spin further
Im prob lucky in the durability side of things cuz the xbox elite controller core is one the best gaming accessories ive ever made.
Does anyone know the best way to contact support regarding issues with the game like getting soft locked from completing daily tasks?\
Ngl, I wouldnt play a single game involving steering with a keyboard, wether that be car bike or skateboard
ea feedback forums
Yeah my buddy has had his for like 3 years some Xbox elite controller, when I got mine the sticks gave out in 2 months 💀
Is the server down? I can’t log in
I've had my elite 2 for a pretty long time now, my bumpers started to become less responsive but I just popped the front faceplate off and cleaned the actual buttons inside and haven't had an issue since, but they're definitely due an upgrade, elite 3 when
Tuff, mines going for years. I originally bought it for Sea of Thieves. It aged well with the games ive played that utilizes the paddles well. Mecha break and Battlefield 6 are examples and make the elite worth it.
Really? Are you sure, have you tried with momentum/speed. I've done triple flips+ on skate 3.
Also yeah I got warranty. It comes with it for a year, after that is $109 to repair, according to the tos on the warranty I got. Warranty was free, atleast. My gf also has controller repair tools and used to refurbish them.
But maybe you can say here what's not working. You're the first one I hear about this. So maybe you're just not doing something right. Not to say you suck haha but just sometimes those goals are picky 🙂
If it's a game that has both driving and FPS, I'll have both keyboard and gamepad, and swap between them
I was soo close to getting that controller cos of the code it came with for the skin, sells for crazy money nowadays
I hope the update tomorrow drops at 10 am CST
I think the worst part about the design lab elite 2 is that the price tag in Canada was $350. Gross, dude. If my Gf couldn't fix them I'd have bought some cheap wired trash and just rolled with it
Wait why are servers down? New season ain’t till tomorrow
Is servers are off ?
Yes I have tried off the top of the mcorp building as well as going off ramps at as fast as I can if the distance from jump to land is short you spin fast then stop if the distance is long you just spin slow but it changes the speed you flip at to match the distance you are trying to land
Someone tripped over the extension lead 😆
Ngl super cringe if we can't double flip. They better add it with darkslides tbh.
Oh you can endless flip, just hold the stick and it won't stop till you let go, or bail
Yeah that's what I'm saying right now you literally can't double flip it stops you
I have played nonstop. It seems crazy that I haven't noticed it.
I have the feeling you people are talking about different things. Held fliptricks vs double front/back flips.
Oh I dunno about body flips, not my thing
Yeah I know what you mean. Most of the dailies I completed during all of my challenges and they are not progressing at all
I hope he means body flips. I know I can endless kickflip, that's in a challenge. I typically hold my flips too. Triple lasers ever gap. I dont body flip often but im just surprised. Old skate 3 challenges had a lot of that.
Yeah I'm talking about body flips also you can't just back/front flip it always says something infront of it like "Ollie front flip" or "trickless air back flip"
Ok since you're not giving any details nobody here is going to help you. Go to the ea feedback forums and ask there but I advise you to be way more specific there.
hi, does anyone know what time and timezone is season 1 dropping?
I do wish diving down an decline was a bit more forgiving tho. The positioning and timing is super tight.

hi
When does android release?
Me no have pc bcz me live in 3rd world country
Me sad
MONKE name nice
I now happy
But need stake. Mobile
is the game down?
my names jackson too twin
can somebody help me out with the looking for skaters chat, i cant seem to send any messages
i feel like EA dont want any report XD or it would be easier to report a bug or something.. because it make no sence that i have to go on a third party site, when i want to report a bug. and now at that page i cant conect to it. do they want a cash grab ? why EA why !?!?!
Gotta comment on one of the posts already there
I also found that if you enter a challenge and then immediately start it sometimes it will soft lock in some kind of in between state where the challenge won't start but you can't do anything else can't start anything it just all disappears you aren't even able to open the menu it doesn't come back until you fully close out of the game and go back in
Yo chat cool down should AT MAXIMUM be 30 seconds
ea forums are not a third party site. its litterally first party
i'm trying to get a clip with a coffin mid-air but i keep randomly doing one-foot airs, even though i'm holding both triggers + X + A, please someone explain this sh*t because i'm losing my sanity
at least it isnt 2 minutes anymore
could you tell me how ?
I think, cant connect since 5 min
Timing, don't press the X and A too fast after the triggers
i have to go on a site that isnt a game, that consider third party because im not on the page that i was previously. there more then one definition to the word third party
ngl skate reminds me of just dance 3
ooooh now its more consistent. thank you, angel
no theres not more than one definition what are you talking about. To report a bug to EA you go to EA's website how is that third party. another page is not third party hahaha wut
When mobile release?
????
Irony
Evikull hmmm
Odd
Heart
Star odd, dust very odd
Bak
Pretty prullen
Pard
Odd?
Sy odder
In the channel, there is 3 posts. Click on the one that matches the kind of skater you want. Inside is like a channel where u can post like normal. Free skate is like just goofing off. Co op is the challenges. Throwdowns is competing.
Another thing, why can't I dog piss?
I can’t wait for tmr what time Est
yea ive got that far but i get a message in that chat from a bot
1pm i believe. assuming since thats when they do shop, task resets and news
did u have a stroke
Ah I've never posted there so im not fully sure. I just know that's where they do it. Sorry. Hopefully someone else can assist ya.
Gotta nose grab first bro
Instructions here which might help you pull it off:
#skate-videos message
just tried in all of them, it only seems to be the co-op one i cant chat in
Can someone help me? I have tour 1 blocked, mission 101 is blocked, and I can't advance.
barb odd
Stroke maybe
Barb pretty odd
But needing crucial information very odd for all you
Me sad
Just need information which crucial for I
For I need know when skate mobile out?
sorry you didn't study enough in your life, but if your mental wanna be stuck on what people have teach you that up to you.. but open a dictionary and check on more then one definition of a word. or how to use it in more then one iteration.
like i said, i was on the game and i have to go to a site, that third party right there .. im not on where i was previously and i had to go somewhere els. because the game itself doesnt give you the option to report in game bug. so you have to go to a site. that is not on the game. that third party
dude what are you talking about lol
Theres a legit timer for season 1 why people even asking fr this tik tok culture has ruined common sense
That's not third party.
noun: third party; plural noun: third parties
a person or group besides the two primarily involved in a situation, especially a dispute.

Might need to do enough challenge goals first
Ok ok enough yapping
I need to know abt skate mobile
you literaly just proove my point ty .. i was with skate my second party. then i had to go to EA site third party
A myth
md pls
Its called skate it. Look it up you will love it. Just came out.
You are unbelievably stupid, stubborn, or both. Bye.
Last I heard skate mobile is still in the works, but personally wish it'd be scrapped lol
Any @admins or @moderators on and able to answer a question??
With the skate pass, are we going to be able to grind it from day dot or is it going to be time delayed? Meaning we can only complete certain amount of challenges daily?
u lack mental brain power XD idk why ur trying to argue when you are wrong, im using it corectly your just too dum to know any better.. unless someone spoon fed it to you.. you couldnt see the diference
Wait its a real thing? I'm with you. Scrap it. Devote attention to skate.
Unfortunately, I'd much prefer if they focussed solely on pc and console for a better overall experience
I need mobile
I needs it
I NEEDS IT
NEEDING NEED NEED NEED
i personally dont mind as long as it doesnt affect pc and console. fortnite did it and they seem fine
Skate is not a party. A party is, as in the dictionary that you told me to look up but didnt yourself, a group or person.
wtf are you even trying to say. You come on discord, which by the way is a third party to talk about a bug because you thought it was too much of a hassle to go to the first party website it's so backwards it can't be real.
Mobile gaming 💀
Chill out smeagol 😆
It arguably already has affected it
Anyone know if season 1 is gonna be an update?
how so?
Can anyone else also not log into the game rn on my screen it says youve been kicked from this server
Well I've played hollow knight
Fnf
Cuphead, I reached a really big point
Codm
Gd
Dead cells
Fall game or sum I can't remember
And a lot of others I can't remember
Is the game down ? I can't log in
The graphics mainly, originally it had a much different more realistic look, now it's this much more toned down, plasticky cartoon look, presumably to make it lighter and easier for mobile
Why are we getting season 1 when half of us are still soft locked on main missions
get a job loser
Ok sweet and boys imagine if they add a day night cycle 🫨🫨
The only good mobile games are Simpsons tapped out and temple run
That’s honestly such a W if there doing the update now
They should add the yuto horigome cake deck 🍰
Game is down???
The Simpsons tapped out is a game? Isn't it just buying stuff and placing it? The only good mobile game is YouTube or the internet imo.
😔
Job job sahuar
i mean nothings final and they seem open to changing graphics. i guess we'll see in about a year if the game still looks off
You take that back 😧
Pass is meant to drop when daily challenges resets. 10am pacific time
is that tung tung cousin?
Im sorry. I take it back. Im trying to be silly but its 8 am and I can't sleep yet lmao
Lmfao yes sir evil cousin 😂😂
game is up?
Yeah, I hope so, it's just we already saw how it looked in that trailer before, if was more realistic and gritty and dirty, like anyone would've expected a modern skate. game to look, it was vastly different to how it is now
i couldn't sleep a wink. was sick for 2 weeks. im good now but been sleeping WAY too late (4 PM). Resetting the cycle begins now. It will be miserable. It will be awful. But - I have skate to keep me company
Where can I post clips from the new skate ?
Any other young retirees in here? Looking for a party.
Damn I know how that is
Stay hydrated homie
That's what I expect, I want the "still working on it" trailer version of the game lol
If you stay up for a night, stay awake until 10:30pm next night your schedule will reset
same here, i can't log in
work done skate on
bless you
the launch cheat isnt working anymore for me
"Will the visuals change over time? Absolutely. You'll see the characters and world evolve to include even more detail and personality through our future updates." - grind vol 5. i might sound crazy but i honestly have faith in full circle to actually listen and make a good game
Because that update is coming with fixes
There haven't been any updates the past while so that's a skill issue
I hope, I just don't see them completely reverting the artstyle, it would mean changing basically everything
me too. But I feel like maybe it was also a technical decision. I think it would run even less smooth for a lot of people with those graphics. Here's hoping for the future though!
Why am i not able to log in man
What are fun things to do in this game
it was only launching me like 15 feet up, did it like 10 times in a row...I finally got it to work
hopefully it will get released before 1 season pass
Any other young retirees in here? Looking for a party.
mostly skating
Maybe, but then there's plenty of games which look significantly better than that which run without issue
skate. that's it really. it's in the name.
GM
I think because it's a free mmo type game they need as many people playing as possible. Going big on graphics limits users with poor cards. It's why WoW doesn't look good when blizzards animation and art team was top notch.
Me to
cant log in, keeps kicking me from server.
priorities, I guess...But yeah I agree should be possible. So let's hope.
oh great can’t get on anyway
Just came to say the same thing, kicked from server
Dang. I'll play something else instead for a bit. probly minecraft or somethin
maybe servers down but no announcement, i can`t log in too
I hear skating is pretty cool
I just got in
How to skate?
i noticed no announcements aswell
did ur slow motion issue stop when u started using EA? i cant find a fix for this thing bruh
My brother is on. We want olay but i cant login
can i chargeback my deluxe pass? can’t even play the game anyway
can anyone in here do challenges with me?
are the servers of skate down or smth?
Yeah, loads are reporting connection issues, and kick from server. No announcement though
idk, I'm figuring that out
Does anyone know why I have the entire tour 1 locked but it lets me continue playing in the free world and I can't do the story or the tutorials?
No they aren't down.
anyone else having problems wit high cpu usage aswell?
known
Imagine a day night cycle 🫨🫨🫨
alr thx
I think stepping on the bord is a good start
and weather
clearly not serious hence why i asked discord
already put it in ideas would be amazing
Bro it would actually be amazing 🤞🤞
maybe they're prepping for a 24hr downtime this time instead of 1hr that was really 12hrs
think the 98 hours played already id stand no chance anyway
servers must be down i cant load on either lol
hopefully not im tryna play lol
i cant launch the game
getting kicked
same
I'm skating around right now, no problems so idk whats happening for people
I have thousands of hours on league, and am debating a charge back myself genuinely and quitting because of a support issue I have. Just has to be recent enough.
Servers were overloaded the other day as well so its server side and lots of ppl also cudnt boot in
sorry guys i chewed the servers
(real footage:)
🐥 🖥️
i was online but then my game started feelin laggy, so i restarted and ran into this problem
they better be up at 7pm (CEST, so in 2 hours) or...
or nothing, really. I'll probably just watch tv tonight.
Offline mode looking real nice right now huh haha
same but with runescape lol
i was getting kicked now its saying failed to join session
nope, on both EA and steam it was fine until i got on the other island
two error codes either kicked from server or unable to find matchmaking
im gonna re try logging in
Do you mean footy? That's short for footage by the way.
oh you right
i’m in! i just heard the “heeyusjzhdhdwuak ” noise
Is the getting kicked issue only eu or every server?
tired of all the glitches man, always getting flung from rails, game stuttering when too many people are online, waiting for players during challenges, same challenges everday also. already max level, it's just so addicting, now we're probably about to have towelheads running around
i keep getting an error when i try to connect
Almost like it's early access
everyone is lad
still same problem cant log in
Patch notes out yet ??
my skate working
Has the skate team come out with a statement about the connecting issue?
almost yeah, except it's just a coverup. it doesnt take 5 years to make a game like this, let alone have micro transactions in early access, that just goes to show EA's true intent once again (my opinion)
My bad pimp, forgot you were a dev
Waiting for players quickfix is to not skip the mini cutscene, more challenges added tomorrow, more content and areas to skate and a bunch of bugfixes
Someone to play?
i just got in the game after a few tries, hopefully it works for you lot soon
this is exactly what i've been saying and people don't get it haha
Different age of gaming deal w it don’t have to spend money it’s optional
Avg ea server experience
i know but we shouldnt have to not skip the cutscene when they offer it yk
is it's only me who cant enter the game bcs of error you was kicked?
yeah i really do love the game but having microtransactions before having all the tricks is INSANE
i've been connected without errors
I agree, its pretty pathetic to release a game after having people beta test since 2022, and not fix the bugs that i have 0 doubt were reported on prior to release.
I'm convinced the game was half scrapped and drastically reworked 3 years ago tbh, like that trailer looks like a totally different game,
I got in now, just took like 10 tries
"all the tricks" is a really weird statement though. It's not like earlier skate games had all tricks possible on a board...and then you'd never get an update.
I had to make a whole new account because I got softlocked on the first one (thankfully I didn't spend any money right away but I feel bad for the people who did) they planned on releasing a patch last week and never delivered so they are having us wait till s1
im in now
i mean you can just be insulting all you want, i never said i'm a dev nor did i act like i'm a dev. it's just common sense man, i mean i have a background in coding and game constructing somewhat but you can't deny it could be better, it just really seems they only want to see how much money they can get out of the community by building a game with addicting mechanics after the last game in the franchise was released in 2010. i still love the game but they just aren't priortizing things.either then don't know how to fix the glitches or bugs or they just dont care
You want me to read all that?
damn bruh, im thinking we should just literally stay on tutorial island to actually play the game lol
Ooo torches and pitchforks @cinder field ?
I feel like it’s always that or calm with this sever, no in between
That's how software development goes. You fix 1 bug, you introduce 2 others. Bugfree software does not exist. In fact, some bugs, like the waiting for playrs bug, wasn't there before. And it will probably be fixed tomorrow. And then we will find other bugs to complain about for weeks. While the devs fix those.
That island wasn’t made to be in the tutorials. There’s a high probability (assumption btw) that most people fell off the grind rail than made it all the way to the bottom level
The internet can’t read man😭🙏
-# I read your message though.
wait we can go back?
Can someone help me
lmao thanks, geknor over here thinking he knows everything because he's a modder in gta 😭 . i was doing ts when i was 13 bro
Welcome back! Naaah it's not that bad atm. We had worse today. I really trained my block and report muscles the last couple of hours.
Simple brained and pressed.
bro i dont think so lol, i tried to find but nah sadly
it's the simple fact that it's EA they shouldn't have to delay a patch that is literally preventing players from playing their game yet their shop was fully functional from the start. yes I understand the devs that made the game and the shop devs are different but it still shouldn't take EA (a big company) to send out a patch or at least be honest and not lie about a release of a patch.
I remember when we were mortal enemies
Good times!
then again I’m fun to debate with /j /j /j
Im stuck with error code 3967269002 can someone help me
anyone knóws what time the update comes out? (EST)
Yeah what time
@deep bluff My fault, I saw your question. If you’re referring to the island that you go on when you boot up the game talking about “welcome to skate, before you go to San Van, I got to teach you how to move your board”; that island wasn’t made to be a tutorial island
I don't think we ever were.
I'm a skordbord ambassador for crying out loud 😄
Please someone help
With
wait for real? so they made it into a tutorial island throughout the dev process or what
Something like that.
@storm jewel Error code 3967269002 i cant log in
Lmfao not actually, we’ve had like one disagreement that we could both understand each others reasons for
I just think it’s fun to overplay it for the bit 🙂↕️
A lot of people are having the same issue atm, servers have gone down for loads. There’s been no downtime announcement though
Why isn't the export replay working for me im on xbox series x
how long till brickswitch?
To unlock the "Without Footy It's Fiction" achievement on Xbox and enable the replay export function -
Go to Xbox Settings:
- Preferences > Capture and Share
General > Captures by me and games
(Automatic Uploads > Captures by me and games)
- Restart skate.
- Hold down on the D pad > Replay
- Press Select (View) for Drafts > X to Export > A to start recording
- Wait until it is done and you're asked to press A again.
Repeat 10 times.
That’s insane
my game is lagging super bad, anyone else?
Anyone else stuck with error code 3967269002
On X @skate. direct communications, there should be an update on there soon about what’s going on
the shop was functional even pre-early-access. of course it's still functional. What do you think the complaints were if there were bugs in the shop?
If I make software (and I do a lot) I'll make damn sure that the part where people actually spend money is going A OK. Imagine the hell on earth when that goes wrong for a lot of people...
I think I missed a couple episodes, what’s the current topic? If EA is money hungry?
Yes! That’s literally their reputation, yall remember when they talked about charging people for ammo in a game?
This doesn’t mean skate is a bad game, just has some… unsavory elements because of it
Bug fixing isnt easy, but its their job. the waiting for players bug isnt major , but the softlocking issue should have been patched asap, players shouldnt have had to wait for a month to get a fix
Im in now its chill but when’s the update
does it work on other consoles i’ve not seen my exported clips anywhere
Does S1 drop today? I thought that was tomorrow
the softlocks are continuously being worked on, and people are getting unlocked all the time, you can read it in this chat sometimes. nobody has waited for a month, the game is not even in early access for a month.Your exagerating to make a point but the point is moot. Yes the game has problems, but it's understandable.
its tomorrow
Tomorrow
@real junco icant logged in either
Yes I am!
the point is it's EARLY ACCESS it doesn't matter if it's free or it just got released to the public there is no reason for us to be having seasons and paid items if the game is literally breaking and soft locking people. the game is great and has amazing potential BUT it's shady in the way it's going at it from a business stand point.
I feel sorry for the people who spent money just to get soft locked a couple of missions into the game not being able to do anything.
Have to keep trying
Guys are glitches permissible i seem to think the height glitch to space isn’t slowed
Ngl I have not heard of anyone getting their soft lock fixed that are bugged on the island. It’s been 3 weeks
Maybe not those. But other softlocks are.
they do not care if you do glitches
I second this, My main account got soft locked the second the game released and I recently checked it multiple times and it still isn't fixed mind you my soft lock is probably the most common from what people have been saying yet it still isn't fixed
This said, I do agree with the general sentiment that these… shouldn’t have been issues in the first place.
The shop and gameplay are different devs, for sure, but EA isn’t exactly a small indie studio with no resources for QA testing pre-patch, nor do they lack the capability to release the core gameplay loop in a proper state
The game has issues, and that doesn’t make it bad, but I do have to wonder how some of these issues even made it into the public early access
Yeah tomorrow it is.
i dont remember anyone being locked on the island until release
@real junco it works rn for me
arre they adjusting brickswich before release? i just had a look around and it doesnt look like therre is anything different to the otherr areas apart from the huge ramp
it also doesn't cost them a single penny to make the game have an offline mode. I said what I said
Only problem I have is with the game launching. Have to re install it sometimes, other times I just have to verify my files on Steam.
News to me that EA developed the game
right, but they're making an online only game
Communication on this has been almost non existent which is a shame. I’ve seen it talked about on here but not on the official twitter
Does anyone know how to fix the CPU being at 90 degrees?
Yo anyone know how to fix error code 852146987
Get better cooling
Full circle is supported by EA at the very least, considering their hiring page is on the EA website
so… I’d say they’re involved, yeah! Maybe not in development directly, but they have sway over how the game does
I think ur pc is about to burn.
it's a live service game I still stand my point which is they lose not a single dime from making the game offline
it's a mmo
Nothing is being said about Brickswich until Season 2 so nobody knows yet if more ramps will be added along with the challenges etc
It's always you with your good points and nuance. I hate you 😛
I agree overall.
But: Even with as much as qa testing, you don't get to test it on this scale we're playing now. That is exactly what early access is for.
And some issues arose during last week, like the waiting for players bug. That's new and so it couldnt be found during pre-early-access.
I don't know how it's possible that so many people are being softlocked, but that must be a scaling issue, otherwise you're totally right: It's ridiculous that wasn't found in qa or playtesting.
so its not being released until season 2? i thought it was coming out with the rest of season 1
.
It's not even being teased until Season 2 as per #1420816327668400249 message
So likely Season 3
that is very unfortunate
I'm not even gonna hold my breath for brickswitch season 3 tbh, otherwise I feel like surely they'd say that rather than more info in season 2
we are gonna have more challenges to do tomorrow anyways.
any info about tomorrow update timer or still nothing ?
game still down?
Still only the educated guess that it will be 6PM GMT
For sure! My main gripe with it is it being released in this state alongside the shop, it’s not either element individually but the two together
It feels sour to see, in a way, and gives the impression (at the very least) that the shop is more important to them than the game overall, even if that’s not the case (ex. EA pushing a shop that FC didn’t even want to include)
Like, people being soft locked? Yeah, that’s early access stuff, but most early access titles don’t also ask me for $10 for an individual pair of shoes ^^’
And yeah, it’s… optional, but it’s expression, and anyone that enjoys the game will want to express themselves, with the only other way to get cosmetics being interacting with the game instead of your wallet, I get why people may feel uncared for being soft locked for a week or more ^^’
TLDR; “is it fixed yet?” “No but we added new clothes to the store! Come buy it”
Yeah I mean it definitely gives the dev team time to change or extend the release date by not explicitly stating which Season it will release
guys do you know a way t ofix my transition 101 part 1 mission i cant move
buddy do you have no self control
Guys if the games down, why don't we try and cheer it up
@shut bluff im hoping for the insider rewards
God no, never, I like talking to people about things
Existing is fun!!!
The store is literally on an auto-cycle, it's not hand picked items haha
Hopefully you get yours soon 🙏
Insider deck is honestly the best in the game so far lol
the most popular game that launched in early access and stayed in early access for many years had a shop - Fortnite (not saying it makes it right, but its not a new thing as being made out)
fellas I don't think barbwire cares truthfully or isn't mentally capable to understand
@shut bluff i really like the board and idk when im getting them
the whole shop argument is dumb because a shop is incredibly easy to make compared to an actual working video game lol. the items are obviously for people that want to buy them.
just don't buy them.
You don't understand or grasp the full picture and that's okay I understand that you don't understand.
Personally I don't think the game was ready for a shop because of the weak item selection more than anything lol
anyone can help me? i am p5 and i cant get in the game
Guys is the pass coming out at a set time Tommorow or is it coming out at 1AM
1pm est
I understand the emotion behind it, and the way it feels. But then again, the optional part is a big one, imo. I totally understand people want to express themselves (hey, I sort of bought the red pants 😛 ) but what I don't understand is why anyone would want to do that in a game thats broken for them. So the argument "people paid for it while they can't play the game" is only relevant if you got soft locked later. And that totally sucks, I get it. But it is kinda a risk you took when you spent money in an early access game with obvious problems ( a risk I also took, btw).
Vote with your wallet, keep the 2 cents in ya mouth. People knew what was coming when the shop was functional 6+ months ago. Why cry about it now lol
personally i dont even think the game was ready for EA release.
I got six (6)Man NBA pre season Diamond picks to hit on $10,000+ send me a friend request or message
The bigger problem is how sparse the shop actually is for a game that is meant to be built and funding the future of the game off its shop
I can't believe EA would try to monetize their free to play game with predatory, optional, and entirely cosmetic microtransactions... won't somebody stop oppressing the gamers?

why is everything not free? I can just directly send my money to the EA office instead out of pure gratitude
i don't mind cosmetics, they could at least make them look good
Homie did not read my post
I said it’s optional, I also explained people will want to express themselves, because that’s how people do! It’s not about there being a shop, it’s about the shop being implemented alongside a game that fundamentally isn’t playable for some people, that is a cause for concern whether you buy into the shop or not.
Don’t buy it, you still watch it happen. Not interacting with it doesn’t magically get rid of it lmao.
@cinder field absolutely, and anyone that did buy probably made a poor investment by acting on impulse, but I moreso mean logging on just to see if it’s fixed, and seeing that the only changes were new shop items, those people probably should feel uncared for, since that’s effectively the tldr I put above
It's just money
"for some people." so those people don't need to worry about the shop. it's really that simple.
Cool! Tell them to go play skate and enjoy the gameplay then
Oh, wait…
Sorry man, I can't hear you over my dank loud croptop jacket with gold accents and matching baseball cap
How evil of EA to put a way to make money in their free game cause the game has a bug in it
I agree. again 😛
Ok Chat, this was a lesson in how it should go. Noctis and i just showed you you can half agree, be normal human beings and have a conversation. Today's lesson is over.
or, go outside
EA they say the game is not Paid to win and is free to play yet the only thing we CAN unlock are cosmetics (mind you fashion is a big part of skateboarding) and we only get the same 10 items with retextures. Yes they can state that free to play people get 30 new items this S1 update but who's to say they won't just get 5 different items and just retexture them. They already showed that they are willing to do that just to be able to say "Oh look we got several shoe options" when it's just the same model different texture (mind you it probably takes like 30 minutes MAX to retexture something.
sorry i can't even read you, ive got too much multicolors leggings on my sight
tomorow right?
#Justice4Slappy
1pm est the new season?
claims EA are being disingenous about their claims of no pay to win elements and then describes purely cosmetic microtransactions
lmao i didnt even wanna respond to that
pay to win in a skate game, crazy
/s for the idiots
What if they did a skate. x Skate 3 collab? Man, that would be so cool.
Tommrow season 1
what doesa that even meaaaann
what else is there to unlock? matter a fact aren't they adding a feature where you cna trade in your san van bucks for chips? meaning you're technically paying to progress faster in the game which even if it's not a advantage that most will see it still is technically paid to win especially if it's a time event.
best way to say it is Paid to progress
so what is 1pm est?
Literally. Me looking for the pay-to-win 
tomorow
You aware of timezones and their existence?
bro thinks winning is the amount of clothing he owns in game
They should add... skateboards and stuff...
Why can't we be friends! Why can't we be friends!
I havent seen the mention of the SVB to rip chips feature? am I unaware on this? That also again doesn’t make u win anything either way but also ive never heard that
it's not about the clothing it's the progression itself, learn to read.
yea guys but i asked: "New season out tomorrow at 1pm est?"
And someone answered me with NO emoji
They should add big egg shape boards please
no they are not adding that. You can trade them for tix. that's different. If your accusing people to learn how to read, do better yourself.
ah excuse me on that then I was wrong on my part but I guess we just have to see how it plays out
the progression is learning new tricks, finding new spots, finding more fun. The literal progression is cosmetics, but aren’t games meant to be fun? make your own progression broski
even if they did you aren't "paying to win" you're paying for more clothes. just like you would normally in game lol...
ive tried to say this to sm ppl
The progression is supposed to be getting good at the game, not making number go up
ya the fun is in skating
Don’t tix have SV as a conversion option…? I might be wrong on that
That said, I disagree with skate being pay-to-win, maybe pay-to-progress. It’s just a cosmetic shop, it’s also just… overpriced.
If you want something, buy it if you have the expendable income and you if don’t want it or can’t, let it pass and grab it next time
Getting everything isn’t… a reasonable goal.
With a heavy disclaimer that you don't actually skate like it's an egg board. Different board shapes would be cool.
Numbers are wack
Now we getting it!
Test
ive been loving just skating random spots n trying to get good at a line im doing
They make me angry because I don't understand them...
There's one now... @proven drift
Modern gaming has made us forget that games are just for fun and your fun is not entirely determined by the progression of unlocking a new shirt (but its still cool that its an option)
I just feel bad for those that don't use their skater eyes fr
The "lets see how it plays out" part is what I was basically arguing. I sincerely hope the rumors of fixed softlocks for most people tomorrow is gonna be real. And that a lot of the most annoying bugs are fixed and that they didn't introduce new ones (but there surely will be some).
Well see.
For now, I kinda have to go make dinner and then it's off to san vansterdam to rake in those chips.
Alright everyone, seven has nominated themselves for the test
Vote yes or no for seven, ladies and gentlemen (and other)!
Unironically
No I couldn’t type in another channel so I was wondering if I couldn’t type
ik its cringe but its fax, some ppl dont have em
Btw the total steezer who hooked us up with those dlss through Nvidia app, your a genius! Worked like a charm .
all they need to do is fix the major bugs tbh
the game itself is amazing
Real eye realize skater eyes skaterize... stay woke fam
360 flip nose blunt down a hubba. get it clean. Enjoy
Yeah the whole skater eyes thing is some of the most cringe dialogue I've seen in gaming in a while, but skaters do genuinely see the world differently
Best mechanic ever.
waiting for those patch notes.
Real eyes realize realize real eyes…
🤯
I think people get progression and activities mixed up tbh, people really just need more to occupy there minds
Flower Leggins were thus far the only items worth buying, I see loads of you likin' the checkered pants, but I don't like it 😭
L3 to activate skater eyes is the best thing the series has ever done
In the blog they said you can get tix with svb's or chips, but it does not say you can get chips with svb's. Of course that doesn't mean it can't be done, we'll see...
It's certainly not paid to win, and they promised that tricks will always be free, areas will always be free and some other thing I can't remember. Let's hope they keep that promise.
i also think a lot of stuff is overpriced, but as we talked about earlier, the pass probably not as much.
Guys…WHAT is there to win on a damn skate game? Stop using terms that don’t fit haha
if you think winning is the amount of clothing you own in game there's a problem here
Only things I've gotten are golden trucks, a board art, and black sunglasses lol
Muh high top vans tho
Lies, souls games are about fashion as well.
Ngl those gold royal trucks go fire with the plain gold deck
Watch some real skate videos and get inspired to skate like your favourite parts in game, then you'll really be winning
Thrasher my war series always helps
Just watch Yeah Right
Embed scam fail
True, I got those as well. Was more talking clothes
How am I supposed to make all the crazy boards with door hinges n shi like the fancy lads do...
The sci-fi fantasy video recently was great, hope they'll come to the game some day, hsu was in the live action so it could definitely happen
Jeff is back. Must just be rolling outta his bungalow
who is the worst person in skate history?
My baddd must have read it wrong way earlier
For sure on the free stuff, and I’m happy that’s the approach. I don’t think this game would benefit from DLC areas for $10 a pop on top of the shop making me do something that ain’t okay with the cops
… uhhh… everybody do the flop?
The pricing I feel drastically needs to see some form of change, even if it’s just a small drop of SV from challenges, just… something to ease the shop prices, not make everything they need to make ROI on easily earnable without spending, but enough to give us a way to (for example) close out extra sv from past purchases
Eric Sparrow
The person who invented scooters.
Fair. I haven't seen anything clothes-wise that I'd want to get
Making me question if scooters even EXIST in the skate universe now
I don’t think I’ve ever seen one…
If we get a full Nike SB pack with janoskis included, I’ll drop money
map areas wont be locked behind paywalls ever
i dont think nike coming back💔
I picked up the black skirt, becausse I didn't have a good one to fit with anything, nor spotted a decent one in the boxes.
Imagine if they get around it by locking areas behind a dress code, can't get in without a certain pair of shoes you can only get in the store lol
Not sure how that would work cause they’re collab shoes, but hopefully it’s possible.
I think you might have missed an episode, that’s what we’re talking about lol, I was saying that I think them choosing that is better than them choosing to do DLC areas for purchase
Dont give them bright ideas
I don't know...I agree that especially the branded stuff is ridiculously expensive, but as long as there is enough nice free stuff to unlock, I don't really mind that much. If everything was payed and/or crazy expensive (looking at you, f125. also by EA btw, and a 60$ game to begin with)...that would be a different story
I'm here waiting for like OG etnies like shoes, the big lumpy ones.
The worst part about a digital storefront is not being able to shoplift
If I was evil that would be a genius idea though
in every free to play game ever there is free currency (which honestly has the cooler stuff to buy anyway) and a premium currency only earned by paying real money or buying the pass
That's pretty much why I got the black sunglasses. The boxes don't have some of the basics I'd expect to get eventually
Red high top supras instead.
Most companies are evil. They’d 100% do this😂
How does one get there music in the game
you dont
Something I haven’t really considered during this topic is that the pass also has a free side, which will give a fair amount of cosmetics
That said, it’ll fully depend on how they look. They literally put Arthur’s fit in the game and showed it to us, so I’m… hopefully scared
@mossy acorn gaming ?
Ima be honest here, I never liked em, not when I started wearing vans 20 years ago, and not now. 😭 (To be fair, I was tempted to cop em tho on skate)
I live and die by my high tops
Where’s the cowboy hats by the way? Feels discriminatory
i need space alien themed decks pls D:
People always be telling me they have no arch support but I think they're so comfy
the one's they showed off so far look pretty good.
So its not possible
every free to play game ever as a gross overgeneralization ^^’ there are games that let players earn small portions of premium currency, albeit nowhere near purchase amounts. It’s not unprecedented
They’ll probably add a green alien skin too
There definitely isn't any arch support lol. They're super comfortable for me though
Jamie foy 306’s need to be in the game too. All color ways 😩😩 my current favorite shoe.
And the Reynold 933's 🤌
Just mail your mixtape to EA HQ and tell them to put their favorite track in the game, I'm sure it will work out
i neeeeed
I can't say that, I'm a terminal Slip-on enjoyer.
As always, it remains to be seen...I once saw someone in this chat say that really nicely, to withhold judgement until it's out...but...I can't believe you litterally wrote that get off your high horse! 😛
Also, skordbord.
Really have to go now I'm staying here way too long haha.
I liked the pass stuff, and I grabbed the deluxe so I’m chilling tbh, I liked the black jacket they showed off a lot, not huge on the costume though
Absolutely ^
I’m sure that’s on the way
check out #skate-screenshots for some other items they showed off.
one thing I will knock EA on is the “skate pass” only giving out 400 from a 1000 purchase of the premium tier, they missed with not making it so u can just never have to buy another again but yo im on ur side bro I hate greedy EA, I just also think that it could be worse
low key I want jewelery
🤣 if only it were that simple
O and one more reaaally last thing, while you're in skate content, why not have some fun.
Something I’ll note about this:
HD2 has the same deal for technically less items, albeit items have different impacts between those games, seeing as HD2 includes gear to use in combat
That said… HD2 is literally praised for the warbond model, so Skate CAN do this right, it’s a really shaky “we’ll see” for me
Note: I am not defending the model, only making an interesting comparison
People's skate outfits are gonna be more expensive than their actual irl outfits
i’m quitting making hotdogs and im coming back to skating yall
i think only fortnite can get away with giving back the vbucks spent on the battlepass
Welcome back Jason Lee, where’s a my name is earl reboot?
Give me a 2 foot, 14mm solid gold chain rn
for example warframe is the best example of being literally free to play
ist hier jemand, der deutsch spricht und bock auf paar Koop-Challegenges hat ?
cod and apex does tho
apex is EA btw
haha geht nicht auf pc
Idk why I asked yall like yall would know
Yes sir, that will be 250,000svb
Thank you! You can literally get rich on plat without spending a dollar in this game with enough effort, this game is still relevant so it’s working, I’d argue
New content is also released for free in that game, another interesting comparison
wie meinst du ? 😄
doesnt warframe have a whole economy tho
like a mmo economy
server down auf pc
Quarter of a million bucks 🥀
I got one rando added on skate, and he invites me every day to do just pump out the daily challenges 🫂
Do they use ai for deck designs? Or all hand made
Im happy as long as they add more characters customizable options
bei mir hats eben funktioniert 😮 ich probiers mal aus 😄
You can save 400svb if you don't spend it from the skate pass though!
okay mach mal
I mean, there’s a trade system but just because the exact system can’t be implemented doesn’t mean the core idea flat out doesn’t work, no?
ps5 servers down? i get "kicked" error message when booting
ye good thing is u can progress the Skate Pass even in the next season but even that is so unclear on the messaging like it seems every free tier is progressable forever but premiums are only progressable for another season after? its all so clunky and strange sounding
There's a warframe economy yeh.
sure, they'd just need to make it so u can exchange rip chips for svb which i doubt they'll do lol.
Woah, I didn't think of that
I’m hoping we’ll see 500 on typical seasons, as they noted this one was shorter, there’s a nonzero chance the extra tiers that would be in the pass include 2 more 50 drops, for example
When you’re in a co-op mission, whoever wins, the mission should be the replay
When you finish a mission, it should seamlessly let you keep skating and just show the mission completed. Stuff as an overlay off to the side.
The box opening should allow you to open all the boxes you can at once
Any idea when season 1 is dropping? I’m assuming 10 AM PST tomorrow with the reset?
geht wieder
If they add the AI assets from inzoi it will be a 10/10 for me
-# scooters came first. Without them we wouldn't have skateboards. So bow down to the ancestor
haste bock auf paar coop ?
if you buy premium you can work on season 1 during season 2. not for free.
Yeah right, I don't bow down to monkeys either. 🤡
They’d never, I agree, but I could see a system that rewards the player for doing all daily’s in a region, for example, or having them earn small bundles of 5 for sequences over x score, with a tiny chance to get 25
There are ways it could be implemented and feel like part of the intended game loop imo
I feel like they gonna stick with that 400 tbh theyve hit the sweet spot to nickle and dime players and forcing them to atleast once every 2, 3? seasons go with the 1000svb bundle
And will still have to buy SVB for season two premium content.
maybe way later down the line. be aware tomorrow is only 0.28. i just don't see it happening here soon. i'd like to be wrong tho.
Good skate morning
cant wait to make my character look like joan jett tommrow. 😂
Include real professional skaters skating around the city
• They chill, skate, or give out challenges — feels alive and true to skate culture.
• Add a dynamic day/night cycle
• Streetlights turn on at night, different vibes and challenges for specific times (e.g., morning Bob Burnquist challenge, late-night Baker Boys challenge).
• Bring back “Hall of Meat”
• Keep the bail montages and Thrasher covers — adds immersion and humor.
• Add a high score leaderboard mode
• Start a timer and try to get the highest score before time runs out.
• Rotate community-made parks into official downtown areas
• Like “featured parks” so user creativity becomes part of the city.
• Track wear and tear on gear
• Boards get scratched, trucks wear down, wheels get dirty — realism without being annoying.
• Keep the Skate 3 energy and culture
• The humor, personality, and culture references that made Skate 3 special.
• No need for “special tricks” or superpowers — just authentic skating.
• Coach Frank-type characters for authenticity
• Fun nods and cameos from real figures in skate culture.
Remember that the next time a scooter kid snakes your line and accidently whips your shins 
It’s EA. We’re 1000% not getting enough to unlock the next season just by playing.
I feel like these small things they are getting wrong with the pass already like that are such easy wins and so avoidable to not give people justifiable ammunition against them 😭 just let everybody progress any season ang time as long as they log in during that season or ATLEAST if they buy the premium line of the season progress it whenever, like all these caveats…
Convince Saudi Arabia since they bought it
Sadly, I was rooting for the pass until they said you'd only get 400 back for the whole pass, sadly I now know I'll probably only be able to afford 2 of the passes at most each year , iv got kids and responsibilities 😆
apex does it 🥀
didn't they advertise that you can?
I might be misremembering tho
AI Could Carry here
They're testing how far they can push people
100%
I’m aware. I just don’t see it happening with Skate. IMO anyways, I’ve been wrong before.
Look AI Everywhere else can go to hell but in games it just has too much potential
nty!
some SVB that you can use towards next season! That some being the key word. 400 SVB if you complete it.
Coach clankee
Oh for sure not soon, I doubt it would come before 1.0, as much as that stings to me (the idea of giving players a way to earn currency that far down the line while having the shop active with its current pricing for them to keep profit while they iron out bugs feels… sour) but I also understand that the monetization is the way it is because this game would be dead on landing otherwise
It needs steady cash flow to work, I just wish more of that cash flow was visibly directed towards effort fixing the game, since anything going on lately hasn’t been seen yet, I assume it’s all behind the scenes rn since it’s code stuff, but
Even a “hey, here’s how it’s going!” Would be nice
I thought in their main "advertisement" for the season pass they said you could play through it on the next season and get enough currency to buy the next one, bruhhh
its frustrating cause people obviously want the game to be good and sustainable and they just shoot themselves in the foot in the most silly ways cause greed. some companies havent figured out yet somehow that if you actually make pro consumer moves it is more beneficial financially long term (these sorts of anti consumer moves such as not a 1 to 1 roi on ur players premium pass investment work out short term) but not worth it imo esp when the games got enough toxicity round it
Half the stuff you said is in the road map. They’ve already stated this game is not a remake of skate 3 in any form but they’re keeping/adding some root game modes and tricks.
If only they use it for NPC behaviour and not the parts where you don't need it, other than cutting cost.
did they say 400 per skate.pass? or is it just the free tier?
so is there any new form of challenges for the new season or is it just the same stuff we have gotten but it counts for battle pass progress?
I’m just glad they’re adding 40 more challenges. Getting Market Mile maxed has been a pain in the ass.
Like with character customizations and loading different assets and npc behavior thats it
Yeah I had originally set myself 60$ per year for a budget on skate, but I'm feeling a lot less generous now, and sadly it's all because of the pass
Sick can’t wait! I mean for me personally just more skate brand stuff. I was really hoping to see bearings for some reason in this game but like more spots to skate and more skate brands, but as I’m playing, it ideas are popping up and I’m just jotting them down on my notes.
No, not in customization. AI is too generic with visuals.
bet the free tier isn't even going to have any
Games are art, keep ai out of art please (:
One idea I do love from this is featured parks via community vote
That would be a wonderful way to pad for time and give devs more space to breathe while encouraging an actual sense of being part of the world, seeing it change and potentially contributing to it
That ones neat
it's coming. they'll replace the impervatek parks.
If they use inzois method I dont think it will be bad but if not I can see why u say that
Watch them add like 2 challenges to the market mile area lmao.
exactly, its genuinely frustrating that companies dont recognise keeping their players happy will keep their (EA’s) wallets happy 😂
it hasn't even started man
The first day I played this game I was thinking one of these buildings could be a custom Skatepark building and when you’re in a party, you could pick one of your friends to skate their building and then if they did have some pro deck features in here, your deck and magazine covers could be displayed on the walls of your custom Skatepark and there could also be like a stock ticker in there that just says high scores or who beat who wanna challenge or who beat who in skate or whatever
skate way overhated
Are they gonna put key frames in tomorrow update ?
Yes there’s new challenges and events. Season 1 pass earn tokens to rank up. Halloween themed whole parks will be decorated accordingly and there will be I’m almost positive some very good Halloween clothing bundles in shop👀
Custom maps on pc would ho dummy
Also, the this skate shop needs to be an actual skate shop that we can walk into like ammunation from GTA
It is, I also think it's over-defended too though
If it’s not night time during this Halloween event they’ve lost it
Through the progression of the Standard and Premium skate.Pass tiers, you can earn up to 400 SVB to buy some gear in-game or to help purchase the next Season’s skate.Pass.
-# From: https://www.ea.com/games/skate/skate/news/skate-season-1
So I’m not sure how much is in the free tier vs premium, but the 400 is the combined total across both.
one thing i would fw is night skating
I could send you the road map if you’d like. In DM’s or I can tag you in skate screenshot
ok, so it is 400 for both normal and premium
Throwback to this random guy because he was on my mind again, this will eternally be funny to me
I said “guys you’re both right in a way” and he made a copypasta over it
Not wrong at all
their vagueness while they think it benefits them to keep goodwill it actually goes against them cause it doesn’t inform people that you can actually earn SVB (I assume, again cause they suck at clarity) for free
sweet, honestly hyped for some new content and challenges i was finally getting tired of the same challenges over and over again.
Which conveniently means that buying the $5 SVB bundle will leave you justtttt short to buy S2. 🫠
i sure hope they fixed the replay editor stuttering tho.
i know free tier has 6 tiles for money and premium has 2 more. idk if they made it all the same amount though
I'm more worried what the pass progression will be tied to.
Anyone knows when the new season timing?
season one tomorrow how are we feeling
that was my super facepalm moment here
Anyone know what time season 1 is releasing in Australia
why is the game so unfinished but there’s a fully fledged microtransaction system that works perfectly?
There’s a lot they’re adding overtime for early access season’s leading up until 2026 when they’re projected to launch the full release. Every season is considered a big update and lot more to do
because a shop is infinitely easier to make than a full game.
You guys think the battlepass will cost real money or like ingame cash, or if its gonna be a battle pass since ive not heard anything abt it
what a unique topic to discuss
did they ever confirm it was 10$ for the pass? or are we all just assuming
why is this repeated all the time like an actual counter point to something?
me too
We all are buddy
is there no info about when season 1 drops? i mean time not date ik its tmrw
Possibly they'll reveal the time with the patch notes later
It is 1000 SVB for the premium pass, it says in the blog at #game-announcements message
@shut bluff how much that in gbp?
they already HAVE the game, they just need to fix the bugs.. it’s not like they have to make the whole game over and over again to fix things.
because am not a coper idk
how much can we get with premium at all? or again no info?
bout 8 squid
they're talking about the game being unfinished (because it is). not bugs. bugs are being fixed tomorrow.
yall it's happening again, i'm not being sent into space i'm being sent into the fog :(
i prefer paying in octopus
hopefully 🤞
~£8 like Jon said
8 tentacle 🐙
not ten tentacles?
discount!
400 SVB and 74 cosmetics with premium, all the info is right there in the blog
#game-announcements message
first it was the fog, then it randomly changed to space then to fog again
Because they need money to develop the game and ea is broke asf
im at 7.1k ripscore
They’re just a small indie after all, they can’t help Full Circle that much, they have… I think $7 GDP?
small indie company ✌️
any guess on when we’ll get patch notes today?
EA literally got BOUGHT OUT for over 50Bil…
Between now and later, give or take
Half of that was in debt btw
They gave it to Pete parsons as a goodwill to Bungie
It went toward another car collection, but next time!!! For sure!!!
id be very surprised if they commited to a time for the update...wasnt the last update delayed?
even if it’s debt it’s still money in their pocket funding the game and other ea games
Add jugging to skate
-
They’re literally about to sell off the developers and cut costs with ai
-
That money is going to straight to higher ups be for real lol
i found a speed glitch that’s pretty consistent but it’s not incredibly fast it’s good for starting a line
do we know at what time season 1 will launch? like will it be before reset or at reset?
last patch was suppose to be last week yes but we’re still waiting. or at least I still am.
hopefully they use it to improve the game and no what you stated which is to cut costs because that just means the micro transactions are going to be worse down the line but tbh you got a point they are probably just going to pocket it lol
what is it lmk
Oh right, forgot to do this
Daily reminder to be kind to each other, we are all human!
QotD: would you rather live in a treehouse or a bunker, why? (Fully covered financially, for the sake of debate)
Yeah but complaining about micro transactions in a free game is crazy, which is my point
Anyone wanna do Co-op Trophies. PSN: Sir-Chimmers
Just hop on your board and spam a 360 no comply it’ll boost you once u do it right that’s it it’s that simple
True there’s games that make you buy them then spam you with even worse MTX
I wouldn’t care about microtransactions if they had stuff I actually want ngl I ain’t really tryna dress my guy in mini skirts and leggings
breh i cant even no comply talm bout spamming it 😢 😢
So if there is a girl skateboards will they add a boy skateboards too‽
you sound like a guy who skates better than tony hawk.. yo someone sign this guy
it’s easy hold X ( for playstation) or A ( for xbox) before you want to no comply then flick down on the right stick. and hold the left stick to the left if you’re regular and to the right if you’re goofy
huh
I can nollie varial flip
guys I did a 35 stair irl.. I’m just camera shy so no footy (short for footage)
❤️
Does anyone know if they’re fixing the story challenge bugs like I can’t do any story challenges for the first area and can’t even access the skate shop for the first area
check irl clips
guys I just fell in real life and "Gnarly Slam" popped up at the bottom of my IRL HUD with points, what do I do-
If we do a front salad, back salad, front blunt in a line, do we unlock Owen Wilson?
yes
😭
In an interview one of the girl skateboards guys said Owen Wilson could barely be bothered with the skateboarding stuff like he showed up to that shoot did his lines and hopped into his car and left
Why do you think Creature is getting added

Bc David gravette was a part of the game development
What is bro talkin bout
that’s actually insane bro hop back on the n64
if ur giving away money just hand it over to me boss man
For a game/chat where everyone is going crazy about unlocking cosmetics and all, I find the amount of answers to this disappointing.
Just saying.
I got six (6)Men Basketball Diamond pick to hit on send me a friend request or message
How are we doing folks?
its actually perfect for me. I was using an xbox elite 2 controller
Dawg nobody knows what you're talkin bout go to a basketball server
there's an annoying bug that keeps saying that I've been kicked from the server, I had to reload my game like 4 times
50$ down the drain for the founders pack
probably something involving betting
That's even more lame than a regular ahh scam
Who want this 4 man I got I’m almost certain it will hit as a power play send a reqst@everyone
😂 as if 2/3 of this server are even within legal gambling age
It’s a bot account
We know
And the bot appears to be tripping
Im ready for the notes
What is a milk worm?
what hour is updatd coming
It's not a thing it's an action
Guys why can I only Frontflip/Backflip with the skateboard if I jump from something? How do you do it on plain ground? I could do it easily in Skate 3.
tomorrow 1pm est
🪱?!?
wait are you MILKING the worm?!?😭
If you wammtt Greennmm senmmmddd friends requesttttttttt🔥🔥
Wsp
It's a state of being, not an action or a physical thing
get outta here chump
😂 Im getting massive meet the parents flash backs,
jus gimme the money bro
🤣 6 grands?!?! But I'm already hooked up with this one African prince I met through emails
I don't think there is quite enough ollie height to do a flip flat ground in Skate. In Skate 3 you could only do a flat ground flip in easy mode iirc
i think you can do it with a no comply, if you count moving
what in the Kik scam is this
Is this some weird scam they're peddling? Why aren't the banned?
mods are non-existent
Report lol
Because they haven't been critical of moderation yet
when does the upd drop
Tbh report that account to discord instead, it will get closed
So how do we feel about season passes being built around having to but the 1000 pack every season? I think it should be you buy the 1000 then you get enough to just pay for the 500 pack to get next pass
tomorrow
Tomorrow 1pm EST
tmr gang 🥹
Not 12 midnight?
so 10 mins? For Aus?
games gotta make money somehow, I don't mind it really
Everything they have done so far has been 6pm GMT on a Tuesday, soo I'd imagine theyd keep to that pattern tbh
Google says 6pm today uk time
Tuesday 1pm EST its only Monday Est
Its not horrible im just broke lmao but hopefully its worth it (also the update comes out on next daily reset i think)
for me it’s Tuesday
At least another 24 hours
Release it early, cowards
So it’ll be Wednesday for you when it comes out, Tuesday for the other side of the world since you’re in the future
Bout 5 am wednesday for you actually no wait your on weird timezone season ATM.
stayed up till 4am for nothin 😭
The first 5 person to send me a message will get a 6 men slip to win $10k+ tonight let's eat tonight
People we got 8 mins and we find out
we gotta wait one more DAY 😭
But moe probably this time tomorrow
Reported
So many people ill informed 🥀
Im in a party with a friedn of mine, but he is invisible, how do i fix this??
Brother... Is it the 7th? 🤣 Read the grind vol 6 😆 or flip to October on your calendar 😆
Oh lmao
Only thing happening today is a shop refresh
And patch notes
Patch notes in 5?
At least someone is paying attention...
Reading apparently isn’t a fundamental for discord peeps sometimes
, don't you eat? Or do other things, 🤔 /s
hopefully they added new challenges
Shop and challenge refresh and probably patch notes in 5 minutes
Update and season 1 probably in 24h +5 minutes.
Not that hard people.
On my lunch break, I’ll find something to eat lol
Im in a party with a friedn of mine, but he is invisible, how do i fix this??
🔥
bro why does my skate keep crashing
See that's 2 more things happening today, your lunch break and your work 😆
New weeklys drop tomorrow too can’t wait
can I get banned for skate glitches?
Sometimes spectating someone and then teleporting to them fixes that bug
I’ll be Level 10 market mile today finally ugh haha
Rest up for tomorrow homies! Lotta content in 24hrs🔥
Well since it just daily update bo7 beta here we go even though already maxed beta lvl it just gun lvls i be grinding now
Congrats! I’ll never reach it
I think that really depends on the kind of glitch and wether it's abused, I'd imagine something harmful to the rest of the players in your server could, but speed and stuff nah
Just to unlock a DIY box with different shades of the same thing 😔
Even speed glitch’s? Kk thx
you only get the content if you arent softlocked tho 😂
Long as you’re not reported, should be fine. But some break the game so watch out
It’s a grind for sure lmao @frail spear no you won’t if it’s exploitive and ruins experience for others then yes
as long as you don't ruin other players experience / get advantage on challenges i don't see why you would be banned
Yeah tbf tho, if you discover bugs always note them down and how, not only is it handy for remembering but it's helpful when helping devs knock out bad bugs
I feel they’d have a proper fix tomorrow don’t give your hopes up and wouldn’t another account give you a chance of getting in? I feel like softlock a PC problem rn, all my console buddies including myself haven’t had any problems
im not buying founders on another account
I love not even being able to play the game because I’m getting kicked from the server before I even join a game after I dropped 50$ on this
Finally some thrasher stuff just one thing but still
I bought that just for the title 😭
Really hoping for more ways to gain rip score in the new season. Even just the new challenges, there’s just such a slog once you hit like 5/6k rip score and up :/
do yous think skate will remove the speed glitches?
do we think the levels in the areas are going to reset with the update? Or will they add more levels to get?
For what purpose though?
Ahhh….got you bro…that sucks…Just hope tomorrow or see where everyone posting for help from the devs at🤷♂️
Did we get a refresh?
I’ll be honest a couple of them look like they we added in on purpose
I’m on console and i’ve been soft locked since day 2 of release, it never registered I completed finer grind and haven’t been able to progress since
For my platinum trophy lmao but also I feel like there’s a very small reward for completing challenges once you max out everything where it should be opposite.
Could someone please tell me when Season 1 will be released tomorrow? I mean, what time? I'm from Germany, so it's European time.
Imo ripscore should just be removed lol, it does nothing
Are we gonna have multiple costumes available tmr or no
Dang that’s honestly the worst bro
Around 1pm est
7pm for you, assuming you’re 6hrs ahead if Germany has roughly the same time all round
I totally agree but now I have to care so I can hit 100% 🙃
ive been softlocked since day one i cant do any missions im stuck at the beginning of the city
who’s got the shop refresh screenshots 👀
Facts drop them
If it helps, its currently 7pm:04 here
Man this sucks I’m sorry, atleast you can still skate around tho I understand the feeling tho
So 7pm for you tomorrow will be the update
i can show u in dms
1pm for me eastern time I think
Alright thank you
yea man atleast i can do the bare minimum in a game i paid for and have been waiting 5 years for 😂
is shop refresh goated or nah
Its okay if you are a collector for dances they did add a thrasher shirt in pink
If it's any consolation, the missions and challenges aren't very good and the free skating is significantly more fun, but I get it, hopefully fixed tomorrow for you
update delayed ?
zero daily tasks for why
preciate it
I have dailies, might need to restart your game
Not trying to sound like a ahh but you could just make another account until a proper fix tomorrow and then switch back over to your founder account. It happens I was locked from Rainbow Six Siege when I bought it on PS4 I think I bought the edition that included the year pass and I could never access it until year later. I just took a deep breath and made another account was able to gameshare siege from that account
are they gonna drop patch notes td or tmr?
can u fall from any height as long as u hit a ramp?
check newest reddit post on r/skateea
Should be today for patch notes
Servers are up correct ?
yeah I was gonna try anyway but thanks for the response
Depends on how sharp the ramp curves. But generally yes
i wanna do missions theres no point in progressing on a temporary account
welp replay editor still gonna have the stutter tomorrow
i made an alt account 3 weeks ago. at this point there’s no point in making one tbh
Black n white half cabs are the only good item pink vans shirt too but its tight fit
Sounds like people stuck on grom island still will be, brutal
Then i’d be further on an alt i’d be trashing instead of on a main I have all the progress on, they should just fix what needs to be fixed I know they’re doing their best though
Everyone here waiting on the patch notes
Fr everything else bunz
Just read em, can see them on #reddit-feed
They should make more baggy instead of chinos and tight fit imo some sweatpant joggers as well
we are not getting tutorial island until like 4 months
They working on it my softlock got fixed last week sadly i got 4 broken achievements but don't think I'll bother them with that atm I'm sure there aware of minor bugs like that too
Bro fr like some baggy Ed Hardy’s
ok garmin
i need baggy balenciaga double waist sweatpants with chrome hearts tank tops and rick owens vans
Here's the patch notes:
Im hoping they get it in the update today cuz ive been locked for a while
give me loose fitting sweatpants
the Chinos are basically sweat pants to me
because those DO NOT look like Chinos
Idk the rolled up leg pmo sometimes 😭
skate devs made clothes my parents want me to wear
I keep getting black screen and sent back to title
hope so but dont put to much pressure on it the soft lock was living in my head rent free since day 1 and i burned through them in like an hr tops they'll fix it tho think they just fixing it in waves
It happens I was locked from Rainbow Six Siege when I bought it on PS4 I think I bought the edition that included the year pass and I could never access it until year later. I just took a deep breath and made another account was able to gameshare siege from that account. That siege account became my main later on and the original/old account I just gave it to my wife so she can play rank with me. But yeah just sharing my suggestion
By reading the patch notes, those still stuck on the island tutorial will still be stuck tomorrow on the new season. That’s a little disheartening to read as it’s been almost a month
There better be a creature hoodie i will literally never take it off
nah but its okay tho cause we have rainbow leggings and animal costumes coming in the battle pass
Who wanna grind these challs
Can anyone do a throwdown w/ me
to be fair the outfits and bug fix teams are seperate im okay with goofy things but they really shoulda fixed that for everyone before season 1 its sad to hear people gonna be stuck on tut island on the content drop
You trolling or actually fr?
It's fr, still working on fixing it, but it's not fixed yet unfortunately
No troll friend
Being fr, its still not fixed
KNOWN ISSUES STILL BEING WORKED ON
We are tracking the following Known Issues as well. This is not an exhaustive list, and we’ll keep you updated as more trending issues are tracked.
Stuck on Isle of Grom
We pushed out a fix to stop the issue from occurring. However, this didn’t retroactively fix those in this state and we’re working to get the ferry running for those still stuck as soon as possible.
Yk that like alot of girls wear leggings when skating lol 90 percent of clips I see they're in leggings the animal costumes are goofy but let's relax cause before this if you were a girl playing the game you just had to be a tomboy theres plenty of clothes for normal dudes to wear in this
can't they just make a new account?
i dont know any girls that would wear rolled up vibrant rainbow leggings 😭 and i was js making a lil joke im not complaning ab female clothes
That’d defeat the purpose in a way cause you’d have to link a brand new ea account etc which you can’t cross progress with
yes but it's not fair to ask people to do so when there's content you can pay for before they fixed my softlock I spent money on the game before realising I was stuck lmaoo
What time does the season 1 drop
Also some people have ea accounts older than the majority of the playerbase lol, won't wanna make a new one over a bug
1pm EST tomorrow
I made an account 3 weeks ago. At this point I’d like to progress on my main account
They should just add a button to move away from grom or back in the pause menu like in old builds... Why is it so hard to realise, they litterally had a way to move people and it's gone
Do we have an hour for the update and saison 1 ?
Nah waiting for next grind
I’m curious about these skater customization changes
Tattoos
anyone down to do the daily challenges w me ?
No longer EA now as of recently but I know exactly what you mean I opened my eyes after Madden 22. Literally just a roster update game and don’t get me started with the tiny portion of new content. Like wow we added more sweat. Hopefully Saudi Arabian company doesn’t blow up the EA games and instead instead make a bomb dropping content and actually what the people want. @high raptor
Wait pad hoppers been disabled because of the lamp post?! 😭 That was one of the best challenges imo, actually had to try more than once
