general-discussion

[strong ember]

Ahh al. Thx for clarifying

[frozen kelp]

I wnat to know so bad who the pros are

[dull pilot]

Lil bit. Scheduling a session with a tattoo artist to get the logo inked.

[vague arch]

this is sarcasm btw mods pls dont ban me 😭😭

[candid lagoon]

Yeah, you must like the game just a little bit, then

[dull pilot]

What do you mean?

[rocky crescent]

[brittle kite]

max goof

[maiden lava]

I’m definitely not famous. 😄

[plush gorge]

helix snake should be on there

[marble tiger]

i should be on there

[plush gorge]

😭

[vague arch]

hes in the server??

[plush gorge]

yes

[strong ember]

Yup

[frozen kelp]

Yes

[vague arch]

oh no wayyy i love his content

[brittle kite]

I own a physical copy of skate 3 for the x360 and the ps3, does this make me famous

[errant copper]

It makes you an owner of Skate 3. Congrats!

[brittle kite]

two copies allows me to skate twice as hard

[flint swift]

i played skate it on the wii, does that make me depressed?

[marble tiger]

im really hoping to see some DOOM in the new skate. soundtrack

[candid lagoon]

I just checked your Twitch. Your 16 followers beg to differ.

[unique nebula]

*MF DOOM

[candid lagoon]

lmao

[dull pilot]

Oh. We tweeted out the Board Room announce. It’s a chat with some big details featuring Full Circle devs. Make sure to tune in.

[strong ember]

MF DOOM while skating🫡

[orchid wolf]

@dull pilot

[maiden lava]

I’m not a liar!

[marble tiger]

yes i know, metal fingers or metal face, rest up brother

[wraith hamlet]

where?

[slow lance]

Probably on twitter

[orchid wolf]

@maiden lava

[dull pilot]

We’ll share the link when it’s live.

[candid lagoon]

is the word denoting someone's large amount of clout automodded here?

[dull pilot]

What?

[candid lagoon]

can't send messages that have that word in it lmao

[frozen kelp]

What is a board room

[untold karma]

a room with boards

[dull pilot]

Scroll up. I literally just explained it.

[candid lagoon]

sometimes when I type a word Discord shakes instead of sending the message

[frozen kelp]

Thanks

[unique wharf]

oh so that's what it is

[untold karma]

😂😂

[brittle kite]

I wonder if skate 4 will feature low-res dr pepper ads, like skate 3 did

[candid lagoon]

so I assume that's preventative measure to reduce spam?

[frozen kelp]

Ohh

[errant copper]

Where people of a board meet to discuss. The managers of a company or organization kind of board.

[flint swift]

will the game have skateboard?

[candid lagoon]

wait nvm I just have slowmode on

[marble tiger]

and human-like slabs of meat

[untold karma]

of course not!

[wraith hamlet]

hoping

[dull pilot]

There’s a cool down. To avoid spam and whatnot.

[brittle kite]

hell yeah!!

[candid lagoon]

I am slow. Like the slowmode :> @dull pilot

[flint swift]

i hope the game have more than two skateboard

[errant copper]

Speaking of slow, if there's one thing this game needs to pull off right... It's the sense of speed.

[plush gorge]

was there longboards in the video yesterday?

[flint swift]

like speed wobbles?

[brittle kite]

I hope the game will feature other EA franchises, I wanna skate around like an asari

[dull pilot]

Nope.

[plush gorge]

fair enough

[marble tiger]

oh my god, plants vs zombies cameos in skate.

[brittle kite]

that'd probably work lol

[wraith hamlet]

new board in game?

[dull pilot]

Cross IP stuff would be cool. Like Isaac Clarke from Dead Space, etc.

[brittle kite]

skating around as a zombie, crashing and having body parts fly around

[errant copper]

You know what I mean. Hit a downhill road, and you hear the wind pick up like crazy, the cameraman trying hard to keep up... Your controller vibrating in a quick rhythm...

[wraith hamlet]

we already have isaac clarke lol

[noble nymph]

do you guys think we'll get all of the other maps ported over into skate.? itd make sense since its just called skate. and not skate 4. Sorta like a final hoorah.

[frozen kelp]

Like a zombie of plants vs zombies

[dull pilot]

I know. I was stating that as an example of what has already been done.

[flint swift]

I’m excited to see what the actual in-game camera looks like, what settings are available, etc.

[brittle kite]

I was thinking about the dead space dude as well, or maybe a plumbob dude from sims

[wraith hamlet]

or a reboot not a sequel

[errant copper]

We got Isaac, now get Faith in

[slow lance]

I just hope the villain from the Disney Channel original movie Brink is in the game

[plush gorge]

yeah the map looks pretty dope so I don't really mind not having the old ones

[vale anchor]

I'd love to see some star wars inspired stuff if the license from fallen order can be shared a little

[noble nymph]

i want the death cloud from twitches but i can understand brink

[candid lagoon]

really hoping they bring the insane speed glitch as an intentional feature but don't necessarily design the game around it, if that makes sense?

[dull pilot]

I love Mirror’s Edge and Faith.

[brittle kite]

oh man faith would work so well

[errant copper]

Mirror's Edge was a dream come true of a game, I tell ya

[flint swift]

The new traversal would tie that in so well

[humble hedge]

Do we know if skate 4 will be on switch?

[vale anchor]

Eye tattoos!

[dull pilot]

Especially with the running around!

[wraith hamlet]

huh?!

[frozen kelp]

I completed catalust such an underrated gane

[willow storm]

The sign up is just for the sign up and no playtest have started, correct?

[errant copper]

You just read my mind like a book, an open one at that

[vale anchor]

Mirrors edge...

[dull pilot]

Such a good game. Great story.

[candid lagoon]

No confirmed platforms yet outside of PC I believe cause PCs where the beta sign up is on iirc

[noble nymph]

if tha game has ample mod support we could get master chief hitting varials

[brittle kite]

Technically Shaquille O'Neal counts as an EA character? He'd probably be down for it

[frozen kelp]

Yeah, it needs to have more reconigtion

[noble nymph]

mod support would make the game be UNABLE to die, like legit.

[plush gorge]

Shaquille O'Neal would be an insane replacement for coach frank

[errant copper]

Reminds me of the time I made a skater sort of based on Connors in Skate 3... Named her Genesis.

Looked nothing like her.

[marble tiger]

obama in skate

[brittle kite]

that could really work well - dude's basically an actor anyways

[noble nymph]

YOOO

[frozen kelp]

It would ve pretty expensive to bring him into the game

[frozen kelp]

Be

[errant copper]

Had her skating Enjoi, like everyone in my crew did

[flint swift]

if I could skate as a piece of meat in 2010, I should be able to skate as Shaq

[brittle kite]

🤷‍♂️ EA money tho

[marble tiger]

is the game going to be free to play?

[noble nymph]

nah i want good ol coach frank man, all old and stuff, hes in a wheelchair but hes hitting smiths on the retirement home crubs

[brittle kite]

could a skateboard hold the weight of shaq tho

[frozen kelp]

I dont think so

[flint swift]

Shaq gets a super size skateboard

[marble tiger]

thank god

[brittle kite]

lol

[errant copper]

Remember - Shaq is a person, a sentient human being with the option to say no ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[woeful elbow]

Tyler the creator would fit better tho

[frozen kelp]

Its going to ve at least 30 bucks

[maiden lava]

He needs a Powell Flight

[noble nymph]

you guys wanting to replace coach frank are LAME

[scenic gull]

sematary would b a better replacement

[frozen kelp]

Be

[plush gorge]

true, but I don't think he got enough old man vibe

[brittle kite]

I don't want to replace him I want shaq

[wraith hamlet]

shaq should have bouncy physics like big black

[brittle kite]

what

[plush gorge]

an old guy teaching you how to skate is just too good

no matter who they are

[frozen kelp]

I need connor mcgregor as a coach

[errant copper]

What even was Jason Lee's latest acting credit...?

[untold karma]

will skate 4 be on PC?

[wraith hamlet]

yes

[untold karma]

wicked

[vague arch]

mid the creator

[brittle kite]

2021, The Harper House

[untold karma]

horrid take

[scenic gull]

if theres microtransactions i am killing myself

[woeful elbow]

Damn L

[vale anchor]

I almost got to see Shaq the other day. Turns out he was casually shopping at the mall near me while I was there, same store too. By the time we found out and went to see if he was still there, found out he had just drove away, and the truck he was in, was the one I insulted for taking up 4 parking spots and blocking the tree I wanted to park under 😂

[wraith hamlet]

dlc?

[untold karma]

LMAOOO

[scenic gull]

no like classic ea putting in coin packs

[celest oak]

Why not Hank Hill.

[brittle kite]

missed your chance to ask him if he was down for skate 4

[errant copper]

At least you had the opportunity to insult his truck

[vague arch]

hes just overhyped and his music is way to overrated imo

[wraith hamlet]

like v-bucks?!?!?!

[scenic gull]

yes

[woeful elbow]

L bro

[vague arch]

not bad by any means tho

[vale anchor]

Right? That was first thing I'd ask if I got the chance

[slow lance]

Hank Hill as the store clerk would be good. Selling skateboards and skateboard accessoriess

[untold karma]

Igor was like number one for, how long?

[celest oak]

S(kate)-Bucks.

[scenic gull]

or if they do the like "normal, silver, gold" packages for the games

[vague arch]

thats crazy

[plush gorge]

there probably will, but it does seem like ea is learning how to properly do microtransactions recently, so maybe it will be alright 🤷

[brittle kite]

does activision have tony hawk exclusivity?

[woeful elbow]

listen to Wolf, personally my fav album from him

[vague arch]

sales ≠ quality of music

[scenic gull]

when did they ever learn to do this

[vale anchor]

Considering it holds his name, it's a safe bet

[vague arch]

thats a dub fr i like wolf

[maiden lava]

Man Bird Pro Skater

[untold karma]

thats not totally correct

[plush gorge]

they haven't done it yet, but it seems they are learning is what I mean

[celest oak]

John Crow Pro Skater.

[marble tiger]

i dont want any microtransactions, i get that the company needs MORE MONEY, the transactions that make the game progress quicker are just so dumb because it doesnt even let players play the game and instead buy their way through

[untold karma]

if his music is that good, a lot of people will buy it

[woeful elbow]

btw what is that board room that skate. Tweet about? Ion know shi

[maiden lava]

Pro might allude they’re still talking about Tony. Would have to be John Eagle Aspiring Skater

[untold karma]

@woeful elbow

[woeful elbow]

Thanks

[errant copper]

Thomas Crow Amateur Scooter

[celest oak]

LOL.

[woeful elbow]

I need some Tyler and animal collective on the soundtrack fr

[untold karma]

Richard Lizard Semi-Okay Biking

[brittle kite]

Toby Harrier Hobbyist Walker

[maiden lava]

I’d buy all these versions of the game

[celest oak]

I want some IDLES and songs from Dangerdoom.

[plush gorge]

don't encourage it

[maiden lava]

harrier 😂

[brittle kite]

with a twist: toby's an invalid

[woeful elbow]

Big dub idles

[untold karma]

NO. WAY.

[silent geyser]

Tommy falcon mediocre speed walker

[woeful elbow]

Seeing them on November hyped as hell

[untold karma]

this one 😂😂😂

[celest oak]

Yoooo that’s sick.

[errant copper]

Aaron Marsupial Enthusiast Jockey

[brittle kite]

oh man what if we can get a wheelchair guy in skate 4

[silent geyser]

neeed some odd future on the sound track

[plush gorge]

psychedelic porn crumpets would fit into the game

[woeful elbow]

Yeah bro I missed two opportunities early this year but this time I need it to go. Also black midi and viagra boys two days before. I’m eating good on November tho

[celest oak]

That’s awesome!

[woeful elbow]

What song from idles would you put on the soundtrack?

[errant copper]

Call me crazy, but...

||House music in Skate.||

[brittle kite]

@dull pilot you know a bit about need for speed right, do you think we could convince EA to add ongoing street races to skate 4 so we can get run over with style

[celest oak]

Hmmmm, probably I’m Scum or Television.

[woeful elbow]

Yeah I would fw that, some keinemusik type stuff

[plush gorge]

I'd rather it fit the vibe of the earlier games for nostalgia reasons

[errant copper]

Well yeah, of course - but it is a thought :P

[plush gorge]

true

[woeful elbow]

W

[scenic gull]

noise or haunted mound would go hard

[celest oak]

Both from the same album but probably my favorite songs of theirs.

[errant copper]

If I had to pick a specific house music era for the game... I'd go 80's

[vale anchor]

Imagine calling in a car because you need a skitch somewhere and that's your driver

[brittle kite]

"I drive"

[errant copper]

And Reda's driving the car with a camera in his hand

[brittle kite]

and then you fly through a corner at 200km/h

[vale anchor]

Who would need a speed glitch then lol

[woeful elbow]

I’m Scum it is awesome, lately I’ve listening a lot to Mr. Motivator and Mother

[celest oak]

Nahhh, Reda’s the type of guy to have a 4K 60fps dash cam.

[errant copper]

Them San Van drivers destroy the gas pedal, I tell ya

[celest oak]

Honestly I don’t think they have a single song that I don’t like.

[woeful elbow]

Fr they are one of the best bands rn

[celest oak]

Totally.

[woeful elbow]

Also Rottweiler bro that song goes so hard

[lethal notch]

Drive 60 in a school zone

[celest oak]

Also good.

[slow lance]

I heard that the loading screen is Kamasi Washington playing while you ride down in an elevator to street level

[celest oak]

What do you guys think the story mode will be like?

[errant copper]

The Legend returns?

[sand anvil]

Ideally it'll be back to "Small time skater wants to make it big"

[errant copper]

...Nah, The Legend already made it

[frozen kelp]

Yo imagine a subway system

[orchid wolf]

What a asko of server

[celest oak]

I kinda hope it’s just friends who skate and they sign up for competitions and stuff, trying to make it big. Pretty much the same as Skate 1.

[sand anvil]

Yeah but I'm pretty sure this is a reboot so it'd make sense

[sand anvil]

Yeah exactly, I wouldn't be mad about starting fresh

[celest oak]

I’d be fine with it.

[slow lance]

The other day I thought the chorizo had cute packaging saying "I am chorizo" but it turned out to just be Soy Chorizo

[errant copper]

All good with that, as long as we get Silent Assassin #2

[silent geyser]

yall think day old sushi will give me food poisoning?

[scenic gull]

ping

[celest oak]

Wait, imagine that your The Legend’s nephew who died while skating (that’s if the death theory is true) and it inspires you start trying to get famous for skating, just like his uncle.

[plush gorge]

I hope it's funny

[celest oak]

(The uncle died, not the nephew)

[slow lance]

Bruja, you silly goose. They just don't support other languages right now probably because they have no fluent speakers to monitor it

[sand anvil]

You know, that rumor doesn't NOT make sense tbh

[orchid wolf]

@slow lance how are u . ?

[errant copper]

Too farfetched for me - I'd like to think my Legend had no known family tree, then went radio silent (pun may be intended)

[slow lance]

I'm lovely

[celest oak]

I’m not saying it does, but that’s just my theory for what the game would be like if that theory was true.

[lone mason]

english

[orchid wolf]

Bla bla

[errant copper]

I don't wanna know about the fate of my Legend, nobody likes to have their own character get killed off

[scenic gull]

Is it in the discord?

[sand anvil]

I mean look at how Skate 3 started though, it makes sense

[celest oak]

Yeah…

[errant copper]

The Legend failing to jump the Shark is a prime example of him not being able to die

[celest oak]

He also got hit by a bus.

[errant copper]

Can't forget the-- yeah

[sand anvil]

The shark jump is what killed him based on the theory that was going around

[slow lance]

I think the legend is just part cat. Nine lives and all

[celest oak]

Lol.

[errant copper]

But he didn't die, he was just in slight pain

[sly smelt]

thus but a scratch

[celest oak]

I gotta head out. Nice talking people.

[slow lance]

Bye you scoundrel

[errant copper]

Any kind of violence dealt to the Legend is quite simply, nothing more than a quick pinch

[scenic gull]

The legend literally jumps off buildings on purpose for fun and is fine

[celest oak]

Bye you dogman.

[orchid wolf]

@celest oak

[sand anvil]

peace out Scoundral

[sly smelt]

purple nurple if even

[errant copper]

Doesn't feel like a thing to him

[orchid wolf]

🛑

[solar inlet]

How will “The Board Room” work. Will it be a livestream?

[errant copper]

He just teleports on the other side of a building and acts like nothing happened.

[orchid wolf]

Skate 3 is the Best Game ever made

[sand anvil]

Him dying and Carverton being his heaven makes sense though when you factor in the fact that you can spawn things in the world randomly lol

[sly smelt]

he trys to do s kickflip out of a plain and hits the ground so hard it leaves a bruise

[errant copper]

Nah, he's just a demigod in secret

[sly smelt]

👀

[scenic gull]

Fabio died

[sand anvil]

That he did... Poor kid only got to be in one game

[scenic gull]

He was in skate 3

[sly smelt]

Was this all in the literal lore of skate 1,2, and 3 or is it like a fan made sorta thing

[scenic gull]

There is a race in skate 2 called the Fabio memorial race

[errant copper]

Fabio's appearance was non-canon in 3, apparently

[sand anvil]

Only for freeskate and isn't canon

[scenic gull]

I don't think Skate 3 is in heaven
I think the Skate series is in a loose reality

[sly smelt]

so certain things go in line with it all and some are more added in as extras sorta?

[errant copper]

Well yeah, everyone's aware they're in a video game

[scenic gull]

Like they regularly mention it's a video game in the contests

[wraith hamlet]

cant wait for this game

[sly smelt]

fr

[scenic gull]

Is the board room a discord thing?

[sly smelt]

i think so

[errant copper]

Off-screen, pro skaters are flying on top of buildings by trying to break the physics engine

...and failing, getting trapped beneath the ground

[tall falcon]

2 pings for Instagram posts? 👀

[sand anvil]

First thing I'm doing once I get my hands on the game, be it the pre-pre-pre-alpha or full release, is trying all the glitches I know so far lol

[wraith hamlet]

imagine that first part of the trailer was mobile version lol

[gusty jungle]

i signed up for play testing and it keeps giving me an error can someone help?

[acoustic dock]

same here

[light cloud]

are the skate. deck going to be available for sale or just through giveaways?

[weary plume]

i just want to thank the devs and EA for listening to the community and making a new skate game. I can’t believe this is actually happening it looks so good already just from the alpha footage

[gusty jungle]

same fr

[timber oak]

No sales planned currently

[stable jetty]

is there anything about when we will be told if we are in playtesting

[modest moat]

Ayo the free running stuff looks awesome

[light cloud]

all i can do is just pray

[gusty jungle]

how can we get past the error to get the playtesting? i’m just genuinely confused

[timber oak]

You’d get an email

[stable jetty]

already?

[weary plume]

hopefully on the 14th when they talk more about it

[timber oak]

no, just when you’re in

as a notification

[gusty jungle]

like i keep getting “error. sorry, something has gone wrong. please try again later.”

[timber oak]

Not sure, try a different browser maybe?

[scenic gull]

I'm just happy that the devs are actually living up to the transparency promise

I half thought it was just gonna be a lie for marketing reasons

[stable jetty]

is it normal that everytime i go through the playtest signup link i have to do it again even though im signed in on the same account/

[acoustic dock]

mine says that, but above it says im in

[gusty jungle]

i’ve tried 2 different browsers, i’ve used safari and google chrome so far.

[modest moat]

I don’t know if it’s a stretch, but what if they added like vaults and stuff for the free running. I know it’s a skate game, but I feel like it’s be a cool element if they implemented it with running from security (if they add security)

[gusty jungle]

yes it says success in the URL though. im not sure if that means it worked or not?

[weary plume]

yeah that’s happened to me multiple times

[gilded finch]

skate 2 had restricted areas that security would chase you if im remembering correctly

[sand anvil]

You are, Mongo Corp

[acoustic dock]

I tried it again, and it worked

[stable jetty]

so it still means i am signed up right?

[unique nebula]

Ladies and gentlemen, presenting the weekend.

[gusty jungle]

oh yes same

[weary plume]

yeah idk why it makes you redo it but if you did it once you’re signed in

[gusty jungle]

thank god i got worried 😂😂😂

[sand anvil]

Man, I'm not a fan of The Weekend though... Can I swap my tickets out for a better artist?

[stable jetty]

ok ty

[unique nebula]

Yep hold on. Instead you get the weekday

[dull pilot]

You only have to do it once. That might be why you’re getting the error.

[gilded finch]

its the weekend and america day on monday

[light cloud]

can i get a waffle instead of a ticket?

[unique nebula]

Sorry only pancakes here

[light cloud]

that works

[unique nebula]

Chocolate chip?

[light cloud]

yes

[acoustic dock]

blueberry?

[gilded finch]

is their going to be a service exclusivity on pc or is the project to far out to say

[violet panther]

Wait u have to send ur P O box if u win a deck right ?

[heady lintel]

chocolate pringle

[acoustic dock]

Will playtesting be multiplayer?

[hollow patrol]

as somebody who has no idea, yes

[unique nebula]

Source: me

[sharp depot]

i feel like if you have a home address they would take that too but dont quote me on that

[hollow patrol]

dude trust me

[acoustic dock]

I trust you random person, with my life

[heady lintel]

most definitely . as a person with no home and family

[light cloud]

playtesting will also give 10000 vbucks source: its real i swear

[hollow patrol]

im not a random person, im the best keyboard skate. player

[acoustic dock]

screw that lol

[hollow patrol]

*coming soon™️

[acoustic dock]

really? you got a youtube?

[violet panther]

K I wondering cuz my moms very overprotective

[gilded finch]

just heard from myself, playtesting gives you free warehouse irl and a workshop to make your very own skatepark

[light cloud]

i will use a skateboard as the controller

[hollow patrol]

no, im just also the best kb player in another controller dominated game

[sharp depot]

if its an issue then just mail it to a friends house and pick it up there

[sand anvil]

You also have to be old enough to enter

[heady lintel]

im so curious when the playtests are gonna go online for us

[dull pilot]

No PO Boxes. Home address.

[violet panther]

Ah ok

[acoustic dock]

Sooner or later, Whenever theyre ready ill be happy

[supple stream]

im just so excited for another skate i still play skate 3 weekly

[acoustic dock]

sooner the better though

[heady lintel]

and im curious if its the pre pre alpha graphics or the pre pre pre alpha graphics

[acoustic dock]

I just want to test the mechanics, not worried about graphics one bit

[dull pilot]

At :33 it says “where we were, where we are, where we’re going”. We are currently at the “where we are” stage. Focusing on gameplay to get it right.

[light cloud]

the only thing textured is the meat man and the board is just a green box and everything else is just dev_texture

[acoustic dock]

okay thank you. I can't wait to try it out and give some feedback

[dull pilot]

Awesome!

[sharp depot]

4k ultra hd meat man, everything else is the pink black checkerboard pattern

[light cloud]

precisely

[acoustic dock]

Youre the CM foor 2 of my favorite games. Thats insane

[dull pilot]

I used to be the CM for Battlefield too.

[sharp depot]

you mad man

[acoustic dock]

Really? Why not anymore?

[dull pilot]

And it is insane. I still can’t believe - after 12 years - I get to do this for work.

[acoustic dock]

Living the dream man, hook it up with a job

[dull pilot]

I worked on BF for 9 years. Wanted to try something different.

[violet panther]

Battlefield is awesome

[maiden lava]

Glad youre on Skate!

[dull pilot]

https://jobs.ea.com

[dull pilot]

Me too. Every day!

[acoustic dock]

Wow, thank you for putting effort into these games. We enjoy them a;;

[acoustic dock]

I'll apply, put the good word in for me

[heady lintel]

we all are stoked and cant appreciate you guys enough for putting this much effort for this game bro. i just want to make sure you guys know, how many people your making happy. so epic.

[sharp depot]

yea i gotchu, literally backbone of the entire project right here

[heady lintel]

was for braddock lmao

[acoustic dock]

Do ya'll provide training?

[dull pilot]

Of course.

[heady lintel]

pinged the wrong guy lol

[sharp depot]

kinda figured

[eager hollow]

Will they add guards like they had in Skate 2?

[stable jetty]

chase the bag and the dream go for the job

[acoustic dock]

awesome, I am happy to hear. Any recommended positions?

[sand anvil]

If y'all ever get some VA positions open lemme know lol

[dull pilot]

Find something you love. I love helping people, making friends, and talking. So … this role worked out for me.

[heady lintel]

what is CM mean btw

[acoustic dock]

I'm still looking man, I enjoy art, math, and playing video games.

[stable jetty]

skate diuscord server is a top tier discord server i cant lie everyone is so chill

haha

[eager hollow]

CM means Community Manager

[heady lintel]

ahh letsgo

[eager hollow]

I really hope they have guards in Skate 4 like they did in Skate 2.

[acoustic dock]

me too, and big black (rest in peace)

[native thunder]

yeah every other big game public discord server is just toxic from my experience

[tribal notch]

I have never had that happened to me tbh

[sand anvil]

Well the Skate. community is just built different

[errant copper]

There's tons of lax official video game servers, you just gotta know where to look

[heady lintel]

i wanna sit with coach frank on the dinner table talking about how good life was back in 2010.

[stable jetty]

depends on teh game aswell

[frozen kelp]

Nice carvethron refrence on BF 2042

[native thunder]

yeah, bit of exaggeration but a lot are either stupid, toxic or both, there are a few good ones tho

[sharp depot]

if youre looking for bottom of the barrel, try the league of legends one tho

[errant copper]

From yesterday when I arrived, this server seems pretty good

[native thunder]

god no

[sharp depot]

gotta keep it perma muted, only had it for emotes when i had nitro xD

[sly wing]

https://tenor.com/view/daydream-alice-wonderland-listening-smile-gif-5945850

Just daydreaming about how awesome the new mega ramp will be

[sand anvil]

Or, hear me out, I'll keep what little sanity I have left lol

[heady lintel]

imagine doing ollies in skate 4

[sharp depot]

smart choice

[sand anvil]

Can we please not start this again? It was only mediocrely funny yesterday

[sharp depot]

lmaoo what happened yesterday

[sly wing]

I really do hope they keep a similar control scheme and just expand on it

[heady lintel]

LMAO

[hollow patrol]

ok now imagine someone in a dragon mascot suit doing a backflip (:

[heady lintel]

this joke will never end until the game actually comes out

[sand anvil]

WHOLE day was pretty much just people saying "They should add insert features that have been well established since the beginning or simple trick here in the next game!"

[hollow patrol]

its almost like #skate-ideas-threads-archived doesnt exist

[stable jetty]

basically stuff like they should add walking into skate 4

[sharp depot]

they should really add a skate idea thread for the next game so we can give them ideas tbh

[sand anvil]

ThEy ShOuLd AdD sKaTeBoArDs In ThE nExT gAmE

[heady lintel]

i really do hope walking is a thing in this game.

[stable jetty]

it would be industry changing if they were to implement it

[sharp depot]

imagine what could happen if they added running tho 👀

[gilded finch]

if freerunning is coming to skate when will we see bmx

[heady lintel]

imagine you could wall run in skate 4 hahaha thats not gonna happen tho XD. right?

[sand anvil]

Forerunning? It's a Halo game now? lmfao

[sharp depot]

bro thats about as farfetched as asking for jumping lollll

[heady lintel]

jokes aside did you guys saw the ground slide in the trailer. so many people missed out. its really hidden tho.

[sharp depot]

💀

[native thunder]

they should tho, it'd be sick

[heady lintel]

wait i try to find the timestamp

[sharp depot]

yall think we are gonna be able to ride skateboards if they add them or nah

[heady lintel]

its 0:51

[native thunder]

I think they should just purely be cosmetic

and 50 bucks for 1

[gilded finch]

in the mocap trailer one of the actors broke their board, its time for us to be able to break our boards

[native thunder]

real money

[sand anvil]

I see someone took a Riot Game's Class of Microtransactions

[heady lintel]

0:51 you can see someone sliding on the left

[timber oak]

feature request: skateboards are disabled while wearing thrasher merch

[sharp depot]

😭

[native thunder]

lmao

[sand anvil]

lol feature request: Band tees in the game, and NPCs will always come up to you and ask you to name 5 songs. 10 if you're playing as a female character

[celest oak]

Imagine our boards can snap and then we have to buy the game again 😭

[native thunder]

if you name any songs other than the band's most obscure songs they get angry at you for being a fake fan

[sand anvil]

All songs must be off the band's first EP from before they even had their current band name

[sharp depot]

and then they bring back the taser feature and tase you if youre wrong 💀💀

[eager hollow]

Imagine if we had a turf battle with another skater crew

[atomic zephyr]

Damn y’all might as well be in charge of the game development 😭

[sharp depot]

nahh thats not a bad idea but hear me out on this one, a gamemode where you try and break the most bones and get a high score

[celest oak]

So like that one mode from THPS?

[native thunder]

please stop if we keep suggesting rubbish it'll be added

[sand anvil]

Ooh reminiscent of Clan Battles from CoD Ghosts?

[gilded finch]

make a rng system that makes a random ledge waxed to hell that causes you to bail so matter what

[eager hollow]

Yes

[atomic zephyr]

Hall of meat duh

[native thunder]

add homes and the potential to be mugged so you have to slowly walk home in shame

[sharp depot]

welcome to r/woosh

[heady lintel]

wait the playtest goes live on july 5? lots of people saying that idk.

[atomic zephyr]

There’s too much dumbassery going on I couldn’t tell if you were serious or not 😭

[scenic gull]

fr

[sand anvil]

Remember, if you didn't see it in #announcements don't believe it

[atomic zephyr]

I hope they bring back the feature where you can breakoff skate stoppers n stuff

[sharp depot]

💀 i thought you were messing around too since we had spot battles and thats basically turf battles renamed

[heady lintel]

alright gotchu.

[atomic zephyr]

Yea I was bout to say someone said that 😭

[eager hollow]

lol

[celest oak]

Ohhhh, I get this now, lol, I thought you meant like that mode from THPS where everyone is trying to make the parts of the park their color.

[scenic gull]

imagine if we could skate

[sharp depot]

cmon lets be realistic here

[sand anvil]

lmfao here's a good one, you have to prove you can do tricks IRL to do them in the game

[solid plaza]

No lie seeing the pride decks makes me want to have a trans flag skateboard

[scenic gull]

FR

id rock a trans flag board 24/7

[wild breach]

[gilded finch]

a custom deck system would be neat

[celest oak]

That's pushing the limits of creativity but that would be pretty neat if they added it...

[native thunder]

i don't think that's possible with the hardware of our time unfortunately

[wild breach]

i saw a leak that there is going to be skateboarding in the game but i don’t know for certain

[gilded finch]

ya we will have to wait for skate 5 in 20 years and maybe the tech will be their for skating, but that is a shot in the dark

[native thunder]

come on, stop mucking around, that'll never happen, this is a hardcore rollerblading series

[wild breach]

tony hawk pro rollerblading 7

[hollow hazel]

This server is like Groundhog Day at this point

[scenic gull]

oh wait really? you might have a fake version. you actually just walk. whoever sold you that lied.

[native thunder]

knew I shouldn't have bought the version from Bmazon

[gilded finch]

ya the game is about walking and respecting and obeying private property ordinances

[scenic gull]

walk. 4

[tiny thunder]

Hi

[untold karma]

I highly doubt it :/

[sharp depot]

spreading false information?

[scenic gull]

banned.

[wild breach]

take my mod away 😩😭

[sharp depot]

^^

[vale anchor]

Never.

[heady lintel]

im pretty sure kickfliping is an actual thing in this game.

[hollow patrol]

impossible

[gilded finch]

how can you kickflip if their is no skateboards

[scenic gull]

ok but how will the keyboard controls work

[heady lintel]

LMAO

[scenic gull]

or pc in general

[wild breach]

you kick and flip

[heady lintel]

there are no keyboard controls bro

[sand anvil]

Basically just whip your mouse around like a nunchuck and hope it does the tricks

[timber oak]

flying boosted boards coming to gta skate edition 🥶

[sharp depot]

wil there be the ability to use eyetracking to play the game

[wild breach]

probably forced to play on a controller

[gilded finch]

it will look like the tony hawk ride controls

[heady lintel]

press alt f4 at the same time for laserflip

[scenic gull]

can you include a complimentary ps5 with the game

[untold karma]

I dont think so

[scenic gull]

oh my god.

[timber oak]

someone write in caps again

[gilded finch]

in caps again

[sudden warren]

Lmao

[sharp depot]

who let the joker in here

[wild breach]

he got you @timber oak

[scenic gull]

is this 1984 i cant even refrence bladee anymore

[brisk coral]

@scenic gull enough with arguing with the bot bro

[scenic gull]

😦

[timber oak]

this is literally 1984 smh

[brisk coral]

[scenic gull]

how do i turn off the smiley to emoji stuff

[sharp depot]

its a setting

[scenic gull]

where

[timber oak]

yeah we gotta fix them

[hollow patrol]

text and images

[scenic gull]

you should also let me send stickers

[sharp depot]

text and images

[wild breach]

no lmao

[heady lintel]

images would be good too

[scenic gull]

thank you

[wild breach]

images can be sent in specific channels

[heady lintel]

too many restrictions

imo

[sharp depot]

to be fair there are thousands of poeple here

[timber oak]

also EA’s policies are enforced here 😳

[wild breach]

we don’t need someone joining and sending a picture in the general discussion

[scenic gull]

the restrictions are fine i just with i could drop the weed man sticker

[sand anvil]

are they? I haven't seen any microtransactions yet lol

[brisk coral]

Almost at 20k

[scenic gull]

W

[heady lintel]

we lit

[timber oak]

you’ll get a bill for them, 4.99 per 10 messages 👍

[sand anvil]

Well... Flubbery...

[scenic gull]

can ea play get rid of the bill

[wild breach]

they are slowly getting better

[timber oak]

fallen order’s fire

[scenic gull]

sematary haunted mound

[wild breach]

can’t wait for the new fallen order

[sand anvil]

I still need to beat that, I just don't really enjoy soulslike games

[heady lintel]

omega cringe

[scenic gull]

i cant do my bladee refrence but intro clip of be nice 2 me here

[heady lintel]

mods do your job

[hollow python]

Custom images you can upload in the game via phone/website?

[brisk coral]

[heady lintel]

lmao

[fallow nexus]

how do i start playing

[scenic gull]

i feel like people will put not good symbols if you can upload any image you want

[hollow python]

Is that Leon S kennedy

[brisk coral]

Yes

[brisk coral]

https://www.ea.com/games/skate/insider-playtest-registration

[unique nebula]

What’s my job

[hollow python]

Loved re4 played it in vr as well

[fallow nexus]

ive already did that

[heady lintel]

everybody registered already we asking how we gonna start actually playing.

[brisk coral]

Remake is gonna slap

[brisk coral]

You'll start playing when I say so /s

[timber oak]

Dates aren’t announced yet, you’d get an email though

[hollow python]

Fax

[heady lintel]

shu up leo kliesn

insert joke

[spring ruin]

[sand anvil]

I really hope the RE4 remake makes the game enjoyable to play

[stone thunder]

Is the board room going to be a video or article?

[sharp depot]

picture

[sand anvil]

It's just gonna be a tweet that says Zoom

[sharp depot]

poorly drawn ms paint advertisement

[valid ocean]

good evening chat

its night in est rn lol

[sand anvil]

Yeah I was gonna say, it's 9:31pm here

[heady lintel]

its midnight for me lol. 3:31 in the netherlands rn.

[scenic gull]

not even itll just be like blank background with "skate 4 lol" somewhere in a default font

[restive cypress]

is there suppose to be second trailer this month?

[sharp depot]

comic sans 😭😭

[scenic gull]

💀

[atomic rover]

anyone know when they plan on releasing the beta? i signed up as soon as i heard about it yesterday

[scenic gull]

yeah

[sand anvil]

The beta? Idk maybe some time in January if they do one

[hollow patrol]

someone does

[scenic gull]

i do

[atomic rover]

seriously? i thought it was this month was just making sure

[sand anvil]

Ah, you mean the pre-pre-alpha

[scenic gull]

in your dreams

[atomic rover]

yes

i didnt realize it was in alpha thats actually dope

[hollow patrol]

oh ok. brb gonna play skate. in my dreams. goodnight mate

[frozen kelp]

I think the beta qill be between november and december

[icy pilot]

I love how the pre alpha footage looks more polished than launch gameplay was for the last battlefield game

Gives so much hope for a solid experience

[frozen kelp]

Yeah

[icy pilot]

Also not a bash at dice I actually like 2042

[vale anchor]

Beta would be cool, but according to the trailer we haven't even reached alpha yet

[icy pilot]

Just I don't consider it a battlefield game

[frozen kelp]

We are not too far from alpha tho

[icy pilot]

Tbh even for pre alpha , three's alot of good artwork on display

[atomic rover]

@vale anchor ah i see i guess i was misinformed im honestly game either way tho i havent played skate in like 9 years i use to love playing this game as a kid

[icy pilot]

And that park building looks like it has potential to he crazy

[vale anchor]

It really does!

[frozen kelp]

It does look amazing but i think if you do it with random people they will mess your build up

[icy pilot]

My dream would be to be able to import blender models into the game but. it's never as simple as it sounds

[vale anchor]

Now that would get crazy fast

[sage raptor]

new trailer was dope

no cyap

[icy pilot]

Also kudos on EA for actually letting a studio show off development progress in a trailer rather than using pre rendered cinematics

[frozen kelp]

What does kudos mean?

[icy pilot]

GJ

[digital sinew]

Like a congratulations

[icy pilot]

Or if you ever played project Gotham racing it's what they called the score xD

[frozen kelp]

Thanks

[meager heart]

Same

[icy pilot]

Yeah I mean GJ as in that was the answer btw xD

[sand anvil]

Actually never did get around to playing that ngl lol

[meager heart]

People love to hop on the hate bandwagon

[wary kiln]

so where will the q&a be hosted? already prepared some questions

[icy pilot]

It's a home test

[frozen kelp]

I need someone to record it

[wary kiln]

oh, so it isn’t a q&a?

[icy pilot]

I always get emails inviting me to in house testing but I can never make it

Oooh nevermind I thought you said QA not Q and A

[wary kiln]

yeah, i meant q&a

[icy pilot]

Yeah i dunno that answer 😂

I actually didn't even know there was a q and a

[frozen kelp]

Its a chat with some of the devs

[scenic gull]

swag

[wary kiln]

i just assumed since they said “we know you’ve got questions”

[scenic gull]

if they don’t let my skater wear a neon green dragon fursuit I’m ❌NOT❌ playing

[icy pilot]

I know what a Q and A xD just a QA is a different thing entirely which is also what some people call testing xD so I thought he meant the game testing

[frozen kelp]

Ah

[wary kiln]

i own a suit, and i support this

although i’ll still play either way lol

[icy pilot]

Tbh I'd pay for celebrity voice packs for your character

Sign me up as Gordon Ramsay any Day

[sand anvil]

I honestly would not be surprised if they made fursuits for the game

[scenic gull]

bro fr? i’d love to see 👁️👁️

[wary kiln]

one sec

[scenic gull]

dm me it

[sand anvil]

"you call that a kickflip you xxxxin donkey!? My grandmother can kickflip her wheelchair better than that!"

[icy pilot]

That kickflip was the dryest blandest kickflip iv ever tasted did you even season it

[wary kiln]

add the fursuit for the bit

[icy pilot]

Ngl it would also be kinda dope to see some of the jack booty crew in game like Knoxville wee man ect

[wary kiln]

i mean, i’ve seen people skate in fursuits, it’s not too far off

think i saw someone do a laser flip in a full on tiger fursuit lmao

[icy pilot]

Especially with the hall of meat looking like it's still there

[frozen kelp]

Yesssssss

[frozen kelp]

Perfect collab

[icy pilot]

I think that's the tie in we need

I also stand by my previous idea of wanting to do some William Spencer level tricks where you place boards and to parkour onto and off of them but that's a rather large undergoing

[scenic gull]

based behavior

[icy pilot]

Tbh tho until skate launches in thankful to have XL and trueskate xD

[scenic gull]

I wish i could at least play skate 3 but i sold my xbox for a switch thinking skate 4 would be released soon and now i cant even play the 3 and i dont even know it skate 4 will be on switch. its been 1 year, if i go without any skate game i may perish and decompose.

[sand anvil]

Xbox Cloud, you can play on PC and phones

[icy pilot]

I'm buying a series x soon with that Xbox all access deal , but I bought a switch other month , no regrets no one else has Pokémon or Zelda

[serene parrot]

solution, sell the switch and buy a new xbox

[icy pilot]

Switch is pog tho

[scenic gull]

facts

[digital sinew]

Yeah but compared to xbox and playstation kinda behind

[scenic gull]

and plus im a kid i cant just be selling and rebuying my consoles

[sand anvil]

Honestly Switch>Xbox... I'm on PC though so Xbox doesn't really get anything that I won't have access to

[icy pilot]

Behind in power but with some of the best franchises

[wary kiln]

that’s just kind of a nintendo thing

[icy pilot]

Yep but it's just just a convenient console too

[scenic gull]

I pray that skate 4 will be on switch even if the fps and graphics are downgraded

[wary kiln]

ye

[scenic gull]

ez breezy lemon squeezy

[sand anvil]

I mean the skateboard in the trailer from yesterday is a Switch so...

[scenic gull]

i personally think if the switch had skate 4 and some other pretty good games it would be the go to console

[wary kiln]

i think what would be the most realistic option would be to have it work on steam deck

[scenic gull]

i know i hope its not a coincidence

[digital sinew]

But handles them terribly

[icy pilot]

i dunno, the only ones i have issue with was the hyrule warriors game

Pokemon games seem to be fine

[scenic gull]

eh at least thps 1 + 2 remaster is on switch but it isnt necessarly the best

[digital sinew]

Mario party was horrendous on switch, luigis mansion wasnt that good, botw was good but I still liked link to the past more, pokemon is also bad sword and shield and lets go were horrendous

[icy pilot]

Huh they run fine for me

[wary kiln]

that’s kinda why i want a steam deck, it’s portable but has better performance specs

[icy pilot]

pretty sure oled is same as the older switches in perf

[scenic gull]

yeah

[sand anvil]

I have absolutely 0 issues with Mario Party on Switch

[icy pilot]

yeah the only game thats first party nintendo iv had issue with was hyrule, 3rd party games is... hit and miss tho

[valid ocean]

helo again chat

[digital sinew]

Hyrule warriors was good Wdym

[icy pilot]

Deffo buying monsterhunter rise on pc instead after renting it for switch

it wasnt bad but it ran like doodoo fps wise compared to most the games i own atleast

[wary kiln]

yeah, the third party stuff is where the cracks start to show

nintendo knows how to make the most out of their hardware, but it still falls behind with stuff

[icy pilot]

the lego saga game runs pretty buttery tho

[covert kestrel]

u got a PC?

[icy pilot]

and i bought the gta remasters since it was like 10£ in shop and they run ok

[scenic gull]

it can barely run minecraft

[covert kestrel]

oh nevermind then

[native thunder]

I could see steve-o, he was in thps underground 2

[placid ibex]

so whats the actual game called bc someone said its not skate 4

[covert kestrel]

you can try Xbox clouds but emulators won't run well

[icy pilot]

its just Skate.

[wary kiln]

probably just skate.

[sand anvil]

Currently, just Skate

[digital sinew]

Yeah it was bad fps but it’s a good game

[placid ibex]

ok

[scenic gull]

it'll always be skate 4 to me

[scenic gull]

yeah

[native thunder]

it's Skate. i think but i'll prolly just keep with skate 4 because that's a bit more specific

[sand anvil]

That's why we're pretty sure they're straight rebooting the series

[covert kestrel]

that one bit of concept art Google loves recommending when u look up skate 4 was so cool

I feel like the title sk4te would be epic as well

[wary kiln]

i’d like for it to be called skate 4, but it’s ok if they don’t call it that

[icy pilot]

tbh i feel like they did it , to state that its a whole new skate rather than a sequel

[covert kestrel]

but I think they want this game to be the ultimate end all be all skate game where u can skate realistically, or hit crazy stuff like in skate 3, connect with community, parkour, challenges, anything. so it looks like it'll just be "skate."

[covert kestrel]

this is what I was thinking

[wary kiln]

yeah

[icy pilot]

like how Doom and Doom are 2 different games but also not

[placid ibex]

am i gonna be able to play it on my PC or just consoles?

[scenic gull]

reminds me of what cod did with modern warfare, i imagine people will probably start calling it skate22/skate23 like mw19

[wary kiln]

pc has been confirmed

[covert kestrel]

PC bruddah

[icy pilot]

Technically for PC it really is Skate 1 😄

[scenic gull]

i wanted my dream of the game being a continuation of skate 3 where your company failed and you've spent the last 13 years as a recluse

[covert kestrel]

if it ain't on PC I won't be playing I don't own anything but a switch and my gaming pc

[icy pilot]

they already anounced pc is getting a launch too

[covert kestrel]

connecting the game to real life, I dig that ngl

[sand anvil]

Technically, PC is the only platform completely confirmed LUL

[woeful turtle]

Oh god

[wary kiln]

i’d prefer if the “make your own board company” thing was dropped, just felt like it didn’t really work or mean anything

[covert kestrel]

EA making skate. the launch game for their new sh**y console lmfao with PC to back it up

[icy pilot]

tbh at this point consoles and pcs are so similar in arcitecture that its not such a giant chore to make your game for multiple platforms

[scenic gull]

i liked the sponsors in skate 1 and 2 more anyway, felt more personalised

[wary kiln]

yeah

[scenic gull]

always nice to make your own setup in real life

[woeful turtle]

And its closer to what you would actually do if you are just starting out aswell. Although i do understand what skate 3 was doing though, Having you already be the skate legend.

[icy pilot]

my question is... is this new skate gonna be built on unreal engine 5? or is this gonna be one of the last frostbite games

[wary kiln]

cause like, you have your own board company, but you use other brands’ decks

[wary kiln]

frostbite

[icy pilot]

Damnnnn

shame as Ea announced they are adopting UE5 as there new engine

[wary kiln]

oh? didn’t hear about that

[scenic gull]

would’ve made more sense if you could make your own board. you could make it with the personalised board, but that just didn’t feel right

also the branded decks are way cooler than your own custom board

[wary kiln]

i believe the reboot will have a new protag, an actual new up and coming skater

[woeful turtle]

That'd be cool.

[scenic gull]

we’ve already had the bionic man, the convict and the legend i wonder what we’ll get next

[covert kestrel]

who said that?

[woeful turtle]

Well to be fair, we never really had proper customizable boards. (To the extent of what the actual brands did atleast)

[lilac aspen]

Okay so I had a question I dont wanna break any rules. Its not in the faq thing so lmk pls

[scenic gull]

@covert kestrel right here

[wary kiln]

leaked footage online, had the default frostbite editor icon in the top left

also that ye

[icy pilot]

ahh its still a shame tho since EA apparently anounced future titles are gonna be ue5

[unique wharf]

bunch of job listings

[icy pilot]

frost bite is probably the scariest part of the new skate imo tbh

[lilac aspen]

Wait so

[covert kestrel]

unfortunate as unreal is pretty damn good but considering frostbite has been used in some pretty beautiful games(Battlefield 5, etc.) as long as it's optimized I'm chill

[lilac aspen]

Is skate 4 playable right now through playtesting? Or is it not yet and thats why Im lost

[covert kestrel]

bro imagine skate. in 240hz 😩

[scenic gull]

not right now, if you’ve signed up for play testing you should get an email sooner or later

[wary kiln]

i’d like the reboot to have an intro based inside a game development studio, have some gags towards game development

kinda like the intros in 1-3

[icy pilot]

its not the optimisation zy its just alot of devs have complained about working with frostbite over the years

[lilac aspen]

Yeah because every time I like sign in and choose my platform it doesnt really do anything. It says "You're in" even though I go back and its still in "Playtest Avaliable"

[covert kestrel]

I don't know much about coding and game development my bad

[icy pilot]

ducky click the playtesting homepage

your infact in but you might need to fill out your profile

[wary kiln]

i could imagine a bit where your skater is actually one of the people doing mocap, and you leave the studio to start a skateboarding career

[scenic gull]

pretty sure people have said that the “you’re in” screen means you are actually in for play testing. just wait on the email

[icy pilot]

i dont think thats it i think its just a page bug for if you already have an EA account signed in

[lilac aspen]

Soo im good to go?

[scenic gull]

i think it just means you're signed up

[icy pilot]

i mean personally id filly out my profile on the testing homepage but technically youv applied xD

[lilac aspen]

insider?

[scenic gull]

and may or may not get into a test

[icy pilot]

yeah i think thats its name

[scenic gull]

based on my past experiences with public testing it starts small and will get exponentially bigger. i bet there will be an open beta at some point that anyone who signs up for gets into

[covert kestrel]

how do I ensure I'm signed up, I think I've done it twice to make sure

[lilac aspen]

Yeah I have too but I feel like something isnt right

[woeful turtle]

That'd be awesome

[lilac aspen]

PLAYTESTS AVAILABLEVIEW ALL
skate. Insider Playtesting Signup

[covert kestrel]

I hope that my new sign ups don't overwrite my old ones and I'm signed for a later playtest

[icy pilot]

Login to this, https://ea.arcsivr.com/Portal/home and from there you should be able to go to your profile to add your name and other details... i hope the bot doesnt hurt me

[lilac aspen]

Its not under "Your Playtests"

[icy pilot]

oh never mind

[covert kestrel]

for me it's under playtests in progress

[scenic gull]

i think it's just a glitch with the site
i finished signing up for the insider program but the survey never leaves "playtests in progress"

[lilac aspen]

Oh now mine is in that category

[scenic gull]

there's also this infinitely looping inclusivity test

[wary kiln]

i would sign up, but my laptop is on the lower end, so i doubt i could run it

[icy pilot]

tbh thats a small part of what testing is about,

[acoustic dock]

give it a go, they need testing on all specs

[hollow patrol]

i did and i only have a laptop i got 7 years ago lol

i dont care if i have to turn the settings down to play tbh

[cerulean parcel]

streamed gameplay is also an option

if they so wanted (for playtesting)

[hollow patrol]

idk man im in aus, that might impact performance if its being streamed from the us

we'll see how it goes when we get there

[dry elm]

How are yall getting early access for ps4? Im thinking im too late

[hollow patrol]

next playtest is pc only

[lilac aspen]

Do we know when?

[hollow patrol]

soon™️

[unkempt kayak]

dub im on pc 🦾

[lilac aspen]

same

[scenic gull]

I didnt even sign up for playtesting. I never get picked when it comes to chance

I have only alpha tested games when i got selected for my experience

[lilac aspen]

theres gonna be thousands picked

[scenic gull]

[lilac aspen]

I wonder if anyone has gotten an email yet

[unkempt kayak]

only a spoonful dw

[wary kiln]

if that’s the case, then sure

just unsure if they would want to take specs like a 1050 with 8 gb ram into consideration

[unique nebula]

Like idk some but less than more than some yk

[lilac aspen]

if they make it compatiable with GeForce NOW I might MMMMM

[hollow patrol]

it would be nice to gauge what the min requirements to run it are

[magic hound]

[wary kiln]

alrighty, then i might think about it

[sand anvil]

hi

[acoustic dock]

hello

[scenic frigate]

yo

[vale anchor]

Howdy

[valid ocean]

hola

[fading aspen]

yo

[dry elm]

So I missed the ps4. Also @/reply/dm me any time with information. I'm not the most active here since I moderate other servers im in. Y'all have it on lock here already without me moderating anything lol

[vale anchor]

There's been nothing announced about the PS4

[turbid grail]

New trick idea grabbing the sides of your board and doing a hand stand on your board maybe lol

[fading aspen]

^

[vague arch]

hi chat

[dry elm]

Appreciate you broski! If I missed it its all good, if its not ready then its also cool. It takes time especially for the ps4-5 update and same on Xbox series

Good looks! If I have and ideas ill drop by or yall can summon me whenever. True skate is my frame of reference as well as skate and skater xl so I have some long standing ideas lol

[tender flint]

i think itd be cool if the new game properly labeled bigspin and body varial tricks when you spin a pop shuvit in certain directions

[scenic frigate]

missed what

[covert kestrel]

I've signed up multiple times but going to my ea playtest page does not show skate. under my playtests available page

[vague arch]

braddock isnt online for like the first time what 😟

[turbid grail]

YOOO for hall of meat it should be something like sniper elite or mk11 maybe

[scenic frigate]

well it isnt available yet i guess

[tender flint]

how do i use the skate ideas threads channel💀

[fading aspen]

open channel, click threads top right, create thread

[vale anchor]

We might not see him but he's always there, like Batman. Never know when he'll drop in

[tender flint]

oh ok lmao

[turbid grail]

Signing up doesn't guarantee you will be a play tester and signing up multiple times seems like a way to never have a chance imo once your caught

[covert kestrel]

does anyone have skate under the available playtests page

[vague arch]

hes lurking..

[acoustic dock]

im pretty sure we arent allowed to say

[covert kestrel]

caught? I've just gone to the sign up page on the same account multiple times to make sure it goes through

[turbid grail]

You get a email saying you have signed up

[still loom]

I'm pretty sure you're allowed to disclose if you are participating in playtests, just not any information about the game that wasn't in the trailer

[turbid grail]

I feel like anyone 18+ would know this considering that's the rules and all @covert kestrel

[dry elm]

Any information about ps4 alpha tests this far

[scenic frigate]

there havent been any alpha tests on anything so far for the public

[covert kestrel]

never got an email saying I signed up for skate. playtesting, only one for email offers n such.

[covert kestrel]

never done playtesting before I apologize

[turbid grail]

Those aren't likely early on most devs start developing on PC as it's easiest in most cases

[dry elm]

I know. Also dude. Ya know me messages weren't far up in chat XD im dead 💀 🤣

[dry elm]

Yeah I had a feeling. Once I was told pc is next thats what I figured. Get the beta working on pc first and go from there 💪

[turbid grail]

Yea hopefully it's soon

[dry elm]

I cant use my signature emote here damn .

Hopefully, I'll be around more checking in on the regular.

[covert kestrel]

@turbid grail I don't know much about playtesting or EA playtests at all so if you could refer me to something that gives the rundown about the rules for it and all that would be helpful, I just tried to sign up as quick as possible because I'm hyped for the game and want to be a part of it.

[turbid grail]

Yea man all good no worries

[dry elm]

Im not sure who's the game devs here but stay hyped and we will get in together hopefully

Goodluck PC Playtesters when yall get early access!

[turbid grail]

@covert kestrel I'm not sure where it's stated but I remember playtests being 18+ so if you didn't get a email for signing up thats probably why it's all good though hopefully it will be more open to the public soon

[covert kestrel]

we'll see, glad to be a part of this community literally one of the best game discords I've been in. everyone is the best

[covert kestrel]

that could be why, I'm 16. I'll check some more stuff out

[still loom]

I didn't get an email either and I'm 19

[dry elm]

Oh fosho broski! I appreciate y'all helping me out too by replying and making sure I'm notified. ♡ solid community makes me wayyy more hyped for the online features in game.

[acoustic dock]

I only got an email for news

[turbid grail]

Does anyone here know how idea threads are opened? I mean it doesn't seem like people just suggesting stuff it looks like people blatantly putting a idea out and it being added

[dry elm]

Pro because the devs see it as a good idea or starting point I dunno man

[turbid grail]

From what I've heard you get a email along the lines of "Email sign up confirmed" or something

[acoustic dock]

interesting, hopefully all of us see it soon

[still loom]

Well that's a little concerning

[dry elm]

Probably **^

I think I should have got the email as well ill check but it was just a confirmation I signed the form on skate.ea

[acoustic dock]

skate.game

[covert kestrel]

according to their FAQ: "If you are interested in video games and meet the following age requirements you may sign up.

USA: 14 - 15 years old may attend with a parent or guardian. 16 years of age + may attend alone
Canada: 15 years of age and up

UK / Sweden: 16 years of age and up"

I found a community forum stating that it was 18+ but that doesn't match their website so 🤷‍♂️.

guess I'll just wait and see.

[fervent carbon]

I hope we all get the chance to play skate. I refused to stop playing skate 3, and skate. will be next regardless of me getting to play test or not. You can tell this project means something to the team as well. They were genuine with their video presentation, they didn’t wait a month to tell everyone at a huge gaming conference with all beauty shots. They’re gonna kill it. Next gen graphics about to be fire 🔥 I got the news letter email, idk if that’s all I needed but I filled the form and they listed on their virtual form that’s all I needed to do. If I’m not selected, again, no beef, but also 🥩

[turbid grail]

Huh wasn't aware of that

[dry elm]

so im good then 22 ps4 and Canadian.

Dude waisted a chat to correct something Google woulda corrected/ is linked in the discord. Im deadddd. Yall are too good! Loving the community ❤ 💕 (obviously not a diss to ya man, just proves chats helpful!l

[covert kestrel]

are links allowed?

[turbid grail]

Wonder how they do the "must be with parent or guardian"

That is probably for in person stuff I think

[covert kestrel]

why Google when I can talk to people? 😉

[dry elm]

Its prolly just concent to play. Or to sit with them review the game before buying to see if its safe or how to make it child friendly. (Say we have copyright music or something like the skaters get mad a sware like THUG 1/2

The rage meter ^* deck snap feature when you baiked a long combob

[turbid grail]

Also in case anyone asks the only "playtests" active right now is the SIGN UP meaning to our knowledge no one in the public has played it yet

[still loom]

I'm gonna choose to believe EA just stalks teen playtesters through their webcams at all times just to make sure

[turbid grail]

Imagine your just enjoying your self and you get a pop up like "ERROR:Parent has left the frame please return them"

[acoustic dock]

Error Fortnite is running in the background...

[turbid grail]

Would be nice to have a toggle to enable/disable mild violence like blood splatter or swearing

[acoustic dock]

Personally I enjoy it as i love watching skate fail videos. But It's a must for the younger people who their parents despise voilence and gore

[turbid grail]

Yea having a bit of blood would be nice when falling or something as in skate 3 the falls didn't feel very impactful

[fervent carbon]

I hope they bring back bouncing dudes like Big Black from Skate 2 in hall of meat modes, maybe just like a game mode implementation of it 😁 back at the Dam 🦫

[acoustic dock]

But then again, It's a huge part of skating

[turbid grail]

Like your shirt would get a bit dirty but thats all

[acoustic dock]

Hall of meat, but realistic

[tender flint]

as long as they don't overdo the blood splatters like in THUG or something, that could be cool

[turbid grail]

Yea I'm just thinking like a bit of blood on the skin or ground where your head hit it or something

[fervent carbon]

I think they nowadays have a blood filter for some games which is good like you can turn it off if you want.

[turbid grail]

I swear if skate 4 is released and we have to wait another decade or something

[fervent carbon]

It’d be worth the wait all over again 🍷

[tender flint]

for what?

[covert kestrel]

so the playtest begins the 5th and it seems they generally send out emails saying someone's been selected 1-3 days before. so if no one here can confirm they got a "you signed up for the playtesting program" email we can probably assume that we're signed up and we just gotta wait

[turbid grail]

Hopefully the new skate base game is good enough to where they can add updates for maybe new sites or tricks and don't have to make a whole new game

[covert kestrel]

considering the branding as a reboot and teasers of an MMO(maybe idk that's how it seems) I imagine this to be the case

[turbid grail]

Idk about reboot I made hitman has done the same kind of naming and honestly considering in the teaser they show parkour I think it's safe to say a new game won't be made

Until people get bored of the new one but as long as content updates come every now and then I don't think it's a big deal

[dry elm]

Just like how some call of duty had that same option for "effects" over "realistic" like i thunk IW or AW did soke confetti 🎊 as a way to keep things pg13 ish. Mind you we all know the words allowed in pg13 games and what they are allowed to view. But I definitely would like to see this game rated teen or something, with a "kids mode"

Skate 3 felt like almost a bounce without the spring it was worth playing tho and even the new game im down to play it out how skate 3 did.

My biggest/hardest suggestion
Double analog
Traditional skate style 1 stick/button combos
Tony hawk style controls.
Optional controls.

I love doul analog and skate style personally

[scenic gull]

Yes like skate 2 ! You can get visible bloody road rash. Surprisingly it was excluded from 3? But games are supposed to get more with each new version , not less

[turbid grail]

Idk about the Tony hawk style controls I mean the whole purpose of skate is to have a different option then that

[covert kestrel]

I feel the need for a kids mode wouldn't really be necessary

[native thunder]

nah, i'm pretty sure injuries were present in 3

[turbid grail]

Never been too much of a fan of THPS I liked the analog usage of skate

[turbid grail]

That's what I'm saying must have been a rating issue is my guess

[native thunder]

i love thps and skate, i don't like when people compare them because apart from skateboarding, they're 2 complete games with different visions

[scenic gull]

True ! It was dirty or dirt or mud. But in skate 2 there was red blood on the skin

[turbid grail]

Yea it's mainly just the realism and controls for me

[scenic frigate]

where did u find this stuff out tho

[covert kestrel]

the idea of what's acceptable for kids to view has changed massively over the years. a bit of blood and swearing probably wouldn't hurt. in my family's eyes it was always a thing with sexual references and stuff. not sure if it's really necessary

[turbid grail]

Yea your shirt got scuffed up a bit but that was it

[native thunder]

you sure, i swear i remember reddish rashes in 3

[turbid grail]

I don't think blood was ever present

[scenic gull]

Right before the trailer went live, a lucky few were plucked for play-testing on July 5-8th

[untold karma]

thps is kinda boring to me I never got into it

[scenic frigate]

dude thats insane imagine being one of them

[turbid grail]

Wait so people were chosen for playtests before the beta footage was shown?

I'm confused now

[scenic gull]

10 mins before !! Okay no maybe 30 mins before?

[unique nebula]

Sounds like you never got the secret tape!

[untold karma]

Im pretty sure thats how it works?

[covert kestrel]

not sure if the bot will be mad if I post links it's basically an article about signing up for the playtest by gamepur. it features other known info like it being PC only. I imagine they got it from some leaks

[untold karma]

I just don't like the mechanics of it

odd to me

[turbid grail]

Wow big letdown for me I saw the footage on TikTok and instantly came here but I guess I don't have a chance

[jolly granite]

To my knowledge the PC only thing was public info

[scenic gull]

I never signed up for ea playtesting because, fifa is alright but im not impatient for it so i can just wait for 1.0. MAN did that bite me in the butt

[turbid grail]

Seems kinda odd to still have a sign up page if you can't sign up

Had my hopes up for nothing

[jolly granite]

Not sure what you mean by this, I signed up just fine

[turbid grail]

I'm confused because @scenic gull is saying people were chosen before they released the beta footage

[dry elm]

Maybe now but when I was growing up we heard words you wouldn't say I most chats lol.

It was an additional option Wooper. I only care for doul analog and skate style like I said. The THPS style is how they play test most games to make sure animations work so its not impossible

[covert kestrel]

other articles also quote the 7/5-7/8 data

[turbid grail]

So I'm not sure

[scenic gull]

For july 5th !! But there will be future playtests. But no one knows when

[turbid grail]

Ah so it was the first batch of testing is what I'm getting?

[scenic gull]

Yup !

[jolly granite]

The public play test is a wave based system, and according to what 1zy is saying the play test doesn’t open till the 5th

[turbid grail]

Thank god I still have a chance in the second batch lol

[scenic gull]

That is the hope 🙏🏼 i still havent signed up haah. I have such bad luck i wont be chosen anyways

[jolly granite]

There’s more than a couple batches I would think considering it’s pre-pre alpha

[turbid grail]

Well you will never be chosen if you don't sign up no hurt in trying

[covert kestrel]

allegedly don't take my word for it but it makes sense it would be opening around then. do your own research probably

[dry elm]

For my idea kids mode is no swearing no nothing just pure raw skating. Yall taking things far saying we need cussing in kids mode. Im trying to make it a pure mode and a realistic mode for adults/teens over 13-16

All we need is to have a mode that changes the music and replaces some swears with screams or grunts. Like skate 3.

[turbid grail]

Kinda nervous if I am chosen I don't know how serious it is and if I would have to sign a NDA

[scenic gull]

Yup. More than likely you will sign NdA and will be prohibited from screen capture software

[hollow hazel]

These sort of things can easily be worked around though so it’s kind of pointless. Someone can just click “18+” when selecting their age

[scenic gull]

Even if you tried to be slick and record your screen. There will be a watermark that will single you out

Then you will never be invited to playtest again

[turbid grail]

Would it be a in person thing it seemed to me like it was online

[dry elm]

Who cares. Its still up to the parents not the devs to lock them out. Plus even a fake age would do the trick

Congratulations!!you did the same thing we alllllllll did growing up

Its just as bad as going online kids mode or not

[hollow hazel]

So what’s the point then lol

[scenic gull]

Hmmm i do wonder. It could be remote playtest through Origin Launcher. OR, maybe in person at EA

[covert kestrel]

I'm guessing it's gonna be both
