yeah i felt that way too but here we are, perhaps a little bit early but i also wanted to get my cool image as the thread opener because i worked really hard on it (3 minutes)
as much as i hate this fuckin game im gonna keep playing it because it's fun for SOME reason and i can't really figure out why. but whatever
waiting for grom to drop for non paypigs if anything... looks very fun honestly

>>2288527
Grom does look pretty nice, but it doesn't give me enough of an urge to reboot into windows.
I saw some news the other day that EA is allegedly working on getting their useless anticheat working on Linux, this kind of game would be perfect to play for half an hour here and there on the Deck.

>>2288621
I didn't pay any money but happened to have 1100 SVB from all the free shit we've been given and finally caved (partially due to just wanting the suit because I'm not expecting any good cosmetics coming to the store soon and black socks possibly part of an event, hopefully I don't regret it next season if it has a better pass)

The island is OK but getting around the island can be quite tedious without fast travelling, mostly just feels like a small mega park with a few things tacked on.
If this wasn't paywalled at all I think skate could have gotten a lot of good rep but man this update like legitimately pretty much ALL the content is just tied to the isle of grom so free to play get jack shit in terms of content for a whole month.

I also saw that there's an extravert store on grom so at some point they'll add boxes here too which will be a pain for f2p players who have to practically pay double for those boxes.

damn last thread went on for 3 months
remember when we had daily /v/ threads

>>2289360
I mean, the game both fell up hard but got better at the same time.
There's nothing much to discuss besides shitting on EA and sharing clips.

>>2289374
Yeah like I've said before I don't think there's anything wrong with a slow thread for a game like this, especially with such slow development. Of course when it was new it had a lot of discussion. But that's why we settled on /vm/, a thread lasting 3 months here is pretty normal, a quarter or more of the catalog is older than our last thread.

can you go in the brick warehouse on the island? I haven't paypiggied to get access, so curious

>>2289402
A door is cracked but there's nothing in it besides 3 bigass generator things.

>>2289402
>>2289412
I really think they will put something else there simply because it's too suspicious and because they obviously took flak for it, like the stadium in SV.

>>2289413
Maybe there's a plan for it, it definitely is weird that they went out of their way to crack the door just for there to be fuck all in it. Maybe a community park for Grom? Or the grom event in April will use it?

>>2289426
No idea, but it makes sense. Theoretically Grom needs a community park and I don't really see anywhere else that would fit one.
Also, in SV the Gullcrest one is being used only for indoor parks, at least up to a couple days ago (haven't checked since I haven't left Grom).

It does make me wonder what their plans are for the extravert boxes, since each district was progressively more pricey. Will grom boxes cost like 2k rip chips? It'd take an eternity to get through the catalogue, even for those of us with a massive stockpile of chips.

Everything there has wallride magnetism (which I will forever blame for this kind of retardation). The game does not know what to do with you.

>>2289959
The current incremental lootbox design just seems awfully shortsighted. A bit difficult to believe that not a single developer at Full Circle didn't realize this. Almost like they expect the game to kick the bucket fairly quickly. Proper smash and grab with the mtx shop

I am fairly sure that's on Cuz Parry. He spent all these years between Skate 3 and this thing at Exploding Barrel games, a mobile vidya company especialized in mtx garbage.

Brother (hermano? idk no hablo espanol), have you seen the board meeting videos and all that shit? Pic related is of course the most egregious example but is definitely not the end of it. The types of people they have in key positions like Head of Creative and whatnot are wildly out of touch in a way that actually makes Cuz almost look cool in comparison. If you really want to roast Cuz for something it'd be the absurdly gay and tacky San Vansterdam / M-Corp storyline, the writing for the characters in the game, etc.

Бpaт (comrade? idk, don't speak english), I did. IMO that's not even the worst one. To me, it's the tranny Alice (pic related, despite the gameplay being arguably the only objectively good thing in the game) and Yolanda He, the user experience designer, aka tranny croptop machine.
I hate Cuz because he lied, simple as.

There's also Jeff Braddock.

Let me freely hate!!!

>>2290122
I guess I should get my ESL-isms straight, sorry. But yeah no real hate it just weirds me out because Cuz is also the only name I see mentioned outside of here as well and it's like.. look who's in the actual key roles like producers (who would be the ones in charge of overall direction, high level decisions like monetization, work prioritization, etc), head of creative (art style, what clothes etc get into the shop), senior gameplay designers (the gay challenges and tasks, mobile gameplay loop) etc. All the people at the highest level are out of touch faggots, moreso than even Cuz. It's a shame because through the videos there were a few people that did seem pretty cool but never in very influential roles. At least Cuz was involved in skateboarding. These cunts probably think a slappy is a high-five.

There's the drainage ditch that's always been there, the new spillway spits you out into it. It's pretty good as far as my kinda-bad-at-vert opinion goes.

excessive vert, not enough transition, flat is too wide. same problem as the ramp at the skatepark under the freeway.

Not sure why this is but this halfpipe feels like ass, I don't know how it all works here but feels like pumping on this thing doesn't work as well as that one halloween park's halfpipe did

>>2291889
that really tight transition sucks to pump on, it looks just like that bowl at Rolling Waves nobody rides in because it's such a pain to pump in. when the transition is that tight, the pump window is also very tight and you don't get nearly as much speed from it. even if you do it perfect you only get about half as much air as you do out of the other bowl with the tombstone.

One weird thing about the ditch pipe is that the flat isn't flat, it's just a more mellow transition. I have a feeling it's doing some weird shit to make off-timed pumps more punishing than normal or something, like instead of registering as being off by like 2% from the transition you're trying to pump, it's taking it as you being way off from the shitty transition at the bottom. Plus the main transition is just tight and hard to time anyway.

these st patrick challenges are kicking my ass

>>2294588
the 'grind gap' one in Gullcrest is a pile of trash. half the time the nosegrinds don't even register, the game interprets it as a feeble or smith. the little ledge you have to double grind is so short you have to hit it at a very specific speed for the game to recognise you actually grinded it. and then for the final checkpoint it wants you to gap off the funbox to the walkway below, but there's a planter and some trees in the way so there's no way to land cleanly without putting a drop object like plywood down there and hope for the best when you make a blind leap of faith. and hope you can check your speed enough when you land that you don't get hung up trying to turn back for the final checkpoint and miss the timer.

>>2294601
yeah that one is hell and the nose slide blunt side in the same park too, you need speed for the noseslide to stick otherwise you just get off at the slight turn

>>2294607
that one I got to work by putting a small kicker in front of the ledge. made it easier to get up onto it for the nose slide, which let me keep my speed up.

i wonder if it would be based or cringe if controls were inverted while rolling fakie

>>2294588
Did most of them fine, had to put grind assist to 100 because for some reason was completely unable to grind on those rainbow rails, I gave up on the tailslide to bluntslide though, gave me nightmares of that one tix challenge where you had to tailslide onto a ledge after a nosegrind that was basically impossible to do.

try the kicker trick I suggested earlier. it helps keep your speed up and carry you through the curve. I'd suggest doing the flip trick onto the nose slide ledge, rather than in the gap between the two grinds. or do it as you exit the blunt.

if you do the input for a salad stall on a QP lip, but angle yourself ever so slightly in the direction you put the setup input for, you will actually do a feeble grind for about 2-3 feet. the angle is extremely precise though, if you're too much of an angle the game will glitch and throw you off your board or do a nosegrind instead.

No. I think it varies based on system a lot. I get pretty bad stutters in the preview but exporting is mostly good.

Only got softlocked in the replay editor a few times total before s3, have had it happen twice since.

New Session roadmap. Throwdown animations at long last. Kinda lame that's a flagship feature for the year's roadmap, skate games are kinda bleak to be honest. Good to see the game's still getting updates, hopefully the "fluidity" update is significant.

you are now aware of the fact the only reason Flick-It exists is because EA were experimenting with analogue flick controls in all their sports games in 2006-2007
Madden, Chel, and MVP Baseball all have similar flick controls on the right stick

>>2313203
Yes and no. The NHL games were technically the innovators as they were the first sports game release to have them. But even before that got to market Skate was already in development with the flick it controls, both studios came up with the idea independently.
It was only after the success of those two that EA started pushing it on all their sports games, my favorite was when they nuked their NBA franchise forever because in trying to implement the controls there they created probably the shittiest basketball game ever.

>>2313212
and the first EA games to have those controls began development in 2005 (the 06 games were launched in 2005, sports games used to be a year ahead), the same time as Skate. despite them being different studios, they all had the same parent and were clearly told to incorporate certain features. that's why Chel, NBA Live, MVP, and FIFA (EA Vancouver) had all the same UI elements and gameplay mechanics as Madden and NASCAR (EA Tiburon). Brand Synergy, and all that.

>>2312511
>skate games are kinda bleak to be honest.
It's rough.
I can appreciate Session but I kinda gave up when they cancelled transitional skating. Sure, they have no budget, but it's a bad look when they're focusing so much on DLC when they don't even have an animation to get on your board yet.

even in THPS the guy holds the 'real' stance for about a second before he starts walking once the game realises you have enough air to maintain it. and they clearly did that because they knew holding a static pose would look unnatural.

https://youtu.be/E-mUGIqhvUY

I wish we could set up grabs before we get air. not just backside and frontside grabs, but everything feasible. like, hold down on the right stick (Ollie setup) and then hit L2 or R2 to nosegrab or crail on the ground. it would also make a good system to tie handplants into. change what handplant you do based on what grab you're doing when you hit R1.

Nah it's probably the stadium. I know these retards are constantly outdoing themselves but I really doubt they're going to put up invisible walls around Brickswich.

I've spent my welfare SVB but anyone that's held on is as much of a winner as you can be as a player of this shit game. Free premium passes until EoS for anyone with 1000+ SVB from handouts. Or I guess 750 since you get 250 from the free pass.

I hate these things so fucking much its unreal. Do I have retard thumb, or is the impossible input just insanely finnicky?

there really should be some sort of "hold button to toggle tricks" prompt when grinding on rails. try to spin out of a grind and you pull an impossible and eat shit when the board clips the rail

Development of this game is so sad, they had a lighting update and then abandoning the changes they made because they suddenly paid attention to everyone telling them they wanted day and night cycles, baffling they ignored this for so long.
So much time gets put into all this aesthetic crap rather than fucking content and it seems the current trend is just for them to add a new trick every season and lock some new area of the map behind a paywall.
So little will have been added in the course of a year.

I wish you could shuv out of nose/tail slides without popping. Those are always my favourite skate tricks

>>2455598
It is incredibly grim that we're getting youtuber content. I don't want a hat with some youtuber's logo on it, but unfortunately there's probably enough 12 year olds who do.
At least a lot of the dumb stuff in previous games was in the context of Danny Way or Rob Dyrdek's brand of bullshit.

The worst part is that these challenges are mostly pure luck, waiting for the physics to flip a coin and decide if you land it or not.
Except for the OTL which is a grind tutorial? Fucking weird all around and a bad sign of things to come.

>>2462378
the only one that seems to rely on physics exploits is the megaramp one, because you have to hope the game gives you the precise right angle and speed to land on the dock.
the other ones I tried seemed easy enough to repeat. especially the one where you divebomb into the pipe, that was trivial. I haven't tried the 'manual the roof' one yet.

>>2468421
>I haven't tried the 'manual the roof' one yet.
That's the main one I meant, unfortunately.
The ramp up is in a very weird place and it seems the main trick is to hope you get enough height to grind the roof then change into a manual.
I simply do not have the time for such bullshit.

>>2477420
I quickly gave up on that ninsense and just built a stack or roll in QPs to the roof

>>2477420
Hippy jump spread eagle is pretty reliable for gaining height

dunno why they made Judos and Nosegrab Judos a separate trick. wasted a trick slot

>place ramp at bottom of Grom mega ramp, launching unsuspecting people to the moon

>>2484375
Honestly the retards that can't figure out there's a setting to have other people's objects off by default deserve it.

I think I've gone mad. I would swear on my life that I did a 360 shoveit and held it earlier today, so the board kept spinning with the 360 shuv speed. I landed and it said something like '720 FS 360 Shove'. I have NEVER gotten held 360 shuvs to work before, and I have been trying for the last 20 minutes to try and replicate it and can't. am I hallucinating?

>>2479884
That doesn't count as taking your feet of the board? Should've figured it'd be some nonsense like that

>>2485799
You were halucinating, or you did a regular pop-shuv input at speed while doing a spin and you got confused by the result

>>2485896
I didn't spin, though. I had just ollied off the top of a wall and was trying to do a held laser flip and scooped too much causing the 360 shove input

i kind of want to enter the video contest bros..

God I love how almost every feature or change they make is usually just tweaking something or putting in less effort while making it look different.

>>2493683
>we don't know how to utelise space properly so we're just making the park smaller
KWAB

>>2493683
That begs the question. Do they have Halo 3 heatmaps showing exactly where people tend to group up? Because I've hardly seen anyone skate a single community park regardless of district save for the gullcrest dime park we had in the pre-season.

>>2493888
Gullcrest usually has 2-3 people when I go up there. I almost never see more than one person at the other two.

>>2493683
i actually like the new location since it's in the open

My old 1080ti setup chugs a lot streaming this game to my new Windows-less PC... it's over for me you guys. Unless EA actually puts their anticheat on linux which I'm not actually holding my breath for. So important for a skate game with no competitive modes.

>>2516850
At what resolution are you playing? 1080ti should be able to handle it.
Anyway I am waiting for them to make it run on Linux too. Can't be fucked to boot into Windows for this game and it would be the perfect 'eck game.

>>2518817
Probably pretty stupid for the card but 1440p. I'm not sure if maybe some mid-season update changed things but it was running mostly pretty good when I played actually on the PC. I think it's just the extra load of streaming it via Sunshine so I can stay on my new PC.

>>2518883

>plaza

>letter shaped pillars
The retarded twin towers. There was an objective where you had to drop into a bridge connecting the two and then do the retarded eagle into a building, you have to skate in said bridge.

Also the parking lot one is indeed bugged, my solution was placing a small ramp near the dumpster from the street into the alley and griding it.

yeah early access was for indie devs that needed funds to allow them to replace their day job in order to work on their game full time, early access has lost all meaning. i guess i meant "1.0" in a spiritual sense. Basically stuff that should have been in the game from the start
