Climbing skyscrapers ruins the immersion. This is a skating game, I shouldn't have to climb a skyscraper like Spiderman just to get to a challenge. It wouldn't be an issue if we could quick travel to challenges like we can at the stores.
nobody is forcing you to do that. you can play totally realistic if you want. its still going to be fun if you want it to be.
The missions requires you to climb, and it's woefully unfun.
you dont have to do those. you only unlock cosmetics
The climbing is by no means a smooth system, though it has it's benefits.
Remember in Skate 2 and 3 when you had to do the sprinting caveman glitch to get to really high areas? This is where the climbing comes in handy. Also, when skate. was first teased, I was under the impression we would see more technical street skating (kinda like Mike Vallely's style) with all the climbing and jumping off monkey bars but instead we've gotten budget Assassin's Creed missions.
Like I was saying, it needs work but it could be something we might enjoy in the end.
I completely agree. There needs to be a way to get to everyplace on the map without getting off your board. ESPECIALLY when unlocking a new FP.
No spending 5 to 15 minutes climbing to a spot will never be fun
I almost never climb.. once all fast travel points are unlocked you can spread eagle to anywhere. Just teleport to a nearby skyscraper and fly across
yeah okay spread eagle is unrealistic but avoids tedious climbs
To each their own, I don't see any bright ideas coming from people like you.
Its nice to be able to climb. Its not nice to have to climb a skyscraper in a mission. The solution would be to have the climbing missions be for smaller climbs and buildings, and also a more varied climb, like with jumps and swings and wallrides. Problem is that most of the missions u just hold up and X for a couple of minutes while the character slowly jumps upwards which is annoying as hell. I usually just try to cheat around it by teleporting to another skyscraper or using the teleport to throwdown thing.
