Feedback on Air (or lack thereof)

HI guys, So I believe I assisted a little biy n the alpha and beta of this baby and it was great after all these years to see it finally launch. But one thing I am completely confused by is how this map doesn't contain anywhere near the vertical air capabilities of the 1st 3 versions of the game, and especially compared to Skate 3. Then again, im older now and perhaps I am just missing it, but so far I have skated the SH|+cabittle out of this map and cannot seem to find any treacherous aerial zones. So am I just missing the air? Or does it simply not exist, and if it is the latter, would love to know what your logic was behind not including even more magnificent air in this version of the game.

Anyone else have comments, feedback on this subject please DO post!

Thanks,

Scott

    Personally, I think there are too many big air spots - particularly mega ramps. I much prefer grounded skate spots and realistic transition, so I’m against there being any more megas than there already are.

    They might be hard to spot at first because some of them are well disguised while others sit in plain sight, but there are many spread around the map and they often lead into other ramps that, on a regular approach, look like regular quarters but will launch you into the stratosphere if you hit them after the mega.

    Off the top of my head and in no particular order:

    • P-Hus x3
    • M-Corp Tower x1
    • Flowtopia roof x1
    • Canal x1
    • Stadium x1
    • Gullcrest Village/Flumpalist block x2
    • Rolling Waves x1
    • ImpervaTEK Towers x2

     

    There are other spots that are reachable through skydiving etc, but I’m not including those as they don’t have a dedicated drop-in. Likewise for modifiable spots where you’re encouraged to build ramps, as neither are the same as free skate. Ditto for Community Parks and events.

    If you are struggling for air more generally, adjust your pump settings. For the biggest air, you need pump speed at 100 and pump assist set high.

    I want to skate really fast down a big hill.
