Feedback on roadmap
Season 3:
Isle of Grom - disappointing. Unfortunately this area is locked behind premium pass. Is this the first ever tutorial area in a video game locked behind a premium pass? Well done. Note - I will have the pass regardless but in my opinion this should have just been added to the game without a pass or currency for 24 hour access.
Darkslides and Dark Catches - Should have been in the game from the beginning. Nice to see finally here.
Updated Bonelesses - Hopefully the height is improved. Good idea but nothing to get excited about.
New game mode speedlines - No. No one asked for this. Where is deathrace?
Tattoos - Great! Amazing! Thank you! Hopefully some cool free tattoos and a wide range in the future. I would also like to see them in skate pass and store. Very happy about this.
Cosmetic Loadouts - Yes! Perfect! This is great. 3 Loadout slots and more with payment option. This is excellent.
Brands in skate. pass - Love it! This is a big improvement. Thank you.
More replay editor effects - Very happy with this. Excited to create more vids.
Seasonal events - Good.
Looking Forward Features in Development:
New Social Game Mode Meetups - This sounds fun but other game modes such as vert jam contest and street contests should be prioritised.
Turn-Based Competitive Game Modes: Spot Battle and S.K.A.T.E. - YES!! We need this immediately! Spot battle is the one thing I want the most added to this game. I was hoping this would have been added in season 3. I also love S.K.A.T.E. Honestly creating a 'skate' game without these game modes from the start is criminal. I'm bored of the same repeated challenges everyday. Please add a super mega park for Spot Battle as well. These 2 game modes HAVE to be added in season 4 or sooner. I would also like best trick. It was in skate 2 and very fun. The main game modes that need to be added are Spot Battle, S.K.A.T.E, deathrace, vert contests, street contests, best trick, photo challenges, video challenges and hall of meat.
Matchmaking System - Yes! This needs to be added as fast as possible with text chat options and or proximity chat.
New World Area - This is super important. All future map areas should not be locked behind a premium pass or currency. We need more areas with hills and locations from previous games. I would love to see the mega park from skate 2 for example.
Board Wear and Tear - Good idea. I'd also like to see a slamming board emote and breaking it in half.
Finger flips - I think these were in every previous skate game. Should have been added from the start. Can glitch and do them now. Excited for these to be added.
On The Radar - I want everything added from the on the radar information section. Most exciting for me is legacy skate 1 to 3 spots and more legacy skate modes. Leaderboards should be added with spot battle and s.k.a.t.e. Again Underflips should already be in the game. And the same with player created parks. This was such a big part of skate 3. You would think all of these previous game modes would already be here. Thank you Skate Devs for the update. I love the game but as of right now the challenges are boring and repetitive. I need competitive game modes to keep me engaged. I would have preferred to pay full price for this game and have an actual story mode and all the game modes I loved from the start. I still would have purchased a premium pass for new gear. Skate 3 had tattoos and so many more clothing brands from the start and teams you could join with friends. I'm disappointed that we are not getting competitive game modes in season 3 but I'm happy with everything. Grom should have been added instantly though. Bad decision on whoever decided to make it skate pass or currency for 24 hour access. Final thoughts I play this game a lot and very happy with this update. The only things not mentioned on this list are pro skaters and Coach Frank. Having the option to replace Vees voice with Coach Frank or anyone would be nice. The performance of the game on PS5 is great. Season 4 needs spot battle.
