(IDEAS) ~400hrs playing SKATE.
IDEAS:
- Backpacks, bags, or accessories.
A lot of the time a skater needs to leave the house prepared. You need to bring drinks, food, money, music, tools, wax, parts, etc. Most skaters keep this stuff in their car but since we don't have cars I want a backpack. Branded backpacks, bags, etc? You could literally sell a Loui Vouiton bag to the girl skaters and sell Nike, Addidas, HUF, etc for the men.
2. Piercings
Self explanatory. (ears, facial, multi, lip, eyebrow, dermals, etc.)
3. Tattoo rework.
I know you guys just brought them to the game and I love them. I personally wear the largest and most vibrant versions of the Stacked Frogs and the Leopard on my arms. I really think we need to rethink how we applied Tattoos because if you think about it, we need more mappable tattoos for each limb. Please allow like 4-5 per limb because some people have a lot of tattoos like myself and would really enjoy placing others elsewhere. Plus the more tattoos we can wear the more we buy. ;)
4. Board shapes.
This was teased about for Season 3 and I haven't heard much since. I would love to see old school boards, newer shapes, widths, etc.
5. Grabs while powersliding.
We just need an animation for grabbing the board mid powerslide maybe have the option to drag your hand too and touch the ground? Would make for a good feeling being able to choose just a grab slide or a grab slide touch.
6. Freestyle moves.
I was skating and trying to think how we could apply freestyle animations to a skater that's already riding the board. When riding the board regularly, if you press the right bumper nothing really happens. We could turn the right bumper into a button you can hold, using the left and right sticks for alternate moves, you could then hold the bumper and use the sticks to adjust your skater. I'm imagining like longboard aura farming, walk the dog, etc. This could really elevate the feel SKATE already has and I am jonesing to be like Andy Anderson.
7. Hippy Jumps (IMPORTANT!!!!)
Season 4 has blundered my hippy jumps by accident. Something has changed and now when I hippy jump off my board and press B (kick) quickly, my board no longer continues forward and I don't stay in place anymore like we used to. Now, instead of the prior interaction (staying behind as the board goes forward) you just keep going with the board and I have been trying to find a new way to launch the board ahead of me and cannot figure out a new way.
** HIPPY JUMP EXPANSION: I would love to see a few hippy jump improvements and these are my ideas: I am the sole creator of the hastag "#hippyjumpparkour" on TikTok. I do some crazy stuff not gonna' lie. I would love to see hippy jumps be possible during manuals or maybe during shuvits too. Why I want the hippy jumps during manuals and shuvits is because I'm imagining being able to manual\shuvit right before a hippy jump allowing me to enter my hippyjumpparkour in different ways. I want there to be more bounce on the board as it hits things head on like a real wooden board would do, if you imagine doing a shuv it and kind of shooting the board forwards with your back foot (board goes spinning forwards) you could then bounce it off obstacles like poles or ledges or walls and get back on it.
Same thing for manuals, sending the board forward in a manual (manual, hippy jump input, press kick button quickly) and since the manual was initiated first, the hippy jump would happen and your board would ride on its back trucks for a few feet before tipping forward? this would help tip the board upwards for sending it off a staircase onto a handrail.
I seriously need the hippy jump quick kick board send back though. Do not overlook this one please.
8. Casper slides, Primo slides, Pogo
Just imagine 4 skaters pogo-ing down the street. Case closed.
10. Ability to throw board out in front of you. Didn't the older games have this? We should fr bring this back because it'd be so fun for throwing it on a rail or whatever.
That's all I can think of for now.
Just wanted to say finger flips are sick, and the new clothing you guys have made recently is some of the best work I've seen yet. I love the long sleeve shirt under the short sleeve shirt. Something about it.
