Potential Game Additions and Community Ideas

I've been playtesting this game on and off for the past year or so. I have compiled some of my thoughts and ideas on what could potentially be added to the game, and where we as a community could provide value. Please see below!

  1. I think challenges need more "challenge". Adding specific grabs, flip tricks, and grinds to a challenge would be a great way to reward more credits for a tougher line.
  2. To add to that, allowing us as players to create our own challenges could help add variety in challenges, which I've seen a lot of people complain about. I wouldn't offer credits for completing user-made challenges, but if there was a hub where we could vote on our favorite challenges, they could add the best challenges to the map and reward more credits for the tougher ones that we've made. A ratings system would help filter out the bad user-challenges, allow only the best to be added to the map (to prevent spamming for easy credits on crummy user-made challenges), and allow us to add more cool, unique challenges to the map.
  3. Make a platform for submitting our videos and add credit bonuses as a prize. Example - give a photo of a cool rail set, or a video of an example line in an area. Have us all submit our best line in that area, and let us vote on our favorite ones, winner gets a prize (credits, or a cool custom skin or ramp?). To promote voting, maybe make it so that you have to vote on 3 videos before submitting your own. I think this new type of challenge would be a fun way to promote creativity from the players, and give an accessible platform for us to share our favorite lines.
  4. Theme the loot boxes based on what you want to get. Ex - make a box full with small kicker ramps, and give the more rare options cooler skins, designs, or maybe slight physical variations to the ramp. I'm not one to really care about cosmetics/apparel, but I do love having many ramps to choose from, and like the idea of slowly unlocking them based on what I want. Maybe even add separate boxes for color themes and materials that you can use in custom parks.
  5. Trade ups for loot box items? 
  6. Thank you for reading this far - this one is probably my favorite idea, and something I personally plan on doing myself. I want to host legit tournaments/competitions, x-games style. 3 heats on a half-pipe, bowl, or skatepark. Not judged by points in any capacity,  but judged by actual "judges" who rate based on style, flow, difficulty, variety, and creativity. I'm going to make a discord server at some point, and set it up so that there's a screen-share for each of the judges to watch and rate each round. No re-dos, penalizing falling, and perhaps one day some cool prizes if people get into it? I also have been an avid park maker, so I will definitely start making parks (once it's added) and try and host these types of events.

Feel free to comment your own thoughts and ideas
