I don’t know how best to describe this, but in the older skate games, doing tricks and grinds on the board, there felt like a natural weight, because of gravity. I think that doing the same in this one feels lighter, which feels harder to pull off cool tricks with
I think it would be cool if there was a feature added to actually install certain pieces on the board like for instance heavy or lightweight trucks (or lengths for boards) and it actually affects the way the riding feels for all players
The board physics have felt off this week since the arrival of 0.28 and Early Access. Prior to that, boards felt weightier and had stiffer trucks/tighter turning circles. Likewise, ramps feel slightly faster now, with slightly less resistance over surfaces generally.
I find myself wondering which of these problems are gameplay tweaks and which might be tied to server load. In my experience across playtests and Early Access, periods of higher demand coincide with spottier game response - the reason being that the server is calculating all physics. With greater demand comes greater lag, leading to looser gameplay.
