now what speed glitch are you referring to? the revert speed glitch? if so that was a terrible bug that plagued this game since day one that myself and a huge portion of the community are happy its gone not because other players were using it but because it was happening to us constantly by accident.
like i said, i've played every day since launch. thousands of hours. talking and playing with hundreds of people and i can confidently say that ABSOLUTELY nobody complained about the revert speed glitch. Thats the only reason i'm on the forums now tbh because the decision to remove that specific speed glitch seems out of the blue and unwarranted
Just because nobody complained about it to you doesn't mean a huge portion of the community the realistic community that I am and have been a part of for a long time didn't get absolutely annoyed and frustrated by it on a daily basis. Here's the thing, at the end of the day it was a bug that was not intended by the developers and effected EVERYONE whether they liked it or not so them removing it should not have surprised you. And whether you believe it or not many players did complain about it to the developers. I've said this before but again I don't care how other players play as long as it doesn't effect the rest of us and that bug 100% effected everyone and many of us are **bleep** happy it was fixed.
Where are you getting this info from? discord or what? You're really sitting here claiming a "huge portion" of the realistic community were actually bothered with the revert speed glitch when 1. its not a glitch that happens by accident often and 2. didn't "break the game" whatsoever. Yes I did say even non trick liners hit the speed glitch by accident but its rare because you need to revert at a specific time and sometimes even at a specific angle.. and ur telling me the realistic skaters are hitting the revert speed glitch by accident so much to the point where it was a genuine concern? sorry buddy, not buying it. i wanna emphasize the amount of hours i've played and not for bragging rights, but to show i truly understand how the game works and that i've played through all the patches that attempted to nerf trick liners in one way or another. Us trickliners really only have 2 "glitches" in our arsenal that allows us to do what we do and that's the pop glitch and speed glitch. they took away the OG pop glitch which i think was better and honestly more "fair" then the current pop glitches we have. Like ok fine, people complaining about pop glitches to the point the devs take action? Sure i can definitely see that but you're not gonna sit here and convince me that the revert speed glitch was something that desperately needed fixing. im even convinced that like 90% of the people that currently play skate didn't even know how to speed glitch purposely. So your claim that it was a huge talking point within the realistic community just sounds like cap if im being completely honest. Like dude, im talking about tech that mainly trickliners and verters do and you're saying the realistic community are over the moon about the *super niche* revert speed glitch nerf? Please stop larping, It's not good for the longevity of skate. Skates gameplay up until a few weeks ago catered to both trick liners and realistic skaters and absolutely nobody was making a huge deal about the revert speed glitch, and like i said, *way* more than half the people who play don't even know how to do the glitch or realize when they hit the glitch accidentally and im confident in saying that. There must've been a very loud minority of players that got EA to patch it out because im telling you NOBODY was crying about tech that only a small handful of people were actually doing consistently, So that's just cap, sorry.
