Theres nothing to do?
Why keep asking for feedback when you’ve listened to nothing that literally EVERY player has been begging for for years? You can’t even progress at your own pace, you finish all the boring easy challenges and have to wait for them to refresh the next day! Into the same soulless boring challenges on repeat! No story mode, fine. Didn’t listen to what anyone wanted and gave us an AI bot instead of pros, fine. But where are the game modes? Where is hall of meat? Where is skate? Where are death races? Where are any of the online MODES? Where is the mega park at lesst? Also regarding customisation why can’t we even get jewellery, tattoos, decide how to wear hats & hoods etc. everything we had on old skate games. The actual gameplay and physics is great but EVERYTHING IS MISSING!! Sorry but we waited 15 years for this game, this feels unacceptable.for the DEV's
im gunna make a compiled list of the good and bad things as a person that has played the skate series since i was a child. goods: building is actually cool just wish i had a private park so i could make something for the community to try like skate 3, flick it system doesnt feel bad updated and i like that i can climb most things when that wasnt an option before hand; matter of fact i feel like the parkour is really cool but it takes away from this being ya know a SKATE GAME. my bois at the park after a couple tricks in a bowl irl arent just doing gainers over stuff idk its odd. thats it for the goods unfortunately. bads: no fingerflips,darkslides eliminating pages of tricks that have existed since the first game. you cant advertise how this NEW version of the game has a bunch of new options for tricks and not even have the full catalog of original tricks. most of the tricks just look like im jumping off the board (doesnt feel like you guys have sat down and watched how feet and legs go off a board to do a trick just how the board is supposed to flip.), no one wants a loot box based progression system even if its free,not being able to break bones is lame and childish, the ai model voice over is annoying and unnecessary cause of izzy, izzy is an annoying hipster that chirps in your ear every 2 seconds to say "FoOtY" even though getting footage means nothing in this game/the replay system is 100% worse than skate 3 and even skate 2. the visual representation youve provided this game is for mall skaters aka people who like skater fashion but dont really skate aka someone who wears a thrasher hoodie and vans but cant ride a board. the visual style of the game is horrible idk who thought that the sims and the skate series has a fanbase that intersects at all but they need to be straight up fired. no pro skater missions/what missions exist dont feel like old missions from the older games they feel like tony hawk missions hands down (doesnt feel like you guys have played through any of the skate games imo just watched slide shows or something), you keep saying this is a community based game but the community has been pointing out a lot of these issues for YEARS, no skate brands in said loot boxes just generic stuff that wouldve been given to the player starting the game instead of starting them out as a homeless person. you made meat man a 25$ pack when you would get him for BEATING HALL OF MEAT AS A REWARD EVERYGAME? theres no broken bones. the only real skate brand i saw chocolate? ANOTHER 25$ pack. wtf man. i only saw girl wheels and even those cost real money. this is a disgusting practice. what you should have done is provided the community with REAL skate brands and make your generic stuff buyable if we wanted too like the grim reaper set up. gives you guys incentive to actually create for the community instead of just take from the culture. only character body modification is for **bleep** and butt,only like 5-6 guy hairstyles and 2 pages of girls hair styles (im a dude with long hair and i dont feel represented), every face is androgynous when SKATE GAMES ALWAYS HAD WOMEN let alone representation. if you wanted to represent women skaters you couldve LICENSED WOMEN PROS TO BE IN YOUR GAME MAKE TEAMS WITH THEM ALONG WITH THE MEN ITS NOT THAT HARD THAT WOULDVE BEEN AMAZING ACTUALLY AND IM A DUDE SAYING THAT. not by washing the game down into a game where you dont know if you are a he she or them thus giving the game no representation for every day regular people when the skate series was an in the life of a every day skater. as a man that waited 15 years to play this game; i could only stomach 10 hours of play time before re downloading skate 2. your team doesnt know what skaters want edit:ive put more time in to find more that youve missed. cant grab your board while grinding. which was a feature since skate 2. i figured id be able to finger flip off of rails in this game for how much ads were done for how many new tricks were being added to the game. it feels like you guys spent so much time making a parkour game that yall forgot this is a SKATE game. edit on top of edit: no comply's dont inheritly do shovits irl. its just a push to ollie. another example of your team only knowing skateboarding from videos and not having any real skaters consulting your team edit on top of edit on top of edit my god guys: no underflips. removing again pages of tricks. yall really didnt play the last games and with how everything is set up im 100% expecting these tricks to be added in a 40$ throwback trick pack or some bs because of how predatory the rest of the game is with micro transactions and theres a dickies hoodies for free before anything a real skater would wear. this is gross. i wouldve paid 60$ for a GOOD skate game and more for dlc. i paid for every dlc in every skate game previous. this game straight up ruins the legacy and tries to take money from people over pixels.They're pushing the game into an early grave
I was somewhat of accepting of the corporate greed, until now. Lowering the currency rewards on the daily missions to pretty much nothing... along with the event currency only reseting weekly. The urge to hop on daily does't exist anymore. These issues wouldn't be too bad if the game had anything else to it.. but it doesn't. The map is boring and lacks character. It's also very very small. A few days of hitting the daily challenges and you've experienced the full map... but until now, i was happy doing the daily challenges because it rewarded a decent amount of currency. All rewards come from currency... why not have a challenge system with 150+ challenges that all reward a decent cosmetic? Pretty unique challenges such as "skate into 15 pedestrians wearing red shirts" or "skate 15 different blue rails across the map" But the next challenge doesn't unlock until you've completed another. Similar to the RDR2 challenge system. Or collectibles that reset weekly/monthly. This would give an incentive to actually skate the entire map outside of challenges. Repeatedly too, not just 1 time around. "Collect 100 bearings hidden around the map to unlock exclusive VANS skater pack" for example. I understand that paywalls = income. Simply charge for the game and people will still buy it. And you'd still make money! I understand that fornite set a precedent for microtransactions being successful. It works for a pvp game where the experience is in the online experience and every 30 minutes the game resets and is just as fun. But this doesn't work for a freeroam sport themed game. On top of these ideas, a paid £5 dlc that unlocks some cool boards or cosmetics is something i'd still happily go for. As for right now, I see how unhappy the player base is and that this game will soon be taken offline and be unplayable. This is the sole reason that outside of the founders pack I refuse to spend money for cosmetics I like, because the game is ONLINE only at some point in the near future all my hard-earnt and spent money will result in nothing. Which is assume is the mindset of other players too.
Congrats, you made it worse.
New update brings so many exciting features like constant crashing game, bugged co-op challenges and many more, you patched launch glitch which made this boring game fun. Instead of adding new challenges, new missions, new gamemodes you added skate pass, and challenges are still the same and still i have to wait whole day till i can play the game for an hour (that's how long it takes to finish this repetitive challenges). You know fortnite actually added interesting features to the game itself, not only cosmetics. You added few new challenges that you can get skatepass currency and you can do it only ONCE? AND WAIT 55 DAYS FOR A NEW ONE? I was really hyped up for this update, really invested, reaserching what will be new, getting hyped and today i just opened the game, looked at the map and my hype instantly went away, you know how to let people down.Am I the only one who gets annoyed by all the “congratulations” screens?
Once you unlock an item from the shop or the skate pass you get bombared with three screens of the game “congratulating” you for your unlock it’s annoying I’m very aware I just unlocked something seeing as I just clicked it I don’t need 3 unskippable scenes telling me I unlocked it very annoying when I’m just trying to unlock stuff fast
