Hard soft-lock / no plater control / PC
Hi EA Support, I just installed the game and was excited to play but ran into a huge bug. When loading into the game, the game forces the "go to map prompt and immediately glitches my character in and out of the map. I have 0 control and cannot access the map, friends list, or settings. Restarting, re-installing and verifying files does not fix it. This happens everyime I load in. Can someone please reset my player/session rate. My username on steam is takesumrisks thank you!
PC Crash to Desktop During Online Party Challenge Replay
This report describes a consistent crash to desktop occurring in skate.exe on PC when playing in an online party with players located outside Australia. The issue does not occur in solo play or when playing locally and has not been observed in any other games or software on this system, indicating the problem appears specific to skate.exe. The crash most frequently occurs immediately after completing a challenge during online party play. Once the challenge ends and the replay begins, the game may stutter briefly, then freeze, and finally close to desktop without displaying any in-game error message. The crash appears to be more likely when the party includes overseas players, suggesting a relationship to network latency or cross-region synchronisation during replay playback. Windows Event Viewer consistently logs the crash as a DirectX-related GPU device reset. The faulting application is skate.exe, while the faulting module is KERNELBASE.dll, which is a Windows system library that surfaces application-level failures rather than being the root cause. The recorded exception code is 0x887A0007, which corresponds to a DXGI device reset event. This indicates that Windows reset the graphics device while the game was running, likely due to a rendering or timing failure rather than a hardware fault. The full Event Viewer crash log is as follows: Faulting application name: skate.exe, version 1.0.0.0, time stamp 0x69372601. Faulting module name: KERNELBASE.dll, version 10.0.26100.7462, time stamp 0xe9f9d656. Exception code: 0x887a0007. Fault offset: 0x00000000000c782a. Faulting process id: 0x1C58. Faulting application start time: 0x1DC72368C51255D. Faulting application path: D:\EA\Skate\skate.exe. Faulting module path: C:\WINDOWS\System32\KERNELBASE.dll. Report ID: 8bce4d33-3aad-4f23-b45c-9696595a7954. Based on the circumstances of the crash, it appears likely that the replay system is encountering a rendering or synchronisation issue when handling replay playback in a networked party environment with higher latency players. The stutter observed before the crash suggests a stall in the render or GPU command queue, potentially triggering Windows Timeout Detection and Recovery, which results in the GPU device reset and immediate termination of the application. This issue is fully reproducible under the described conditions and does not appear to be caused by unstable hardware, driver corruption, overheating, or operating system instability. The system remains stable in all other applications and games. The crash only occurs in skate.exe and only under specific online replay conditions, indicating a likely software or engine-level issue related to online replay rendering or cross-region synchronisation.
Teleport to friend, everyone becomes invisible
It’s become a frustrating situation but for some reason, when I’m playing in a party and then attempt to teleport to wherever my friends are playing, they become invisible, along with everyone else. Now, this is not an every single time occurrence but it’s happening enough that it’s causing irritation when I should be relaxed when hanging out online with my friends.
Graphics Settings Fail to Save (NOT Duplicate)
I read that this issue was "fixed" in the latest update, but I am sad to report that this is untrue. My game always launched is 640x480 now. The game only loads this resolution AFTER it loads my config. In the initial menu, where you can hit Start, my resolution is 1920x1080 (normal). When I try changing my config and applying the changes, no matter how many times I reapply the changes or switch successfully between Fullscreen and Borderless, the changes remain unsaved. Sometimes the message warning me of unsaved messages does not appear, but they remain apparently unsaved and stuck on 640x480. I am completely unable to save changes to my graphics settings that are respected when I restart the game. Things I've tried: 1. Removing %LocalAppData%/Skate, the local directory for configs, saves, and exports. This appeared to slightly improve performance, but does not fix the settings bug. 2. Verifying the integrity of game files on Steam. When I do this, the game consistently fails to validate exactly 3 files. These three files WILL verify if I check game integrity immediately after downloading them. HOWEVER, after launching the game exactly ONCE, *every time*, they will become broken, fail to validate, and be reacquired. Tested many times in a row. 3. Reinstalling the entire game AFTER clearing %LocalAppData%/Skate of all files and folders, hidden or otherwise. This reset the game to Ultra Fullscreen, but as soon as I tried adjusting graphics settings, the game bugged again. 4. Updated my 4070 TI Super to 591.44, the latest Nvidia driver for my card. No change. 5. I briefly attempted despair, which also failed to prove itself useful. Also, during this process, I crashed multiple times, so I am including a zip of my crash logs. (This update has been pretty rough. I really hope the game can survive this, because my community is losing more active players by the day.)
