Game Crash Every 8 Minutes, Sometimes Crashes Entire PC
I keep having the game crash to desktop on me without warning while playing Skate. It happens every single time, almost exactly every 8 minutes. No matter what I do—whether I change graphics settings, try different setups, or adjust anything in-game, it still crashes at the same interval. About 25% of the time, it also causes a hard crash of my entire PC (full shutdown). previous update worked fine, and was playing the day before the new update went live. I’m on the latest version of Windows 11, as of 3/19/2026 What I’ve Tried: Switched graphics settings (low, medium, high) Tried different combinations of settings Tested multiple times in different sessions Nothing stops the crash; it happens every time, consistently. My Specs: GPU: NVIDIA RTX 5090 CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D RAM: 48GB at 8000 MHz Storage: NVMe SSD, ~13,000 MB/s read and write speed
Softlock Megathread [Last Updated: 09/03/2026]
Hello, fellow skaters! We continue to see reports of players getting soflocked at various points. The old thread has more than 9005 comments, and sometimes it is difficult for the team to organise and spot new issues within all the reports. That's why we have decided to open a new megathread to work on the most recent softlock issues. If you are softlocked, please provide the following information: Platform Mission/Challenge? If Mission, what step in the Mission? Can you describe how you got stuck and provide some screenshots? Username you're playing with (Gamertag, PSN ID, or EA ID - no emails. We'll assume it's the account you're posting with as well.) Please be as thorough as you can when sharing your information, as this will help the team investigate and help unstuck other players in the future. Also, in order to keep you informed, we will update this thread every week with the number of players we have unlocked. We will include a description of the issue we worked on. If you have been unlocked, please let us know. If you haven't been unlocked, please bear with us, we are working on it. __________________________________________________________________ Week [March Sun 8th - March Sat 14th] Softlocked at "Checkout the Extravert Skate Shop" mission: Players unlocked: 176 Various mission progression issues: Players unlocked: 703 Total player unlocked: 879
Neighbourhood Progress reset & stuck at 0 / 0
Description of the issue: Right after the Season 3 maintenance was over and I hopped in to check things out, all of my neighbourhood levels and progress got reset/bugged out. They are simply stuck at 0 / 0 and will not update or progress at all. Can't buy any product boxes either, even if it shows that I already have multiple boxes unlocked in said neighbourhood. It's been like this two weeks. Steps to trigger/reproduce the issue: Start the game as usual Look at the 0 / 0 on your current neighbourhood and wonder if all your progress gone Write bug report and hope for the best. I've seen a handful of other people post on reddit and the discord with the same issue. Still no acknowledgement as a known bug, which worries me a ton. Platform: PC (Steam) Troubleshooting steps already performed: Validated files through Steam. Reinstalled game completely. Attempted to run a few missions both old and new in every neighbourhood hoping it would fix things. No luck.
Connection Lost | Error code: 3982909855
I started encountering this error for the first time today before the weekly reset for the event. I can't find any additional information on this specific error except a thread from playtest era in search results that I can't access. It happens after between 2 and 10 minutes of playtime consistently, usually after closing a menu but sometimes while playing, the game screen goes black for a minute and then this error appears. So far I have tried verifying game files in Steam, full uninstall/reinstall along with deleting the %localappdata%\Skate folder, repairing Javelin anticheat through the EA/AC folder installer, launching the game through EA instead of Steam, and updating windows. This issue has been brought up more recently by multiple other users and has not as far as I can tell been addressed in any official way.Boneless animation mismatch at player height 1
I've noticed animation inconsistencies with height 1 players and certain emotes in the past. I wasn't too bothered by it because they're only emotes, it doesn't really affect the way I play the game. Bonelesses had the same problem pre-Season 3 but I assumed it would be fixed with the patch but the hand still doesn't stay on the board throughout the trick, only at the beginning and end.
UI Overlap & Texture Issues on AMD GPUs
Hello, I have this weird texture when i enter the shop, and it goes everywhere in my game right after. I checked my GPU, everything's fine. Same for my monitor. I wonder if it's not a Skate. disfunctional thing. Can someone give me advice ? Thanks in advance CM EDIT: ❗ Workaround: Go to AMD's driver site and find your graphics card from the "Search or Browse Drivers" section Click on "Previous Versions" and download the one labeled "Adrenalin 25.12.1" Download and Run the AMD Cleanup Utility Reboot, and then run the Adrenalin 25.12.1 installer Reboot again and launch the game
skate.points from the loyalty program not received
I bought 13,200 SVB for €74.99 on the website https://store.ea.com/skate/, but I haven't received my 100 skate.points from the loyalty program... can anyone help me? (Two days ago, I bought the Season 3 Starter Pack for €4.99 and I received my 5 skate.points.) I'd also like to say that I think it's really unfair not to offer skate.points to those who have already bought the Welcome Pack or Welcome Deluxe Pack. We can see that they earn points, but we're penalized for supporting the game and its developers "too early"...
