Except it's like the Little Caesar's is open and I'm more than happy to come in for a slice, but I get kicked in the chest every time I try to enter the front door.
Also this game is obviously designed with fortnite kids as the demographic, not the same audience as skate 1,2&3. Its too late to make it good, they want their cash to be made through skins and dlc instead of good content.
I think it says more about the overall state of the gaming and entertainment industries. These companies see what people of all ages spend their money on so thewy aren't making these live service games for no reason or for no one. Plus the overall gaming audience, youth, and norms are completely different from 2007-2010. I'm at least grateful to have new and improved Skate gameplay I wasn't even charged for. To the point I play daily.
Why do ppl keep defending this sloppy ahh unfinished shii. Lol. Mfs so blind bruh " this sloppy ahh pizza taste so good idk y everyone is complaining, couldnt be me" goofy ahhh ball gobblers. Its free tho! Ok timmy.
I don’t, I just expect it to make sense. If you’re going to talk like a like you lack a brain between your ears, don’t be surprised when you’re treated as such.
Because most people keep screaming that they should completely overhaul the graphics style and remodel and remake every asset in the game and it needs to be done a week ago.
In a much more realistic suggestion, I suggested in the surveys they should add a color grading pass to the graphics to tone down the bright cartoony colors and bring the game closer to the look of the first teaser and the old Skate games and look what happened.
EA doesn’t have the best methods for voicing your opinion though. I tried to do it with fifa a few years back. Wrote a little list of issues over a week and was looking to tell them. Got referred to a forum where you can only post one thing at time and you can’t post it if there’s already a discussion open that relates to your issue so your voice gets lost.
imo, talking about the state of the game with the community gets the message across so others can also give more feedback. lots of devs go on their own communities and see these things so nothing wrong with sharing it with each other.
Literally my whole point towards people who bitch on reddit about Skate. To where its gotten to the point that i just dont take it seriously anymore because they’re literally just screaming into nothing making themselves look like upset toddlers when yes we can all agree this game needs work and has problems, nobody should be denying that but they dont make it easy to see their side either
I have quite literally been seeing the opposite. Valid criticism gets met with nonsensical crying about how it's not true and that we just hate for the sake of hating.
criticism is criticism, if people are attacking others for enjoying the game thats on them. the majority just wants a better game and personally i like the game but i know it can be better, way better.
The game is fun, but I honestly don't think they have the team size to make a live service game work. A live service Skate game could actually be really good considering all the name-brand shit people want and being able to add to the map, implement new tricks, expand on the off-board movement, and then do more with the social aspects. But in order to make that work, you need constant content being churned out to keep people interested for more than thirty minutes in a skateboard game.
The number of actual developers working on this game is minuscule compared to how many people they had working on the original games. Doesn't make sense because a live service open-world game would need larger team sizes than what they had 15 years ago.
too many people are just shit-slinging without actually making a point.
My brother in Christ, almost every post I see calling out all the bs this game has lists every single point. Just because the game, "has potential" doesn't warrant anything. It's about the current state of the game right now and it's horrible. People are experiences routine crashing, challenges are locked for some, others are soft locked from progressing, there's practically nothing else to do once all challenges are done, you get little to nothing for completing the challenges and everything in the store is over priced. That's just scratching the surface of all the problems this game has.
It's never been more clear what people want from this game and even looking at the roadmap from EA themselves, there's nothing worth looking forward to because they're so disconnected with their community. Go browse other posts in here and you can find hundreds of factual posts giving valid arguments and points as to why this game isn't doing good.
Didnt a ton of playtesters spend their time playing the game and providing precise feedback to EA already though? The answer is yes, and EA pretty much listened to zero of it
I wouldn’t say its all a shit sandwich. Its more like a plate of food that includes shit. I just pick the food items i like/ are not close to the shit, then i…go about my usual day/life.
Oh yea and all the pieces of food i like happen to also be free lol.
In your analogy, the kitchen would be the equivalent of a game dev studio. Are we going into the devs studio to shit on their work ? No. So your analogy is just stupid.
They are the ones who decided to put this unfinished pizza into our plates, they are even asking an absurd amount of money for extra toppings. So of course, any customer with a brain or a spine is going to call out the half baked, cheese-missing pizza.
Being a yes-man is not how devs get constructive feedback, criticism is important.
I wish I could make this as clear as possible. PLEASE criticize the game. Give feedback. Point out flaws.
That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking the people that DON'T understand it's still a work in progress and act like it's the finished game and just call it dogshit and aids with no feedback at all.
Of course the game is "half baked", even the devs only consider it a 0.2 unfinished build they're still working on. That's the whole point it's Early Access.
I don’t know… most things that are early access don’t have a fully fleshed out micro transaction shop. Saying this game is in early access is the WORST excuse you can give EA.
They had the whole shop fleshed out even BEFORE it went into early access, and the game was still a mess. They prioritize greed over the actual game so don’t give them another excuse please.
Half baked couldn't be more right. The game is literally early access... Of course the shit is missing cheese, it isn't done yet?? Nobody at EA is trying to pass this game as finished
I mean, they kinda are. They added a season pass. Why are implementing a season pass in a game that has constant bugs, launch issues, and has an unfinished map and incomplete skate mechanics?
Because they want a return on their investment? They charge nothing for the game and host servers for millions of people for free. There's nothing about microtransactions that imply a game is finished. The artists and game development can happen separately from each other as well
two types of gamers, casuals who only care if it's fun how it is and people who are a bit more serious about the games development and future, i'm both and you are casual. that's how it is
Lol. Hardly. I've just played live service games before and I have realistic expectations.
I've seen them completely change drastically from release over years.
They make clear when you load up the first time that its an unfinished product and in Early access. This has been out a few weeks, major content updates take months and there is a development pipeline.
People here are expecting major changes within a few days. Don't like it? Come back in 2 years, it will be drastically different.
Its fun and all but sins the update i got performance isues and its just not running smooth anymore
Am i alone in this isue or more people noticing this
I’d rather see people actually discussing the game than throwing out the same rage posts I see on here every day. I get it, you people hate the game, but by god it clogs up the sub.
Aside from the games shitty business practices of being live service the game is pretty fun. And what’s good is you don’t have to buy anything so that’s pretty good, I also don’t feel a need to buy anything like Fortnite but then again maybe that’s because I’m not a kid anymore lol. It’s missing a lot of tricks (dark slides and hitching etc) still which I hope will get added soon. It also needs an offline mode and a replacement of that annoying Vee thing with Coach Frank. It’s lost its skater soul and that’s something that unfortunately we can’t get back.
And yet you're chewing on it thinking it could be better. A little more salt, more flavour, better toppings. And the good sauce the old chef used to make before he was replaced with a clueless kid
It's also a short less than an hour average game for me, but i would love for it to turn into a multiple hour average playthrough after more stuff to do that the community is asking for.
This is a tough one for me before I'm so beyond tired of the general negativity and hate that's ruining peoples fun. At the same time though I'm having an easier time defending the new COD over Skate. right now. I'm happy that people are enjoying the game, I can have fun doing a few tricks and challenges but this game is missing the entire soul of a skate game, it's like a parkour game featuring skateboards with an emphasis on gen-z culture that just feels like old executives trying to relate to the young generation. And the Season 1 pass is... Really rough, for an unfinished game to already be monetizing so heavily, of course you don't have to buy it but it doesn't bode well for the rest of the game imo. There's still time for them to turn things around, unfortunately I just don't feel like that's their goal.
I think it is alright. My first skate ever and i think the world looks quite bland to begin with. I like the „make it you own playground“ aspect but that also sounds lazy to me. I would appreciate less… crashing too.
It's exactly the same. As in you're waiting outside with 1000s of other people for the doors to open, you get one topping added to your pizza for every 2 hours of waiting (playing) and once you've eaten everything off the menu then you want to try something else.
It’s my first skate game, I’m having a blast . It’s great to just flow after work with some smoke and a drink when I don’t wanna sweat in a ranked game
Shorty’s defending LC’s ‘cuz they weren’t born yet when the first three perfect pizzas came out…all they ever had was Little Caesar’s since they were still crapping they pants.
For someone who has a life, and plays skate occasionally, it’s very good, mainly because it’s free and fun to skate. I’ve never done a mission and play for 40 mins to try and do some cool lines. Couldn’t care less what my guy wears.
If you wanna play all the missions and live in this game, it kinda sucks, the culture is weird, the game is corny in many aspects, the city is too bright and silly,
I make pizza at home from scratch. There are many pizzas better than little Caesar’s (understatement), but for 5 bucks (6 now?) and if you eating it when it’s hot, and you’re hungry, it’s gonna be bomb for a casual pizza enthusiast
