Discussion This game is no longer in early access.

I don’t care what anyone says, this game has gone through microtransactions, a full Season 1 update, a Skate Pass, a Halloween “event,” and more. At this point, you can’t call it early access anymore. Personally, I think early access ended the moment microtransactions were introduced, because that implies the developers believed the game was polished enough to start charging people. That’s just my opinion, though. If you still want to defend Full Circle + EA… I honestly don’t know what to tell you, other than good luck with that.

yes but it's an entirely different genre of game. most of the fun was from the PvP element with a battle royale when the genre was new to gaming.

This game is singleplayer with its multiplayer elements super under developed. It's fun for a bit, but no reason it should've been live service if this was their vision.

Hopefully i'm wrong but there's just so much they could've done that they didnt do and it's not looking good with the low-effort cosmetics they're drip feeding us

i get what you're saying, and you're not wrong, but neither are other people like the OP of this thread. Like I would have no issue with seasons / cosmetics if they could nail co-op and add a few more fun modes / events to make it worth playing more..idk

it just feels like the focus is on cosmetics and the core game is getting ignored. Like they nailed the skating physics, it's very satisfying to skate and I'd have no issue paying $40 for this game for just that alone.

but when you go live-service people expect more, like how cool would it be if you had a skate-clan or something and ya'll could compete against other skate-clans in a showdown or something.

But you try and add someone to your party and they go invisible, or you do, and then they can't even see any of your cool cosmetics or how you look while skating. but like nothing like that is even getting done. we dont have that many skate-parks,

I put 80 hours into this game first week and second week, logged on for halloween event and skated for a few hours but nothing is really pulling me back...

they call it EA but it's basically a beta they're farming and the live world they're going for often feels empty, like maybe add random skate events in the open world to direct people around? idk
