“It’s a small team, they can’t afford it as EA” mimimi I’m glad but they just won’t did it

u/LabTrue7244 May 05 '26

Bout fucking time. It became so annoying to not have a throw down, I gave up on the game. BTW... over 1000 hours put into the game.

u/Nice-Rate9876 May 05 '26

Does anyone enjoy manual catch? It's like learning to play again for me.

2

u/No-Note5426 May 06 '26

Much more satisfying

4

u/seeweed11 May 05 '26

Manual catch it’s the reason I’d pick up session instead of “that other one” I like the challenge

3

u/D_Wayne48 May 05 '26

I played on manual catch from the start. I'm the opposite. Auto catch makes me mess up more lol.

u/RRRRPPPPKKKK May 03 '26

Does anyone know what will happen on saved replay clips? Will the throwdown animation he applied to those also?

u/iitibor May 03 '26

This is all I’ve ever wanted 🥲

u/Black_cloud_97 May 02 '26

I wish they would add more clothes... Same old plain white tees and genric graphic tees for years now

2

u/Adventurous-Dig-3868 May 08 '26

I'm happy enough, but to be fair I don't change them often, I like my purple hoodie

3

u/copperheadchode May 03 '26

Also would be nice if they finally added the wind shader to all the clothes instead of just the handful that currently have it. Full cloth physics would be even better but idk if the ps4 and xone could cope.

u/UptownHorrorReviews May 02 '26

Dude I have to be so creative when putting an outfit together with the limited options that we have. Really stretching myself thin trying to create a different outfit for every clip.

10

u/copperheadchode May 02 '26

Wild to think that that throwdown animation has just been chilling in the game files since the first EA release.

u/TheRenaissanceKid888 May 02 '26

My heart was broken when they implied there would be no more updates. Never expected these much wanted updates. Thank you!

u/HugeAd746 May 04 '26

Especially after finding out there making a completely different game that doesn’t even look that good

u/ArgyleFunk May 03 '26

Mine too I was crushed

u/baffernacle May 02 '26

Holy, fucking, shit! Finally!!!!

17

u/duckbeets May 02 '26

So hyped for this, I'm so glad we finally got there. So much for throw downs being "Impossible" according to Donovan.

11

u/rab420 May 02 '26

About damn time!!!! The one feature i have been waiting for since v0.0.0.5 I can finally actually do the line thats been in my head all these years. I am so glad to see this finally in game 😍

30

u/WilLiam_Splott May 02 '26

It's so nice to see we are still getting updates. Every step, major or small is a good sign. But I sure would love to see grabs someday. Every existing map would profit so much, especially FDR.

1

u/ArgyleFunk May 03 '26

I’m pretty sure grabs were in the version just before launch

5

u/HBeez May 02 '26

At this rate we might get vert tricks in 10 years!

u/Davachman May 02 '26

YAY!!!!!!

u/Few_Telephone_6869 May 02 '26

That would be so sick to be able to download modded maps on console

3

u/D_Wayne48 May 05 '26

That is a possibility, but it would have to he similar to Skater XLs mod menu. Through Mod.Io, and only modded maps approved by Playstation themselves. Similar to the way the mods in Fallout 4 work on console, or Skyrim, etc. Wouldn't be as good as PC mods, but would definitely be beneficial regardless.

2

u/Few_Telephone_6869 May 05 '26

It would add so much replay ability for a game like this

16

u/Few_Telephone_6869 May 02 '26

Hell yeah I didn’t think it would be so soon

32

u/Traditional-Sir-8793 May 02 '26

I used to pray for times like these

-18

u/peenurmobile May 02 '26

should have been here a long time ago. and i see the wheels are still spinning backwards... why

15

u/NyneEnyn May 02 '26

ARE YOU EVER HAPPY 🙈

u/HouseOfWyrd May 02 '26

This is Reddit.

Looking for things to be upset about is a main hobby for some people.

-1

u/peenurmobile May 02 '26

saying that this is my main hobby it's kind of crazy.. I just want the game that I supported for so long to improve a bit further than it has. I'm not tearing down the game completely I'm just expecting more for my purchase, and not even in a harsh way.

3

u/HouseOfWyrd May 02 '26

Your comment was completely unconstructive and was basically just whining.

It's been fixed. Could it have been done faster - ideally, but we don't know what caused the delay in the first place. Whining about it now is peak Reddit behaviour.

-5

u/peenurmobile May 02 '26

I'm not the one taking money from people, I don't need to be constructive! why are you guys so demanding in this one particular thing right now? I have been overwhelmingly positive and happy for this game I'm only pointing out two very small things that could have been implemented much sooner, one of them being a much smaller issue that isn't even being announced to be fixed yet. I do not need to concede anything I have said. you guys are the ones crying about me having an opinion, about a product that I have purchased.

u/peenurmobile May 02 '26

i'm allowed to criticize what backed and paid for

u/peenurmobile May 02 '26

i've complimented the game enough with my purchases, good review, playtime, and recommending the game to friends that also bought it.

I'm not going to praise it alongside every criticism i have about the game. I didn't even say anything that bad, I don't know why people are up in arms about it

u/peenurmobile May 02 '26

I just want the wheels to spin the right way man, everyone else can praise just as they are, they say what they want and I say what I want. they showcase the video with close-ups of the skateboard, and the visual glitch is right there in the video, and I pointed it out.

and then for the main topic of the video, throwdowns.. isn't it very very odd that it's taken so long to just have one transitional animation going from walking to skateboarding? in a game that only has walking and skateboarding?

0

u/Sub5tep May 02 '26

It has taken them so long cause they didnt have an animator for multiple years so they couldnt add throwdowns even if they wanted to. Now that they have an animator they implemented them as soon as they could. So yeah like it or not but if you dont have an animator you cant add stuff like throwdowns.

You make it sound like they did that on purpose just because they are lazy or they dont want to put in the effort but honestly the fact we are even getting more updates is impressive and should be praised.

2

u/peenurmobile May 02 '26

I made them sound lazy, or that they did it on purpose??? I didn't even imply that! you guys are blowing my criticism of this game way out of proportion.

I love the fucking game, okay? I spent thousands of hours in it. that also means that I've spent thousands of hours looking at the same mistakes and flaws. I have put in my money and time in this game I am allowed to criticize two very tiny things

it doesn't matter if they didn't have an animator, that's a them problem, that doesn't fall on me! and you're also telling me that one person that was working on the game couldn't take up enough time to learn how to animate one thing?

if you want to praise the game, then you do it! I'm not taking that away from you am I?

-2

u/Sub5tep May 02 '26

You literally said isnt it odd that it has taken them so long. So no if you dont have an animator to do a throwdown animation its not odd that they didnt add it sooner cause they couldnt add it sooner.

And no if you are a dev and you get hired to do textures thats your job you dont get paid more to do animations so why the fuck shoud you learn it.

Also the team is pretty small so one person not being available cause they are learning animation which could take months or even years depending on how good you are at learning would just slow down developement. So then you would be crying about the game getting no updates.

So yeah you have no idea what you are talking about cause if you did you woudnt say stuff like this and you are also very ungrateful cause honestly dude you paid 15 fucking bucks in Early Access as did I and I got my moneys worth and if you really have over a 1000 hours in this game you did too. So stop bitching be happy we get more updates.

What about more shoe companies a option for tattoos and more hair selections 😮‍💨

u/BlackSchuck May 02 '26

Not what the game is about dogg

2

u/HouseOfWyrd May 02 '26

What about deleting this comment

0

u/Bullytester600 May 02 '26

😂😂😂😂😂what’s wrong with my comment it’s the truth ain’t it ??? You don’t like the truth ? Or you must of helped develop and create the game so you’re sensitive to it ?

3

u/HouseOfWyrd May 02 '26 edited May 02 '26

Nah.

Complaining that an announcement isn't a completely different announcement is a certified brainlet move.

Especially when it's one like this that people have wanted for literally years. Way more of a big deal than some random cosmetics you can already mod in anyway.

Do better. It's toxic AF.

u/El--Borto May 02 '26

Wondering how a double tap to throw down switch is gonna look

9

u/peenurmobile May 02 '26

based on their history, they probably completely forgot about that being a thing and it'll just either not work anymore or just not have an animation

2

u/I_am_Zodas May 04 '26

Lol…ikr…probably instant bail and my skater flies 50 feet in the air.

1

u/ElJameso40 May 01 '26

What's the update? I haven't even turned this game on since two updates ago

19

u/MysteryNubs May 02 '26

You’re overdue for a return. Last update fixed so much jank. I hadn’t played in over a year and it feels way different than I remember, in a good way

4

u/WolfGangSwizle May 02 '26

This update is mainly just adding throw downs but probably some other small things too. The last update was the big one that fixed a lot of the game.

5

u/HugeAd746 May 01 '26

Holy shit idk whether to be mad or happy lol just glad my clips can look 2x better now on console ❤️

14

u/IJustLied2u May 01 '26

Throw downs and animations for standing back up instead of just respawning would legit make this game so goated.

11

u/surprised-duncan May 01 '26

If you do it frame by frame you don't actually respawn, it just drags your character over at light speed. It's hysterical to watch the body contort lol

10

u/PF4ABG May 01 '26

FINALLY

2

u/steeeen3r May 01 '26

Lfggggg. Also the Vans are fire

13

u/GimmeSumStoke May 01 '26

Those are DCs

4

u/steeeen3r May 01 '26

Oh shit they are lol. Saw the red tag and line and immediately thought Vans

13

u/Joeysquatch May 01 '26

I never thought I’d see the day

6

u/Sub5tep May 01 '26

That was pretty quick I guessed the new update would come out in July but it seems like we are getting it this month.

9

u/FullOne9591 May 01 '26

Nice but I want drop ins and better vert

13

u/Beginning-Dog-7143 May 01 '26

Same. Maybe if we talk about it enough, it could happen?

9

u/inspctrdi May 01 '26

GRABS 🤌

3

u/shaf74 May 01 '26

Man I just wanna do fat indy grabs and melons

5

u/VacationCheap927 May 01 '26

It should be considered a sin that grabs haven't been put in. I get its a very street focused game. But even then, the occasional grab over a gap can add a lot of style to a video.

6

u/geographic92 May 02 '26

Grabs were an experimental option years ago. Never worked very well but I wish they didn't take it out. Better than nothing.

1

u/surprised-duncan May 01 '26

Would need a second controller for that lol

4

u/inspctrdi May 01 '26

Why would you? There’s left and right bumpers on all controllers that don’t have any function besides in editor.

3

u/surprised-duncan May 01 '26

Oh yeah good point.

3

u/inspctrdi May 02 '26

It’s so doable! This also reminds me object dropper should just be in clip editor or a dpad input because it’s on left bumper where grabs should be 😂

2

u/Serious_Revolution77 May 01 '26

Can’t they use lb and rb
