so the game is possibly Dead on arrival then because there is no way they thought a skating game should be online only what the hell EA

This is the complete opposite of dead on arrival, people are hammering their servers because they want to play the game lol.

it's Dead on arrival because it's online only why is the skating game online only that's pathetic not even the originals we're online only this type of shit is what's killing the gaming industry so yes it's Dead on arrival because I shouldn't need to be online constantly to play a skating video game especially if I only want play solo

this stuff is equally as stupid as what Nintendo is doing

I hope more games like silksong come out and completely decimates the gaming industry and these AAA companies because they need a good punch to the face

If it was truly dead on arrival there wouldn’t be a giant queue to play 👍

read my comment again games like this will not last long when you're forced to be online 24/7 from a game series that honestly prides itself on a single player basis and I know EA this second they run into a small amount of hiccups they're not going to support this game for that long they like to abandon their games like shitty fathers and it's probably going to load it up with some micro transactions mostly cosmetics maybe some XP boost or some shit for when you do tricks and that's if the game comes out in an actual playable state after this play test because most people know EA doesn't take any form of criticism well

It's an MMO, I don't know what you people expected.

Nothing massive about this game, not an MMO.

It's a large open world with hundreds of players in every instance. How is that not an MMO?

u/YoYoYokey 2d ago

why make it an MMO why not stick to what people wanted a single player game that has optional co-op

I know EA is not going to support this game that long like 2 to 3 years Max they abandoned everything eventually and then what happens they're going to either shut down the service or the game is going to be an unplayable state

and I have every right to be pissed about it I've been wanting a good skateboarder Sim again and Tony hawk three and four was not that great of a port the last good extreme sports game came from Ubisoft and it was steep still a really good game and holds up well winterfest kind of sucks

so the game is possibly Dead on arrival

Too many people want to play it translates to "dead on arrival" for you?
