Once they add that update for custom lobbies it'll be fun to just chill with a few of my friends.

I haven't gotten a party going yet, but isn't that the same as custom lobbies? I've hit a wall, challenge wise, but I'm still spending way to much time on this. Just chilling with the multiplayer, getting annoyed at the dudes pounding out 10 million combos in jam. I get it, it's fun to curbstomp casuals, but take it to challenging if you're that good. I've been playing those a bit too and the average there are way less than those dudes dominating jam. Ted talk and Wendy's parking lot etc. I'm still having fun with it. I'm Motstand on PSN if anyone wanna goof around in a party. In a European time zone. Add me and let me know you're a goon in the message

At launch you could poo poo all over everyone in almost every mode in your average jam session with low six figure combo skills and I felt like a shiny golden god. Then all the kids learned the game properly and I have to try again

 I'm stuck with a twenty years old muscle memory of dominating a handful of stoned friends. Still able to bust out a six figure combo fairly regularly, but that won't cut it anymore. The best is when you see the people busting out those lines from AndyTHPS' videos. Old man me is sitting here judging like where's the creativity? Back in my day...

My problem is that there's been too much stuttering at times when it wasn't the very good players and it turned me away from trying online until they at least do something about the netcode. I did a split-screen match the other day and the performance took a hit there, too.

I'm about to smash my loving controller with this grey gap challenge. gently caress any challenge that requires a lip trick. I go through, get the grind gap, manual over to a quarter pipe, and because I'm not 90.000000000000000 degrees from the quarter pipe, it does a loving grind instead of a lip trick. I almost had it once, but leaned the wrong way and bailed at 98k. Almost had it a second time, but forgot that it was supposed to be 50k and ended the combo at 30k. Literally every other attempt so far has had me doing a grind. You'd think that if I grind the rail that goes straight to a quarter pipe, I'd be going perpendicular enough to get a lip trick, but nope, loving nose slide. I've tried forcing it with a special trick that is a lip trick, but it still just grinds anyway.

I'm having most success nailing them by pressing down(+grind/lip). Left or right are an immediate grind and up seems pretty dicey as well.

It's worse the other way around for me, I like starting tricks off with a lip but it seems like the system for resetting balance meters doesn't apply to lip trips so no matter where you hit a lip in a combo if your meter is hosed from an earlier lip trick you almost insta bail with incredible speed. The only actual helpful thing I can suggest is kickflips and heelflips if you have space for them are great to quickly line you up properly but I'm not quite sure what gap you're talking about so it may be too cramped and also maybe you're already doing that because I'm trash

i feel like this game is so much more apm intensive than anything else i ever play. sometimes if I play for too long at a time it feels like my hands unlearn how to play the game or even use a controller properly and I start intuitively doing things like hitting bumpers with my thumbs and then trying to rebind ollie to left trigger to see if that helps. (it didn't) You know how sometimes a really wanky guitar dude starts fretting over the top of the guitar? It looks like that but even more stupid Jezza of OZPOS fucked around with this message at 13:26 on Sep 26, 2020 |

Getting fingerfumbles and slamming in anger over here as well. Finally making the Over the Deck gap in Roswell only to miss the revert is pretty frustrating. And not in a Dark Soulsian I suck kinda way. More like a DID YOU SEE WHAT GOD JUST DID TO US? way and long story short I ordered a new controller.

I have literally never hit that gap correctly, I got it for the all gaps trophy with a landing that was juuuuuust short, like I clipped the lip and ended up starting a new combo with the acid drop that triggered because I had R2 held. Fuuuuuuck that gap.

It's driving me crazy. I'll ask my Double tap buttons to change lip tricks and raise the multiplier? I can’t remember if the challenge allows for it or not, because I didn’t think of it at the time and instead spent like 20 minutes throwing myself at the same lip over and over and trying to stay balanced for at least 5k points to pull it off.

My new favourite place for specialty skater challenges is the hanger, you can hit all the grab/flip specials in the half pipe in the middle of the room then transfer out and land in a special manual (if needed) without a speed-killing revert with enough momentum to make it up onto the lip of the QP on either side, which is long enough to hit multiple special grinds (if needed).

I spent about 45 minutes doing that this morning. It just takes practice and a bit of luck. I was doing it on a high rail too to make the timing of the revert on the way down easier You almost don't need to touch anything for the very start and just tiny tiny taps so it moves super slow. The luck part comes in the final wild swing going to the right so it takes you off the lip safely. I've no idea if it made a difference but I had the best luck doing it with an axle stand after I assigned it. Also assigning the move to up or down + grind so it's easier to hit

Does anyone else have tricks that they always replace? Madonna and Sal Flip are always removed ASAP for me, they're the two that seem to lead to most bails

NonzeroCircle posted:Does anyone else have tricks that they always replace? i hate the grab tricks where the animation has you facing parallel with the ground but you let off and are in line, so naturally when you spin and do the trick you try and let off when your guy is facing perpendicular but nope now you've bailed. it happens on a bunch of special tricks, and I spent a few hours just practicing timing on spins and most tricks don't do this. I guess you really need to go off timing not visual cues but when my stats are just starting out the timing changes as you get more.

I've never learned to land a madonna comfortably even though it's traditionally the highest point grab (on account of the difficulty).

NonzeroCircle posted:Does anyone else have tricks that they always replace? I leave the Madonna on because it is the easiest way for me to get special. Either a 360 madonna off a vert, or a 180 madonna plus a kicker gap. It is tricky to land because you have to have the board perpendicular to here you want it to be before landing. When I'm first building up special, it's easy for me to remember to keep the board perpendicular to land it, but I always end up forgetting or am in such a rush I get confused and end up doing a madonna and bailing. So I'll use it to build special and then hopefully ignore it for the rest of my combo.

I always finish a grab trick with a quick flip trick. Then there's no problem aligning the board with wherever you want to land. Except for judo, the most stylish tricks of them all. Judo's should always be held until the last second.

NonzeroCircle posted:Does anyone else have tricks that they always replace? Is there a list of point values for different grabs? I can find it for the old games but not the new ones. What I got used to as a kid with THPS1 is basically that if it looks like you're going to bail a madonna you land it instead, and vice-versa. If they're still worth more points it's worth the effort to learn to land 'em
