SKATE 4 RUINS SKATER XL?

[EggieBeans]

Welp...
Skate 4 just got announced. Unless these Devs are commited they are going to have a hard road ahead. GL SKATER XL

[Bullwark]

Most likely..
If 4 comes out on PC Skater XL will cease.

But it's still EA. That means there's still a great chance they mess up a lot..
We'll see.

GL XL

i really dont know if i want to support skate 4

fans wanted a new skate for ages and ea did ignore us

now with the "unexpected success" of session and skater xl they announce a new skate game
same goes for tony hawk

also i dont expect anything less than a microtransaction riddled mess from ea

Agreed. Bare in mind the fact that it will probably take EA another 2 years for skate 4 to be anywhere near finished. It will either be a total success and be what the people want or it will be like u said, a game that costs £54.99 which is boring with and has not much to do

development on skate 4 hasnt even started, plenty of time for skater xl to shine.

[Rego]

Wow you all realize that Skater XL releases in a month, right? Skate 4 was only announced. Chances are they haven't even really begun work on it.... Won't be out for at least a year. Plenty of time to play SKater XL

I'm just happy skateboarding games are back. Tony hawk, Skate, Skater XL, Session. We have a lot to chose from in the next year. I'm excited.

After everything EA has done to their customers, I have no clue how people are still willing to buy their games? In the end im just glad skateboarding is coming back into mainstream gaming but yeah EA are not gonna be getting my money, screw them and their shady, pathetic and disgusting business practises

For me, I think I'd like this better just because of the controls. I haven't tried this game, but the concept sounds cool and sounds like it would provide a little more of a skill gap. I'd really like to try a demo of this game. I just watch videos for now. Can't make a real judgment till the sticks are in my hands.

It would also depend on how the games feel. I personally thought the Skate games got worst each time after the first one. The second one was coo. I didn't even buy the third one after playing the demo for a while. I just didn't like how it felt. Was some kind of weird floaty thing and the grinds felt like some weird weightless no resistance feeling. The first one felt like the character had some weight and the gravity felt like it was at a great spot. Wasn't floaty or overwhelming.

Be cool to see some halfpipes and bowls in this game (SXL). But as of know, it looks like there's no animations for air tricks and this is pretty much focused on street skating. Which is cool. Would still like to hit some very every now and then, heheh.

skater xl is trash arleady, so no, skate 4 doesn't ruin skater xl. skate 4 might be the only decent skateboarding game. and with tony hawk coming out, this trash game here is dead anyways

[kripcision]

skater xl isnt even a "real" game, the only thing it beats skate is the realism, otherwise skate has goals and is a full on experience. i would love to see skater xl beat skate, but its nowhere near beating it.

probabbly for skate 4 they need to take 4 or 3 years of development...
