You mean you only want to blitz once and again? Then sounds like the update worked as intended.

You actually worrying about other peoples play style? Just tell them or don't.

Right click on the game -> Properties -> Betas -> backup.

Correct me if i'm wrong but wouldn't that sent you to v4 (2020 vanilla release)?

This will take you back to the First Batch Release of the Game before the DLC and there is no Shiva, I have the same problem with Shiva, I can't stand much Survival Missions as I used to

V7 for life.

That's right. It's better to start learning to play with normal characters from the beginning, than s*ck with cheap OP ones.

And I say again just as I said with Aertes, are you seriously worrying about how others play in a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ beat'em up of all things?

Download in internet old version v07 13648.... Change some files in steam folder x64 (don't copy ''steam_api64.dll'') and all files from data and play via steam in OLD and BEST v07 version with normal skater 3 and shiva - It's very cool. And no crash. Now we very happy with friends.

Nope, I'm just suggesting the only possible solution that makes sense.

How does V4 make more sense than V7 though?

And when you're done, copy the V7 folder as is somewhere so you can restore it after any update manually.

I mean V4 is the only version you can legally rollback to. It's also way harder, because of lack of "god mode" represented by V7 Shiva.

Idk about pirating V7 though, but if it works, I doubt it would allow you to play online, which sucks.

I think online works as long as all the players have the same version, since it's p2p. My scores still seem to be submitting despite being V7 scores. If not, there's always remote play which isn't too much different for input latency than normal online play. It's actually a bit better for a couple of my friends.

As for pirating, that could work, but if you were like me - you knew V8 was around the corner and worried the patch would make it less enjoyable, and thus simply copy pasted the game folder to revert after.

I've been worrying that they'll screw some things up again since I read the patch notes in the last year's June. In fact, I was worried about buffing the characters, which could make the game even more easier, but it didn't happen in such a degree as I expected. Instead they filled levels with some useless garbage and thrown in random bosses in assistance to real bosses, which turned Mania+ to a total mess. The only reason why I don't make a backups of older versions is because I play mainly online co-op, so even if I could revert I would find the lobby completely empty.
