[QUOTE=xianlee;34877190]Dunno weather to buy it or not.. I can't get gold on the race track let alone beat the time I set the 3rd time I played it, I think it would piss me off after a while if I couldn't beat silver[/QUOTE]
There are like 50 other race tracks you could get gold on ;)
Can only try your best I guess, I think I will plumet because the gameplay is epic

I cannot wait to see what glowing armor and snowboards are like.[/QUOTE]
May have just went through every one of those songs on Spotify I like and putting them all in a SSX playlist.

According to Twitter someone got 1:42. Ridiculous.

Holy shit, I'm struggling to get 2:04
[QUOTE=Da_Maniac_;34880386]Holy shit, I'm struggling to get 2:04[/QUOTE]
I know right? That said, I don't really know the best route down. I think I need to start using those tunnels, the only one I take is the wide one on the left with a big kicker before it
I still have my copy of tricky. :buddy:
I can get a 2:03 but I keep making mistakes.

In the full game it'll be much easier to get that track under two minutes, seeing as you can get better gear.
I'm rather looking forward to all the gear and stuff, I wonder how much it'll affect stats. Mac flips ridiculously quickly as it is.
Also, I know this is a minor point but I think the whole Geotag thing is awesome and I am really excited about carving around mountains picking them up and effectively playing hide-and-seek on snowboards

It's awesome to have a kind of unlimited collectible.

Near the beginning of the track there's a railroad under which there are two red pipes (middle and right) and a normal path on the left. Follow the path, it'll then have a little path on the left side going up which will then lead you to a MASSIVE drop going straight to the round tunnel.
I just went through one of the rail tunnels at 300km/h while spinning in Uber mode.
I feel kind of dizzy
Is there a point were your tricky just dies no matter what? There have been times were I am going along just find doing tricks and it just drops.
So I put my opinion that I think it's simplified and easy and possibly too fast, any reason why that's dumb?
Should I give it another go? It just seemed impossible to crash unless you try since the board gravitates to the ground.

You probably clipped the wall/ground but you didn't even notice as it was that much of a close encounter, happened to me plenty 'o times :v:

You seem to think that SSX should be the Skate of snowboarding.(try being really realistic) SSX at its core was always fast pace and crazy and now there is hardware that can handle it's vision.
Your complaint about it being too easy because your borard gravitates toward the ground is also kind of empty because your board only does that if you stop rotating/tricking. Anyone who is capable of playing SSX will probably not use that feature because it cuts off score; at most it is to help beginners get adjusted.
Lastly, about not being able to crash. I would assume that the idea behind making it easier to stay on your board is not to try and make the game easier but to keep the game going fast. It's punishment enough to lose your combo or speed from making a bad decision.
I played all the SSX games on PS2 and they're some of my favourite games for several reasons, but I don't have a console so I can't play the new game.
Glorious PC gaming master race isn't always so glorious :(
4 days left for Europeans!

No, it wasn't ever supposed to.
Where'd you get such information?

Yeah, as I found out yesterday, it is really very possible to screw up runs, and you can definitely be punished for mistakes. It's not so bad when you're just playing casually, but when you really go for it every millisecond of error means a lot.

Also thanks for the various friend requests
[QUOTE=Jackald;34895429]So the demo... is it just those 2 events, the trick it and race events? Like you don't unlock anything more in the demo?[/QUOTE]
It's a demo, what did you expect?
