I'm playing Skate and Destroy for the first time ever, fuck this game is hard after playing THPS for years. Just spent about half an hour trying to do a pupecki grind.
[close]
That game was so dope. Still the toughest of them. I remember at one point being all about doing nollieflip back 5-0 frontside 180 out like Mike Carroll in modus. It was so damn hard, looked all choppy and dumb when I did it, and got me hyped. I also loved how in that game ollieing like 10 stairs was kinda hard.
[close]
On the china banks level there is this ledge that runs into a wall and i had endless lines to it where you had to time a flip trick perfectly to make it over it.I loved that game so much,getting hit by the lame subway,nollies looked dope.I always wondered if the ramp hidden in the building in sf hills was supposed to  be phelps ramp the widowmaker.
[close]
I was all about trying to time it right so I could do 360 ollies off the ledge over the subway train. Also, when time ran out, I was all about trying to kill the dude chasing me by outrunning him for\long enough time, rather than just leaving the level. Subway level that's easy, when he comes at you, you just ollie onto the top level, and he gets stuck at the bottom screaming.

see what im saying? now that was a fucking brilliant game, way ahead of its time, as i stated at the beginning of the thread. it has real skate spots that are actually good and what people wanted. i got sick of skate after like half hour. i played thrasher for years. then i started doing expert mode, you have to press square right when you hit the ground otherwise you will bail. if you hit it too soon you will also bail.

also i was super into nollie flip 5-0 fs 180 out too... especially since you cant bs 180 out of grinds in that game haha

the manuals sucked in that game but i ended up finding ways to make them look good.

subway the best is to nollie half cab over the rail and clear the entire train track... you can even ollie over the train too. subway is the best level, i also love doing lines at venice beach muska ledge, i always did heelflip fs tail to fakie, then sw fs blunt on muska ledge.

there is a sick roof gap on that level too... i remmber there being a double set that seeemd impossible to clear but i could wallride it and make it.., some kid told me he ollied it but i think hes full of shit.

south bank such a good level that mega long downhill ledge across the water is insane you get speeed from those banks at the beginning

washington square you can gap from pillar to pillar on the qps its insane

even the first level is really awesome. that whole game is just good, emb, thehills with that gap down to another hill... fuck bs flips for days

Finished downloading. Only had time to play a few mins. I skipped the Jason Lee crap and put it straight onto hardcore mode.

Really sick so far. If you want to do a flatland tre you have to actually push a few times and pop it properly. And grinding takes more effort

20 minute limit on the demo is a lot better than last time. But, I don't know. I didn't think hardcore mode was that hard at all. You just have to pop higher for tricks on flat. To grind you need to aim it a little more carefully. I kind of feel like it was a little too similar. I'm going to buy it, but I feel a tiny bit disappointed.

I'm pretty stoked on it. Hardcore mode is really good and noticeably harder to lock into grinds. Also tricks look wayyyyy better out of grinds/slides.

Being able to drop objects anywhere adds a lot.

Also making the running faster so you can drop your board and hit shit with speed is awesome like this... http://skate.ea.com/gallery#searchType=AUTHOR&query=JayPrask&slice=search&galleryType=ALL&subType=VIDEO&contentType=SKATE_REEL_DEMO&filter=ALLTIME&itemId=2744

looking forward to the full game

Make sure you do the skate school cuz there's a few fun spots in it that you can't get to if you skip it.

holy cow this is nuts. hardcore mode makes playing so much more reward just being able to get into a slide or grind.

The demo was pretty fun, hxc mode was definitely different from regular. It was really hard for me to do the grinds I wanted too, but I'll get used to it when I get the game. Kinda bummed on not getting to do the customed skater like the Skate 2 demo.

If you pause and go to the challenge map, you can choose to teleport to the training area. There's some pretty fun stuff in there, more so if you use the object selector thing.

i played hardcore mode, loved it.  Then went back to regular mode, and hated it.  Once you go hardcore you can never go back.  Kinda like porn.

I was hoping this demo would tie me over for the next month making the wait for the full easier, but dammit, it just left me wanting more, and now this next month is going to go by even slower.

^ that's about right haha

hardcore mode is a lot of fun. frustrating at first due to the extra effort it takes to get into grinds, but it feels much better

Hardcore mode is reminiscent of when you first played Skate 1, and it was actually hard and rewarding when you landed something.  By now in Skate 2 I can pretty much do whatever the hell I want and now its kind of boring.  Popping out of grinds looks 100x better too.  Blunts do look fucked though.  I like how you run fast as shit now too.  Psyched to see what the whole game is like now.  Ill probably play the demo a couple more times and then just wait it out.

anyone else do a tre-flip dark lipslide, replay it and watch in slo-mo to discover that your board spins 2/3rds of the way, and then magically stops mid-spin, and then spins back so that you're only really doing a varial flip dark lipslide?

bogus, bro, outraged

Running as fast as you can at that "Stair Counters Rejoice" set and doing tricks down the stairs is the funnest.

It does it with every 360-shuvving flip trick. they all stop half way, dark slide, then finish the rest of the flip.

if you can get an online game going, you can go a little further outside the boundaries restricted to that demo. You can get to that massive set, bowl and bank to blue rails, also in the clock tower courtyard you can go a bit futher out each of the entrances to explore.
