Skate 4 Not on E3 2017

Published

on

Earlier this year a tweet made by Daniel Lingen, one of the senior managers for community engagements at Electronic Arts gave born to numerous rumors that got out of control among the Skate games series fans. The rumor pointing in the direction of Skate 4 being currently under development was shortly invalidated by the EA CEO Andrew Wilson whom clearly specified that no sequel to the Skate 3 was on their current agenda. Even though the dreams of many got ruined instantly there were still some sort of hope among the die hard fans out there speculating on the unannounced titles scheduled for the E3 EA Play presser.

As the E3 2017 came and gone it also took away the fans last hope, thus giving birth to an avalanche of frustration that rolled out massively on Twitter against EA, as fans were assaulting the company’s Instagram accounts way back since 2012 demanding for a new episode aka Skate 4 to the franchise.

But why is there such a disagreement between the developers and the fans request, is the question that now sets on every skateboard games enthusiastic out there. Well, in my opinion, in order to give a satisfying answer to this we need to take a short, back in time travel and make a summary analysis.

Our first stop is of course the year 2007 when the first Skate title is released as a direct rival for the Tony Hawk Pro Skater series that comfortably ruled this niche back then. Instantly as it became available Skate caught extremely good to the audience as the new approach of focusing onto physics and making the gameplay feel more realistic to the user really paid off. As there are no unlocks available, nor other things such as upgrading your board and no skills rating the only thing that will get you limited while playing is your imagination and your actual skills as a player. The action takes place among the streets inside a fictional city called San Vanelona that is so nicely built being enriched with lots of details that really recreates a true realistic experience. The world is animated by lot’s of different kind of pedestrians, security officers, taxi drivers, all sort of chatter sounds and really nice music. The ingame main characters perspective also offers a large variety of animations for stunts and tricks actions as well as for the simple way of rolling around thus adding plus value to the realistic feeling.

The career mode is my favorite as it follows the story of “you” while trying to build yourself a name in the skateboarding world by earning cover spots on dedicated skateboarding magazines such as the Trasher and the Skateboard Mag.

Skate also set’s the base for the online community as players are encouraged to upload their snapshots or 30 seconds videos captured by using the game’s built in editor to the official website in order to share it with other players among the globe.

Two years later in 2009 Skate 2 gets live and proves to be a great hit, breaking down some records in matter and installing itself as the champion of skating games available to be played at that specific date. This second episode had a really nice storyline that reviewers said to have had a great impact in the overall score the game received because the action takes place in the same city, yet five years later. Among the new things that Skate 2 brings to the scene we find: hand plants, foot plants, hippy jumps , the option for the player to step of the board and explore the city on foot and also the possibility to move objects around in order to set up your own line for performing stunt actions.

Once you have a spot like this all set up by your preferences you can share it online so that other players can try it too.

Just like in the first part you are able to record the tricks you like, yet Skate 2 benefits from two new cameras that will boost your videos to a higher standard and one other thing that really makes this game great for the online community is the fact that you can now take part to all sort of new cooperative goals when in multiplayer mode, acting just like a real crew.

Another thing worth mentioning is that in Skate 2 you can now easily jump from one goal to another just by picking it on the map compared to first part, where you needed to use the subway stations to navigate from one to another.

One year later in 2010 Skate 3 is presented to the public and for those that didn’t played the first two versions this would the title to buy , yet according to IGN “the gameplay in Skate 3 is as fun and varied as it has ever been in the series, but it just isn’t all that much different from what we’ve seen before”.

Still Skate 3 brings a new addition in the term of a new social network where players can view a skate feed presenting each one friend’s videos, graphics used to customize their boards and some other interesting stuff, just like on Facebook.

The career mode takes a bit different approach compared to what you were used to in the previous parts as now you are challenged to build a whole new skateboarding brand from scratch. Building notoriety on the streets is the way to go, as once you become popular others will join you helping you to reach your goal. Your team mates can be both AI or real humans in case of the online mode.

And now let’s try to answer the question that sits on every skateboarding games fans tongue: Why no Skate 4?

Here are some answers:

1. The EA Black Box a subsiadiary of EA SPORTS set in Canada whom developed the Skate series was closed in 2013.
2. Skate 3 really experienced moderately success compared to other games released by EA.
3. The whole sum raised by the Skate franchise in 6 years was easily out beat by the income from titles such as FIFA, STAR WARS: BATTLEFRON and MADDEN in just one year
4. While 90.000 skate fans send a petition to the company demanding a new sequel if we look at FIFA’s 7.000.000 Instagram followers we get a better understanding of how things really works for EA business.

We might never see Skate 4 released, yet this doesn’t mean that no other game will take it’s place, because as there is still demand there will be for sure at some point another developer that will take on to this niche and fill the hole in the market.

Currently as the gaming niche extended a lot in the last years, both in the direction of mobile market as well as the direction of online browser based games I believe that skate games fans now have a really extended collection of titles to “quench one’s thirst”.

Best Usenet Newsgroups for Gaming

Usenet newsgroups may seem old-fashioned to many. In reality, they are the perfect place for players who love the classics but are always open to new games and strategies. These internet communities are also ideal for those searching for gaming material, solutions to issues, or a conversation related to their favorite video games. Whether you are an experienced player or entering this domain for the first time, Usenet holds a ton of resources that could change how you interact with the gaming world.

Understanding Usenet Newsgroups

Usenet newsgroups, which include gaming groups, are like message boards. People can post messages and articles in different categories. Each group is a special place for certain topics – this makes it simple to find the subjects you want to read about most. The unique characteristic of Usenet lies in its decentralized structure. This permits a much more open interchange of details and information than what is seen on regular social media platforms or forums.

Initially, Usenet was utilized only for academic and professional exchanges. However, it soon turned into a prevalent method for communicating among hobbyists and gaming groups. Presently, even though Usenet has been surpassed by newer platforms in terms of popularity, it continues to be an important tool for knowledgeable users who value its special mix of staying anonymous with fast communication. Knowledgeable users also love access to vast archives containing historical information and software applications that are no longer available elsewhere on the Internet.

Encouraging Growth and Motivation: Resources for Child Development

Child development is a complex journey marked by critical milestones where each stride forward builds upon the foundation of the previous one. Acknowledging children’s individual needs, pediatric therapy services tailor strategies to foster physical, emotional, and cognitive growth. To support this transformative process, environments that prompt curiosity and engagement, coupled with advanced educational tools, play an instrumental role in shaping young minds. These resources, carefully selected and applied, can significantly amplify a child’s developmental trajectory. Keep reading to learn about the effective ways these tools and techniques can aid in advancing childhood milestones.

Pediatric Therapy Services: Enhancing Developmental Milestones

img

Pediatric therapy services support children as they reach and surpass developmental milestones. These services, often provided by skilled therapists, address various growth challenges, ensuring each child has the best possible start in life. From speech and occupational therapy to physical and behavioral interventions, these professionals tailor their approach to meet the unique needs of every young patient.

Therapists work relentlessly to motivate children, fostering an environment where milestones are not merely achieved but celebrated. Through personalized, one-on-one sessions, children gain the confidence and skills necessary to navigate their developmental journeys more easily. The trust between therapist and child is a solid foundation for consistent progress and paves the path for lifelong learning and adaptation.

Resource provision is a key component of pediatric therapy, equipping parents with the tools to continue therapy practices at home. Effective communication between therapists and families ensures a cohesive strategy that envelops the child’s daily routine, enhancing the therapy’s impact. It also allows parents to identify subtle progress, reinforcing their pivotal role in the child’s developmental success.

If you’re looking for pediatric therapy in your area, a simple Google search like “pediatric therapy Arizona” will help you find local providers and services tailored to your child’s needs, ensuring they receive the specialized care necessary for their development.

Optimizing Play Spaces: Creating Environments for Learning and Exploration

img

Optimized play spaces are vital platforms where children engage with their world, build skills, and unleash their creativity. Designers of such areas pay astute attention to elements that promote safe exploration and intellectual stimulation. A thoughtfully arranged play environment serves as a place of entertainment and a crucible for burgeoning development.

Professionals incorporate a variety of tactile and visual stimuli within play areas to cater to diverse developmental needs and interests. Stimulating sensory experiences is central to cognitive and motor skill refinement among younger populations. The intentional selection of colors, textures, and interactive features sparks curiosity and encourages physical activity, which is fundamental to healthy growth.

Accessibility remains paramount in creating play spaces, ensuring they cater to children across all abilities. Including adaptive resources within these environments demonstrates a commitment to inclusive development, allowing every child to participate and benefit from the joy and learning play offers. Such inclusiveness fosters a sense of community and belonging, which is essential for emotional and social development.

Affording children autonomy in their play advances self-directed learning and problem-solving capabilities. When children feel empowered to make choices within their play, they better understand their preferences and abilities, setting the stage for confidence and self-awareness — qualities that are instrumental as children grow and transition through life’s stages.

Additionally, incorporating elements like fake plants or outdoor plants from retailers like Nearly Natural outdoor plants into play spaces can enhance children’s sensory and aesthetic experience.

Interactive Learning Tools: Technology and Resources for Cognitive Development

Interactive learning tools harness technology’s power to solidify children’s cognitive development. These digital resources provide an array of engaging, educational content that aligns with critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

Software and applications designed for children’s learning capitalize on the allure of multimedia to capture young minds. Effective education solutions provide children with stimulating challenges that are age-appropriate and aligned with developmental targets.

The discerning use of educational technology in classrooms and homes can reinforce concepts and skills taught through traditional methods. It creates a harmonious blend of instruction and interactive play, thereby cementing a child’s understanding and retention of information.

Providers of such educational platforms are ever vigilant, updating content to reflect new educational strategies and the latest academic research. Thus, children equipped with these technological tools remain at the vanguard of current learning methodologies, all while engrossed in fun and dynamic ways.
Overall, caregivers and educators can provide comprehensive support for children’s developmental journeys by integrating pediatric therapy services, optimized play spaces, and interactive learning tools. These resources nurture their physical, emotional, and cognitive growth and cultivate a lifelong love for learning and exploration.
