I think we need to contact EA and ask if they planned to come out with a skate 4 and request some features. I have a ton of features to request to them…. and I think you guys too!! 😀
PLESE FELLAZ, when you have cool ideas, don´t hesitate to write your skate 4 feature ideas in the comments below. Maybe EA is watching us here to catch up the ideas from us, ..the real skate community – So let´s collect here the coolest features for a new skate title!!
You should have a nice house that has 4 rooms:
- living room with a big flat screen to watch skate vids that you unlock as well as credits and any video recordings you saved etc. Also have on the side a magazine rack with all of the magazines you got on the front cover of to look at.
- Trophy/medals room that holds all your trophies/medals you won from competitions.
- Clothing room that holds all of the clothes the companies that you are sponsored by give you.
- Skateboard room with all the boards bought to swap when needed as well as free boards/trucks/wheels from the companies you are sponsored by.
- your backyard which is your very own highly customized skatepark built to your liking.
– – – – – –
- Boards should be able to break and when you do a pop up should show where it asks you to pick a new board from the board company your sponsored for which will have other boards you bought as well that you did not break OR buy a new board from the shop. IF you don’t have enough money for a board and you haven’t got a board sponsor yet, your filmer will loan you his board which is the stock EA Skate board that you will get in the beginning of the game. If you buy a board but your not using it you have to go to your house to get it and if it breaks you buy a new one unless you pick a free board from your sponsor.
- Each skater should have their own tweaked physics of their own to be more realistic.
- Much bigger world with more skateparks.
- Train stations should return.
- This is how the story mode should be. The objective of the game would be to become skater of the year and the way to do that would be to do competitions. First you would do some goals/local competitions/inside magazine photos then get on the cover of a skate mag. After that you will unlock maloof money cup. Beat that and you do more goals/local comps as well as you will unlock your first sponsor which is board and unlock first round of Battle at the berrics. Then after goals you do another mag cover which will unlock GVR competition. Beat that and the same thing, goals/comps/mag shoots as well as unlocking second sponsor which is trucks and second round of Battle at the berrics. After goals and the 2nd skate mag cover you will unlock dew tour. Beat that and same thing as before with the edition of Wheel sponsor and 3rd round of Batb(Which is optional but fun to do and you get money after you win final round as well as another trophy for trophy room and free gear.) After goals and 3rd skate mag cover you unlock StreetLeage which is 3 stops. First stop you have to win then some goals, unlocking shoe sponsor and 4th round of BATB. Then unlocking 2nd stop of SreetLeague. Beat that then goals/shirt sponsor and 5th round of BATB. Then unlocking 3rd and final level of StreetLeague. Beat that and you win a watch, a pair of shoes and a ring which are all covered in diamonds as well as $50,000. Then you do some more goals and the final round of BATB as well as the 4th skate mag cover. Beat BATB and you win a trophy, some free gear and $10,000 Finish off the goals with a cover of a skate mag. (You also get money and free gear for the other comps as well just forgot to mention.) Then you unlock the final competition which is X-Games. Beat that and you get $100,000, gear and trophy. You also get nominated for skater of the year (which gets you a medal) as well as a final insane trick at the X-Games you do for the cover of the latest skate mag.
- If you get skater of the year 3 times in a row which means beating the game 3 times, you unlock some cool gear, more money and some other things which I have not thought of yet.
- The competitions you unlock (not local comps) should have realistic narration. The local ones can be funny and stupid like they normally are.
- The maloof money cup/dew tour/GVR should be accessible while free roaming in open world since these are outdoor parks. SL/X-Games/BATB can still be accessible but via entering a building.
- Keep create a park but update the pieces. Have a search button when searching for parks.
- Have the filmer talk to you like in the skate 1/2 but have an option to turn it off if wanted.
- Customizable griptape.
eddy h says
I also think there should be day and night cycles. I don’t know if you included this in number 3, but i would like the ability to customize how much concave you have and what size deck you have. For example, say if you have more pop, you can ollie higher. If you are riding a 8.0 in the game, you can catch tricks better from going down big gaps. For example, say I am at wallenberg. I would have a better chance catching and landing a tre flip down the big 4 than a guy who is riding a 7.5 deck. With that being said, a cool online feature would to be able to ride your friends board.
Damien says
yeah great ideas Eddy!!! 😀
ryan says
fuck yeah there should be day and night cycles xDxDxDxD
Damien says
yeah this would be the shit 😀
Clayton K. says
Great idea of day and night cycles!
Jagger G says
I think that there should be three story modes to choose from. Street, tranny or both. I think the batb and street league should be huge for the street. Vans pool party and and x games vert comps should be huge for tranny. For just free playing there should be super famous spots and parks to travel to like el toro, love park, Hollywood high, stoner, berrics, etc etc; and maybe in one mode you travel in a van to random spots and film for a video. Now for more of a free play mode make a bunch of pro skaters from the am skaters to the pros. Additional ideas->(First person, split screen free roam, live free play up to 6 players, more customizational characters) all that is a long shot, however it would be Nice.
Alfie says
I think they should put in some skates scooters and bikes for people who love the game but would like it more with other options like me and they should put in some really famous parks as well all around the world
jack says
no, just no, ITS CALLED SKATE FOR A REASON, urgh i’m sick of these comments
C.Follette says
Long boards for death races.
Bill says
It’s called Skate not Ride Scoot and skate they can’t just change it otherwise it would be a totally different game
niggertyronista says
its called skate for a reason u scooter fuck. your ideas dumb asf
Ethan says
Hi I’m Fred I think there should be scooters in there because that is what everyone else thinks that skate 4 has in it and yes all the other ideas
Matthew says
i think they should have different kinds of griptape like mob or grizzly also different brands like stussy or diamond supply co i also think you should be able to have different bearings like bones and they should actually have the bones brands i also think they should have more products for the more popular brands like spitfire and plan b and i also would like to see it have a night mode i know one dlc map it is free for skate 3 is night mode but it would be fun for it to be on all maps i would also love to have more pros like nyjah Huston he is awesome and it would be really cool if all the pros had there own skatepark with there names on it and customized how they like real life skateparks. it would also be really cool if they had real life skateparks but only the ones that have good ratings so you don’t end up having a bunch of crappy skateparks. and my last request is that they have skateshops you can go in zumiez is okay don’t really shop there but like local skate shops like index which is a local skate shop in the dallas area oh and almost forgot currency to buy different things i think you shouldn’t have to unlock them i think just like different brand and products should be like different prices and you earn money from like competitions and stuff. oh and your deck should snap and when it does you have to buy a new one but if your deck breaks and you don’t have enough money it should give you enough money to buy a cheap starter deck. oh and if you’ve played skate 3 u should know that you can sort of get in fights with people i think that there should be scooter but you can fight with them and shove them down in stuff. and i love the cars think EA should keep them in love setting up ramps jumping them, running in to them and stuff that’s fun but it would be awesome if they could smash into each other and you could drive in one to a skatepark or something
Harakudoshi says
Skate 4 Wishlist
3 words. Old. School. Tricks. Both freestyle and vert. Like caspers, anti caspers, rail stands, hand stands, grab manuals, one foot manuals, flat ground and grind fingerflips, proper names for grabs and inverts, and Bert slides. Casper- dark catch then pull right stick for a manual. Anti Casper- other way. Hand stand- double grab then brake. One foot manual- manual then press mongo push button. Bert slide- power slide then the rb/r1 catch button. A frontside grab bs 180 be called Indy as it should be, backflip 540 bs mute be called mctwist, tuck knee called del mar Indy, fs 180 mute be called slob air, mute tuck knee be called Japan, stale be called stalefish. Impossible, flick stick down up down. Hold down for double and triple. Vice versa for front foot impossible. Roast beef, hold right stick the opposite way of mute/stalefish grabs, then fs grab button. And the bs one foot be called madonna as it should be. Fingerflips manuals- manual, fs or bs grab, then flick stick like for a finger flip. Same for grinds. Rail stands- dark catch then hold stick left or right for either toe or heel side variations. Then can flip trick out. And re name front foot back foot as Ollie north and nollie south. And different style boards. 80s style vert boards with one big tail, only limitation is no nollies unless you flip the board around, long boards which you can’t do tricks on but can go faster, sliding gloves so you can do Bert slides at speed and can spin around and such. And maybe 360 spins and such, like manual, and roll the left stick around in circles. Keep spinning as long as you spin the stick. And freestyle boards that flip and spin faster but suck for stability at speed. 540 pop shove its, hold right stick at top and rotate it 270 degrees. Pogos, flick the board as an impossible as stated earlier, then dark catch button, and flip out, the ability to spin after inverts so you can spin to fakie and such, and tweak the controls like say, instead of just the dark catch button, you also have to hold a grab trigger, so for a backside invert, you be grab, then go at the ramp in such an angle as you would do a bs invert. To eggplant, you’d fs grab, then go for a bs invert. And if you don’t grab you do a ho ho plant, which is basically handstand on the coping. And be able to do fingerflips in inverts. And tweak it so you have to go at it at an angle to fs or bs invert. If you go straight up, you come straight back down into fakie, or into regular if you went in fakie. And crail slides, that’s easy, just tailslide or blunt, then grab like you would to crail. And maybe be able to walk the dog, thatd be like how I described 360 pivots, except without the manual, And every time you rotated the left stick a full 360 degrees so it’s pointed down you’d hit the button for your back foot, a for Xbox or x for play station. (if you’re riding regular) and maybe old school style competitions, like how many 360 pivots you can do, slalom, and hippy jump high jump. And have the city be a mix of San Francisco, Los Angeles (specifically Santa Monica, the birthplace of skating) and Honolulu. Honolulu has some sweet famous spots, such as off the walls and wallows. And have well hidden old skateparks from the 70s you can find, and old backyard pools where you have to hop a fence and then drain it, (other new features, and bailing out water from pools being a technique you learn early in the game) and a DAY AND NIGHT CYCLE!!! And cannonball can be similar to how a rocket air is done, except instead of going into a nose grab then double grab, you would go tail grab then double grab. And holding the right stick half way left or right and you’d do a coco slide, which is wheels on the side whilst you stand on the opposite rail of the board. Example, you hold it half to the right, and the board goes up onto the right side wheels, whilst you stand with your feet on the left side of the board, and your heels (or toes if you’re goofy foot) on the left side wheels. Like a rail stand, except you’re moving. And like how you can drag your tail after you go into manual, you can use a coco slide to go into a rail stand, just hold it half way, then hold it all the way to the side. And once you’re into a rail stand you don’t have to hold the right stick anymore, then you can flip into another rail stand or Casper or so on. And one wheel manuals and nose manuals could be holding the right stick halfway diagonally between a manual and coco slide, and you can one foot and spin on one wheel manuals. Truck stands can be go into dark catch, hold the stick down as if to manual like I described for a Casper, then backside grab so you’re skater will grab the nose of the board and automatically put their back foot in front of the truck, then let go of the grab for a no handed 50-50/truckstand. Or not let go and just hold it like that. Hold left stick down for prewind of spins. Tap the hand plant button to hop the handplant across gaps. Maybe an abandonded water park, with both open long water slides and full pipe ones, pools galore.
Damien says
Dude this is a big wishlist 😀
…AWESOME ideas!
Pablo says
I absolutely agree with you. I really like your idea of proposing that decks are able to break and I think all your requests are succesfull, the objetive of the game is superb.
Great job.
Thanks.
Nasser says
I’m the one who contacted the owner of the site and gave him the ideas in this post and I feel EA should consider them.
Damien says
your right bro!! 😀
Thanx for this sick ideas
Joshua James says
The ability to ACTUALLY push while in switch mode would be great too.
Tobi says
An improved Harcore-Mode should include that you have to press a button or so to catch a flip-trick, that would be awesome.
Person says
If the game is anything like this I’d die from all the epicness
Tyler says
Well what I would really want would it be super realistic with realistic graphics and not like I am watching cartoon network or something. A lot more contrast and detailwork with the shadows would be super cool. What I am thinking of is GTA V graphics. Especially if its on night mode. What I am picturing is a skate 2 kind of map but set in New York. And then you can go to famous places in New York like Madison Square Garden, Time Square, Empire State, Twin Towers, and statue of liberty. Lots of banks, ledges, rails, and stairs, No random ass wood ramps in the middle of the street. That wouldnt be there in real life… Make this game hard. Slower pace and make the story a little more meaningful. And the house btw is a super cool idea! And be able to drop in off the roof! And be able to invite famous skaters over for a skate sesh.
Tyler says
Oh and since PS4 is going to have social media based apps, you should have a cell phone on the character to hit up other people, post updates and whatnot (I wouldnt use it much it for that purpose but maybe some would), with a personal music app like an ipod where you can choose your own music, download your own music easily and play it through the game, maybe a pandora app and be able to connect to your internet?, and your listening to it all through headphones. And please not beats.
Tyson says
Honestly, Skate 3 was perfect, There are some much needed edits but other then that, no fricking house er whatever and no board snapping horrible idea, they had it great just more tricks and more skate parks with more accurate thumb sticks to make the game more difficult and fun, DAMIAN that was the most horrible idea Ive ever heard, I personaly have skate 3 and all other skate series but of all of them Skate 3 is my favorite.
Justin says
It would be pretty cool if you could buy your own bearings. and they could bust if you land to hard or after skating for a long time. It would also be awesome if it stormed. like raining and stuff so your board could get water logged. That would be sweet.
Nic A. says
Make it so that you can edit with your friends!!!!!!!
Nic A. says
Also, for the park creator, I think that you should have a favorites menu like in trials evolution where you can group select an object and save it. In this way, if you make something sick you can save it and always have it. Also, you should make the kinks better in the rails, in skate three if you make a down – flat – down rail, you bounce or fall sometimes because the rails aren’t together right. Also, you should make a system where you can weld rails together to make rails that go straight and then kink of to the right or left or a down rail that kicks you up. Hopefully these features could be considered and put into the game (if you make it which my friends and I really, really, really hope you do)
person says
I think focus mode would be neat to bring back, as long as some classic tricks. If you could be able to actually jump and grab onto ledges, etc. Especially to access a hidden rooftop set up or somethin sick like that. Bring legendary skaters in too like Alva
Clayton K. says
Don’t like the idea of focus! Let’s not turn skate back into tony hawk games, although the tony hawk games are legendary!
Kidman kush says
Needs to have co-op or I wont buy
collin says
i think that you should be able to have your character talk
Fabian G. says
I think it should let you change with which type you should ride.like a pro scooter, bmx , and skateboard.That would be awesom! Of course using the same options you can do with your skateboard you can do with your scooter and bmx!For example:choose your color, customize the parts, and even the brands!
Jsepi says
That sounds GAY AS FUCK!
S.K.A.T.E.
jack says
i agree
Jsepi says
Skate 3 was dope. My improvements would be: more difference when skating switch (bow-leg), trick editer (ex. Frontside flips and hardflips between the legs, tweak tricks. How awsome it would be with kickflips sucked up to your ass, optional via Trick editer. When you flip out of grinds and slides it could be more real, no one pops chest high shit out of a tail slide.
Clayton K. says
Great idea of trick editor to customize style and different ways of flipping different tricks. Everyone has different styles
Damien says
skate 3 is the best skate game till now 😀
Yeah dude a trick editor sounds incredible!
Clayton K. says
Like some of the other ideas of inside mag photos and mag covers along with the different comps. Love the skater of the year idea as well as the skater house and trophie room. But you should be able to put together a video part in the story mode. A legit part! You should be able to pick what YOU want to skate for coverage. Not challenges that say what tricks to do and what to do them on/off, etc. Also you should be able to make multiple parts so the game doesn’t technically have an end to it unless you want to “retire” your skater. I personally love the look of skate 2 and the play of skate 3. Don’t think there should necessarily be different difficulties cause I love the play of the previous skates but they should make the normal or CLASSIC skate mode and a realistic mode that lets your break boards, trucks, bearings, etc. Obviously with the new gen the physics in the “realistic” mode should be realistic on flip out tricks off of ledges and especially off of rails. If your doing a board shuv on a rail you shouldn’t pop off the rail like 5 feet. Physics on kinked rails definitely should be fixed on the new gen. Lastly, with riding “switch” you should be able to push while riding switch and the look of switch needs to be more realistic of the fact it’s not your normal stance.
Clayton K. says
Let me restate myself, you should be able to push switch without resetting yourself and making it look like your normal stance.
Damien says
dude yeah, awesome ideas!!! 😎
collin says
you should be able to have your character talk
Damien says
yeah, kind a implemented social media thing were users can interact with each other. Making skate crews for example.
Blake says
That’s the point of your character. He doesn’t talk.
Christian says
What if you had an objective to film for a sick video part
will hartman says
your clothes can rip, be able to ride cars to get to spots, have nyjah huston and jaws and trevor colden as a character. breaking boards, being able to break bones and you see it and you have to go to the hospital and you can wait it out or skip injury. for example, break your arm badly and your arm is crooked and you have to go to hospital and you get a cast for it and you can skate but your not as good or you can just rest your arm and watch skate videos or you can just skip your injury for a certain amount of money.
jack says
no, this isnt called realistic skate sim its called skate
will hartman says
or if you break your leg you have to wait it out or just skip injury for money
will hartman says
but just being able to break your board and having your house with all those features would just be so sick!!
Eddie says
They should have some sick boards like Hosoi,Alva,Penny,Peralta, those would be sick and maybe legends like the Z-boys, Christian Hosoi,Tony Hawk, maybe even cool events like Bowl-O-Rama,or Real events also there should be a zuimiez or active shops to go to.Well what if it had time changer like a career in the 70’s , 80’s, and 90’s also present and you can have it any time you start but they are separate careers though
Vasko Boyanov says
Imagina that you can switch to first person more :X and just imagine if u now have the ability to play skate 4 <3
Jeff says
Yess!! First person great idea! 😄
James says
Yeah I really think you should do two player and online like if you have friends on Xbox or ps4 then you skate with them and get in busses and trains!!!
ethan foley says
I know this sounds weird but it would be a cool idea.
In the game NBA 2k16 there is my park, and I think they should do something like that but like a skateboard competition instead of playing basketball to 21. Also another idea would be more realistic gameplay and graphics. They should also add more parks as DLC or something, like WoodWard. The storymode should start off like usual but i really want it to be a very realistic professional skateboarding experience.
Bill says
It should have your own brand like in skate 3 but instead you get to make your own board and other people can ride them when online but when make no need to use a skate graphics creator instead your can just make it offline instead
Steven says
Shoes should tear and rip as you progress. Yes they did in the previous games, but if you swapped shoes they would already be torn up before even skating in them. Also boards breaking and chipping would be cool. Trucks should break sometimes as well like Silvers usually do in real life.
gary says
Longboarding anyone
M. says
If the boards would brake, maybe if it’s just to high to land, that would be soooooooooo good! Could be nose/tail/middle by random or of course even better if you land on nose/tail or in the middle. If you land from very high on a rail or a curb, it should be brake in the middle of course! 🙂 Worn shoes would be nice and I wanna skate the Koston 1 from és, ’cause that was the best shoe ever! 🙂 Day and night modus definitely! Maybe with the crooks at night in the dark corners. Some f***ng cops or security guys here and there but with possibility to make them go away by some secret tricks, like ringing any alarms, break things, free animals or do other crazy stuff. There should be more stuff in the environment to interact with, skateshops where I have to buy my stuff an the camera shouldn’t move! It should stay steady behind the skater or at least there should be an option for that. Switchable ego-perpective would be cool also! Some good old boards would be fine, from the golden Steve Rocco era with those incredible graphics! And of course skateparks and spots from real life. From the present and the past (love park and emb!!!!).
And and and….. I want it all and want it NOW!!!!!!!!
But most IMPORTANT, keep it realistic!!!! No stupid THPS!
larspeder says
When you skate randomly around the world, you should be avle to meet other ps4/xbox friends thats online.
There should be a “instagram”-future where you can post videos, with a improved videoeditor.

Christopher says
I think the game should let you build your own parks and let A.I. skate it, which would give you more currency the more popular it is…
