I better not imagine anything. I may even hide all my friends who are better than me to feel some sense of virtual accomplishment
People are crazy, the times on races, the scores at trick runs.
I am SSX newbie, but I want to get really better.
I think I will even register at Merqury City. Many things I posted here are from there and there and community seems great and welcoming.

Do it! Very friendly and welcoming to people of all skill levels. There are some people on there who don't go for massive scores or zippity-fast race times. Some people just like to chill.

I'm pretty confident that they'll be able to fix the exploit either by launch or shortly after. In a game that is built around leader boards it is is really important that all the scores/times are valid. Does anybody know if these RiderNet scores will carry over to the final game?

I think this is where I give up. Oh well, Friday night, nothing to do... I think I can at least get into the 45s. But I don't think I'm beating him
I've grinded on the race 20 times, and I've gotten my time to something like 2:10.
Was wondering how these Sub 1:50 times were happening...
I managed to get 3.7 million on the Trick It course. Just another 27 million to go, unless someone else has gone further than that 30 million run.

Something around 40 mil+ is the current record. There's also an exploit with the rewind you can use to make it easier. The 40 mil run I saw didn't use it though. Just careful watching of your combo. Making sure you don't repeat tricks. Use the best tricks. Flip. Lots of tricks whenever possible.
Wow. Gonna have to try harder, as I was just constantly jumping and tricking relentlessly, and only got 3.7. Going to take awhile to get back into my SSX3 shape.
BTW: Anyone know if there'll be any Half Pipe sections in the full game? Love the ones in the older games.
Man, I really hope there are more well lit snowy mountains with blue skies. I checked the trailers and there seem to be a great variety of conditions (foggy, icy, dark caves, etc) which is great. Personally, I like to ski on the nice sunny days with plenty of powder, makes me happy .
.Just got around to playing the demo. Solid title; just like I remember ssx to be. I'll definitely be picking it up. Seems like EA is done with the SKATE series and revamping this. Good idea in my opinion.
I've only played with the tricks set to buttons, not the right stick. I assume the latter controls the same way as the skate series?

Do we know exactly what "153 drop points" means yet? I''ve understood it like this:
Correct?
- 153 drops-9 deadly descents (these are special cases) = 144 regular drop points
- One "Race It" and one "Trick It" drop point on each regular track --> 144/2 drop points = 74 tracks
- Total number of tracks: 74 regular ones + 9 deadly descents + whatever Mt. Fuji (X) has = 83 + X tracks
Correct?
I dont see why not.

I see Soultron on my list playing the full game. He needs to set it down and come throw us a bone.

He posted a bit in the demo thread which may as well be locked at this point. No need having two threads when the game is 4 days out.
You can sort of see what they mean in the demo already. The mountains (9 of them) have 3-4 peaks each, and on each peak there are 3-5 runs it seems. So 9*4*4=144 total drop points approximately.

I can't stop listening to Houdini. Which means I'm eventually going to get tired of it.
I dont mind youtubing it because I'll never hear it in the game. The only audio I'm leaving on are the sweet sounds of snow and board.
That's what I imagine DLC will be. That and characters. $5-$10 for a full fledged mountain is not unreasonable. By that I mean 12-15 distinct drops minimum.

I know EA are generally idiots etc, but why send out a bunch of copies to people they know are huge fans of the game and then tell them they can't speak about it? How ****ing stupid is that? These are exactly the people you want talking up your game 4 days prior to release. EA, you so stoopid.

Exclusive? 9.0 would be an absolute low.

Yeah, but I'm trying to figure out the number of separate tracks, not drop points (a race and a trick event on the same track does not make that track two tracks).

9.0 definitely.

Is there a game where those attachments aren't a good thing? I love mine but I've never played a game with them where I thought it would be better to remove them.
Yep, it's my biggest complaint. I'm snowboarding down a highway instead of down a mountain covered in snow.

i've been begging for over 5 years.
I know basing a score on a demo is very foolish, but if I were to be foolish and score the demo I would give it a 9. I'm docking a point due to the different (more speedy) feel of the controls and the fact that there are a few frame stutters.

You hate the triggers or the attachments that turn them into actual triggers? Personally I despise the dual shock, but they went and made it worse by making the triggers such that my fingers slip off easily. The trigger attachments were a god-send in that regard.
