i like the night skating idea
but i want more real life spots, ( yeah emb, hubba, rincon, and spot like real spots are fun but we need more.)
- less huge gaps (they were so annoying for challenges)
- the CAS we were getting for S2( like tigar woods)
- the styles sound nice to have again
- CAS updates( few new items every other month or every month)
there is more but i haven't played either skates in a while

What I would like to see from skate 3

More Realism
- Tone down ollie heights from the world record height they are at now to a more slightly above average, maybe 36 inches (3 feet).
- Accordingly flip tricks will need to be adjusted to the new lower heights
- The city will also need to be scaled to realistic sizes to accommodate the change
- Faster flipping so it would be possible to pull off triple kickflips and heelflips on flatground
- More resistance on grinds, especially rails parallel to the ground. This will not allow you to slide down 30 feet of rail from just simply pushing. Obviously rails going down a slope, stairs,etc. will not do this.

Graphical Additions
- Day/Night cycles, with streetlights during the night. Progressive lighting with occasional overcast during the day.
- Better more real looking lighting. skate 2 was a definite improvement over skate 1's overly done bloom lighting, but still had this unnatural look.
- Touching up on some animations; bending knees, foot movement, and smoothing out transitional animations.
- Bring back styles; loose, normal, aggressive
- A little more wobble to manuals and long grinds

A Whole New City
- Realistic city, both in objects that would be found in a city and scale to adjust to the realism of the new ollie heights and trick heights.
- Venice Beach inspired area, maybe a boardwalk like area along a beach.
- The City could have 2 schools instead of just one, maybe even carry this idea over into other aspects. Multiple community centers for example.
- Requested spots from the community placed properly in the city
- Tone down, if not completely cut the giant spots, like huge rails and gigantic gaps. To once again accommodate the realistic approach of the game.

Different type of Career
- Less about a "story", more about a career style of skateboarding
- Starting out trying to get sponsored by different companies; shoes, boards, wheels, trucks, a skate team
- have these different companies each have you do photo sets and filming for them.
- Season style competitions, similar to the Dew Tour, name it whatever the hell they want.
- More realistic competitions, street, vert, best tricks, etc.
- Less goofy challenges

Better Character options and customization
- More face and body customizing
- More headgear, and different types of headgear. Beanies come to mind.
- More clothing options, pants and shirts.
- Color changing options to those clothing and head gear
- New board companies (if possible), and wider selection from each company
- More wheels and A LOT more wheel colors.
- More truck colors too
- Grip tape color options, options for cutaways on the griptape as well.
- More options for the blank custom graphics clothing; More hat options, beanies, long tees and t-shirts
- More slots for the custom graphics, for both clothing and boards.

Skate.Reel
- More upload time for skate reel, maybe up to 3 minutes worth. With an option to pay for 5 additional minutes through marketplace or the sony store. So up to 8 minutes of space if you choose to pay for that additional 5 minutes.
- Filmer pack should be in the game from the start, not a pay for add on.
- Bigger screen fitting when watching uploaded videos. The current one is kind of small.
- More category filtering on current categories. Top Rated for example can have a filter for top rated all time, top rated for the month, top rated for the week, and one for a particular day. Same can be applied for most viewed. That way you can browse more videos instead of seeing the same ones.
- As for saving replays; up the allowed space amounts and fix the problem where you adjust the start and end but it still saves the entire minute or whatever amount it saves. It should save the part between the start and end bars.

Online
- Skate teams with a dedicated spot under the online menu
- Set captains and co-captains of teams
- Can set the team logo/icon under the options
- Ability to spotlight a particular video(s) from a team member(s) for the teams "homepage".
- Team affiliation/name will show up somewhere on your skate.reel or when you play in game modes against others. With the teams logo/icon as well
- More game modes, and improvement to current crop of game modes.
- s.k.a.t.e. mode improvements, each person gets 7 or 8 attempts to start and put letters on the opposing player, and then it just cycles through the players with each getting 7 or 8 attempts. Then it can lessen the 2nd go around to maybe 4 or 5, and decrease as need be if it cycles around the players again. This way the first player is not going to get an infinite number of attempts to put letters on people. They get 8 to start, unless of course they fall, then it would naturally go to the next player like the normal game.

what SeaNNy T said .

oh i forgot i had another idea

-snap object feature

i want to have the ability to drag a manual pad up to another manual pad, and click a button to have them 'snap' together. This would allow for the player to double the length of the pad, so longer manuals and grinds can be done. This would be cool for picnic tables too.

3rd page bro! theyre just the main things i wanna see in s3 in general.

Well we are def getting a skate 3!

Graphics
They are fine! Xbox has limits you know they can only go so far with detail..

Vert
A small bail with the ability to slide on knees, would be awesome.

Grabs;
no foot airs, the ability to tweak your feet while holding board for a clean landing..
and if you do a small no foot air the character won't pull it up as high,
versus if you hold it longer the higher he'll hold it up.

Air walks, where's the walk man? If you hold it for a few seconds it should look a bit different..
if you do one real quick it would be an animation like the one currently on skate 2
but if you hold it for a few seconds have them actually move their feet!

and finally spins, Spinning with some advanced grabs is er.. difficult?
Like at some points you just completely stop mid-air, or bail or spin slow and then slam etc.

Street
Oh my lords of Blackbox please keep the sound and feel I saw in the teaser trailer..
the sidewalk sounds and reverts sounded so epic.

Street courses, Like skate 1.. I miss the X-Games..
The epic jump with a street course was great for freeskate..
that brings me to the next topic.

Online
Online freeskate, such a let-down on skate 2..
I enjoyed the freeskate activities sure..
but once I completed them I was baffled by my in-ability to free-skate!
New players joining constantly that just got the game to do the freeskate activities was annoying..
I don't even freeskate online anymore! There needs to be some more options versus the freeskate
activity goers as everytime I join a session and start to freeskate if someone does an activity and I'm freeskating
whenever they are done it resets me and I lose my session marker.. it's a hassle.

Other stuff
Dark slides.. epic much?
Just because tony hawk has this trick doesn't make it a tony hawk approach good god..
I hate to relate rodney mullen to tony hawk even if he was in his franchise.. they are
completely different people!

I liked what I saw in the teaser trailer for street.. some more of that.
Balance out vert and street.. I hate seeing more of one than another!

Lastly Take your effing time blackbox.. It looks epic but just give us video hints and eventually a demo..
hold the game as long as you like I want a full experience like you keep claiming and not a game that needs instant bug updates etc.

-To be able to break a board
-To have detailed scratching on boards, so your board gets more and scratched overtime
-To have more customisable facial features
or...
-To have create a face like THPS4
-To have variable animations (great already, but more would be awesome for video purposes)
-To have Personalised Soundtrack from HD (without waiting for patch PS3)
-To have better walking / running animation
-To have a Create a Park (like Dyrdek FF)
-More movable objects
-Better GC
-Stickers for anywhere on Board (even if GC does or doesn't allow FULL graphics)
-Own a spot (TEAMS Logo is Graffed on the Spot until owned by some other team)
-Being able to customise the controls, I am goofy and use X to push as it's more comfortable, but don't want to skate Mongo!!!"$!£$%!"^"^) and using square sucks.
-Full colour options on all clothes.
-Full Hat options on all hats (tilt, back to front)
-Slightly less spinning in the air
-PERMANENT WATERMARK OFF PALEEZ
-Killzone 2 - Clan system and leaderboard
-Special Competitions
-CREATE A TRICK editor (not sure how it would work, but make it subtle and realistic)
-Skate Shops for the best of the best , like a hang out... eg... OATS would be given the rights to Own a shop in the game and they could hang there and their videos would be playing on a screen in the shop, and you could have access to their clothing or boards... could be fun... plus adds (LEGEND) status to the crews that deserve it...
-MUCH MORE DLC
-Lots of glitches so we can reach obscure areas
-EASTER EGGS
-Hidden areas
-option to slap board on the ground in appreciation
-use the buttons to have subtle variations in animation, mid trick, like catch a board. flip a board. at a high risk of bail

Skate 3 will be awesome... gonna pre-order

- More realism
- Less arcade stuff (HoM, dumb tricks etc.)

Don't fall into the same trap as THPS did.

i really hope this could be looked at..

this one detail...

its so minimal..
but it makes all the difference...

* breakable boards (option to respawn a new one, for ingame money)
* ollie hippiejumps PLEASE. do it for Gonz http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZX_q5Jp9DHg

thank you

I agree with everything you said except this one bit. I actually want the opposite. I want it to be impossible to do trips and quad flips (especially on flatland). I would rather have them slow the rotations down so kickflips don't look so lame when you do them over high objects and down big sets of stairs.

-Lots of glitches so we can reach obscure areas

This might be the most hilarious request ever. I have never seen anyone request that a game be buggy. Too funny.

GIMMIE MY LOOSE STYLE!!!

hmm... maybe this has been mentioned but CUSTOM TATTOOS.
