this question is directed more towards the producers and developers of the game.

say you would come across a skinny ledge or hubba. can you manual the skinny ledges or would it automatically lock into a grind or slide since you are too close to the edge?

how sensitive is it to lock into grinds on nearby ledges?

i consider thps to have sensitive grind mechanics. you could grind a ledge or rail that's 2 feet next to you.

Yea i agree on the Project 8 thing, if you press triangle within a foot of something you would latch onto it and grind. I hope this doesnt occur in Skate because it looks so unrealistic. Hopefully you have to be quite accurate in SKATE when you plan on doing something

One thing i disliked in Amped 2 (Might've been 3) was the magnetic rail system. I'd try to get somewhere on a time trial, and when trying to jump a rail it'd just latch on and take me away. Totally annoying.

HOWEVER, i'm not saying Skate will be the same, as you can control the height of your ollie. So i'm cool with the automatic grinding, but in other games i hated it.

from what i have gathered the grinding isnt magnetic, you need to be perfectly positioned when you, ollie or flip into your grind i think its all dependant of how you aim the board in the air just like real skateboarding! it will be interesting to see how bluntslides will work! but either way this is going to be better than hitting the y button to lock on.

on one of the interviews, or previews it said you had to ollie or pop onto the rail and lean with your upper body to do the grind, there is no grind button.

Do you know that no one cares about how many posts you have? bumping 3 year old threads is just dumb, and a waste of a post
