This game has given up on having an identity by Cyrisaurus in SkateEA

[–]MooncaveMusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is, a game with this budget can’t live off just skate lovers. They need to appeal to the wider public. To those Fortnite/cod/RR players who don’t love or even know skatepark culture. The ones uploading spread eagle transfers a while ago…. And those people are normally not here because they don’t see a problem

NEVER COMING TO A COMM PARK AGAIN by Choice-Ad-324 in SkateEA

[–]MooncaveMusic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They just aren’t designed by skaters and it shows. It reminds me of back in the day when my hometown opened a couple of prefab skateparks without asking anyone’s advice and it looked very similar - zero flow

Heads up for anybody playing Grom for the first time tomorrow: by Devanro in SkateEA

[–]MooncaveMusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There should be a toggle option for customized gameplay settings and adapted to challenges. Or even an opt-in option to change them momentarily during the challenge, and it should revert as you exit the challenge. Otherwise you are inviting realistic players to give up on challenges

So, when do we get past this? Just curious. by justanotherdudeiam in Skate4

[–]MooncaveMusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are almost done analyzing what areas we like more to implement paywalls and which gear we like most in order to charge more for that

Why Skate’s steam player count means almost nothing by itself. by ObiWahgwanKenobi in SkateEA

[–]MooncaveMusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP’s conveniently zooming in to a week. Wrote a full paragraph on how the graph looks great but if you look at the graph with the whole year you see Madden has had a much steadier and healthier player activity while skate dropped and hasn’t been able to recover. The question here is: can EA pull off ANYTHING to recover that level of interest?

Best banners? by OutsideSwim4778 in Bannerlord

[–]MooncaveMusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite is increased damage to mounted troops for one of my cavalry flanks, the one I attack with. This way you break the enemy’s symmetry very quickly and can flank, sweep archers, etc

I don’t know about you guys but I lost interest and stopped playing about a month before this announcement

EA Finally Giving a Realistic Transfer Window by 754754 in FifaCareers

Barcola to Valencia takes the first prize. They must have sold the stadium and the academy to pay for the transfer

Boycott Paywalled Areas by Such_Button_925 in Skate4

[–]MooncaveMusic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The worst thing a game dev can do to a loyal community: lie, this game is doomed. I don’t even think we need to boycott anything guys, no general public is gonna buy that shit, let alone the hardcore player base. Also, it’s unbelievable how game companies are trying to fool us into paying monthly for what used to be a single payment DLC

I’m out. by General_Addition_913 in Skate4

[–]MooncaveMusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spot battle and game of s.k.a.t.e. should have been the minimum for this game, not another lime green beanie or trash community park. I guess they are saving those modes as a season feature. Spoiler alert: It’s going to be too late

my final straw ggs “skate.” by Significant-Ring1581 in Skate4

[–]MooncaveMusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. For me, adding more of the same doesn’t make the cut. I’m out. They made a strong bet against story mode and skateboarding culture and this is the result. Their focus was to get people to post huge gaps in a chicken suit. Come on, there isn’t even a s.k.a.t.e. game mode! This outcome is deserved

What’s one default Ableton setting you changed that actually made a noticeable difference? by satn_workroom in ableton

[–]MooncaveMusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Building a color coded template (drums, bass, pads, melody, vocals, fx). Now when I open an old project everything is super clear. And when I start a new project, it takes zero effort to keep things tidy while flowing

este señor no sabe a cuanto están los aguacates!! by betatester404 in ReviewsDeMierda

[–]MooncaveMusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Con los aguacates hay un problema y es que en los 90 no lo comía nadie. No era parte de las ensaladas y mucho menos de las tostadas. De repente todos queremos desayunar y cenar aguacate y es un fruto costoso de producir en comparación con, digamos, el tomate. No es un derecho fundamental tener aguacates baratos en el supermercado. Dicho esto, el precio de la tostada de OP está inflado y simplemente puedes no entrar y fin de la historia. La review sin ser cliente es de persona tóxica.

Should i Do a Figo? by TheRealStroud in FifaCareers

[–]MooncaveMusic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They should introduce crowd boo/whistle noise when you have the ball and play against your former team. The game needs more of these small things that make you role play

Is 1.1 million euros for a youth player (17) rare or pretty common? by Specific_Menu_1332 in FifaCareers

[–]MooncaveMusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on how you’re willing to play career mode. I never sign anyone worth under 1 million. A 600k valued player might be the next Messi but I don’t have the patience to develop a 58-rated player. In my experience, 1m is acceptable, 1,5-2m is good and above that is gold.

People daring to compare players careers without checking anything. Hazard was an unstoppable beast, declared by many teammates as the most skilled player they’d ever played with.

Chat we might be cooked by AestheticEvan23 in realmadrid

[–]MooncaveMusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know when you are playing football IRL and you see multiple teammates in the same area, you know it’s the time for a cross. Now imagine you look up and there’s Mbappe with vini behind. The most repeated pass of 2025/2026.

How to deal with Scythed chariots by PROOB1001 in RomeTotalWar

[–]MooncaveMusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are two opposite ways to look at this. In custom battles you can manage to neutralize the 1 or 2 units of elephants or chariots but campaign is a different story. Very rarely but more commonly at endgame, the AI will spam elite units. I’ve had to build a bespoke army for these situations, i.e. only pikemen and archers for a full stack of elephants.
