another note, i hope the game looks as good as the screens suggest. i dont know why but from skate 1 to skate 2 the visuals took a bit of a dip. im excited that they are bumping it up for 3 #skate

@zåɳzißårléɠёпȡ: Unfortunately I only own it on the Xbox 360. Sorry! I agree, the game never gets tiring at all. I still find new spots, which blows me away. There was something sleek and realistic looking with the graphics on Skate 1, and Skate 2 seemed to drop that a bit for more of a gritty / unpolished look.
Here's my part from the newest DP video, "I Hate DP": #skate

THANKS! #skate

The world just seemed a little to realistic, in the sense that over-the-top jumps were practicly impossible. It's why i refrained from buying the sequel, and i'll scout the terrain before buying this.
If anything has any positive info on the game world of part 3, feel free to enlighten me #skate

buy the game. lol
secondly, youtube is your ally.
NOW GO BUY SKATE NOW :D
if u wanna play online, my psn is aero7. #skate

Edit: Oh, and I probably will buy Skate 2 when it goes down in price once Skate 3 comes out.

Everybody gets tunnel vision on their own trick instead of ad hoc co-op seshing a spot. #skate

Kinda the same way the Skate 1 trailers and dailyvideos had camera angles you couldn't use ingame.
the same camera-kit that was later sold as DLC for Skate 2.
oh fuck. EMOTE DLC. /sigh. #skate

Is it just an ego thing? Do they do it just to show off their guns? Maybe tear the sleeves off their robes, throw some Copenhagen in their lip, and then go around breaking islands while drinking a PBR?
And where does all that lava that is always flowing around in Hades go? Ever been to Hawaii and seen the lava there? It's constantly piling up and forming huge messy piles of lava rock when it cools. Is that part of the punishment of Hades, having to clean up dried lava rock? #mytheon

Or maybe the devs just wanted to make it look cool. #startrekonline

even so their would be no oxygen for the explosion to spread out into - certainly no fiery debris emanating from the center.
It would probably look more like a huge flash, with little to no debris in the aftermath - also the ship that shot it would probably be severely damaged by all the high speed projectiles shot out from the explosion. #startrekonline

While we're on the topic, you wouldn't see those lasers in picture 3 either. #startrekonline

Of course, I am assuming the biolithic converter array was working properly for the above analysis, but that seems pretty obvious. #startrekonline

explode 100 objects in space and no two explosions will be the same.
explode 100 objects in different regions of the Galaxy and the results get even more distant.
see where I'm going with this? #startrekonline

A massive amount of energy is delivered to a mass. Without a medium of propagation (for instance, our atmosphere), a lot of the simple mechanics of an 'explosion' are very different than what one automatically assumes will happen. For instance, objects that are flung outward from the propagation point do not slow with distance from said point (reliant of gravitational forces and impact to change velocity). Thermal energy that had been transferred to the matter involved would only be lost through radiation and that would be displayed by light emission. The term "white hot" comes to mind, like with a light bulb filament. Except, consider energies orders of magnitude greater, metals reaching evaporation, etc. I would be hard pressed to not imagine a flash occurring, as diagorus predicted.
Anyway, why do you feel he needs to prove credentials for there to be any credibility in his explanation? The burden of proof is on you, in my opinion, if you feel like attacking his idea. Instead, you scoffed and wrote him off without considering his points. Critical thinking needs to be applied here imo. #startrekonline

we have very little experience with the sheer variables accouted for in vacuum space.
in fact, with every NASA launch something new about space is learned... including weather. #startrekonline

in the most recent of studies we've nearly confirmed that there is indeed hydrogen in far off regions of space! It's quite possible there's oxygen too.
do you live on a different planet than I? #startrekonline

I recognize there are unknowns, but I like to account for the knowns and get a good approximation rather than turn a blind eye. Yes, there is practically zero chance that two explosions will be identical, but that doesn't mean that was can't find common ground between all explosions. Then you go from there. diagorus applied some basic physics to the situation and made a stab at what might happen. You didn't evaluate it though, but dismissed it with the unknown. Pick apart his points, counter-argue, something.
Anyway, I'm guilty of being over-critical, but reading and replying on the internet tends to make me so. Sometimes I hate this medium. #startrekonline

someone claims it as FACT that a space explosion couldn't possibly look like that. EVER.
it's this very FACT that needs to be established. I neednt do anything further.
you championed the popular claim, also stating that it is a FACT that there is no O2 is space. ANYWHERE.
you must back this claim. I never declared any facts I need to back, only asked--rather snarkily--for credentials on the subject.
I know it is unlikely that we'll ever find atmospheric enirons capable of mimicking the very BOOM we see in cinema and games... but I'm smart enough not to throw the word FACT around. Especially when we're talking deep space FACTS. #startrekonline

Speaking of which, where are all the fat people in video games? I'm not talking the random boss encounter, but other more common characters. Besides Fat Princess, I can't think of another game that has fat characters in it. #borderlands

The hidden basement in new haven is obviously a Christmas Story reference.
Meat And Greet in Rust Commons is hosted by Chuck Durden. Its a fight club of sorts.
The Jaynistown Missions revolve around the Kobbs. (Mikey confirmed it was a Firefly reference on Twitter)

Spoilers ahead, very probably.
So click at your own risk

Also, in the thread a dev stated that somewhere in the game theres a "Turtles all the way down" line from someone (sorry...) and that it was a Terry Pratchett reference. which is god-tier Awesome.
10/27/09
No I remember now, Bruce McClane! An obvious Die Hard reference. And of course Mad Mel....

I lol'd when I saw your avatar BTW, "Oh yeah gurl!" #borderlands

Okay, so Pratchett was referencing Stephen Hawkings.
this doesnt change the fact that SCole stated they were referencing TP and not SH.

Then again, i could be wrong again.
Funnier things have happened. #borderlands

Headsets work fine for Uncharted 2 though. #borderlands
10/27/09
It's not a problem with my headset because it swaps who has the problem from time to time. We all have the official ps3 headset and can talk fine in Resident Evil 5 and LittleBigPlanet.
Hope it gets fixed soon, that is if they have any plans to fix it or if it's even fixable. #borderlands
