I can't believe that they have the same exact floaty, awkward bails from THPSHD.

I was really considering to pre order it since THPS was one of my all time favorite games but damn..doesn't look so promising..
Ok so:
•The slam button is not a hold down button. You slam EVERY TIME YOU HIT TRIANGLE. There is no hold down to slam you ALWAYS slam when you hit the grind button. No matter where you are or what you are doing. It is irritating as shit.
•Lip tricks are way too hard to hit. I was messing with the tutorial and needed to do 3 lip tricks. It took about 15 attempts. Some times I would just fly out of the pool instead of doing the trick and the other times I would do a grind. Even while coming directly at the lip of the pool at a straight run.
•Wall riding is fucked. IF you come at a wall ride like you've always come at a wall ride, in Skate or in Tony Hawk, you just hit the wall and grind down. You don't go up. You go straight down. It's like you kiss the wall. However, if you go to the wall STRAIGHT FORWARD you go up. Because that's how physics work and going perpendicular to a wall is really going to help you build up a combo.
I have spent very little time with it so don't call this anything major, but the main thing I want to point out is that the slam button thing. Usually I go into a game playing it for the first time and don't discover something to hate several hours in. This happened as soon as I started playing. And I don't even mind stuff like the 'decelerate or accelerate' button. Right now I'm just dealing with how this game doesn't work right as a Tony Hawk game. Maybe I'll try another level and the wall ride and lip tricks thing will be a bug.
But the slam shit is very real. And very fucking awful.
Just watched that video, what's wrong with the camera angle? Why can't you really see in front? D:
What's the problem with the slam button? Is there some other reason you'd be hitting Triangle while mid-air?

Yeah, I have to question that as well...What's the problem with the slam button? Is there some other reason you'd be hitting Triangle while mid-air?
THPS
'Hey there's a rail there I'm going to hit triangle to magnetize to it and when i'm close enough i will'
THPS
'Hey there's a rail there I'm going to hi--- and my combo's gone'
It seems like most hate is mainly because robomodo's previous game was ass and people want to nitpick every little detail.
Yeah, I have to question that as well...
I don't doubt the physics are questionable but the entire purpose of hitting triangle is to grind, the slam function is just there to try and save your combo if you're gonna bail.
There was negative reaction to the mechanic before anyone had hands on, as though the grind mechanic in the original games wasn't already extremely forgiving
That wall ride stuff sounds abysmal though
EDIT: Wait wait wait.....so you hit the button to grind but it can accidentally register as a ground slam and drop you on the ground instead of a rail? If so holy shit
I knew it was the same button, and that it would slam you down to either a rail or the ground depending on what was near. But if that mechanic is literally interfering with the grind system that is some game ruining shitYes. The slam button and the grind button are the same button. If it doesn't detect a rail near enough to you, it will just slam you to the ground. There was talks before the game came out it was something you held down. That's not the case. You hit triangle and if you're not near enough to a rail you instantly slam to the ground and end your combo.

You clearly punched the air so you can't have been that annoyedI lost connection while uploading a clip to show what I'm talking about and got kicked from my private single player session. So that's fun.
Here I go for a grind and get a slam instead. Look how close I am to the ledge. So the magnetization is worse than previous entries while far more punishing because of the comba instantly ending where as I should have been able to grind, flip trick and manual(which is what I wanted to do)

I'm not defending this game, but holy shit I've never seen a game get more hate before release. It seems like most hate is mainly because robomodo's previous game was ass and people want to nitpick every little detail.
Sure, this game will probably be shit but nipicking just for the hell of it is unfair. Also, watching a video where it seems like the sole intent is making the game look like ass is obviously going to make the game look like ass... I could make a video of pure glitches in a fallout/elder scrolls game but that doesn't make those games horrible.

I just posted my review of THPS5. Hopefully this will help you on deciding whether or not to buy it.
