scottcr Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 I was quietly looking forward to this as 1080 is one of my absolute favourite games - but sounds like they've missed the mark a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minion Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 I can ollie higher than the player character and I get a maximum of two weeks a year on the snow. They seemed to have missed the fun element of the game which is a real shame. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flub Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 I'm passing the time finding nice starting spots and then just boarding as far as I can. Feels good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Count Buffalos Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 What level are you? Some of the hard challenges are just that, sheer faces for the snowboards or super precise wingsuit courses at crazy speeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the stuff they show later on looks rather fun, especially if you'd play it with friends. It's just that the visuals are so bland and uninteresting.

Count Buffalos Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 The visuals aren't the most exciting but it's all about the the subtleties of the slopes and picking the best lines. I that's really well conveyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flub Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 I think the visuals are lovely. Really nice lighting. There's also some really technical and challenging events in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyhwuhx Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Yeah, it's not bad if you can get into the easy going snow vacation vibe. But it's not compatible with jacked up SSX-adrenaline junkies wanting to input the Konami code in the split second they're airborne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Count Buffalos Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 No, it certainly isn't that and nor does it try to be. It's mines the same seam as 1080 really. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flub Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 The trick system is really annoying me. It's just so frustrating at times. I think when you jump if you're still pushing on the left stick you can't trick at all. You just won't turn. Which makes the entire system really bad. It feels so unnatural letting go of the left stick before you jump. Also it keeps flagging events as new that I've done before. Making finding events to progress very hit an miss. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karzee Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 I like skiing in real life so took a punt on this and I have to say that i'm really enjoying it. It reminds me more of Skate than SSX in that the tricks are based on real physics and they take practice to pull off well. There are loads of events to find and take part in, and the challenge is quite high to get golds. Oh and i LOVE the GoPro view! First person skiing all the way down a mountain is just soo fast. Here's short time trial race I was doing: But aside from them you just have this vast mountain range to just mess about in and, like Skate, find lines/routes. The speed you can restart or plonk yourself back anywhere along your route, as well as watch replays from there, is fantasticly seamless. In the replays you can slow down time, move the camera and change views at any time, as well as rewind so you can create you're own little movies of lines: I've tried a bit of GoPro view wing-suit flying as well. This is an easy course, the hard ones like the one Flub posted earlier are going to take time me to master (the other flyer is my ghost showing my previous best time). 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boozy The Clown Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2016-12-09-steep-review Recommended/10 Had this in my hands today but @ £45 it seemed too risky, based largely on me knowing next to nothing about it and this forum's jaded attitude towards it. Having read the EG and watched that IGN review I'm probably going to end up withit over the weekend. It looks like a great environment with unsurpassed freedom and unlimited gameplay possibilities in the same vein as Skate. The lack of hype around it is either a result of the too many games situation/mental season or down to it not being marketed well by the publisher. That appears to be an unfortunate situation as it seems to be doing a lot right. Maybe games just don't stand a chance these days unless they are hyped on youtube by shills then forgotten a week after release, but that's another conversation. So Steep looks like a game that's Steep but deep. In the same manner that Skate's control system was insanely complex but just as satisfying to master. I'm talking myself into it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
