    Looks like I'm buying a cap card.

    I was just getting back into things a bit... got about 3 minutes of footage saved up for a rainy day's editing...

    Its been a long strange trip haha. Reel going down, even if parks stay I wouldnt imagine it would be for much longer.. We still use the services but apparently we're not enough. You can be mad at ea but at the end of it all we had a good time, gained some skills.. They put skateboarding up to be recognized as a sport and the series' total lifespan is nothing short of amazing. Cap cards to keep rolling, hopefully another year for skate 3 online at the least.. If this is the case you could still share parks there just wont be an upload feature. You have to connect to ea servers to make rooms so yes, it will go down at some point. However skate 2 is still online as far as I know, may be a little while for online play to go. Try to keep that online activity up is all I can think of. Its sad to see this awesome series slowly dwindle down, ive never played a game as often as I do skate but heres to a good run. I got as much as I could from this, for sure.

    A month's notice. And they had to pick the one month out of this year when I have zero time to play.
    Man, at least they could like.. let somebody maintain a server space for the reel, just drop an update with the upload shit re-routed, and what the fuck am I even talking about.

    I dont know why EA wouldn't offer a new DLC that allows you to keep uploading clips. They could charge like 10 bucks and would make some decent coin. The cost of keeping servers up for uploading files only cant be to expensive. They could tone down the site, remove the abilility to watch the video on the site and you just name your clips and upload. Seems like a easy fix and they can make more $$ off us in return.

    What's even worse is that the reality is the opposite of that. The filmer pack is now completely useless, and the share pack is now completely useless (even though it was free for some of us).

    the filmer pack in skate 2 is still important if you plan on making cap card videos

    Ive been doing the cap card thing for a while now. Ea services were starting to slow. I own everything for skate 2 & 3 except time is money. I expect online to go down but as long as I can still access all my dlc Ive still got stuff to do. Ill skate just the cities if I have to but looking back ive shelled a couple hundred bucks for skate. DLC, Games on release day, new copies. It kinda sucks that the whole reel thing is what people are relying on. Weve come to learn EAs patterns dont act so surprised. No one seemed very upset when OG went down atleast not that I remember. Parks and graphics are so minimal for me. They arent taking away the editor so I dont see why you dont keep doing it and sharing with videos? /endblock

    Not everyone wants to buy a cap card, though

    Im just saying this is what you get for trusting a company you dont like. AND I dont see why not Goat.. You can get a standard quality capture card for the price of a new game there are even a few that are cheaper than that. Hd capture cards are like buying two and a half new games. Oh and I bought a capture card add that to my spent on skate list. It just seems silly that some seem reluctant like the reel and stuff would last long when the OG stuff went down it was just a matter of time. I wouldnt be surprised if s2 reel goes down at the same time either. A ton of ea games have reel features and it all goes down at some point. I still have clips stacked for a pga tour 10 montage.

    why is it silly to not want to spend more money on this game by buying a cap card/pvr?
    I think it's silly to spend more money at this point,especially considering how much this community has slowed down.
    I've had a few years of fun with it,good enough for me.

    and as far as the GC being so "minimal",ask guys like inside manager what losing that means for them.
    cap card won't help there.

    This exactly. That post seemed really insensitive and blatantly the thing I enjoy most from the game is just *playing* it, which won't go away from me. But it still kind of offended me anyway, because many of the friends I've made here are hurt by this server downing. Cap Cards may only be the price of "a game," but several of us can only afford to get maybe 1 or 2 games a year, and that's something that isn't worth a SD cap card that would be laughed off by any other community, especially considering most of us have other friends and other games that we play with said friends. There's a lot wrong with this server going down, and it impacts all of us.

    Theres no denying games arent cheap I usually trade in 10-20 games just to get new titles. Its just a reference I knew people related to. Not to discredit obvious talent in the gc just saying it doesnt affect me because I bought a cap card I still have other things to do. Whats a few more bucks was my mindset. You dont have to buy one immediately. This is the way its moving though and I still see potential to share building secrets, make better builders and keep the park editor thing going. Even more so now than when we relied on the reel. Now builders can capture those moments and break things down, if they choose to.

    Granted.
    Still, opportunity cost.
    Some (me included) would rather spend the money on more important/material things.

    Well if you wont set aside for a capture card I dont know what to tell ya. Its dead for ya. Nothing lasts forever but the capture card will give games a longer lifespan. Its bigger than skate if you want it to be. BUT If you guys wanted this thing to stay alive this is the route.
