Every since I came here I always imagined non-playable-characters in SSX to where it wouldn't feel so lonely traveling from event to event. There was much talk about tourists in SSX and the grandstands were always sold out, yet we really never seen anyone outside of that. I don't know, maybe it's just too much like the hated THPS series..

I think it would rock to have more "life" on the mountains, birds, bears, yeti's, anything to make it feel more alive would rock.

Yeah, imagine snowboarding through a town and getting chased by Zoe's mutt Tiger! (it says she has one on her Vet card on SSX3). Pretty awesome, talking and stuff.

The mountain needs to be alive with more animals and people. Like in Downhill Domination.

Yeah, we definitely need more NPC. Realistically, they wouldn't spend millions of dollars on a mountain for ten people. Plus, you can take your aggression out on them without getting personal. :heh


One of the golden rules of SSX: NEVER EVER compare it to Downhill Domination. The EA executives HATE that.

Nothing would be cooler if during a freeride you knock everyone you run into on their asses, :lol

Cool idea, but they'd better stay out of my way! I don't wanna see Burnout / Need for Speed / Midnight Club situations with "traffic" going out of its way to bump you off track...

Chandler, I don't think there would be random people skiiing or boarding why you were in an event, I think it would be more for free riding.

Yep, that's what I figured. Just wanted to let you know how I feel about NPC's in any event other than freeride... :)

Here's a qoute of a post I posted a while ago in the prediction thread:

Quote:
19- Unknown characters: when you're freeriding or in the stations, it would be cooler if you had some riders riding as well, it would feel more realistic. and those characters would only be there in the courses or stations to make you feel better, but also to make you "race with them" until the event you want to go.


though i disagree with the part of racing with them, althought it was me who posted that, lol.

at some point, i think, a lot of people suggested the "more alive" mountain feel, having some NPC's scattered around would be really cool, especially during freeriding.

It would be kinda interestin if there was one or two npc's in a race..not the whole lineup, but one or two..and yeh, adding more people and animals to the environment would make it so much cooler!

Yeah, I'd prefer them more in freeriding and backcountry as far as being in your path. During a real event I think it would be awesome to see NPC's boarding, talking, etc over in the sidelines. Maybe even special character appearances that you can spot, like Eddie watching the race from behind a flagpole, Marisol booing Elise near the finish, you get the idea, heh.

Yeah, NPC's should be on the mountains and tracks if an official event isn't going down, otherwise the "officials" would clear the track of anyone not in the competition.

It would be cool if you could interact with NPCs, talk to them, challenge them, get on their good/bad side, see other boarders racing down a/the mountian with you. Not just outside but in the lodges too ... OMG IT'S TEH FREEROAM.

Remeber the outrun races in NFSU2? Would be cool to have somhting like that and own all the noobs on the mountian. THen once in awhile, meet up with one of the real characters. But thats kinda like the back-country races with the peak master in ssx3.

I just hope there's a Super Hard Mode for this game. the AI's been too easy for every game since... 2001, not counting F-Zero GX though. I beat all the opponents and now there's nobody left to do an Outrun race with anymore.
