hopefully they dont keep it all about survival. its just not... ssx fashion. but then again we havnt seen everything the game has to offer yet so mabye we did get our wishes. i just hope they bring life back to the characters we know and love.

Seriously though, the SSX facebook page creator has been asking questions such as;
"When fans think SSX, they remember all the great characters and their nuances that make them unique. Who were your favorites and why?"
"When looking back, what aspects did you love most about the SSX franchise?"

The page is the official page from EA and is obviously using facebook as means of market research to aid in the creation of the game. If they're asking questions like this it's a fair statement to say that they aren't going to tamper with the original recipe.

What I really want to see is the same type of growth in the franchise as we saw from SSX to SSX Tricky, then again from SSX Tricky to SSX3. Each time the game grew but never deviated from what made SSX, SSX.

DD could theoretically be the next step in that growth. We're taclking mainly backcountry (first seen in SSX 3 but also briefly done in Tricky and SSX) while battling against the elements (again, first seen in SSX 3 on the Hapiness, Ruthless and The Throne tracks) over multiple mountains (which is both an extension of 3 whilst returning to the World Tour aspect of Tricky and SSX). I think the major problem people have is the darker tone and the focus on the Xtreme instead of the "pull insane tricks at 120kph while 100 feet up in the air" bit.

I really hope they don't tamper with the elements that make SSX so great, but I think you're assuming a little too much. (Again, I hope you're right, though.)

I think at this stage it'd be easier on the developer to ask these questions now and change what they've already made, rather than plough ahead knowing that they're making a game that nobody will like.

I just hated the "slowdown" aspect of pulling off tricks in On Tour and Blur. No need to slow it down; I can watch the match in slow motion after it's over to see it slowed down.
