Have any of you played Steep? Is it any good? They announced a Winter Olympics event in the game

it's pretty sick. unrealistic of course (but you can do whatever you want and find realistic lines) and the controls arent amazing but theyre pretty good. and it's a huge mountain range that you can explore. i like it a lot for relaxing and finding sick lines all over the place. the wingsuiting is fun too

yeah you can do most tricks, and the grab system is good-- similar to Skate where each trigger is a hand and the right stick is the location. sick blunts and nose grabs and others

my biggest complaint is that it has that SSX thing going on where he kinda spins too fast, like youll do a 9 when you meant to do a 7 a lot etc

it has its downsides but the crazy amount of terrain you can explore is just too sick...i get lost all the time. you can hike and wingsuit and paraglide and get rides from a heli (first you have to use tokens, but then you unlock it for unlimited use)

I really wish they had the option to do a realistic mode like skate 3. That would be super fun every once in a while. Although, you can do it yourself in a way by just skiing realistic lines.

I bet the next version of Steep will be pretty good. Just gotta wait a few years I'm guessing

Steep is awesome. The Winter Olympics expansion looks sick! Check out the new parks

yeah a lot of times i try to find smaller more realistic ridgelines and ski lines with decent turns and realistic drops using first person mode. pretty fun

I play steep a lot and I try to do some realistic stuff, but I end up throwing quad corks off insane cliffs(which is still a lot of fun)

I think it adds a cool side to the game because it’s so hard to do a legit cork 3 for example. It’s more satisfying landing a smaller rotation just because it’s so easy to send it into a cork 7 or dub.

But it I agree it would be cool to add a realistic mode where the physics are tweaked differently to allow slower spins and more realistic skiing

The best part of steep is going to the Matterhorn, launching off the top a few hundred feet, eating shit on rock, but you can still get up just fine
