![]() Once you master all five challenges in an amateur level, a corresponding pro level opens up, with its own set of five. There’s always a steeper challenge, of course. It wasn’t long until I was nailing perfect single-combo runs and feeling like a badass. From combo and high-score tests through to nailing specific tricks or collecting hard-to-reach items, the challenges are a great teaching tool in their own right. By the time it starts throwing steeper challenges at you, you should be ready for them.Įach of the 25 amateur levels has five challenges to beat (beyond getting to the end), and they’re a great mix, addressing every aspect of the gameplay. ![]() In fact, it gives you plenty of time to get a feel for the systems and get your eye in. Thankfully, OlliOlli 2 doesn’t demand that of you initially. ![]() You’ll also be required to use perfectly timed tricks off ramps to boost to the next section… or wind up broken and battered on the spikes below. Once you’re a chunk of the way through the career mode, you’ll come across grind sequences that aren’t possible to beat unless you nail the timing, or score goals that require switching grinds on the fly – which is only possible with a perfectly timed initial grind. Perfect ratings mean a faster-climbing multiplier for trick combos, but they also factor into the level design in a pretty major way. Grinds are a little looser to execute, only requiring holding in one of four directions (again, potentially with one or more shoulder buttons as modifiers), but the same timing applies: move and hold the analogue stick at the last second and you’ll get a perfect rating, this time accompanied by green sparks and a speed boost. Tap X (or X and left or right for a manual) just before you hit the ground and you’ll be awarded a ‘perfect’ landing. The innovation is that you need to catch the trick to land it, and the later you catch it, the better the rating you get – from sloppy to perfect. The former are triggered with a flick or swirl of the left analogue stick (potentially with a shoulder button held down if it’s particularly complex). Forget steering: this is a left-to-right stream of skating consciousness, where you’re flowing gracefully from one mini set piece to the next, attempting to commune with the clever level design and trick mechanics.įlip tricks and grinds are the main tools of your trade.
