Did Nintendo explain why the maps rotate oddly? Why aren't all 5 just in rotation?

Maybe they'll add them once they have a better idea of how active the community is. It seems they want to make sure matches start as quickly as possible. I think that's why your locked into lobbies as well
 
I just had a Japanese vs. American/European match. It was intense, and we were extremely under leveled, but we inked it out in the end!
 
So this is a thing....

It's been happening too often to me.

Are they just turning off their Wii U? Or is the servers buggy? MCC flash backs all over again..

Either they disconnected or they turn off the game as you said.
You don't get points for quitting so I don't expect it to happen intentionally that often.

So how often do the clothing items restock?
Daily.

It looks as if there are is room for a third in rotation maybe when more levels come out.

I don't mind it, kind of a unique system. I just wish it alternated, so if I stayed in a room I could guarantee try one. I just got Salt Spray Rig 5 times in a row and didn't get to try the Mall level. Maybe it has something to do with the way the matchmaking works.

So far, really stable matches. I'm at level 7, only had one communication error in a bunch of matches.

I know I'll want those new maps sooner rather than later though. I hope 2-3 more maps show up within the next two weeks.
 
Woke up a little too early - so awesome to see a lot of you guys already having a riot with the game.

I'll be joining the fun in about two hours. I can't wait.
 
If Nintendo doesnt approach Sega and get some Jet Set Radio gear and Hideki Naganuma tunes in for dlc stages, they are really blind.

Splatoon X Jet Set Radio dlc makes too much sense NOT to come true.
 
Don't aim down. That's basically it. Find the largest area that doesn't have your paint and paint it.

What do you need help with exactly?
I don't know how to be specific, but it is the only weapon I feel I am not helping the team that much. My ink coverage feels mediocre when playing the charger.
 
GGs, Red.

If you're still playing, I can show you how I play. I just got DC'd (noooo), so I'm free. I just unlocked the base Charger, so this'll work.
 
Man, online has been a smooth ride so far. Can't believe I'm splatting all those japanese players all the way from Brazil without a hitch :3

Sorry, I am going to sleep now, already turned off the Wii U (it is almost 4 am here). If you are online later, I'd love to have the lesson on how to play the charger :)

(I will add you later, too... or you can add me now, nnid is reilas)
 
One guy on my team literally standing in one spot the entire match trying to snipe people. I don't think he understands what the point of the game is. To top it off he didn't even manage to kill any one >.>

We still won but, good thing there is no voice chat lol
 
Wow just had a match with Me as a Splattershot Jr with three rollers versus a team with no rollers. We somehow won that in the end. I was playing offense as hard as possible to keep them off my rollers.
 
I think a big part of enjoying it comes from finding the right weapon. I was lost and frustrated with the Splattershot Jr. But the .52 Gal is perfect. I've seen a few other people using another one I want to try, so I guess I'll have to grind my way up to it.

I'm still playing, just taking 5.

You guys want to try and get a GAF lobby going?

I'll be on for another hour. Busy day tomorrow unfortunately
 
The mall is so much fun. You really need to take that high point to hold the game.

Yeah. The whole game hinges on that point. Once you lose it, it's hard to comeback. I prefer Saltspray rig, with the way it's sort of unsymmetrical. There's the big bit sticking out that people fight to take, but you have to leave one guy back to defend. It's fun.
 
Defending the low point on Saltspray Rig is really easy if you use the sprinkler sub weapon. the crates are exactly in the middle of the area, so if you put the sprinkler on there it covers the entire area while you go off doing something else, it also deters the enemy from going down there.
 
This game is too fun. I've still only been able to play a few matches last night and tonight, but I'm loving it. The match length feels perfect for me. Just short enough to make you want to play another, and another, and another...
 
So far placing first on my team usually (and on the winning team). I assume this thing that says "Smokin'" is some kinda win streak meter?

Yes. And if you talk to the Cat in the lobby while you have a big win streak going, it seems like he rewards you with money. So go when you think your streak is getting big enough.
 
I'll have to let the sniper go......for now. I'm not helping with it.

I do like at the beginning making long paint roads to swim up and go as deep in as possible though.
