Holy shit. This is the best track Nintendo created for a long time. It sounds so 90s eurodance like. I love it. Hopefully Nintendo will do more stuff like that....

This game is a drug!! I havent been hook into a game for so long. Cant wait for new maps and modes. Finally began to learn to rack points and to use various weapons 
sometimes it depends on the team (some teams I been to suck ..roller stop trying to just kill people!!).
So glad I bought it, newphew and niece got into the game too. At first she was all 'pffft, all you do is paint?' (She is 15) but then...yeah she played and was screaming about her team and the kills
I do hope the add local stuff to and not just online stuff.

Gotta say, had no real desire to mess with this game.. wasn't feeling the Nickelodeon style, not really into competitive shooters, didn't quite get it. Man am I glad to have picked it up after positive early impressions. So much fun. Feels great to control, full of personality and polish, the concept is brilliant and 3 minute matches are a perfect length.
Still not sure the package out of the gate is a $60 product but the promise of continued support makes me excited to have a reason to keep returning. I guess the fact that it's been pulling me away from The Witcher on a weekend I'd planned to do nothing but witch around means it's been worth it for me.

Thanks a bunch!
Is that regardless of the starting rarity?

Alright, hopping online now for some more multiplayer goodness. Going to try out the kelp chargescope.
I don't think it's viable in turf war but it may shine in ranked battles or splat zone. It's basically a weapon that goes for kills rather than covering ground.
Edit: Gg gaia, violet, and sys. Holy crap 30k to add a slot to your gear... I don't have 3 star gears with Max unlock to check how much reroll cost.
looks like it yea. I payed 30k for a 2nd secondary slot (on a 1 star gear).
Dunno how much reroll cost though. you can only reroll if you have all slots filled

Ok fuck scope chargers. The zoom is so annoying and messes with my aim. How can anyone play with that?
oh that was you, ha
we need to find a way to identify all the gaffers, I can't keep up all the names
btw I noticed that rollers can walk over a mine and get out of the blast radius before it goes off, and it annoys me

Isnt ranked battles the same as Turf War and Splat Zone?
Splat Zones is only in Ranked Battles and Ranked Battles has no Turf War.
I think ranked battle is the mode that counts your win and loss. If not, it's just splat zone. I'm not 100% sure on that since I didn't follow the news with splatoon until the testfire.

So ranked matches is an exlusive mode that plays differently?
Yea, the Blaster isn't very effective at covering ground, but it is a good weapon to stop people in their tracks when trying to go around the corner or come up some where.
Meant to say Ranked has no Turf War in that post, my bad.
Ranked Battles is where all of the new modes will be, including Splat Zones. It doesn't seem like Regular Battles will get those modes.

I've been trying it and I like it more than the normal charger. The added range and the sub weapon help you cover more ground and is much better for taking out enemies safely.

That's me for a while.
Good game Violet, Heng and Gaianight!
See you later

Absolutely. You only get points in Splat Zones if you win. Turf War is the casual mode. And Ranked Battles has it's own ranking system.

Ah ok, then i understand
Understood. I thought at first that ranked matches was the normal modes, only that you had a grade/rank to manage (making playing a bit more serious).

Is anyone else annoyed how the framerate ranges from 20 fps to 30fps while walking around in the hub world?
Also how do I share tags (drawings/text) with other people in the hub world?

Yes.
Yea, it is annoying. Though I'm only in the hub world when talking to Spyke lol.
I think you have to submit your post through the mailbox (next to Judd) to do that.
Yes.
You can increase the number of slots by paying 30K to Spyke once you've reached lvl20.
How about the number of stars in the shop?
Rank mode not unlocked yet? GAF stop slacking, want it unlocked by the time I finish work!
Hahaha

Is there any point to killing the enemy? Wouldnt you just rack up more points by letting the enemy cover your area, so that you can cover it again?

Just chilling for a while!
He's not wrong. That's how I play and if it's succesful we win the match. That said I don't really care about points. They're a good motivator to make people paint though.
Although you can easily get impressive scores on Saltspray Rig as a charger too. There's huge amount of area to cover. Even if you stay in the most obvious spot.
Put off til Aug? Why?
She is awesome so far and will get even better then ranked is unlocked.
It can be useful to get a push forward but it's not worth going out your way to kill someone.
If I get in a sticky firefight that I just jump or swim away and go paint somewhere else. Not worth the effort.

That moment when you score 500 points higher than everyone on your team.
For the team win, it's tactical with kills since it stop the enemy to paint. Extremely tactical during the last minute, I'd say.
Creating a game that awards for kills and objective is extremely difficult.
We are all conditioned to kill the enemy and if they awarded for kills in this game people will just say fuck the objective.
I rather it this way.
If your playstyle(defense) allows you to win then do it. Take the 300 win bonus for your trouble.
