People were also crying for the charger to be buffed. I've heard some people say that there was less lag during the testfire. I don't really remember since I only played 30 minutes total. Did anyone else find this to be true?

That japanese Squiffer is lagging hard... I shot him then got the notification of my kill 10 seconds later.
Btw I'm taking a small break, I'll be back.
It might be true to some extent but it might be due to the fact that each time zone worked for one region while not for the other. For exampke, the first testfire was around 7 PM EST and was really early for EU and Japan. The second one was at 5 AM EST, but was playable for Japan (not sure if EU was too early or not), so it would have been similar to playing regional brackets.

So I got done with my first day of this game. Really enjoyed it. At the third area in solo play and I did a bit of online as well. Played some turf war , doing OK initially then I felt like I was getting the hang of things and I started to win a few games back to back and topping the board. I stopped for a bit and when I came back it was non-stop murderers from then on. More than 10 games and nothing. I think the Japanese school kids must have come home lol.

"Alright, secured this half. I wonder how my team's doing?" *looks at map* "...I quit."

Best and worst of ranked matches happened to me consecutively.
Losing by knockout with a 16-4 ratio (and everyone on the losing team with a positive ratio as well). FFS.
Then in another match taking back kelp plat zone by myself exactly as the timer went to 1 and then keeping it until we won.

Alrighty, I'm out. GGs, Heng and Incite. Dunno where Red went.
See what I mean about Splat Bombs? They have a lot of applications, especially in hallways. Did you notice when I threw a bomb at you from the other side of the Bluefin Islands to try and aid my team? Probably not, but I did.
I actually don't care much for the scopes. Maybe on the E-Liter, but not on the Splat and Kelp Chargers.
I still think Chargers should get a small ten or twenty damage splash AoE at the end of their shot if they hit the ground. It's no fun whiffing a shot and them splatting you without taking even 1 point of damage.

I feel like there was less lag overall during the Testfire, but not by much when the servers are stable.

I was kicked out as well.
The splatter scope is so ink efficient compared to the 3k... almost night and day.

There was a GAF room?
I'll probably steer clear of it until I feel like I can play well again. I was past salty this morning/afternoon, almost to the point of raging. It probably didn't help that I didn't drink much water when I started. I didn't expect all of GAF to crash the room, either. =/
It's like going back to a Squiffer, right? It's crazy. I didn't realize how much I missed Splat Bombs when I went to try out the Splatscope. =D
Not having burst bombs as a crutch really sucks. At least the charge time is insanely fast.

Now go back to E-Liter for a bit, then go to Squiffer. It's like Sonic invaded whatever charges the tank and took over. =D
I hate this fucking map... The rotation can't come soon enough.
I don't think I've ever tried the Squiffer but if I did, I doubt I gave it enough time. I'm not a big fan of the sub though.
I once started a game where the opposing team only had two players. It was a massacre.

That, or take the HP of the DC'd player and evenly distribute it between the surviving teammates.
Those games are terrible because your team covers the ground so quickly, with the other team unable to retaliate in any meaningful way, that in the end you finish with fewer points than you normally would against a full strength team.
interestingly, I don't have this problem
my inkzookas are probably displayed wrongly, though
No your end was good. It might have been a Japanese seeker or something. I would explode in the hallway and then the ink trails pop up out of nowhere. I'm taking a break til the next rotation, GG guys.
I really lacked incentive to play seriously that match. It just felt wrong.

Now's the time to try out the Squiffers. =D
I'll give it a shot once I think I've gotten good with scope charger. Isn't there another Squiffer with inkzooka? What's the sub that comes with that one?
mines
that's the weapon I used in the first two weeks. The other Squiffer is probably better
Do you know what subs that one comes with?

Will you guys use the Bamboozler when it comes out? I know I will.
Classic Squiffer is Point Sensor and Bubbler. New Squiffer is Mines and Inkzooka.
had to look it up, Point Sensor. Actually, the New Squiffer (Mines/Inkzooka) might be better after all
definitely, it sounds like a Squiffer on steroids
I'll give it a shot. It sounds interesting, it's the one that shoots max range as a minimum right? I wonder how much damage it'll do if I just spam it.
Why would it be? The announcents on Twitter were pretty specific about when Tower Control would unlock.
30 dmg a shot according to the files. With dmg up it might be good as a squelcher subsitute given that chargers dont have a minimum HTK. IDK if chargers vary in their spam shot cooldowns though.
