The paintbrush in SR really is the literal worst. My trigger finger hurts.

 

[Tahnit]

OH MY GOD!

salmon run is sooooo fun!

 

[Maiden Voyage]

Second match this afternoon and it's another 3v4 match.

Nintendo needs to start handing out some severe bans on these disconnectors.

 

[Grexeno]

What time does the Splatfest end?

Splatfest is next weekend.

 

[RandomHopeInc]

How the fuck did you rank up in this shitty loadout

Its a poor craftsman who blame their tools

 

[CommandThrower]

I just played a game of Salmon Run where each wave was a nighttime wave.


Uh...neat!

 

[RecRoulette]

How the fuck did you rank up in this shitty loadout

Played with randoms who knew how to paint the ground...

There really wasn't that much different.

 

[Nekketsu Kõha]

There's a "points history" section that will show your past eShop purchases if your accounts are linked. It will 60 gold points for "$59.99 eShop purchase" or something similar.

On it now and there is nothing in the history. Is there an exception to codes vs digital purchase? Delay? Bug? Something I did wrong lol thanks for trying to help by the way.

 

[egruntz]

Its a poor craftsman who blame their tools

It's a poor developer who restricts the best game mode to a certain time of day, certain days of the week, and when the player is finally able to play it it's worth a shit loadout

I have a lot more respect for Octobrush users in ranked now because jesus how can you wail on that thing for 5 minutes

What time does the Splatfest end?

It hasn't started yet lol

 

[AlexFlame116]

Splatfest is next weekend.

It hasn't started yet lol

Oops not Splatfest but the Mayo vs Ketchup thing!

My mind is in two places.

That's what Splatfest is. Are you thinking of Salmon Run?

I never played Splatoon 1 so I guess? I thought we had to vote today or something.

I've been in the hospital all day so far and the net sucks.

 

[Cynosure]

You can vote now but the Splatfest is next weekend.

Ah okay! Thanks! Gives me more time then.

Once you make your choice, you live with it for the rest of your life.

Hope you get better!

 

[Ricky 7]

The hamster ball ultra is so rubbish, the first game didn't have any crap ultras.

 

[Cynosure]

im determined to use gyro. i'm convinced it's the definitive way to play
it's pretty hard getting the hang of it. i look crazy training for it

 

[derFeef]

How long is the vote open?

 

[egruntz]

Lmao promotion match in salmon run and the first wave is mother ship. Lmao impossible. How do they not have an algorithm to prevent this frustrating as shit loadout

 

[Anteo]

How long is the vote open?

Until the end of the splatfest next week.

Second match this afternoon and it's another 3v4 match.

Nintendo needs to start handing out some severe bans on these disconnectors.

The should start by making their netcode decent. I can't understand why Splatoon (1 and 2) is the ONLY game on which I get regular network errors...

 

[Koren]

Lmao promotion match in salmon run and the first wave is mother ship. Lmao impossible.

I don't think the mothership is close to being the most difficult wave. Plently of eggs and no real danger. You just have to be careful and ready to defend the basket.

 

[Lucent]

When/how do you get the stuff you earned during salmon run?

 

[Gsnap]

I don't think I've ever seen this mothership wave people are talking about. What happens?

 

[Jaded Alyx]

When/how do you get the stuff you earned during salmon run?

Go to the counter outside the shop

 

[molnizzle]

I would guess maybe you're not using the same account, or they aren't linked? Maybe there's a delay, I'm not sure.

 

[Koren]

When/how do you get the stuff you earned during salmon run?

Anytime you want at the counter on the left on the Salmon Run building entrance.

 

[egruntz]

You can't defend the basket with ink brush and roller.

 

[Biske]

Ya our disconnect here seems to be that you guys want to take the game much more seriously than I do. I'm not in this for esports or MLG; no ranked modes. Just some fun with turf war and Salmon Run. See a sniper? Find a better lobby.

Ranked is fun, not because its some competitive measuring contest, but the modes are more fun.


Rainmaker is the best

Flying things drops cool boxes that contains either enemies or golden eggs... you can reach the quota easily, but once or twice, a "mothership" dock to your basket and steal the golden eggs. If you're not careful, it's deadly

 

[OryoN]

Switch is such an awesome console. Just had about an hour worth of Splatoon 2 online play, out on the road (Burger King lot). Worked really well using my phone(4g network) as a hotspot. I got an estimate of 111MB of data used. Not bad for limited sessions.

Todays Salmon run weapons suck. Holy.

Not accurate. Destroy the boxes before they hit the ground and it's 100% a golden egg. If it hits the ground it's 100% an enemy.

 

[psychowave]

I'm torn between the Dualie Squelchies and the regular Squelcher. Hmmm.

 

[jurec84]

Todays Salmon run weapons suck. Holy.

Yep, the worst.

 

[Maiden Voyage]

Another 3v4.....

 

[Succinct Verbosity]

I hadn't a chance to play all this week, but I just went from a C- to a B- with only two losses. Pretty chuffed, but the skill level at B is a lot higher.

Outside of Overwatch I haven't had this much fun with an online shooter in a long time, and it certainly is the best one available on consoles (a view overwatch pc and console as different things).

 

[RecRoulette]

Profeshional 200 Pay Grade matches are fun, even in losses we're bringing in 100 points.

 

[ZugZug123]

FYI: scrubs for splatshirt skills are just 2k.

Woah, yeah. That's never come up for me. I love how much effort they've put into salmon run. The bosses are well made and the secret rounds are great.

 

[RecRoulette]

If you push - (minus) in Grizzco you can bring up the manual to learn about all of the special waves (that aren't covered in the tutorial).

Was pretty hilarious when I was first playing the mode seeing people have NO idea what to do against Grillers lol

Edit: Spent my whole superbonus on shoes from Murch, goddamn at the 30k price tag for the Yeezys Black Norimakis

 

[Koren]

You can't defend the basket with ink brush and roller.

Pretty sure that it works with the roller. Not as easily as a Splatling, though.

Granted, that's a team game, and if you're with three people that don't have an idea about what to do... But I found that you quickly reach matches with at least 1 or 2 competent players.

 

[Newline]

OH MY GOD!

salmon run is sooooo fun!

Just played my first round just now, it's so damn good.

 

[Sola Scriptura]

What is the monthly reward in Salmon Run? It doesn't seem to even reference one for me in my game.

 

[Maiden Voyage]

Just played my first round just now, it's so damn good.

Agreed. I wish you could level gear.

 

[twothunder]

i lost as much points in salmon run as i won. no progress.
that was it for now
