So is the general consensus that the Aerospray is OP is it just that most people don't know how to counter it yet?

Part of me wonders if it's not the weapon itself that's the problem but the super. The Curling Bomb launcher just seems so good compared to other supers.

The points you need to get the Curling Bomb launcher needs to be raised, but other than that it's fine.

I agree, i have some gear with multiple fast special charges so it loads insanely fast when i use the aerospray.

Had multiple games with slightly over 2500 points already.

Strange some other weps got nerfed a few days ago special wise but the aerospray kept the same needed amount.
 
Pretty much every weapon people have ever thought ot be OP on Turf War is simply related to the fact that some weapons have a lower skill floor for you to start doing some damage with it. Alternatives that require more skill and have bigger potential exist.
 
the art of this game convinced me to get a Switch this weekend. I'm really digging The Dreamcasty vibes of NEW nintendo IPs (This and ARMS). Splatoon feels like a cross between Mario Sunshine and Jet Set Radio and i love it.

I not an online shooter kind of gamer, they usually make me kind of nervous.. I don't want people to hassle me for not being very good hah.But really enjoying this so far.. i think the lack of (easy) voice chat and things works for me, though i know it is making other people angry.

Is there a soundtrack release at all? It's so fun (more Jet Set vibes) I had a look around but couldn't find much
 
I think I need a long break. Played almost every free minute since release and loved it, but it isn't fun anymore... Turf is boring after a while and the ranked games are just too damn frustrating. I'm not the best player, I don't want to say I am the best and everyone else sucks, but the amount of times where I get Team Mates which do absolutely nothing for the objective is too damn high. In C Rank it wasn't a problem, because I could just kill everyone and carry the game alone. In B it doesn't work anymore and I would need people who at least try to do something useful. I'm just not good enough to do this alone. 2 days with more frustration than anything else make me question if I should continue playing it. Games should be fun.
 
Finally done with the single-player missions. Glad they expanded on it. Got into turf war, but damn I can't seem to aim for shit with the motion controls. Going back to right stick aiming.
 
I find the only real OP weapon right now is probably the tri slosher. I'm not sure about the octobrush, it's one of my favorites, but it's also not very good at Splat Zones, so. Still, the range of the octobrush might be a little much.

Aerospray I've learned to counter, but I still say the curling bomb launcher needs to take longer to get. It's basically constant spam when the enemy team has 2 or 3 users in Turf Wars.
 
I need to try a new weapon and see if it sticks with me. I've been using the dualies and it's cool! But I don't think it's doing much against the opponents that I'm facing which are usually 10 to 15 levels higher than me.
 
I keep getting stuck with teams who don't pay the fuck attention.

This is my third time in a row when I lost when we had a huge lead in the first place

And I still get the squishy problem. Even with ink armor equipped, it seems like it's only good for two hits and then splat.

Maybe it's time for you to find a group of people to play with.

Ive been trying to switch up weapons more and find something different to use. So far ive been having most success with tri-slosher.

I would love to get better with the .52 or .96 gal. Im just not sure of a good play style for it yet. Maybe hiding in the ink ambush style? I dunno.
 
Kurt Eichenwald reference. My god

This Salmon Runs shifts weapons are way better compared to the last one atleast.

Finally will be able to claim my profreshenal rank back soon.
 
The mothership wave seems broken. What do you even do?

Shoot the messenger guys who bring those boxes in they drop eggs and when the mothership is comin for the egg basket ink it like crazy.

Otherwise the mothership will suck eggs away.
So for eggs hit those boxes/flying guys before the box lands/hits the ground.

Ohhh, we were hitting the boxed when they were on the ground. Thanks!
 
Pretty apt though...

"Stuffed" is something I'd give to a really flawed game.

I rather make a thread about how annoying it is to require social media accounts to even post drawings then get mad about the map rotation.

But thats just me.

I'm different.
 
Struggling to rise above 200%. Keep losing in Wave 3...

And just lost in round one when the last person was much more concerned with eggs than getting teammates up.
 
Damn lol i ordered gold aviators but they are 30k gold lol.

Welp hopefully salmon run pays me good today.
Otherwise i still have 97 50% extra money tickets:P

I ordered a blue shirt that was 50,000G. And I had only a couple hours to hustle some G.

I pulled it off, but cod damn, you gotta be squiddin' me, Murch!
 
Any way to unregister an amiibo so another user in the same Switch can get the gear? My wife just started playing

When I played Splatoon on Saturday morning, the first thing I did was went over to see which of my orders had arrived. Some sweet headphones for 30k. I only had ~10k saved up.

I had a quick few goes on Salmon Run after that, enough to get my first 100pt bonus, and it was 32k gold. Nice. Most gold I'd gotten before as a bonus prize was 4k.
