Agree 100%.
I love Salmon Run. I want to play it, but this week is code lock for the project I'm on at work. I'll be lucky to get home by 9PM CST.
Just make it a full 24 hours Nintendo. Come on.
About to hit level 10,
Really appreciate the greater focus on movement and range when attacking / turf war in Splatoon 2. Feels like the change in maps has really brought out the best in mechanics
Will play splat jnr to level 10. Anybody feel like humouring me and updating me with how the other guns compare to splat jnr in range, play style and skill level?

Splattershot is better in probably every way.

Had glowflies on the 1st wave for the first time today...wow did we get wrecked.
My only guess is they had no idea how popular it would be but even then just make it available on a consistent schedule. Geeze.

I think I'm ready to make this bold claim.
I liked the maps in the first Splatoon more than this game. Like, a lot more.
My two favorite Splatoon 2 maps are....the two returning maps from the previous entry. I hope we get more classic maps soon. I need Saltspray Rig and Kelp Dome back in my life. I also hope future new maps are a lot more interesting than what we have now.

When you have a good round with the slosher, it feels so good! In those games it's my favorite weapon.
When things don't go your way though, it can feel so inept.

holy shite, I wanted to play while lying on my bed so I decided to turn off the motion controls. sweet lord was that a bad idea. 🙃
maybe it's easier with the larger analog sticks of the pro controller but aiming with the joy con sticks is virtually impossible. for me at least...

The Jr. was one of my better weapons in 1 but that was because the Bubbler was so good for aggressive flanking play. Ink Armor is way too slow on start up for flanking and it doesn't ink efficiently enough to justify it.
If you wanted Ink Armor to be your preferred special, go with the N-Zap. You have better walk speed when firing, faster rate of fire, the spread isn't as wide, paints faster, shots have slightly longer range, suction bomb is better for scaring away pursuers / baiting sharking players, and has slightly more damage.
The Bubbler was the only thing that made the Jr. worth using and now it's gone so it's pure trash now. Use N-Zap, Splattershot, or Duelies if you like to play aggressive instead.
Srb2Dude made a follow up video on Motion Controls.
I don't play with those sharp movements but he mentions something that I never considered that might explain why people may be having trouble with motion:
Are you guys using motion for all your camera work & aiming without touching the right stick at all?
Perfect, thanks.
I think I'm with you, nothing really stands out about the new maps that makes them memorable, except maybe the skatepark. They don't really have anything unique about them, and they mostly seem focused on a raised section in the centre.
Thanks for posting this. I tested out motion controls without using the right stick and didn't like it. Now that I have a better understanding as to how he uses motion controls, I'll give it another shot.

I'm getting a communication error every second game. It's helping my single player progression but it's really annoying. I never this many dc with the original.

Man, the Splatling feels really good. It does suck when you don't have high ground, though.

I'm away from my Switch trying to plan a Salmon Run session with a co-worker, can anyone tell me if it's up Thursday, and, if so, the times in EDT? We're both off then.

Salmon Run is brutal right now. The only time I've won in the last several matches is when I don't get the charger at all during the 3 waves.

I've found that Pro Controller with motion controls off works pretty well. You have to turn sensitivity up though, at least I did. Once I did that it felt pretty good.
I'm gonna have to use PTO just to play this...lol

I noticed that the game is veeerrryyyy finicky about wifi connections. When I'm in my room I get disconnections every few games but if I play in the room next door, which is right above my router, or anywhere downstairs I have absolutely zero problems. I don't have any connection issues with other games though, just seems to be Splatoon 2.

Gotta turn the sensitivity WAY down in that case. I play at -4.0 with the joy con sticks.

Anyone know when the game is getting new maps? My main gripe with the game atm is that most of the maps feel really samey outside of Moray Towers, Pumptrack, and Port Mackerel (two of which are old maps!)

Man, the amount of times I screamed "get on the fucking tower, you idiots!" in Ranked right now...
I mean, we won most matches, some of them KO (and one with 99 points, lol).
But in one game, I killed the last remaining enemy while he killed me and in death I saw the tower going back because no one was on it. That was just a bit maddening.

You can scrub maxed out gear clean from merch for like 20k. Otherwise, you can't toss an old equip unless you are replacing it with a duplicate(which may have a different main ability). You can't sell equipment either.

The carbon roller is reeeeaaally bad, and i feel like this map needs a good roller cause the map is so compact.
It *can* be fun when you lose, but only if you lost in an interesting way. A straight curb-stomp just makes you feel bad about yourself and/or your teammates. The dejection of the losing music doesn't help, tbh.

I found a weapon that works for me! About time. I'm now not dying constantly in every 1 on 1 situation. Game may start being more enjoyable now.
what weapon?

I hate it when you lose teammates in Salmon Run, ruins the whole match.

Update to this. We purchased a new Switch and moved her Nintendo Account over. As expected, NOTHING is transferred. Even the stats in her phone app were overwritten by the new save.

Slosher.
gotta tell you pal, you didn't too good either... I consistently get 1000p+ even if my team loses, also, you had one disconnect, of course you were going to lose.
I have lost 3 times by 0.01% with 2 players barely above 500p, THAT fucking sucks.

Loving the game.
Just a few minor issues --
First, the fact that you can't choose your weapons in Salmon Run is whack as fuck. Also, please Nintendo, let me choose my gear as well. Dictate specials if you want, but not weapons. Leave weapon variety up to players as a strategic choice.
Secondly, I really wish Salmon Run levels weren't so tiny. It's really fun but wider spaces would improve strategic options and gameplay longevity. Also, what the fuck is up with the progression system? You can lose levels huh 🤔 Bizarre deal.
I guess that's really it, otherwise I really like the game so far.
