Twice did my connection go bad at the last seconds of a match, with my shots not registering ink. Probably wouldnt make much of a difference in outcome, but it's still annoying :P

Last game I went all MGS and inked all the side corridors near the enemy's spawn. Thought we had that match in the bag, until I looked down on my minimap and saw the enemy totally overtook our spawn area too, lol.

Good fun, can't wait to try it with more weapons/combinations!
 
Nintendo pulled the plug for good guys :/

Ah man this game is so much fun! I'm willing to become day 1 with this game. Nintendo has something great on their hands with this game and it has the potential to become something bigger. They better not mess it up with weird quirks to prevent longevity.

See you guys May 29th!
Or maybe, because we can't do party matchmaking until August! lol smh
 
This thing is awesome, Pre-ordered the game with the 3 amiibos, see you all in a month!

Its odd, I had so many disconnects today while yesterday I didn't have any.

Still swear by the Splattershot Jr. The spread makes painting turf so quick, and you can still shoot up over edges unlike the roller.
 
The demo really won me over. So damn incredible.
and at £30 i cant refuse, but since its launching when i have exams. It wont be day 1.
Day 6 purchase confirmed here!
 
I'm getting too comfortable with the Roller but I've been having very good success with it so no incentive to switch, yet, haha.

We'll see if SplatoonGAF will be able to punish me.
 
That hour went by fast. I was just beginning to develop my counter against the roller. Jump over the roller, do a quick camera turn with the Y button and shoot him from behind. The timing with the camera turn can be tricky, I NEED MORE TIME WITH THE GAME!
 
It's over, managed to win my final game. There were much more errors this time around though, some of which were on my end.

I hope they schedule more of these
 
I had a lot of disconnects in this session, everyone else had the same problem?

However, my best match had 2 roller on the other team, and I sniping them with the normal pistol to avoid them color too much. Not bad!
 
I guess the lack of Japanese players in this round was really noticeable - I estimate about 15 minutes total spent waiting for other players.
 
Those were an awesome combined 3 hours.

I really hope Nintendo reconsiders and let's people play this demo every Saturday at those times.

Really really fun.

Rollers are definitely not as OP as everyone makes them out to be. If you have any other weapon just walk backwards and shoot at them, that's how I got killed most of the time.

I will stay with the Roller as my weapon of choice. It's the perfect weapon in Turf Wars at least and being able to instantly kill a guy by rolling over him or shooting him in close proximities is really satisfying.
Had a round in this last hour where I had 7 kills with 0 deaths. Great feeling.

I'm so glad I was able to pre-order the game with the Squid amiibo when it's basically sold-out everywhere right now.

Can't wait for the post-launch content.
 
It was a good time but I wasn't super addicted or anything. I may pick it up if I have absolutely nothing else to play, but i'm sure I'll get it somewhere down the line.
 
I enjoyed my time, just wish Nintendo were more thoughtful with regional pricing. Bear in mind $60 is a lot to me.
I'm not sure this game is worth their asking price. I would buy a lot more Nintendo games if prices were more reasonable. It's the reason I only own a couple Nintendo games, which have a lot of value (Smash, Mario Kart).
Would definitely buy if it was $30 on eshop or something.
 
Actually used gyro for this session...

I am converted.

IN fact it's really the best way to use charge shot for me.

With the the splatershot variant I've been getting over 1100 points.
 
Really addicting. That's all I can say!

I really started to understand the game better and was 1st or 2nd constantly.

29th can't come too soon.
 
Gonna join the chorus with the Splattergun Jr. That gun is awesome.

Also tried the charger, but it's pretty hard to use. Most kills I got in one game with it was 4. It's pretty stressful trying to aim when a roller is charging right at you
 
If they add a tower defense or survival mode to this game, I will buy it guaranteed. Otherwise, I can do without. Its fun but I like for my games to have more depth. I doubt the single player will be anything but kiddy.
 
;_; 20 more days. So I did 2 hours and am really impressed, very fun game! Second hour I pretty much won every game, the third hour I lost pretty much every game, hehe. Third hour I played with a player who was clearly better than me and he was always on the opposite team, I always like it when you're up to someone who is better, you can only learn from it. So ggs to NUK_James, wherever you are, maybe on GAF, I learned alot from you and I'll be back when the game launches!

Can't wait for the game!
 
Damn, that hour went fast. Definitely liking it more than I expected, and aside from the shitty gyro Y-axis default controls it feels solid. Should be a fun time in the full release in a couple of weeks.
 
Well that got me more hyped than any videos so far. Lot's of fast-paced fun and I can see this being a good game for me to play in between some darker games.

Can't wait for the full version.

Click to expand...

I did actually. I had two compared to last night where I had none. It can't be my connection, it's been rock solid and I recently got an ethernet adapter for my Wii U.
 
Despite games where I lose, I want to jump right back in! Net code is so good and it takes less than 30 seconds to get into the next game.
 
Now to keep wiggling the stick so my Wii U doesn't shut off and the tutorial NEVER ENDS.

I had one single error when first trying to get on for the third stress test. I think we have *zero* things to worry about with the net code, and I'm pretty shocked to be saying that.

This was even better than I was hoping. Finally I have another online game :) (AVP2010 was the last one I really put time into, something about movement tricks and verticality and crawling on walls...).
 
Wow, our team got beat bad during the last and final match. Found out I was the only one doing anything with over 700 while 2nd place around 200 and last 2 had 0......how can anybody get 0?
 
Oh and I think I'm sticking with the gyro controls. I tried one match with only the stick and it just didn't feel right.
 
Finally got to play and absolutely loved it, game is so fun. Not a fan of the roller but besides that its so good. Well and the games might be alittle short but thats no biggie.

And also is it me or is the music that plays during the matches really good?
