If you stay back to paint your base when the match starts, you'll give time to the other team to gain territory. Save painting the base for when you respawn.

A lot of people just super jump everywhere though.

I first paint the base while moving ahead to build up my super, then I charge through the middle with my bubbler and push into the enemies' base. If I've wiped enough of the opposing team out, I can then double back to the middle and have a new bubbler ready to defend the area from their second push.

or go as far forward as you can and when you're confident super jump back to the base

I don't see people super jumping back to the base often, it can be pretty crucial

Isnt that going to happen anyway when you die?

The point of painting first is that you dont have to worry about it when you have 30 seconds left or so heated that a roller killed you that you want to jump back in the fight immediately.

I have won and lost matches where our base had so much unpainted space and the other team was a solid color.

 

[Violet_0]

violet teleporting all over the place at the end there, not cool >->

it's my special power

but seriously, is anyone else experiencing this?

 

[DNAbro]

Woah, I've only hit the 1600s a few times, getting close to 1900 is crazy. What loadout were you using?

Aerospray RG. Has mines and orbital strike thing.

 

[Kouriozan]

It is done, unlocked every mini-games

 

[BlueSilver]

Any rooms going on that aren't full?

I'm trying to join violet & company right now, but if it's full then we can start another room if you want!

 

[Mesoian]

Mine isn't, but I'm still experimenting with the double splatter at he moment

 

[TheApatheticOne]

It's be nice if I could win a single game today. Scrubby team after scrubby team after scrubby team today. Really burning me out. Not just losing either... like 20% tops for my team.

 

[superbank]

You know whether you're on a good team or not if they stay behind and cover the base BEFORE charging ahead. Too many times have I been the only guy spraying the base; it takes up so much of my play time

I disagree. Maybe you could succeed that way but I always make a push for the center/important turf right off the bat. The idea is you need to get there before the other team does, cutting them off from the majority turf. If your team (maybe 2 minimum) doesn't get to that mid point then the enemy team can push even further into your territory, slowing the pace of your progress while they take the majority uncontested.

Cleaning up home base in the beginning is for the Roller. If I get killed using guns I'll fill out parts of the base on respawn if I'm not needed on the frontlines.

 

[R.D.Blax]

This feeling when you manage to win by a few percent even with a deco at the begining

 

[MrPanic]

Don't. Just spray the way to the battlefield, when respawning spray the rest. Filling it out only denies your team of easy special refill while re-entering the battle, the base needs to be filled by the end of the match, not the beginning.

 

[Kid Ska]

I'm dying for a map replay that shows the flow of coverage over the match.

Oh shit I want this more than ranked.

 

[Xeteh]

I haven't noticed it

I'm playing with several gaffers if anyone wants to join.

The base is the least important area at the start, why would you waste time spraying any more than you need to form a path to get to the centre and prevent the bad guys taking that area?

You can get the base properly on respawns.

 

[MrPanic]

Singleplayer blueprint from world 3 I think, don't know the level you need to wield it.

Me !

 

[pringles]

I don't get the Aersospray RG.. has to be glitched or something. Never seen a game where someone who uses it doesn't finish first with huge scores. Meanwhile I'm having 10-1 games where I fill in half the map on my own with the roller and get 1000 points? How is the aerospray rewarding so many points.

Exactly. Rush the middle, hold it. If you die, paint the base to build your super on the way back to the middle. Using this method I've lost maybe 5 of the last 20+ matches.

 

[DNAbro]

Just got to rank 16! Man this game is addictive.

So is that officially the best gun in the game?

I see lots of Japanese players rocking the gold one.

Making a beeline to the center is not wise unless you are seeking higher ground as a charger. Moving forward with constant stops at vantage points to spray paint in all directions (sprinkler-style) gains points, gives you more painted area to maneuver within during battle, and builds your super up to help take control of the middle.

Whenever I've seen someone use the gold one they always have 1300+ points. If they are on the winning team at least.

 

[Beelzebufo]

I know it's you, but whatever. I'm talking about weapon balancing.

It's not different than having some characters better than others in Smash Bros I don't think. All the weapons seem to be perfectly usable, it's just fast fire are a little better for this mode.

 

[DanteRavenkin]

Just finished the single player mode. The final boss is amazingly fun. I hope they add more levels later on.

 

[DNAbro]

It's by far the most versatile gun and was really good sub weapons.

 

[Mesoian]

It is, by far, the best purely offensive weapon in the game. It's amazing.

 

[foxuzamaki]

My teamate arent covering the fucking ground, im doing all the actual work!!!

 

[BlueSilver]

My hands are shakey today. Heh.

 

[Zomba13]

I've just unlocked it. About to use it for the first time.

EDIT: first time using it wit a bunch of new gear to get unlocks and I got 1283p.

 

[NeoRausch]

I think it starts June 20th.

Team Cat for me. Better red than dead.

Definitely!

Ok, GAF room is full. Starting a new one in five minutes, NNID is Skiesofwonder for those not already on my friends list.

I dominated the review servers with that weapon. Now I have to replay the single player again in order to obtain my... precious.

 

[Vampirolol]

Invisible squid is the best thing ever!

 

[Kouriozan]

I'm already level 10 so I'm going to try to finish the remaining Amiibo challenge for now.

 

[NeoRausch]

Do you need the amiibos every time you want to do the challenges or is it "scan them once and unlocked forever"?

 

[MrPanic]

I don't know, but it lays down ink faster than rollers and almost instakill at close range, it's kinda lame really.

 

[Xeteh]

Scan once each time you run the game.

 

[OBias]

Bubblers can go die in a fire.

Learn to retreat at the right time, turn into squid and jump back in your ink.

 

[Rabbit Clock]

When do the shops get restocked?

 

[NeoRausch]

Scan once each time you run the game.

Dang... So lending them from somebody won't do it, eh?

I guess I need to buckel up some money...

 

[serenewarfare]

Just started using the Aerospray. Feel like an idiot for not using it earlier. What an awesome weapon. Just posted my two best rounds.

 

[arimanius]

Sent you a friends request. NNID is angra_mainya. Anyone feel free to send me a request. Just let me know your from gaf.

 

[Gsnap]

Imagine if the aerospray had a bubbler... O_O

 

[Regiruler]

Whenever I've seen someone use the gold one they always have 1300+ points. If they are on the winning team at least.

But if they lose, they tend to lose somewhat badly.

I don't know, but it lays down ink faster than rollers and almost instakill at close range, it's kinda lame really.

I've tried it. Its kills feel too inconsistent.

 

[Beelzebufo]

Does the game like mirror visuals or something? I was always on the same side on the oil rig level.
