Splatoon |OT| Squidstyler

I'm really excited to get my hands on the game on Friday! Tuesday I go in for my Splatoon tattoo. I'll post pictures afterwards!
 
Well, 24 hours until the eshop version is ready to go. The hype is real!

Been watching streams of the multiplayer all day, been really fun to watch, especially when people take advantage of the higher ground. Also the last minute comebacks (even losses!) are always awesome. Hoping that the servers continue doing relatively well.

Can see myself trying to optimize my gear as much as possible. Hardest part will be trying to narrow down what I want my squid kid to wear.
 
Noooooo!!!.....for some reason I thought this game was coming out at midnight tonight. I guess it was seeing the OT. I was so set to play, now I have to wait a whole nother day! Whhhhhhhyyyyy


The look on your face at DnB was priceless. We'll splat on friday! PROMISE.
 
Digital of course.

I'm still fighting with me about that, I pre-ordered the amiibo version for 35€..but digital would be so much more convenient. and a game I really only can play as long as the servers are running...do I need that on a disk?..

so much fight within me >>
 
So, is Hero Jacket Replica amiibo gear or something? It's not for sale.

Damnit Spyke, I thought you were the best in the biz.
I know the hero weapon replicas are amiibo pieces, but I have no clue where the jacket is from. Single player endgame reward maybe?
 
One of my best scores so far. 1216p, 6-0 with the Jr.

It's almost like I played on Saltspray Rig before.

Yup, seems likely.
 
I dunno if I'm missing any other vids, but I think the weapon vids linked from SplatoonJP would be great to add to the OT. They're informational and they're fun to watch, particularly for the demonstration matches that are included.

To further this, I even made a playlist for them earlier today that I'll keep updating as long as they eventually get linked on NeoGAF or reddit: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsMHT6wLPwxDtZ3i83tKxC2-GQ6NzSM85
 
Local store had this today. Thought about picking it up. Actually they gave me a Wii U for super cheap, so I may go pick it up tomorrow.
 
just found out amazon.de changed the delivery day for my splatoon amiibo edition order to monday O.o..

why is this happening ;__;
 
Enemies explode and spread ink on death. However I don't think any damage is inflicted by the explosion, and I don't think ink on the floor deals fatal damage.

ground ink definitely doesn't, seems to cap at about... I don't know, 30% hp or something. I guess splat-gibs don't hurt
 
Threw my name onto the spreadsheet, hopefully I wind up being way more active for online gaming this time than I was for Smash GAF (which I'll probably get back into proper once Lucas hits).

Are you still limited to only a 100 friends per NNID?
 
Wow look at the miiverse integration is so cool.

Yep, it's badass.

Now people will be taking screenshots of their Miiverse art in the game to post on Miiverse..

Is there any way to "reroll" the bonus abilities on clothing? They say how when you order something from the urchin in the alley that you might not get the same abilities implying it's all 100% random but you can also not re-buy the same gear for a chance at better abilities. Like with the Squid Amiibo Cylon helmet, I don't like the abilities I got on it but it's my only 2* gear and it looks cool but I want different abilities.
 
You go talk to the urchin in the alley to reroll the sub abilities on gear you already own. You need a sea snail or will have to buy one from him.
 
Sea Snails are earned in Splatfests. First one will be held June 20.

Oh that makes sense then. I expected some from the single player as like, rewards or something but then thought "how would you get more?" guess that makes more sense.

Do we know if you only get one for winning or doing well or if you could farm them? First being almost a month after launch makes them seem like something that won't show up often. I guess if they are rewards (and powerful ones) then it makes sense to not have them widely available for free.
