Everytime I found that Violet had me on his crooshair I lost it. I mean, I think I was about to have a heart attack.
I had to rely on surprise attacks or flanking him while he was busy with other teammate.
Such tension, damnit

If I recall correctly, it was almost full on Saturday. I was surprised that it didn't fill completely on Sunday.
So yeah... I guess they wanted to release it on a certain date anyway.

Yep, no way we didn't hit the mark yesterday. They're pulling a Valve on us.
It has to be.
Hell they probably won't even unlock it til this evening or tmrw.
I don't think Nintendo understood how fast people rank up in these game. That or they are letting the ranking system sort itself behind the scenes

They've only been updating it each day at around 4~5pm Japan time.
I expect the next update to be in about 16 or 17 hours if the trend continues.
Watched the quick look of this...the roller is ridiculous lol wth. Seems about what I expected though the traversal looks like it has interesting potential for a shooter...is it clunky at all (when swimming in and jumping from ink)?
Saw one of the jumps they did and it looked like a lot of fun, just dashing around, shooting the ground to go faster and getting quite good air leapage.
2 hours per map rotation is a bit nuts though.

That's too much of a wait. It should be available today.

Quick questions guys:
1) Can Japanese players play with US/EU players?
2) Can content unlocked online (costumes etc) be used offline?
3) can the Amiibo unlock costumes be used online?

I'm not even kidding about the range on that thing and how much ink it actually puts down, they could probably take an entire splat zone in just 2 shots.
1. Yes and they seem to wreck
2. In 1v1, but the single player campaign is different
3. Yes

Does mixing or matching gear brand matter?
It doesn't seem like it'd be much of a hinderance unless they put a splat zone by a spot that can be camped like that. It's not too bad to go against otherwise.

A nice inkstrike would do the trick or a sneaky charge shot. That part of the rig is a campers dream come true. So many people sit there and pick people off with a long range weapon. Better off going for the cargo bay.

Nah I don't think it will be out till Tuesday or Wednesday.
Definitely, after they roll out all the planned free stuff.
I'm playing with DaBoss and Kouichi.

I am expecting Octolings to be made available via DLC in the future. I don't think they would have given them the same powers as Inklings (even the ghost animation) for nothing.
DLC maps will likely be a thing too and I would love DLC music as well.
Guessing they'll do some paid stuff after the free stuff since the game's such a hit.
I also wouldn't be surprised if they later released an update that made non-Splatoon Amiibo unlock Nintendo-themed clothing.
They just ran away from the Inkstrikes since we couldn't really block their retreat, and we didn't have any chargers on our team.
It's sad to think a roller had more range than anyone on my team.

Amiibo.
I'm gonna add you in a short while. Gonna join one friend's room first.
Oh thanks. I mean 2 hours was bad enough that 4 hours doesn't make too much of a difference really. It may be even better as I can play a few rounds then be like, yeah maybe some more later. And not worry about coming back to it and finding they've reverted back to the same maps that day.
Think I'll pick this up, does look fun.
It's crazy how they even did it all around the Inkling typography. Most people won't even see the back of this box, and hell most devs wouldn't even bother to put something like that there, and yet Nintendo still did it.
You'll be like the rest of us and play for the full 4 hours without realizing it.

ordered my inkling amiibos from 3 different stores 
Walmart Amazon and some Shop in Japan for the Squid
Nintendo needs to fix this stuff a 3 pack is too hard to find

I think this game would benefit greatly from extended longevity via DLC like Mario Kart 8 had.
And they should totally make the Mario amiibo unlock a Fludd weapon.
Nintendo is amazing. <3

If this actually gets supported like MK8 like most people say, I think we will get some extra missions for SP too
Yeah this. It's annoying.
Well I shouldn't complain too much since my SO gives up and play with my inkling instead, leveling me up in the process.
Oh my god, just fought someone using the exact same tactic on Blackbelly Skatepark. They just stood on the tower in the middle and and covered the entire area in ink. Couldn't snipe them because they killed you before you could manage it with the throw attack, couldn't sneak up on them because they'd just roll you over and splat you (the player was literally just running around in a circle on the tower whenever someone tried to get up there), and they had a constant sprinkler going too, surrounding them with ink.
The Dynamo Roller seems to be the weapon for scumbag campers, fantastic. Never encountered this weapon before today but i'm already fucking sick of it.

Locking weapons behind amiibos? No thanks. Gears are fine, but weapons is going too far.
Nintendo IP themed levels would be amazing.
