So... if turf wars was a ranked mode, would still play it?

Walruses, camels, bears, rabbits, tigers and badgers.
I felt the same way until splatzones. Obviously every mode is gonna be different, but my whole squid world has been turned upside down now. Adjusting is a bitch :lol
almost flawlessThey're not as good as I thought initially, it's easy for the enemy to break the lock because they don't turn fast, but if you can surprise someone and have a straight shot, it's an easy kill. And you can slink away as a squid in that second or two while the seeker is on its way, which is nice.

BioShock Infinite is like playing some homeless guy's vivid imagination
Basically king of the hill mode.
This is what a 2-zone Splat Zones match will be like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIDg4FjyxNM
You need to control both to earn points. The poor media folks I was playing against never stood a chance.

Kraken roller is still super strong, paint choke points, place telepads for team and kill with kraken
Cool I'll add u later, I'm level 20 too but considering we can't play with friends ranked I'm gonna try to get a few regular battles with u guys
Ranked is insane but in the chaos it allows me to perch atop in Saltspray Rig on the enemy side. It's worked so well in every game I played tonight. That + the Seeker and the .56 Gal and man they don't see it coming.
The new map is really interesting, too. You have to utilize both the high-ground and low-ground to break through to the center and get to enemy territory. I look forward to playing more of it tomorrow... when the maintenance isn't going on (and hopefully it'll be in rotation as well).
I'm also interested in how the other maps will play out in Splat Zones. I've only had the pleasure to play Saltspray Rig, Urchin Underpass wasn't getting picked for me. :/

Yeah, definitely. I just want to be A+ rank lol. But both modes are really fun so far.

Ah, ok. Good luck with that. lol
The first thing I do on that map is run for the enemy perch.
Also, I discovered the ledge next to it is a perfect place to guard the "entrance".
One more thing, splat zones is a great mode to put those "spawn points" to use (I forget what they are called). The enemy will be expecting you to appear from your base. A spawn point off to the side is amazing.
It's too good. They fucked up.
I'm curious to see if that makes for more engaging matches. I wonder what else, if anything, they could do. The most fun I've had in this mode so far is the one match that was actually super close.

I just realized I havent spent any of my gold in the past couple days. 100,000 gold unspent. Lol.
So fucking true
Would love to hear from the people who were criticizing Nintendo for holding back Splatzone.
#NerfNZap?
I think trying to get to level 20 on turf war first so you can get better weapons would be better.
Its what I'm gonna do. I might play a bit of ranked every now and then but its not my focus.

I painted some portions in order to build up my inkstrike! It's a good tactic, but not in excess.

Ranked is fun by my god the teams can be idiotic at times, really frustrating to get penalized despite performing well. Rank shouldn't be tied to your team mates imo, but your individual success even if you lose.
I have not played a single match yet where it has lasted 5 minutes. Even ones that were very back and forth ended before the timer ran out.

Exactly
Jintor is making fun of us baka gaijins again!
Yeah that's exactly where I perch on Saltspray Rig! It's ridiculous. You can just hide in your own ink, enemies don't realize you're up there and you can just shoot them from above ezpz. And it's really easy to guard yourself as well if you check behind you and even fill the space behind you with ink to make them waste time to try and climb up to the perch to get you.
In reference to the spawn points, you're so right. I had that experience where one or two of my teammates had that spawn point thing and they placed them in the area where the crane is on Saltspray Rig. Complete lifesaver as it allowed me to get right back into the action to gain control of the zone again when time was running out.

The meter build up for both teams can get so crazy if they're just constantly painting over eachother's ink.
...what an insane game for nintendo to release, my word
