Like, in what way did they not deserve the win? They take the territory from you, right? Are you at the zone defending? Are you there? You held the territory for the entire penalty time, what's stopping you holding it before they cap it? The penalty counter only resets if they cap it, and they need a pretty large majority of the zone to cap it, and you were defending it this entire time, so it's indeed possible for you to hold the zone. So what's the problem? How is it 'unfair'?

I think his complaint is that you get a big punishment for a small mistake. But I can't speak on it much, I still haven't exactly figured out how the penalty points are distributed. I originally thought it was based on how long the the zone was in neutral for after being lost by a team, but I've seen both 2 point penalties and 50 point penalties for a zone being lost and claimed within a second or two.
 
The penalty is for the time remaining on the clock for the team that just incurred the penalty/lost the point. The lower the time remaining, the more penalty points there are. Basically, for getting the football nearly to the line but then fumbling it, they get hit hard... and so they should.

Penalty points don't reset if you can keep the other team from capping the point - say it goes from A to neutral and A re-caps it before B can get it. A's penalty points don't reset and they can continue on as before. So I think it's totally fair - just ensure your defence game is on-point.
 
Is it me or is this game fast becoming a system seller. It's loved by almost all that play it. Even with the lack of content for the time being. I listened to a bunch of podcast and everyone is addicted and loving it.
 
What's everyone's weapon load-out for both ranked and turf war. I just cant quite decide which ones are best suited to each mode. Advice would be much appreciated.

Run Speed Up/Ninja Squid/Run Speed Up w/ Aerospray is my current "serious" set-up for Turf Wars

Quick Respawn x3 w/ Aerospray is what I use when I don't feel like playing the game properly

Haven't done much Ranked since I tried it at level 10 and decided I would get much better gear before trying it again. Still not satisfied with my gear and still not sure what weapon I'll use.
 
I got up to rank B in Splat Zones, then yesterday started losing one match after another, with an unbelievable succession of 3 defeats with my team at 7 - 8 and 3 points left.
It hurt so much. :S

I use Aerospray RG for turf war, Dual Squelcher for ranked. I'll swap in a Krak-On Splat Roller for either if I don't feel like using my brain that particular evening.

This "lack of content" has given me more joy than any other game this year.
 
I'm so tired of the Krak-on rollers and I main the Jr.(tho gal gun is great)! I'm just tired of getting stuck in rooms with 5~7 rollers in them.

Apart from sub weapons is their any difference between the Aerospray RG and the Aerospray MG?
 
got over 1300pts.... on the losing team ಠ_ಠ
my teammates man. ugh

Finally getting the hang of ranked too~ I kept trying to go in with aerospray and it wasn't working so switched it up to one of the more powerful weapons. Was getting way more kills :D

Which weapon is it?
 
There are plans to add more gear other than the Squid Girl outfit, right? I recall them saying that in the Direct but I can't check at the moment.

I feel like I've seen all the clothes at this point. There's a lot, but I want more!
 
I guess this is splatoon related, somehow.

This appeared this morning near my workplace.

So on the cusp of going up a rank (94) and winning on the Skatepark I get a disconnection and lose points. I try again and get a group that I couldn't win anything with. Sigh.

Also, I saw someones Inkling say "It looks like this meme maker came with a free game". lol

You have to stack it. Some cool abilities to stack 2+ of in general:

Quick Respawn: This is funny and I highly recommend trying it out. It's actually really legit if you get splatted several times a match on average.
Damage Up: Chargers only. Chargers' charge shots can kill in one hit and therefore they do not have a damage cap. Their partly charged shots benefit from this so you can stack Damage Up up the ass to OHKO with notably less charge.
Ink Saver: Self-Explanatory. Also, going by the official guide, Sub has a bigger effect than Main in terms of %.
Run Speed Up: Excellent mobility, worth trying out.
Bomb Range Up: You can throw bombs far, 50% farther with max stacking. That's kind of overkill though and of course certain weapons don't benefit from this.

This got me thinking, why was it bomb range up and not throw range up? Then again maybe that is to stop people being able to get the sprinklers into possible to shoot down locations (there are already enough hard locations). Of course the best way to get rid of a sprinkler is to splat the person who summoned it (at least mine always when I get splatted).

hit lv8 after about 8hours, keep coming first everytime :/ what's with these people getting sub 300

edit wrote 8 instead of 4

I noticed that to a lot. It makes it harder to win. I usually get anywere from 350 points to 950 points in a turf war match.
 
Done for the night/early morning, but before I go, what my Inkling looks like right now:

I like the look so much, I'm thinking of spending 60K-90K just to re-roll abilities on the jacket and get a third slot on the shoes.

Yup, looking rad!
 
How do you get some of the helmets in splatoon? I know some of them from beating the aiimbo challenges, but all I seem to get in the hat shop in the plaza are mostly bandannas and hats that cost usually under 1500.

I've seen 2 helmets at 3* and brought them from the shop.

I think it's just random, but the higher level you are the higher chance you have of better gear appearing.

Higher levels gives you access to more expensive gears. Also, clothing shops change their lineup everyday so make sure to visit these shops more often. You might get lucky to find a football helmet.
 
Hello, I'm still undecided if buying Splatoon. I only tried it briefly during the testfire but it didn't make an outstanding impression to me. I find general design and game feeling very good, I think single player should be fun but multiplayer, which is the game focus, looks quite oversimplified to me, with smallish maps and overly strict time limits. Didn't felt very strategic in general nor tactical in eventual 1vs1 gunfire.

But since I didn't closely follow what the game has to offer, would anyone be so kind to make a short recap of game modes present/announced and multiplayer settings? Time limit is always fixed? Game scope is always paint more surface than vs team?
 
There are too many disconnections tonight. 5 players have been disconnected in the last three matches I've played (trying separate groups, not just retrying the same people). Both times it was 2 disconnections, they were from the same team. And there were more disconnections earlier today.

How do you get 3-starred gear from Spike with all the abilities set. He will only sell me stuff with 3 ?'s

Spyke sells replica's of other player's gear, so if those have 3 stars, your copy will too.

Check out a player with A and press X if you want a copy from Spyke.
