Splatoon |OT2| Prepare to Dye

Yea, I haven't seen many people use that.

A similar thing I haven't seen many people use is this:

You can get to the top part directly and more quickly compared to every other path to top. Shooters and especially Chargers can use that easily.
I absolutely do this all the time. Well... not ALL the time. Sometimes I'm sneaking up on the enemy side and there's someone at the top already, in which case I ink up those pipes instead. They're a bit harder to get a consistant coating on though.

There's also two sets of pipes that you can use to climb up from the bottom section of the level, in case you don't have time to wait for the moving platforms, or you know they're being watched.

The best thing about inking wall routes, is that most opponents consider it a waste of time to spray over the ink. Once you have that one shot off, you have an easy route to the top for the rest of the match.
 
Why am I getting connection errors all of a sudden? I just started the game a few minutes ago, began a match, and I received the unstable connection warning.

This has been going on since yesterday since the new map came in. Weird.
 
Interested in this game but almost every review I read and watch says its a $40 game, not a $60 game. I can't find a demo for this game, is it true that they got rid of the demo ?

Can't effin' stand people who would use dollar amounts to ultimately pass judgement on a game. I mean as far as raw amount of content, sure some might argue that it contains less than other $60 software on the market, but by the end of the summer it will ABSOLUTELY have what most would rather arbitrarily consider $60 worth of content following the free additional content

...but it comes down to replay value and whether you find the core of the game fun. I'm also close to 60 hours already on this game and they will continually rack up.

To be far, the profits I gained from selling Ness, Lucina, Greninja, and Robin Amiibos entirely paid for The game and the splatoon amiibo 3 pack (and then a little some extra) but it was absolutely worth the ~9 hours of my time on line at Nintendo World
 
Sorry guys. Got disconnected. Internet's a bit spotty right now I guess. Even my phone is acting up a little.

I might get back on later.
 
There's one guy on the other team that's lagging reeeeeally badly.

I think I was lagging one match and it really screwed up an opponent's roller. He snuck up on me and splatted me 3 times but each time the game left me alive long enough to turn around and splat them before I died.
 
I see more and more(from pretty much none) of people just lagging but the match doesn't Disconnect like it usually does. Which is sorta, one bad problem for another. But at least it lets us finish a match

Also, the connection services are included, so if you play long enough it pays for itself!
 
Does anyone feel good enough to win a match on ranked even if your team is lacklustre?

I often get the highest on my team, but we get dominated. I've gone down from B to C the past couple days. It all kind of just feels like the luck of being on a good team, and I've got extremely unlucky lol.
 
I saw one of my teammates do that yesterday. I left the spawn point and noticed that he put a beacon like two yards away from it. I was like "Uhhhh..."

It's kind of annoying. Not a huge deal, could've just been a kid. But when you're the only gaffer who gets stuck on the opposite team and everyone else is together, it would be nice to have good teammates.

I actually think it's kind of fun that the teams are randomized, but not when there's only 4 of us in the room.
 
Been nursing a hangover all day today, but maybe its time to jump back in, played kelp dome yesterday maybe once or twice, hopefully its in the current rotation.

Except reviewing a game based on the content not there yet is crazy. For a lot of people $60 for Splatoon at launch was too much. For those of us who have been playing it constantly its been fine and each addition makes it better. However I totally understand judging the game on the cost.

This really doesn't seem like a game where a single person can win the game. They can be the turning point if the rest of the team converts off a strong push where you kill the entire team or something, but when you have 4 people actually on a point it's damn near insurmountable if your team is just kamikaze diving into the center(which, when they die, splatters more enemy ink).

It's turned me off of ranked a lot not being able to team up with anyone, I have zero patience regarding stuff like that.
 
God tonight is not my night. Either I'm getting paired with awful teammates or my Wii U is deciding my wifi connection isn't good enough for it
