Oh, seems a useless weapon then. Tis a shame, I always like burst weapons in FPS and the Disrupter is my favourite Sub so I figured it could work out as a good close range weapon. Think again huh?

Ninja squid perk should just be a little ring around your left stick preventing you from swimming at full speed for minimized detection
We could call it: self control
It still kills pretty damn quickly and the triple shot makes for good inkage over a open spaces and corridors.
Ah, okay. It's hard to tell if your mind is playing tricks on you or not, so that's good to hear they didn't go crazy with the nerf. It still felt viable, playing around with it just now.
I guess after Smash, I don't trust Nintendo to not go crazy nerfing things with the word "ninja" in it.
With 99.9 it would kill if they're standing in your ink so it could still be useful. It's a decent gun.

How long does maintenance usually take?
Edit: Ninja Squid didn' get roughed up like I thought either. Good stuff Splatoon team.
Same here, I'm messing with Project M in the meantime.

Sorry, I realized soon after I wrote that post that I used the wrong word. My bad.

So I just got this. Aesthetic is winning me over already. I had to switch off gyro control almost immediately though. Is there getting used to it? It's like Nintendo wants you to flail your arms around like a child every time I've seen it implemented instead of resting your elbows on your thighs like a normal person.
Yes it takes some getting used to. You can rest your arms on your thighs and still use gyro.

Start off with a lower sensitivity. I use Gyro at -2 and there's almost no flailing (unless I'm standing up and trying to sit down, in which case, obviously), so I got used to it pretty quickly. Then go bumping the sensitivity if you feel like it.

Yeah, I hate gyro controls as well.
That was one of my main complaints. I was afraid that after the tutorial made you use them, the rest of the game would as well. Glad that's optional.
Then again, I also hate that there's dialogue everywhere. In a game that pretty much gets rid of all the crap preventing players from actually playing the game, such as the quickness between joining a lobby and a match starting, and even just a match starting after the previous one ended. It just kind of frustrates me I have to rapidly tap A to skip through all this dialogue every time I start the game, and every time I enter a shop.
Would be such a better game if the dialogue were optional.
Went off on a brief unrelated rant there.

Manual text crawls really bother me in this game. You can't just hold B to quick-skip through the text, you have to tap A once to display-all, then tap it again to dispel the textbox. The result is button mashing through every news update. And god help you if you accidentally press the wrong button in the lobby. Have fun mashing through an unskippable explanation of the current game-mode.

New to this game as well, so I didn't realize they disband lobbies to display news most people will skip through.
I got this right before I stopped earlier:
I said that I would stop re-rolling it once I got down to 100K cash, and based Spyke gave me this just as I got down to 100K.
how do you do this you magic man you
how many inkling student loans did you take out
I'm guessing the lobbies are different for each map so they have to kick you out of lobbies using the old maps so that you can get into the lobbies using the new maps.
Considering all of the notation from the Squid Sisters as well as the icons in the lobby indicate only "regular battle" and "ranked battle," my assumption is Tower Control and Splat Zones will occasionally alternate as the Ranked mode du jour.

I start spamming the c'mon prompt. They never listen.
And I'm also gonna presume these modes will share the same rank. No question about it then.
At the same time, I think there is value in not overextending yourself. Sometimes an enemy is behind our main line and just cleaning house and my team thinks they have the game won. No, look behind you they retook the whole map. You fools!
Wow, phanphare, I don't know how we won that.
The last minute is supposed to be all out, not lets sit and wait at this corner.

Ink Resistance Up feels like shit now.
Overextending in the last minute means you lose.
There's less risk in the last 30 seconds, if you really want to push. The rest of the game should be about controlling the map, not extending.
I'm talking when we're down, of course I don't mean rushing in to their spawn. I mean simply getting ground, especially on maps like the Mall will just sit at corners and play shootout instead of looking for openings.
Respectfully disagree. If you have a good angle (very weapon dependent though TBH) hold it, and control your space. Stay on line of site of at least one teammate. Don't let them use any defenders advantage when you turn a corner into their barrage and then enable them to comeback. In Turf Wars I constantly tell myself "ok that was a great run, don't overextend yourself".
I mostly play longer range weapons like Custom Jet Squelcher so it's more like "don't get too close and die", so maybe it's different for me.'
If you're down by a lot that's different, true. It sucks to have your teammates just sitting back when your team doesn't even have 40% of the map with 30 seconds left.
Oh well sure, if you're down you need more ground lol
