Support NeoGAF

[backlot]

So the update should be implemented Afternoon PST Today?

Can't wait to play with the new update tomorrow.

7 PM Pacific. I guess it is technically after noon.

Grr, I've gotten to B+ 90 twice now and both times the matchmaking turned immediately against me.

Sounds familiar. I was too at B+ 90. No I'm anything between B 30 and B+
40. I don't care anymore. Getting two or three A's or A+'s against team of B+ is just ridiculous.

I have now embraced the power of Damage up with dynamo roller.

Now even my farthest reaching ink can splat.

Beautiful
This game minus moray towers has the best maps for a shooter

 

[Timeaisis]

Oh man I'm super excited. GAF squad tonight, gents?

 

[backlot]

I wonder if two GAF squads will ever have to fight each other?

Looks like the perfect alley for a splatling.

 

[PadWarrior]

Will the gaf squads use a password? I want to play late tonight with you guys. May wear my power suit and splatling gun to be like the terminator lol

I think most of the time passwords won't be necessary, with it being a private room I imagine joining up would be a lot like it is now, except with no risk of randoms getting in.

we New York City now

I'm intensely jealous of all the fun y'all will be having once the update drops. By the time I return from vacation, I'll have lightyears of catching up to do.

Really really want to try out the gatling gun. It sounds like a sit-and-commit weapon that can pin down an area once it's set up. Run Speed Up will probably be a necessity, just to give it some mobility.

True

What is the best way to deal with dynamo rollers? I heard that the splat bomb is best.

Hopefully one of these two new weapons can deal with them.

;p

I like Moray Towers.

 

[tonyh24613]

I'll be able to play the game... 12 hours after the update.

At this point, most of my favorite weapons (and the Slosher!) are from the Custom brand, so that's my pick for fav weapons maker thanks for the analysis Ryechu!

Splat bombs are so irritating, getting stuck in enemy's ink is a guaranteed splat sentence too, I don't know what kind of weapon you're using, but everything that can distract their attention is good, the moment they use their fling shot trying to look for you, they're toast.
About Moray towers, they should add more elements to make it a little bit more brain friendly for the chargers.

 

[Violet_0]

is the update coming out in 10 hours, or the day afterwards?

 

[Nico_D]

I think I should have it tomorrow morning. Europe.

 

[Ocho]

Is Splatfest this weekend? If so, I guess tag mode will be disabled?

It's today, in 10 hours.

New to the game and changed to stick controls. I've been reading that this is a bad idea, but I can't figure out why.

the gyro allows for quicker precision in conjunction with the right stick

also there isn't any aim assist in this game so it's just you and the stick if you decide to go that way

It's all preference I use sticks and do well with them. Use whatever you are comfortable with

thanks, I suppose it will be time for me to jump back in and come to terms with the fact that I can't aim anymore

Playing one of the Jet Squelchers is the best way.

Ok... looks like I'll be staying up late tonight lol

 

[Sendou]

Too bad i can't take part tonight. Oh well Friday then. You guys have fun!

 

[Rebel Leader]

10pm


NOOOOO

 

[Xenoboy]

I just got the C+ rank today. I don't really like Bluefin Depot for Tower Control, although Mackerel is quite nice.

Is there going to be any rooms or something one can join when the update rolls in?

 

[Leatherface]

Not in online games against randoms unfortunately, squads are ranked only. It would have to be in private matches

Ugh. That sucks. I want to play as a team with my GF damn it! ...and not in the blood pressure rising "ranked" mode. :'(

I like the range blaster because the splat wall gives you protection while engaging them from a distance.

That floundering heights picture finally made me realize why they put those ugly bike helmets in. Looks just like a squid from behind.

 

[PadWarrior]

Ok... looks like I'll be staying up late tonight lol

I think a lot of people will be lol

 

[Geg]

Actually the I think the scan for the ika musume stuff says the update will hit at 10 AM on Thursday in Japan. For the US that would be 9 EST/6 PST.

 

[StAidan]

6PST would be perfect for me, I'll have time to get the update downloaded before my normal playtime.

I think you're right

 

[reggieandTFE]

I figured most of the guys on here would be A+. I'm only middling in the competitive modes and I've gotten 8 points twice away from vanilla A. A bad run last night knocked me down to B+ though.

The update might be available to download at that point, but they did mention the servers would be down for maintenance until 10EST/7PST.

lol i'm just an A- person myself. Every time I get to A the match making tells me to git gud scrub and throws me down to B+

 

[Timeaisis]

Nah man, lots of us are A- or B+. Personally, I got to A- and had a bad streak and now I'm back to B. Now I'm waiting on squads to do ranked again so I can pick my teammates.

 

[WALKMAN04]

A lot of us are, including myself. I also feel a lot of them would be if they played ranked more instead of turf wars, they definitely have the talent for it.

I don't think it'd be the majority of us. I'm about to head back down myself. Might drop to B+ soon, just so it won't be as stressful.

 

[Geg]

I'm A- too and could probably be A or even A+ if I played ranked more regularly but I'm too afraid of ranking back down to B+ again lol

 

[Blak_Status]

I'm a low A at the moment

 

[Jeff Vader]

I think most of us A-'s are afraid of that xD
