Splatfest is confirmation that Nintendo needs to get those friend lobbies (or a way to make your own team) going immediately.

I found a good Luna Blaster named "S." and went something like 18-1 playing on his team. I was surprised how much you can figure out about the way a person is playing after just a few matches with them. Knowing the routes they take during the opening, knowing how often they push forward, and whether they chase down leaks. I built the wall, and he flanked the enemy. I gave him Echolocator, he blasted people in the face. Game is so much more fun when you're organized.

I am finally a Cat King. Work is over, so it's now time to celebrate the holiday. Have a good 4th of July, GAF!

I thought the ink would glow more though. It's hardly noticeable.

 

[Robotguy]

I'm actually teamed up with a pretty decent guy right now.

 

[victreeb3l]

Splatfest is amazing

 

[weekev]

That feeling you get when you take out their entire team, push on to paint as much as possible, look at the map and see your entire team camped at your spawn point. SMH

I think at least 2/3 of players in the Splatfest chose team dog. Just watching a streamer and the amount of times he is facing other people who choose dogs is every other game. I had too many DC in the last two hours to continue playing. I don't think the network is holding up during the Splatfest. There was just a match where the entire opposition team disconnected on the stream.

I thought the same but it dawned on me that it is probably a frame rate concern.

 

[RagnarokX]

SO HAWT!! +34.0


Last night I had a a match on Urchin Underpass that was so one-sided that I spent the last few seconds inking "Hi" on one of the walls in the central area

 

[timetokill]

Since everyone else is doing it, image from last night before I went to bed:

 

[Anteo]

I just learned you cant splat people by rolling over in those fall through walks.
A dog tried that on me and I just shoot him to dead lol

 

[Crayolan]

Finally hit Cat Queen, so I'm done. Splatfest is fun, and I especially love the plaza, but being forced to play on Garbage Underpass and Ridley Dome kills it.

I don't get the ridley dome part but kelp dome is one of my favorite stages

 

[R.D.Blax]

Eternal Pop Girl forever, I did my part

 

[Violet_0]

I don't get the ridley dome part but kelp dome is one of my favorite stages

I guess that means Ridley-sized
you know, because Ridley is too big

 

[Crayolan]

Spoiler

TOO BIG

 

[Interceptor]

Three rock vs rock matches in a row. What's going on?

 

[Anteo]

Three rock vs rock matches in a row. What's going on?

not enough pop players, so youy get matched vs rock. you still get personal points but no score towards the team

 

[Inquisitive_Ghost]

I keep getting put on poor teams. I made Dog Queen, now I want Tower Control back.

 

[NotLiquid]

I'm curious whether the 3-map rotation will remain intact after the Splatfest.

 

[Interceptor]

I see. Thx. Just lost my first game...Damn bubblers.

 

[EulaCapra]

Just won my first outnumbered 3 vs. 4 match. 47% to 45%.

Felt amazing.

 

[ViviOggi]

Team Pop had two lvl 8s and a lvl 1... 80:10, someone's getting a refund

 

[Triforce141]

My whole team disconnected along with 1 enemy, just have to press on, and on, and on.

 

[Ozium]

started it up

got a level 3 person on my team

can't leave

 

[weekev]

Last Splatfest match for me. Hopefully get a longer stint next time

 

[trixx]

I think there's alot less cats than dogs in America. My brothers game started with just 3 cats on the team.

Lol Rock vs Rock not surprised.

 

[Inquisitive_Ghost]

I think there's alot less cats than dogs in America. My brothers game started with just 3 cats on the team.

That just means they had a disconnect.

But you're probably right; Dog v Dog matches are pretty common.

 

[phanphare]

damn, just faced a team of four by myself lol

still got 15.4% though

 

[Out_Of_Ammo]

At least he found cats. More then half of my matches were against other rockers, and the few I had against team pop usually were incomplete teams.

 

[trixx]

That just means they had a disconnect.

But you're probably right; Dog v Dog matches are pretty common.

No the matchmaking started a 3v4 game

 

[Inquisitive_Ghost]

No the matchmaking started a 3v4 game

@_@

Edit: Right after this I had a 4 v 1 match start.

 

[Naar]

This lag is killing me As in i get disconnected every other game

and i never lagged in game before splatfest like i am now. They should have made it global...there was no issues when it was global

 

[Needham]

No the matchmaking started a 3v4 game

I've seen this 3 or 4 times. Never seen it happen to team cat though.

 

[victreeb3l]

Lmao 91% to 5.3%

Lets go team cats!!!!

 

[Grakl]

Dare I say the lag is worse now than it ever was

 

[Azure J]

Finally hit Cat Queen, so I'm done. Splatfest is fun, and I especially love the plaza, but being forced to play on Garbage Underpass and Ridley Dome kills it.

LMAO. At least Kelp's Temple is good for making money.

 

[R.D.Blax]

Ok, that enough splatfest for today. Many Team rock scrub will fear the Eternal Pop Girl R.D.Blax for the day to come

 

[CoconutTank]

I'm getting full 4v4 games here all the time, if only you guys could hop into this room lol

 

[Violet_0]

Dare I say the lag is worse now than it ever was

for you guys, perhaps
for me, it's Tuesday

e: never mind, I'm now experiencing 10 second delays here lol

 

[Azure J]

What gear are you wearing/what are their perks?

 

[JohnTinker]

Got an error AS JUDD IS GIVING THE VICTORY SCREEN.

 

[Zero²]

I'm studying, but splatfest is all I can think about...
I need help hah

 

[Naar]

Got an error AS JUDD IS GIVING THE VICTORY SCREEN.

lol that happened to me a few times

 

[victreeb3l]

So does the winner depend on matches won or overall kills?

 

[NotLiquid]

Believe it or not I'm not actually having that easy of a time against Team Pop lmao

 

[Poltergust]

I just got a quadruple kill in the last 30 seconds when all the enemies stormed our base, then our 3-person team pushed back and managed to cover up enough ink in time for a 47%-44% victory. Scored 1535 points as well, the highest I've ever gotten!

I love you, Dynamo Roller. <3

 

[Mr. Sam]

That feeling when you carry your team hard, lose, look at their stats and wonder just what the fuck they were doing the entire game.

 

[Triforce141]

What gear are you wearing/what are their perks?

My usual shirt is a Zekko Red Check Shirt with the Ink Saver Main. I can't check the sub abilities since Splatfest is going on right now.

 

[BlueSilver]

The Wii U decided that I have no internet connection right now.

 

[Inquisitive_Ghost]

I feel so honoured when an opponent clearly targets me in particular with an Inkstrike.
