Splatoon |OT4| You're a detriment to your squad
- Thread starter NotLiquid
- Start date
Every match is ending up this way for me. You absolutely MUST get the lead on that stage.

Is anyone having the issue where Splatoon disconnects, gives you "You do not have an internet connection" despite having internet, and then saying "Unable to find wireless connection" when you go back into the lobby, until you restart the Wii U?
Edit: FINALLY, after constant disconnects in every non private lobby this whole week so far, I finally get 1 game finished.

Yeah, saltspray needs an update to block off the upper area.
That said, my friend and I did do quite well there tonight in double squads. People charge the rainmaker too much in the beginning. Makes it really easy to have one person ink up the lower area, one person go up the catwalks and kill the other team after they get the rainmaker. Then it's basically a straight shot to the goal.

Nothing bad about that strategy. Most of the Aerospray hate we talk about are just jokes. But yeah, that's a solid strategy overall. One thing I have to point out is that you don't have access to the roller when starting the game for the first time. You gotta level up to level 3. The Aerospray is unlocked at level 13 AND you have to get the sunken scroll from one of the bosses of singleplayer mode.
For the fastest level ups, use the Aerospray, Splattershot Jr, or the Inkbrush. These are generally the higher scoring weapons. Still, don't limit yourself to only those weapons all of the time. There are a lot of weapons to choose from in this game.

Sometimes there are days when, rather than playing sniper to control areas, you just want to ninja around and splat people square in their faces. Today is one of those days.
As I play with the Splattershot Pro and its long range, lol.

Get the Rainmaker to 25 in the opening.
Hold them back until they push it to 5 with 1:30 left to go.
Overtime, we all push in at once. We kill three of their team at once. There is a straight shot to the goal. We've totally won.
GAME!
What
Realize that ball holder decided to hang back at tge 25 point for no reason and shoot blasts for way too long and the last member of their team just walked right up to them.
Results come in and you realize that they gave their team the only A+ and yours the only two A-s.

ggs thanks for joining, though you were the one getting splatted when I ran into you
That's Rollers that don't need aiming, Nico.
Unless you are at the optimal max impact range, you need to hit directly to do any damage.

They still need to judge their distance if they're going for blast area kills.
It does take a bit of aiming. I'd say pick one up if you think it's easy, it may get you a new rank.

They get close so easy just by jumping around. And I. Can't. Hit. Them.
Sometimes I remember back up though but they raise my blood pressure so quickly and that's when the flow to my brains stops.

Try inking the area under them or go against Heng and his Blaster for practice.
Nico_D

Yeah. Maybe this is the "every weapon they got is OP" effect.
Maybe it would suit me since my aim seems to be shit once again.
Triforce141
Member
The only thing I get pissed off atm, is this bad connection I have, other than that, better for the weapon to be OP than it to be useless.
Hell, I complained about the Tentatek Splattershot since every loss in rank had at least 1 enemy using it, then I fell into peer pressure, and now it's one of my mains for ranked.
Why didn't I think of doing that before?

Great tip!
Probably the best way to deal with them. Most weapons can keep them at bay, just keep inking the ground near them and they won't be able to do anything.
As much as I hate them they do require good aim.
Not true.That's Rollers that don't need aiming, Nico.
the makes me think im missing a joke. Does he use a roller?

So many deaths

GGs. Aside from showing off a bit too much laser sight (which is scary in its own way), you were doing really good. I couldn't get close at all whenever it was bluefin.
oh its less than halved. Also, you get less and less points the higher you go up S. You win more than you lose in equal matchups in S 30 (+5/-4), and You gain +3/-6 in like S 75+.

The GAF private room rules sometimes force no sub/special rules, so it's purely sniping. Great tense games. I went Squifer in that room once lol.
Nothing stops this rain.

Squiffer in a mostly Splatterscope room was great though. Really fun stuff and you can say that you still got the better of them even while handicapped. =D

Time to quit for tonight, or the rest of the week for that matter. When the game kicks you out of every other match, or struggle to get 50 xp after 4 hours, time to stop.
Tonight's impromptu Turf War room, Hide & Seek and general stream shenanigans were great guys.
See everyone later for Flounder hype!
Also, I definitely felt vindicated for that jump shot highlight I was on the receiving end of a few times beating you to the draw during the Charger-pocalypse.

The one thing I hate about Rainmaker in Saltspray, is that the anybody can camp the rainmaker in the back part of the map for some time. It gets really annoying when it happens constantly.
