Big ups to all everyone we played big run with this weekend. That shit was crazy fun, even if it got ungodly levels of fucked as we hit HLM. And I got like 16 golds or some shit, that was awesome. Probably the most golds I've ever gotten outside of the splatlands bowl, plus like 200 or something more big shots to my count. Shame these are only once every three months.

>>721321491
I can't believe you motherfuckers even turned the game back on after it ended, and onto the boat of all places. How many hours did you put into it?

them

Oh, I thought you were being cheeky. Was he going after them? From what I saw, he wasn't too gung-ho about it. If you were blocking, I appreciate the effort. Dude probably doesn't hang around these threads no more so it's not like he's going to know that I'm trying to get as many as I can. And even with all the anons who didn't, my number went up substantially so no big deal.

yeah I couldn't get any kills with him around so when I had 9,500 kills I unblocked him he's too good I couldn't keep up
>>
>>721325151
Learning to steal kills was part of the fun
>>
hot take: splatoon 4 should remove special charge up, and replace its functionality with several abilities with conditional additional special (like tenacity, except not entirely dogshit)
that way getting 220p special will actually hurt weapons, as it can't be patched with another main of scu, and it generally reduces special output (good for the game)
>>

Well damn. It's not like anyone's obligated to leave them to me, but he's long since gotten his so he could at least do so. Or maybe he just gets his kicks from doing it. Most I know about the guy is that he's ungodly and verifiably insane at the game.

It'd be one thing if they preferred pvp, but actively disliking salmon run? It's so fucking good, they had to give it a bunch of updates in 3 for how popular it was.

>>721325692
I wanna call him a dick for it, but there's a part of me that has to respect having the gall to be so unrepentant despite the fact he got the goddamn gold grizz badge. Grand total of probably 20 people have that thing.

loved Splatoon 1, liked Splatoon 2, thought 3 sucked dick.

I was happy learning the game along with everyone during 1, but once people started hacking and getting perfect gear, shit got annoying. I wanted to get more into it for Splatoon 2 but I feel like it being stuck on Switch made it such a problem, I never had friends to play it as a team consistently, and those that did only played it casual when I really wanted ppl who wanted to get better at it. Overall I gave up and let the flame die out.

Splatoon 3 felt like such shit. Drip feed content, battle pass shit, Splatfests being boring as hell (3 games where Splatfests were JUST turf wars is terrible) and the weapons were so meh

I REALLY wish I loved Splatoon. I REALLY wish I couldve immersed myself completely into it because I like the inklings, I like the gameplay, but I HATE that Splatfests were just turf wars, and I HATE that I couldnt play with my friends often because they either took it too casually (so we always lost) or just wanted to do Salmon Runs. The only two highlights Octo Expansion, and playing Final Fest during Splat 2 with my bf at the time
>>
>>721327336
>that's why I started inking the walls with the cannons during the last ten seconds of a cohock wave
Yeah, I noticed you started doing that too. I figured I may as well start doing it once a wave's about to end if we're already well past the quota and I can get some easy wall inkage done. Better than trying to do it with a fucking rapid blaster or whatever.
>>
>>721327743
no point in killing cohocks when the wave is about to end might as well save time and ink the walls
>>
>>721327959
Yup, that's pretty much how I see it as well. One could argue it's tryharding, I just see it as being efficient.
>>
>>721328167

Yes, very much so! Splatoon is a wonderful game and I have played it since the Global Test fire on Wii U.

The Big Run was very fun this weekend, Ruins is definitely one of the best Big Run stages.
>>
>>721313547
Love it but the multiplayer gets me buttmad like nothing else. I really liked the singleplayer stuff so I'm excited for Raiders.
>>
>>721327528
>loved Splatoon 1, liked Splatoon 2, thought 3 sucked dick.
For me its the shift away from slower, tactical gameplay. Used to strategise and plan, im sure even on a casual level we all strategically picked our inkstrikes based on the map positions, and used killer wail to flush people out of the shipping map then splat them etc
Each game has reduced the number of inkable walls and increased the game speed. This reduces tactical options in the maps and the viable weapons

S3 is just straight up 100% autism simulator, and they didnt even rebalance the slow weapons around it. I can play it, im pretty fucking good at it even, but im having much less fun than ever. Feels like meta is way more important than ever, and the "skill check" is usually just aim speed / snapping rather than, say in S1 where it was so slow, positioning knowledge, range knowledge, map awareness etc.

But then like you said, people using outside tools to figure out seeds for their gear is gay, we need S4 to come out before the Sw2 is hacked and it happens again.

Splatoon 1 showed massive promise, I feel like 2 to a lesser extent and 3 definately squandered it and played safe, too much missed potential because they refuse to try something bigger and bolder. You mentioned splatfests only being turf war, but im thinking its nuts we only just got something like big run, and even then it doesnt go that far, eggstrawork is lame. Additionally splatfests / turf war... why can we not get those single player objects like we got in some of the later shifty stations? we got inklines, why not cannons and ramps?

they added squid surge but took out all the fucking walls, then on the maps with tall buildings, they made them smaller. They didnt bring back moray towers re-worked into a good map that uses surge or rails, has hagglefish canopies to counter snipers etc... why? becuase they only ever play it safe now

the reason: japanese playerbase.

Fuck off it's not. Only the shitters that complained about individuals playing in private rooms would spend the next hour naming them all in threads. Most of the time it turned out to be people playing with guys on their friends list and not wanting the pool to join because for some reason they're both on the same announce button.

Inlings exist because of the combined thoughts of the last humans, some psychic LCD crystals and hungry cephalopods. They've taken on the very form that humans dreamed of and so should be considered perfection.

Also fuck your slop, there's plenty of actual art to enjoy without needing to gen things.

If you lived your life avoiding stuff because X company owns it or Y individual is involved then you're simply going to make yourself miserable.
Whatever you do daily if you do or don't buy something has such a small impact that the only person it ends up mattering to is you.
Unless you're part of some bigger collective force or are rich/powerful enough to do something about it personally, just buy what would make you happy and enjoy what time you have.

>they added squid surge but took out all the fucking walls
This one pisses me off the most
I had multiple situations in splat1 where i inked the wall behind a cover to climb it a bit to get the drop on whoever would try to rush me down
You'd think the idea of doing that with the dodge roll off a wall would be so cool the map makers would put walls so you could do it to feel cool
>>
>>721325232
Splatoon's design can be a bit awkward because of how covering the battefield in your ink can end up helping the other team have an easy time charging their own specials up. Sure if its turf war your goal in the end is to do precisely that but because only the very end matters you can find yourself in this situation where you want to refrain from playing aggressively too early only to feed the other team easy ults for when it actually matters.

The game would benefit if covering the battlefield could only ever help you but nintendo obviously want some form of catch up mechanics to be in the game.
