>>548801848lets be honest if they dont deserve art and no one else here does. you think because you talk and play with them they should get something? you wouldnt even know these people if you didnt come here.
If you had a bigger bed, you’d have more bedroom, but less bed room.

Even now, the evil seed of what you've done germinates within you.
Gonna show a new Raiders trailer during the Game Awards.

>>548953557Flat is not ridiculous.
>>548953871Um, my woomy isn't flat.
That's no woom...
>>548959229Your right that is a Tomwoom an even more sporty and playful type of woomy.
My woomy is no longer mentally ill.
>>548963680I wish veemos have mentally eel tentacle styles.
>>548965698That would make them too powerful.

>>549000142Saturday.
how is it?
>>549003112As a die-hard Metroid Prime fan that replays all three games every 1 or 2 years or so, my initial reaction is underwhelmingIt definitely feels exactly like a sequel to Metroid Prime 1-3 and has the same feel by the original developers. There are still just some overwhelmingly glaring issues, most notably the desert. It literally exists for padding, and there is no fast travel feature. It is empty, featureless, and if you feel like exploring one area but then need to backtrack, good luck you're wasting up to 10 minutes with that shit.Lightning Roud>dialogue is pretty cringe + poor voice acting>New Scan Visor ambience is annoying>Really lacking in enemy diversity>Annoying whining soundtrack when certain enemy type is on screen>The plot is essentially just 2 againOkay but>Would you still recommend it?Yes, definitely. It is sadly looking to be the least replayable but it is still worth the experience
>>548992598go to the bathroom woomy
>>549003583why would i pay 70 bucks for that when super metroid is better and free
Splatoon 3 has a worse metagame than fire emblem heros.
>>549004847
>>549004945zero mission is better than super and fusion
watching everything new turn to shit makes me feel like such a codgy old cootalso thanks again cloudflare
I'm a bad tendie, I have never played any Metroid or Kirby game (or DK until Bananza). Am I missing much? Holy fuck cloudflare needs to go
>>549003583Pass, I cannot fucking stand Marvel dialogue and npcs giving hints and "helping"
mmm
>>549005436you don't truly believe this
>>549005436>roll unit with a novel attached>65x4=0 damage vs 0=99 damage>somehow better than splatoon 3
>>549003112it feels exactly like a metroid prime game, which i thought wouldn't be the case.

>>549088784GGs!
Splatoon 1, now with Mouse Controls.
why did everyone move to playing kirby and metroid
>>549089107Because this game offers nothing new anymore.
>>549089224You haven't 10 starred all the weapons.
>>549089392>new
>>549089107Actually I'm playing Drova (on PC).

how dead is the multiplayer these days

>>549100608im top 500 x rank at 1700 power
>>549105858the season just started
>>549102616I think the logic behind it is they want to show Shiver is clingy and insecure.
>>549106764That is about the only thing that makes sense about it.
when is the orange turd going to drop dead already
>>549109131
>40 minutes to download the updatei never should have stopped playing
>>549089107i moved to Team Fortress 2 (the most fun you can have online)
>>549114583I keep closing the game after 5 minutes. I want new weapons.
>>549114583Based.
>>549114776remove the context of tf2 and it still fits the thread

it's so much worse knowing raiders probably won't save this place

Anyone down to splat a king at the hour?
I don't have a Switch 2 yet so I haven't been following the news, have they announced anything more about Splatoon Raiders since the reveal?
>>549273998nopeif they did it would be in the OP

>>549273864do you care if I'm rustyI haven't played in a month
>>549274081damnit.Oh well, When they announced it my Switch 2 position instantly became "If I buy one now I will regret it because they'll probably do a Splatoon Raiders-themed Switch 2 so I'll just wait for that" so I guess this just gives me more time to work through my PS games backlog

is the splat roller meta yet?
>>549287653It was for a brief moment, but then decav made an even easier weapon that does kind of the same thing.
>>549287783it's marginally harder but way more capable on splat3's big flat open mapsit has the prescense of dynamo but with better mobility than any roller, so as long as opponents don't abuse high ground against it it's a straight upgrade both main-wise and kit-wise

allowing chargers to store a charged shot was the worst thing to ever happen to splatoon
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1cLEHk28EC4qVQYE-LldnU7_HV6A8oeP_?usp=sharing
>>549328727should've been a gootuber exclusive gimmickit also inspired the most dishonest weapon in splatoon history
>>549330419ludo in salmon runcancer in rankedi hate the way the design philosophy has trended towards patching up every weapon's weak points as though every 1v1 should be an even match at every range
>>549328727nah, charge hold is the perfect balance between cool and impracticalnot only it's not a free action, wasting your uptime as you neither charge nor recover when holding and also have half a second of unsquid buffer, most of the time if you use it effectively it puts you into a worse and potentially even dangerous positionthe little extra range and removed temptation to do stupid stuff of scope is often more beneficial than charge hold for a proper anchor player, although generally the two are mostly balancedfunnily enough, squiffer, goob and flux don't even use charge hold that often, all of them have better ways to engage most of the time>>549330419it's very honest. it's just pure consistent power, at cost of deceptively bad uptime, inability to use subs and vulnerabilityit didn't really deserve velocity or range increases, but they aren't that critical, it is still rather easy to pin down if you know what you're doing
>>549332278>wasting your uptime as you neither charge nor recover when holdingok? they still gain significant mobility and positioning opportunity on a long-range one-shot kill, losing half a second of ink refill is a small price to pay for getting a kill
>>549333680let's put it like this: a charge hold shot effectively takes twice as long as a regular shot for splat charger. 1.75x for eliter, more for small chargers (which is why it's kinda shit on them). in a game where chargers already struggle to keep up, it's a high-price, high-risk, high-reward option that has to be set up 2 seconds before the opportunity even opens up. you could just shoot twice in that time. and most of the time getting a good angle with charge hold means you give up your perch and going either forward or down, both of which are detrimental for the charger (especially the latter- which might be why tri-stringer didn't get charge hold, unlike chargers it doesn't mind low ground so it would get a lot more effective use out of it, on top of its long charge time dampening the uptime cost of charge hold).
i want more third kits
>>549332278>>549335203ai bot takes that are always wrong.
>>549335203>in a game where chargers already struggle to keep upthis is the real problem, the rest of the game has been accelerated to allow non-chargers to keep pace with the sheer power and dominance and general lack of counterplay presented by a shot-storing charger existing basically anywhere on any map>has to be set up 2 seconds before the opportunity even opens upinvert your thinking - the case where you don't set it up 2 seconds early is the case where you set up a normal shot 1 second earlyit doesn't have a real opportunity cost, it's an extra option on top of the normal function of a chargeryou can poke your killshot more safely than you ever could without charge storing, you can fall back from enemy aggression and still have a fully-charged shot in your pocket to fire off once you're out of range of their attack, and you can let it fizzle instantly if you decide you can't stand ground during your fallbackit's a strict upgrade to the most oppressive weapon class in the entire series and the rest of the game plays faster than ever to "counter" it, which in practice means everything just snowballs harder off of minor victories, and this is all concurrent with the tickrate being DECREASED from splat1all because charger players got mad on the internet when they got flanked ten years ago
>>549332278>deceptively bad uptimelol. lmao even.
>>549333098sniffable woom
>>549332278>deceptively bad uptimeFuck are you talking about, Nautilus's only true downtime is literally being out of ink
the fact that chargers ignore squid roll armor, and therefore squid rolls just make you an easier target because you move in a slow, predictable arc, is criminal.
Alright show of floppers & tentacles who else did this today?
>>549338035you ruined my pb enjoy getting blocked
>>549336816the counterplay to chargers is to not get shot by them, pressure them with low-commitment tools and find ways to play faster around their soft control. you have to engage with most other weapons to prevent them from doing something, so you need active counterplay, but chargers don't do much aside from shooting people, so you just don't fight them unless you've built up an advantageous position first. chargers are not supposed to die either, they are so bad at a disadvantage that if pressured sufficiently they'll easily build up those 8 seconds of respawn downtime within their lifetime (and then still die to a particularly audacious 3-liner overextending to trade a rook for a queen). 3 has accelerated, sure, but chargers were always fundamentally slow, and charge hold shots are making them slower. if an opportunity to splat a high-value target presents itself, a charge hold might be worth it, but most of the time the consistency and safety of traditional slow-but-fast backlining outweigh the opportunity cost of charge hold. there's a good reason why scoped chargers were still overwhelmingly favoured when they had the little bit of extra paint and not just extra range, more paint lets them do more every shot, and chargers have real big trouble with doing so every little bit counts. charge hold is wasteful. it's an extra option, but it's way more niche than it appears on the surface. >>549338035>>549338254if it has charge in the tank, it's got impressive sustain because recharge on splatlings is kinda busted, but between the worst charge/fire ratio of all splatlings and no ink recovery with held charge, it's about as active as sspro. not terrible, it's no dynamo, but compared to other splatlings that thrive on their efficiency- unspectacular. >>549338919>trying to parry attacker-side damageshiggy diggyalso they don't ignore it, it works the same as armor did in 2, any damage over 100 gets spilled over onto you, up to 80 damage
Naut is honest.
>>549338035>I'm in this webm and I don't like it
>>549339942>don't get hit>charging and storing a shot takes longer than charging a shot, which makes chargers slower overall>just pressure them :^)
>>549339942they completely ignore it at full charge, killing you at 100 hp through it even with a 140 damage squiffer. the armor sound only happens on a partial charge. you can squid roll out from behind cover to account for the attacker-sided damage and will die 100% of the time to a charged shot.
>>549338035who's ohmu
>>549339942in terms of niche-ness, charge hold is less soldier rocket jump and more of a demo sticky jump. all three are tools that trade a resource for mobility, but the cost is very different. soldier's cost is balanced in a way that it's a staple tool in his kit, you can overdo it but you can and should use it repeatedly to get a jump on your opponents with easy to apply splash damage. compare to demo's jump, with a health penalty that puts him at a massive disadvantage, arming delay that prevents opportunistic usage and him being forced to give up every trap he's set up to use it (should he, for example, try to use it to escape), all for a brief stint of bombing with pipes that are harder to hit with and easy to escape the splash radius of. >>549340913yes. it's that easy. don't get hit and waste their uptime further. all you have to do to beat a charger is to do more useful work than a charger. >>549341027you do realise that it's not only roll's trajectory that is is predictable, but also its armor deactivation timing? if you don't hear armor sound, you got shot without armor. if they hit into your armor, you'll hear a sound of it shattering.
>arguing with the armchairfagyou guys never learn do you
>>549324464mmm, woobies
>>549341068you ohmuh dick
>>549341475nobody is predicting when it wears off literally (not figuratively) every single time. everyone and their mother knows the timing and never makes even one mistake in thousands of hours of gameplay? genuinely 100.00% of the time? even when deliberately trying to hit the armor in a pb, you automatically counter yourself and hit after the armor wears off?
>>549339942>they are so bad at a disadvantage that if pressured sufficiently they'll easily build up those 8 seconds of respawn downtime within their lifetime (and then still die to a particularly audacious 3-liner overextending to trade a rook for a queen)............... what
>>549341983again, the main problem is that you are trying to parry something with attacker-side detection, which will never work on the interwebs. it should never work in the first place, rolls are for escaping bombs. but even assuming perfect internet, rolling against a charger, or really anyone with agency (e.g. not wound up dynamo staring you down and not bloblobber shots creeping up on your position), will never work, because they will just shoot you when the armor is down, in many cases inadvertently as they aim for where you land as it's the easiest point of the arc to hit you at. never bet at something you are not in control of, even if it "might" work, treat every roll as "i am getting shot upon landing" and act accordingly. roll into a safe position, or shoot back, or what have you. >>549342598getting splatted gives up uptime and positioning. getting pressured gives up uptime and positioning. pressure them repeatedly, and they'll give up enough uptime and positioning that they might as well have died.
>>549343426literally hundreds and hundreds of times without one error? even when intentionally trying?
>>549343770>this doesn't work>yes, this shouldn't work>but it doesn't work in a different way from how it shouldn't work!just don't try to parry chargers, anon, it's that easyeven if it is bugged (it is not bugged, i got randomly hit into roll armor multiple times), it's not like it changes how you should approach the situatuion
Woomy big naturals.
>>549341475charge hold is more like giving sniper a double jump
>>549348194shut the fuck up
>>549346327nah, double jump is the opposite side from rocket jump, it's almost free for scout so he can just do it willy-nilly, the only downside of doublejumping for scout is signalling the opponent that you can't change your air velocity anymore and you've became as vulnerable as any other character after jumping once
>>549348546>you can't change your air velocity Bro? Your airstrafe? Your fanboost?
>>549348546>it's almost free for scout so he can just do it willy-nilly, the only downside of doublejumping for scout is signalling the opponent that you [are doing some particular movement]this is exactly what charge storing doesalso airstrafing exists lmao
>>549348702abruptlyairstrafing is gradual (and universal)
>2 minute queue for turf wardead game
>>549349028Wave 2 3rd kits will save the game.
>>549348879go up the reply chain and readif you don't wanna read, i'll summarize- splatoon has time as one of its most valuable resources, and charge holding wastes a lot of time, so it's not a free action in the slightesttf2 isn't as time-dependent, so the high-commitment mobility tools like rocket jumping mainly cost health instead of time, but they are comparable in their cost, both not at all comparable to actually free double jump
>>549349297tf2 is exactly as uptime-dependent, that's how games with respawns, yknow... workand again, charge holding doesn't "waste time" because it's an option you can decide to use when it's advantageous and decide not to use when it's not advantageousit doesn't "waste time" any more than throwing a sub "wastes ink", the possibility of doing either when it's not advantageous is completely beside the point
>>549349780>it's an option you can decide to use when it's advantageous and decide not to use when it's not advantageousyepthe ratio between when it's advantageous to when it's not for charge hold is skewed pretty far towards being mostly not advantageous, close to sticky jumps, less than rocket jump and way less than double jumpdouble jump is not always advantageous but its ratio is so good that it's rare for a double jump to put you at an unquestionable disadvantage, whereas charge hold rarely even breaks even, it's easy to go slightly to moderately minus without even noticing it. nevermind the full-blown blunder states where you would charge hold straight into getting bodied (or rather, won't, because that just means "don't hold" to any charger player).

>>549424751The game is making fun of me.
>>549425049rollers are kinda sorta not really videogame shotgun archetype at best, but there really aren't alternatives to them in other games, they are very splatoon-specific. you want shotguns, brellas are actual literal shotguns. if you want a big satisfying one, go tent, it's also the best one.
>>549425880i've been maining the splat roller since 1, rollers are shotguns to mei guess i have to grit my teeth and use a fucking brella then, but it's just not the same... there's something about the swing of a roller that just feels right
>>549426762yeah, i got you. i hate this powercreep too.
>>549419917I just like the basic roller. Carbon is fast and weak, Dynamo is strong and slow, I don't know what's up with Flingza & Big Swig though.
>>549434897>FlingzaTakes some getting use to but has a good range and its fun>Big SwingCarbon but WIIIDDEE and very long rangeThanks to Nintendo ability to code anything if your up high it can send ink a greater distance than Jet
>>549438619haha what are they saying
>>549434897carbon is a point blank instakill machine, with a surprisingly high skill ceiling with verts and bursts that lets it have surprisingly long reach (don't use any carbon without burst bomb). it's terrible on paper but you can do magic with it. splat is baisic aggro, just throw yourself at the opponent and hope for the best. d-dong is pure intimidation, small weapons can't approach it safely.swig is slower than carbon but it paints like a motherfucker and has surprisingly long reach.flingza is splat but more defensive, horizontals are identical, vert is slower but has more paint and reach so it can keep people away.
>>549438874They aren't saying anything.

im still afraid raiders is going to have dumb survival crafting stuff tacked on because nintendo is consistently like 5 years behind on general gaming trends
>>549541524I fully expect minecraft shit, aren't these the same devs as ACNH?
>>549541524Remove the survival and just have a crafting mechanic at the base of operations. Or we could just have a skill squid like in Return of the Mammalians.
>>549542042i'm very curious as to how that fan weapon will work
I honestly think raiders is going to be a blunder only because they're seemingly pouring a ton of development effort into a single-player only experience and they have no evidence that something like that will even sell. Maybe they're planning to reuse a bunch of it for splatoon 4 so it's not actually costing that much, but I don't know.
>>549540379are you coming back?

>>549541524i'm not afraid they are going to tack on dumb survival crafting because that's guranteed, it's literally the entire premise of the game they've shown so fari am afraid that they will utterly fail to integrate that survival crafting game with splatoon's inherent mechanics and just make a generic title that could've had any other franchise and character slapped onto it, from mario to kirby to drag x drive dudes, and just happened to become splatoon-flavoured in the lottery
