>>553283181it's a balancedo you value your performance when you are doing your best, or when you are doing your worst? if former, pick a special you can use effectively from your usual backline spot. if latter, lock yourself for 5 seconds into kraken's melee range and effectively die for the rest of your team for the cost of "quick respawn"

>>553283802two of these are supposed to take a bite out of your already limited uptime (even if ngmi decided that booyah should not have downsides later down the line), and one of these is definitively not a panic button and if you get spooked by inkjet you are probably doing something wrong

>>553287528they hit their flar treshold
How many retards here unironically think Splatoon would be better off without idols
>>553287528Wins are easy against turfbabs more news at 11.
Splatoon 4 should only have 1 idol.
splatoon 4 should have so many idols that there are idol wars
idols for splat 4
>>553288236we need idolsjust don't shove them into everything
>>553288236I mean in 1 they made sense.2, octo expansion really needed to put in the work and they still felt shoehorned.3 felt like they added them because "that's just what you do" and put no work in, and then reversed all the characterization and goodwill from OE in SO.
>>553288531what does this even mean
>>553281476listening to XO_willow helps my performance for some reason. the music is kinda shit but if it works i'm not stopping
>>553288604>>553288531Squid Sisters were fine in the first game since they only appeared in dialogue. The second game was fine for them too since they weren't active idols but OTH shouldn't have had their story locked behind DLC. Deep Cut shouldn't have been in Alterna.
>>553288906no, the squid sisters shouldn't have been in alterna
>>553274839And nothing of value was lost
>>553288906anon did you ever complete splat1's singleplayerbut yes, splat1 had a pretty decent balance of idol involvement
>>553289208dead woomies...
>What colors should we pick for our winter event?>How about Blue, Piss, and Semen
>>553289318You have a problem if bodily fluids is all you can think about when it comes to colors.
>>553289268I only remember seeing Capn Cuttlefish and he's not an idol or part of the squid sisters.
How is 3's DLC? I just came back to the game after not playing for awhile
>>553289318it's just a mellow alt to deep cut's regular blue, yellow and grey
>>553289483it's short but sweet
>>553289318blue... disgusting......
>>553289483
>>553289454actually yes, you are right, i misremember it. my bad. it's even better than i thought.
>>553289678>trusting japs
>>553289483it lets you stare at OTH all you want so i would pay all my money if i needed too for it
>>553289483Fun for a while but then gets boring and every run feels the same with no real challenge.

New themes any day now.
>>553160227
>>553293142What's even the point of a themeI don't spend more than a few seconds on the menu before I select a game
>>553293348
>>553291285The matchmaking is the root of all this shit. It sucks when you can tell what team is going to win in the first 30 seconds of a match.
god turf war is such a dogshit mode if you're in the upper 50% of skill rating
>>553293560the matchmaking is the exact same system as 2
>>553293560at least 2 had team powers in X so you could anticipate when the back end decides you're getting fucked.
>>553292753keep playing...
>>553293601Here's how to fix turf war or make a pro turf war mode>timer reduced to 1:0>the first 10 seconds are spent in an overhead view of the map where each person can drop 3 jumbo sized burst bombs where you want. if all 12 bombs on a team are used it should cover about 45% of the map in their color>after the 10 seconds are up or you used all the bombs whichever comes first, you super jump to the last place your bomb landed or if you didn't use a bomb you spawn normally.>turf war continues as is
>>553294158Nah. Most of the issue with turf war is the maps are so fucking tiny that nothing matters other than the last 30 seconds of the game. You can completely dominate the other team the whole match but if you get wiped in the last 30 seconds, gg you lose because the enemy team can cover enough turf to win in just ~20 seconds.I don't see how your idea is supposed to fix this.
>>553293608No it isn't. I never went on giant loss streaks in 2 like i regularly do in 3. The number of losses I suffer in rank would result in multiple rank losses in 2.
>>553293142That's not even the worst example.
>>553280295when shiver tells me to jump i ask how high
Don't forget rigged placements!
>>553294429It fixes it by removing the 2 minute bloat precisely because no one wants wants to wait for the last 30 seconds.>10 seconds for the burst bomb thing>20 seconds to get into position>30 seconds frantically panicking and try to win.
>>553294559i didn't even know that was a screen
>>553289483I 100%'d it in one weekend, but I had fun.It is replayable for a while if you care about challenging yourself with stuff like no-hack or single color runs. It has excellent music, a bit mediocre plot during playthrough which then turns into one of the best final scenes (NOT boss fights, mind you, but the fight itself is all right).Plus you unlock a bunch of PVP gear and alt weapon skins that some people like to seethe about.Worth the $20 IMO, with the S1 and S2 plazas as a bonus.
hold on X
>do a passive aggressive booyah because my teammates suck dick and we lose the lead at the end>we actually won
>>553294158splatfest pro should just be splat zones instead of turf warezpz
My power might cut out so there's a chance that the PB will be short or it might not happen at all. Everything should be fine next week.
>>553295060oh lobby is full
>>553295087what's going on with your power?
>>553295087nigga I am not joining that shit
>>553295087nigga I am joining that shit
>>553292753The really good players started with the first game's launch. If this is your first game then don't sweat it and take it at your own pace.
>>553295241bye bye splatfest tourist
>>553294793What is this showing? And why does order of W vs L matter?
>>553292753The matchmaking in splatoon 3 is fucked because engagement-optimized. No matter how good you are, you will be put on a team full of shitters so that your win rate drops.
>>553295538>le engagement based matchmakingstop coming up with excuses.
>>553295194Power company does it sometimes ranging from a few hours to days at a time. This time last year they shut it off 4 days every other week and everyone was pretty annoyed.
>>553295538I don't understand why companies had to complicate this shit so much. Just put random people together in a lobby. It worked fine for years.
>>553295874It's the truth
>>553295419It's how many X rank points you start with after you play your first five placement games.Yes, Winning four times in a row with one loss at the end gives most points than one loss four wins in a row.Why? Who knows.
>>553295874Yeah, totally balanced, skill-based matchmaking
>>553296964stopcomingupwith excuses
i was there in 2015i walked splat tim out on stagewho the fuck are you
>>553297020The Japanese can see through the bullshit too
>>553296964Actually there is an explanation for this, your rank up matches take place in regular S+ matches. You're not playing against other S ranked players. I dunno if they put an S ranked player on the enemy team (probably not though). And considering the volatility of S+ rank, ranking up to S+ is much more luck than skill.
>>553296003because engagement-optimized matchmaking was shown to increase play timethat's itit's just soulless CEOs optimizing player retention even if it means stupid bullshit systems that force you towards 50% win rate
>40/10 WL ratio currentlyidk man, might be a skill issue
>>553297271Those were not rank-ups though. And from experience, almost all my S+ rank-up series were no different from regular S series. Either totally crushed 0-3, or a walk in the park 3-0.
>>553296964yeah matchmaking is abysmal dogshit in this game I don't know why its so bad. There's either an algorithm forcing 50/50 W/L rates or there's something shoving retards and timmies on your team to see how hard you can "carry" with weighted comps.
>>553297461>turf
>>553297573>turf doesn't count because it doesn't fit my narrative
>>553297461What team?
>>553297684turf doesn't count because it's a shitty game mode where only the last 30 seconds matter, tardo
>>553297684turf doesn't count because it's a shitty game mode where only the last 30 seconds matter, and the matchmaking is much more lax
>so mad he replied twice
>when my skill goes up my winrate should also go up because i should be matched against people who are worse than me
>y-you madconcession accepted
>>553297461I'm at 12 losses in a row....i need a good reason not to blow my head off
