what is everyones thoughts on the flingza
>>566536829legitimately worse than dynamo now
>>566537013i havent really been on splatoon much for about 2 years, only got back on it a month ago, but i rarely see flingzas anymore. is it because they ruined tentas ?
Rawcket Lawn chair
>>566536749A random salmon run test map it's fairly small but have like a dozen baskets, it's pretty maze-y>>566535058I'm wondering this too, as far as I'm aware the anon may be wrong in the need of the patch as it should work without if it's installed properly. The methord works but isn't stable and not as complete. I think prod repack would be unpacking the testfire, replacing everything with the march build, and repack it into a proper somehow, I'm trying to understand it too.
>>566537523woomy in a vroomy with a kaboomy

>>566564614open 3/4 if anyone else wants in, just started a match
>>566564771ill join
>I play luna>matchmaking always puts 2 or more long range weapons on enemy team>I don't play luna>matchmaking puts only short/mid range weapons on my team and luna on the enemy team

>>566564467Not like he could've done shit at that point. Hydra takes too long to charge.
>>566565059I've seen hydras charge for like half a second and instagib me
>>566564614damn i was late af lmao
I am so good at this gameand now I'm dead
>>566565059hydra has a usable kill charge in like 20 framesthey just all forget that you can just not charge fullysplat4 should make weapon tech trees structured in a way that promotes learning, people really shouldn't touch hydra without getting good with heavy first
>>566566219are you stupid you're using a bathtub just scoop the water out
There are people who defend rainmaker as a game mode.
>>566567428rainmaker isn't bad but it's just a worse tower control that allows for 30 second matches and quick steals
>>566567428skill issue
>>566567428rainmaker is a fantastic mode when it's played right. a tense match of defensive fishdunk is peak splatoon. seven timmies putzing the fish and you having to babysit all of them at once sucks.
>>566567720tc and rm are very differentrm allows for buildup of resources without necessarily pushing the objective, tc is deliberately slow to make you build them up as you gothere's a reason why only tc gives extra special charge to the pushing team and not to the defending one like every other mode
>>566568029>tc is deliberately slow to make you build them up as you goYeah, and I like that. You can't just zip the tower from one side of the map to the other in a few seconds, you have to actually push it along the track. That and you don't have the all too common scenario of people being scared/reluctant to carry the rainmaker
brb bathroom
>>566567428You think that's bad when there are TC defenders?
>>566567792Fuck no, optimal RM goes like this:>cheese a lead with a special>stall for 4 minutes
>>566568298TC is fundamentally good. The specials are the problem.
>>566568290okay actually gotta do a chore brb play a game
>>566568256>You can't just zip the tower from one side of the map to the other in a few secondsif your opponents aren't shitters, you can't do that with the fish eitherif the opponents are shitters, they deserve the spanking, just win and go on to seek better opponents
>>566568497You have to leave, we can't start if you're not ready.
>>566568428>cheese a lead with a special>>566568437>The specials are the problem.two posts about different things but ultimately coming to the same conclusion about the game as a wholeall modes are goodbut they are all ruined by specialsbecause the entire game is ruined by specials
>>566568695Pretty much, yeah. Specials have gotten so much power creep that most of them are "I win" buttons and I hate it.I'd love to have a "no specials" game mode
>>566567428I like it a lot. It's fun.https://i.4cdn.org/wsg/1778463825591001.webm
>>566568789they should've made a challenge like that, but i'm pretty sure they are too scared that people will actually like it
>>566568437lolTC has been dogshit in all 3 games and it's not just because of specials
>>566568695Neither were good in previous games either.
There isn't a single good Tower Control map in the history of the series.
>>566568695TC was fine prior to 3. >>566568971Wrong.
>>566568437tc is unplayable without the same specials that make it so miserable to play
>>566569131it's not exclusive to 3it got even worse in it because the power level has entered orbit, but all three games have a problem with specials
>>566569231Name 5 good TC layouts each from 1 and 2.
>>566569228ugly ass art
TC is dogshit because blasters existremove blaster
>>566569491it is true though
>>566569371Underpass post patchSaltsprayMoray 1Moray 2Piranha Pit 1Triggerfish 1Bluefin Depot
>>566569546>remove blasteryou are supposed to do that yourself
>>566569709Five each.This is seven, and only one is from 2. Read, squigga, read.Saltspray TC was so fucking bad it got banned from public rotation. Try again.
well that took much longer than it should've. sorry about that>>566568632>didnt leavefuuuuuuuck my bad
>>566570081saltspray tc wasn't bad, actually, nowhere near as sinful as saltspray and blackbelly rainmaker. it was unbalanced because devs forgot that all woomies are right-handed, but past that, it was a very competent tc layout.
>>566570081Saltspray TC is good but it was better prepatch.Kelp 2StarReefSnapperBlackbelly 1
any tower path that goes over water is automatically dogshit
>>566570359GGs, I hate Mahi RM so much it's unreal.
>>566568789>Specials have gotten so much power creep that most of them are "I win" buttonsExcept when I use them.
>>566571051this>enemy uses hammer, it's an indestructible wall of death that makes them totally invincible from the front>I use hammer, every weapon in the game can shoot right through it and instakill me
>>566571523stop playing bloblobber
Tower paths over water are a true test of skill.
>>566572183bloblobber doesn't have hammer you silly billy
>>566572317I still don't understand what the "DANGER!" on the scoreboard is supposed to mean
>>566572652it's the only weapon in the game with both enough range to shoot under the hammer yet not enough shot velocity to clear it
>>566572887why did he do it?
>>566572718It was just a holdover from turf and it means "SQUIGGA UR LOSIN"
>>566572718Opponents making progress.
>>566573035
Just had the terrifying thought that Versus06 might've been scrapped because of the silent pauses in the song, offering competitive advantage and making it easier to hear sharkers.
>>566572968neat triviaBut I've played a bunch of different shooters and it's the same shit every time; enemy hammers are invincible to everything but my hammer is made of paper apparently
>>566574276Meanwhile I'd be very confused about nintendo caring that deeply about "competitive advantages" around music volume, when the game as a whole is pretty fucking un-competitive (15 tick p2p with shit matchmaking and i-win-button specials)
>>566574550"Nintendo can't balance a multiplayer shooter" is not a new concept, unfortunately.I can't really think of any other reason the song was scrapped other than this."It doesn't fit" doesn't seem like a valid explanation either because there are several Splat2 songs that don't really feel like battle music.
>>566574458shoot their feet, the hammer hitbox moves up and downyou should be doing it anyway, makes your spread marginally betteror just use nautilus lol

>>566576382Imagine sleeping on his soft tummy..........
>>566576528And hearing his breath, feeling his belly as he inhales
>>566574458

Threesome
>>566577981do notBig Shot is NOT for lewds
>>566578057I disagree
I got a switch 2 so I figured I would play Splatoon again to see if I noticed a difference. Ran a few salmon runs, and I'm sorry. I'm so washed and dropping rank.
>>566578694Freelancers are all lobotomites now.
>>566578818I might be able to blame the randoms I got, but surely 6 matches played where I never got past wave 2 (if even that) can be attributed to me at least a little. I'm the lobotomite team mate now anon.
>pilot build ost got taken down by nintendofaggots
slowly climbing back up, but part of me feels like if i went to 500xp it'd at least be funny meme bad, now it's just bad bad

>>566583272i saved it, nintendo are still faggots
I never understood why Japanese gamedevs are so protective of their development process (in the form of debugging tools, development tools, engines used, beta versions of things, etc), compared to western studios (ie the rockstar leaks and them going "eh who cares")Personally always find that kinda thing fascinating because it shows a little look into how it was actually made, that it was made by people doing just normal development work and all the hoops they jumped through to put that passion in. Is also why I leave it in in my stuff. Unless it gives an in game advantage of course but beyond that, why care?
>>566583904the pokemon rape story is probably why they don't like stuff getting out
>>566583352reup
>>566583904read japanese laws
>>566587507don't care I'm not japanese
>make sex>never follow up on sex
>>566604039>barely even use sexI genuinely wonder why they even bothered making fuzzy takos
>>566604141tradition, Raiders will have Salty Takos
It's Laura Yokozawa's birthday
>>566605668cute
>>566604141Honestly i think the plan was to use fuzzy takos in the crater and then switch out for a new enemy type in alterna proper. Probably machines. But something shifted and they just kept octarians the enemies the entire time.
>>566615293gas all footniggers
>>566618364You lost

so why is kold stealing from snakehand now? is it because he's jealous hes popular and well liked where people play with him when he does open lobbies meanwhile everyone hates kold so much they quit pbs?
>>566622309snakehand is awful anyway Nigga can't aim
Stop giving attention to it
snakehands shoved me in his locker bc i played bad
>>566622849snakehands would destroy kold in a 1v1, he destroys him in pbs anyways judging from all the bitchposts kold makes kek
>>566623089Snakehand's woomy kissed my weyyos forehead for trying his best.
>>566623089snakehands invited me to play open and then didnt say ggs when we were done playing and also didnt draw my woomy
snakehands played the game with me and I had a lot of fun
snakehands clipped me squidbagging yebs and weys and I got cancelled.
does this person listen to kpop
>>566618703Not a foot fag, but i now kinda want to see art of a squid balancing stuff on their square toes. Not sure how to frame the scene.

bad woomies are good woomies
>>566648069A game without flops is horrifying.
>>566659450the price we paid for asking for better veemstyles for so long... the flops... they have...
>>566659450Kinda hard to keep optimal flopper floppiness in such inhospitable conditions.

THE GREAT ZAPFISH HAS BEEN STOLEN
>>566674407carbon roller should have its hitboxes slashed to become a technical weapon againbut it can't because 3's powercreep ensures that even the most capable technical weapons get left behind in favour of easier stuff that's just as capable, so they either don't touch them or make them braindead>>566674349clearing trash is by far the biggest non-universal ammo sink in the modeand shooters not only can't get extra value out out of their shots, they are also some of the only weapons in the mode that did not get ink efficiency buffs (or any buffs, really)even rapids and inkbrush, some of the weakest inflators, positively MOG .52's capacity for trash clearance because they only need to hit two fish at once to break even on both speed and efficiency (they hit more than two fish at once), and their range and mobility respectively let them get to fat targets quicker and safer to compensate for shooters' raw dps advantagethe only shooter-likes worth shit are daps (not sploosh because daps are only okay-ish against trash when rolled into high fire rate mode and sploosh can't roll so it's always 15f per chum, barely any better than baisic shooters) and non-standard splatlings (bap, hydra and edit, everything else is dapples with charge time so worse dapples), and daps are still subpar compared to something like a blasterthe dps on baisic shooters isn't even that much stronger than on the good weapons, if you really want things to see fat fucks get deleted from being looked at, there are single-target dps monsters that are just as inept at handling trash but melt through meat, like .52's own big brotherand utility isn't that good either, 2-liners are survivable and have decent paint but both of these can be found in both better weapons or/and in more extreme capacitiesshooters are objectively the weakest class in sammin, some shooters are even worse (lol nova) but .52 is not much better
what if nova's gimmick was that shots have very mild homingslow them back to standard speed and don't change damage, just make it weak but very consistent
>>566707414how could you possibly imagine that'd be a good idea with the latency between players
>>566707414It really needs anything. It's so plain it feels like it came two games late.
>>566709634it would've been shit in splat1 too because it's pretty much a straight downgrade from dual squelcher and l3and that's before we consider that it doesn't have fucking kits
>>566710179Annaki sorta did for the month that inkjet was on top.
>>566710432inkjet has been a second rate trizooka throught splat3's entire lifespan, even in its fotm guranteed 2-shots patch, and having a non-spammable sub on a weapon with nova's efficiency is a waste of the one good stat it actually has going for it
i don wanna play

A special kind of massage where woomies and veemies slither over you in swim form!
>>566726728This seems like a massage only really fat veemos can do. The average woomveem is too light ot apply any pressure.
Y'know I only just watched the Raiders trailer for the second time, looks like you can freely select your weapon. My biggest complaint about SR and the campaigns is not being able to just use whatever I want, glad we're done with that
>>566729907i reckon itll probably let you free select in most stages, and then maybe challenge stages (like we saw with the squid rings) will have an equipper? that seems reasonablei like trying weapons but i know multiple people who like SO/SR only when they get to play their weapon
>>566729543Actually, how heavy even are woomveems? Somehow it feels like swim form is lighter-weight than inkling/octoling form
>>566731036It's not that they look lighter it's because most fanart depicts swim form as smaller when they're actually the same size as human form. regardless human form would be better for a massage from an average weight woomveem because of the points of contact being the feet where if it was swim form all the weight would be distributed like a weighted blanket and not target specific areas.

>>566731660life is good
Ever closer...
I wish there were molotovs as a sub>inb4 toxic mist, sprinkler, possibly even burst bombsI mean I GUESS…
>>566737219>works similar to a burst bomb but deals 25 damage over 3 secondscould be interesting
what was a bigger waste of dev time? Fuzzy Takos, Fizzbangs, Side Order
>>566737981side order because it was repetitive as fuckthe same ~45 minutes of gameplay but slightly different each time is lazy design
>>566737981this post
>>566737981Fizzbangs should've been a new sub.
>>566737219stop guessing and learn to control space with mists
>>566679534Yeah.She's voicing Frye.
>>566737981didn't side order take like 2 years, the others probably took like a few days
>>566739245It likely started as soon as the final fest ended.
>>566737981>it's another "people who know nothing about game development pretend to understand game development" episodei hate reruns.
in an alternate universe where order won, raiders is the mildly disappointing dlc campaign for splat3, while side order is a standalone masterpiece of the rogue-like genre
>>566739771you don't need to understand game development to acknowledge bad results
retard
>>566739776If order won, side order wouldn't exist.
>>566740331uhmbased
i still dont understand how the english localization has the blatantly wrong "We can hold more Fizzbangs!" line
>>566742175But it's correct? You can hold more fizzbangs.
>>566742510no, it's always sevenrather, the amount you get at spawn and from splats goes up by one each timefirst minute you spawn with one and get one for each splat, second minute you spawn with two and get two for each splat, last minute you spawn with three and get three for each splat
>>566739771uh ive been developing my game for 12 years though?
>>566737981fuzzy takos were a requirement and the designwork was probably already done by just the nature of the worldbuilding, at the point the artists were told they'd do fuzzy octarians they probably already started thinking about how it'd make the takos look, and they did get usefizzbangs won't have costed much development time to implement or model but add thematic value as well as giving something new and fresh during splatfests, even if it doesn't actually do anything ingame, a lot of splatoon's power is in worldbuilding and theming so it's got more than enough value thereside order surprise surprise is generally liked, allowed them to tie up a lot of loose ends in OE's story, allowed them to give a good bit more characterization to OtH, and even if you only want to talk about pvp game design likely has a lot of valuable telemetry on what people like in weapon behaviour and what they don'tgamedev a lot of the time is about finding balances between iterating and throwing shots in the dark. you want to keep things new while also inventing a new place in your genre better than any local maximum you might iterate ontoanything that gets people talking, hyped, keeps people interested, has details people can latch onto and fall in love with, it has value yknowyou might not enjoy any of these mechanics, but i'm not sure if you're aware of whether they've still had the power to keep you along for the ride, they might've. or maybe not, everyone's different. but if you ask a general question you have to get a generalized answer which states nothing is really a waste of dev timesomething is only a "waste" if nobody sees it AND your team didn't learn anything from itas a bit of context, i work in gamedev. i have seen an entire gamemode fleshed out into 100+ selectable abilities all balanced against eachother only to scrap the whole system. was it a waste? no, we got a lot of valuable testing data and knowledge of the genre we sit in and where we belong in it
>>566744562the fact that the first thing you said about side order is related to plot invalidates the rest of your wall of textgameplay sucks, thus waste of dev time, always, with no exceptionif you are in gamedev and don't see value in gameplay being as good as it can be, quit, nobody should be playing your fucking games
>>566747746but it's clear the devs learned the right lessons from side order's blunders for raiders, it wasn't a waste of time
>>566747746im in gamedev but not in game design, so it's not entirely my expertise, i should've clarified, so i'm generally inclined to bring up things other than the pure gameplay as well because imo they also matterbut i did mention the game design of it, did i not? and in the wider world the general opinion of it is "fun but needs more content", i'm not sure how that really clashes with what i'm saying or how that makes it a "waste"my point is moreso that "waste" is a tough thing to quantify because a) anything that enriches the game or even just keeps it fresh and content flowing is value, and b) the amount of things thrown away in R&D is insane
>>566744562Fuzzy takos barely being in the game make them a waste. It's like when games introduce a new control scheme for one stage that's shorter than a minute, like why even bother? you spend longer making these things than any player will ever spend even looking at them
holy fis JULY 23!! i just heard the good news

>>566754223kek the m0rmon had to force himself into the video
I wish woomy had a rail shooter
First thing we need to do is kill the guy who says "3 is good just by the fact it has rolls".
>>566755539Octavio is attacking Corneria! (again).
>>566755775But it is.
>>566755775It isn't good, just better than the alternative (deader AND plays worse).
The beauty of splatoon is that given the depth the setting has, you could theoretically make a bunch of spinoffs that don't adhere to the standard game mechanics like say an ika ika revolution rhythm game spinoff.
>>566754687Time for warm weather veemos
this game is for pedophiles only
>>566759974i'll play to the hour.
>>566755775it is though2 feels like shit to play
Truth is the first game would have died in one week if it wasn't for woomy. Gameplay doesn't matter as long as there is woomy. We all play to this day because of woomy. Praise be to woomy.
>>566763135Your not wrong the woomers and the veemers do make the game much more enjoyable and keep you playing far longer than if the game lacked them.
teammates like we've been getting realy make me hate rainmaker

>>566763506Seems like someone else wasn’t playing to their true potential.
lol
>>566763723the person next to me bumped someone else...
>>566756972on one hand, yes, there is heaps of potential, on another, what's the point of splatoon if you don't use its core mechanics?instead of "ddr but woomy-skinned", you should be thinking "what other genres can work with splat's turf mechanics?"imagine a splatoon turn-based strategy or a splatoon racing game with inkable ground

yep I'm groomin' woomins
>>566807767That's nothing new. The western splat community, especially the competitive side, seems to have someone new to ebin cancel all the time cause horny retards can't stop trying to groom minors.
>>566808316Wasn't one of these woomies supposed to be bleeding? maybe it was a different pic.
>>566800872the game tells you it's time, brotherpack intensify action and run speed (yes) and go learn the ways of goobermanrule of thumb for charges, 40 is 3-liner range, 100 is squiffer range, 180 is boozler range, use the three modes of operation based on where the opponent is, using more than what you need is wasteful60+40 bamboozles are your bread and butter for midrange keepaway, you don't lose momentum with short charges and rsu so you can outstrafe short-ranged guns, think wiper but with extra aiming and a bit less speedcharges between 60 and 100 are lemon charges, ok to use if you need a bit more time to line up your shot or you see someone with exact damage needed to finish off, but if you are past 70, you're not lined up and the opponent isn't gaining on you, go for a 100 for consistencynever! hold partials, only 100+ chargesgo to recon to find good surge spots and general sniping locations to handle midrange and harass big arms with 100s and 180s, it might be a lousy sniper but it is still a charger, an apex predator classtorpedo is the perfect sub for goob both mechanically and thematically, and goob is super ink efficient if you don't stick to big charges, so use it more more moretorp bonk combos are strong for quick close encounters, but only bonk if pressed, use the missile mode more to make the opponent choose between dying to you now, dying to your torp later, or running away and dying to a 100-charge, think rapid deco but you can chase them down if they choose to disengage because your range grows faster than they can swim awaygoob has splash's paint output with tapshots and missiles, and missiles are a perfect special for goob, so paint whenever you canchant "bless ngmi" thrice for adding healthbars to make the task of judging damaged opponents to finish off with precisely portioned partials trivialand don't forget to wear something very very silly, psychological damage is part of the deal so capitalize on it
>>566810287addendumsgoob bamboozles are much easier than perfect 50-50 booz boozles, and faster than "naive" 67+33 boozles (nevermind noob full charge boozles)goob bamboozles handily outgun wiper, the speed i meant is strafealso chant to ngmi for adding a second ring for 100-charge, it's nice qol
>>566808550
>>566810634also, with it being a charger, you get full benefits of short action, if opponent is gaining, hold the charge and just disengage, you have the freedom toif it's a 100, save it, if i's a lemon, drop it but not immediately, opponents are tracking the glow and will have to switch to tracking a dimmer ink trailholding sub-100 charges does not work because of the unsquid buffer, it not only takes time but it's also the one bit of long action the weapon is saddled with, you make yourself vulnerable for no benefit over dropping and going for a fresh boozledon't even be tempted to hold onto a ~90-charge to turn into 100 after unsquid because charging more after holding is behind another bufferhold is for big charges on distant targets exclusively

>>566808535It's also that children nowadays see writing documents like that as a way to gain clout and/or settle interpersonal drama. Playing as judge, jury and executioner often in very larpy ways. Often doing more harm to any victim involved, especially in the rare occasion that something actually illegal happened and these people refuse to actually alert authorities because writing cloud documents is more valuable to them The danger being that all of these documents potentially exist and might haunt people forever ... it's probably not good to settle playground drama this way ...

Then your have Bananza which is very good, MKW which is fun, and Raiders soon. And other titles already released or coming up.You could have saved up for it for a year or two knowing that it was inevitably coming. Over the lifespan of the console and the value you'll get out of it it's really not that much.>>566786418It's a screenshot saved from the native video capture.
