Do they have an option to change the control scheme? That might be kind of annoying.

There's a fucking SQUID button that does the same thing and is the main mechanic of the damn game.

>>286256667
People who played at E3 last year said they could change it to something more traditional.

Not sure why the running speed is so important, you're not supposed to run across the map and frag the other team, you're supposed to paint walls and once you've established your territory you can use the warp thing to go to any area of your color.

I get the feeling that he wanted it to be CoD, which it clearly isn't.

Just from reading the first paragraph I could tell it was Maelstrom. He always comes back to the same points and fails to understand what people like about the 3D Zeldas, even if they would be better with harder combat.

>>286257453

You only go slower if you're in the enemy team's paint, you don't walk faster if you're on your own ink compared to an unpainted surface

>>286257453
you enter snail mode in the opponent paint.
Also there's a running button, it's called Squid mode.

this game looks really stupid. the objective is what painting walls/floor more than your opponent?

But that's a lie.
You can use the right analog stick.

>>286256521
But both of those points are wrong.

You move slow since you are encouraged to spread ink and then swim in it to traverse the map quickly.

And it's been confirmed time and time again at e3 that you have the option to use gyro or stick camera controls.

You can squid change everywhere, it's just the speed boost that is only on your ink. And the comment about early game is why ink jumping is a valuable skill. that said painting a line in front of you is fast, and you can use your team mate ink so the progression is still fast from the start.

>>286258090

To be fair these mechanics have been around since forever because they're fun and gratifying. I can't see the novelty of a multiplayer game centered around painting the ground very long. Nintendo better be prepared with some deatchmatch options.

>>286258562

>>286256521
>Why can’t I just use a control stick or something, where I have 20+ years of muscle memory trained?

This is such a dumb way of thinking. Like, he's admitting not wanting to play anything that he doesn't know how to play already. you call that shit being a gamer? He's a frightened casual who learned a single trick to fit in and now use his energy to defend it instead of learning hos to play games.

>>286256521
that second paragraph
someone forgot to check the controller options

>>286258746
What's more funny is that the stick can be used to aim just fine. He must not have played it himself at all.

>>286258746
and even then, I can't imagine a game like this will only have 1 control scheme to it, surely the pro pad will be available for use in some fashion.

Now the real big retarded issue is gonna be that it
>won't have voice chat for randoms
>probably won't have a feature to have you and your friends stick together in the same matches

Which is absolutely retarded and means you need eight goddamn people to set up a match or you're doing randoms by yourself

>>286256521
>slow running speed
you are not supposed to run, you are supposed to be a squid in the ink, which is why the walking speed is slow, else ther would be no point to be a squid

fucking retard

>>286258746
Why is this a bad thing?

It's like playing fighting games you're entire life and then bumping into one that requires you to waggle your controller to punch. Even if you call this a casual attitude, the idea of rotating and moving the controller pad sounds awful and tiring.

You don't have to go to these lengths to defend a Nintendo game. I'm sure it'll be fun, but this doesn't mean it's a good choice.

>every game must be fast paced action to be fun

This mentality is what is killing gaming

>>286259040
>It's like playing fighting games you're entire life and then bumping into one that requires you to waggle your controller to punch
But that's exactly how they already work and why people who don't play them hate learning to do so

>>286258562
doesn't look as slow as they described it. seems like a normal speed for a game that is about painting everything. besides the squid form will get you around where your color is.

>>286259385
Here's your reply.

I played it at EGX last year. The walking speed wasn't as slow as CoD, so that's fine. One of the main focuses of the game anyway is travelling quickly in squid mode, which is kind of glitchy but feels great.
The aiming is awkward, you use the stick for left/right and tilt for up/down and more precise left/right aiming. I wouldn't be surprised if there's an option for stick aim, but at the same time it seems they want to "make use" of Wuu features as much as possible.
Don't worry about the pace, it's definitely fast and punishing. Kind of reminded me of EXVS for some reason.

>>286257951
Killing your opponent prevents them from painting over your shit and makes a big explosion in your color where they died.

Also, this is pretty much the only negative feedback I've seen from people that claimed to have played the game. I mean, the game was one of the most popular ones back when it was announced in E3, no? And I've only heard praise for it ever since, albeit there are of course some legitimate complaints. But as a game, it's supposedly pretty good, even as a small demo.

Once again a reviewer goes into a game with a long list of expectations, and writes a poor review because those expectations are not met to the letter.

You can move not only quickly, but stealthily through your color of ink, and if there isn't already a traditional right control stick camera option in some menu that the public didn't have access to, there likely will be after Nintendo hears that feedback.

You can even shot and then hop into the ink jump out and shoot again jumping into the next ink for faster movement and gaining more territory.

Why would they lie? Nintendo hasn't lied about their framerates at all since the Wii U has been out. They outright said Mario Kart 8 would run at 60fps with two or less players, but anymore locally would drag it to 30.
They said Smash would run at 1080 60fps, and look at that, it does.

Gotta love the fangs / beak

I don't understand the movement speed complaint

I thought the idea of the game was territory control, and with expanded territotry comes a greater range of movement (more areas to dive in)

Having faster passive movement speed diminishes the impact of that concept

Squid mode makes getting around really quick, but is is also brilliant for hiding in plain sight. If you keep control of the ink on the ground then it helps stop people entering or disapearing from the battle via squid
>>286273556
doesn't excuse how op's blogger clearly had no co-ordination for not using squid mode or being incapable of using an intuitive aiming method

while that guy's complaints are all horseshit I'm still not particularly excited for the game.

Doesn't really offer much in the way of making me interested. Then again I haven't really given a fuck about multiplayer shooters since TF2 went to shit.

When starting the demo theres a 2 minute warmup time where your in your own instance of the map with control popups and balloons to shoot. If it's like EGX there was also a staff member talking you through it.
If you still couldn't understand one stick to move/strafe, one to turn and motion to aim then its denial of a brilliant control scheme. blasting and moving is simple with it.

To be fair. I don't think Nintendo has high sales expectation because of that.

>>286275259
There was a lot at the event and the wait was about 15/20 mins so I only played once. I completely blitzed the opposition and topped that rounds scoreboard. Granted I did find that the range and size of the bazooka you get (superweapon after x points/kills) is capable of shooting into the spawn area and near instantly shutting down opposition.
There seemed to be a lot of people that didn't realize painting walls has no effect on scores.

>Idiots would rather use two-sticks for shooting than have to learn something new even if it is more precise

Don't get me wrong, it sounds annoying, but expect all the top Splatoon players to be using motion controls. I'm calling it now.

>>286258746
ny gamer who seriously argues for controller standards or who's enjoyment of a game largely hinges on if small differences in controller design meet their expectations, does not put gameplay first. I can understand a gamer frustrated at not having certain options like inverting the Y-axis, and I can understand the stress that can come from overcoming physical handicaps. But for the most part, I can't help but think that complaints about controls come from gamers who no longer want to learn (an important part of most gameplay experiences). Learning and mastering controls is part of what makes gameplay challenges difficult.

These gamers might reason, 'why learn a new control scheme for X game when I've already mastered the controls for game Y of the same genre.' The simple answer is because Y is a different game than X. We shouldn't ignore the fact that controller design (including controller feel) is an legitimate quality of a gameplay experience. Some developers want players to have to input a certain way to play their games, while others allow players to customize everything. The choice is ultimately up to the developers. A willingness to learn and embrace new gameplay should also come with a willingness to learn new control schemes.

>>286271829
You have to aim using the gyroscope on the gamepad while controlling the camera with the right analog, so that's why it's wonky.

Look the only REAL Nintendo was NES and Wii era. As early as the SNES they were moving to making game about satisfying their need to be creative rather then satisfying the customer, which lead to the GC era, where they rightful sold horribly.

The consumer is all, praise be the free market for it share's it's wisdom with flesh and blood.

You mean REmake games :^)

The real concern isn't anything in that review. The big question everyone should be asking is what the online is like.

If they fuck up online, only letting you play only randoms or only friends, no team building or no community, then this game will have lost most potential. I'll play it for a week or 2 without those things like Kid Icarus Uprising or sub wars, but if you can't get together with friends and develop a meta, then this kinda game just loses a lot of its promise.
