Splatoon thread

Flying:
>No guarantee you'll move faster than you normally would
>Everyone sees you do it
>No real practical use outside of saving you from dying in a fall or some really odd jobs you probably don't want to have anyways
>All the news cameras turn to you, you get arrested for breaking some obscure no flying law, scientist study you trying to figure it out
>Someone shoots you for being a freak

Invisibility
>No one needs to know you have it
>Can hide it very well by definition of what the power does
>Practical for legal uses, mischief, or crimes
>Can save your life in more situations

Another general? Don't these belong on /vg/?

So what will the splatfest colors be?
Water (invisibility) vs ?

>>387443012
Blue/purple for flight and green for invisibility. Water is not a color.

>>387443012
Invisible ink. They automatically lose

>>387443012
it's always the colors of the background, so it's like a bluish purple for flying and green for invisibility

Yeah I explained myself wrong. I just meant that one team would shoot water even if that would be confusing as hell to distinguish.

yeah, but can you make your clothes invisible, or do you need to be naked to do it?

Here's a good one.

Invisibility 1000x if you can master it to not make your entire body invisible.

>girls don't suspect you grabbed their ass when you have no arms
>Airport gives you special treatment when you have no legs
>you can be the headless horseman for Halloween
>you can wear armor and pretend it's possessed
>You can make everything but your arm invisible and pretend you're Thing from the Addams Family.
>You can wear some shoes and do some sick looking tap dance performances
>You can dress up like an Ayy and make it look like you're riding a mini-flying UFO by making your legs invisible
>you can make everything but your bones invisible to terrorize /v/
>You can make everything but your cock invisible and terrorize your sister

>Marinafags are so desperate to make invisible sound like a good ability
sad

>>387441702
>Can hide it very well by definition of what the power does
Most comics and anime depict invisibility only affecting the skin/human, not his clothes.
Meanwhile, everyone with flight has increased flight speed
also what practical legal uses does it have? its only for edgelords

when is the next splatfest?

>>387448612
>also what practical legal uses does it have?

>Make a Bed and breakfast and advertise it as haunted.
>Rake in millions trolling paranormal fags.

That's the life.

Is the pro controller worth shelling out for?

>>387449137

Not for this game. The objectively best way to play is the joycons split up. You can aim the cursor with only one arm rather than two. I bought a silicone grip to make the joycons thicker.

>>387449137
Yes. It makes pretty much every game feel a lot better to play.

>>387443985
We've pretty much concluded in the last thread that flight is for heroes, invisibility is for villians.

>>387448612
>implying invisablity doesn't work like it should while flight gets bonuses just because you say so

Not him, but the depiction of invisibility they're using is of a squid with an invisible body but visible clothes.

Turf War with aerospray and cash up tickets and doing Salmon Run at least until 1200 for both super bonuses.

I'm not very big on super powers (in the Marvel/DC way), so I'm not sure which one to pick. I was on Marina's side last Splatfest, should I pick Pearl to be different this time?

>>387459353
I'm a total Marinafag, but having picked mayo last time, my Splatfest experience was a ton better. Not sure who the majority would be here.

How is invisibility for villains?

>Manipulate documents, haunt politicians and scare them into doing what you want
That sounds pretty villainous to me anon

>>387461876
meant to reply to
>>387461703

>>387460725
So, burst bombs are the best weapon and not the splattershot?

>>387461876
But they are the bad guys. You wouldn't harm the little guy, you wouldn't even harm the politicians just scare them shitless into making your vision true.

>>387461995
Pretty much. I'm experimenting but the downside to shooters is their range but bombs nullify that.

>>387461703
>Kill all the tyrants in the world without ever being discovered

Thermal goggles are a thing, nu-Light. Also, you can do good without resorting to killing, especially if you're invisible.

In what way? The original game was rushed by Nintendo, yet still was able to have a better update schedule. This game had way less shit to do, since they had the old game as a base, and most shit could be directly imported, so they should definitely be able to churn out more content and have consistent updates. They should honestly be updating faster than the last game

I wonder if making the tower bigger/less claustrophobic would make it a more tolerable mode.

How do I get gud /v/? can I twin stick reliably or do I need to learn the motion control shit?
Whats also a good gun? the splattershot Jr seems like a gun that you need to drop ASAP

>>387468161
Jr is a decent weapon, despite being the starter. Pretty much every splattershot variant is good.
Motions controls are essential.
