Splatoon 1 is objectively better in it's current state. You can't prove me wrong.

>>389794810
Splatoon 1 because you can back up your saves and everyone could see your drawings. In splatoon 2 they only show the ones that get 10000 likes.

>>389794810
How can either be better when they're the same game?

Splatoon 1 was better by the time it ended, but
Splatoon 2 launched a LOT better than Splatoon 1 did.

If you don't miss the Splatoon 1 specials, you're not a true Splatoon fan. They should make a "for fun mode" where you can use old special. To me, the special in Splatoon one was it's signature and made the game. Also, now the sting ray is more powerful than it should be.

>>389797610
Splatoon 1 had too many get out of jail free cards

>>389797610
1 had too many specials that made you outright invulnerable, easily one shotted everyone else, or both.

That's why they went with an entirely new set of specials, there was too damn many of these types and they wanted to steer away from them hard, and for good reason.

IT'S THE SAME GAME SLAPPED WITH A 2 IN IT.

>>389798960
No

I sincerely miss the gamepad map and minigames. But aside from that I like Splatoon 2 a lot more.

Splatoon 2 is a lot more fun to play, and so far has a lot more to offer compared to Splatoon 1. Salmon Run is probably its best feature.

On the other hand, Splatoon 1 exhibited a lot of late-80s/early-90s influence, which I liked most about it. Splatoon 2 sort of has the same thing, but it feels like they've turned it down a bit. The stages were also a lot better in Splatoon 1. I'm glad the specials are gone, though.

Ultimately, though Callie & Marie > Pearl & Marina

>>389797610
How the hell are you going to use some of them with no touchscreen map?

I do miss the Kraken, though.

A lot of the changes were better in 2's favour but i wish they would have kepted the weapons from 1 in the game instead of this release a weapon every week shit. If you want to hold back the 2nd version of a weapon, fine but don't keep out BOTH versions of a weapon that was in Splatoon 1. The story 2 felt really rushed and the new idols have basically no story to them. They better have some huge updates up their sleeves.

Damage up might be gone but Moray Towers still remains so fuck that too

>>389802236
Moray towers is fixed.
The ziplines make it much better as well as the widened lower area.
I hated that map in the first.

>>389802513

Splatoon 1 had the better drip-feed of content so far, shit's taking too long with 2. It'd be fantastic if a new map and a revised original map were both released every month or so, along with weapons and such.

That said 2 fixes damn near all the faults of the original. Having a third randomized stage for every splatfest was a great idea.

Just started playing 2 this week without having played 1. I wish the matches were longer since I feel sometimes like I'm waiting for matches longer than I'm actually playing them. It also needs some type of level sorting system so that the players are all at around the same level. If there's one person who's way higher than everyone else then their team is almost certain to crush the other one.

>>389802965
Pretty sure 2's image is in handheld mode. Docked it looks considerably better than 1.

Since no known person bought a Wii U, it is an impossible to know comparison.

>>389802965

The resolution can occasionally scale down to Wii U-ish levels, but unlike the first game it maintains a solid 60fps, which is way more important.

The only things that are not better in 2 are the tickrate, the ranked system and the update schedule. Everything else is better on the whole, especially the balance. Though, if we don't end up with AT LEAST the same amount of content added post launch, then that is indefensible laziness on the part of the developers, and Splat1 will be remembered more fondly

>>389803781
You're just an idiot. There are way more flanking routes and cover in these maps than the original game. You seriously must not have played it if you don't remember being shut off from the other teams half of the map by eliters and dynamos. Short range weapons that aren't quick respawn lunas on TC are now actually viable.

I think splatoon 2 content updates will be around for a while.
Splatoon 1 came out later in the wiiu's life and it was well known by then how much of a burning pile of money the wiiu was for nintendo.
Splatoon 2 came out soon after the Switch release and signs are pointing to the systems success, so they wont be making another console any time soon.

Aiming with joysticks alone is for scrubs so I dunno about that. With gyro aiming, I did find it pretty damn impossible to play with split joycons. Fitting them both in that shell controller or using the pro controller works fine.

>>389794916

>>389807990
figures. have the shell but no pro.
while on the subject, which pro is better, Nintendo or Hori?

>>389807471
>>389807552
If you disabled motion controls then of course it does.
The gyro controls are the closest you're going to get to m/kb level of aiming precision and turning speed.
No motion control is like trying to play an fps on the computer with the keyboard alone.

If you're gonna disable gyro controls on the pro controller too I'll tell you now: the pro controller wont help you.

>>389808625
I'd assume Nintendo's, but Hori's easy on the wallet, and comes with a turbo button

>>389802236
This. Marie and Callie were integrated into the story for both 1 and 2. Pearl and Marina are just there.

>>389794810
to be honest isn't the only reason splatoon 2 exists because the wii U is dead?
they could have made updates to splatoon 1 with dlc and such instead if it wasn't so unpopular the had to euthanize it

>>389809753
I'm hoping they make some kind of story for them, maybe another single player campaign involving them.
Cause if they're just there to be the announcers and singers then callie and marie make them pretty redundant.
Only reason they aren't the hosts again is because of the single player mode story, but then it's not like the great zapfish going missing stops pearl and marina from throwing rave parties either.

>>389810168
Basically, yeah. You could say that about any multiplayer focused game that gets updates, though.

>>389810791
Not to mention that the special rebalance was huge and could not have been done to Splatoon without major uproar from the players

>>389810893
Could've been done, though. There's also stuff in Splatoon 1's files that was obviously under development that seems further along in development in Splatoon 2's, specifically playable Octolings.

Nintendo really fucked over people in Latin America. We are stuck playing with each other instead of matchmaking all over the world. there are not enough of us. Sometimes it takes more than five minutes to start a fucking game.

>>389811034
Right, cause completely removing every special from the game and replacing them with new ones would have really gone over well. Not to mention that the map design and match flow would be drastically altered by it

>>389803185
I dunno about balance, we had the trislosher up until the current patch which was just busted.

>>389811364
>Right, cause completely removing every special from the game and replacing them with new ones would have really gone over well.
How it would've been received is irrelevant. It's completely doable. Not only that, but they've done shit to stages that heavily changed how they played in Splatoon 1, no reason they couldn't have done the same to the updated stages in Splatoon 2.

>>389811278

>1 slightly OP weapon VS specials that break entire gamemodes and 3 dominant weapons

>>389811603
jesus. chill bro

>>389811557
Literally anything could be done through patches. Your argument is idiotic

I've only just started playing the multiplayer and why should I use the splattershot instead of the splattershot jr?
Jr seems better at covering the ground so why bother with a more accurate gun with a slower fire rate?

>>389811278
Yes but it means the rest of us don't have to play with you fags, which has immensely improved the experience.

>>389811908
That was the original point, just so you know.

>>389811995

>>389809384
Something tells me the Hori's stick won't aim as well as a Nintendo branded controller in comparison.

>>389811921

You may come to prefer the splattershot's sub/special ability, higher range or just general feel of the gun, though either one is perfectly valid for turf war.

Ranked is when short-range shit like the splattershot jr. and aerospray become largely useless.

FUG

>>389811921
Basically someone needs to be getting splats. In ranked especially, but even in Turf War, it'll become apparent that kills really matter in this game. The respawn time is a whopping 8.4 seconds by default. Turf War is basically decided by whoever gets more kills at the tail end of the game.

Splattershot Jr. is a point/special farming gun.

Everyone bringing up how the first game had updates a lot faster seems to be having a bit of amnesia on that whole affair. When the original game was released it was basically fucking early access and had no fucking content. Fuck they even priced it lower in EU iirc. So yeah, they released content a lot faster because there was none to begin with and they were trying to hurry it out the door to make it a proper game. The sequel was released in a much more complete state and this they probably don't feel the need to push out content as fast. I still agree though that it's going too slow don't get me wrong.

>>389814307
This. Remember when Ranked only had Splat Zones and only went up to A+?

>>389814307

I consider it pretty slow just because they're clearly not averse to reusing maps, but are taking their sweet time in getting anything out. A retweaked map from the first game every two weeks and a new map every month or so would be just fine.

A new ranked mode would be nice, too, something a little more team-based and sprawled across the map instead of the three "Here go fight over this single area" modes we have now.

>>389814307
The original game and the sequel have the same amount of maps right now. The original may have more. Think about that

>>389814886
High possibility of new ranked mode from a recent datamine. Something involving rockets. Seems somewhat similar to rainmaker but a lot of details not clear as there's multiple components to it.

>>389797610
I honestly think Killer Wail is the only special that shouldn't of been replaced, all the other specials are better are more balanced versions from Splatoon 1

Splatoon 1, better specials like >>389797610 said and the Gamepad map was killer. Also the aiming feels less precise in this one, but maybe that's just the awkward controller options compared to how great the Gamepad felt.

Splatoon 2 also somehow feels like it's aiming at a younger audience in general. I'm not sure why. Everything just feels more un-hip.

It's kind of sad because I basically bought a Switch for this game but I don't regret my purchase, on-the-go BotW and Sonic Mania has been amazing.

>>389815123
>Not wanting Echolocator back.

It just reveal the enemy position. You can still get fuck by them.

>>389815247
Also the new maps in Splatoon 2 are GARBAGE so far aside from Shifty Station.

>>389815394
Oh yeah, I guess that one can make a return too, It's just that even while I was playing splatoon 1 Echolocator was a really easy-to-forget special for me
