/ink/ - Splatoon General

why does one of the boy hairstyles have no tentacles?? what does it mean lore wise?

You niggers don't care but please reassure me on how laughly bad Stiingray is. I mean I literally get free kills and free turf every time I see that sad laser.

Cant wait for the buff patch that lead it to kill a person in less than 15 hits.

Sex with Marie!

I used to be the same way. Use the walls and obstacles around the map to charge and corner peak for targets

>>183591061
Worse than the kracken brush but its much better than the other two inkbrush variants from the first game. Splat bomb is the best possible sub it can have

All of the specials feel really nerfed.
That said, Ive been having fun with the bubble. I didn't expect anything but its kind of fun to use and often gets surprise KOs on people.

Shame it cant go up walls though.

you can tell they havent planned some of the single player levels for certain weapons. the reliance on bombs and inkjets to to grapple on to things is annoying after the 7th time running through the same level.

so now that they've dumped attack and defence ups what the fuck stat are best to stack?

A quick question. I know that the Switch's screenshot album can have 1,000 pictures and you can add a micro SD card to raise that limit to 10,000.
What size card do you recommend getting? Since it'll only let you hold 10k pictures, obviously I don't want to spend money for extra space it won't use.

The extra space can be used for updates, digital games, and dlc though. I'd recommend 16GB at the minimum if its just for pictures, 64GB at the minimum if you know you'll buy a game or two. The switch internal storage will eventually be full of system updates and game updates.

>>183595604
it would be nice if it worked on blasters, but I guess nintendo thought it would be too good

Do you get anything from getting all scrolls / sardines?
And is there really no point to hero weapons in mp except the cosmetic?

>>183595394
ALWAYS be moving, fling as much as you can (you're like the roller version of aerospray so focus on covering a lot of area) and take the enemy by surprise, this is what makes the brush strong in a way. Also don't draw lines unless you are in an uninked corridor, it's useless elsewhere.
You can do very good with it but you gotta be moving a lot!

>>183595764
That’s basically what I’ve been doing and it’s been working out well. Just wasn’t sure if I was using it wrong since I assumed the fast line drawing was supposed to be the appeal of the weapon, otherwise the octobrush seems like it’d be better.

>>183595636
Hero Shot Replica, looks like the fully upgraded Hero Shot (which looks like a P90 in turn)

It has Splattershot stats.

To get any Hero Weapon replica, you have to do every level of Hero Mode (in total 32 kettles including bosses) with that Hero Weapon. You should by default have Hero Shot completion for the first world and the final boss, and hero weapon completion for any level that had a Sheldon Request.

You can't get the Brella Replica yet, though.

>>183595905

I've been trying to play through the story mode and I'm finding it to be so amazingly boring. Currently up to the 7th stage, been taking the time to get the wrench thing and the page from each level but no completionism aside from that.

Does it get better?

>>183596931
Do you stay and ink your base when the match starts? Try going out into the map instead. Grabbing a lot of ground right off the bat helps keep the fighting away from the spawn.

>>183596626

>>183596265
It's because you didn't upgrade it at the enhancer thingy

feed it somewhere in the range of 3000 power eggs and it becomes a god, just make sure you get an ink tank upgrade too

What do I do with autobombs? They run slower than opponents and their idea of pathfinding is "straight line to target even if there's a wall"

when is salmon run rotation
also how do you not get overrun by 10 bosses

>>183597315

let me put it this perspective. we usually rush mid and ink spawn, then by some dumb fucking miracle they get the upper hand, and oh they already have most the map covered in 20 seconds flat. THough, it could be the aerospray mg is just junk or I'm using it wrong.

because of western culture not having the bratty loli stereotype that hime is based on
pearl wears pseudo lolita, which western people think of as young and pure, and Marina has the black dj stereotype, which means she has to be "lit" "fire" "savage af family"

>>183597437
3 weapons have it, Heavy Splatling, 96 Gal, and Aerospray RG.

Basically this, I think the next set looks promising but it'll probably be on that fuck-awful boat level.

>>183597567
Aerospray is great, I easily break 1.2k points every single time I use it and usually place first overall, even if we don't win.

>>183597792

Has anyone found out what the rewards are for lifetime inkage on Splatnet2? It says you "might be rewarded", but I don't think I got anything for the first milestone.

>>183597698

>>183597749

I do hope we get an inkbrush with a sprinkler eventually, hopefully with the inkloud or the baller

>>183597884
I don't really understand the schedule or why it had to be implemented. Maybe they're trying to figure out what works so they can implement full-time servers? Would explain some of the God-awful weapon sets.

>every single set but the first has had a weapon that makes you a useless team member

Do you think the single player ink is glittery because it's supposed to be permanent?
Turf war is just pretend battles with ink that dries out after the match but real war ink would be made to last, right?

>>183597593
But everyone can understand comedic foils though. Which is exactly what brash person + nervous person is. Precocious children and flying against expected tropes are also prime comedic material.

It's why some anime is universally watchable. Even if most of the material flies over people's heads, they get enough to enjoy it anyway.

>>183597348
Now shut the fuck up buddy, all five Splat1 Nozzles were excellent. L3s have the fastest run speed and outrange 2-liners so they are the prime anti-meta, and H3s had ridiculous amounts of good qualities- excellent inking due to range and output, quick splat, great run speed (it actually outruns Splattershots), perfect accuracy and three good kits overall that also happened to have great synergy with the main- balanced by difficulty- movement techs, aiming and trigger discipline are more importamt than with any other weapon. Dunno about Spla2n, haven't unlocked them yet.

Is it just me or do the hairstyles look like shit other than the originals? Is it that I just don't like change or are they bad?

>>183598147
I think it's glittery because it's a neat effect. If we're going to lorewank, then I assume it's because it's ink for war rather than ink for play.

Are the Salmon Run rewards the same for everyone? In addition to the terrible weapons all I have is purple capsules for the first 5 or so rewards.

How am I supposed to afford all this Splatnet gear if I cant get a free 60K from Salmon Run?

>>183598147
Maybe abrasive additives for better penetration. Too expensive and dangerous for pretend play, perfect for war.

>>183598149
you must not understand localization then. The average westerner hates anime and hates japanese tropes. They want media that appeals to them.
They wouldn't understand why the little girl is such a bitch and why the cool black dj is so shy when current black culture is to roast and flame people.
you're like the people on /a/ who bitch about subtitle and dub localization choices, because the average american has no clue what an onigiri is or what itadakimasu means, and they have no desire to look it up.

>>183598283
Calm down salt lick.
>>183598346
I don't either, I really only engage if someone enters my range. Aeropspray's rapid fire makes it primo for turfing, just rapidly turn back and forth and you can out-turf even rollers.

>>183598179
The boys' short hair reminds me of Kosaku Kira, but fuck all the hipster styles.

Anyone got a screenshot of that Humpback Pumptrack dialogue where Pearl mentions Marina's motorcycle?

>>183598147
In reality its probably because its easier to maintain 60 fps in single player so they decided to make it look extra pretty.

>>183598157
The problem is the horrible lag that haunted S1 nonstop. a quick splat doesn't mean anything if it doesn't register in time, and I need something to ink a quick escape path while I wait for the other guy to die. Good qualities aren't worth shit if the game's hardware can't back it up.

Is there ANY way I can buy a Nintendo Switch for a reasonable price? I don't care about Snipperclips and a toy water gun, so I'm basically overpaying. Not to mention I'm not all that hyped for MK8D, as much as I do want to play it someday. Seriously, somebody give me a switch for a price that's not bullshit.

>>183598746
It means quite a lot- it's a great ambush weapon, while something like Dual Squelcher isn't- it is way too slow. But even regardless of that, it's still among the best inkers, it's a 3-liner that runs faster than most 2-liners so it can easily bully most common weapons, it's gear-inddpendent outside of needing ink resistance so you can actually pack run and swim speed, and its kits are actually useful.

You know, I was just thinking. Nintendo might have made a big mistake with Pearl and Marina. Even more so than Marina's butchered translation or Pearl's not so good design.

They're idols...and that's it. They exist only to tell you the stages every hour of the day with some flavor text. The only reason they're their is because the Squid Sisters are occupied with story stuff.

In Splatoon, Callie and Marie had two roles. Being the face of Inkopolis and as secret agents of the Squidbeak Platoon. We got to see more of them, and their roles as characters only got more fleshed out in S2. Conversely, the only input Pearl and Marina have to the story is "Oh no, Callie and the Zapfish are gone." and "Yay! Callie and the Zapfish are back!"

What I'm getting at is, in the long run, nobody has any reason to care about Off the Hook like we do the Squid Sisters.

At least you can shoot to kill it by yourself. You only have enough ink for one bomb per try. You need two players to kill a flyfish, and 90% of the time you either miss or you both land it in the same tank. If you're lucky enough to even have someone else there to help.
at least have the tanks stay open longer. Even if you kill it, it's a guaranteed two strikes anyways because the missiles still land after death.

Flyfish is the bane of salmon run. Either reduce bomb ink consumption or nerf it somehow.

Marina is symbol of peace between the cephalopods, Pearl is one who protects her in the cruel world of racist inklings- she likely was popular before Marina surfaced, or at least separately from her. That is a great dynamic that's only makes sense in japanese and completely ruined in localisation.

Literally none of the things you just said are confined to japanese culture though.

>>183601017
The problem is that there are multiple boss Salmons and hordes after you. You can't sit around and wait for the hatches to open in addition to requiring 3+players to effectively kill it.
you look up to see if the hatches are open, you get killed by something else. It requires so much more attention and cooperation than any other boss salmon. It's just irritating to fight. It's also guaranteed 2 strikes no matter what since even if you kill it when it first opens it's tanks, the missiles can't be stopped.

the ink/octobrush could make some use of it

I was thinking of rebuying Zelda digitally and lending him my physical copy. If I do this though, will I be able to access my saves on my digital copy, or are they linked to my cartridge?


If I do this then he will be able to get Splatoon 2 and play with me, so I'm really wondering if this would work

I can tell you it's not because I'm the person bitching about the localization. Now actually read the dude's damn post instead of flying off the handle at people having opinions

Seriously Ink "drop this at the end for a free 3 percent" Strike was stupid
Kraken was a panic "Press RS to not die and probably get 3 kills" button and was broken and dumb
Good riddance.

Mexicans will make me quit splatoon. Why can't it be like it was before

>>183601521
make sure you have the high ground with sloshers.

Why did nobody bitch about the American localization in 1?

>>183601646
But at some point I plan to get to the highest levels. So if the first few days of the game it's fine but the rest of the time it's fucked, I don't know how that'll work out. I don't know how it worked before, but 99/100 games I was in at A+ and beyond, I was the only non-Japanese player.

Because it wasn't executed in the most hamfisted way possible. Callie and Marie actually worked as a comedy duo, as opposed to Marina just heaping abuse on for no reason.

I'm pretty sure it's because Callie is doing the decorating for the Octarians this time around, as seen in one of the Sunken Scrolls where she suggests adding glitter and tape to everything. That's why there's so much stickers and glitter everywhere, and why the ink has glitter in it too.

he fucked up and posted a tranny porn image before deleting it and using an emoji for the same post

>>183601521
im no expert but i play them both the most so ill try help
slosher
try keep to high ground, you kill in 2 hits at any range so use that range to stay safe
brush
god knows
i like to make a beeline for behind the enemy with the roll mode then paint shit up, you lose to pretty much everything ina fair fight so when they come hide like a bitch and ambush them. high ground also helps. ink spread real wide so avoid hallways if you wanna turf good.

Can you skip the boss intro when replaying level?
