For a hour and a half me and my pals in a team just fought other ice cream teams

First cake we get is a clan of semi-pro twitch streamers. Woof

Yeah I use it from an out of the way spot it's worked great, me and dualies on the other hand, not so much.

Muscle memory is not giving me as much trouble as I thought it would.

Other people disconnecting, idling or spending the entire match shooting their ink in our already inked territory is instead giving me all the trouble.

I've only ever lost to ice cream. Cake is always a stomp.

Its hard to guess the global stats based on our anecdotes.

It's a free demo. Anybody in this thread will be stomping on kids' faces, so don't expect your performance to reflect the final result.

Losing about 60% of my matches at the moment because someone on our team will disconnect pretty much every match now.

This isn't the most enjoyable way to play this game.

This game is a ton of fun. I feel like I'll be playing a ton more of it when it's actually out and you earn XP and money and stuff, because I'm not totally happy with the weapons you've got here in the beta thing. want that umbrella

The weapons were super diverse in the first so you'll find a few you love.

The weapon in the tutorial seemed like the Splattershot Jr. so I'm hoping that makes a comeback.

The friends I'm with are all treating this rather casually as we haven't seen much cake. Go figure when we swap off the weapons we're good with just to gently caress around we get matched with cakes and flounder around like morons

Wtf? I can draw on my switch with my finger but not with a stylus...

How the gently caress do people draw so good? I could do okay with a pen, but no way can I draw for poo poo with a thumbstick or my finger.

You need a capacitive stylus I believe. The switch screen isn't like the Wii u screen

It's pretty neat how they turn the player art into textures and put them on the flags the inklings wave. :3:

Ugh, lame. I was hoping my wiiu or 3ds stylus would work since Nintendo didn't include one with switch!

At least on 3ds/wiiu you can draw with your fingernail for some accuracy. Having to draw with the pad of my finger? Impossible!
