Charging is also fine if you see long lines of Salmonids that aren't right in your face, which the doors on this map help encourage. Charging is also good for getting hits on eels, scrappers, and drizzlers, so charging isn't something that you should never do.

Unless there is literally nothing else to kill i rarely even charge for those and will instead just drop a bomb or drop ink on other trash while waiting for the clean shot to come up.

100YrsofAttitude posted:How do you use a roller well? My biggest issue with them is ammo. With pretty much every other weapon I lay my trail out before me, swim through it and shoot again, but you can't do that with a roller and use it effectively. What happens when you run out of ammo? Someone who really uses them should speak up on that, I more know the kind of aggressiveness they have when they got any room to work with and how to deal with it.

I really don't like this current map rotation in Tower control. Also holy poo poo, did all the Tri-Slosher players flock to the Octobrush? I'm seriously considering picking up the Aerospray just to defang them, because no one values map control in ranked. Araxxor fucked around with this message at 20:05 on Sep 9, 2017 |

I'm seriously considering picking up the Aerospray just to defang them, because no one values map control in ranked. Probably. It has similar killing power to the Tri Slosher when mashing the trigger, and the autobomb is real good. I actually feel like it kills a bit faster than the Tri Slosher, dunno how the range compares though.

Not sure about compared the Tri-Slosher but the Octobrush definitely has more range than you'd expect.

squidgee posted:Not having motion controls in other Switch games is driving me nuts after playing this non-stop. Yup, Destiny 2 is somewhat unplayable to me due to this. Use the Custom JR if you want to play support against octobrush users. The auto bomb helps sniff them out from ink as well. JackDarko fucked around with this message at 22:37 on Sep 9, 2017 |

Holy poo poo, with the custom shooty puff jr. plus the resurgence of the octobrush I've been seeing an absolute gently caress ton of autobombs recently. It's gotten to the point where I'm hearing the drat things while walking around my house.

I bit the bullet and adopted motion controls and holy gently caress what a difference it makes in Salmon Run. I went from floundering around in Go-getter to maxing out the bar in profreshional, I feel like TASbot sniping everything and laying down bombs in perfect precision to revive dead teammates. Still suck at turf wars for some reason though

Yes that's true! I've seen a lot of really good players on pro teams on twitch advocate toward using it if you play shooter weapons. You should use not use it you play the "support" role.

If you're supporting that means you're focused on giving your team map control you should not be dying or playing aggressively so comeback makes less sense.

N-Zaps should also try to build up that special meter so they can get Ink Armors off, especially after the special cost reduction they got.

that makes sense. i think i need to reevaluate how i play as nzap and cssjr in ranked-- should i focus more on attacking from the sides and painting forward of the objective to give us turf advantage? i often find myself, for example, on the tower. i try not to get on it if we don't have team advantage but sometimes the thrill of battle overcomes me

The Jr.s aren't really good killing weapons, as their range is very short. So it's very difficult to approach your targets in a lot of cases. I'd say inking turf, staying alive, and building up those specials are higher priorities than getting into fights. The N-Zap has more combat potential due to more range, though ideally, you don't focus too much on that unless you spot a very good opportunity to do so. For the kinds of weapons that can build up special real easily, and can stand on their own, I would say Special Charge Up is a lot better to have. (Get Tenacity if you stack a ridiculous amount of Special Charge Ups.)

Well that makes it completely worthless then... I swear I am on the biggest losing streak of my life since the latest tweaks in the update. This is the poo poo that is making me just want to put it down and not play it anymore Both games that I was finally winning I get a commmnications error too. What the gently caress is going on...

Something must have switched in my head or something, cus I went from all ok S ranks to to two A+'s, one of which has like three cracks and isn't even at OK yet. I used to have twice as many wins as losses, but now it's almost to the complete opposite. Really kills my motivation to keep playing, which probably makes me play worse.

I just remember in the last game on the Wii U that I had the timing of my weapons down. I knew if I was using the roller I could take a specific path, get my special by a specific part of the map, and then have the ability to push forward with it. Then they change things and I am finding that all my weapons are coming up short of getting their special by just enough to piss me off. It's like the same poo poo after this update

Maybe it was just the leader board reverting to default values or something, but I had a level 1 player disconnect from my ranked game  The three of us fought admirably into overtime, though.
