I'd rather read pithy dialog from internet males. It's fun to guess who will be the next zolthorg.

Also personally, that sounds alright because I have been losing a crap ton of ranked games recently and could use a nice change of pace.

I wonder what the "items" are supposed to be. Probably just extra super bonuses as mentioned above, I doubt they would leave things lying around on the map.

UGH my internet connection is crap for playing this game online and it's a really good game that I enjoy playing. Got dropped 5 times in a row before giving up... I do think I've gotten better though. I'm more regularly ranked higher in the end of the turf war matches I run and I can generally do pretty well with just about any weapon. The Sting ray seems a bit broken... it charges super fast, though on the plus I'm fairly terrible at using anything that requires good aiming. It's a pity because I quite liked using the Sloshing machine. How does one use the umbrella well? It's by far the coolest weapon, though I do find the umbrella launches just a tad slow for my liking. Also, after despising the blaster, I found the Rapid blaster to be a massive improvement, even if it's hard to get the two shots off necessary to kill someone if they know where you are. The land mines are pretty fun.

I wish they would implement some Salmon Run-specific character bonuses, like maybe being able to spend Power Eggs to upgrade your ink tank or buy a new trucker hat to carry an additional Special. Something to reward continued play within that mode alone.

Why do parents now worry about the difficulty of Nintendo games for kids, like at all Kids aren't dumb, they can figure out just about any video game thing if you just leave them with it for a while. I was playing just about any N64 game I could get my hands on just out of infancy, was able to beat them, and I wasn't The Wizard or anything

I like that there is specifically not any persistent progress in SR other than your rank meter. Keeps everyone on an equal playing field.

Dr. Fetus posted:The other thing to keep in mind is that shooting down the missile will cause the Drizzler to hide under its umbrella a lot earlier than it would have if you just left the missile alone. lmao fuckin what? why would the game punish you like that for skilled play so i guess if i can't line up the missile shot i should just leave it alone and focus the drizzler more?

Kaubocks posted:lmao fuckin what? why would the game punish you like that for skilled play You have a good 5-10 seconds from when the balloon launches and when it creates the cloud, so if you're close enough you can get a couple shots in on the drizzler before you deflect the balloon. Otherwise, the rain cloud is the only thing it can do to cause any disruption on the battlefield, so at worst you're no worse for wear. Also, it jumps to a new location after shooting two balloons which makes it an easy target while it's in the air.

Im hoping mr grizz got his hands on a rainmaker, because that would be stupid fun to use in salmon run( or maybe old weapons from splattoon 1 complete with old specials)

What if the personal item isn't actually a weapon, and one person each round has to fight salmonids with Mr. Grizz's current favorite paperback. (Although I actually am super curious what kind of weapon they'd reveal this way.)

Mr. Frizz warns you not to blab about it because if you press the screenshot button while you have the secret weapon, you're put on probation and can't Salmon Run for a month.

Mr. Grizz is a USSR era bear who was forgotten about as part of a cytogenetic experiment. It's why his office is full of old 80s tech

Mr. Grizz being a rogue Salmonid would make sense for a couple of reasons; -Its an obvious explanation for why he always talks via proxy -His inside knowledge lets him accurately predict Salmon Runs -A bear has no meaning whatsoever to inklings but its probably a powerful symbol in the Salmonid's weird warrior culture, akin to an ancient demon -Its just funny

Yeah but bears are pretty clever. They know the right places to go when salmon spawn. It's so well planned out the drat things just jump right into their open mouths. Talk about knowing a weakness.

A bear hiding in plain sight behind bear-themed paraphernalia is the funniest possibility and therefore canon.

Talk about knowing a weakness. Obligatory;  raditts posted:What incentive would there be for a salmonid to have you slaughter scores of his own kind and steal their eggs Getting filthy rich? Salmonids don't appear to have much individuality in their culture, and it revolves around breeding and killing. Despite this its implied that salmonids are smart enough to have individual desires, so its probably possible for them to gently caress off and go rogue. Plus why would Mr. Grizz need to hide being a bear? Judd is another mammal that survived the apocalypse and he's basically treated like a living deity. Its not something that would have a stigma attached to it, as opposed to being part of the psychotic fish species.
