How is rainmaker in that range, RM and CB scare me in S+X because of how much coordination is required to do well

2.3.2 is out which fixes the Arowana glitch and puts the map back in rotation.

I bought splatoon 2 today. I am prepared to jump in and also suck badly Are there any good videos on the basics of playing and not sucking? I literally know nothing about this game other than I like its art style and I want a MP shooter for my Switch. Beve Stuscemi fucked around with this message at 19:00 on Mar 14, 2018 |

Jim Silly-Balls posted:I bought splatoon 2 today. I am prepared to jump in and also suck badly Keep motion controls on and stick with them, there’s no aim assist like in most console shooters. The single player campaign is basically a tutorial, maybe play that first if you want to get used to the controls. Edit: I promise that motion controls will click at some point and you won’t want to go back; I had a friend who extensively played S1 exclusively with dual sticks and I convinced him to stick with motion for S2 and now even he agrees it’s the better control scheme.

Yeah, play a few levels of single player until you feel comfortable with the controls. When you give multiplayer a try, in any mode other than Turf War go straight for the objective. I hate it in Splat Zones when I run to the middle and start putting ink down only to get killed by all four opponents because my team mates are loving around inking alternate routes or whatever. It's like, great, we have alternate routes but now they're 20 seconds ahead you knobs.

ThatSRB2Dude is a good player to watch, and he has a pretty good set of basic weapon analysis videos that helped me out when I was starting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSY6iG5sYMc

As someone that mainly uses mid to long range shooters, I love thermal ink so much. I’m logging into the app everyday to get every piece of gear with it I see.

I recently searched the thread for how to motion controls and this video is what got the gears moving for me. Though, I'm still just doing single player to acclimate and it hasn't been without problems; I've reached the point where turning off motion controls is a hindrance. The most important tip I can gather is to only use motion to look up or down and fine aim, not for big rotations. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XloXds3GldU

Super Jumping is very good if the enemy team is wiped and your team is pressing the advantage. It is very dangerous if the enemy team is alive and fighting for the objective. Learn to identify safe flanking routes on maps and when to use them, because randoms will invariably charge down the middle one at a time and die over and over. Allies bodyblock your shots, so mind your positioning when joining a firefight. Don't forget to Booyah. If an ally is stuck in enemy ink, shooting an escape route for them is often more useful than rushing in and possibly getting yourself killed, especially if their mobility is already hindered by a splatling or the sting ray special. Squids and water don't mix. Pearl, like Callie, is actually the good one. Booyah, and Booyah back.

Along with Booyah'ing, using the Ouch! button is extremely useful to notify your team if you've been flanked

I've just been too distracted to touch Splatoon 2 for a couple of months now but for getting used to and playing with motion controls, using my keyboard gel wrist rest helped a ton both for comfort as well as precision.

And nice people will follow silly rules like "ink the spawn", meaning they were destined to lose. The more fun answer WAS Egg though. Between the fact it lets you draw dinosaurs and the hilarious misreadings of 'egg power' and the ranks ('egg' is slang for someone who hasn't realized they're transgender yet) there was no contest.
