The fictional amounts of fictional discrimination of being a fictional character in a fictional setting?..

In a fictional future ruined by fictional global warming caused by fictional humans. It's a good thing fiction never reflects reality.

Also, it makes it so you actually have people to play against, since everyone will be online at the same time.

Wow did you notice Callie and Marie were never in agreement about the splatfest theme? It's almost like they were just doing their job and not really giving their personal opinion!

sometimes, you gotta tell family that they're wrong

I missed the testfires earlier in the year because I didn't have a Switch yet, did you have Inkopolis Square access then?

Testfires never gave you access, even on the Wii U. It was just tutorial and lobby.

It's a fair question, considering ARMS and Mario Kart 8DX both had 2P Online.

I think Splatoon requires taking in a lot of on-screen information, and having half of it cut off in favor of a second player would be detrimental to play. There's no way they didn't experiment with it at least once in development.

I own a Splatoon cookie cutter, for example.

Why? The .52 GAL kicks all sorts of rear end and is really well balanced. If you get the jump on me i'm dead.

If that gun is on the map, I will 100% die to it, regardless of how I'm playing and I do not understand why. It was the same way in Splatoon 1. It is my bane.

No poo poo. But why are you assuming people who don't own the console are even buying it :psyduck:

There were more copies of BotW sold than there were Switches for a while.

I think that Splatoon will probably end up the same way to some degree.

I don't care how good or bad the aerospray is I'm just utterly sick of seeing it everywhere. There's like 30 weapons in this game and half the playerbase uses that shiny piece of junk.


Fair enough, though I've yet to see anyone actually using them still.

I love this phase. I remember experiencing this feeling in Splatoon 1. Wait until everyone gets the gold Aerospray RG!

I don't understand matchmaking sometimes. Yes, have one team consist of B-s and the other team consist entirely of B+s. That's a fair matchup. :psyduck:

I believe it compensates uneven matchmaking with win-loss points. It did in Splatoon 1.

That's what I was thinking, but in rainmaker what gets you the points? If you look at the scoreboard here

How could I be bottom based in points? I just want to know if I'm doing it wrong, I thought I was being helpful protecting the rainmaker carrier, clearing paths etc

Points are inked turf, so it still displays by Turf War rules, despite not really mattering.

Dragons fall under the "scalie" subset of furrykin. I looked it up, and apparently there are cephalopod subsets, but I don't think they have specific names.

The only roller I know that requires two hits is the Carbon Roller, and if you're getting one-shots with it on touch, it's because they had already taken damage.
