Nalin posted:According to this there is exclusive gear you can only buy from the smartphone app. They touched on this on the tumblr earlier quote:It looks like the gear available in the SplatNet Gear Shop can have a different main ability attached than those purchased at the Galleria in Inkopolis.

Frankston posted:Ok, thanks. So it's worth buying whatever is available at the time? I don't know if I'd go around buying out entire inventories early on but you should absolutely pick up whatever you think looks fresh and experiment with different main abilities. As you level up stores will begin to stock more expensive gear that has more ability slots. You can always drop some super sea snails to get more slots on a lower-tier piece of gear, though.

Jonas Albrecht posted:Ohhhhhh really? The Bloop posted:I don't know. I'm honestly asking. I feel confident I read that here but some goon might have been being an idiot. I was that idiot goon. According to the official Tumblr, the ability doubler main is only available on the splatfest tee. Also stealth jumps are still visible to nearby enemy squidkids, according to the ability descriptions in the Splatfest testfire. Dr Cheeto fucked around with this message at 00:09 on Jul 21, 2017 |

As the matchmaking system gets more data you should see more balanced matches. It's still loving Friday, there's a lot of Splatoon 1 people out there who haven't played a single match yet. Splatoon 1 was extremely good for people who didn't take it seriously and there's no reason I've seen Splatoon 2 won't be.

A few updates from the official Tumblr: The current frequency of salmon runs is higher than it normally will be quote:We’ve received word that for the first three days after the launch of Splatoon 2 on Friday, July 21st, a MASSIVE number of Salmonids will be migrating toward Inkopolis. This means that the frequency of Grizzco’s part-time job offers will be increased. The Stingray special weapon is gonna get an update improving mobility and allowing users to enter squid form quote:In the Splatfest World Premiere demo, using the Sting Ray severely limited your mobility, but its mobility is being improved through an update to the game. With the new-and-improved Sting Ray, players will be able to suspend their attack by entering squid form, allowing them to reposition themselves before resuming their assault. This enables players to retreat at a moment’s notice, or find a better vantage point.

well why not posted:how do the tickets work? If I eat one and then log off, is the effect carried over? Tickets last 20 rounds, you're safe. You'll see the bonus counter in the same HUD element that keeps track of your money and snails. There is a lot that this game doesn't tell you.

jetpackhewy posted:I understand the Switch app is not all that great, it may have sync issues, but it says that I only cleared up to Sector 2 of singleplayer when I have actually beaten all levels and collected all scrolls and sardinium. This is opposed to my multiplayer stats which appear to be properly synced. It took a while to realize I had beaten Octo Valley but it eventually updated. Multiplayer matches still pop up about as quickly as they end, I can start browsing stats even before Judd and Lil' Judd finish their animations.

The vertical flick has pretty crazy range Don't try to roll fools with the carbon roller The horizontal flick is the way to murder anyone who knows you're there, rolling is best if you're being a proper ninja.

You can join on a friend who's playing turf war but you're not guranteed to be on the same side. Use discord or something if you wanna chat. The online lobby thing that integrates with the phone app kind of blows and can only be used for custom matches and salmon runs.

pokeyman posted:What specials were op in 1? A well-aimed close range inkzooka was a ohko I guess, but they were rarely well-aimed. Kraken is easy enough to get away from, falls through grates, can be pushed around, and if the eliter's head is glowing with a ready kraken you could just... not jump right on top of them? Kraken, bubbler, and inkzooka are "gently caress you" panic buttons with little counterplay. Like, it doesn't matter how advantageous your position is, as long as that Eliter's got glowing hair, you're gonna be ducking and dodging an invincible squid until it burns out. It's not great design.

Atoramos posted:nope, that was a bug that they patched (and reverted all clothes) I don't know how people are still confused about this, most everything Annie sells has a nonstandard main ability, you could check this at any time! The issue was with mains showing up on clothing types that they shouldn't. Ninja Squid should only appear on chests, but it was popping up on footwear and headgear. Stealth Jump is exclusive to footwear, but it was appearing on headgear and chests. It's important because the developers clearly want you to have to make a choice on these abilities: you can only ever take Drop Roller OR Stealth Jump, they're both exclusive to footwear.

Astro7x posted:Is there some sort of unlockable for collecting al the stuff in octo canyon? My googling couldn't find anything Collecting all the sunken scrolls gets you all the sunken scrolls. I hope you like lore! Anchovium or whatever is just an upgrade material. You might want it all if you are gonna go through and unlock all the hero replica weapons for battling, might as well make it easier and upgrade all the weapons so you can blaze through the levels a bit faster. If you're just interested in getting the story and maybe the Hero Shot Replica then you shouldn't spend too much time hunting them down.
