Tenta Missiles are a goddamn riot on Port Mackerel, you don't have to backtrack that far to get the whole enemy team in your sights, and you can usually scoot back forward and pressure at least one of them when they're coming down.

Is your router/wifi modem using 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz bandwidth? Switch supports the latter which might help especially if the distance between your console and router is huge or blocked by walls or whatever.

5GHz is for when you see a zillion networks or are close to the router, 2.4GHz is better for distance and walls.

For when nothing but the best will do, Switch supports USB wired network adapters.

Nice! One thing that the lower levels don't have is some of the more interesting events like Mothership and Glowflies, but those events tend to require a lot of coördination, and that can be hard to get with randos.

Maybe I'm just not taking this game seriously enough, but I don't really get why so many people hate pretty much all of the shifty stations. I haven't had any real beef with any of them so far, and generally enjoyed the experience since it's something new every time.

Because you're reading a thread in a gaming forum, and a lot of people think complaining about games makes them good at games.

Why even give Europe food-centric Splatfests. They gently caress it up every time.

Two possible takes:

  • It's a game for children and childrens' sense of taste is underdeveloped
  • Have you eaten European food? It can be very dubious

Of course it did. A 99% chicken/1% dinosaur became a 100% chicken. This is because the chickasaur was only a couple of junk-DNA strands shy of being a proper chicken. It probably ate the wrong birdseed, fell into a neanderthal's stem cell research cave, or drank its own piss. This gave the almost-bird the homeopathic kick it needed to go full-chicken before it laid its egg

It’s actually because two proto-chickens FUCKED.

Yeah especially with how awful it is to draw on that thing. A lot of people use their computers and transfer it using an arduino thingy to automatically draw it pixel by pixel. That's what I'd do.

If you push one stick all the way up and the other all the way down you pitch shift everything above the filter on the flange and it’s just the percussion left.

How do you manage discord and switch audio at the same time?

I use just normal TV/Switch speakers for the switch, and a single AirPod for discord. The AirPods are pretty good at ambient noise cancellation, and I can charge one in the case slightly faster than one runs down doing constant audio.

I haven't played much (level 5) but I'm wondering two things: when do you unlock lobby banners and how the gently caress can so many people draw all this cute/cool stuff? I can barely manage stick figures

1) Just find the red postbox on the left side of the lobby, near Marie.
2) A stylus helps a lot. The Apple Pencil doesn't work, but cheap styluses do. Some people use a Teensy with firmware that draws out the picture, but that's bullshit imo. Art is hard and being bad at it is okay.
