Too much force. It's like basketball. Can't throw it so hard against the backboard and expect it to just slip in the hoop. Pull back on the stick or aim lower where the missiles come from.
Oh frick off mate.
This shit did not happen this badly or often in splat2.
They definitely changed the physics engine in 3. And STILL not fixed those c**ts.

Those are fricking fantastic outfits.
Too bad we'll only see them once a year and like 3 more times, maybe 4.
salmon run is getting boring. anyone else feel this way?
I'm still having fun >only rolled stamper ONCE this random shift
./...well..mostly fun.
grizz you homosexual.
>We fricking lost. Splatoon 3? Poolsclosed? /vg/? all dead, dying, or something even worse.
Matchmaking is trash.
Checkpoints are a mistake.
Perhaps the doomposters are right.
I hate checkpoints. freelance is now diluted even worse than it was before and instead of jumping in for a chill time and getting some superbonuses and scales I'm immediately thrust into 600VP sweaty territory. Even if I derank thats how it is when I join a pool room.

The Splatlands has created a massive lore inconsistency that they will never be able to rectify. >Octolings lost the GTW 100yrs prior to Splat1 and were all forced underground >Fast forward to Splat3 which is seven years after Splat1 >Find out that Octoling have been living there the whole time and people actually knew they weren't Inklings with 'weird hair'
So your telling me that zero Octolings lived in Inkopolis or even went to the damn city in that 100+ year period and that nobody from Inkopolis went to Splatsville despite them literally being a train ride apart?
The splatlands were entirely disconnected from the inkopolis area and the GTW, hence octolings living normally. They weren’t apart of said war or octavios army
Also hammerhead bridge is the main path connecting the splatlands to inkopolis and it only got finished as of S3
Only with Captain Three of course. She'd try to get them to settle down only for them to drag her to a random room and do unspeakably lewd things to her.
Honestly I'd say that New Year's celebrations with the NSS would probably involve Marie making sure that Captain Three, Four, Eight and Neo Three are wearing nice clothes.
It's based on New Years. something something year of the dragon. Hydra = dragon. fug = dragon. bamboo represents some japanese shit. Pencil to write in some japanese shit. Squeezer represents champagne.
Guess my alter-ego is in it for the long haul. As the dying flame of 2023 snuffs out and 2024's sun rises, I have made a few Heavensturm resolutions to myself, one of them being to get over myself and just try to get a platinum in some tough games. Also, I decided to take the Rebourne Roulette and... hoo boy, what did I do to deserve this torture? 🙁
But, I am not asking for mercy. This challenge is designed to push your limits, and even though I am in danger of having a heart attack from getting over-stressed(I am 51 years as of this writing and now taking blood pressure pills), I will give it a college try. If I fail, it's proof that I am a coward and I will never attempt this challenge again, but you can't know if you don't try, can you? 😉
So.... as we reach the midnight bell to begin 2024, here is my list of the games I will be doing for this challenge. To note: This is not being done on this account, but on my extra account that I dump all the games which had DLC trophies that I will never try to accomplish. I love the games, I could get the platinum in them, but 100%? This star will burn out and human life will go extinct before I ever attempt those special trophies. :angry:
The badges I know I will achieve during this event are Above and Beyond(as at least three games on this list have an estimate of over 100 hours), Award Winner, Brownie Points(as you will see why when you see the list), Fanboy, Fresh Start(as I just added all these games to my list and none of them have a trophy earned on them), and Rebourne Roulette, which is why I decided to do this challenge. Rebourne07 gave me the games for (1), (6) and (9) on this list.
S888f20.png
1: Grim Fandango Remastered: Rebourne07 actually suggested The Walking Dead but I really don't like zombie apocalypses. This was the other game he gave and I have played this game before on a very old account and did get the platinum in it, on the Vita. Here's to tank controls!
S553dfa.png
2: Tales of Arise. My gym trainer completed this game and really enjoyed it, even re-buying it on sale after the DLC dropped. The last Tales game I played was Tales of Symphonia on the GameCube and I know what will be expected of me - earning titles and watching skits. 300 skits.
S606abf.png
3: Ni No Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom: I've platinumed this game on an older account and really enjoyed the story. This is on the DLC Hell List because the first DLC requires you to do a very tough-mode rematch against a former boss fight where you can get one-shot, and then you unlock HARDER difficulties. Yeah, I will pay the lip service again but not the DLC service, although I know about the new combat styles they added and wonder if I could learn them without having to do the DLC stuff. Are they overpowered? Who knows? I have to play the game to find out.
S7364fb.png
4: Kingdom Hearts III. I have platinumed this game several times and enjoyed it. I understand why Re: MIND has to exist but the new boss fights soured the game for me. Still, if the EZ codes let me skip doing the stupid cooking minigames for the trophy, I am all in. 😉
S947680.png
5: Monster Hunter Rise. My gym trainer enjoyed this game as well and I did dabble in it in my last account but I didn't feel ready to tackle big beasties. Maybe now I am ready? Well, it's not too painful.
S96af83.png
6: Final Fantasy VII Remake. This is part of the Rebourne Roulette and why I will get the Brownie Points badge, as it's a Final Fantasy game. I was not into the hype and after seeing a video of someone nearly dying to Pride and Joy, I am a bit worried. But I'll try to weather through the Hard Mode.
Se5d4ed.png
7: Terraria. Well, I plan on platinuming Minecraft on this account, so why not?
S55ee21.png
8: Enter the Gungeon. This games looks neat and the concept of a rogue-like dungeon crawler filled with bullet hells is a neat concept, but it's really going to be a trial for me to clear five flawless runs for each class, including the two unlockable classes. 🙁
S599d96.png
9: Returnal. This was the final game Rebourne07 gave to me in the Roulette survey. This was another game that my gym trainer played and loved, despite the fact that there are no checkpoints.
Sbe3bf7.png
10: The Binding of Issac. I have platinumed this on an older account and I am not going to add any DLC to this as one trophy requires you to do all the challenges, and the DLC adds many more punishing challenges. Also, the only reason I did platinum this game before was due to an exploit that lets you soft-save the game so I used that exploit to save, then reload if I died. I did enjoy the game despite its gross and violent humor as the concept of getting stronger by pickups was fun.
So, as the fireworks fade into 2024, I hope to see you there and suffer alongside you all for the upcoming year. I am not going to go through these games all at once, I am going to need the entire year to get through these nightmares. See you in the new year, everyone! 😉
HAPPY NEW YEAR, MOTHERFRICKERS! Just got home with some nice hot cocoa and a song in my heart. Who knows what the new year will bring, but hopefully it'll include more fun times genociding fish with you guys. And probably playing more the regular part of the game, I should really do that more despite how mad it makes me. What I want more than anything else, though, is more info on Side Order. I must rescue octo daughter, for she is best daughter.
Firstly, happy new year!
Secondly, who the flipping frick came up with the current rotation? Seriously, this is by far one of the worst ones so far. Frustrating weapon selection with a not so great choice of a stage.
Bamboozler is literal trash, like get this thing finally out of SR asap. The pencil and Squeezer are at least somewhat useful. And the Hydra? Basically 50:50, depending if the teammate who has it has a clue how to use it in a proper way.
I mean sure, those weapons are maybe nice to kill that giant creepy flying snake better, but what's the point if I'm not even get a chance to encounter it since I'm not able to get past wave 2 or even wave 1 at all? Right now I stuck at Pro+2 (Freelance), barely manage to get up in rank since I get all the time people in my team who don't know how to use those stupid weapons.
On top of that... No one is painting anything? Like wtf is going on, this is not just a problem at the current rotation, but in the past days I noticed that more and more people don't bother anymore to paint any walls or even the ground whatsoever. They would just standing around doing nothing or just a little bit and wondering afterwards why we are drowning in enemy ink so fast. People, please paint ffs!
has the NDF's budget increased for the shilling campaign for this port after the massive failure that was the latest zelda one?
port?
>I fricking hate flyfish
the frick are you on moron?
Too much force. It's like basketball. Can't throw it so hard against the backboard and expect it to just slip in the hoop. Pull back on the stick or aim lower where the missiles come from.
Oh frick off mate.
This shit did not happen this badly or often in splat2.
They definitely changed the physics engine in 3. And STILL not fixed those c**ts.
You didnt join the room
I'm playing this open rotation then gotta leave for new years stuff.
Who is the first anon you will name drop this year?
Oh, you know. The usual
Literally me in the lobby.
About to start my first shift of the new year.
>three attempts
>worst outing yet
I don't think its going to happen.
salmon run is getting boring. anyone else feel this way?
yeah
Sort of. I just get my capsules and king wave then frick off unless it's a fun rotation.
Maybe stop cliquegaygin and gatekeeping
Get fricked homosexual
Learn to play with other people, homosexual
Hmmm.. no
Yeah, I got hit with burnout hard in the middle of December.
Thank for joining my scrub room D. Didn't want to drag ya down anymore.
its fine i didnt mind
>lost rank up battle
>you can attempt another one
Eh? First time that's happened.
If you overshoot the threshold by enough points, sometimes you still have enough to do a 2nd one right away.
Neat. I just need to wait for a better rotation and not one so friendly to chargers and splatlings.
https://twitter.com/SplatoonJP/status/1741625291888615893?t=5Pfb2qzcC_l1AwMtjvvoJg
Shiver and Frye SEXOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
shiver here has brightened my mood up
God I have to pick shiver now
c-cute
Happy New Year to my favorite clique
I just want a happy new year from Harmony
>https://twitter.com/SplatoonJP/status/1741625291888615893?t=5Pfb2qzcC_l1AwMtjvvoJg
Those are fricking fantastic outfits.
Too bad we'll only see them once a year and like 3 more times, maybe 4.
I'm still having fun
>only rolled stamper ONCE this random shift
./...well..mostly fun.
grizz you homosexual.
Why's Shiver's outfit so hot?
Frye is precious. Her and Callie are the best because they are very cute rather than sensual or a b***h.
Happy New Year pool!
Happy New Year !
Top tier weapon with absurd range but it come at the cost of sacrificing your right hand
Thoughts on squezzer?
We fricking lost. Splatoon 3? Poolsclosed? /vg/? all dead, dying, or something even worse.
It new years eve what do you expect moron?
No, not just today. For the past month
>We fricking lost. Splatoon 3? Poolsclosed? /vg/? all dead, dying, or something even worse.
Matchmaking is trash.
Checkpoints are a mistake.
Perhaps the doomposters are right.
I hate checkpoints. freelance is now diluted even worse than it was before and instead of jumping in for a chill time and getting some superbonuses and scales I'm immediately thrust into 600VP sweaty territory. Even if I derank thats how it is when I join a pool room.
>get explosher
>0 flyfish
>infinite big shots
Fresh!
So two more green rots then we get another gold rotty? Seems like there is always 5 greens between each gold ever since the first one
Suicides at rotation anyone?
>last player alive
>only dead teammate near me is under a slammin lid's forcefield
>stays under it(????????????) and i die before i can revive him
FRICKING
BRAINDEAD FREELANCER DOGSHIT
>only dead teammate near me is under a slammin lid's forcefield
Then destroy it moron
Soul tierlist:
Splatoon 1 > Splatoon 3 > Shit > Splatoon 2
>here's your xtrawave, bro
Boris really is the easiest king, huh?
I see that donkeygong guy all the time
After playing this thing for a single day I am completely convinced it is overpowered as frick. You don't even need to try to get kills with it.
Sorry, I shouldn't have gone for the Big Shots.
Never apologize for being yourself
The Splatlands has created a massive lore inconsistency that they will never be able to rectify.
>Octolings lost the GTW 100yrs prior to Splat1 and were all forced underground
>Fast forward to Splat3 which is seven years after Splat1
>Find out that Octoling have been living there the whole time and people actually knew they weren't Inklings with 'weird hair'
So your telling me that zero Octolings lived in Inkopolis or even went to the damn city in that 100+ year period and that nobody from Inkopolis went to Splatsville despite them literally being a train ride apart?
The splatlands were entirely disconnected from the inkopolis area and the GTW, hence octolings living normally. They weren’t apart of said war or octavios army
Also hammerhead bridge is the main path connecting the splatlands to inkopolis and it only got finished as of S3
The Hammerhead Bridge isn't the only way there though. The train line cutting through the Valley would have been there since before the GTW.
And on top of that, in Inkopolis they didn't even think Octolings still existed. That's why they thought they were just Inklings in Splat2
Happy new year poolsclosed in the east coast eating wheat toast
Great games everyone, nice to end it on a gold. I really need some sleep now. I hope everyone here had a great start into the new year.
GGs, happy new year!
GGs, nice gold, happy new year, and stay fresh
I'd imagine going to a New Year's party with Callie and Marie would involve a lot of drunken stories and shenanigans.
and sex
Only with Captain Three of course. She'd try to get them to settle down only for them to drag her to a random room and do unspeakably lewd things to her.
Captain 3 (male)
He's the sub
>Captain 3 (male)
I honestly forgot I drew this but it makes me happy someone saved it
Honestly I'd say that New Year's celebrations with the NSS would probably involve Marie making sure that Captain Three, Four, Eight and Neo Three are wearing nice clothes.
I want this.
This need to be the next ranked mode.
Post squids
One of these quids is not like the other, one of these squids is an octopus
This art style just screams “homosexual.” I bet money that they do weird gay shit
>2 splats
>#1 Overall Splatter
Going to make a salmon room at rotation
That's the worst rotation in recent memory
It's based on New Years. something something year of the dragon. Hydra = dragon. fug = dragon. bamboo represents some japanese shit. Pencil to write in some japanese shit. Squeezer represents champagne.
but why spawning grounds
390/400, no badge for me. Happy New Year.
I'm making sure not to play so soon because I don't want to get called out for being a loser and playing on new years
If you post here, they already know. Either implement change or be a happy loser.
>almost failed a wave 1 mudmouth
rip Japan
is laphi ok
I'll do one more king
jesus christ frick the holidays
literal 60 IQ average atm
how is this rotation?
nta but i saw the one more player warning 4 times in one shift
Guess i'll have to freelance and see

>8 shifts
>got high tide 13 times within that
thats not very nice of you game
The hell did working with Callie and Marie do to her?
Alright I'm done GG's
Nice games and happy new year.

Not a fan of this rotation

Soup?

Ahh, I see. Yeah, it sucks for everything but fug deletion. But I'm tempted to play more to get 4 slot hacker jacket...
Unfortunately I need my 60,000p for this rotation
I believe in you
Happy homosexual year

Happy stupid b***h year stupid b***h. KYS KYS KYS KYS KYS
Remember when we used to think this game would be fun forever
It wasn’t fun at any point. The game design made it nearly impossible to have fun
Reminder that it's in your best interest to avoid any rooms Str1d3r is in.

Dude a lot of youngsters probably just got the game for Christmas.
If they did the game will be returned in a few days because it’s shit, so don’t worry. All 40 (lol) of you can go back to jerking off
Anyone up for salmon in 10 minutes?
>wave 3 glowflies 2 times in a row
man i just want to finish a shift
these weapons can't deal with them
