When has an adrenaline fiend ever been referred to as a drug addict? They’re not
taking drugs, they’re just into extreme shit. Calling Harmony a drug addict makes zero sense when she canonically generates her own neurotoxins. She doesnt have a say in the matter, less so than even so called adrenaline junkies.
It’s not easy to be a good charger player though. They have to be mean and keep you dead or else they get rushed down. If they miss one shot and that could cost them their life. Try and play a charger and you’ll see how they make it look easy.

Sniping in Splatoon is a lot harder than most games due to how erratic the movement is in Splatoon and the complete lack of aim assist. I can nail fags in other games all day but getting 8-10 splats is an accomplishment for me with a Charger.
I tried learning charger. I didn't realize how small player hitboxes are; the slightest twitch will make me miss a shot. And that's on the shitty training dummies.
Havent seen this brought up but one of the changes in the recent update is that they increased the catalogue exp bonus from the closeout period of a season (the final week of the season) from 1.2X to 1.5X. Not a huge change but it should help some of the stragglers finish their catalogue a little easier. So if you need to pick a time to grind, pick that final week. Splatfests as usual give you increased catty exp so dont miss that either.
We know it's on the Sorella Undercover Brella, but they're definitely putting it on at least one other kit. I'm thinking the Foil Squeezer; it had Bubble Blower in S2, and this seems to have a similar defensive utility.
This is a big facet I haven’t seen discussed. There’re going to be a ton of instances where teammates annoy each other with it. Probably the only special where that’s a real concern
Maybe the screen also moves forward? I'd have to think so otherwise all it does is either make the enemy team take a different route, or it kills any combat for a bit.
>another route >Splatoon 3 lol. But really, it won’t necessarily halt combat, but it will be an advantage pushing or defending the objective as a deterrent and obfuscation. It’s interesting for sure. It feels like it has huge variance in its potential value, as well as being hard to objectively determine how useful it was after the fact. I could see it taking a while to pick up popularity, even if it is good
I could see it being pretty useful for being placed on the outer edge of a splatzone, or perhaps on the edge of your clam basket to prevent a push. Definitely more of a defensive tool, I’ll be interested to see how it turns out. Most of these new specials have been undertuned when being debuted, so I dont expect it to be too strong at first, and then will get some buffs like chumps and kraken have
It’s be neat if this was on tent, just because they look so similar. But it would also be cool to release the shield from behind the screen and have unexpected cover the enemies don’t know about
It would also fuck with the game’s performance as well with how the game hits 10fps when there are too many bosses on screen, with fishsticks apparently being a heavy contributor to slowdown. Would introduce a whole new slew of glitches and bugs that I doubt the devs want to have to deal with right now. I dont expect any new boss salmonid to be added, just another king if that. Next game might shake up the formula to SR a bit with how popular it’s proven to be
I already know I'll hate the new special, I can't stand visual impairment shit in shooter. When are they gonna add a flashbang sub that makes a huge ink splatter across your screen
>Sweater reference RotM/when you touch the fuzzy ink
If all that went down in the story mode exclusively then how did that information manage to reach the public where there’s a sweater designed based on it unless it’s Cuttlegear branded
>Implying the existence of Fuzzy Ooze outside of the Crater/Alterna >Further implying a possible Grizz Contingency
Is that what Lil Judd is working on then?
>new king is a giant Maw >next it'll be a King Scrapper that drives around the map at mach 5 speeds >next it'll be a King Stinger that's 20 miles tall and nukes you with an orbital death laser
After this we’ve got two more seasons. I dont expect any meaningful content beyond third weapon kits and maybe some gear after that. The king “pattern” hasnt even held to every other season. At best we’ll get one more but it’s no guarantee
If the next console is backwards compatible I could see them extending support a bit, even if it's not major stuff like catalogs. They're gonna need games to drive subscription for the paid online.
A new Splatoon will come out for the new console, just like Splatoon 2 did for the switch.
There’s not going to be anything big added except maybe some splatfests? They’ll be working on the next game. >b-b-b-but!
They’ll be working on the next game. I have not seen a SINGLE argument explaining why they wouldnt be pushing out the next game ASAP.
I’ll repeat it as many times as it needs to be said. We are getting a new Splatoon, I dont know why people think that wont happen. In fact I wish they would explain it, but they never do beyond “but animal crossing!”
How about the fact that people already feel burned by the sparse updates this game already has, and them going "too bad, Splatoon 4" would really burn them?
I don't know the data, but are 3's legs as good as 2's were? People might be getting sick of things
>How about the fact that people already feel burned by the blah blah blah…
Sorry I dont think they can hear you over the sound of the amount of money being printed for a new Splatoon game on a new console. Splat 3 broke sales records and made a fuck ton of money in a short amount of time. There is no sign of anyone being burned. When people stop buying the games, maybe they’ll stop rushing them out. With a game like Splatoon it’s one you want to get out as early on the system’s lifespan as possible, it’s one of Nintendo’s most profitable IPs right now and is their equivalent of a Call of Duty series. It is inevitable and theyre piss easy to rush out in a short time. Nobody is burned, they WILL buy it and it will break even more sales records the next time.
You’re answering question with a question. Do the legs of splat 3 even matter? I dont think we have enough sales data to know, but the Switch is wrapping up. They made their money and it was a resounding success having sold more than 10M in three months. That’s huge. Regardless of how well the game keeps selling, it’s already a huge success. It does not need to sell anymore, because the Switch is at the end of its life and a new Splatoon will be coming very, very soon, because why WOULDNT it? (the original question that nobody seems to be able to answer)
because splatoon is like a weak little babby compared to MK and a new mario kart could easily be a launch game and would drive more NSO subs. So would an enhance port of ultimate.
Your absolute confidence is pretty misplaced, we really have no idea what they'll do.
I’ll repeat it as many times as it needs to be said. We are getting a new Splatoon, I dont know why people think that wont happen. In fact I wish they would explain it, but they never do beyond “but animal crossing!”
And I take it we’ll be getting a Mario Wonder Deluxe, since we’re being patternfags and not realizing that the Wii U being a failure caused atypical development cycles
I think whatever the new 3D mario game they’re working on will likely be a launch title for the next system. I think there’s probably a few big titles brewing under the hood as all we’re getting this year is smaller scale games and remakes.
But with Splatoon one thing wont change: the next game will have heavy asset reuse and will be barren on release, because that’s how they pump these games out on a two year timeframe. Also the backwards compatibility argument doesnt really apply to Splatoon because it’s a game as a service. It’s not like Smash bros or Mario Kart where you can have one big DLC released every 6 months with nothing in between. It needs constant events every month, and content added on a semi regular basis. I just dont foresee Splatoon 3’s support to be fluffed out in a meaningful way beyond the usual post-support window. A “deluxe” version of Splatoon 3 would also make no sense. They dont release complete Splatoon games, that’s the whole point. They release it empty and fill it out over time with new content to keep people engaged.
No one said the next game won’t have a bunch of asset reuse or said there would be a “deluxe” version. Quit talking around the issue. Your confidence that they wouldn’t extend support for 3 is based purely on patternhomosexualry that ignores the complicating factors of the Wii U and Switch

So why are you still ducking the initial question?
Why WOULDNT they get it out as soon possible? It would be way more profitable than just extending support for Splat 3. and it really, really wouldnt take that much resources to have a new game ready by launch window. Why WOULDNT they rush it out as soon as possible if the games are easy to churn out and print money?

>why are you ducking a question I never asked
Moron. But a combination of avoiding franchise fatigue and having the developers work on other properties. May as well ask why didn’t just make New Super Mario Bros Switch instead of Wonder. Returns will diminish, and going from a fairly new release on a hugely popular console to a quick turnaround on one with a much lower install base is foolish. Especially when that dev team could be pumping out a system seller like a new Animal Crossing

They have yet diminish for Splatoon.
You’re also leaving out the point that Splatoon is THE big motivator to keep people subscribed to Nintendo Online service, being Nintendo’s main online focused game. They have no other game that is so online dependent than Splatoon. They will want to get people enrolled to Nintendo Online on the new system ASAP.

>system seller like a new Animal Crossing
The only time that was ever true was when everyone was put on lockdown and was desperate for a social simulation game. Historically, animal crossing has not been system seller.
AC:NH is the exception, and those games take more development time than a Splatoon game. They could afford to wait until 2020 to release new horizons, three years into the console’s life. They did not wait to release Splatoon 2 in 2017 and they did not wait long after Animal Crossing to release just two years later in 2022.

Oh yeah and let’s not forget Animal Crossing New Horizons actually suffered multiple delays. And the only animal crossing game we got on the Wii U was the consolation known as Amiibo Festival, apprently because they were unable to get a real HD animal crossing ready in time before the Wii U croaked.

Splatoon on the Wii U sold 5 Mil in a very short time. That’s like a 40% install base for a new IP. It was a major success and it’s no wonder they wanted to try and recreate that success on the Switch, which they werent sure was going to save them from the Wii U or not. The Switch as a whole was a big gamble, nobody expected it to be as successful as it was. Splat 2 ended up being a great success for the console, as did Splat 3. Maybe they werent sure it’d be a system seller then, but they knew it had a good chance of being popular with how well Splatoon sold on the failure known as Wii U. And now they definitely know how big Splatoon is so why wouldnt they try to recreate the success of the previous games? Japan will eat that shit up and they know it.

>biggest success for the franchise still barely outsold the the 3DS entry of Animal Crossing, despite the increased install base
Ah yes, what a great point. You can wave your hands as much as you want, but AC’s sales were already increasing and would have outsold Splatoon by many millions, even without covid
Why does the game insist on matching me with the best glue eaters the world has ever known while matching me against X rank badges? This dumb motherfucker stole the rainmaker at the last second so I got a wipeout for us and he fucking stands there with his dick in hand WAITING FOR US TO RESPAWN even though the other team had a single point lead and we were in overtime. How the hell do these retards get this high of a rank?

You are way too single minded about zerg rushing. I know that’s what you’re kitted out for, but you’re forcing it way too often. You even did it with the rainmaker when you needed a more sustained push. Pick and choose when you’re going to go in. You have a sub that can displace at long range. cooler is amazing at team support. Try to build it up more often and share it with your teammates instead of rushing in to die, make your respawn longer and lose special charge. Consider stalling the enemy push with a fizzy to allow your teammates to get back to the action instead of instantly zerging every time. The best time to dive is when your team is juiced up and distracting the enemy, especially if you can help secure an initial pick with a fizzy. Help to facilitate pick those moments

Too much brute forcing honestly. It might work at lower ranks and you probably got bat habits from it but past that you're gonna need some awareness of the state of the game to know what to do and when to do it.
Spam more fizzy bombs, look for kills or at least a trade with tacticooler buff because if you die it's not a big deal and share it with others as much as you can. Your weapon is a great support with these two tools, use them more.

No problem. Honestly, rainmaker is not that easy to play with randoms because like clam you have to work together to push the objective. Tower control and splat zones have more solo carry potential but there's more stomps in these modes.
What can help you is if you can find replays of the weapon you're using or even a good X-rank player using it in the mode you're playing and posting his matches on YouTube.
I fucking hate series. I want to wring the neck of whoever thought it was a good idea to derank people every season and make X battle a temporary unlock.
Lol try guessing a million other names, maybe you’ll get it right one day homosexual. Are you still that mindbroken over being squidbagged? Seek professional help.
He already explained it before. Basically he got squidbagged during a big run and it apparently cost him a high score something silly like that and the guy could never let it go. Genuine mental illness.
the new season trailer is making me think that they might start putting in more effort and support might be extended
its stupid to think such but I can hope
I don't think Shiver and Harmony would have as good a dynamic as Shiver and Frye
Next game they should just have all of ABXY be the "idol group" so the 4 autism can be sated, and have them split into two teams of two taking sides for each splatfest
Of course then whatever team Harmony is on would probably sweep like Shiver does right now, unfortunately
>deep cut amiibo drop right before splatfest
I was gonna call this stupid but then I remembered you need to stupidly grind matches for the amiibo to give you gear so it's whatever I guess
Hey, it’s that tourney anon from last thread. Nintendo released a new tournament creator for the app and I wanna try giving it a test run to get a better idea of how it works and if it could have use
If any anons are interested in participating I could set up a small tourney for next week. Can give the tournament manager a run through and make for good practice
Considering maybe the 25th or 26th at 2pm PST, sometime on the weekend. Wanna see if there’s any interest first before jumping in alongside getting an idea of what time would be best
Was not expecting them to lean into the Harmony popularity like that. At least they finally capitalized on a good idea for once. The awkward little animations were cute. I love the idea of the new stage being a ramen shop, but who knows how good it'll be. I'm at least happy to see Bluefin back, but hope they don't ruin it. Don't know how to feel about lifts being put in. Most of the new gear looks nice, it bodes well for FrostyFest. But I'm still prepared for them to once again have nothing new in the shops. Overall, the update seems like it could go either good or bad depending on the execution. But hey, Chirpy Chips is back with great music so that's fantastic. Maybe I'll finally be able to not call them Chirpy Chirps now.
What the FUCK was that new king, though? Looks like Mega Fug or something. Can't wait to listen to its terror-inducing roar like fug got. Octo daughter best daughter.
Went through it frame by frame. Not 100% certain, but it seem sure as hell seems like it bursts out of the ground like a goddamn Deviljho or some other unholy terror. Makes me wonder if you can deal massive damage by having all 4 players through a bomb at once.
New stage seems pretty varied in its layout and has inkable walls, so it’s shaping up to look fairly solid. Bluefin didn’t go unscathed, but time will tell if the changes are a positive or not
As for the harmony focus it’s cute but means they’ve skimped out on a lot of stuff that would normally be shown like tableturf cards, so they might have very little to provide. Only 8 new weapons isn’t a good look either, less than previous seasons. Not to mention the cephs featured all only have 1-2 new gear similar to last season, so it’s looking to be like that again with only half a catalog and rerunning old chill season content
Then again we’ve yet to get anything in the way of twitter updates so they may have some stuff in their back pocket to share, but yea either we’ll get a solid update or something even smaller than the last
With the way the multiplayer updates have been, I'm leaning more towards smaller. There is so fucking much to put in, but they keep making the updates tinier in terms of content. What the fuck is their major malfunction, 2 did not feel this cursed. I'm at least happy that salmon run keeps getting new shit, buffs, and whatnot.
The studio is divided into normal updates/Side Order/probably a new Animal Crossing/possibly a Splatoon 4
It's not surprising, but I hope the last one isn't being worked on yet

Fair enough, then. The 3-pack can be imported by us burgers, but doing so was more expensive than just getting them separately from a retailer or off Nintendo's website. Before shipping, no less. Now that even Nintendo's store is sold out, it seems to be the best option for those that missed them.

Legitimately surprised this is the first time I've seen someone do this. Or maybe someone already has and I missed it.
Course when I'm not playing, you niggas get gold. Oh well, I"m still happy with the silvers. Slow but steady climb towards the banner.
I also got gold before you joined
167 gold scales.
I have184
I mean the joe trophy will probably happen next next big run I think, probably just didn't want the new king potentially spoiled by datamine and weren't certain when it would be officially revealed when making that recent patch
>got hydra for coho
Melted that summabitch like a stick of butter. No golds, but I'll happily take all these silvers. Thanks for the boss fights. Really looking forward to what the new king has in store for us.
How can I be in professional +3 and nobody even communicate a single time in the round? Why am I the only one going “This way!” when I see a goldie it’s very frustrating. Why are you people even playing if you’re not gonna communicate… that one round where you have to shoot the thing to get the goalie to come out and nobody is saying it when they get it so I’m like where the fuck are they running around the map trying to find them because I hear the ding It is a waste of time.
A lot of people just play and hope for the best, not really trying to think and assume other players will pick up the slack. it's a kid's game after all
Huh? I almost never communicate shit except "Booyah" when somebody does something cool or does some good teamwork. Most people I play with have good enough awareness to know where it's at without anybody saying anything
I mean the joe trophy will probably happen next next big run I think, probably just didn't want the new king potentially spoiled by datamine and weren't certain when it would be officially revealed when making that recent patch
lmao if it's actually joe and not a google translate error it's definitely getting changed in english, that said joe's a fucking hilarious name so I'm gonna keep calling him that like how I call coho fatfuck and horo fug
so if i understand this correctly, if i lick harmonys drool ill go on a cosmic journey. is that right?
More like you'll go into anaphylactic shock
C-can you imagine what a blowjob from her would do to you? I would risk it all for that experience
Total Parukosimp victory.
you ARE working for your shiny gold coho badge before the 3rd king arrives right?
I don't even have silver boss badges
oh god i'm so behind
I only play for the reward quota
I'm only at 1838 kings
Fuck no!
IM NOT A STUPID ANNOYING homosexual LIKE YOU, SO NO. have a nice day
I still only have silver coho badge though I just play for dailies
Am I gonna make it?
What a cute retard
>2nd thread created 12 minutes after the other
Idiot
tfw no sticc legs boneless retard gf
she is venomous you retard
You're a retard if you still care about the game except salmon run
Bad take
But I like Tower Control and Rainmaker.
bros I fucked up my hand I can't play this weekend
The fuck did do you to it Gankerro? You gotta keep your hands in working order in general.
>nintendo glorifying a drug addict
How is she an addict when it’s literally her own body producing the neurotoxin? Fuck off you chud
what about adrenaline junkies?
When has an adrenaline fiend ever been referred to as a drug addict? They’re not
taking drugs, they’re just into extreme shit. Calling Harmony a drug addict makes zero sense when she canonically generates her own neurotoxins. She doesnt have a say in the matter, less so than even so called adrenaline junkies.
That's like calling someone an alcoholic for having auto-brewery syndrome
She is still too high to find her way out of the store, yet is able to record a hit single?
most masculine weyyo
Can't wait for Yoko to be running the hat store in Splatoon 4
Feel like third kits are pretty much inevitable, that shit takes next to no development resources
Third kits will likely come after the official support window wraps up, which tends to be the case based on previous Splatoons
Yeah that was my thought. They could likely drop them in bigger sets too considering that they won't be busy making other content like maps and shit.
would be funny if Harmony opens the next live concert
it would be funny if harmony just became real lol
only takes the end of humanity
not a high price
do the frye socks leave footprints or is it a letdown like the kick dampeners?
Ask /ink/, they’re experts on that kind of stuff
So if trends hold we only have two more new maps coming lads, what are we getting
Charger Mains are mean and I don't like them.
It’s not easy to be a good charger player though. They have to be mean and keep you dead or else they get rushed down. If they miss one shot and that could cost them their life. Try and play a charger and you’ll see how they make it look easy.
Sniping in Splatoon is a lot harder than most games due to how erratic the movement is in Splatoon and the complete lack of aim assist. I can nail fags in other games all day but getting 8-10 splats is an accomplishment for me with a Charger.
I tried learning charger. I didn't realize how small player hitboxes are; the slightest twitch will make me miss a shot. And that's on the shitty training dummies.
Shiver sexo amiibo coming tomorrow
Mine is arriving next week but I wasnt expecting same day shipping or anything, I can wait

SKILL ISSUE
lol
I'm surprised they did this considering that meme is half a decade old by now
The whole video feels like an ancient shitpost
i really wish we could get her hat and shoes
with all the love harmonys gotten across all three games i’d be genuinely surprised if she doesn’t get an amiibo eventually
Havent seen this brought up but one of the changes in the recent update is that they increased the catalogue exp bonus from the closeout period of a season (the final week of the season) from 1.2X to 1.5X. Not a huge change but it should help some of the stragglers finish their catalogue a little easier. So if you need to pick a time to grind, pick that final week. Splatfests as usual give you increased catty exp so dont miss that either.
What’s the splatfest bonus?
the catalog xp bonus you get from winning matches during a splatfest
it’s a 1.2X multiplier I believe
Thank you
Dont forget to get your daily win bonus, that’s a free level
But Timmy, WHY would bring the Gold Aerospray into Rainmaker?
And only get 4-11?
sex with harmony
Harmony should replace Frye.
>still 3 months away from more Pearl
HURRY THE FUCK UP
You can wait a bit longer.
Discuss the new special. What weapons would you want it on? Do you like it? Do you think it will see a lot of use?
We know it's on the Sorella Undercover Brella, but they're definitely putting it on at least one other kit. I'm thinking the Foil Squeezer; it had Bubble Blower in S2, and this seems to have a similar defensive utility.
Looks like it also blocks my team's sight. Not a fan if that's true.
This is a big facet I haven’t seen discussed. There’re going to be a ton of instances where teammates annoy each other with it. Probably the only special where that’s a real concern
Maybe the screen also moves forward? I'd have to think so otherwise all it does is either make the enemy team take a different route, or it kills any combat for a bit.
it does move forward, you can see it move in the trailer briefly
it’s very slow though
Enemy team could probably also shoot it till it disappears thinking on it.
>another route
>Splatoon 3 lol. But really, it won’t necessarily halt combat, but it will be an advantage pushing or defending the objective as a deterrent and obfuscation. It’s interesting for sure. It feels like it has huge variance in its potential value, as well as being hard to objectively determine how useful it was after the fact. I could see it taking a while to pick up popularity, even if it is good
i have a feeling this will be weak and non threatning like super chumps were
I could see it being pretty useful for being placed on the outer edge of a splatzone, or perhaps on the edge of your clam basket to prevent a push. Definitely more of a defensive tool, I’ll be interested to see how it turns out. Most of these new specials have been undertuned when being debuted, so I dont expect it to be too strong at first, and then will get some buffs like chumps and kraken have
It’s be neat if this was on tent, just because they look so similar. But it would also be cool to release the shield from behind the screen and have unexpected cover the enemies don’t know about
What does it even do?
why dont we get like a new salmonid?
just make a mini horrorboros or something that flies around and shoots mini explosions
adding an actual boss would fuck with the balance in too many ways to quantify
well king coho is just a fuckin cohock, and the new boss is just gonna be a giant maw, im just going off that.
When are we getting the King Fishstick?
>King Fishstick
>Places an entire building on the map and rains down bombs at a high rate from the windows
Kino but also scary
It would also fuck with the game’s performance as well with how the game hits 10fps when there are too many bosses on screen, with fishsticks apparently being a heavy contributor to slowdown. Would introduce a whole new slew of glitches and bugs that I doubt the devs want to have to deal with right now. I dont expect any new boss salmonid to be added, just another king if that. Next game might shake up the formula to SR a bit with how popular it’s proven to be
Would you trade:
-removal of fish sticks to boost game performance
for
-double flyfish
I know a bad deal when I see one. Quadruple flyfish or no deal.
where the hell is the kit reveal for today?
don't tell me 5pm is gonna become the norm for twitter drops...
in 15 minutes maybe if they're going with a new schedule like the trailer drop
I now have all the tableturf cards.
Good job!
Thank you anon
Always booyah when someone dies in an embarrassing way
i like how the propeller platform on marooners just stops working when its high tide, forced to just stand down there while squids laugh at me..
I already know I'll hate the new special, I can't stand visual impairment shit in shooter. When are they gonna add a flashbang sub that makes a huge ink splatter across your screen
what weapon does Harmony use?
>no info drop
it's over...
I told you guys it will be next week. It’s splatfest time
Look how happy this bastard is. What level in the catalogue will the sweater be?
50, probably
the last 50 levels will be repeat gear
Catalogue lvl 50 or lower, because beyond that it will be all the returning gear from the last chill catalogue
>Sweater reference RotM/when you touch the fuzzy ink
If all that went down in the story mode exclusively then how did that information manage to reach the public where there’s a sweater designed based on it unless it’s Cuttlegear branded
You think the three retards can be trusted with confidential information?
callie and marie probably got drunk and told some people about it backstage
Not only that, but it's not canon when your character touches the ooze, so they had to have seen some other inkling get fuzz'd at some point
>Implying the existence of Fuzzy Ooze outside of the Crater/Alterna
>Further implying a possible Grizz Contingency
Is that what Lil Judd is working on then?
Do you think his girlfriend got him that sweater?
>girlfriend
boykisser bought him that sweater
Cute
Ain't played this game since... Last... October. Did they ever add any new music?
Allot
they added the best band with the cutest band member
yes
there's been 2-3 new songs every season as of sizzle '23
>every season since sizzle '23
technically fresh season since we got liquid sunshine.
Yep, and they’re about to add more.
>new king is a giant Maw
>next it'll be a King Scrapper that drives around the map at mach 5 speeds
>next it'll be a King Stinger that's 20 miles tall and nukes you with an orbital death laser
>implying we’ll get two more
One at best. Big Maws might be the last as far as we know.
game's probably gonna wrap up development by next year a season or two after the DLC, so it's not too farfetched to say we'll get maybe one more king
After this we’ve got two more seasons. I dont expect any meaningful content beyond third weapon kits and maybe some gear after that. The king “pattern” hasnt even held to every other season. At best we’ll get one more but it’s no guarantee
I would do anything to be a squid
If the next console is backwards compatible I could see them extending support a bit, even if it's not major stuff like catalogs. They're gonna need games to drive subscription for the paid online.
A new Splatoon will come out for the new console, just like Splatoon 2 did for the switch.
There’s not going to be anything big added except maybe some splatfests? They’ll be working on the next game.
>b-b-b-but!
They’ll be working on the next game. I have not seen a SINGLE argument explaining why they wouldnt be pushing out the next game ASAP.
Nintendo may want them to do Animal Crossing first for whatever reason. That's really the only valid argument though and even that's sketchy.
How about the fact that people already feel burned by the sparse updates this game already has, and them going "too bad, Splatoon 4" would really burn them?
I don't know the data, but are 3's legs as good as 2's were? People might be getting sick of things
>How about the fact that people already feel burned by the blah blah blah…
Sorry I dont think they can hear you over the sound of the amount of money being printed for a new Splatoon game on a new console. Splat 3 broke sales records and made a fuck ton of money in a short amount of time. There is no sign of anyone being burned. When people stop buying the games, maybe they’ll stop rushing them out. With a game like Splatoon it’s one you want to get out as early on the system’s lifespan as possible, it’s one of Nintendo’s most profitable IPs right now and is their equivalent of a Call of Duty series. It is inevitable and theyre piss easy to rush out in a short time. Nobody is burned, they WILL buy it and it will break even more sales records the next time.
Answer the question about the legs, you stupid nagger
You’re answering question with a question. Do the legs of splat 3 even matter? I dont think we have enough sales data to know, but the Switch is wrapping up. They made their money and it was a resounding success having sold more than 10M in three months. That’s huge. Regardless of how well the game keeps selling, it’s already a huge success. It does not need to sell anymore, because the Switch is at the end of its life and a new Splatoon will be coming very, very soon, because why WOULDNT it? (the original question that nobody seems to be able to answer)
because splatoon is like a weak little babby compared to MK and a new mario kart could easily be a launch game and would drive more NSO subs. So would an enhance port of ultimate.
Your absolute confidence is pretty misplaced, we really have no idea what they'll do.
You awakened the autist, way to go
I’ll repeat it as many times as it needs to be said. We are getting a new Splatoon, I dont know why people think that wont happen. In fact I wish they would explain it, but they never do beyond “but animal crossing!”
And I take it we’ll be getting a Mario Wonder Deluxe, since we’re being patternfags and not realizing that the Wii U being a failure caused atypical development cycles
I think whatever the new 3D mario game they’re working on will likely be a launch title for the next system. I think there’s probably a few big titles brewing under the hood as all we’re getting this year is smaller scale games and remakes.
But with Splatoon one thing wont change: the next game will have heavy asset reuse and will be barren on release, because that’s how they pump these games out on a two year timeframe. Also the backwards compatibility argument doesnt really apply to Splatoon because it’s a game as a service. It’s not like Smash bros or Mario Kart where you can have one big DLC released every 6 months with nothing in between. It needs constant events every month, and content added on a semi regular basis. I just dont foresee Splatoon 3’s support to be fluffed out in a meaningful way beyond the usual post-support window. A “deluxe” version of Splatoon 3 would also make no sense. They dont release complete Splatoon games, that’s the whole point. They release it empty and fill it out over time with new content to keep people engaged.
No one said the next game won’t have a bunch of asset reuse or said there would be a “deluxe” version. Quit talking around the issue. Your confidence that they wouldn’t extend support for 3 is based purely on patternhomosexualry that ignores the complicating factors of the Wii U and Switch
So why are you still ducking the initial question?
Why WOULDNT they get it out as soon possible? It would be way more profitable than just extending support for Splat 3. and it really, really wouldnt take that much resources to have a new game ready by launch window. Why WOULDNT they rush it out as soon as possible if the games are easy to churn out and print money?
>why are you ducking a question I never asked
Moron. But a combination of avoiding franchise fatigue and having the developers work on other properties. May as well ask why didn’t just make New Super Mario Bros Switch instead of Wonder. Returns will diminish, and going from a fairly new release on a hugely popular console to a quick turnaround on one with a much lower install base is foolish. Especially when that dev team could be pumping out a system seller like a new Animal Crossing
>Franchise fatigue
And yet people keep buying the games, peculiar! You see the state they rush out these dogshit pokemon games, and even in the abyssmal state they’re released in, they keep selling.
>returns will diminish
They have yet diminish for Splatoon.
You’re also leaving out the point that Splatoon is THE big motivator to keep people subscribed to Nintendo Online service, being Nintendo’s main online focused game. They have no other game that is so online dependent than Splatoon. They will want to get people enrolled to Nintendo Online on the new system ASAP.
>And yet people keep buying the games, peculiar!
Do they? Maybe the legs do matter, dumbass
>They have yet diminish for Splatoon.
Then show the legs, idiot.
I cant show you sales data that Nintendo hasnt made public you mouth breathing troglodyte.
They release quarterlies, you retard, check them
>Just do my own research for me
You asked the question about legs, go look it up if you want, but I already told you why it’s inconsequential for the end of the Switch’s lifespan, a time when software sales tend to tamper off anyhow. People are more excited for the new system that will be coming, which will have a new Splatoon within the first year, screencap it.
>system seller like a new Animal Crossing
The only time that was ever true was when everyone was put on lockdown and was desperate for a social simulation game. Historically, animal crossing has not been system seller.
AC:NH is the exception, and those games take more development time than a Splatoon game. They could afford to wait until 2020 to release new horizons, three years into the console’s life. They did not wait to release Splatoon 2 in 2017 and they did not wait long after Animal Crossing to release just two years later in 2022.
Oh yeah and let’s not forget Animal Crossing New Horizons actually suffered multiple delays. And the only animal crossing game we got on the Wii U was the consolation known as Amiibo Festival, apprently because they were unable to get a real HD animal crossing ready in time before the Wii U croaked.
If you’re implying that they thought Splatoon 2 would be a bigger system seller than Animal Crossing, you’re dense as fuck. New Leaf is less than 1 million behind Splatoon 2
Splatoon on the Wii U sold 5 Mil in a very short time. That’s like a 40% install base for a new IP. It was a major success and it’s no wonder they wanted to try and recreate that success on the Switch, which they werent sure was going to save them from the Wii U or not. The Switch as a whole was a big gamble, nobody expected it to be as successful as it was. Splat 2 ended up being a great success for the console, as did Splat 3. Maybe they werent sure it’d be a system seller then, but they knew it had a good chance of being popular with how well Splatoon sold on the failure known as Wii U. And now they definitely know how big Splatoon is so why wouldnt they try to recreate the success of the previous games? Japan will eat that shit up and they know it.
>biggest success for the franchise still barely outsold the the 3DS entry of Animal Crossing, despite the increased install base
Ah yes, what a great point. You can wave your hands as much as you want, but AC’s sales were already increasing and would have outsold Splatoon by many millions, even without covid
Sex with Harmony
she'll kill you
it would be worth it
Why does the game insist on matching me with the best glue eaters the world has ever known while matching me against X rank badges? This dumb motherfucker stole the rainmaker at the last second so I got a wipeout for us and he fucking stands there with his dick in hand WAITING FOR US TO RESPAWN even though the other team had a single point lead and we were in overtime. How the hell do these retards get this high of a rank?
>win game
>next game
>teammates are the guys you just played against
>lose
>rinse and repeat until 50/50 w/l ratio
i despite modern gaming so much
>my lack of skill is the game’s fault
Git gudder. Or just play turf war if you want to stomp children
I stomp X rankers consistently. My teammates ARE the problem. You can royally fuck off.
>I’m the bestest player ever 🙁
lmao, shitter cope
Show me your k/d and w/l right now, you won't you fucking coward
>but muh forced 50/50
lol
keep going and you will get a 15 loss streak
not him but i climbed from C all the way to S+ this month with an average 30 - 10 win/lose ratio.
This tells me that the game thinks you're bad and matches you with carryGODS.
Charge your fucking phone.
Alright then, what weapon are you using? What advice would you give someone with 50/50 win/loss? Git gud isn't good enough.
My advice would be stop complaining and think about what you’re bad at and work on it. You could post a replay code for feedback. Without that or any info on what you play, your rank, etc, it’d just be empty platitudes. I play Wiper mostly. Not deco, fuck tenta missiles
>You could post a replay code for feedback
I would if i could anonymize it.
NTA but i'd be interested in posting a couple replay codes of my rainmaker series matches. One win one loss, I'm interested in getting better especially because I now have enough points for a rank up battle
Sure, give it a go. Just be prepared to ignore it if some autist starts name dropping you
I've never cared, I get namedropped from time to time and I just find it amusing if not a little sad. Also I doubt the namedropper even knows how to view replays
Are you going post replays? I’m going to get off Ganker until we start getting twitter updates
Alright, here's a couple:
RU39-A1F6-91QF-NQRJ Knockout Win
R18J-Y37Y-150N-LN2D Normal win
RL7M-XUKH-5CDR-KNG3 Loss
RTNH-Q2MX-1GAP-J1MD Loss
You are way too single minded about zerg rushing. I know that’s what you’re kitted out for, but you’re forcing it way too often. You even did it with the rainmaker when you needed a more sustained push. Pick and choose when you’re going to go in. You have a sub that can displace at long range. cooler is amazing at team support. Try to build it up more often and share it with your teammates instead of rushing in to die, make your respawn longer and lose special charge. Consider stalling the enemy push with a fizzy to allow your teammates to get back to the action instead of instantly zerging every time. The best time to dive is when your team is juiced up and distracting the enemy, especially if you can help secure an initial pick with a fizzy. Help to facilitate pick those moments
Got it, any other advice? Thanks by the way
That’s what jumped out. General advice of keeping your head on a swivel and trying to find those brief moments where you can 2v1 an enemy. Especially when you feel like your team can’t pull its weight without your help. You’re welcome
Too much brute forcing honestly. It might work at lower ranks and you probably got bat habits from it but past that you're gonna need some awareness of the state of the game to know what to do and when to do it.
Spam more fizzy bombs, look for kills or at least a trade with tacticooler buff because if you die it's not a big deal and share it with others as much as you can. Your weapon is a great support with these two tools, use them more.
Thanks for taking the time to watch and tell me what I can improve, I really appreciate it
You’re welcome anon. Remember to have fun!
No problem. Honestly, rainmaker is not that easy to play with randoms because like clam you have to work together to push the objective. Tower control and splat zones have more solo carry potential but there's more stomps in these modes.
What can help you is if you can find replays of the weapon you're using or even a good X-rank player using it in the mode you're playing and posting his matches on YouTube.
>shitskin mentality
if i get sweatier enemies then i should get sweatier teammates
>cuck mentality
Your teammates shouldn’t do everything for you while you just watch
You didn’t get the memo? CarryGODS are a myth. It’s forced 50/50!
No, cause I’ll keep improving instead of crying 🙂
I fucking hate series. I want to wring the neck of whoever thought it was a good idea to derank people every season and make X battle a temporary unlock.
that thigh gap with a hint of cheeks oooooooh BROOOOOTHER
anybody down for some turf?
I can play a few rounds, let turn on my console.
It’s up
sure, name?
Stop being a homosexual
You’re asking for the impossible
retard
Name drop the people who wants to play turf war
Join my room and find out
you already know who likes to complain about mentioning names. theyre in the pool right now
I bet its gibbs
Nobody here likes you dramafag, I can assure of that.
hey str1d3r, stop shitting up the thread
Lol try guessing a million other names, maybe you’ll get it right one day homosexual. Are you still that mindbroken over being squidbagged? Seek professional help.
I don't know what your problem is with this guy, he's genuinely good at the game and fun to play with
He already explained it before. Basically he got squidbagged during a big run and it apparently cost him a high score something silly like that and the guy could never let it go. Genuine mental illness.
You're...joking right? There's no way someone would be that mindbroken over a squidbagging....r..right?
Probably didn't help I was dressed like this that BR
He name dropped me during that BR I think he just wants to blame everybody but himself
Do you remember who it was? I'm just curious
G!!!
Nice try
the new season trailer is making me think that they might start putting in more effort and support might be extended
its stupid to think such but I can hope
Because they put in memes and shoddily animated Harmony? Content wise the season is not above others
I think it depends entirely on the Switch 2's release timing and whether it has BC or not.
Oh I forgot to switch off the twin drills
Not playing as good tonight bro sorry. I feel like I’m piloting a giant meat robot
It's alright man, I'm not playing my best either.
The song sounds like she says Darling Darling
Wtf comm error?
I noticed that, you get the hammer? AH you didn't
I’ve never been dc’d like that before wtf
Turf war 3/4
mommy long legs lookin' rad
I haven't played that much, could have worked on my cooler placements better. Too far back.
Harmony should replace Shiver
For real, Harmony is the first time I've loved a shopkeeper way more than the game's actual idols you're supposed to like
Nah, if she needs to replace someone it should be Frye
shiver harmony big man as the 3 woulda been pretty pleasant
I don't think Shiver and Harmony would have as good a dynamic as Shiver and Frye
Next game they should just have all of ABXY be the "idol group" so the 4 autism can be sated, and have them split into two teams of two taking sides for each splatfest
Of course then whatever team Harmony is on would probably sweep like Shiver does right now, unfortunately
No one cares about dynamic, we just wanna see our favorite characters
>rage dc
Nice
GGs gtg for now might be back later might not
Gg man, I got one more in me BF before dinner myself
I'm gonna make a clam blitz room at rotation
Well that fucking sucks, sorry man
Nah it's all good, always fun to play with you GGs
>deep cut amiibo drop right before splatfest
I was gonna call this stupid but then I remembered you need to stupidly grind matches for the amiibo to give you gear so it's whatever I guess
clam blitz 2/4
Hey, it’s that tourney anon from last thread. Nintendo released a new tournament creator for the app and I wanna try giving it a test run to get a better idea of how it works and if it could have use
If any anons are interested in participating I could set up a small tourney for next week. Can give the tournament manager a run through and make for good practice
It's rather bare bones but that's to be expected. I'd be down though what day/time were you thinking?
Considering maybe the 25th or 26th at 2pm PST, sometime on the weekend. Wanna see if there’s any interest first before jumping in alongside getting an idea of what time would be best
very funny
they're just like me, fr fr
I love my wife bros
she definitely needs her own merch. her hat, a plush, an amiibo, SOMETHING
No Harmony plush until with get a Yoko plush.
Was not expecting them to lean into the Harmony popularity like that. At least they finally capitalized on a good idea for once. The awkward little animations were cute. I love the idea of the new stage being a ramen shop, but who knows how good it'll be. I'm at least happy to see Bluefin back, but hope they don't ruin it. Don't know how to feel about lifts being put in. Most of the new gear looks nice, it bodes well for FrostyFest. But I'm still prepared for them to once again have nothing new in the shops. Overall, the update seems like it could go either good or bad depending on the execution. But hey, Chirpy Chips is back with great music so that's fantastic. Maybe I'll finally be able to not call them Chirpy Chirps now.
What the FUCK was that new king, though? Looks like Mega Fug or something. Can't wait to listen to its terror-inducing roar like fug got. Octo daughter best daughter.
Better look at the new king we’ll deal with. Also gonna be having Big Run at Barnacle & Dime
SR chads eating good this season
Went through it frame by frame. Not 100% certain, but it seem sure as hell seems like it bursts out of the ground like a goddamn Deviljho or some other unholy terror. Makes me wonder if you can deal massive damage by having all 4 players through a bomb at once.
New stage seems pretty varied in its layout and has inkable walls, so it’s shaping up to look fairly solid. Bluefin didn’t go unscathed, but time will tell if the changes are a positive or not
As for the harmony focus it’s cute but means they’ve skimped out on a lot of stuff that would normally be shown like tableturf cards, so they might have very little to provide. Only 8 new weapons isn’t a good look either, less than previous seasons. Not to mention the cephs featured all only have 1-2 new gear similar to last season, so it’s looking to be like that again with only half a catalog and rerunning old chill season content
Then again we’ve yet to get anything in the way of twitter updates so they may have some stuff in their back pocket to share, but yea either we’ll get a solid update or something even smaller than the last
With the way the multiplayer updates have been, I'm leaning more towards smaller. There is so fucking much to put in, but they keep making the updates tinier in terms of content. What the fuck is their major malfunction, 2 did not feel this cursed. I'm at least happy that salmon run keeps getting new shit, buffs, and whatnot.
The studio is divided into normal updates/Side Order/probably a new Animal Crossing/possibly a Splatoon 4
It's not surprising, but I hope the last one isn't being worked on yet
Hey wait, that pompadour is a veemo.
Not surprising, simply disappointing.

I still haven't played this, what's the latest version with all the content? I need a good fap tonight.
1.55 is the finished version.
>tfw speedrunning
I hate that the dev just made Harmony unable to fight in 1.55 instead of giving her a sprite for it

New Inkbrush is great for sick frags.
>you lose 1/3 of your special charge just sitting there in start up, let alone the penalty if you get killed
This thing could be made vastly more tolerable so easily if the devs weren’t stupid
Reefslider’s a lost cause, just puck up a better special
Shut up, what a stupid response
Well it wouldn’t be a problem if you just stayed away from that shit special like you should
But I want to play the shit main weapon that only had that special! Why can’t the devs use their brains just a tiny bit and make these things more tolerable for the idiots who can’t resist?
>get hydra
>ez wave clear
>dont have hydra

Those were the best frags I ever got, how did I lose?

Is King Maws really based on an anglerfish? If so, that's awesome. Would be kino if he lures you with a golden egg

i think im going bamboozler for splatfest bros
so hows the meta in A/S? fun shooty shoot or spammy cancer?
i haven't played since release
Imagine how great Splatoon 3 would be if they had been making maps on the same level of quality as the lalst few for the entire lifetime of the game
we can only hope and pray for stage reworks.

Gonna be a tall order to dethrone the Gold Bazookas this time around
i hope chirpy chips finally gets the well deserved honor of being a 3 song band
Daily reminder that tentacle to the metal exists
I don't understand the massive hateboner for that song.
It probably has something to do with the fact that it's the worst song in the game
thats what that song is called? i fuckin hate it.
Should I attempt my rank up battle now on these maps?
Did it anyways
1 win 1 loss gonna leave it there for now
Gonna make a SR room at the hour for my bonuses. Would've done it before but I've been trying my hand at turf way the last couple of days, to varying degrees of success. And sometimes abject humiliation.
I thought you didn’t even play multiplayer outside of splatfest
Splatoon 3?
More like cumming inside of little tiny squid girl dicky
Amazing first game.
>152 eggs
Fuck year
>Fuck year
which one?
>popped inkjet thinking it was ink strikes
Thankfully I recovered from that.
1976. It knows what it did.
You're confusing me being addicted to SR with me not ever wanting to play regular splatoon.
i dont feel like slammin and i dont feel like turfin so i sleep till tomorrow
still dont know if i wanna go bamboozler or splash though

Like....the george lamond song? I don't get it
Freestyle, obviously you aint a 90's kid at best, freetyle is good music. No emotional ties to it. It has ties with love, that's what freetsyle was about back in the day.
I miss love...
I have nothing against you, zoomer, we all get past the captchas.

Why be an asshole, and these captchas
Is this some new zoomer catchphrase?
Asking a splatoon player if they've jerked it to splatoon porn is like asking a guy if they've tried to self suck before
Holy shit, I love you for that support on the cannon.
People can do both, man.
I was running out of ink at the end, but I tried my best
Ugh, I'm doing so bad here.
You did more than most have and would.
Where I coom and where I frag are in two different places and I'd prefer to keep it that way.
This kills the octopus.

Should i just say fuck it and grind rank up battles? I usually just play rainmaker on series but I've been doing pretty good at clams in open with the pool.
Playing clams with the pool and playing clams in series to s+ are very different experiences.
Harmony and Chirpy Chips better get their own banner soon, my only way of saying I’m a fan is wearing the gold version of her badge on my Splattag.
shiver makes me run out of ink
You're inserting it into her, right?
Anyone ‘round to fish or is everyone in their own rooms already. Just tryna get bonuses
Also so people know, next rotation goes on during the splatfest, so you’ll need to break from the festivities if you want those particular bonuses
I can do a king
There were big shots 9 that shift
progress..
pathetic...
suicides at rotation?
Not sure if i'll make it on time if it happens. i'll probably join when someone leaves
God I love the reef-lux GG's guys great shifts
There's a big part of me that wanted to keep that going, but my controllers crapped out on me like 4 or 5 times there so I'm gonna cut my losses. Or wins. Thanks for indulging me. Maybe I'll do some solo turf war later or something.
I'm hating it a bit less every time I use it. I was actually pretty safe down there at the cannon solo. Though you did provide great backup there.
>I'm hating it a bit less every time I use it
You're getting used it and after a couple more rotation you won't be having problems
Sweet, got an email hours ago that my amiibo have shipped. But since it's almost the weekend, they likely won't arrive until well into next week. At least after the splatfest, I can make my octo a cute little Shiver fan.
>You're getting used it
This was like my 400th time used it, man. I'm well acquainted with reeflux in SR. A few good games does not erase all the other countless times I was wishing I could get almost any other weapon.
I got lucky and just grabbed one off the shelf at a store near me
Gotta love it when they break the street date. I'd rather not take any chances, not after how many years it took me to get sweet Callie and beloved Marie. I was lucky enough to get Pearl and Marina at a gamestop near me way before they got reprints. Which I wanna say was earlier this year? I dunno, but my Target hasn't been able to get rid of them.
I don't think mine has much a chance unless I open it up and see what's inside. But it feels like the screws were put in inhumanly tight, none of my tools can get it open.
They will unless you're using JIS bits
Far as I can tell, these are just tiny phillips heads.
Hold the fuck up, I thought no one outside japan was getting the 3-pack.
That's all we have I think (Australia)
>Far as I can tell, these are just tiny phillips heads
Nintendo doesn't use phillips, they use JIS which is similar but different enough that regular phillips screwdrivers don't work as well
One store was already sold out and said they weren't getting any more stock, but I went to another one and they had 4 (picrel) so grabbed one.
SEXO
Just keep doing whatever you're doing because it's working
Be mildly disgruntled and do what little I can? You got it.
>SEXO
Ah, you're one of them.
lmao
>Ah, you're one of them
Not really I just say it for the sake of it and honestly I like frye more than shiver
>like frye more than shiver
And yet you chose Team Shiver. Curious.
I'd figured, yeah. Guess I better open one so I can see if there's even the slightest change of saving my controller. Going by the rattling I can hear while shaking it, though, probably not.
Just replace the stick, it's a good beginner soldering job if you've never done it before
Never done it in my life, though this probably wouldn't be a bad place to start learning.
Just watch a couple beginner tutorials on it and use flux and lead free solder if you like your brain
It's not hard, I've saved hundreds and it's a valuable skill to have.
I'll keep that in mind. Thanks, man.
>soldering
fuck that tbh
I was originally going to be on team big man because of the red ink, but my nephew convinced me to pick shiver
Kid's got good taste, he steered you onto the right path.
My only regret is that I won't have the one big 3-pack package. I liked the ones for Squid Sisters, Off the Hook, and the octolings.
lol I usually tell him which team to pick but that time he really wanted to be on team shiver. Still not sure why.
Like I said, he's got good taste. But to be on your side for a little bit, I also genuinely like Frye. Shiver's my favorite, but Frye is a lovable meathead and I wish her and the other 2 got more to do. But I had to pick a side, and it was no contest.
All idols are fine (except pearl) but I really don't care about them. The only time I cared was when it was Callie vs. Marie and I ended up picking Marie. It was a tough choice though.
I was talking about the deep cut splatfest
>Shiver's team is red ink.
>Big Man is green
>Frye is barf yellow
No it's
>Shiver is fruit punch
>Big Man is snot
>Frye is barf
>(except pearl)
Dude. But yeah, it's probably best not to care too much about this silly game. But dammit, it's so fun and engrossing I can't help but engage. At least you picked best girl for the end result of 1.
>Shiver is fruit punch
Huh, didn't think of it like that. My mind went to raspberry jam. By odd coincidence, I'm actually sucking on a fruit punch lollipop.
Don't know why I just don't like her
There may have been a case for that at launch, but if you didn't like her after OE then you got at least a few screws loose.
I hate her more because of the god awful damp socks songs
Shiver's team is red ink.
Big Man is green
Frye is barf yellow
We were talking about the Deep Cut splatfest, anon. The one that caused all those delicious meltdowns.
Can you see through the holes in Frye's pants?
Ask someone here who has her to post pictures.
Fair enough, then. The 3-pack can be imported by us burgers, but doing so was more expensive than just getting them separately from a retailer or off Nintendo's website. Before shipping, no less. Now that even Nintendo's store is sold out, it seems to be the best option for those that missed them.
You can

any bamboozler tips?
Don't.
why not?
There's a rhythm to steady consecutive charging, learn it
but why? it only takes a full charge and like a tap to kill
>check pro controller
>2 days ago it wouldn't click in

Fuck me, and I was hoping to at least keep it for games that didn't need the click like Smash.

At least I have the other one that miraculously started working again
>Hug my Splatling after the Match

This Splatfest is more traitorous than I originally thought.
I propose an alliance.
Does Nintendo give your series points back if you played against a cheater?
They are unlikely to do anything in the first place.
It depends on how blatant it was, he hasn't said what happened
What's her endgame?
looks like theres a penis there and im not happy
God willing, more music.
Great use of those Big Shot Cannons, guys.
I give you Ganker During the Splatfest V3.0, feat The Squid Sisters.

11 Bronze, 1 Silver, huh?
And we absolutely bullied Cohozuna too. Well, I gotta go to sleep. Thanks for having me.
Reminder that if you don't get all three together, you're a bad person.
>he doesn't get only shiver and big man
But I already did, same with the Idols from previous games
My monitor died on me during that last shipshape match, literally faded to black and made a clicking noise
Playing tabletop rn
whoa randomly matched with a few of you guys by chance in open rainmaker, sick game fellas
is the splatfest up yet
send another invite for RM I just missed it
Still beating that dead seahorse?
there should be a twitter reveal in about an hour.
>made a dynamofag rage quit in series
Yeah fuck you
So..what happened to that suicide room?
They all died.
i thought people were already in one
I don't like hosting rooms
i'll (try to) make one at rotation
a tableturf room?
ranked suicide room
I'm totally down for sure
>not a single person on my friends list has chosen hugs
Either no one wants it or no one cares about this splatfest. It's somewhat sad regardless.
i was so used to splatfest being two months apart i wasn't expecting another one so soon
The pattern up until now was big run, splatfest, splatfest. I assume we'll be going back to that now that we've passed the anniversary.
She's a crazy little screwball.
4>8
Something’s been on my mind for a while. I feel like I’m not supposed to be male, and I honestly want to transition. I’ll probably change my username to BigJane soon so be ready for that change I guess.
Hell no.
ok bro
why do you bully her?
Oh anon, you and your little jokes.
Legitimately surprised this is the first time I've seen someone do this. Or maybe someone already has and I missed it.
I’m sorry who the fuck do you think you are? Don’t downplay me coming out.
Not particularly looking for it, but if you end up needing a 4th for the suicide room I can do two runs.
female 4 is so cute
It's your time to shine
Bangin'
I got enough for 1 more king BTW
k
Is the reef better than the aero?
sex with harmony's emotionless underage squid/anemone/jellyfish/whatever the fuck she is pussy
Shes like 27 or some shit, why do you homosexuals have to pretend the canonically adult characters are children to like them?
I think she's 21
I also got gold before you joined
I have184
the golden egg trophy looks pretty cool
doesn't matter
all cephalopods in this game are underage coded
and Harmony is as well, whatever she is
GOLD!
if you have a strong weapon like the hydra, just shoot the king and stay alive
I'll know that for next time
GOLD! GGs guys
open spot for suicide
I wish the game would just auto trash grizz gear with a lower number of ability slots than your current
Good shit. Sorry for dying so much, though. Also please ignore the troll who keeps acting like me, I am coming out.
Bigjane bros…
>aww pay cut
I'm assuming you're unable to play ranked during a splatfest right?
Yeah, only thing you can do is Salmon and Private Battles
Damn, guess i'll have to wait a while for my next rank up attempt. Also imagine turf war series
Hey, 4 silvers isn't a bad payout. I was expecting one or none. Okay, one more for me.
Yup. It's turf, SR, or bust.
climb yourself out of B rank first
before you start shitposting
>ředdit spacing
Fuck off. I’m trans, deal with it.
3/4 suicide 9999
If we can't get a 4th we can always throw in freelance or get you back up to evp
nah I'm good
>got hydra for coho
Melted that summabitch like a stick of butter. No golds, but I'll happily take all these silvers. Thanks for the boss fights. Really looking forward to what the new king has in store for us.
GG's
i like kiting coho around the basket while the hydra lays into him
gg
>that rank
Anon, no!
Harmony but with huge fucking anemone tits
did they upgrade splattershots I felt way more lethal yesterday, like, requiring less shots to splat people
Yes, repeatedly
Shooters get buffed every patch even if they're meta

How can I be in professional +3 and nobody even communicate a single time in the round? Why am I the only one going “This way!” when I see a goldie it’s very frustrating. Why are you people even playing if you’re not gonna communicate… that one round where you have to shoot the thing to get the goalie to come out and nobody is saying it when they get it so I’m like where the fuck are they running around the map trying to find them because I hear the ding It is a waste of time.
A lot of people just play and hope for the best, not really trying to think and assume other players will pick up the slack. it's a kid's game after all
Huh? I almost never communicate shit except "Booyah" when somebody does something cool or does some good teamwork. Most people I play with have good enough awareness to know where it's at without anybody saying anything
>new monster we know almost nothing about
>devs give it the most basic name ever
It's Steve all over again.
it's probably "jaw" spelled out in jap then retranslated back by a machine
Okay yeah, that makes more sense. But now I kind of just wanna call it Joe, at least until we get a good look at it.
I'm fully aware it is now too late and everyone will refer to it as such like fug irrespective of the localised name
Fug at least has precedent and a long history behind it. Plus it's just plain fun to say.
Joe is to the new king like fug is to horroboros
and fatty/fat fuck to coho
Handshakegods, make sure to equip robo flow
Joe is my favorite King Salmonid
I'm excited for the gold Joe badge and the gold Joe trophy
>gold Joe trophy
>he doesn't know
I mean the joe trophy will probably happen next next big run I think, probably just didn't want the new king potentially spoiled by datamine and weren't certain when it would be officially revealed when making that recent patch
Who's Joe
lmao if it's actually joe and not a google translate error it's definitely getting changed in english, that said joe's a fucking hilarious name so I'm gonna keep calling him that like how I call coho fatfuck and horo fug
GOLD!
Course when I'm not playing, you niggas get gold. Oh well, I"m still happy with the silvers. Slow but steady climb towards the banner.
how much gold do you have?
167 gold scales.
ngmi...
Damn you all.
I assume you spent 30 on the cap?
No I spent all of my golds on the golds grizzco banner
Might as well go to bed now, probably won't be another thread until morning or noon. Good night.
Ah, of course.
Right, these always drop right before the splatfests start. Gonna be the first time we get multiple pieces of art for one in 3.
I'm back up to 163 golds
that character is pronounced Jo so it's actually Joe lmao
nice golds ggs
ANOTHER GOLD! I'll end it here at go-getter GG's suicide crew.
