Haven't played in awhile. Class is about to start back up and my work schedule is also going to cut heavy into playing time. I'll probably jump in when new content hits.

Now, I wonder if I can make it to 400 one of these days...

Yo, Annie has flip flops with ink recovery right now.
I like object shredder... But I think I like ink recovery more. Going for these.

Played a bunch of Salmon Run last night and I think it might be my favorite "horde mode" in a game, period. It's just so dang fun and the game length is perfect. Other games make similar modes feel like too much of a time sink. I didn't touch Horde mode in Gears 4 because of that.

So with Salmon Run, once you get to 1200p each time and get both Superbonuses you're good, right?
Fresh!
my shitty art
Fresh!
Well damn, here I was thinking there was a cap at 100, lol. Guess I got my work cut out for me. Is there any sort of cap on the pay grade, or that just keeping going up as well?

You would think when your team only covers 38% of the Turf, you would lose. Well when the other team covers 36.4%, that means you win. Should have not completely ignored their base.

As far as I've seen, it keeps rising as well.

Why the hell would they give the Clash Blaster set the Sting Ray special? Should have been Splashdown or a bomb rush :/
Man, those weapons on the current Salmon Run. Sorry to everybody, I just can't with the splatling. Managed to lose and regain my current rating ("Boss", whatever that is in English) by losing every match on the higher rating and winnig every on the lower one. So I probably won't bother for the last hour.

Dude, you've said this same thing like 3 times since yesterday We get it ;p
I like it when there aren't two chargers and people don't know how to use it and I'm guaranteed to drop a rank.
Yeah, it sucks. Shame, because the Clash Blaster is an awesome weapon

Meant to share last night but it was too late and I wasn't about to get up just to do so (as I already had to get up from bed since I forgot to grab my rewards!):
That's the highest I've ever gotten! Played Freelance to the 200 mark while getting my Superbonuses. The rest came from playing with a bunch of SplatGAF throughout the day/night (okay so more like night and early morning, whatever).
Do rewards remain even after the Salmon Run ends? Is it like Splatfest, and things are able to be picked up until the next begins?

They hold over till before the next salmon run, yeah.

yeah, but i think you need to pick them up before the next one starts

Maybe balance tweaking. Maybe just to have something interesting to release in the first month after launch.

Having a weapon that acts as a separate moving object unique to its firing mechanism would probably want additional play testing in a multiplayer format.

I thought 50 was the highest?
That shouldn't be that bad, especially at lower levels...
Pay attention to the quota and the timer. As long as you reach the quota, it's more important to be alive than to increase the number of eggs. So if you've reached the quota, focus on staying alive. Support, cover ground (freedom of motion helps a lot to survive), pay attention to where your teammates are, and don't think there's no honor in fleeing. More than once, I've seen levels passed with the only remaining teammate running away.
Also, should you be killed, it's probably obvious, but try to reach ground where your teammates are. Or where the enemies they're attacking are, I've been revived several times by paint targeted at enemies
When in doubt, you probably should go back to the basket.If you talk about capsules, I'm 99% sure you can still reclaim them even after playing the next salmon run session. I was surprised a couple days ago when I reclaim the prizes to get shirts instead of headgear (and more capsule than I thought), then I remember I probably forgot to reclaim them at the end of July...
What is with the weird obsession with "Japanese Gameplay" in almost literally every game? I've always found it strange that western gamers put Japanese players on a pedestal.
My bad, 45
Well, Splatoon was far more popular in Japan than anywhere else, so there was a bunch of really skilled players in 1... I don't know for other games, but japanese Splatoon is kinda like korean starcraft...
That makes sense. I was kinda hoping they'd already have it done before launch but extra time to prevent bugs is perfectly respectable.
lol
Thanks. Guess I didn't need to get up last night then. Oh well, lol.

Ah, I see. I see people say that about this game, many fighting games, and even speedruns. It's been a thing as far back as the internet for me, so I've always wondered the obsession.
Used a double exp ticket and then won the next 6 rounds in a row, felt damn good and got me from lvl 9 to 10 easily.
It was my first time ever using the N-Zap, too. Seems pretty good but I'm not really seeing how it's different from a Splattershot Pro? It's worse at inking territory than the Aerospray but it's a damn sight better for duelling other squids.
This is my first ever Salmon Run on the Spawning Grounds. This level is nowhere near as good as Marooner's Bay and the spread of weapons is horrible. I've never even used any of them. Charger, .96 Gal, Splatling Gun... I was like "What the fuck is all this?" Total liability to my team. Lost three in a row and quit before I lost Overachiever status.

the nzap has a higher fire rate, lower damage, is better with ink consumption, and is shorter range than the splattershot pro
I'm not sure you can really gain that insight from the one match I posted. Tell me again how my 6 kills and 2 deaths that match is "awful at defense?" With ninja squid and ink resistance I can get behind a team that's pushing, take them out and recover what they inked in no time. I might not have the range but mobility and ink rate can trump that. Especially at the end of the match.

I can defend the shit out of my team with the aerospray. Don't listen to that nonsense. It's a great weapon.
I followed this twitter account for the schedule
next shift starts tomorrow at 8am ET

What did you all think of the umbrella from single player? I found it hard to use since it was so slow. What do you all think it will be useful for?
Okami Haundo
Member
Maybe it was just from not using it enough, but I found myself having trouble with the whole "press and hold" option to release the umbrella. It made me wish you could just do like a 1-2 second press+hold to release it faster but then have the penalty of not being able to fire normally until it returns.
It's definitely a good rush weapon as you could easily just walk/swim behind the released umbrella. You could also use it as a distraction for players who might expect you to just hide behind the umbrella.

Also not a fan. Its just not a weapon that 'clicked' with me.
Perhaps in some ranked modes it could be useful for blonking and adding cover to teammates?
