40 seconds to beat ND in Rainmaker?
Amateurs.
Not sure if this is what you're interested in, but there's a Private Match option that lets 8 players do any combination of mode and map (can't have more than 4 players per team though). It's how we usually organize practice matches and tournaments.As well as allowing friends/parties to play on any stage and mode they want. I'd also like to see the ranked modes have a different rotation period as well as I stopped playing cuz it's always tower control. I actually like tower control but I don't want to only play that mode.
I get, mostly, Best Shooter for Splatoon. It's colorful and light-hearted, quirky and inventive in ways that Shooter v.2015 isn't.
But Best Multiplayer? Especially with the way they've locked on-disc content and released it week by week. And that's on top of the Wii U's -still- woefully inadequate online features. Nintendo gets such as free pass on everything just for being Nintendo.
Oh, you want to bring speed into the equation? Let's go with some Timid Natured Kevin real fast. Afterwards, you can enjoy some Tower Control scoped charger, or a look into what ranked Splat Zones mode at S/S+ level looks like. If this is too much, you could always watch a relaxing bit of Turf War on the most neutral stage in the game at current.
Edit: How could I forget this gem?
Just like how you can tell which Splatoon players have played too much CoD. "Congrats on the positive K/D! You got less than 200p. Please never get matchmade with me again."
The best thing about Splatoon's MP is that Nintendo's limitations on online also strip the worst elements of online MP. Imagine games where you don't have shitheads teamkilling and screaming toxic shit in chat.
So refreshing and enjoyable.
Uh Rainbow Six? The Taken King?
That's something only a Nintendo game could get away with. If a COD or Halo limited itself like that it would get butchered by reviews and the fanbase.
Destiny has it's moments of being the best MP shooter and the worst MP shooter.
Well you gotta have one player who can take out the opposing team while the rest claim territory. The best teams always have that one player that dominated in K/D.
I'm mainly talking about if other shooters didn't have that feature. Nintendo has that Nintendo workaround that's good enough.And Splatoon WASN'T butchered for no voice chat before it was released? Please do some research.
3/1 ain't dominating.
Rocket League?It's the only game among the nominations not routinely shit on
Wait...people are complaining about Splatoon winning best shooter and best multiplayer?
Have they played Splatoon?
I don't think they'll ever be squids :[
Still doesn't have voice chat though right? Hard for me to agree with a "multiplayer" award given to a game without voice chat in 2015.

Listening to squeaky-voiced 13-year-olds spout racist and sexist crap actually ruins multiplayer games for me, so i couldn't care less about there being no voice chat.
Although, i would hazard a guess that the vast majority of Splatoon players are 25+.
I've never even played Splatoon and I can't complain. That game looks like a goddamn blast!
I keep trying to imagine if voicechat would really help this game and can't come up with a "yes".
I am sure really hardcore players might get some use of it but in a way, I kind of like that you make decisions by seeing rather than speaking.
I'm not anti-voicechat though, it's one area where I wish Nintendo would come around.
I'm kinda glad none of the big names won something this year. Hopefully this will make devs innovate more in the near future.

Oh the things people would say in ranked....
Cool, I really wish Nintendo made more totally fresh AAA projects such as this one, without slapping one of their usual suspect's name on it. I hope Splatoon's success convinces them to do that. Splatoon seems worthy of praise, even though I have not played it.

Lots of it, or it was actually more like a gradual release than free dlc. It launched really barebones and got frequent content updates.
I'm going to have to play Splatoon! It has free DLC, yeah? Seems like a great game.

Just out and barely played by people because everybody thought it would suck.Uh Rainbow Six? The Taken King?
Why you gotta lump the entire Halo and COD fanbase into toxicity?A fanbase that's exceedingly toxic almost to MOBA levels?
Yeah excuse me while I play the world's smallest violin for their feelings on the subject.

Laugh all you want, I can never see such a game taking priority by console gamers who play COD and Destiny and shooters that sell 20 million.
And laughing at gun control, when a gun kicks at 10 o clock and you have to control its recoil to be accurate, feather the trigger quickly to help reset the sights..centre speed....you guys really are on a different page.
Go read Hey den and the depth of the gun analysis in COD for one example...and then comment.
Would I call garden warfare a 'gun play shooter' - no I would not. you point and shoot peas or whatever, but there is no real 'gun play'. Do I enjoy garden warefare - yes it was fun, but its not a gun play shooter to compete with what I believe shooter fans want on console.
These games are fun but will make no head way into the really popular shooters imo.
