Splatoon Splatoon General Discussion (HYPE THREAD)

Is anyone else playing and having issues with the connection? I've gone into about 3 different matches and received communication errors. One of them I didn't even get past the lobby because although there was 8 players in the lobby, the timer still counted down and then said there weren't enough players.
 
Just had the most garbage splat zones battle ever...

I was on a team where everyone was a roller or paintbrush and the whole other team was jet squelchers or snipers... guess who won

Well seeing as all of them were using long range weapons and we had 2 paintbrushes which take atleast 6 hits to kill and 2 dynamo rollers you work out why we lost my know it all.

whats a my know it all?

i was on a team where my entire team had paint brushes and we still managed to win by at least a good 20%. all i'm saying is maybe you need to brush up on your skills and accept that maybe the reason you lost is because you're not as good as you think you are, instead of blaming everyone else. from what i've played, each weapon has a fair amount of balance to it. as long as you know how to use the weapon properly, then there isn't really an issue on how many or how little of what you have on your team.

oops unintentional pun

I dont think I'm that good. I know there is clearly people who are better than me. All I'm saying is it's hard to win when you have 2 weaapons that take a long time to kill someone and 2 weapons that are exceedingly slow to move with and attack with.
Theres not really much comparison to a match with 4 paintbrushes and a match with 2 dynamo rollers due to the slow movement and attack rate.

Trying to get to the opposite side of port mackerel to take the other section of the rank battles arena is hard when you don't covers that much area and the 2 people that do cannot get through the alleyways due to being so slow.
You're also giving an example of turf wars, not ranked battle. Big difference buddy.
 
I haven't been on yet this morning, whoops. I'll be on in a bit.

I didnt actually ever say I lost. I said guess who won :-)

Also, I dont complain everytime I lose do I. I don't even know why you replied in the first place tbh!
 
That moment in ranked battles when you've got your E-liter charged fully (which takes a while) and a roller user comes around the corner and is coming to get you, but don't worry, because you know they're coming and you're about to let this shot rip their head clean off. You get them in sight, you're about to release the trigger aaaaaaaaand, what the ****!? Yet again, one of your team members decides to stand right in front of you and blocks the shot. You frantically try to charge up again before the other guy kills you, but your 'ally' just keeps standing right in front of you no matter where you move to and every single one of your shots get blocked by their stupid face. It feels like he's doing it on purpose but he can't be, why would he do that? Everything goes to ****, both you and your oblivious ally die and you lose the area as the entire other team jump to that guy who just got a double kill...

You go back to where you wrongfully died. You start sniping again, defending the area like a boss, then your friend comes back. He decides it's a good idea to walk really close to you on the way past, just a bit too close though, pushing you just enough to knock you off the edge into the pool of water waiting below. Good going, guy, you got a kill! *rageface*


PSA: Stop doing this. Why are you even near me, you have a Splattershot Jr, what exactly do you expect to do from so far back? Use me as a spawn point, that's fine, but please go away immediately afterwards...And stop touching me on the way past.

Lmao. That was bloody hilarious omg.

Wth was that guy even doing xD
 
In other news: Killer Wails can be crossed. When the beams are crossed, things spontaneously com-bust, leaving ink splotches from the poor Inklings all over the Splat Zone. It's pretty though.

The sad part is how regularly this happens to me in ranked. I just don't understand why people are so close to me all the time when I'm sat at the back sniping/camping out of range for every other gun (aside from super jumping to me since I'm usually a good spawn point).

It's not so bad in regular since I'm moving around a lot as well.

Are you telling me that I shouldn't cross the streams?
