Topic: Splatoon 3

So there will be a new Grizzco weapon at the upcoming Big Run. Hmm... What weapon type hasn't got a Grizzco variant yet?
Shooter, Splatling and Brushes?

Frye for me. I feel like both big man and shiver are really overrated, and if you manage to look past Frye's forehead, she's got a lot of charm. Eels are way better than sharks. Pretty sure in the japanese version of the game she uses "washi" instead of "watashi" because she learned the language for her grandpa. She brings indian motifs to deep cuts music.
She is overall the best idol in splatoon history to me.

Appears that, for this season at least, we'll be getting 1 Big Run and 3 Splatfests, instead of 1 and 2 (fine by me - more is better).

All right, I just made it to level 85 on my catalog. I'm hoping to make it to level 100 before the season ends. I haven't played Salmon Run that much, I should change that sometime. I've mostly been playing Turf War matches, though I have finished the story mode as well.

@WoomyNNYes Hey how's it going? I saw you were online and I tried joining your online session after winning my first match of the day, but it gave me a communication error. I think I know why, actually. I checked my friend list when that happened, and it said you went offline 9 minutes ago. It's odd that your character's still there in the lobby when you've finished playing... I tried joining another friend a while back, and the same thing happened. I did actually join before winning my first match of the day, and it did let me in, but the game had me waiting and waiting after your battle, so I had to go. Sorry about that. Plus I started playing at around 7:40 pm EDT, and a new day begins in-game on 8:00 pm EDT.

@chapuH @Croctopus Drizzle Season 2022's Splatfests were:

• Deserted Island - September 23rd - 25th
• Pokemon - November 11th - 13th

So shifting the Splatfests by 2 weeks for looking at this year you get:

• Deep Cut - September 8th - 10th
• ? - October 27th - 29th

Which would line up for Splatoween timing.

That reminds me. Forgive this really dumb question. Do we have to create a room for friends to be able to ramdomly join us in turf war? I've never been clear on what the game allows. It's rare that friends are online and playing the same mode, so I'm still not clear on how it works.🤣

@MarioLover92 @Budda

@Grumblevolcano OH there BETTER BE a Splatoween this year. We need some halloween masks(gear) in Splatoon 3. I'm going to be quite disappointed if there's no Splatoweens in Splatoon 3.

@WoomyNNYes
Friends can join your lobby. But in this case, they get on to a random team. In a group, they are always on your team.

This Golden Rotation of grizzco weapons in Salmon Run is epic!!🤣

Thanks @Budda! I saw you had EVP 710.🤣 I started in pro 1, but with all the newbs I get here in the US, I'm not sure I'll get too far into EVP. I got to pro 3 now, we'll see.

@WoomyNNYes Do you recall setting up a room for friends last night, or did you just end up searching for a Turf War battle without picking the friends option?

@MarioLover92 I just play solo.

@WoomyNNYes Ok gotcha, I pretty much do the same anytime I hop back into the game.

@WoomyNNYes
Yea. I'm trying to get the gold badge for that stage. And it's easy! It's just a little time-consuming. I'm at 740 right now. Hoping to get to 999 tomorrow.

Btw. I'm prepared for the new banners and suits! Got over 600 silver and 100 gold scales!

@Budda Holy! Moly! That's all just solo queuing Salmon Run?

I made it to EVP, but never beat the king salmonid the 4-5 times I got them this weekend.

I got so spiteful with newbs, I changed my splatoon title for a bit to "Better-Than-You VP".😆 But that felt toxic, so I changed it back to my fave, "Cosmic VP". Have you gotten a "Salmon Run" or "Salmon Runner" title yet? That still eludes me.

@WoomyNNYes For real! This has got to be the best rotation ever. Those Grizzco weapons absolutely decimate Cohozuna and Horrorboros too.

@WoomyNNYes Yeah, I managed to get to Executive VP for the first time with this current rotation. Not getting good rewards for defeating Cohozuna/Horrorboros though, I need 1 more gold scale to unlock the tier 3 unlocks but I'm only getting bronze and rarely silver.

On a different note I've been seeing a lot more Side Order posts in the plaza than normal, looks like people are probably expecting a Gamescom reveal.

Welp, party's over. Looks like most of the veteran Salmon Run players in northeast US got their fill yesterday. I lost EVP, which isn't a shocker. There's virtually always teammates with 35-50 hours in the game. I can't carry them in EVP. I can't be the only one luring & taking out flyfish, fryfish, slammin lids, big shots etc. Sigh. After eight matches in a row of dismal teammates today, the fun is gone.

Finally spent enough scales such that there's no more question marks so I'm done with Salmon Run until Big Run next month. Big Run really isn't fun when your rank is too high and I'm currently at EVP 80.

The full catalog is now revealed, seems that some of the content is from past seasons.

It looks like there's no new gear which really sucks. What would you get if you already have that gear?
