Topic: Splatoon 3

@MarioLover92 I actually don’t love Aquasonic lol! Ripstop and Go on the other hand…? I love that one!

@MarioLover92 Yeah, H2Whoa are so good! I think the best way I could describe them is that they feel like songs you'd hear in a modern Sonic game but Splatoon-ified (fitting then that one of them is quite literally called 'Aquasonic' XD) which gives them such a unique feel compared to the more laser-focused musical stylings of the other bands in the game, absolutely love them!

@WoomyNNYes
Thank you so much!

North america region:
The Splatoon 3 anniversary/splatfest article has gone live (with the deep cut banners) via the Splatoon 3 channel in switch news.

@CaleBoi25 Ah yeah Ripstop & Go is a great one for sure. Aquasonic gets the slight edge for me... if I had to describe it, it's got a more optimistic kind of sound, which is why I like that one. I've also always liked Liquid Sunshine for a similar reason.

@Fizza They do sound like they would fit in a Sonic game! I've always loved music from the Sonic series so I feel right at home when one of the two new songs start playing.

Oh, good! Was waiting for my Frye banner!

What do you mean?

@WoomyNNYes Huh that's weird... when I turned on my Switch and started the game (I forgot the banners came out until I finished one round), that news article with the Deep Cut banners didn't show up at all. It only appeared after I closed the game, then I was able to redeem the banners. Oh well, better late than never.

@Snatcher Did that article not show up for you? It didn't for me at first, it came up after I was done playing.

@MarioLover92 Oh woomy means the splatfest right? I thought they meant the profile banners my bad lol.

@Snatcher If the article got buried, open switch news & serach for splatoon 3 channel articles, and you should find the article from yesterday, September 5th, regarding Splatoon 3's anniversary splatfest. There's a button in the article to retrieve 3 deep cut banners for splatfest.

Disregard, if you figured it out.

I searched youtube for Splatoon 2 longplay/walkthroughs, and surprisingly, finding a playthrough that used motion controls is a bit of a challenge.

Just ordered splatoon 2 on ebay for the story mode, and it can arrive anywhere from october 3rd to november 29th... Side order could release before this arrives

@BingleyBongley Do you have the NSO Expansion Pack? You get Octo Expansion free of charge if you do

@BingleyBongley Why does it take a 1-2 months to arrive?🤣 (no wrong answer, just curious)

No, but I'm definitely getting octo expansion.

I live fairly far north in canada, so stuff usually takes a while to arrive, but not this long.

@WoomyNNYes Oh my goodness I didn’t know this! Thank you for telling me!

Does anyone else play like this?🤣

This player clowned on us. I've seen a player clown on me like this before. That time they were using sploosh-o-matic, this time it's aerospray. If anyone can replicate this play style, I'm sure it's fun. I think I get what's going on, but I can't quite move as well as they do with the same setup.

Their gear: 2 mains Swim Speed Up, 2 chunks Swim Speed Up, and 1 main of Special Power Up - that's it.

Replay code: R9HF-6PTF-VCGQ-MLSQ If you watch this replay code, this aerospray player is on the other team. ^{You can also watch me try to shoot them and fail to land a hit.}

@WoomyNNYes I will definitely download that replay code!

@WoomyNNYes It’s Turf Wars, I’m not surprised this goes on. I can’t recall what’s faster for traveling, though, holding ZL constantly or only pressing it when you need to swim. I would think the latter unless you’re sub-strafing, which I didn’t see any evidence of (based off the clip). I’m surprised there’s no ink resistance either considering how the RNG from the droplets could easily betray you but I guess it’s not a concern when trolling.

Is that not sub strafing in the beginning of the clip above, at 0:02 - 0:04?

Edit: I guess I see better what's going on. A lot of that fast directional changing (like circling around the player with charger) is possible because, like with sub strafing, holding ZL and repeatedly pressing ZR (going in and out of squid form) cancels directional momentum, allowing a quicker change of direction.

Ink resistance, "not a concern when trolling". Well said, @masterLEON. It's funny because that's how it looks.🤣
