Topic: Splatoon 3

I think I saw the first cheater/hacker today.
He had the badges for being "level 999" with his regular player level and in Table Turf. He also had the badge for 10 million lifetime Grizzco points.
Looked at his playtime. Only had roughly 300 hours...

Oh, you mean Bob? Lol, I had the same thing, that was the guys name.

@Budda That's wild, regard the likely-hacker.

I'm mildly pleased with my current locker setup. I landed a Lucky Salmonid Neon Sign from Hotlantis, and I made a stream of small salmonid neon fish falling from the sky into his mouth.

I'm also pleased with my tag title for the halloween season, "Evil Salmon Runner". Although, I'm a bit disappointed at how hard it is to read titles on the Splatooween banner. That orange font doesn't stand out very well. https://i.postimg.cc/WbJYsxvX/locker-banner.jpg

@Wolfleaf I hate Marooner's Bay. Egg toss has made it more manageable, but it's still the worst SR stage. When it was announced to be returning, I saw a lot of people excited and I was like "Have you guys not played that stage in Splatoon 2?!" However you can do well on it with a good team. I got paired with an amazing team of randoms on it Monday late night and we killed it. Win after win and we took down Horrorboros both times we got him. They were such a great team.

Today and tomorrow Salmon Run: Grizzco wild card rotation @ Gone Fission Hydroplant.

I don't know how I feel about that stacked on top of Splatoween/Splatfest.

Splatoween starts today!

I have a feeling this fest is going to be just Skeletons vs Ghosts considering how Zombie isn’t popular

OMG.. The Splatoween victory music with the evil laugh at the end.. Awesome! 🎃👻

The halloween music in the lobby & in matches is great! I've got to go rip this Splatoween lobby song from youtube if I can find it. Wow. XD It's a real shame this music is for one weekend.

Wow. I got three 10x battels within my first five matches. Unreal. Only won one of them. BUT I finally got the Deep Cut badges of Shiver, Frye, Big Man, which you get for three 10x battles, if I remember right.

Deepers Creepers Splatoween lobby song. Apparently there's a Day 1 version and a Day 2 version? The beginning of the day 1 version is my favorite, I think.

@Croctopus Last splatfest, team Frye had most votes at the beginning of Splatfest, just like now, and we didnt have the the most votes by the end of Splatfest. So, it could change.

This is adorable.

Luckily it turns out I can do Splatoween and I am so glad I didn’t miss it! Nintendo really put in all the little touches. I tend to overreact but let’s just say that as I found the swirly ink, old time filters, etc., I had to repeatedly and verbally tell myself to calm down! 😅

I’m loving the little touches for Splatoween like the ghosts floating about, old timey camera filter, evil laughs etc.

I had a great start in this Splatfest!
16 Wind and 6 Losses. Three of them were x10 matches and I won all of them. 😁
The Tri-Colour map this time around is Brinewater Springs. What a interesting map for that mode. Can't wait!

@WoomyNNYes Sort of reminds me a bit of G.O.A.T. by Polyphia. At least in parts.

Maybe it’s a superficial comparison, but they both have a creepy music box, chonky guitars and a generally spooky vibe.

Deepers Creepers definitely goes deeper into Halloween territory though!

@WoomyNNYes There's also Eggstra Work next weekend. It's weird that they clumped everything this season together in early September and this late October/early November period.

@CaleBoi25 @jump I love those Halloween touches that they did as well. That evil laugh for when you win matches is awesome!

I think I figured out why Splatfests felt more fresh in Splatoon 2. Back in Splatoon 2 there were monthly content updates and each Splatfest had its own Shifty Station so each Splatfest had 2 new stages. Meanwhile with Splatoon 3, the content updates are every 3 months and most Splatfests didn't have a unique stage either so sometimes Splatfests felt kind of samey.

I feel that the Zelda Splatfest and Splatoween are the most fresh ones so far. I could also easily see Frosty Fest (if it happens) and Final Fest joining that list.

I’m worried about Tri being all mirrors tonight for me (team ghost here)

Haven't had the time to comment on it due to being at work for most of the day (and then immediately launching into my first playthrough of Dead Space once I got back XD) but holy hell, they absolutely knocked it out of the PARK with Splatoween this year. All the environmental flourishes, the variations to pre/post match screens and the music? OH MY LORD THE MUSIC

It's been a blast so far and, while I unfortunately haven't been able to play much so far, I'm definitely going to be putting in a ton of effort for Team Ghost on Day 2 (where I've heard there's supposedly a new version of Anarchy Rainbow as well so that should be great).

@luckyseven I'm on Team Skeleton and so far I've only played against Team Zombie once. I thought Zombie would be popular because Shiver but it seems not to be the case.
