Topic: Splatoon - OT

I am having such a hard time ranking up. I have the worst luck with teams. I just had my best match yet, 23 kills 5 deaths, and we still lost.

@MisterMan: I'm stuck on C+ and it's doing my head in.Whenever I get close to B- our team lose 3 or 4 on the bounce regardless of how well I've performed,just bad luck I guess.I'll get there eventually but when I do I imagine holding on to it will be even harder than getting there.

Huh, nice timing on this one. July 17th, 2015 is the 60th Anniversary of the opening of Disneyland. Rollercoasters vs. Water Slides seems like a fitting contest for around then. In any case, I'm with rollercoasters all the way!

Since it's summer, with all this hot weather, I just kinda feel like a water slide right now. Plus, like Splatoon, there is splashing involved

I honestly don't care. If it's purple vs green shirt, I'd rather wear the purple shirt, but then again I find the purple ink a bit harder to tell when my team has missed spots on the map, so maybe I should choose green.

@ELI-ASH: Woah, I never heard that. DJ Octavio must have really met his demise!

@Nicolai: No that's impossible. Captain Cuttlefish has him kept trapped in a globe.

@Aromaiden: Yeah, but that must have been painful for him! Maybe demise was the wrong word to use.

From tomorrow morning you'll be able to play on Moray Towers in #Splatoon!

Nice!

Maybe I should play tomorrow then. I haven't played this game in 3 weeks.

@ELI-ASH: That is creepy, but I found very creepy also the music of the tower in TowerControl.
In a match it doesn't sound much horror, but just try to jump on the tower in recon-mode where there is no stage music, it sound like something very terrible will happen any moment to your inkling T_T;;;

you know i doubt this would happen but they should do (Team Mario vs Team Bowser)
but back to this, i'm going with roller coaster (i have a strange feeling that there going win...)

I'm guessing 60-40 roller coaster over water slide. Would have been a nice choice for 4th of July though, but maybe not so much when it was originally scheduled for June 18th.

So will we get warehouse, rig and arrowwana mall as our 3 stages for 24 hours again? I might just skip it entirely if the warehouse is 1 of the 3. It's turf war, everybody knows how to play it, we should get some better stages. Actually the rig isn't too bad, lots of area to ink. Maybe Port mackerel instead of the warehouse, it's still lame but at least it's much bigger. And kelp dome. The new tower level I'm assuming won't be in, doesn't seem turf war friendly.

Roller coaster, of love, ooh ooh ooh

@rjejr: Curious why you dislike the Warehouse so much?I actually don't mind it,it can get a bit boring after 4 hours but still I've had some great battles on it.It can get pretty mental at times trying to gain control of the middle.Its probably the best map for staging a late comeback too.I used to dislike the Rig but it's grown on me..Still not a fan of it for Splat Zones though,the spawn point is too far from the zone.If yer whole team gets picked off,preventing ye from making a super jump it's hard to make a comeback.I like all the maps actually,they all offer something different ,Bluefin Depot and Blackbelly Skatepark are my favourites though.

@Aozz: even better, have two competitions clash. I'd actually be interested to see who'd come out on top if a Splatfest was, say, Mario vs. Zelda. I know I would actually have to take some time to decide on which team to throw in with on that one.

@OorWullie: - "Curious why you dislike the Warehouse so much?I"

It's too small and boring. Tower control really seemed pointless, same for splat zones. And we played it so much over the 3 testfires I've seen it enough. Port Mackerel is kinda like warehouse but w/ 2 splat zones in ranked mode it becomes much more frantic. And after playing all the cool stuff in the single player - moving platforms, invisible walls and floors, ink fountains, sponges - well the warehouse plays even more dull. What I don't get is why everybody dislikes Arowana mall so much, it's like the warehouse but w/ water, better viewing side areas and ramps. Size wise though it's even more similar to the warehouse than Port Mackerel but w/ the other ideas added in for fun.

@Nicolai People are speculating the death cries are Octarians dieing because you took their last source of energy,the zapfish.

I still haven't got my Super Sea Snails from the Splatfest.
