Topic: Splatoon - OT

I don't mind. We can do private battles, if you want.

After this news update

@pikminfan22 want to try out some Ranked Battle, again?

Nice, we're done now.

@pikminfan22 well, I'm gonna go now. Too much Splatoon may actually turn me into a squid!

Nice playing with you. You are a good Splatter!

Japan Splatfest results:

Team Boke were the minority with 43% votes compared to Tsukkomi which had 57%.
Win percent was pretty close, but team Tsukkomi had the lead with 51% to Boke's 49% which led to a victory for team Tsukkomi with 261 points compared to Boke's 239 points.

I was team Boke Got to the second highest rank so I received 10 super sea snails at least.

So surprisingly some info was found out about Splatoon by data mining SMM. Apparently SMM contained a lot of Splatoon's Beta Development Images, and it shows the original designs and concepts for some of the weapons and gear.

@pikminfan22: According to the Leaker (NWPlayer123) the tennis ball was the original design for suction bombs and the bowling bowl was the disruptor..

If anybody wants to team up let me know.

I don't know if anyone else already asked about this (I obviously can't just view over 350 pages for that), but I'm really getting annoyed at how unbalanced the regular battle sessions are. simply, most players have under level 10, but almost every session there's a player with level above 20, 30 and even 50. this just makes the game completely hard to enjoy, since if you are on a team with the high level player then you're almost guaranteed to win

I always find that extremely frustrating unless (of course) the level 50 splatter is on your team.

@TheTeaStirrer: anyway, I hope this gets fixed soon enough. the game was really fun otherwise, but since level 4 this just happened way too often

Yeah. Maybe in a new update, Nintendo could add two different options for playing Turf War: playing with people at the same level, or playing with people at every level. But then again, you'd have to take into account the fact that one option may be used a lot more than the other, which could mean one of them takes ages to find a match for.

I found this drawing of someone's personal design for an Octoling Boy and I thought it was simply too good and nice not to share.

I whent 6-0 on tower today ^_^ Im finally B rank. I woulda continued but Moray can be won/lost so easily i didnt want to ruin a good thing.

I was doing pretty well myself today till the modes switched. Then it was more back and fourth. Got right back into A+. Lets see if I can make that push to S this time.

@ELI-ASH Remind me to stay far away from you with that blaster lol. You're good with that thing! Oh and what an epic way to get into the next class by an overtime victory!

@Spoony_Tech: yea i was pretty sure my team was gonna lose that match but i figure one last push wouldn't hurt. I guess the enemy team were prematurely celebrating their victory XD

Matchmaking are mainly made by playing style, not necessarily by level. There are high level players who are bad, and new players who are good.

Matchmaking where there are obvious mismatches, such as level 6 players are matched with a level 45 players (and similarly in ranked, where A+ ranked are joined with B ranked) are likely caused by timeouts (=not enough players of the same skill level were currently found to form a match). During the previous Japanese splatfest, I sometimes got terrible matchmaking in random Turf War, but usually I get matched with only level 30+ players.

Try a new lobby if the matchmaking in he current lobby gets bad.

@jariw: I find it odd they can determin a play style any sooner then Level 10. I mean really, a level 3 player could bee well only played about 4 games.

Finally, finally got into S rank today. It only took about 9 tries over the course of the last 3 weeks and even falling all the way back into the mid A- too at one point. Btw this point system is still whacked out. I should've been at S far sooner as none of it makes any sense.
