Topic: Splatoon - OT

EXCITED BEYOND WORDS! lol XD

The new stage looks amazing!

@Blue_Blur: Yes I love when a new map arrives however it comes just 1 hr b4 I start work today!

Is it bad I'm most excited for the Splatoon update from the Nintendo direct today? I mean, Steamworld Heist looked cool and some others things but Splatoon updates actually affect me right now.

@Kinan: appearntly there's a way to load backup saves to reroll but it's a bit of a punk move.

Anyone want to squad for a bit? TC is the mode I believe

@Jorjaymad-6715: I hadn't heard of it before, but if what you referred to is what @MasterWario described, it sounds really lame. Turning the game on and off to load a savegame would be too much for me (although I do use savescumming in Football Manager, but for different reasons).
@Blue_Blur: Yeah, both new stages looked fresh and awesome!
@MasterWario: I was also happy to see the new stages and hear about the new gear, but the news about those four new Wii U Zelda games (and the amiibo) were more interesting for me. Also, the new Mario Maker web platform and the new footage of Starfox were really nice.

That new museum map looks perfect for hide and seek.

@MasterWario: It's not a bad thing... the Splatoon info was the best part for me, too! lol XD A lot of the stuff they talked about is a long way away, so I'm really only truly excited for Splatoon at the moment.

Will anyone be on when the stage first comes into rotation?

@Blue_Blur: I am but on Turf War. I want to learn it before jumping into rank.

@Jorjaymad-6715: I would, but I don't really like Hammerhead Bridge for TC. I'll be playing TW with a friend, or we could play private battles! @Blue_Blur and the others: Would you like to play?

@shani: Can't now, sorry. I'll be on next rotation though.

@shani: @Blue_Blur: im down for private next rotation also.

@Kinan: Actually it's not that odd at all. You should take a look at the ability probabilites of all the clothing brands. Everyone (except a few) has a 5x chance for one specific sub ability.
But you can also get 3x the same sub ability without that. Random doesn't mean impossible.
Take a look at these links.

@ELI-ASH: I meant this rotation. Probably will play ranked or regular in the next rotation with the new map.

@shani: 4? Huh I must of missed some. Unfortunately I just played Twilight Princess for the first time last year, otherwise I'd definitely be excited for it.

@Kinan: There are certain rolls that are more common on clothes, like Krak-On I think is 5x more likely speed up, but yeah, if they have a whole gear set that's probably it.

Edit: Ninja'd

@MasterWario: TPHD, Spirit Tracks, Phantom Hourglass (both already released at 0 am CET) and Legend of Zelda U (although only short).

@shani: ok thats alright gonna do same.

Everyone should play the new stage asap cause if you wait till tomorrow. You'll probably get dominated easily.

@ELI-ASH: Pretty sure new map doesn't come out till tomorrow, looks awesome though..

@Jazzer94: Nope, the new map comes out in 1 hours and 23 minutes. Look at Splatnet. The other new map will be released one day later.
It was the same with Flounder Heights and Hammerhead Bridge, they also were released at 4 (now 3) am CET.
@ELI-ASH: Yeah that's what I did with Flounder Heights and Hammerhead Bridge. It's actually exciting to see the players react to new stages. It gives you the feeling of exploration, too.

Site is undergoing maintenance now, maybe the stage won't be up, we'll see soon enough.

@shani Oh sweet! I've always wanted to try out Phantom Hourglass!

@MasterWario: It was up there (at least until) right before the Direct started. It would surprise me if they would change the rotation at last minute. Surely the maintenance has other reasons.
Yeah, I also always wanted to try out Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks, just played the former a bit and... WTF, it had an online mode (called battle mode)?!

@Jazzer94: @MasterWario: The game is updating!
