GungHo Threatens To Ban And Suspend Players For "Unsportsmanlike Behavior" In Ninjala

Is Ninjala worth getting into? I've only played it briefly and didn't have a clue what was going on but if I know there's a good game in there, I'll stick with it.

@OorWullie Same, played for 20 minutes, nice but just didn't caught my interest, but made me wanna play Splatoon again.

Sounds like bad game design. Rather than draconian measures the game should be balanced to reward and punish certain behaviors naturally, somehow.

Eh, if I buy a game and decide just to stand around in multi-player surely that's MY right, if I paid for the dang thing!

Uh what the F*ck they will ban you if you just run around now you cant call a truce or play around, This game is crap like who the hell doesn't let you keep a skin you use payed money for?

@impurekind Well the game is free, but even if it wasn't, players messing around or doing nothing, ruins the game for everyone else. It's a game based around team play and for it work, you need to have all your team mates onside. I play a lot of Rocket League and Splatoon and if you have one team mate not playing ball, then the match is more often than not a write off.

If a player quits or frequently disconnects in Rocket League and Splatoon, they get a temporary ban and told, they're ruining the game for others. So idling and unsporting behaviour should also be punished.

"You do as we tell you to, or we ban you"

I think this as long as the player isn't cheating, hacking or using harmful language ingame, they shouldn't be banned.

@OorWullie there is also death match to.

@Snatcher Hold up wait you don’t keep your skins?

@Nintendoforlife Not your weapons skins that you need jala to get and you get jala by buying it i used up all my jala on a weapon skins and i got to only use it one time.

@impurekind Ninjala is free you don't have to buy it...

Guys be careful, they have their guns loaded.

Good people that ruin games for other players get what they deserve

Cheaters is the sole reason why I never play competitive games online. Their loss.

@Snesionetty That's like every online game.

@Ryan_Again Yeah, because that worked so well in Splatoon.

I haven't observed any behaviors like this aside from a few who stand there doing nothing. My only real problem is the running around idling. What if I'm running around looking for a player to fight and the map is too big, or there aren't as many players in the lobby? Will that count as idling even though I'm actually playing?

Surely that's down to the Nintendo Online being absolute garbage?

@Snatcher yup

i only ever had one case of a teammate being completely idle the whole match who ive reported. honestly unless your some toddler who got a hold of the game i dunno why you'd ever only do one move or run around the stage doing nothing, matches take long enough to load and youre gonna waste time doing something as boring as that? lol

i find it hard to keep track of opponents doing bad conduct with how fast matches are and how hard it is to keep track of all your teammates, so good on the devs for hammering in the point to knock it off

Some of y'all need reading pointers. The blurb clearly points out that user reporting triggers the team to check out stuff. You really think there's hundreds of employees just sitting around watching your matches live, like some hall monitor?

@boxyguy huh, didn't know you used this site too

@Octohedgy I assume there's paid micro-transactions are the like? The point is still the same, that once you own a game I would think you should be able to play the style you prefer rather than the developer dictates, so long as you're not actually hacking the system or something like that. The example I would use is camping in an online fps: If I want to camp then I should not be forced to do otherwise (it's a legit tactic that is actually smarter 99% of the time than some tool running in guns blazing or bouncing around like a moron), outside of specific gameplay mechanics and systems built into the game that make it a bit more difficult or whatever. But gamers should not be being told how to play their games.

How about you F@@k off and let people play the darn game, I've never heard of it or played it but they sound really annoying bothering people who are trying to play it, your gonna ban them just because they're not playing the way you like lol

The “robotically” doing the same action is actually just the horrible servers lagging

My short experience with the game was there is only one thing to robotically do repeatedly. Get into a fight, mash buttons and hope for the best.

And how exactly do you plan to do that? If everyone who squid flopped got banned from Splatoon, there wouldn't be a game left!

@OorWullie
I would say so. I'm one of the only few people here though who seems to actually like it a decent amount.

Good, wish Splatoon would do the same. If people wanna play around you can do so PRIVATELY in your own lobby.

@geni53yr7 lol do you not know about good conduct when playing team based games, let alone ranked ones? if youre gonna pull the rest of your team's rank down for the sake of not playing the match, by all means get kicked

@somebread heyooo. are you from twitter? your name doesnt sound familiar

I'll just keep playing Splatoon.

@boxyguy knew you from tumblr actually lol

@somebread ohh i see lol. well if we're mutuals i forgot, still cant seem to find your name around!

I can't believe people play this, the only reason Ninjala is on my Switch is because of the price tag... the gameplay had me lost and confused.

@impurekind First of is a free game and second, big misconception most gamers have, you all usually miss the big long list of rules and documents that you willingly ignore agreeing to abide to said rules. Next time you should read something or look into it before buying, been a consumer only get you so far and ignorance is no excuse, especially with the interwebs at your finger tips =

@Quix See, the problem imo is actually consumers like you who just blindly accept whatever rules a company writes down without ever actually question whether said rules are even truly fair or in some cases even genuinely legal. People "accept" the rules because they basically have little choice, unless they don't want to enjoy anything ever, but that doesn't mean we should all just be mindless sheep doing whatever are command to do without ever questioning it. Our corporate "masters" are not perfect virtuous gods who will only do the very best by us forever--you know.

@impurekind This ^^

That's fine.

I don't take kindly to your threats. You just saved me so much time from ever playing it again with your pettiness on being unable to handle people since your little "game" is gone from my Nintendo Switch. I'm sure there's other people who don't take kindly to being threatened like this like I do. I wouldn't be surprised if people made the decision to abandon this game in absolute droves. You made your bed, now you can lay down in it with nobody ever returning to the game except the so-called "people" you claim to be throwing banhammers like it's going out of style at said "people".

@impurekind That's beyond the point, is not a matter of whither I agree with their rules or not, the point is that the second you accept or buy a companies game without reading their terms and services well don't be mad because you involuntarily agreed to their rules. You all act so self entitled but ignorance is no excuse when you got every resource available to you, don't like a companies rules don't buy their game nobody to blame but yourself at the end of the day =:3

@Quix Clearly you're ignorant as to how this works. No one reads the terms and conditions, and pretending they do is just commercially-brainwashed garbage. We often don't accept the terms and conditions, but we still do want to play games, so we are left with no choice but to click yes. Unless you seriously think the alternative of never buying any games, or indeed anything that might come with terms and conditions, is a reasonable choice for the average person these days, particularly the average kid-teenager, which would just make you even more ignorant of modern society.

@impurekind Think you missing my point, don't like don't buy simple as that, argue all you want =

@Quix Yeah, I might be missing your point, but you're missing thee point.
