@Blastcorp64 I hope that they will have a lot of features, they will need them to compete with the likes of Super Mario Bros. X which is a less-polished but more featured SMM for FREE. I don't know about scrolling levels but they have a lot of other cool features, I know that you can add a great many items by messing with what's possible.
This will be awesome Probably I always like designing Mario levels and scoured the internet for the tools to make more levels Finally Nintendo made their own version!!!
@Koniec I know what you mean, I still play the game too, but the level cap is a little annoying because you don't feel as if you can make more progress any more - you've reached the maximum level of skill etc.. Apart from trying to get to A+...
I have a feeling that the E-Litre 3K Scope will be one of the most overused weapons, at least when it first comes out. I already see such a high proportion of E-Litre 3Ks to normal chargers that I'm sure this will mean chargers everywhere! :/ Not good for me as a .52 Gal player but hopefully the scope will mean I can kill them more easily.
@Jazzer94 Cheap budget consoles have worked in the past (sort of) like with the Gameboy, selling better than it's competitiors despite not having a colour screen as it was cheaper.
@Lastar Maybe do both? Because otherwise, uh, maybe you would sort of die. Which wouldn't be a problem if it wasn't for the fact it might hamper your Splatoon playing.
@chardir are you sure? That's interesting... when I first joined the game in my first couple of matches I was in a match with lvl 15+'s. And I once saw a Lvl 1 in a match with Lvl 20's.
@Kaihaku I find that chargers function best on Underpass and Warehouse - not sure about the new maps like kelp dome and bluefin yet though. I notice rollers are now very unpopular, but I wonder if there's map where they're particularly effective?
@DreamOn Well it's the same as always really, except when you participate in the Turf Wars normal game mode people on your team are always people who voted for the same option as you, and the other team is made of players from the other option. At the end of the 24 hours you receive Super Sea Snails based on your performance and you can give these to Spyke to reroll/improve your gear.
@Spoony_Tech it wasn't nerfed, it was buffed. I think. at the moment sometimes walls seem to get in the way and reduce ink coverage, despite the fact that the Inkstrike is coming down from above, and this is what it's going to fix, I hope.
@jozefm yeah, matchmaking has some issues. I am C+ now but not long ago I was C and was matched with all Cs except for one player who was B-. Needless to say, the winner was no longer "the most skilled team" but "the team with the B-".
I personally have never had problems with false bans, and have only rarely seen troll-like content. I have seen a fair few people complaining about false bans but I think that them being this strict is good because it will persuade more parents to allow their children onto Miiverse. And, essentially, Miiverse is designed to be safe for kids.
This is another cool blaster weapon type. I wish they would release more balanced weapons (i.e. balanced stats) however, because there seems to be a lot of very specified (i.e. all points in one stat) weapons but not many balanced ones save for the Splattershot and other starters.
@BLPs You wouldn't believe the stigma against Nintendo where I am (in the UK). It's like Wii U doesn't even exist; I don't know anyone who (apart from a couple of people) when asked wouldn't say that the Wii U is rubbish and childish. Really gets to me sometimes.
@RainbowGazelle Agreed. Maybe LEGO games could be fun - they used to be - but first they need to get rid of all the bugs and then actually make something new and unique for once. There was this amazing bug once in my LEGO Harry Potter, which said that I had 0% progress on a file I had been playing on for the last 6 months.
