big run soon

>>527283701
keep us posted

is this a good fit for the rattler or no?
i feel like there are better pants/boots to use but idk what

No fatties allowed beyond this point

>>527283801
Shredded leggings

>>527284076
ah, yeah that looks a lot better

taking this beeb to go see monster trucks

Barazushi had better kits than Emberz.

>>527283801
all of your fits suck

Might run this look for the new rusty wiper, feels fitting.

>>527283801
I feel this chestpiece only really looks right with the boots they come with.

>>527284458
why did you respond to yourself kold?

>>527283801
Ask sneakysnake but she blocked you

>>527284743
me responding to myself hihihi

>>527284727
what about these, better than the octoleet or worse?
i really don't wanna use multiple stuff from the same set if i can.

>>527283801
>he's still on Switch 1

You all dress like shit.

>>527284727
That set is either you're costplaying as Jagi or you're not. It doesn't mix well with anything.

>>527285264
i don't have a capture card (yet), i'm just uploading from the app

>>527283801
>>527285228
I like the octoboots better.

>>527285228
The tako boots fit better.
>>527285284
True. Ironically the boots themselves kinda work with some other pieces, like the hackerman jacket.

>>527285628
>>527285739
ok, thanks for the feedback
now to make the right abilities for this thing

>>527285739
That smt 1 character look

>>527285813
it's a mini splatling if you dont know how to gear for it don't bother if you're bandwagoning

duplicate kits we got in this pack:
>splash
>dread
>h3
>stamper
>pbrush
>stamper
>rapid pro
>dynamo
over a quarter of the pack, and doubling the number of duplicates in the game

>>527285983
well yeah, it's mostly just RSU and the usuals, i know that
i just don't know how much sub power i should be throwing on for the beakons

>>527286263
one

>>527286263
One or two subs are enough, more than that is meme territory.

>>527286263
>the usual
you have no idea what you're talking about just go back to the nzap crutch

>>527286326
>>527286543
gotcha, thanks

Seeing what MKW did, I'm curious as to how all the splatoon stages fit into a cohesive world map

>>527286263
Whenever running a beakon weapon I always use 1 main, sometimes 2, but even just 1 main significantly increases the jump speed

>>527287820
Raiders will either be open world or feature a really big overworld to connect the stages together. Resource gathering seems like a possible new feature, so I'm assuming there will be a lot of stuff to find and collect as well

>>527287870
the other two people said to run 1 sub so i think ill listen to them instead

>>527287820
all the ones from 1 and 2 are in and around inkopolis
all the ones from 3 are in and around splatsville
salmon run maps are somewhere in the salmonid zones
grand festival bowl is somewhere in the splatlands
There that's all of them

>>527287870
a main seems a little much, especially for something like mini that wants to go fast

>>527288646
>meaning it's probably better to save that main slot for run speed
forgot to add that...

>>527287820
Splatoon 1 and 2 were in Inkopolis, Splatoon 3 is far away in the Splatlands. Though even in those games some of the stages were way off from where the hub area plaza was. Playing Splat 3 and getting Splat 1 stages means your characters are travelling hundreds of kilometres to be where the stages are in between matches.

>>527286135
Surprising how half-assed a lot of these kits feel. It's like they wanted to give these that specific special or sub but couldn't think of what to pair them with so they went "fuck it let's copypaste this kit we already have." Pretty telling when some of these dupes have the exact same points per special as the weapon they copied them from (190p booyah bomb, really?).

>>527288838
I'd guess in canon they aren't actually playing match after match every single day
Probably at most a few a day, making a few hours in between for travel not unreasonable

>>527288838
sure feels that way when it takes 3 minutes or more to find a match sometimes

>>527288534
>>527287820

Imagine if Nogami honestly thinks he can get away with forcing players to play Splatoon 3 for another 3+ years before Splatoon 4 comes out.

>>527289483
This is just Tokyo

>>527289573
that's clearly what he's doing
why else would they increase the freshness cap, introduce a new matchmaking style, and keep running splatfests/big runs?

>Skipped splat 3 figuring splat 4 would be an early switch 2 game
>they're doing a spinoff instead
oh well

>>527290078
Splat 3 is better than 2, it's just that the launch period was so bad it turned away so many people

>>527290229
lmao

>>527289573
I hope he is. He needs to really get busy in the kitchen for Splat4

git gud, grandpa

>>527290405
they call it engagement based matchmaking but from what i can see everyone is quitting the game

NOTHING
WRONG

>>527290405

Decapitate all OtH fans

>>527290405

>>527290405
>woomy is less cute
shit take

>>527291205
i never understood what this shit is that covers the neck

>>527291167
I'd take shit kits with good matchmaking over shit kits with shit matchmaking.

>>527290520
splat with cooler is dumb. i don't want it to be slow, i quite like playing fast, i just want fast to be a reward for setup and skill, not a "lmao i drank insurance juice, now i get to do stupid shit and get a slap on the wrist at most instead of full bore caning for being an insolent little fuck"
risk-reward game in splat3 is too skewed towards reward, because it's designed to be played by underaged dopamine junkies
>>527290532
ebmm works wonders on, again, underaged dopamine junkies. the old guard is quitting, while schoolkids with too much time and too little critical thinking keep spinning the handle thinking their input actually matters

Would be nice to kinda build your plaza with aesthetic stuff in that matter. Just something to blow woomy bucks on to make your plaza feel more unique

>>527292252

We could have more shops with alternate stock but Nogami hates sovl.

>>527292038
But every day is Callie day.

>>527292454
>play turf war

there's your problem play a single set of series and ask yourself if kids are still playing this game

ps enjoy the absolute state of series matchmaking while you're at it, I lost three games over a set to three different teams that had all four players end the match with a KDA above 2

the game is totally fucked it's ridiculous

>>527292038
Callie sucks
not in a good way either

>doesn't even quote the thread
I meant something a little small, not like an entire island or town
>>527292252
Precisely, perhaps they give you little badges to show your love of the community or something
Alternatively this could be a local gallery where the more you donate, the better it becomes and the more art you get to see

Imagine this is the in-universe magazine ad for the new .96, your character goes into the plaza all excited to try out the new weapon kit and then they get assaulted by the longest Sheldon yap session yet.

your feedback has been heard

Stop name dropping

It's kind of embarrassing how bad the schizo is at pretending to be multiple people

>>527299283

>>527301436
System update?

I'm newer to the game after buying a Switch 2 and a bundle of Splatoon 2 & 3.
Where do I start?
Can I still play Splatoon 1?
Should I use gyro? Is it worth it?
Are there differences between the 2 classes?
Who are these people I keep seeing in here? Kold, Ballin, Sneakysnake?

>>527304287
Had me till the last question. Good job

>>527302716
>where do i start
Splatoon 2 is basically dead, play 3's story campaign to get a hang of the controls.
>can you still play splatoon 1
Yes, with pretendo. But you need a NNID and a functioning Wii U to access that.
>should i use gyro
Yes.
>are there differences between the two classes
Do you mean inklings and octolings? There is no difference, pick whichever you want.
>who are these people
Pay no attention to schizofaggotry.

>>527304287
if you care about the lore, splatoon 2
you can't play splatoon 1 officially anymore, use pretendo
gyro is good, but it's up to your personal preference
no
dw

>>527304287
Everyone is playing 3 now
1 is playable with homebrew and emulation
Yes
The game was designed to be played with gyro

>>527302116
I’m sorry Steve, it won’t happen again.

>>527304287
Just watch the the S1 story mode on YouTube. S2 in basically a copypasta of 1’s story mode. Play S2’s story and the Octo Expansion. Play S3’s story and the online. Side Order is alright, play it whenever. Go gyro or go home.

Chirpy Chips are like the Joy Division of the Splatoon world. Came in, dropped a few all time classics, and then vanished.

what is this schizo yapping about

>>527315390
she so silly

>>527315551
you're on the opposite polar of stupidity on the question

>>527315450
the trick to playing squeezer is to play it on literally anything but the official pro controller
its super stiff triggers really do make squeez painful to play
you don't need turbo, just a lighter trigger, like on a joycon or a cheap chink controller, then you can casually max out its fire rate without arthritis or even much of earthquake controls
>>527315551
more range than regular 3-liners
same 3 shots at same fire rate as pro for same ttk as zap, plus better mobility than pro, can comfortably fight at any range
elder god stock kit, wall with its range and immediacy is very hard to challenge
at worst above average in every single stat, at best- second or third best in class
no weaknesses other than mediocre ink efficiency

>>527316116
what are you saying esl schizo-kun

I love that they kept this animation for curlers

There's been a lot of 2+ DCs ever since this update.

>>527327195
It may prevent japs throwing whenever you have an english name. Notice how almost every good x rank player in these threads eventually changed their name to japanese characters because it was that prevalent of an issue.
They'd probably still somehow sniff you out, though.

How do you play this game without getting mad?
No matter how much I tell myself to just relax and enjoy shooting woomy ink game, 30 seconds into almost every match my inner Putz comes out. Sober, drunk, rested, sleepy, day, night, no matter what it's just such an infuriating experience.
I just want to enjoy a nice game...

>>527337309
I don't play games to relax.

really cool how a fully charged hydra aimed at a kraken is still not enough to repel it and prevent it from ending overtime

>>527338229
is this post supposed to add something to the discussion

>>527338452
yep

>>527338292
sorry, did you really just admit to attempting to inconvenience a special using your main? preposterous. i guess i'll have to entirely remove knockback from kraken in the next patch, and paste it loud and clear in the patch notes so nobody gets confused who's supposed to be the boss.

>making things up to get mad at
why do people do this

Why give a sniper a tank?

>>527339236
crab does nothing for a good charger player
it's for the ones who suck at aiming

>>527339353
so for Rainy, got it

>>527338701
it's not like kraken is near the top of the list of specials that instantly end overtime, that's just how tower control works

>>527337756
What do you play games for, then?
>>527337941
That's also hardly satisfying. Why can't there be a middle ground between a clueless tourist and a no life tryhard? Between stomping and getting stomped? Why can't the matches be balanced?
I usually get to play at least 30 minutes per day, on average somewhere between 1 and 2 hours. I'm not clueless, I'm just very average. I'd like to play fair matches with and against other very average players. I can't be the only very average player in the world to match with.

>>527339236
What else would you give to splat charger? It's the only special that could've been better than inkstrike.

>>527339682
give something else a third kit that actually needs it

Would a charger with sensor/screen be absolute dogshit or just retarded?

>>527339674
>he's mad after suggestions
this is a you issue for sure

>>527339870
its a gimmick that might work on squiffer/boozler but I dont think anything else

>>527339236
because contary to popular belief, chargers aren't supposed to be 50 miles deep into your turf being cowards and barely touching the enemy turf with the tip of their range
a good sniper is an active sniper, and an active sniper has the same offensive profile as a crab, just with less sustain, hard power and cover abuse

>>527340234
it works really well on squelchies desu

>>527340531
>Know exactly where enemy is behind wall
>still can't kill them because it's squelchers

>>527339870
Just retarded because the sub/special synergy is there. But charger doesn't wanna chuck sensors, that's a squiffer thing (and they lowkey hate it).

The amount of weapons that one-shot the very fucking frame they spot you makes this game extremely unfun

>>527340778
splatoon's low tts and quick respawning is core to its indentity, that's why people who insist cooler is worse than ink armor will always be coping

Why does turf war feel less casual than anarchy open?

>>527341197
Because it's the whole map rather than a singular objective.

bigrun? ACTIVATE THE PASSWORD LOBBY. LOBBY NOTIFICATIONS? ON.

>>527340376
this is why sniperwriter is not a true charger, but rather a species more closely related to the genus of that of the common jet squelcher

if you have enough awareness and control and don't let them get a shot on you, they won't oneshot you
it's splatoon 101, if you don't want to get shot, simply don't give enemy an opportunity to shoot you, or take it from them if they have it
>>527340952
>splatoon's low tts
yes
>and quick respawning
in the context of a 5-minute match, small maps and universally good mobility? splat's normal respawn time is an eternity. that's what makes it fun, everything is dangerous, and punishment is severe, so you have to play smart. that's why quick respawn shortening it breaks the game, the game's all about risk management, and if you have a tool to lower the risk you are sidestepping the game's core
>>527341427
no, snipewriter is a splatling mimic
good jet is more aggressive than a good charger, in fact, a good jet should be an opportunist and actively seek engagements at all times to pull its weight

>>527343334
My nigger, I get the drop on them, I shoot them before they shoot me, but they're able to turn around and one-shot me in the span of a fucking millisecond before my second shot even comes out. This game is bad

>got gold with randos

>>527343667

>>527343524
you didn't get the drop on them if they had time to turn around and shoot you. they knew you were coming. a zap would do the same to you, by the way, this game has short ttks for a reason- to discourage direct engagements like that, they are supposed to end in trades. set them up for guranteed failure if you want them gone, don't expect them to fail by themselves.

>Forgot about Big Run and to transfer Splatoon 3 data to my Switch 2.

Is it true the Switch 2 Pro Controller's gyro is noticeably better?
I thought Splatoon 1 on Wii U was great but the gyro sucked on thr Switch.

I wonder what team-buffing special nintendo will try to implement next game only for it to end up being completely centralizing once again

>>527344215
they'll buff cooler to have an exodia effect
if all four players are in cooler's activation range at once, they win the game on the spot, regardless of score or timers

>joey got blob
blessed

>>527344215
special that instantly deploys tiny sprinkler drones to all your teammates that keeps the area around them turfed
bonus effect is that it reveals all sharkers on your team to the enemy

>>527344215
Hopefully they'll ditch woman specials and make them all more selfish next game.

i hope cooler returns for splatoon 4 just so this anon seethes even harder

>>527344731
the most effective form of support in this game is still just turfing your teammates' feet when they are in range of you while the enemy isn't but I feel like I'm the only motherfucker who does it

>>527344818
this mattered in old games, but now everything has free foot coverage and not just sploosh and aerospray so might as well just shoot the opponent with your teammate

I will do it on Sunday.

>barely any kits have it this late in the game's life
>too many weapons with midair penalties like charging and accuracy
>obvious weapons like splash and flux don't have it
>most weapons with it have a blatantly better alt kit
The only ones you see being used are stamper, squiffer, and tetras.

>>527345362
I think I prefer it this way.

how to trigger an /ink/er

>>527345959
zip should just give the squiffer buff to every charge mechanic, like just for the duration. maybe perfect air accuracy too, just so you cant really be picky with what you give it too. something like zip mini would be cool

Can I buy it now or is it too late and I am better off waiting for Splatoon 4?

>>527349987
If you find the gameplay loop fun, it's pretty easy to get back into. I only got Splat 3 last year and so much more stuff got added, it's still kinda fresh.

>>527349987
The new update on Wednesday gave us 30 new kits and Urchin Underpass came back. Raiders has no release date and we don't know if it will be multiplayer. We still have daily rooms. There's still fun to be had. You should decide if you're willing to blow 200 hours on Splatoon 3.

>>527395886
Octofaggots love to make everything about themselves
They couldn't have even waited until the 8th anniversary

What's so special about the number 3?

>>527396362
epic reference to splatoon 3

>>527396362
It's pee and poo all in one.

>>527396362
Holy Trinity

>>527396089
What's the problem squigger?

Really liking the new dapple kit desu
>but that’s anons gear!
This isn’t nu horizons with clothing customization. Nobody is completely unique.

>>527398471
cute woomy

>>527398471
Whose gear? I'm also using it for my cowboy weyyo now.

>>527398471
Only schizos who don't play the game care when you use someone else's gear.

>>527398871
>rang
>saber
>various footfaggots
ur welcome

>>527399506
Oh you mean the clothes.

I literally cannot perform better because of the slowdown on the Switch 1. Playing the big run at 999 is unbearable. Fuck you nintendo

>>527389872
what pun? i don't get it

>>527395274
Since that's all from Nintendo, blame them for not drawing Frye sexy enough

>>527400318
ika is squid

>>527400397
i still don't get it

>>527400481
Retard squibba.. mechanic.. mechan-ika.. combining mechanic and squid in Japanese..

>>527400347
noon Frye? Grandfest Frye? there's a bunch

>>527399506
more people should use the headband its good and versitile

>>527400538

shall be buying a Switch 2 for Raiders

>>527401663
big if true

>>527401663
too based for nu-Splatoon

>>527401663
Fake but a desperate attempt to drum up player activity if real

>>527401663
I'm still waiting for my Cap'n 3's gear e-mail.

>>527402263
what does this even mean

>>527402602
ぬ Splatoon

>>527402602
It was before your time

>>527402814
buzzwords, got it

>the update hype is already dead
We can't compete with Mario Kart...

>>527403220
It's not like it's a new game or anything...

>>527403220
Mario Kart is a party game anyone can pick up, Splatoon is only really relevant in Japan.

>>527403220
remember that one guy who said the new mario kart would flop

>>527403797
Probably the same guy who said the Steamdeck would destroy the Switch

BR?

>my team's charger
>1:3 k:d
>enemy charger
>aimbot god that can hit you at max range from any angle
literally every game

>>527406702
>feeds enemy charger easy kills
>enemy charger gets high k/d
waow

>>527406850
>feeds
waow

>>527407073
how else would you know that he's an aimbot god that can hit you at max range from any angle
that's something you can only prove experimentally

>>527407373
This looks like it was drawn by a pronoun faggot.

>>527407560
>t. shiver

>>527407560
>Big tits
>Male x Female
No? Death to all patternfags

>>527403797
the best part of switch 2 is watching the snoys melt down and seethe over it 24/7 on /v/

>>527407373
>male mechanic
gross

I'm so glad they didn't add any more slider weapons with the 3rd kits. Imagine even MORE flavors of AFK farming deadweights. Vanilla dread players cannot be sentient beings.

>>527407782
I found the post and...I hate the american fanbase lol.

>>527408839
I stand corrected. Retards must hang

>>527408839
Those lips look really bad on callie, wow.

>>527409008
that's her tongue

>>527408839
>>527409008
When will we get an idol with kissable lips?

only two days have passed and faggots are already back to playing their boring metaslop

>>527409846
We already have

ink is stored in the balls

>>527408839
>proship dni
>plays squid loli game
what compels people

I'm glad we got a new Stamper, but I'm a little disappointed on the new kit... bombsbombsbombs, boring.

I wanted a Stamper with dart and vacuum. Not "good", but would've been pretty fun and my one single main...

There's no reason to queue for anything other than series, according to Nintendo.

>>527410317
>dart

>>527410317
>dart
I hate chara so much for forcing this term.

>>527410317
>Stamper with dart and vacuum
anon
jet
>not sword
better than sword

>>527410317
Not even Jet players want it, I fail to see the fun in this kit on any weapon.

>>527410538
>Not even Jet players want it
i want the marker
marker is unironically better on jet than burst is
fuck the vaccuum though, i don't want vaccuum (but i deserve vaccuum for balance)

96 is fucking braindead now

i don't understand why the hate for angle shooter, looks like a longer ranged burst bomb to me

>>527411209
>now

>>527411209
>remember when we gave .96 damage up so it stacked it to 72 to combo into everything?
>and then very specifically nerfed it?
>and then un-nerfed it and gave it damage up again?
>now, we don't have damage up anymore, but let's give it a spammable sub with infinite range that does 40 damage so it can oneshot people again

>>527412110
those were the days

>>527412110
I saw very few of the leopard print .96 gals during the first day.

This is the way

>>527412465
well it just got (a single) use in the area cup finals because the cooler provider didn't want to use pencil on underpass

>>527410317
I hate chargerniggers so autobomb makes me happy.
