jivjov posted:Because its not a waste of time, its not disorienting, and its only on the gamepad because last I checked none of the other Wii U controllers have a screen on them. The screen has a screen on it which is where every other shooting game puts its minimap with a toggle button.

Is this coming out at midnight tonight? I think Mario Kart 8 was on the Eshop at midnight on the East coast.

Spacebump posted:Thanks. The OP had the 28th so I got confused. Sorry, when I google for release date everything says the 28th so I put that in, but I just changed it to be 29th in the OP to be more clear because that's actually correct. It should be available at midnight, and even midnight like East Coast or European or something. I can't remember the last eShop game I got but I feel like it was available pretty early. Maybe that was 3DS though...

The map being on the game pad is cool and good because it splits your attention, demanding more of you to maintain map awareness

Lemming posted:I'm going to go for speed in human and squid form initially. I think it's very important. Ideally I think you'd want to min-max your teams, although until the competitive pre-made mode comes out you won't really be able to do that. But ideally you'd have like 2 rollers with all the +speed and +ink they can get, and then like 1 blaster and 1 charger each with lots of +damage to kill dudes. Then push the enemy back into their base and keep killing them while your rollers run around painting everything. Monster w21 Faces posted:Why isn't this thread called 'Goons in Splatoons'? Because it was made like a year ago at E3  I'd be all for mods changing it. Splatoon: You're a kid now is my vote.

Hahaha, the Seeker sub weapon is hilarious. Does anyone know if there's some way of getting new weapons other than from the weapon store? I've seen other players the same level that have weapons not available to me. Edit: Apparently they're unlocked from finding some of the scrolls in singleplayer.

Disargeria posted:Not really local multiplayer, just 1v1. Short answer: the devs think the touchscreen map is an essential part of the experience and by mandating it for online play they don't have to balance the game for people who aren't using the gamepad. Even the local 1v1 mode was designed to maintain parity between players (and I wish they hadn't because it might have led to more interesting modes with a higher player count).
