It's a general handwavy thing that basically covers "the loving morons". It's a bit clearer with games that have clans or guilds where it covers everyone who's not in one (and therefore logically nowhere is near as good as a clan/guild-member who can likely actually coordinate with buddies).

God speed you magnificent bastard :patriot:. I learned the hard way that you don't just get bumped down a rank past 0, it drops you to 70 in the rank below just to twist the knife :suicide:. I have nothing but respect for anyone that can hold onto an A-rank.

Yup. I've been hovering around the 70 mark trying to claw my way back up a rank again.

I've made so many catchphrases since my ingame name is FATHER, but my favorite by far is "Tell your mother you're grounded." after I splat someone from above.

There's no one I'd rather be than me.

SO on a day where I just bought Xenoblade for the 3DS plus the nintendo Humble Bundle, is this game worth picking up?

It's the best competitive multiplayer game on the wii u by a lot, and also a really interesting experimental concept for a shooter. There are a lot of cool ideas on display - like, a lot - but it's a tad bit light on content for a $60 retail game.

That said, the core gameplay is so loving fun IMO you just can't pass it up if anything I just said interests you in the slightest.

Rollers are pretty good in ranked, especially the carbon fatty one. The range on it is loving insane

Nothing too fancy. I used to have a beanie but I switched.



Am I the only one bothered by lack of shorts/pants options? Having lots of different tops but no other pants is really bugging me. Gym shorts for everybody!

Yes but because nintendo its a huge loving hassle. And it doesn't really work in multiplayer because its really slow to do.

What you have to do is get ready so that you want your screenshot.

Press the home button on your WiiU Tablet.

Select "Miiverse" at the bottom (three green people)

Make a post on the Miiverse, even if it is just "picture", then press the "attach screenshot" button. You can choose the TV view or the gamepad's screen.

Then browse to https://miiverse.nintendo.net/

Log in and view your post, download your screenshot

Hooray :suicide:

Press the home button, hit the internet browser, go to an image uploading site (Imgur and TinyPic didn't work, so I used Postimg) and hit upload. You'll see whatever is on your TV and then what is on your Gamepad.

Those are the most 90s shoes imaginable, I love it. Need those.

Spike is supposed to be stealing me the hat with the little alien invaders sprite on it but he's taking his sweet time, its been at least 2 days and he just keeps saying "come back tomorrow"

The shorts thing is silly with the power armor you get from the squid amiibo. You still have shorts with it so it's really loving goofy.

I was in a few games with you, if that's the case.
