I can only carry so hard Taylor, how about you fire your fukin weapon next time This has been the case just about every game tonight. Edit: lol of course we lost turf war to three Aerosprays! Just noticed that. Fauxtool posted:is there a tool people are using to upload that too perfect art or are they really zooming way in and drawing a pixel at a time? Yea, someone wrote a script that utilizes the Pokken gamepad to read an image file and input the right sequence of inputs to recreate it in-game. enojy fucked around with this message at 04:46 on Jul 28, 2017 |

Any goons hit S rank and can speak to the competitiveness? Hitting A the idiots who play like turf war have almost died out - the few who have survived make up for their complete and utter lack of situational awareness with the ability to get lots of kills.

I've seen almost no Japanese players and the chargers are much much worse off in 2 than they were in 1, all this with a fresh matchmaking pool lead me to wonder if S is super competitive or if there are people who have managed to fail upwards that hard.

I think ranked isn't going to be as ridiculously hard now that they have League mode to split out the single/squad queue. But I'm not S rank and I imagine d those who are are deadly

SeANMcBAY posted:A lot of the old battle themes are actually in the game's code already, including the one you just linked. You can unlock them only to play in the music mini game from amiibo. I hope they patch them in to play during battle as well. Yeah I'm really hoping they're planning on bringing back the old music to battles, maybe slowly through the regular updates.

Seems like region lock is enforced for matchmaking, so it doesn't seem like you'll be running into any Japanese players unless they live in the US. Also, you can squid while holding the Rainmaker. Please, squid to the goal. I even painted a path for you.

Internet Kraken posted:Nah its good because now I don't have to actively avoid Rainkmaker because people in that mode are amazingly stupid. What sense does that make? Wouldn't ranking up together help that more, not less??? The only way this helps is if you're great at one mode and bad at the other or something weird like that. And even then! You work your way up to like B/A in one mode by clawing your way through the ranks of mouthbreathers who don't know how to focus on objectives, and then the game switches modes and you're right back with the shitheads.

Also if you don't belong with said mouthbreathers, you'll be able to climb out of there eventually. And there are algorithms in place to skip you over a few ranks if it's obvious that you really don't belong there. The modes are different enough that I think that establishing separate ranks was a good move.

Zaphod42 posted:What sense does that make? Wouldn't ranking up together help that more, not less??? All the modes being together meant I usually avoided Rainmaker because its a lot easier for one idiot in that mode to gently caress up everything by repeatedly grabbing the rainmaker and doing stupid poo poo with it. Ranking up didn't help with that. I stopped playing Rainmaker because I wanted my rank in zones and tower control to actually be maintained and not get hosed up because I went on a losing streak in rainmaker. That's not an issue now obviously.

Not necessarily 0, you can have a little left over after your bar breaks.

Thought the whole jump rank thing was a myth cause I got in early when everyone was like me in ranked the day after launch. Finally did some tower control rounds and went from c- to b- in one jump Haha.

In one of my last C- ranked games tonight, I got 27 kills, we ended up winning by time. One push in particular had me killing one guy, using ink warrior, spammed the *follow me* command, killed two more guys, inked a nice clean path; turn around, and see the rainmaker under the bridge with one other guy, who both got killed by a single person.

Any goons have those yellow mesh looking shoes with the pink soles? I need these in my life and I haven't seen anyone wearing them to sic Murch on 'em. In which case I'd just need to play a game with you and then sic Murch on you. I think.

In a match of rainmaker earlier today I had a friendly grab it and I figured I'd paint a path for them. I started up the side of the reef and gunned down a guy but the three enemy team members came down on me like a hammer In the kill cam I could see the rainmaker guy just casually walk on up and score a touchdown so I guess I was helpful

SeANMcBAY posted:Do point sensors reveal location data to teammates or just the one who threw it? They show tagged squids to all of your team. One thing I like about the new point sensors is that their AOR lingers a little while, making them an excellent tool in controlling the enemy. They can choose to walk through it, but then everyone will know you're there.
