Yeah I'm not sure what is wrong with me (and you) but the first thing I thought was public voiding, as well.

:stonk: I just found out you can get a long range flick with the splat roller by jumping before you flick.

I jump a lot and whenever I get dualies in Salmon Run I end up rolling to my doom at least once because I tried to jump.




I like dualies, but I don't use them in ranked so the muscle memory in tight spots works against me.

I want to be lean and mean.
I remember reading about how Miyamoto threatened to put Mario in the game if the developers didn't come up with a character/personality who could represent the game, so their solution was to add fictional idols who could read the news and host events. I have no idea if it's true or not, but it's weird to think about Splatoon becoming just another Mario game. Splatoon's development sounds very interesting and makes the game sound like a happy little accident, so I hope the GDC talk is made public eventually.

After getting back into this a bunch the last week (and hopefully breaking the S- barrier any game now) I gotta say, Splatoon is truly, truly special. Glad it took off as well as it did (esp in Japan) because I never want Nintendo to stop loving with this franchise. Give me Splatoon Picross, give me a 100-player Splattle Royale spin-off, give me everything. I'm glad they're expanding the single player with the new expansion too because there's potential to do a lot of cool stuff there.

edit: one thing that I hope to see in the next installment (or, really optimistically, in an update) is the ability to keep up with friends better. Even if they want to keep detailed battle stats private (although an option to show them on your profile would be cool) I should be able to go through my friends list and see their outfits and what weapons they've been using and stuff, even if that just means them being more likely to populate the plaza or something. For a game with such a focus on swag and showing off it's hard to actually do so

I'm really looking forward to the Callie stat dispenser in 3.0, clearly they've been collecting a shitload of data and only surfacing it in discrete or time limited chunks on the app. I really wanna see like, a lifetime winrate and time % in squid form, kid form, super jump time etc

Oh I forgot that was even part of 3.0! Sick. Yeah the app has a lot of good info you can't get in-game (like per-stage per-mode winrates) but more is even better

When’s the Octoling DLC supposed to drop? After the 3.0 update or with it?

3.0 is April and I believe Octoling is July. Don't know if we have further dates than that

Because gently caress You, that's why.

No actually they just don't want the playerbase to be all doing one thing I guess.

Salmon run is active at least one daily so you do your daily bonus. They could probably switch to the daily bonus being an actual daily bonus I suppose

Data miners found at some point the save file sizes for Splatoon got much bigger (83% bigger) than at like launch or so. So yeah, they probably started collecting this info (and a lot of it from the sounds of it) fairly early on.

Octo Expansion is not a part of 3.0.0. All we were told was "summer", though the eShop says 7/31. Though that could just be a placeholder date.
