The exact opposite direction from what I tried, you can't jump 90 degrees, only 180

Like Mario, truly

The detection is a 90 degree change in direction. So you can do goofy forward rolls by going at a 45 for a second then swinging to the opposite 45.

People being weird about me saying 'man my friend group really got upset being forced into those matches' huh

I didn't get to play any as I needed to step away from the net mostly so I'm just commenting on what I saw the most of :/

Relax it's just funny how melodramatic you sounded about the paint shooting game.

Look on the bright side.



Also you don’t have to play that mode.

I’m sure Nintendo will use data from this to adjust things but I still think it’s fair for the defending side. I think the issue some had is forgetting that it’s still a turf war battle and staying put in the middle. They need to be more proactive between defending the signal with inking the opposing teams’ areas.

really weird seeing ppl complain about being put into specific matches. As paper, I was able to queue into any kind of match I wanted and got in pretty quickly. Really had fun with the tricolor matches, gonna be a shame that theyre splatfest only

Has Nintendo said when Spaltfests are planned going forward? Im assuming theyll have one with each new catalog, so once every ~2 months, right? Also hope they have a big launch Splatfest as well

Splatfests are usually a once a month sorta deal for the past 2 games. I doubt that changes here.

Yosuke will now die for you.
From watching a pro player yesterday I learned you can roll cancel both the squid roll and the squid jump.
The squid jump roll cancel is especially crazy because you can roll onto the platform or away from it leaping into a position on the ground below.

I said come in!

Had fun with the splatfest last night, as little as I got to play. While the game is still mostly the same as Splatoon 2, there are lots of little changes here there that make the experience much better. I especially like how matchmaking works now.

I really like all the new stuff from the demo, and am stoked as hell for the full game.

It’s a small complaint but I really hope they don’t keep that same gender/species/eye/skin selection process. I liked changing my stuff up over and over throughout the day but it took foreeeeever.

Jfc, the main thing that demo did was solidify my desire for S3. I need it. I want to upgrade my weapons, buy a poo poo ton of gear, completely customize my locker and look at everyone else's, and play the card game.

Oh, and actually play Splatoon, as well.

I had a ton of fun playing, but I wanna do the other stuff even more.

The solo player mode from the Treehouse seems to follow the Octo Expansion model of stages you pay to play and then can try with different weapons.

Which is fine.

Well, I do love Splattershot Jr and conversely can probably play a mean Aerospray, their loadout seems fine.

N'Zap 85 seems alright, and I was never too bad with those... and all because I my beloved Tri-slosher is stuck with an Inkjet which I simply do not manage well, Slosher gets the bazooka, and don't they get that I play those weapons specifically because I'm not precision based!

The Blobobbler has a great kit, but I don't like that bucket. I need to see a bucket with a better kit.

At least the undercoverbrella looks neat. I was never great at it, but I like what it's packing.

I hope they come up with more things to do in the lobby between games. Or just some small QoL improvements. Like let me instantly charge up my special to practice using it.

Aye, and a big maybe on if we get more in the way of alternates.

Splat2 had 48 weapons at release including the alternates and hero replicas.

Splat3 is starting with 54 without any alternates or single player weapons. (That we know of right now.)


Also an aside: drat, the goo tuber is winning big with a kit that sets it apart from the squiffer.

It's Splatoon 2 the day after the Splatoon 3 demo.

They're calling people cheaters for coming back to Splatoon 2 after 'cheating on them' with Splatoon 3.

The latest weapon I want is the Splash at level 16, so I'm gonna get that with a golden ticket. The others I want are pretty low level, so I think I'm just gonna save the other two for the next round of weapons.

We don’t know yet, it’s based on the S2 save transfer which I don’t believe has been data mined (might not even be possible). And of course everything that was data mined in the demo is subject to change in the real game release

In the meantime, imma keep building XP in S2 over the remaining two weeks cuz why not
