Speaking of Octolings, are you able to switch to one eventually, if you did not initially choose them?

The Inklings really need to diversify their power generation options. Maybe build some more solar plants or somthing.

Wow, NOTHING is available until level 4, huh? Couple of weapons, sure. I only got to play for maybe 45 minutes today, did some single player, played 4 matches, and kept trying to access customization. Nothing.

It helped that my Splatoon 2 save data let me unlock my beloved N-ZAP '85 at level 1.

I hadn't realized how many of those they had added so I could actually gotten enough points... but they seem to be out of the bags :  Oh well, will save them for the next game with a cool reward I guess.

The replay function is superb. Had a really close match, extremely scrappy, felt like the other team was all in sync with one another and we were all just doing our best to give as good as we got. We all managed to get splatted one after another in the last 20 seconds of the match so no real cohesion for a last push. In fact, it felt like a major throw. We won by around 2% so not nearly as close as I've seen, but watching back the last couple seconds and seeing just how various player moves impacted the game felt so great. I thought I screwed up taking on a crab tank and dying for my hubris, but grabbing its attention let another of my teammates grab back a huge swathe of territory it had been working to take. Salmon Run is still great and I can't wait to clock in for my shift today. And I did the gachapon and snagged myself a new title, which definitely doesn't help my addictive personality one bit. I need MONEY and lots of it. In closing, game is good and fun and Splatoon.

Please share tips for being not-bad. I manage like 2-3 kills per round with about the same deaths even when trying to run with another person nearby and very much focusing on marking turf rather than going for splats.

Turf Wars strongly rewards hyper aggressive play, maybe try a less precision focused weapon like the brush or aerospray

I am also bad but the one interesting piece of advice I saw recently is when given the choice, ink over the other team's colour rather than spread your ink to unpainted ground. That way, you're directly raising your percentage, while lowering theirs at the same time. If you ink blank spots, all you're doing is raising your number.

Spend a sec inking your own turf if your team misses a lot at the start, and its always better to use your special than lose it. Gives you more time to generate another, and a lot refund charge if you are splatted mid use like the bazooka.

Favourite tiny detail so far: the giant screen in the lobby is an old model Switch, it has a USB-C port, speaker cutouts, a kickstand and Joy-Con rails.

Anyone else having horrible connection issues? I feel like for every 5 successful matches I'm getting 10 "connection error"s and two "a player dropped."

This bloblobber kit is absolutely oppressive for splat zones if you've got some shooter players enabling you. Love to lob blobs for massive long range territory control

Possibly dumb question here, but how hard is Splatoon to get into? Specifically for someone that hasn't played a multiplayer shooter closing in on a decade ago and especially not one on a console.

Not very, especially since killing the other team has much less of an impact than just spraying ink everywhere. If you like shooters at all then I'd recommend it. If you're not big into the competitive aspect then salmon run is an extremely good co-op experience.

Not hard at all, this isn't something demanding ultra twitch reflexes. Remember the primary audience for this game still have a bedtime.

Did Rainmaker have checkpoints before? I don't remember it having those before. I like the change but I'm going to miss dunking 20 seconds into a match if you have a good team.
