GameXplain confirms that you can only use the Pro Controller for the second player in Battle Dojo.

Guess I'm getting an extended battery now.:v:

Oh well, at least that single game I got to play was fun.

The Splattershot Jr. build is way more threatening then the rollers.

This game is ridiculously intense when it's two teams that know what they're doing. My last game was almost equal.

I want to see pro level Splatoon become a thing.

What we really should be complaining about is the lack of offscreen play. I've gotten so used to switching back and forth with other games.:(

People really need to start splating walls. I always keep pulling wins because people aren't covering up my wall splats.

Does the echolocator show enemy locations for everyone on the team or just who activated it?

I've been going through the inkling boy's missions and I really don't even want to think about doing the last boss with the roller.

He's pretty drat hard with the roller. I keep failing at the last hit. He was surprisingly manageable with the charger.

Is there a way to play ranked matches with friends?

I have been fighting this goddamn DJ for the last two and a half hours with a roller and I don't even know what the gently caress is wrong with me. I've got some kind of mental block that makes my hands go to poo poo as soon as I get to the final exchange and it's absolutely maddening.

I just want to go back to multiplayer, drat it. :(

Save the bubbler shield you can find and wait until the last volley to use it.

Tower Control is amazing. It's cool that ranked will probably trade off between it and Splat Zones so we don't get player fragmentation.

I found motion controls to be awkward at first but tried playing through the last half of the campaign with them for practice and I can never go back. I also found lowering the sensitivity of the right stick helps too.

Cat Champion, haven't lost a match yet. Gonna sleep now though, tempted to make a alt because I feel bad for dogs right now.

Cat Champion here too after an hour. The only 2 games I lost all three of my teammates disconnected. I still went 40% on one.:smug:

I really hope they do this every month. These were some of the best matches I've had in this game and it's nice to have region filtering.

The matchmaking seems to be prioritizing your cat/dog level before anything else right now.

I see more cat champions and kings/queens but I'm still sure dogs have this due to way more of them. I've had 6 games with me as the only cat against 4 dogs. Has anyone even seen that happen on the dog side?

Just went +20 and became Cat King which is the best title I've received in a game.

How are are the Splatfest results calculated? Team Dog definitely has more members but Team Cat seems to have better players on average.

Biggest thing I got out of splatfest was seeing how strong the game is in organized teams, and how much the game has to offer in general - far more nuance than I thought.

They iron out matchmaking and other issues and this is basically a game that's going to be around strong for years.

Yeah, it's nuts how well Nintendo nailed this genre, especially for a first attempt.

When will we know the results for Splatfest?

Dang it indeed. It's really dumb that just picking a side counts toward the score.

Do we keep the titles in any way? Cat King is too loving good to only have for a day.

Hey guys,

Did any of you had trouble getting the Splatfest award? I admit I didn't login for a couple of weeks after the Splatfest event, but I cannot believe I didn't have any Super Sea Snails.

Did I have to connect the next day of Splatfest to receive them?

Seems so. I missed out on mine too.:(

Splatfest started and first miiverse post I see is someone trying to copy that Marie and Callie going down a water slide picture while all the others are just stick figures on both sides.

The Miiverse drawings are so boring this time.:(

I keep fighting against roller coasters that only have 2-3 teammates. Maybe more people chose slide then I thought.

No this would be terrible, it'd ruin ranked non-squad battles. an organized squad using voice chat and teamwork would destroy a rag-tag group of randos.
