Splatoon

Any thoughts on how the customization system will work? Personally, not liking how weapons can only be equipped in sets of 3, but I assume they did that for balance reasons.
 
It's very very TF2, just without classes in general.
I'm hesitant to see how well it'll be balanced with that major factor just thrown out the window, but nothing I've seen seems too game break-y.
 
I prefer how the customization system works, honestly. You get a better idea of what an enemy's loadout is in that case.

Anyway, since this thread has been buried for a while now, we missed a lot of stuff in the meantime. Like the shopkeeper designs. Can we talk about the shopkeeper designs.

Also Splatoon might be at APEX this year and that has me hyped.
 
Crabmeat wasn't the kind of guy I'd expect to run the weapon shop. Looks more like a boy scout than an ink arms dealer. Kinda like how Anemone's got a clownfish in her hair, though. And that hoodie's color scheme makes me think of Spongebob for some reason.

Did you want to bring an entire army with you or what were you expecting?
 
No matter what else happens, Anemone is the best thing the game ever came up with

Can she be in Smash Bros. instead of the Inklings
 
This game is definitely plowing through every expectation that we've had for it since it was announced. I mean, I thought it was just a bare bones multiplayer territory shoot out game, but holy squid they blew that out with the lore and single player modes. Then they add in a cool little town to run around in, upgrade shit and do all sorts of customization things. I'm very impressed!

It was a must buy when it was announced and now it's basically sold already.
 
thank god that the forums aren't shitty anymore
but they're gonna get a lot more
squiddy
 
It's being ported to the Xbone obviously.
 
It's crossover we deserve... but not that the one that we need.
It's really complicated, but it's kind of cool when you think about it.
 
not even Master Chief can resist the squid
no one is safe

You know what? I'm pretty ok with the fact Nintendo's actually having a shooter it co-worked on in the Wii U. I mean, the last time Nintendo tried a shooter it was Yoshi's Safari. Hopefully this will be better.

Is this one Zombiu? Cause that one is all Ubisoft, not really Nintendo. There still is Geist though to pull out though.

Yeh,
I counted it Nintendo since it was made specifically for the WiiU platform.

Some of the coolest parts of Halo are squids.

And by that I mean the Engineers. They're like squids.

...Damnit, I forgot about those. But still, this is the first time nintendo ever tried an ONLINE shooter, so I'm happy about that.
 
UMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Oh wait, you mean multiplayer modes.

Not entirely sure, covering the territory in ink is such an integral part of the game mechanics that it's hard to imagine branching out too far from that.
Maybe like a race or an obstacle course section could work, I'm not sure.
 
it seems like there's gonna be at least two different multiplayer modes
with Turf War being one and probably just regular deathmatch
maybe/probably more

Ha, got you that time! And I would at least expect a regular deathmatch to be intergrated into the game. It's a shooter, it only makes sense. Plus, it would get boring to play the same mode on multiplayer over and over again.

...You hit me deep, man. You hit me deep.
 
Well it's like they say "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."
 
I'm just psyched cause the effects in the game look gorgeous! That and the art style are amazing. I was sold on those alone!

Coolness = Ranking, higher rank means better gear, so it's a bit like a cross of Kid Icarus and CoD where items have different boosts and higher rank better the gear. Not quite sure how I feel about that. But NeMoe confirmed to be awesome.

But none of that matters as much as this

Imma need to do some grinding as soon as I get this game

Moe is now confirmed to be the most important character in the game. Because you always need someone to remind you, "Yeah, well, you're still fuckin nerd!"

okay you
see the part where there's
two
eye-shaped holes
that's where your eyes go
and the strap
that's the long flat part
goes around your head
so that the
two
eye-shaped holes
can stay in place
