    I can't use motion controls to save my life...

    Just going to put this out there, the right stick still controls left/right motion! So for most of your motion (which will be turning left and right) you can use the right thumbstick. If you are moving for everything it will be extremely uncomfortable. The only time you should move your...

    The new specials are not overpowered.

    Oh, cool. I was unaware of that as I only had seen the direct which was unclear. So it's not invincible, but it probably absorbs a bit of damage. I wonder if its hp is 100 or 200 or what so we could know exactly how much it can take. Still can panic button run away but the fact that it's not...

    The new specials are not overpowered.

    In the direct when the baller was shown there were no shots fired at the user so it's currently unclear if the user is vulnerable or temporarily invincible. So I don't think it's correct to state "but let's you get harmed". I have a feeling that it is an invincibility special due to the way it...

    Will/should old sub weapons and special weapons come back?

    amiibo unlockable content will always be purely cosmetic. No combination of weapon sub/special will ever be only unlockable via amiibo. Unfortunately all three hero variant weapon skins in Splatoon(1) were of the lesser used variants for the weapons chosen so hero weapons were rarely seen in...

    Possible "Favorite" Color Setting for 2?

    Splatoon already does this with color lock. Any players with the setting on will see orange/blue instead of what others see. It doesn't really make any sense why everyone sees the same colors anyway as it has no affect on gameplay. It would only ever affect spectators at an event if they were...

    Possible "Favorite" Color Setting for 2?

    Personally I would love a greater color selection ability. I have colorblindness so a few of the color combinations really mess with me but there are plenty that I'm perfectly fine with. In Splatoon the option is either have variety but risk the two color options that mess with me or have no...

    All New Specials

    I can see your arguement in its effect, but the utility is much closer to how Kraken was used in the original Splatoon. It can be used as a panic button when fighting 1v1 to quickly win the fight like a Kraken would. Kraken could also super jump in while transformed to take out opponents...

    All New Specials

    If all we get is what's revealed that means six different specials as opposed to seven. The evolutionary equivalents Ink jet is inkzooka Splashdown is Kraken Sting ray is killer wail Tenta missiles is ink strike weaponized Ink storm (unofficial name) is ink strike for coverage Bomb sling...

    All New Specials

    Keep in mind that similar does not mean equal. It has very long range so it is possible to challenge most weapons outside of their range while flying around with careful spacing. Obviously skilled Chargers will be able to pick an ink jet off but it also has range to challenge Chargers. And if...

    Accuracy Comparison of Motion Controls between Joy Con and Pro Controllers

    I have a feeling that when joycons are paired as one they will only use one of the gyros instead of both. Probably an easy test if you just play a game with them both detached to see which gyro it will use. If it only uses one then it's equal to the pro controller.

    All New Specials

    Perhaps you misunderstood what I meant. Ink jet is simply the balanced evolution of the inkzooka. Similar team wiping potential while also being considerably more vulnerable to being picked off by Chargers or by players that take advantage of the forced return super jump at the end. It also...

    Your Opinion on Paid Online

    Their target demographic for Splatoon 2 has changed to high-school/college kids/young adults with their eSports marketing of the game. While it has a cartoonish art style that certainly doesn't make it a game targeted to young kids and I highly doubt they make up a majority of playerbase as you...

    All New Specials

    Splashdown can potentially be used as an insta-win panic button for 1v1s (probably even more guaranteed at getting a splat than kraken), but it no longer has the ability to cascade unless you catch enemies in a group (Kraken had the potential to keep swimming after a splat and potentially catch...

    Your Opinion on Paid Online

    With the price point an unknown currently it's hard to say if it's worth it, but I personally will pay in regardless because I need Splatoon in my veins.

    Splatoon 2: Find Out What's Fresh! (General Discussion)

    I'm sorry you feel this way but there's good reason for them doing it this way. In rank they created bubbles of three so you could have a sense of progression while also maintaining a player base in each rank. This cuts down on wait times so even if there aren't enough players of exactly your...
