I understand where you are coming from. Functionally, Splatoon 2 absolutely "works," especially compared to other online Nintendo games. It does the job it wants to do, but the job that it wants to do is flawed and problematic for players. There are very limited options for playing with friends...

But having a higher tick rate would make the online play more accurate, and therefore more fun. Specs and fun are anything but mutually exclusive. Especially when unlike some other games like Mario Kart and Smash, the FOCUS of this game is online. We shouldn't have to lower our standards.

Pretty much everything BESIDES the gameplay itself. The tick rate. The lobbies. The timed modes. The rotations. The P2P. The difficulty setting up matches with friends. The game by itself is honestly perfect. I'm sure their are balance flaws the deeper you go in the meta, as with any...

A good universal balance would be to buff the tick rate so hits are more accurately registered in general.

Biggest thing here. This game is incredibly balanced and addictive and fun to watch. The potential is being wasted on ****ty choices from Nintendo. That's what triggers me the most when fanboys on Reddit justify this with "lol go play counterstrike, Spla2n is still casual fun"

It shouldn't ****ing exist They can just offer an incognito mode or something without rewards What kind of ****ing game doesn't let you play one of its only new features at any time? Can you imagine if Mario Kart battle mode schedules existed? Or if Arms rotated between skillshot, hoops...

They can add all the weapons they want, all the maps they want. If they don't make Salmon Run playable at all times eventually, do away with ranked mode rotations, fix the lobbies, the tick rate, or provide a reasonable alternative to map rotations, then it doesn't really to matter to me.

Is there at LEAST a chance they could buff the tick rate for ranked? Realistically if someone is tethering on handheld mode they'll probably just go into casual turf war mode. Ranked absolutely needs the better connection for consistency's sake. And chances are if you go on ranked your...

Nintendo is wild because they'll release a summer's worth of online multiplayer games, make people start paying for online, and literally advertise their games in a competitive setting, but dudes will still be like "guys nintendo's strengths have never been online, also think about the casuals"...

100% unacceptable and needs more attention. This game is fun as hell and deserves better than some of the choices Nintendo is making with it.
