I've fallen off the Tower into the water a bunch just from teammates unknowingly knocking me off. It's embarrassing when it happens.

Thank you all for chiming in. Also, @Zippy, I fully agree. I know the gamepad is what makes the Wii U hardware unique, but it's actually more difficult to take your eyes away from the screen than it is to simply glance at something in the corner.

Guess that could work, Mr. Gency. Seems a bit proprietary, but why not. Unfortunately, it looks like very few people in this community share my frustration with the lack of controller options. That's unfortunate.

Resident Evil 5 set up a great set of in-game voice commands that eventually became a universal language for Versus and Mercs players. It was doable by simply pressing the B-button and a direction on the D-pad at the same time: "C'mon!" -- Come to my position. "Wait." -- Don't go, or stay where...

Fighting someone next to a corner, then pulling back and hiding in the ink directly next to the wall, waiting for them to pass, and splatting them from behind. I am shocked by how often that works. You'd think they'd ink the floor directly next to the wall, but nope! Run right past it.

Thanks KT, I found 'em. And hey IsmaR. I remember you from Smash. Glad to see you've hopped aboard the Splatoon train!

I'm one of the very few out there who thinks the current map rotation setup is a brilliant idea. I'd like to think it'll stay forever (with an inevitable bump-up to three as more maps are introduced). Most of my online multiplayer games get dull due to map selection, and funnily enough...

One time, in Turf Wars, I splatted a guy at the final second with a long range, blindly thrown grenade, and our team won 44.1% to 44.0%. I consider myself the hero of that story.

I really haven't had any recurring problems. But my game will occasionally (i.e. like once every few days) boot me out and say I've lost my internet connection, even though my laptop/Xbox will say otherwise. I then reconnect, and everything's fine. It's a tad annoying-- one time it booted me...

There have been a few threads before relating to this subject, but the most recent one I could find in a quick search was from over a month ago and had a total of five posts. So, I'd like to formally create a thread for anyone craving a patch that will allow them to use their controller of...

The change in the general playstyle is a direct result of a few things that aren't really in Nintendo's control: 1) People have played the game for awhile and have become more accustomed to it. Naturally, splatting enemies becomes easier the more you learn about the map layouts, weapon types...

I'm a stick user, and I can tell there's a difference in my accuracy compared to some others I find online. As a result, I basically rely on guns that aren't very long range, and use my grenades for anything out of easy shooting range. You basically just always have to be on your toes, because...

And here I am. Team Dogs/Waterslides/Marshmallows, at your service. Oh, also, looking for some friends or a clan to join now that we can actually join others for ranked battles. Go ahead and advertise to me if you'd like.
