Perhaps it's because I was well and gone when it came out, but something I've noticed go largely unacknowledged since my return to Splatoon is the "Change gear and continue feature. This is something of a game changer for me because one of my largest complaints about Splatoon is, or was, the lack of ability to change gear between matches without just entirely dropping from queue. It makes a *Massive* difference in playing with friends especially. I still dislike the means of getting into turf with friends, but it's far less painful not needed to restart that whole process every time just because you wanted to change your boots or something.
In general this makes having smaller groups of friends (Not enough for a PB) more viable for just turfing around imo, and way easier to get into as a result. Similarly, I get more enjoyment from extended turf sessions not having to constantly back out to change my setup because I want to switch things up.
So what has this addition done for you if anything? What do you think Nintendos next step in user interface improvements might be? What would you like to see?
That last question for me is easily the addition of both an unranked objectives playlist, and the ability to actually start up a lobby with my friends rather than having to try and join on them as we do now. The former portion I don't expect because I find it unlikely Nintendo will want to potentially decimate ladder populations by splitting the queues anymore. The second I find unlikely because Nintendo seems fairly comitted to their companion app (unfortunately imo), but maybe we will get lucky?
Anyway, just something I was thinking about.
