Painting The Walls

[SockHead]

I feel like I'm the only one who goes out of my way to slap a coat on any empty wall I see. I believe my W/L is definitely over 50% so I feel I'm doing something right..

Pretty much, walls don't count.

You can open up some possibilities with walls but not every wall is worth your time.

It's a nice way to get around and trick your opponents, but that's about it. Walls don't contribute to the score at the end of the game.

 

[SockHead]

they dont??? that's news to me.. are you sure about this?

Yup, I'm 100% sure about this. Again, they can give you an advantage in terms of mobility and shortcuts, but they offer zero to the score at the end of each game.

 

[Alus]

Any 90 degree wall will for sure not count.

There are curved surfaces that are worth very little (like in the skatepark), but near the top the score is reduced to nothing.

 

[CoopLan]

The walls are only important for movement options. As others have said, the only map that really gives you some leeway on curved surfaces is skate park and mall (but less so on mall)

 

[Rhode]

Walls are important on almost every course, because it allows you to climb them in squid form. However, only ground you can walk on is considered towards the score for Turf Wars.

If it ain't on the map, it ain't worth crap.

(to your score)

 

[SockHead]

True that.. I coulda sworn I saw my points go up while shooting at walls. Ah well, this is valuable info haha thanks

Even if they don't count, I always make sure to paint the walls in certain spots to make the opponent's life harder.

Walls dont count towards the score, but if the enemy team puts ink on it and you cover their ink in your own, you get points

Now THATS news.

Thanks.

I usually only paint walls if I need to climb them. I didn't know that covering enemy ink on walls gave you points though.

 

[Jiggly]

Whenever I'm in the big box in saltspray rig, or am in the center of walleye warehouse, I always shoot the walls before inking in case if I am approached. Being able to jump and run away, and be higher than the opponent is always a great advantage, and wins me many games.

Walls do not count for the game, so unless you can climb up it to get to a higher point that does absolutely nothing. Sorry!

They count up to the bar at the top of them. Just remember that the score is tallied by the overhead view. If something is straight down, that is nothing, but curved walls and ramps are always worth something.

 

[Ace.]

anything which is seen from a birds eye view counts

 

[wingedarcher7]

Now THATS news.

Thanks.

Any ink belonging to the enemy that you cover with your own will give you points, so it makes sense. So it's nice to make yourself look better, but it won't get your team to win.

Walls may not count towards your score but it does fill your special meter up slowly
