Eh I agree it should be addressed and fixed. However I don't think we have enough information AND we don't have a place to report bugs or suggestions to Nintendo. It MAY be a hardware limitation (which I seriously doubt) but it's possible. If it's going t be a competitive game then taking maps out of rotation for "Construction" is a plausible solution since they've done it before.
I've never had Frame-rate drops during multiple Bomb Rushes, but I see how devastating it could be in competitive matches. However, I still don't think we should ban Bomb Rush and all the weapons that use it! What about Splat Charger Mains? Or splash-o-matic? Or Rapid Blaster Deco? Or the Splatershot? They'll have to learn new weapons and get use to different specials.
My guess is that it is indeed a hardware limitation. I mean, I never really had any problems playing on Blackbelly framerate wise, if I was playing an ordinary match, but I can easily see people who can try to overload the game by an excessive amount of bombs going off at once. You can do this in other games too by having too many things going on to the point where the game can't handle it anymore, causing you to drop frames, but the thing is that you really need to be doing this intentionally to make it happen. And I highly doubt in a competitive match that you will have an excessive amount of bomb rushes going off at the same time, which is why I see no issue in Bomb Rush or Blackbelly to begin with.
Most definitely, but if it's something that can be fixed it should be fixed, not that it will be an issue until the unthinkable happens and that infinitely small chance occurs with all 8 players throwing bomb rushes at once.
That is true. If it can be better optimized, I am all for it. The only question is a matter of when it will be optimized, which takes time of course, or if it can be optimized at all.
Multiple bomb rushes happening at once is a rare occurrence yes and impacts the game harder, but in a more realistic and organized fashion is launching specials one after another. My squad originally came across a suction bomb team on Salt Spray running a similar strategy (they used them one after another while the other 3 threw suction bombs during the current bomb rush). It impacted the FPS and dropped it below 30 quite frequently. It's worse on Blackbelly.
Do you know what 30fps looks like? The game goes sub 30. Somewhere in the realm of 15-20fps.
I don't think you understand
More than half. Base game is 60fps. Inkopolis Plaza is locked to 30 (it was sub 30 when the game launched). When the game lags it's usually somewhere between 15-20. Only a few times I've seen it get lower.
When a game runs at 60 FPS and then you go to half the frame rate it was supposed to run at, it is a really big deal.
