That's not a Point Sensor. That's clearly an Inkstrike from an Octostriker, as evidenced by the glow in the middle and the fact that it's taken on the UFO boss arena.Well, I can tell you this much: You know those black arrows indicating you've been marked with radar, like via Echolocator, Haunt, or Point Sensors? And how they're shaped like squids?
An Octobomber threw a Point Sensor at me for some odd reason, and it marked me with an octopus-shaped marker.
If they did that much to distinguish Inklings and Octarians apart, there must be something planned, or at least something scrapped.
Yeah, there's a squid-shaped marker circling the target.
Played through the story since day one, and i think they were always there. could still be recycled for echo animation, though.
With any luck that means these fixes might come as part of a bigger patch. All signs point towards Octolings eventually making it as playable characters; it's mainly a matter of "when" at this point.
Well, ever since Iwata passed away, things have been getting slow with Nintendo lately. I'm hoping it won't be this way for long. I'm still waiting for the next Direct.
At least they did say that Directs won't be ending. "Nintendo Directs won't be going away but we have nothing to announce at this time" or something they said about it. It's pretty easy to find with a google search. And I'm starting to expect a direct in the next couple of weeks if this silent treatment is going to keep up.
Since they're reblogging art related to Splatoon, it could be difficult for them to find them among all the "Inktober" stuff.
Not only that, but the splatoon miiverse service they just translated has been down for a while, and no word on nin's sites. Something is up.
Besides being a cool change to your squid/kids' appearance, I really don't see the reason for the addition of the octoling. Don't get me wrong, I welcome any change that could expand the game but from the developers perspective, how will this affect gameplay? Every update/ free DLC that they've released has influence in one way or another that isn't just a mere aesthetic swap which seems to be the case here.
I would love for them to turn october into OCTOber. But idk, I feel like nintendo's just pulling on our heart strings right now with japan's splatfest theme and everything else they're doing.
