Splatoon 2: Find Out What's Fresh! (General Discussion)

[Laseraxis7]

...I'll keep a 2nd panic button ready in case it gets announced like @Saber 's idea.

Who am I kidding. It doesn't matter. Nintendo will pull the rug out from under our feet and just announce something unexpected. Be it a new weapon or map. Should I expect it, or not? Am I overthinking it?

I'm likely overthinking it.

It could work as a sub weapon, but I frist thought of it as a main weapon, but its mechanic is a bit complex.

 

[ZEROrevive]

Just a quick one- Sheldon has a shut up button now. I'm laughing.

 

[Dessgeega]

I GOT MY WISH A BETTER FIRING RANGE YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS

Also spider crab > shrimp.

 

[Laseraxis7]

I was thinking of some sort of "Splat turret", but it's pretty farfetched, isn't it?

 

[Laseraxis7]

When does the Direct begins? It hasn't started for me.

Your stream is probably being difficult, it's over halfway through. :/ Try refreshing the page, and if it doesn't work then try a different stream.

 

[Dessgeega]

There's a lot to comment on, but the most relevant to me is that it's official, damage up and defense up are gone, and good riddance ;) they aren't on the group shot of abilities, as shown.

 

[Joasa]

...Baller ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Luna Blaster has splat bomb and baller everyone ruuun

 

[Torloth]

[Coricus]

WHAT

WHAT

IT'S A YIN-YANG INKLING-OCTOLING NEWSCASTER DUO

. . .OK, I didn't really pick favorites that much between Callie and Marie even if I leaned Callie very slightly, but that Octoling is my DEFINITE favorite. Holy freshness! The Inkling twerp honestly kinda creeps me out a little design wise shhhh

Alright, I'll do that.

We need plushies of these two....for splat2 merchandise.

Don't deny it. You want one.

 

[Dog King]

God, that was a great direct! Also, I'm already in love with Marina's design!

 

[ZEROrevive]

[Ansible]

Well... poke a utensil in me, I'm done.

There ain't a matching meme, gif, or what-have-you to express my excitement!

Interesting idea to have a Splatfest themed testfire. Even funnier considering, well, disconnects because it's a testfire and splatfest. xD And it also looks like we're going to need that Dead Sea Salt v2 thread sooner than expected!

 

[ZEROrevive]

Oh, and incase you missed it, @SquidKid85 . Here's the entire stream recorded.

We need to gather all the info here into one nice list. Anyone?

EDIT: @Saber delivers!
