Squidboards Update #5 - Initial Launch of Groups

Hey everyone! We've got a bit of a late night update today in the form of groups.

This system will allow everyone to form groups for stuff like their dedicated Teams of 4, larger Squads or clans of friends, as well as discussion hubs for Regions or other topics.

As this is just the initial rollout, there may be a few quirks and such, so keep an eye out and let us know if anything seems off!

We hope this feature further strengthens the Squidboards community as we move towards the launch of Splatoon next weekend!

 

Ah, good! Good job on it by the way, I'm liking how it looks.

 

Finally, thanks @Warchamp7

 

very nice! now squad organization will be a lot more organized. thank you based @Warchamp7

 

Awesome! Can't wait to start taking use of this :D

 

Very excited for this! Can't wait to form a crew with other inklings :)

 

I know I won't use this since I live under a rock. Still cool though and I hope a lot of squad (or should I say squid) wars will happen in a much organised fashion. Plus, the updates in the future for Splatoon will really benefit this feature even more. It'll be while before the update, but it's better to start sooner than later with this feature.

Spoiler

A major game update event in August will add two additional matchmaking options, including the ability for friends to form four-person teams and search for other four-person teams to battle against. The second option lets eight friends join up to battle in four-on-four matches on any stage and with any rules they want.

 

These are some pretty awesome features. Hoping when things really kick off, we'll see the most use out of it.

 

This looks great, can't wait to see more features in the future XD :P :D

It's awesome to see this implemented, I know you said to expect some kinks but I thought best to highlight some;
-I tried to post a poll in the group forum, it doesn't seem to have included the poll in the thread, and has instead posted it as a normal thread. Not sure if this is a problem for groups overall but I tried to post it twice and it failed both times
-When trying to navigate backwards in a thread in the group forums section (i.e. clicking "Group" while in a thread) it takes you back to the front page

 

Very nice. I assumed a section for squads would be created, but this is even better.

 

Quick question @Warchamp7; do you think it's possible to extend the character limit for rules?

Done

Thanks so much!

 

Nice! Here's to a growing community and their squads! :)

 

Well done Guys!

 

Ohhhhh!! *sniff* Could this be mi little thread I started? Growing into this? By categories, *sniff* It's so beautiful. I don't have much words to describe it. My dream is almost done, practically a reality. A place to make groups and squads/clans/teams. Thank you very much!

 

Really liking the way groups were implemented. Well done.

 

I'm glad @Warchamp7 was able to put something together so fantastic as this. I hope everyone enjoys the new Groups feature, and please let us know if you have any feedback or problems with Groups back in the forums!
