Is not in Mario Kart 8.
I'm confused as to what constitutes live spectating then, 'cause every time I'm on MK8, waiting to get into a lobby, I spectate other people's races... live.
They're listening to both sides though? I don't know where you got the idea that "casuals" are the only people that want a level cap increase. I don't think any new content should be unlocked after level 20 or so, but a higher level cap would be nice. And you assume that everyone hates grinding/farming.
it's a pointless grind though. levels serve no purpose in splatoon. so there's no incentive or reason to actually have to grind to 50.
And you think spectating random lobbies of random players only until there is space for you to race counts as a live spectating mode? There is no spectating in friend rooms which is what the competitive community uses for matches, before throwing your sarcasm everywhere please know what you are talking about.
? Reading this conversation and I'm confused. So, what would you call that little bit of watching random players races while waiting for a slot to join if not live spectator? Though I understand your talking about watching a friends match as well which isn't in MK8, but that doesn't mean that there isn't live spectating. Just not the exact feature that you want.
The game will die out a lot easier without new blood to pump into it. I'd rather Splatoon be more of a success that keeps getting built on, thanks.
You WANT people to be turned away from Splatoon? Why? And please don't say because you don't want to be teamed up with newbies in turf war.
You can't utilize spyke's expensive service until lvl 20. And higher levels mean more weapons/gear. Who knows, we may get 4 star gear (I doubt they'd make gear with more slots than we can already get, but I can see 4-5 star gear having even higher chances of getting certain subs. Like firefin on 3 star being 5x likely for sub weapon saver, and 4 star of it being 7-10x likely, etcetc.)
My point was it isn't a mode because you can't choose to do it, and it only exists in random WWs. Therefore it is useless for anything competitive or casual. Saying that being able to randomly spectate random worldwide races until you get in the race, and that that counts as a spectating mode is just a ******** response to the real concern people have for a real spectator mode that actual solves some problems and improves competitive/casual QOL.
>Assuming I wanted this game to die out, I never said anything of the sort. What I meant was that i'd much prefer bad people going away and the ones that are good will still be playing. This mostly pertains to ranked mode. The last thing I want is people constantly being dumb in doing anything other than the objectives.
Ranked mode*
Spyke is not incentive enough to keep tacking on levels to the game. He's a glorified RNG NPC. He'd be totally worth the grind if the odds of getting what you ordered/rolled were absolute but that will never be something I concern myself with as I understand his purpose. Furthermore, has anyone put any thought into whether Nintendo will not allow us to access him again till we hit 50? Not that I know anything about what Nintendo's plans for Spyke while we grind, but we couldn't access him till we were 20. I won't really care as i will just take that 30 to collect some serious coin.
Calm your ****, I legitimately couldn't tell that's what you were asking for, and yeah, what's in Mario Kart 8 counts as live spectating despite your precious picky princess standards.
Your signature points out that you are an A+ in ranked battles. You're always going to be teamed up with other A-rank players, and not newbies. That's why I said turf war.
