What do you think of the new stage /v/?
You do realize that the on disc content was all unlock back in june right?
>>316610934
I don't see the issue, don't buy the game until its all out if it bothers you that much
>>316611346
Museum d'Alfonsino (or whatever it's called) is pretty good as it's open and nice for e-liters
The other one, I have no idea how it's going to work. But the things going up and down are pretty cool
>>316611435
>I don't see the issue
>They fooled u like a autist
>>316611346
I like it, but it seems like there are a lot of walls you can't climb.
>>316611548
>I have no idea how it's going to work
IIRC new platforms appear after 1:30, opening new paths and reducing the deadly water traps.
>>316610934
That's okay, not the good way to do it, but it's okay.
The question is: Why though?
>>316611776
>Why though?
To keep players coming back week after week to experience the "new" content, thus having the game community stay alive longer (even though artificially)

I read this as that Papa Roach song
>>316611346
From the moment I finished the campaign I felt like the mp maps could use moving platforms, stage hazards and the other stuff you see there. We're finally getting some of those, and the Museum is just really really cool looking to boot.
>>316611172
Game must be pretty shitty if you constantly have to change it up to keep people interested.
>>316612327
why do you think f2p games are the most popular thing on market right now
>>316612327
>Game must be pretty shitty
That's why everyone shat on it when it came out due to lack of content.
Do you have bad memory?
>>316612327
Every online game does this nowadays.
Post squids.
>>316611172
holding back items and weapons is not the way to do it, the modes/maps/etc would have kept it relevant

>>316610934
Do you really think they were holding back these maps the whole time? They did so with the weapons, but you're an idiot. They already showed that they they've been focusing on balancing by modifying weapons and altering maps before so it shouldn't be surprising that they're still making content.
>>316611346
Easily will be one of the most replayable maps. Recon it a bunch though. It was a bitch learning how to climb to the goal in rainmaker.
All right /v/, let's do this.

Hate the large amount of walls you can't ink/climb though, hard to go after snipers in certain spots as you have to take a long way around to get to their spot if your weapons can't reach them normally.
>>316615027
Is there a website or something you can go to which tells you the current map rotation?

The Direct.
>>316611346
I want to like it but so far I've only played it during a rage-filled run in ranked so I can't really speak much for it.
From what I've seen it looked alright. I just hope I actually see it in rotation when I wanna play since I mean I've only played on hammerhead like once since it came out.

Bill said at least till January so it could go longer than that if the want
>>316611776
The optimist in me wants to say it's because they wanted to keep supporting the new IP with tons of new content and help keep it alive with constant updates.
The pessimist in me just says it's because this has been a dry as fuck year for Nintendo release-wise and this way they could make it seem less empty.

They said they had plans to continue support through at least January. That doesn't mean they're gonna drop it after January. At launch they said they had plans to continue support through August, and look where we are now.

>>316616103
The Direct said updates will go until /at least/ January.
Much like how when the game came out, updates were promised until /at least/ August.
It all depends on the popularity. If the game stays as popular as it is now, there's no reason not to continue supporting it.

I came here to post this
>>316612327
Oh come on. It shoudln't matter how a game keeps people interested.
TF2 has been releasing extra free content for years and that's what kept a lot of people playing for such a long time. If all the content that's in TF2 right now was released at launch, it wouldn't have become as popular as it has been. What's wrong with console shooters doing the same?
>>316618339
I'd say there's an argument to be made for the game costing full retail at launch when it was genuinely lacking content, compared to TF2, which at launch was either bundled with 4 other games (including the genuine GOTY) or could be bought individually for like $20, followed by entirely free updates.
That being said, it's viewed as a bad thing in general because people don't want to be paced.

Game actually was a bit of a ripoff at launch, they held back on too much.
Talking o updates, what does /v/ want in future updates? Barring Octolings since I'd argue everyone wants them.
I'd like some weapons that focus on other methods of painting/spreading ink like stamps, sponges, fingerpaintng, etc.
>Imagine an Inkling with pic related like gauntlets Hulk smashing like a bastard
>>316620372
Sponge/brush skates that spread ink as you move. If you jump while using them, you do a pirouette that spreads ink in a circle around you.
>>316620372
Stage interactables like in story mode.
The sponges and ink trails for example. Would make things reallyhectic, dunno why they didnt implement it
Is this a good game for someone who doesn't play online shooters?
>>316620570
I've wanted these for so long since that fake with the Scooter started circulating in August.
>>316620585
Imagine the invisible pathways from the single player.

I got burned out on the constant Splatfests and haven't played in months.
It'll suck trying to get back in to it now but oh well.
Did they ever increase the map rotation from 2?
>>316620794
I don't normally play many shooters but I really enjoy Splatoon. It's really easy to get to grips with the gyro controls and all the weapons lend themselves to it whilst still playing differently.

I haven't played all this time since launch but I keep returning. Each time I play I learn a little bit more about the maps, the weapons, and what to do with each to be really effective. I just really like splatoon, I guess.
>>316619443
you have to remember that the goal of splatoon was to sell to japan. Japan sucks at and hates shooters, so they couldn't overwhelm them with content. They had to go slow and teach japs to play.
