The only worthwhile, made for competitive play team based shooter of this generation was made by Nintendo and on a weak console. How did this happen?

Not even memeing. Please don't reply to shitposters; you either know this is true or don't know about Splatoon. I actually want to talk about how odd this is.

It's not as ideal as keyboard and mouse but the controls are pretty interesting, you have the stick for longer turns (on max sensitivity) and the gyro for smaller nudges.

You shouldn't be using console controls for a shooter in the first place. The KBM will always be better, and anything that isn't just as perfect shouldn't even be considered.

For the money they ask, I shouldn't have to make a single sacrifice to my standards.

Just another double standard.

I have Splatoon, buddy. And I know how bad of a game it is. Infact, I'm willing to prove it by timestamping my copy.

Of course, even if I timestamped my copy of Splatoon, I feel like everyone would just discard it anyway, or find a convenient excuse to continue discarding my arguments. So it feels like it would be a wasted effort.
>>
>>339846874
Anything that can be played with KB + M takes inherently more skill as the skill ceiling is higher.

Splatoon is a whole game based on a gimmick, a party game.
>>
It's a shooter where you don't even have to aim. In fact, it's literally designed for children who can't aim so they can just shoot everywhere without having to worry and of course it's a fucking shooter where head shots and precision aim do absolutely nothing and yet somehow Nintendrones defend that and try to say it's a competitive title.

Pure baby garbage that ruined the entire game. Even GunZ/S4 League had headshots.

Splatoon "cosmetics" don't matter, it's the stats behind them, which you unlock through playing the game more and leveling up.

You can buy any cosmetic you see another player using that isn't amiibo-only. It's not like you'll be using the in game cash on anything else.
>>
>>339847224

>Splatoon "cosmetics" don't matter,
Neither do TF2's cosmetics. They're purely cosmetic, and don't even have stats.

Because in Splatoon you can see someone with a cool cosmetic and buy it. In TF2, you get cosmetics through luck or lodsa emone. That's the difference. Splatoon doesn't have idling servers to get more clothes, since you get new clothes in the shops everyday, and you can buy the clothes you want from other players, basically paid piracy.
>>
>>339847379

>Everyone else loved Splatoon
Oh, so now we're using the popularity argument? Because that's one Splatoon can't win. Especially if you consider the metacritic score, or the sales of the WiiU compared to the Xbox or PS4. Or shoot, the sales between it and Overwatch.
>>
>>339845610
Got to use the camera centering button with wider turns. The gyro covers a pretty large cone.

Splatoon's controls are interesting, as the gyro is pretty much mouse aiming in cone. Usually controllers are auto-aim assisted slugs and MKB an 360 spinning eye of sauron. With Splatoon, you get controller's movement with restricted mouse aim in about 180 cone infront of you.

First, I want a guarantee. If I do timestamp it, then you'll admit that TF2 wil always be a superior game to Splatoon, and that gyro can never EVER compare to a KBM. I just want the shitposting to end, and if I pull out a timestamp to prove my authenticity in regards to owning and experiencing the game, I don't want people to double back and start making excuses.

>>339847518
Again you're lying. Splatoon's metacritic reviewer score is bad because it's a decently hard Nintendo game that lacked on multiplayer content when the game launched. Not only that, but it's one of the best selling games on the Wii U, selling even more than Bloodborne, which came out on a system that sold nearly 4x as much.
>>
>>339847747
Okay.
>>
>>339847623
That's literally true, though. You can pay to get what you want, or you can idle/wait for boxes. That's why TF2 died. It's one of the reasons I, and so many other people, quit TF2 years ago.

That's because the PS4 had a huge variety of good games and a widely diverse consumer base.

The Pii U has got Nintendo fans and toddlers that will buy absolutely anything with their logo on it and when your completely lacking any other shooters on the console (or online multiplayer games in general) of course it's going to sell to the desperate.

Actually, I don't mind whether you held up your end of the bargain or not. The point was that I proved myself as genuine by backing up what I said with proof. You've just proven yourself as a shitposter by directly lying to me and then relying on ad hominem instead of a strong argument. Calling me "retarded", in a very child-like response.

You're not helping the stereotype of Splatoon fans being all children. You could've shown a little more maturity. Just saying.

I agree and it's weird as fuck anon, doubly so because the art and presentation is so different from the best shooters of recent times. Also for a company to make such a fun, polished game in a genre they historically haven't really had a toe in is pretty neat. Surprises like this un-jade me on the industry as a whole a little bit.

Nintendo needs to unleash their younger talent if this is the kind of stuff they're capable of. I like some of miyamoto's older games just as much as anybody else but but nowadays he seems to shit up anything he touches. Teams like the one that made splatoon need to be given more prominence in the company. This shit is fresh and if they could get the ball rolling on more of it maybe nintendo could be relevant again.

But the PC's exclusives are still better than the WiiU's exclusives. KBM just allows for higher skill ceilings than any console controller.

Infact, I can't name a single game worth getting a WiiU for. Then agian, in fairness, I can't name a single game for any of the modern consoles.

As if PC gaming wasn't full of casuals as well, you have poor understanding on movement mechanics. You are not using just wasd keys, you are using the mouselook as well to control the movement, this provides superior precision and faster response time to anything else.

Splatoon's a fantastic use of the Gamepad. It's a good example of a game being well designed for the controller. How would you slow swim with WASD? Conversely, what point would a typically WASD game have using an analog stick? Kinda explains some of those crossplats being superior on PC when they have to design the controls for use with KBM and console, comparing the two usually puts KBM on top.

Splatoon's gyro controls I'd say are clearly superior to regular "console" shooters, though I'd say it's barely inferior to KBM due to lack of familiarity with the control style. Clutching it like a controller, yet being able to do those swift aim movements akin to using a mouse, yet having the ability to control your speed with an analog stick. It's wacky, but it works for the game. Best shooter of this gen though? Maybe, Japan certainly would think so even if they're mostly autistic casuals.

Says you. I can't even touch a fighting game unless it has KBM controls. Same with platformers, RPGs, RTS's, puzzle games, you name it.

It can have console controls for the more casual audience, but the KBM should be there too.

KBM is designed to be more sturdy since it sees use in every day life outside of video games, so it's perfect for intense button action. Meanwhile, my dualshocks for my PS4 are already broken, and my gyro control for WiiU is trashed and needs constant re-calibration.

Since you are intelligent, I want you to learn from this post. Most anyone who criticizes tf2's hats and other cosmetics either never played the game, or literally stopped playing before they understood the basics of the microeconomy it had. This means they're probably retarded, or at the very least they spent under twenty hours playing. If they tell you they only played "before that" they weren't playing too long.

A large part of being on this board is dealing with irrelevant or useless opinions. Everyone's critical of things that don't matter because they probably spent under twenty hours in the game.

Splatoon player here. At the end of the day gyro and stick do not compare to kb + m. No movement in Splatoon is as fast or fluid as the best shooters with kb+m. For the record I turned the Gyro off after awhile because I realized it just made me look stupid and it hardly made a difference.

Splatoonfags are more sad than bad. Splatoon was like the only game in the WiiU for awhile and it was 60 dollars for nearly no content. There were only two or three maps and they were on a timed rotation even. The game was marketed and made for kids and low skilled players, yet nintenfags ate it up because IT'S SO COLORFUL AND UNIQUE!!!! Thank god the Splatoonposting is much more rare nowadays.
