Twenty-three days until Testfire

I've never noticed the sign that flashes by in the middle of that webm before. It's kinda freaky.

it's also inaccurate. tentacles don't combine. they just move to their head.

marie is nothing without callie

gay spaghetti

there is nothing in that image that suggests homosexuality

All spaghetti are gay by default

Did this artist do any others besides the jetpack and dualies ones? They never fail to crack me up.

...

those are the only 3 I saw

Yeah, it looks like that's it for that series. They've done a few other Splatoon comics though.

here's the information i've got on wet floor:
>the entire band is a fusion band covering various genres with youth at heart, and is quickly rising in popularity. they were all gathered through recruitment on social media.
>synthesist is waiting to make a comeback on a music scene that is favoring idols, preferring to write music instead of performing it and has a much easier time in the studio than live
>the left guitarist with a preferance for the classics has a sharp taste for rebellion, and the right girl shreds powerful riffs as a devotee to punk rock
>lively and yet technical, the two rhythm players in front wont lose the title of the best
>the bassist's forte is actually in slapping, while the drummer is able to maintain the stability of a boulder even when she attracts trouble
>both of them are trying to build their character through hard work and seek to create thrilling moods.

Ah, the classic punk rock slap bass synth genre.

Friends with Octolings!

Do you even play the game? What rank are you?

z- because they're stuck underground with the octoshit

i float around the B+ and A if im having a good day
Octolings should have been playable in splatoon, but hopefully in spla2n they will fix this
i blame hackers for ruining the chance at friendly octopods in the first game

Maybe this is a transitional concept art?

i love the phone wallpapers from the this guy

when they showed the dualies in the switch presentation, i thought for sure there'd be some gimmick where you could aim them independently with the two joycons

I thought that too, but then it'd be broken if you had them in the controller.

hello /ink/

...

i wonder if the slosher and splatlings are going to get a buff

i can imagine the splatling having the same thing as the charger

Is it worth getting into this game or is it too late?

I'd say so. We had a guy here last weekend I think who'd just picked it up and was having a blast.

if you're not getting a switch, then it's still a good time to get into splatoon1, just note that since you waited too long, you won't get the full experience.

hopefully splatoon2's life is longer so you can join us, we'd love to play together

...

How long are sheldon's speeches if you start a new account these days?

Inklings with more realistic lighting are deeeep down the uncanny valley.

It doesn't bother me

I'm kinda surprised no one's done one of those horrifying photoshops like that "realistic Mario" image.

Other than the woomy on the far right it looks fine to me.

>goggles aren't clear
dead on arrival

>not having smoked goggles

Fuck are you talking about?

I feel ya. I find that the inklings look pretty terrible in Mario Kart 8. Especially the paler ones.

Does the forbidden image not count?

There'd better be more color choices than just those.

Don't open this

They were almost worse. Instead of 3d models it was like blended together photos of flesh and cloth to make plausible renderings of vidya characters.

whoops

>VK yebbie

thank you squid jesus

...

These spaghettifags are getting really obnoxious.
Meanwhile, Octoposting has died down.
Coincidence?

octojews fear the gay spaghetti

Perfect.
Save for that god awful sweater

please go deeper. i require links

nah we gotta space out the gay squid boy posting

here's a couple:

nice but not lewd enough. and there are never new pixiv stuff

fuck off

oh, I thought you just wanted the links to what you were replying to. sorry, I don't really save actual porn.

woomy

woomy?

tako!

Worship Octolings.

Is it just me or has this place been getting shittier and shittier

/ink/ was never good. Post cute Octos.

I actually agree. I think it's because you'd have to be pretty damn autistic to stick around a dead general for so long.

This is what I mean

...

xd

>Post cute
>Posts lewd
>Not even spoilered
user's got balls.

look, I now you mean well, but please don't waste the image limit on these cringy reaction images

indeed lets instead waste them on shitty beings who aren't even in the game or on the cover

what? octolings are in the game. did I hallucinate the entire sp campaign?

wow this thread is shit today

how do you guys feel about the lack of returning specials? i'm gonna miss bomb rush personally

forgive me ink, i have sinned bad

i used luna neo with stacked quick respawn just to rank up


i was only 9 points away..... im A+ now

but isn't bomb rush coming back in the form of that auto throwing contraption thing

I'm not gonna miss a single special. I want new stuff, not the same old shit. call me mad, but I live for change for the sake of change.
get to S+ with it. then I'll be truly disgusted.

im gonna miss sprinklers....

do you think theyre gonna have a decoy sub? ill make big cums with that, i love throwing sprinklers right in front of people and watch them turn to go shoot it

I'm sure they'll have some passive specials. it's kinda worrying that they've only shown super offensive shit so far, though. personally, I want more beakons.

this is some terrible art

I'm glad the panic-button options are gone. Nothing wrong with the idea of the Bubbler and Kraken, but fuck it's irritating when you take a shot at someone and suddenly *ping* you're dead.

I thought it was quite nice...

>that auto throwing contraption thing
this thing? there doesn't seem to be any variants of it though, with bomb rush you had suction bomb rush, burst bomb rush, etc.
apparently it can only be targeted at opponents too

youtu.be/qN4w5D2tzME?t=69
this thing at the timestamp
looks like a bomb rush replacement to me

i hadn't even noticed that, thank you user

I remember when that trailer came out.

My god that was so much fun.

the fun times will come yet again, user!

...

I want to play as an urchin

#Urchinlivesmatter

Why is the Switch so damn expensive? I want to play the testfire becaue they were fun last time but spending $470 just for a hour of play I can't justify. Price drop this shit already, Nintendo!

Does anyone have a good remix of Calamari Inkantation? Preferably something with a "club" feel. You know, heavy bass and what not.

>Preferably something with a "club" feel
Jesus kid

This just in:

Apparently after going for a bit, rollers' top speeds increase marginally, allowing faster ink coverage. Not much of a change, but a significant one nonetheless.

i don't wanna imagine a carbon warping while running and teleporting behind you even faster than they do now

>This just in:
we talked about this last thread.
>accelerating carbons
leg day will finally pay off, I suppose...

The better questions is, will run speed finally affect rollers too? Maybe at least give this top speed buff even more speed.

Bad taste.

...

I wasn't here last thread. Sue me.

live

goodnight callie
i love you

RIP Echo, Inkstrike and Wail. I loved me some low-commitment specials.

i'll miss wail for rainmaker especially
i hope rainmaker comes back

It's cheaper than your smartphone, despite being waaaay more powerful. If you think about it like that, it stops feeling expensive.
