hug the squid mommy

...

>tfw i realized that you can tell who an artist's favorite squidsister is by how large they draw the tits

You cant say that and not post examples

...

The world needs more cosy sweater squids.

the world needs more tentacle holding. so cute

>how should we fix moray
>what about adding a bunch of totally exposed pathways to the middle
>hmm, I don't know if that'll do it
>what if we make them inklines, so you can't even shoot while you're using them
>genius

which one is looking better? Personally, I'm actually look forward to playing on the new version of towers the most, oddly enough. It's hard to get excited for new stages without actually playing on them first, you know?

The climbing wall one at the moment. The underpass one just looks confused.

One more week.

tfw no switch

Same, but I'll enjoy reading the first impressions.

hello /ink/!!!
i can't believe the testfire is so soon, i'm excited to see how the game changed. it's using the same engine, right?

youtube.com/watch?v=BO_ESzwHB1U
damn this is fresh. it kinda reminds me of Rez.
the art style is identical to the first game, so I guess so.

>that smile as you fire

you will make her smile, right /ink/?

>never going to see it on your character

life is suffering

Stop flustering Annie!

just imagine being wrapped in her tentacles
absolute bliss

I love the outdoors more.

but it'll never happen

I'm almost certain Callie and Marie have molested each other while naked more than once.

...

WOOMY

what are some dream guns you want that will never happen???
>tfw no hydra with point sensor and inkstrike
>tfw no sploosh with suction bomb rush

wonder if we are going to see more composers this time around, didn't naganuma say he wanted to do some songs for splatoon?

I hope that becomes the case. I hope they let a lot more people work on the game.

e-litre + sprinkler

>hydra with point sensor
Which runs out before you get any substantional charge. Good job.
>Rapid Blaster Pro+Splash Wall+Echolocator
Now we're cookin'

rapid pro with splat bombs and kraken
rapid pro with burst bombs and wail

why did range blaster get all the good stuff?

happy belated white day /ink/

[sweats externally]

>splat bombs and cancer
Range would outclass it, Rapro isn't supposed to be anywhere near front lines. Maybe with bubbler, but that's outright cheating.
>burst bombs and wail
This set doesn't work the same way with RBP, its blast damage isn't high enough and firing speed isn't slow enough to justify burst bombs. Plus it has too much range, you'll need bomb range in addition to ridiculous damage up stacking for burst combos. Bad idea. Besides, RBPD's Diswail is naasty when used properly already.
I can see Splash Wall+Inkstrike being excellent on RBPD, Range doesn't deserve that kit. Maybe Spla2n will have RBP+Wall+Tenta-Missiles.

...

gross, why would you want to pass around sickness by spitting in each others mouths, much less with a loser squid

the squid sisters are not sick

>having a sore throat means you're sick
"loser"fags being retarded as always

I only just noticed, teams start out in a different formation now. Made for cool team shots in the trailer, but I wonder if it makes an appreciable difference when you're playing.

...

youtu.be/z8NZ6_EQVf4?t=1m14s

All you have to do is press the splat button THEN jump

>flash when special is charged
that's much, much better than just the flaming tentacles

around 10:45, the player keeps on jump flicking. i was wondering how the vertical flick would work, and i'm pleasantly surprised. it doesn't seem like one of those 'press A to win' things, it actually looks quite hard to use in close-combat situations
maybe dynamos will be fine this time

WAKE UP YOU FUCKS

:3[__]

Sterling work.

thank you

bode

that's a bit ominous

it means bodacious

i hope we can wear the labcoats the research lab wears.
did you know you can just buy labcoats? you don't even have to be a scientist to wear them!

Did you steal this from C&H?
Or was it XKCD

i don't recognize any of those acronyms

It's XKCD. Got linked to that one once.

i'm going to sleep now /ink/
please don't die in the night

...

Cyanide & Happiness
XKCD is ... not an acronym afaik. xkcd.com/544/

explosm.net/comics/4568/

ah, then no, around 2 weeks ago my buddy mentions doing a skit as lab assistance, then informs me labcoats aren't restricted clothing

...

>ika
hey, learning katakana is starting to pay off
thanks for keeping the thread alive, octofag

>thanks for keeping the thread alive, octofag

naughty squidboy...

don't encourage them faggot

they're good people

...

...

user, this is a blue board! you can't post lewd content here!

...

...

goodnight callie
i love you

me on the left very good picture nice job

Octo bump

...

i throw it out so the rest of the team knows where the enemy team is, you b- non team player

...

is it possible for an inkling to NOT be lewd???

...

beefy sweatshirt charger squids are the best baggy sweatshirt charger squids

no never

...

>tfw the metagame for 1 is winding down
>when they turn the servers off it will be lost forever
It doesn't even feel that long ago that it came out.
Although, I do trust that will make splat2n a good sequel.
When do you think they'll take down Wii U servers? How long into it's life cycle did they take down Wii servers?

I'm an S+ H3D/Neo Sloshmo main, and I most definitely know how to use and abuse point sensors. Hydra is too stationary and too far from action to take advantage of them, unless you run something silly like four mains of bomb range.

she looks like she works out
hot

I think as soon as they do, they'll announce something like Splatoon Origins for Switch, or a classic mode for Spla2n, with all the old meta (maybe adjusted a little, like patching in vertical flick and charge-holding, introducing a startup to invincibilities and nerfing Luna's blast damage).

nigga, ive thought about this

bomb range up
ink recovery up
sit in a stationary place
throw at enemies so the team knows where they are
shoot everywhere

We weapons platform now?

we weapons platform

goodnight friends

Thanks, octo.

Thocto.

good morning, /ink/!

it's can't take that much resources to keep it running, can it?

haha, nice

good morning

What does it say.

From Google:
>I will introduce a novel that promptly rescued my Hota'ao famine (because it is English, I abused the dictionary function)

Oh, I get it. The bing translation on twitter made it seem like "famine" was a mistake.
