    Yes, its just a tutorial and you can walk around the plaza and vote for which side you want to be on for the splatfest, after that theres noting to do, i wish they would have had at least a firing range to test out the weapons in the meantime :-/

    So in our time, it means japans one is at 8am - 12 pm, europe is on 5- 9 pm and then we can hope on to the american one from 10pm - 2am.

    im not sure if my conversion is right about the japanese time window (9+ hours i think), but im looking forward to the european and american ones anyway.

    More importantly, it's Ice Cream and Pop, as if there was any question.

    Anyone hop on this morning? What did ye main, i tried the charger this time, need to perfect the motion controls tho.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,067 ✭✭✭safetyboy


    The new motion controls are a nightmare.

    Did you adjust them in the settings? I tried the same sensitivy as splat1 and seemed near enough, tying to center tge new pro controler on a flat surface is a nuisance tho.

    Just registered and ready to go. Team Ice Cream


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,320 ✭✭✭Ace Attorney


    Getting mostly ice cream vs ice cream matches :/


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,062 ✭✭✭Sarn


    All the matches I've played were cake v ice cream. I really need to work on my motion control skillz.


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,878 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Like the recon option to play the maps by yourself

    Not loving the new controls either. When using motion controls you can't use the right stick to look up or down its very awkward I must say. And what happened the mini squid game while looking for battles!


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,878 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Anyone else have trouble getting to the other end of the maps. It's there only one route. Any time I try I'm cut off by unclimbable surfaces

    Anybody up for a team battle? We dont have to voice chat just plain old you and yer switch.
