Sheikah Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Ay caramba, that'd be colossal if true. The real question is, would this forum have a flame shield resilient enough to withstand the backlash?
Hero-of-Time Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Ay caramba, that'd be colossal if true. The real question is, would this forum have a flame shield resilient enough to withstand the backlash? It's held well during the voice chat outbreaks but it may need a reinforcing if any of this turns out to be true.

Serebii Posted May 7, 2015 Author Posted May 7, 2015 This is interesting Japanese Direct is 35 minutes long US Direct is 33 minutes long.
Ronnie Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Isn't this how most of the big online shooters operate now? Destiny, Titanfall etc? As long as there's some online multiplayer from day 1 I don't see a massive problem.
Hero-of-Time Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Isn't this how most of the big online shooters operate now? Destiny, Titanfall etc? As long as there's some online multiplayer from day 1 I don't see a massive problem. Destiny had co-op modes, raids and other stuff to keep people busy. Titanfall on the other hand was very bare bones with its game modes and because of that it lost a loads of players very quickly. I think the worry is ( that's if any of this is true ) is that the player count may drop off really quickly. Strangely, I enjoyed Titanfall far more than I did Destiny.
Ronnie Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 I thought Destiny didn't have its first raid till later?
Hero-of-Time Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 I thought Destiny didn't have its first raid till later? You are correct but it was only a week later, IIRC.
Serebii Posted May 7, 2015 Author Posted May 7, 2015 See you all in...I dunno...August? Like hell I can stay away that long :p
Hero-of-Time Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 See you all in...I dunno...August? Like hell I can stay away that long :p Haha. I'm looking forward to seeing what people are gonna be kicking off over.
yesteryeargames Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Bringing my popcorn for the outcry after this direct
Hero-of-Time Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Bringing my popcorn for the outcry after this direct Should be standard for any of the after Direct discussions on this place.
Pestneb Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 (edited) Not too fussed so far... have we learnt anything new? **edit** ok getting a few more interesting bits now Edited May 7, 2015 by Pestneb
drahkon Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Did I understand this right? Joining friends is possible but teams are always randomly switched so whether or not you play with them is governed by chance?
Cube Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Joining friends is possible but teams are always randomly switched so whether or not you play with them is governed by chance? It's not uncommon. Call of Duty does it.
drahkon Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 It's not uncommon. Call of Duty does it. So? It's still shit. The direct had me getting excited for the game. I was almost at the point where I put down a pre-order. And then this...
Zechs Merquise Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 So you can't be on the same team as the friends you're playing with? Also, is it really only two maps playable at any one time?
Cube Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Proper teams is an August update. Splatoon will get a major update in August. You'll be able to form teams & play 8 player matches with just your mates
Hero-of-Time Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Ah, it will come in an update. Phew. Seems a bit weird still.
Zechs Merquise Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 It's not uncommon. Call of Duty does it. Call of Duty doesn't do that - unless they've started with Advanced Warfare. I've played every COD since Modern Warfare and I never got separated from friends I went into a game with.
drahkon Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Proper teams is an August update. Why is it not there from the start, though?
Pestneb Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 I don't mind that so much, as long as the shuffle equalises teams, keeps things fresh.
