Despite errors, keep trying guys, gotta stress those servers.

 

[Leona Lewis]

Can't connect, either to eshop or S2.

Net is def working. Probs getting hammered ATM. This is why 1 hour beta windows are dumb. U.K. Based.

Same.

;___;

 

[wild wild rice]

Does everyone know Treehouse is doing a livestream?

Ha...didn't expect the outfits.

 

[Amani]

In the lobby for a third time. This might take a while, patience folks.

 

[wbEMX]

Great, something comepletely killed my internet on Switch over night. Internet connection tests fail immediately in either LAN or wireless.

Kill me.

 

[nckillthegrimace]

In the full game, there will be. Not sure about this beta. Give it some time though, they'll grow on you, IMO. I love being able to use motion to fine-tune my aiming, it's very similar to how the aiming works with the bow in Zelda.

Can't get into a game. :/ Not sure if it's the servers, or my job's shitty wifi though.

No, it isn't. You can't aim vertically with the stick and then fine-tune with gyro, which is what I want to do.

 

[Jintor]

Awake in Australia for 6am squidding

 

[robotrock]

Wow I'm wrecking in this game

This is exactly why they did 1 hour beta windows though. Part of it is, yes, to get people hyped for the game, but this is also supposed to be something that benefits the dev team, so they understand what kind of server loads to expect and plan for.

 

[ngower]

Is there no way to turn off motion controls?

 

[SgtWiggles]

Lol won my first game. I'm absolutely loving this

I don't mind them in Zelda or other games. It's just that I can't move the camera up and down at all. Also I can't play it lying down the switch wants me to sit down or else the camera is always in the wrong position.

 

[KraytarJ]

11-0 splat duelies first game. FellsGoodMan

 

[Monumma]

This. Game. Is. 🔥.

 

[random25]

First match was smooth so far.

Still getting used to jump button on B. Kept pressing X lol

 

[KZXcellent]

Got 2 games in so far. This is super legit.

R O L L E R B O Y S

 

[one_kill]

Damn Zelda, I keep bringing up the map instead of jumping.

 

[Eggiem]

Works fine in Germany!

 

[Rezbit]

Still waiting for a game. At least the other 3 also waiting are patient haha.

 

[ASTROID2]

Only getting connection errors.

 

[RandomExpletive]

Still in the same lobby lol, thinking i should restart to get a fresh lobby

 

[Leona Lewis]

Never mind, works now.

RESTART YOUR SWITCHES if it doesn't connect past the title screen

A little hard to tell, but I think this is sub-native resolution even in portable mode. Very shimmery and Vita-esque

 

[Dartastic]

Oh shit come on one more player let's gooooo I wanna have a matchhhhh

 

[The Technomancer]

is the eshop down for anyone else?

 

[WonkyPanda]

Fuck. Feels good to be back. No connection issues yet

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Only played the tutorial but it's so impressive playing Splatoon on a handheld.

 

[Bedameister]

Cool game. After 2 games now the lobby won't fill.

 

[bobbychalkers]

I forgot how fun Splatoon was.....

 

[careksims]

Losing streak ahoy! All my teams suck so far!

 

[Interfectum]

is the eshop down for anyone else?

Restart your Switch.

 

[OnionPowder]

Just won (and got MVP) in my first match. Game is a blast.

Gyro aiming is disappointing. Let me aim vertically please and then fine tune with the gyro.

 

[11redder]

First match was smooth so far.

Still getting used to jump button on B. Kept pressing X lol

Yup, died twice in my first round due to pulling up the map screen by mistake rather than jumping. Feels really smooth though.

 

[Osahi]

Wait. You can t turn yhe awfull motion aiming of? Or am i missing something?

 

[SephirothRK]

Is there no way to turn off motion controls?

Press + when choosing your weapon, there is an option to turn if off.

 

[Galava]

On lobby, move the left stick to distort the music. Don't know if this was on WiiU already.

 

[Formless]

No lag for me even though I get 2 bars, pretty good..

 

[Labombadog]

Besides a minor error trying to join a match my first match was SMOOTH AF. Using wifi 5g in the basement. Router is upstairs.

First time playing Splatoon and holy shit I got DESTROYED.

 

[Kissenkopf]

I thought I would miss the map more.

And the controls feel very good with the joy cons in the grip.

 

[Josh5890]

Never mind, works now.

RESTART YOUR SWITCHES if it doesn't connect past the title screen

THANK YOU!!!

 

[ozz ex machina]

Hey guys, is it me or the the anti-aliasing completely fucked? This is some rough fucking edges.

Also crazy people who love gyro controls. Y'all are crazy.

 

[psyfi]

as someone who's never played Splatoon before there is A LOT to learn

I'm definitely not enjoying it yet, but that's pretty typical for me when I'm first getting into PvP games

 

[Amani]

Started a match with a full house, literally everyone dropped after it started.
I love you stress tests.

 

[AaronMT86]

Motion controls *off* good riddance. Fighting with camera on the pro controller with them on.

 

[Like the hat?]

Wired connection. Silky smooth.

 

[beta_fuse]

First match went really smoothly, was worried there would be lag but not even a bit. Really feels exactly like the first game though lol

 

[TheGreatLugia]

Got in despite bad hotel internet. First match ran smooth and I somehow went 8-1 despite not playing the first game in ages.

Having trouble finding players for a second match, though.

 

[RandomExpletive]

There we go, full game.

Restart the app worked for me

 

[maxcriden]

Tried to join a game five times now, resulting in five "connection failed" notices.


zzzzzz

Anyone getting errors?

I am

Same, my connection wasn't being recognized, restarting the console helps in that case I think.

 

[Inferno313]

Wait. You can t turn yhe awfull motion aiming of? Or am i missing something?

Hit + on the weapon select screen.

Spoiler

it's not awful though

 

[Ein Bear]

Motion controls work best as a way of fine tuning aiming. I'm not a fan of not being able to look and down at all with the thumbsticks.
