No one's talking about the new Splatoon news? You'll want to.

"Game won’t use CPU fighters; only once 8 human players have been found will a match start"

Don't have problems with this, as long as they're referring to online only. I don't wanna play with bots online. However, I'd love an option to play with bots offline if I'm in the mood for some action not online or for when the internet is down.


"Having multiple modes with random matching would limit the number of players per mode, so all the focus is on the 4 vs. 4 for that"

Now this is bad news imo. It sucks if the turf mode is the only one available. I'd love for a 1 vs 1, 2 vs 2, 4 vs 4 vs 4, deathmatch, capture the flag, and others of the like. This for me could be a deal breaker. Probably now won't be day one full price game for me at least...


"No communication with players you are matched with"

Culdn't care less for me, but I admit it would be nice for others to have this option. If it's because of little kids, why not include voice chat off only for wiiUs with parental control activated? Or some kind of user age restrictions for voice chat?
