I can't seem to find a pattern, which is annoying me as a math guy, lol. Secondly, I actually don't entirely hate the delay, but I do hate how drastic it is. For instance, my team last night controlled the zone from the very beginning of the game and then we lost control and they gained it when we were at 1 point left. We were then assessed a 75 Splatoon second (splecond?) delay! We eventually won, but that delay is just too large. It's basically like we were starting over. Last thing, inkstrike needs to change for Splat Zones. If an inkstrike is called on the zone in the correct spot, your team will always lose control and the other team will actually gain control sometimes solely from the inkstrike. What I don't like about this is that an inkstrike basically gives your team an automatic delay penalty, even if no enemy player is in the area. Anyway, just thought I'd post my thoughts so far. I'm having a ton of fun! |
Don't know the exact numbers but the less time you have left the higher the delay will be. I like this as it allows matches to last the whole 5 minutes and makes you feel like you always have a chance even if the enemy only have a few seconds left, and likewise you can never get comfortable even with an early lead.
A single Inkstrike alone can't take over the zone, only neutralize, and I think that's fair since it's not that useful otherwise in this mode.
