splatoon apologist saying they dont want to split the userbase because of load times.. lol what? who cares, no one complains about having to wait other games, it happens, but it allows us to play the modes. what the shit nintendo, YOU DONT EVEN DO THIS FOR MARIO KART! so dont give me this "we always do this" please, in mario kart, i can play any style, any speed, anything, it doesn't matter. but in splatoon i cant play seperate modes? fuck off, you got a million players, let me play all the maps, let me play all the modes. This is easy shit!! how do you get the easy things so wrong when youve gotten them right in the past, but get the hard things right? WHAT ARE YOU NINTENDO


rant over


There are only 2 modes in MK8, battle and racing. Splatoon also has two, ranked and turf war. So what you're saying, doesn't make a lot of sense, unless you also count tournaments in mk8, but those have bots, which wouldn't work as well in Splatoon. The only way you can choose your speed etc in mk8 is with friends, which will also come to splatoon in August.

This changed quite some time ago.  Custom rules allows you to select a number of parameters, including speed, for regular online play.

I suspect we'll get it sooner or later in Splatoon but I'd rather be able to choose now.  So far I'm not a big fan of Tower Control, it's just too much of a cluster fuck for my liking.  So the fact that it replaces Splatzones for 24 hours at a time is a bit of a drag. Who knows, after I experiment with some different loadouts I might find I get used to it.
