Mario Kart 8 was perfectly fine without Voice chat because it's a racing game, and we don't need to hear 11 other players voices online. But an online MULTIPLAYER not having voice chat?! At first I didn't mind it at first because the game was so much fun! But later after awhile it got boring because it was the same old thing.... Voice chat really helps making online multiplayer feel like new. I only play Splatoon once every 2 weeks just for 20 minutes then I get bored and play something else. Having no voice chat also made the mulitplayer stressful at times because you can't communicate with your teammates AT ALL. When I blast up in the air and come straight down, I get killed... this would be VERY useful for voice chat to help me "Hey protect me, I'm coming over to you!". I give Splatoon a 7 out of 10. If it had voice chat, I would give it a 9 out of 10. Nintendo really messed up by not putting voice chat. Shame.... |
Well, I'm gonna say that the lack of voice chat kept me playing Splatoon... I'm serious! I see Splatoon as a more cerebral shooter because you need to be really smart in some situations as you can't count with voice chat. I'm the only one to blame. Everytime. It's the same for my foes. There's no 3x1 or 2x1 in Splatoon anytime. It's always 1x1 (kind of) because your foes can't coordinate even when you're outnumbered.
Also, lag is bad enough without it and, to be honest, I think that almost all information you need is on the screens. You just need to look at the gamepad now and then and you'll know almost everything you would want. Also, maps are fairly small and you can tranverse it pretty quickly and ranked modes maintain teams in a even small area (zones, tower, rainmaker).
Splatoon is a frenetic shooter in a small map. In the end, voice chat wouldn't add much and would worst the connection.
About the killing after the super jump, you should use the perk that keep your jump undetectable. I think this is the most useful perk in the game.
