How to make Splatoon 2 better than Splatoon.

[Yerm]

wow, ok, not reading all that. here are just a few small details that I would be happy with-

1. improve Squid mechanics. right now we can swim and climb walls. I would like it to be easier to go around corners when moving on walls, and swimming on ceilings would awesome. maybe also make squids a bit more dynamic when moving.

2. Improve on the game's central hub. I would to be able to actually explore Inkopolis and have a bigger immersive world with more stores and feature. Im not saying it has to be open-world, but at least the size of the hub worlds we got in the Mario 3D platformers.

3. Local multiplayer. If the rumors of a standard tablet controller are true, then local co-op needs to revamped. Give us more than the 5 basic maps, no more balloons, let us have local online squads, just everything.

4. Stage choosing. Stage rotation is fine, and honestly it keeps any one map from being over-used or feeling boring. But if we would just choose from the 2 or 3 maps available instead of random ones, that would be nice.

5. The entire upgrade system needs an overhaul. If i get a weapon, I should be able to upgrade it with bonus effects that directly effect that weapon. that way, clothing would be less trouble to customize, and the bonuses would make more sense.

6. Free-play mode. i dont know why but i think it would be cool if you could have a free-play mode where you and your friends could go into any stage you want and just do whatever you want with no time limits. it could help players plan new strategies for specific courses, make it easier to adjust to new maps, and it would be great for when you get super bored and just try to cover the entire map in ink. (we all do it in the test room and Octo Valley, dont lie)
