Me neither, I'm only taking issue at the apparently one online mode and no regional matchmaking.

Oh dont worry and stop expecting things for a game. Just try it and im sure you will enjoy it. Nintendo knows what it does.

I'm addicted to capture the flag in games. It would be so easy to implement.
I don't even use voice chat, and the 4 vs 4 is fine, if they intend to add more modes I'm open to it, as long as the single player is a lot of fun.

If Splatoon has less content than expected of a full-price game then it should be cheaper than the average $60, sure. But having different content is a good thing. And we don't know all of Splatoon's content, we don't know how many maps it has, how many different kinds of weapons it has, what kind of local multiplayer it has, how long its single-player is. The devs flat-out describe Hero Mode as a 3D platformer, so if you insist on demanding that Splatoon follow the same standard practices as other games in its genre, let's compare its online multiplayer to that of other 3D platform games. Such as......... such as........... y'know.... all those online multiplayer 3D platform games...... whose names escape me right now. It just doesn't make any sense to me to say, "This title has similar gameplay to those other titles, therefore it has to have the same kind of content." That is the path that leads to stagnation. WHY CAN'T YOU SEE THE PATHETIC LIMITATION OF THE SPIRAL RACE |
lol thanks for linking that video!
I know Splatoon has single player and local multiplayer which I'm absolutely grateful for since other shooters lack these sometimes. But Nintendo has been marketing its online multiplayer much more than its single player. I wouldn't be surprise if the single player has only 10+ hr of content like other shooters, because this game was cleary made with multiplayer in mind. I mean the first reveal trailer only showed multiplayer. It wasn't until last December that we had any info on single player and the game is coming out this May!
Mario Kart 8 was also released in May last year, and I don't think that's a coincidence. I'm confident that Nintendo is going to market Splatoon as their next big multiplayer series in the online shooter genre. Now local multiplayer could be a blast and have a lot of modes. But this game is a shooter, and it deserves to have multiple modes in online. And making them exclusive to friends only isn't enough when other shooters in the market don't do this.
Splatoon shouldn't be excused for having only one random online multiplayer mode because it isn't like CoD, Battle Field, or any other shooters. Team Fortress 2 isn't like CoD or Battle Field but it has more than one random online mode to play. Excusing Splatoon for having only one online mode with anyone/random players because it is different is cutting Nintendo slack for not embracing online gameplay again.
Edit: What is the official term for online modes that lets you play with anyone. I think I've been saying random but I'm not sure if others agree with that terminology.

I know, but try to apreciate the games for what they are and not for what they could have been.
| fleischr said: I'd like to take a minute to bring up the WiiU's other upcoming shooter: Devils Third -- which happens to already have all the above features pretty much confirmed. And that's with only the E3 2014 info and some interviews/teases of the game. Maybe Splatoon is rushed, but Devil's Third isn't. Maybe we're hyping up the wrong shooter for WiiU. So to answer your questions ... are we asking too much from Nintendo? No. They're able to develop titles with these kind of features. Have we taken for granted that other FPS and TPS offer much more options? Yes. Clearly there's another upcoming shooter on WiiU with more robust features -- but many WiiU gamers treat it like garbage. NIntendo gamers do tend to like to white-knight the cause of "gameplay matters more than graphics" - but not in the case of DT (which probably really has more intricate graphical detail than Splatoon does) I think we'll get more than a few good surprises in a Splatoon direct and it'll be a great game. But honestly, I don't think these features really matter to a lot of Nintendo fans -- but they may prevent Splatoon from really reaching a mass audience. |
Thanks for answering both questions. I think you're the only one so far lol. And you make an interesting point about Devil's Third. I think that game is getting more and more positive attention and is gaining more hype with each news about its diverse online gameplay and it totally deserves it.

Here is another similar valid question: Are you from another planet? Because I have no proof that you are human, never in you post you prove you are human, so you must be a Roswell!!! Being serious now, your title is very misleading! By your logic: 2+2= green, so it's pizza! |
The title is arguably misleading but the question is warranted. Splatoon lacks features that are essential and present in most shooters in the market today. Not having those ready at launch could result from Nintendo disregarding online gameplay again or the lack of time in creating polished online modes for random matches online with voice chat.
nintendo dont want you to hear random people insulting you verbally while playing.
is not time, is nintendo.
