Nintendo Japan has confirmed via Twitter that a new Splatoon multiplayer map will be added tomorrow. Those of you that have delved into the single player should be familiar with Kelp Dome as it is one of the stages. Soon it will be added to the multiplayer map rotation. Here’s when it will be available in each region.
- Europe: 4AM
- UK: 3AM
- North America (EDT): 10PM (today)
- North America (PDT): 7PM (today)
- Japan: 11AM
Was this in the single player campaign? I feel like I’ve seen this place before.
Yes
Thanks. I thought so.
Maybe if I read the article first I could have answered my own question.
Yeah. I so totally called that this was gunna be a stage. There are also plenty of other single player stages too that can be utilized out side of it.
>>>I’m still undecided about this game>>>
buy it
>>>But there is no voice chat, I need it badly, I can’t live without it>>>
Use Skype, the Gamepad Mic Quality sucks ass anyway.
>>>But Skype has voice chat, I hate it>>>
But wouldn’t that give you an unfair advantage over an opponent?
You think you need it. Trust me, you don’t.
>>>But my life is over if there is no voice chat>>>
>>>But my life is over if voice chat is not implemented>>>
Ha. I see what you are doing. ;)
It really seems the community is split down the middle. I’m waiting till all the “free” content is released, and see what the complete game looks like pre-paid DLC.
It’s probably like flipping a coin at this point. Maybe you’ll love it maybe not. I’m certain I’d really like it for a while, I’m concerned about whether I’ll keep playing it after the novelty has worn off. Not worth $60 to gamble for me.
Same here. Every time new content is released I get excited andwant to go and buy it, but at the same time there are tons of other games that I want that are much cheaper and may actually last longer in the fun factor.
lol. cybernetic social reject needs human contact.
I think Nintendo was smart to not have voice chat. As it is technically a kids game, with adults playing the chat could get very heated, negative and full of curse words that could lead to parents complaining or filing against Nintendo for allowing such bad things to happen. Even though the game says ages 10+ you know younger kids will be playing it, but just my opinion
Nintendo is a pussy company Playstaion got voice chat kids and adults play there ….there us no excuse u bastard
Just wait till August then, might be available for cheaper, with all the summer content available
>>>By then the studies starts again and I won’t have much time to play anyway>>>
I miss voice chat a ton for Splatoon, but it isn’t a deal breaker. Sure, you can’t actively communicate, but from what I’ve seen there’s a general idea of where each person’s supposed to go. But I must say, the single player mode has been quite boring. Just a warning
That’s what I’ve heard. :/
I’ve passed. So far I don’t regret it.
Half my friends said it got boring after single player was over and they played the few multiplayer maps for a while. I mean, It’s a gimped shooter, what do they expect. Typical Nintendo trying to shit so much on their own great ideas so they end up stinking.
I kinda agree. I even actively tried to “extend” the singleplayer by only allowing myself to play 5 levels at most per day, lmao.
But yea, there is so much Nintendo has done wrong with the game. One of the things that annoy me the most is how the maps in the online mode are handled. You end up playing on the very same map 5, 6 times in a row way too often, which is extremely annoying. I mean, if there are only two maps available, at least alternate between them each round, instead of making it absolutely random which of the two will come up.
The fact that the choice of weapons and gear is pretty damn limited as well isn’t helping the game either. The only thing that keeps me playing are the ranked battles and me being too ambitious to give up before reaching the highest rank – which is kind if difficult when there is absolutely no balance and decent matchmaking, so whether or not you’ll win is highly determined by luck, lmao.
I like it but what’s keep running through my mind is “This map is a total mess”
this is seriously the funniest game out this generation if you’re looking for an online multiplayer shooter
I’d give the funniest shooter of this gen to TF2…
Nope plants vs zombies garden warfare wins. They have a chili bean bomb
Wow this game is clearly unfinished, but you Nintendo fanboys don’t seem to care because it’s Nintendo, yet you call out other games. KMT.
>>>We’ve all had that debate weeks ago, it’s done, now where is that voice chat?>>>
Not coming – you’re either going to find another way to deal with the Voice chatting, or not buy the game…Nintendo don’t believe in offering the service because of the risks/issues towards younger players.
It is solely your choice to support them in this or not – this game will likely not change Nintendos minds on that particular issue, so it probably is not going to happen.
Very true, *especially* after what happened with Swapnote..
>>>I don’t think people got it, I don’t even care about Voice Chat whether it’s there or not, just wanted to fool around since everyone just keeps mentioning that garbage everytime there is a Splatoon news>>>
This argument would work if downloads or updates were required to receive the stages and weapons they’ve been releasing. They aren’t–instead, you simply have to be online and have the game on, indicating all of this content is *already on the disc and is simply being unlocked remotely at set times*.
Not to mention this particular stage appears completely unchanged in the game already, as a single player stage, which this article says.
Not trying to be biased or sound like a Nintendo fanboy or anything, but Splatoon kinda gets a free pass. Because they aren’t charging you for this. All of it’s free. Well, so far anyways.
Well so is Halo 5’s maps, so you’re not a Nintendo fanboy…
Wait is that Harley Quin?? I just so happened to finish playing Arkham Asylum a few hours ago. Coincidence much?!
This map seems like it’s going to be a nightmare to navigate.. think i’ll steer clear of it when it’s in rotation for ranked.
The one zone ranked battles are killing me lately. First to the zone wins far too often
Splatoon is kiddie sissy game big boys dont play games like this lol
new map is pretty fun and you load up on the points pretty easy
