EH_STEVE Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 I ordered mine through Amazon.com with the slowest shipping... no idea when it'll show up in Canada. Quote Link to comment
Art_de_Cat Posted July 21, 2017 Author Share Posted July 21, 2017 Picked up the game and new amiibos, would be available to do matches this weekend after 11pm est when I get home from work. Quote Link to comment
purple_beard Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Has anyone worked with the online app? Seems the functions are good but the work around for voice is kind of annoying--at least based on "reviews" I have heard and read. Quote Link to comment
Gold Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 So, the Callie/Marie amiibo are locked until a certain point apparently. However, I was only able to get one item apiece from 1set of the old and 1 set of the new amiibos. Anyone know how to unlock more items from them? Quote Link to comment

I'm pretty sure they said something like "I'll give you more when you're stronger" or something along those lines. So you probably unlock more when you level up in multiplayer, or maybe from playing the story mode though that seems less likely. Quote Link to comment

Art_de_Cat Posted July 22, 2017 Author Share Posted July 22, 2017 Would it be better to focus on story mode for upgrades, or do the multiplayer for leveling up? Quote Link to comment

Do you mean purely for unlocking new weapons and clothes? I'd probably say multiplayer, especially for the first five or so levels which should give you all of the basic weapons. Story mode is good practice though; personally I've been bouncing between both. On 7/21/2017 at 5:11 PM, Gold said: So, the Callie/Marie amiibo are locked until a certain point apparently.

By the way I unlocked all of the amiibo items at level 9. Not sure if you can do it earlier but 9 should be the highest you'll need to be. Quote Link to comment
TKrazyO Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 I'll be streaming some Splatoon 2 on Twitch in a few minutes if anyone would like to watch. https://www.twitch.tv/tkrazyo/ Quote Link to comment
Eliwood8 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Why does it seem like when a friend joins a match they always end up on the opposite team? I know it's random but it feels like the majority of the time your friend ends up as an enemy. Also I am loving Salmon Run, especially as a palate cleanser between turf/ranked matches since it does get repetitive playing the same two maps for two hours–at least the rotation is more frequent, though. But Salmon Run is great for when you need a break and you are forced to try out different weapons which can be good practice. Kind of like Mystery Heroes in Overwatch, and speaking of which I'm still screwing up my special sometimes in Splatoon 2 since the ult button is different in Overwatch and I've been playing that pretty much nonstop all year.

Gold Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 It is 100% bullshit that Salmon Run is only 12 hrs every other day Quote Link to comment
Gold Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 The scroll from stage 12 is savage Quote Link to comment
purple_beard Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2017/07/guide_all_the_splatoon_2_amiibo_unlocks What you get in the game with your amiibos. Quote Link to comment
Eliwood8 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 1 hour ago, Gold said: It is 100% bullshit that Salmon Run is only 12 hrs every other day I really don't get why they felt the need to do that. The only thing it may vaguely affect is the fact that there are daily bonuses for each 12 hour block, but it's not like they couldn't have done that and kept the mode open 24/7. I would love to see them patch it so that Salmon Run is open all of the time, but I feel like that's unlikely since they're still holding fast to other weird habits like the two map rotation thing from the first game.

alienboyva Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Is it just me or does any one else feel like they should add CPUs to local privet battles? It's not that easy to get 7 people to together who have a Switch and a copy of the game, and playing with less than 7 people, especially, uneven teams, just isn't as fun. Also, this would be great for playing the game solo when on-the-go. Yeah, imagine if in MK8DX the only mode you could play solo offline was mission mode (I know is not actually in the game), unless you had people to play locally with? People would lose their shit! I know it's a lot easier to play locally in MK8DX since it as split-screen (tabletop mode + Joy-cons), but not in Splatoon 2. So, why is it OK for Splatton 2 only let you play Hero Mode solo offline? I think Nintendo has forgotten that the Switch is a portable too...Or at least the devs at the Squid Research Lab. Hopefully this will be added in a future update. Doc Brown 1 Quote Link to comment
Art_de_Cat Posted July 26, 2017 Author Share Posted July 26, 2017 Question: Do the amiibos only give one of the many things they have? I know they mentioned they would give more gifts as you improved... but after raising a few levels they didnt give anything else? Quote Link to comment
Gold Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 The other stuff comes around level 5 and 9 I believe. You might have to scan on different days though. Quote Link to comment
