But I think I should put this out there.
Don’t be a fucking asshole when playing Splatoon.
It’s a game with an audience primarily for children. Not just them, but also some of us not really into competitive gaming like For Glory in Smash or other things like that.
Don’t be the guys that do this.
I was on Team Bubblegum Pink that round, and that map, THAT’S WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE THE ENTIRE MATCH. That team absolutely cornered ours after making a bee-line for our base. We couldn’t even step off the spawn point because there was either a seeker bomb, an Areospray asshat, or a kraken/roller.
The picture above is from TURF WAR where the goal is to cover as much turf in your color as possible. Basically, the nice ‘for fun’ sort of thing, because killing is not the main goal. But these people crossed the line because by the last minute of the game, MY ENTIRE TEAM stopped playing. I was on skype at the time, and I just set down my controller and told my friend what had happened.
It shouldn’t be a surprise that my team ended with about 18% compared to 80 something percent.
But you want to know what happened after all that? Everyone from my team left that room. No one wanted to play against that team again, especially me. I just shut off my system.
I can’t say any of my team was someone that’s a kid, but what if it was? Well CONGRATS you asshole, you just showed someone that this game isn’t meant for them because you’re a glory hog.
The point of this IF YOUR GOAL IS TO BE A SPAWN CAMPER AND PREVENT ANOTHER TEAM FROM PLAYING, YOU SHOULDN’T BE PLAYING AT ALL OR RECONSIDER YOUR FUCKING MOTIVES. As a side note, don’t do this in ranked mode either, because that’s not even part of the damn point of splat zone.
