TalkBack / Re: Major Splatoon Update Comes August 5

« on: July 27, 2015, 07:10:53 PM »

This is great and all, but I was really hoping to see them expand the map selection in this August update.  Why still limit it to just 2 maps that only change every four hours?  Even during the Splatfests they at least make three maps available.  Since the number of maps has increased I'm not sure why they don't do this.

Also, how about allowing load out changes while waiting for games to start?

I personally don't care that there's no voice chat in Splatoon.  I've played online shooters on the other consoles and I just end up muting everyone anyway, because to be honest, there is almost never any talk about the game.  It's usually just teenagers being obnoxious with the foul language.  I'm glad to have a family friendly shooting style game that isn't violent and, to this topic, that my kids can play without me worrying about them hearing every swear in the book.  And unfortunately, you know there would be more of that going on than any kind of team coordination.

Not to mention, Splatoon is so quick and chaotic you don't have much time to set up any grand plans.  Decent players can use the map to see where teammates are and work accordingly.  If you're not inclined to do that then somebody yelling at you in voice chat isn't going to help.

I can see having voice chat for talking to friends and what not, but I'm actually happy it isn't in Splatoon.  I can actually play in peace.
