Is the tutorial still there for salmon run?So funnily enough playing with a friend who doesn't watch game trailers has opened my eyes that the game fails to explain several things. She had constant questions "how do you draw posts, what's Salmon run" etc and finds it confusing. The friend rooms can also be a little hard to understand for a newbie.
The transfer is optional before starting the game. You don't have to delete the Splatoon 2 save data.Question for those that have already played a bit - does the game force you to transfer over your Splatoon 2 data? And if so, what does that entail? Automatically placed in higher online ranks?
It's been so long since I've played Splatoon 2 regularly that I'd much rather just start from scratch again as an absolute newbie. I'm aware that our data is stored on our online accounts this time, so I want to make sure I don't irreversibly transfer over any data that I don't want to.
As Splatoon 2 data was only stored locally, I'll happily just delete my save for that if need be.
No, you can choose to not import it.Question for those that have already played a bit - does the game force you to transfer over your Splatoon 2 data? And if so, what does that entail? Automatically placed in higher online ranks?

There's a mandatory tutorial that covers basics and a second skippable one that goes over bosses.Is the tutorial still there for salmon run?
The mandatory one is also skippable if you transfer Splatoon 2 save data!There's a mandatory tutorial that covers basics and a second skippable one that goes over bosses.
You have a hidden MMR that transfers over bur everyone B- and above in 2 is B- in 3 too.No, you can choose to not import it.
You can play Anarchy Battles early and I'm quite sure everyone (with a Splat 2 save file) starts in B- because I was S rank and ended up there and a friend that played less as well. You also get Golden Tickets to unlock weapons that are usually available at higher player levels.
You're having Best Buy issues too? My store isn't sure when my preorder will be ready and I hope it's available before I leave workUgh. Best Buy still has not given me my code. It’s been a month. What’s the point of pre ordering a digital copy?

Meanwhile my partner ordered it later than me, is getting it shipped (also from Best Buy!), and will be getting it later today - and I didn't ship mine so that I could avoid a mess like this and just get it in-store, ugh.
I'm usually lucky - when I get digital it comes on time, and when I get physical (like now), it's available as soon as the store opens. Not today I guess??Yup. Most places when you do a digital pre order it is so you can pre load it. Like, I can go right now and buy it from Best Buy and get a code instantly, but since I pre ordered - I get nothing. Only reason I used Best Buy is because I had Best Buy cash.
Guess not. Been trying to connect to an agent for the past 20 minutes lolI'm usually lucky - when I get digital it comes on time, and when I get physical (like now), it's available as soon as the store opens. Not today I guess??
So in regards to Sunken Scrolls:Is there a rule on which stages have them and which don't? I spent ages trying to find one on an earlier stage only to find out there wasn't one
they're hidden in the overworld this time
Exactly. It also makes the overworld feel more useful, instead of running from level to level. Some of them provide a good challenge tooAt first I was a little surprised but now I think it's a good change. Having to hunt around and constantly swivel the camera everywhere in the other games kind of broke up the flow of the level. You're still rewarded for exploration in 3 with Power Eggs and in-level items, but now you don't have to worry about missing anything and you can just play and enjoy the level, like in Octo Expansion.
You're not alone there. I don't use motion controls either lolI know it's considered sacrilege on here but the tutorial forcing me to use motion controls just reinforced my desire to never use them again.
EDIT: Don't mind me, I'll just be here scanning amiibo for 20 minutes.
EDIT 2: Nice you get the full amiibo unlocks right away now (or maybe it's because I imported Splatoon 2 data)
Update for you. Called Best Buy digital services. They are blaming Nintendo for not sending them codes. I am not sure whether to believe them or not because I am seeing people who purchased the game from them today got their code instantly.You're having Best Buy issues too?

it's so goodThey really did the single player campaign a disservice in the marketing. This is the best campaign yet, it has the big hub and story and collectibles. The direct almost wrote it off as a training excercise.
Story mode spoiler
why did they make Big Man so absurdly easy, this is the most boring fight in Splatoon history I didn't even have time to see any of his special attacks (if he has any)
I go back and forth. They certainly feel a bit snappier, but I hate contorting my device around in handheld play.You're not alone there. I don't use motion controls either lol
Best damn change they could have made. Now I can just speedrun levels and not worry about missing anything.they're hidden in the overworld this time
I got my own update - the game hasn't arrived at my store yet. The next shipment is coming anywhere from 3 to 4. So now I wait.Update for you. Called Best Buy digital services.

Oh, and no refunds lol
Oh motion controls are definitely superior for aiming, they just feel unnatural to me. I wish it had a pointer system like Wii. Ultimately I don't need them to do well, but I'd be open to using them if I could find some comfortable joycons. I've looked but so far no luck.I go back and forth. They certainly feel a bit snappier, but I hate contorting my device around in handheld play.
agreed I turned those motion controls off immediatelyI know it's considered sacrilege on here but the tutorial forcing me to use motion controls just reinforced my desire to never use them again.

I’m a bucket stan.Just dipping in and out to avoid spoilers to say:
Fuck the bucket!
Not elaborating on it further for now just that Jet Squelcher made that level a breeze. Fuck the bucket and fuck the game for recommending the bucket. Fucket the bucket!
What's the difference between open and series for anarchy battles?
I’m a bucket stan.
