Splatoon 2 | Trailer | Discussion Thread
Version 4.0 has arrived for Splatoon 2, bringing with it new weapons painted with monotone designs created by the gear brand Toni Kensa. Solo and Team modes will also be replaced with Normal and Pro modes.
"In Normal mode, you can jump into a Splatfest Battle on your own or join up with one to three friends from the same Splatfest team. If you join a match as a group of two or three, random solo players will be matched up to make a group of four. In this mode, the amount you ink is added to any win bonus you get to determine your clout. If your team is on a win streak, the game will try and match you against teams with a similar streak. Moreover, when weapons, gear, or general styles of four players in your team meet certain conditions, a nickname and a matching bonus will be given to your team."
"Pro mode is for those who want to go solo and push themselves to the limit. In Pro mode, you're judged on your Splatfest Power. Raise it high enough and you could make it into the Splatfest Top 100! In this mode, you increase your clout by beating the opposing team. You get more clout for beating teams with a higher Splatfest Power."
10x Battles and even rarer 100x Battles will also be added to both Normal and Pro divisions, where victory will multiply your points by the specified amount, so you'll definitely want to perform at your best whenever you find yourself in one of these matches!
