- the game's shading mechanism has changed, which allows for increased gear texture quality - all graphical aspects and programming mechanisms have been built up from scratch for this sequel - maximum resolution is 1080p in TV mode - a bigger focus for Nintendo was the 60 frames per second - occasionally the resolution will be scaled down when there is too much ink displaying on the screen - Nintendo reduced the CPU load and refined the way
to use CPU power effectively
to maintain 60 fps in all matches - weapons were tweaked
to let
players be more creative by thinking about unique weapon characteristics and their best uses - weapons are designed
to be effective when they are used during the right occasion - Special weapons are stronger than the original ones when used in the right situation, but weaker otherwise - the
damage and effect of slowing down your movement when you step in the opponent's ink are reduced from original - you can jump up in rank if you're good enough, but only up until S - you can't jump up from C, B or A
to S + - when you win battles in Ranked mode, the Ranked meter fills and your rank goes up when its fully filled - when you lose a battle, the gauge does not decrease, but the meter starts
to crack - once the meter reaches its limit, it breaks - when the meter breaks, you have
to start over again from the beginning or from a lower rank - highest rank is still S +, but if you fill up the Ranked meter, you get numbers after the alphabet such as «S +1», «S +2» and so on - maximum number is «S +50», but this number will not be displayed
to your opponent - you are the only one
to see it, and you can check it on your own status screen - Ranked Power is calculated by an algorithm
to measure how strong each
player is with minuteness - this will determine if a
player's rank is worthy of receiving a big jump (like from «C»
to «A»)- Ranked Power has no relation
to your splat rate, and is more tied into
to how well you lead your team
to victory - you won't drop off more than one rank even if you play poorly - stage rotation time was changed
to two hours - this was done because the devs expected people
to play for an hour or so, but they found people play much longer - with Salmon Run, Nintendo considered how
to implement a co-op oriented mode in a
player - versus -
player type of game - the devs will monitor how users are playing this mode
to see if there's some tweaks they can throw in - more Salmon Run maps will be added in the future, but Nintendo wouldn't comment on adding more
enemy types
to the mode - rewards are changed each time Salmon Run is played - you can obtain rewards when playing locally, but not gear - originally Nintendo had an idea for this mode, but had no background setting,
enemy designs, etc. - Inoue suggested that it should be salmon - themed - when Nintendo hosted the Splatfest that pit Callie against Marie, the development of Splatoon 2 had started - the devs had already decided
to have the result reflected in the sequel - they even had an idea
to announce the Splatfest with a phrase «Your choice will change the next Splatoon» - the timing
to announce a sequel wasn't right, so they decided against this - they eventually released a series of short stories about the Squid Sisters
to show how the Splatfest affected the sequel's story - Nintendo wouldn't say if Marina is an Octoling, and noted that Inklings are not paying attention
to this too much - Inklings don't care about appearances, as long as everyone is doing something fresh - the Squid Sisters had composers who produced their songs, but Off the Hook are composing their music by themselves - Pearl is genius artist, but she couldn't find a right partner because she's a bit too edgy - she eventually found Marina as a partner though, and their chemistry is sparkling right now - Nintendo is planning a year of content updates for Splatoon 2 - when finished, the quantity of stages will be more than the original - some of the additional stages are totally new and some will be arranged stages from the first game - not all original stages will return and they are choosing stages based on the potential for them
to be improved - Brella is shotgun-esque weapon, so the ink hits your opponent more if you are closer - it can shield
damage when you open it, but the amount of
damage has a limit and once it reaches it, it breaks - you can shoot ink, but you can't use the shield feature when it breaks - the shield won't prevent your allies ink - there are more new weapon categories which haven't been revealed yet - there are no other ranked modes outside of the three current options - the future holds any sort of possibility, but the devs didn't get specific about adding more content like that - for the modes, they adjusted the rule designs so that
players will experience the more interesting aspects
