Connection issues fix suggestions???

I have seen sporadic posts about connectivity issues and I’m wondering if anyone has found a fix? I tried contacting Nintendo and updated DNS settings, but it still has not fixed the issue. I have never had so many issues with connecting and I’m very frustrated. I’m up to the 20 minute “hammer drop”

Is the game still Competitive

I’ve been thinking about going back but I don’t know if the regular turf war is still full of competive people same thing happened with 1 and 2 but I never went back so is it still like that because I would love to play again

No one talking about this? (Splatoon Raiders)

Of course we know that choice of species and gender alters the player character’s voice, but this wasn’t a thing in Splatoon 3 —

The fact that they are choosing to highlight how your character’s voice will sound definitely seems to imply a much more prominent role from our player, rather than the blank slates of past games (possibility of dialogue options when speaking to characters??) —

Am I the only one that just... doesn't like any of the ranked modes? (Except zones)

Ive tried SO hard over the last 2 years to enjoy playing ranked. I reached X rank a while ago and it was a great achievement for me personally but I just cannot bring myself to truly like any of the modes

Clam blitz is just god awful. I simply do not play it at all. like ever. if its in rotation I just tell myself "welp guess im not playing ranked right now"

Tower control is... eh. Meh. I can play it and i do somewhat often but its just not fun riding tower (and yes I do ride tower often lol). The only way to win is making yourself an open target to everybody

Rainmaker I have such mixed feelings about. I do kind of like playing it. its the other ranked mode I'll choose to play and be fine doing it. again its just you have to make yourself a target for everyone to win. the rainmaker weapon itself is nice at least. I dont hate this mode but I dont love it either. It's just okay.

Now splat zones is something I can get behind. I do actually like playing it. its different from all the other modes and im seeing a pattern here that when you play zones you dont have to make yourself an open target in order to win. I think that might be why I like it. but its also sorta similar to turf war which is my favorite mode

I mostly play turf war (begrudgingly, since im an e-liter main and chargers aren't the best for turf war). I think its fun cuz its so much more freeing. like you have room to just run around and have fun which I think is why I like playing it. its just the big major issue I have is how you can be winning the entire game but you get wiped out in the last 20 seconds and suddenly you just lose. but oh well I still like playing it.

If ranked mode rotations didnt just shuffle in different game modes every 2 hours and instead had splat zones always available, I would be over the moon. and I would love playing this game so so so so much more.

also i hate that getting knocked out nets you ZERO coins. that is absolutely diabolical in my opinion lol.

Buuuuuutt I know many many people like most if not all the ranked modes and thats great. im not judging anyone at all for liking the game modes. I'm just venting and I just wish that there was something else to it. idk what though

Is there a normal octo cushion?

I know there's the 8-bit one, but I would like to have one that isn't 8-bit in my locker because I like the more rounded look better. I wish they would update the lockers and at least give us non 8-bit octo cushions if not :[
