Haven't had a chance to try them yet. I just got home from work. tongue

I will say I wish they had brought back a stage other than Ancho-V Games, though. Never was a big fan of that one.

Ancho-V Games is a cool stage. Those platforms are fun to mess around with.

STILL NO URCHIN UNDERPASS THOUGH

I'm still miffed the corocoro animation was just a slideshow ._.

Ahahahaha the NILS statue reminds me of Gilva Sunner, also there's a chance the next wave of High Quality Rips are Octo Expansion-based. Let the Octo Invasion of Gilva begin!

Turns out Octarians are sanitized via shower. It seems like concept art, though, so that might've changed.

Speaking of early concepts, check out these beta enemies for the first game!

I was playing as soon as the new weapons and the returning stage became available. I mostly was interested in the return of Ancho-V Games, but I took the new weapons for tests runs in Sheldon's shop like I do every time new weapons come out. Anyway, I was doing really well last night. I don't know if it was because I was using my main weapon (Jet Squelcher) while most other players were trying out the new ones, but I felt like I had an easy time dodging the Bloblobber's blob lobs. Given the videos linked to earlier, however, it seems to have some potential.

The Living Guildpact rules that coffee is an acceptable substitution for rest as specified in subsection … whatever.

The main issue with the Bloblobber is that it has pretty crappy coverage. Each bounce doesn't generate much ink, so you have to rely on teammates for your mobility. It has a ton of kill potential around corners, over ledges, and in tight spaces though. The bouncing allows it to attack from angles that most other weapons wouldn't be able to handle.

Came back to Squidding after a short hiatus and tried out the bathtub for the first time.

It's bonkers.

I've been splatted so many times by the bathtub. If all the bubbles hit you then u ded.

I see the new gatling gun a lot less even though a gatling gun with a stored charge is basically what I wanted. Also Dark Tetra Dualies are way better than the new ones because it has sub-Autobomb and the GTFO button in Splashdown.

Woo! Finally beat Octo Expansion's bonus boss and got that glorious cape A FUCKING TOOTHPICK GODDAMNIT that shiny golden toothpick!

I see what people mean about being aggressive — I'd been keeping to the edge of effective octoshot range out of habit because more range tends to mean more options, but if you charge in and just go for the kill you can take him down in one burst instead of having to whittle him down bit by bit. The only thing that was screwing me up by the end was the fact that I couldn't get the timing of the splashdown phase down — sometimes he'd just do a splashdown seemingly out of phase with the "do three three in a row" thing he normally does. Naturally, this would happen when I was right next to him shooting him in the face, so either the splashdown would get me or it'd break my armor and the next shot (or autobomb) would get me. I never did figure out what triggered it — I just got a run where it didn't happen for whatever reason and I managed to kill him.

Really from Jupiter, but not an alien.
