Hey you, player who is about to start the journey of learning motion controls: Something of note that I learned whilst getting used to motion was that it's very easy to find your wrists overturning when in an engagement, which can be pretty uncomfortable if you keep doing it for prolonged periods of time. I learned at +5/+5 sensitivity not because it's objectively better but because it minimises wrist movement and keeps your controller steadier. When you're first learning you'll be confused why your controller is at a 45° angle after an engagement, but once you start getting used to using the right stick alongside the motion controls everything feels more natural. There are going to be a lot of times that you'll just end up aiming all over the place and feeling disoriented and embarrassed, and that's absolutely normal. I forced myself to play a considerable amount of Turf war to take the time getting used to motion, mostly because my opponents got considerably worse and easier to splat. Keeping the stakes low whilst learning means you'll not be stressed if you mess up, but will start feeling proud once you start getting reliable picks on opponents. In terms of weapon choice to start with, if you're not comfortable with a short range shooter until you have the basic mechanics down, try the jet squelcher. It gives you an insane range that lets you very comfortably get used to getting your aim on opponents. Remember, you're only trying to connect shots on your opponent at first, even if you don't splat them until a few games in, you're just ensuring you can aim. I'm still learning about 25 hours of playtime later, but I'm confident in my ability to get my aim on with relative ease. The journey really hurts at the beginning, but you're starting at the vertical side of the mountain that gets less steep the further you climb. Remember, Gem is a player who plays solo queue with some of the best players in the world. Learning to set appropriate goals on the path of learning motion controls is a healthy way to make yourself feel good for getting the small things right. I'm an A rank player now, and I'm proud of that, so the next big step is getting to S. Good luck out there! Hopefully you'll be wiping my team in our future games. 😉

@SquidSchool
2 жыл бұрын
I haven't played through all of the story mode yet, but my guess would be that practice range is still the best option. In story mode, the octos don't respawn and there's a lot of movement and puzzle-solving you have to do to get from one combat encounter to another. Most of them also don't move that much. In Octo Expansion from Splatoon 2, I did really like the inkjet-only levels because it gave you an indefinite amount of practice shooting repeatedly respawning enemies on a special that you can usually only activate in the practice range or anywhere else for a few seconds before having to charge again. If there were such a stage again (I haven't seen it yet but I'm not even halfway done with the story) it would be good for practicing that special. I'd love one of those for Trizooka, that hitbox is really confusing.

The secret stage post-story is great for this. Fighting wave upon wave of Elite Octolings with a varaiety of weapons, subs, and specials being thrown at you is a good way to practice. If you can make it far enough... That secret stage is no joke. Took me over 2.5 hours to clear it. I used to play exclusively stick controls from Splatoon 1, 2, and 3 until a few days ago. I tried to learn it on 2. But i couldn't get used to it. I always felt like i needed more precision but finally broke down and stopped using sticks. Now it feels weird to not have motion. My biggest complaint is that we can't use the stick to look up and down alongside motion controls.

I don’t care or want to care about the Motion vs Stick debate, but I prefer to use motion to feel more connected to the game and refining my aim with quicker turns. This might be good for snipers, although precision would still have to be trained on even with motion. I have done a few games with just stick controls, but motion just feels right in feeling like I’m part of the game, which is why I may be the few people who actually liked Zelda: Skyward Sword’s motion controls. Thankfully we have the option to disable the motion for people who struggle with motion sickness and disabilities, or just feel more comfortable with stick controls. Respect for them because I tried to do stick control in Splatoon 2 because the camera realignment is poo when I’m lying on my back and it didn’t go well for me 😂

So play sessions are shorter when I am handheld. As for sensitivity, I max out stick and gyro sensitivity on both handheld and TV mode.

I've tried, but it's really difficult. I breezed through most of the story mode, and now I'm having trouble on basic levels trying them with motion controls.

Your shots of going down, coming up and shooting 3 times to get a kill, then vanishing again are amazing. I know it'll take work to get there but I'm going to try. I also need to work on the whole...don't panic...thing. That seems like the biggest hurdle to get over. Also thank you for your 'inking base' video. Even as a new player I was agitated at people screaming at me to ink base constantly because I could tell they were wrong. I had a match last night with someone who also plays dualies doing nothing but inking base.

You can change the sensitivity settings, but it’s for the whole stick a not separate if that’s what you are talking about. And you don’t need to use gyro aim just to turn, that’s what the right stick is for.

I feel that the up down sensitivity for gyro is too high even on low sensitivity. Sometimes trying to adjust Abit to left/right resulted in some elevation in the process. (I tried testing it in lobby while looking at my controller. It kinda still move a bit) I also feel that when you start shooting, the camera move up as well? I don't know if using the PS5 controller on switch affect the gyro but I was thinking of getting a switch pro controller. Though The price is kinda way too high for a controller that doesn't have a good dpad.

Splatoon 3 is my first Splatoon, I tried motion controls and I was absolutely abysmal. Then I went to sticks because I'm used to stick controls in general because I play alot of shooters, and I actually started doing really well. But I acknowledge I won't ever be in the upper echelons of skill levels using stick.

Trust me, I’ve played tons of console shooters over the years, but sticks are kind of abysmal on Splatoon. There’s no separate vertical and horizontal sensitivity for stick, so any accidental motions up or down will cause “sprinkler aiming” like they say in the video. I’m with Animal on this one. Edit: oh, and did I forget to mention there’s no aim assist here unlike other shooters?

This is one of the reasons I like using max sensitivity; I can turn ~270 degrees before I hit that point, so it's less likely to happen. As has been mentioned, the right stick is great for making broad, smooth adjustments that are harder to make when your wrists are all tangled up aiming at someone. You may also situationally be able to move your character so that the camera angle becomes more advantageous

Outside of splatoon players (especially if you play halo like me) complain about crossplay because of how accurate mouse players are, and how strong aim assist on controllers can be. Ever since I played Doom 2016 on my Switch, I'm a firm believer that if controllers made gyro aim standard, crossplay can be 100% feasible. And Right now Xbox is the only company that hasn't adopted gyro. I'd use my pro-controller or buy a dual sense if I didn't find the xbox controller the most comfortable for me, and if I didn't play on PC where Xbox controllers work flawlessly. Everything else I've had issues. Playstation 3 had the sixaxis system, wii got motion then the motion plus, and they've been standard since. Even the old steam controller came with gyro and its in the steamdeck. Xbox needs to get with the program and add gyro to the controllers, and add gyro drivers to windows/xbox OS. If we want crossplay to be standardized, then so too must gyro aiming.

I just messed around with motion aiming for the first time today for about 30 minutes before I left for work and messed around a little bit in the pregame Lobby and then attempted a few story missions and my aiming is definitely better with it it's very easy to accurately snap from Target to Target compared to using the analog sticks but when it comes to moving around and aiming at the same time along with jumping and using the right stick to make sharp turns it's definitely something that is going to take many hours until I can actually go into matchmaking or even play the DLC content using motion controls but I really want to get them down because I feel like overall for every Nintendo switch games the controls are not all that great when it comes to gaming and being able to tweak your sensitivity settings perfectly

I’ve always used motion controls even when I was younger playing splatoon 1 because I always thought that that was the only control option and you just couldn’t use sticks so I learned motion because I thought I didn’t have any other option. When splatoon 2 released I saw one of my friends using sticks and was like “woah how did you do that” and he just said it was in the options menu. At that point however I couldn’t imagine playing splatoon without motion controls so I just stuck with it. Now that splatoon 3 is out and people who are new to the series are picking it up and are trying motion for the first time, I don’t understand how they don’t understand because that’s just what im used to. Seeing other KZitemrs start the game and make their inkling have a seizure and them saying it’s worse than sticks baffles me, but again that’s just how I’ve always played splatoon. I only recently heard that motion was better then sticks, I always thought I was using the inferior control scheme because of the bad reputation the phrase “motion controls” gets. If you’re learning motion controls, good job. I’ve been playing splatoon for about 7 years now so I’ve never really thought about motion controls as a thing I had to get better at, but I feel like it’s one of the many things that makes splatoon “splatoon”

Watched a few different tutorials on motion controls, and yours by far worked the best for me! Thanks so much for this vid! In particular, the one exercise of following the targets in the lobby with the reticle helped me feel more steady and consistent in shooting. Also, I did not realize how much my game was suffering from shooting so many "warning shots" until this vid 🤣 By always shooting continuously everywhere to cover turf, and not making sure I was targeting my opponent before shooting, I was basically painting a "splat me!" sign on my back for every enemy within my immediate vacinity. Staying submerged as much as possible, only popping out to either splat an opponent or to take a quick shot or two to cover turf, has helped to significantly lower my death count. 😁

this guides pretty good, ive completed story mode and am level 10 in the online mode, and ive been using sticks this whole time, my issue is the left/right turning on motion because my seating where i play doesnt let me rotate properly, any ideas to make the left/right better besides practicing the aim thing? my left/right on my wrists isnt that good anyways. edit: been doing some of the extra weapon types i missed in the story missions and im breaking my old times, seems this is pretty good, but i gotta use the stick and movement to handle left/right, i only used sticks in the first place cause the motion was something i was not willing to deal with before. aims definitely better though, i did a mission with the bamboozler and i couldnt aim that thing for crap on sticks, and i was splatting enemies alot easier. guess its time for my online team to carry me until i figure this out lol, with sticks i was getting top or 2nd score on the team.

i would recommend another drill for those learning motion controls from a fellow motion learner, although i would recommend one wepon class in particular for this drill, it could help with all of them in my opinion. pick up a charger (i was a dark tet main in 2, and i love the splatana wiper in 3, it works awesomely for the wiper) and get to a large gray target. start charging full shots and using only motion, hit the target. try to use your whole tank. speed up the target change. once youre comfortable with that, try partial charges, same thing. after that, you can diverge from that to fit your wepon and playstyle most, and please take in account distance. for example, i use my sub to snuff enemies out so i will usually need to snap my reticle a small or medium distance on either stationary-ish (shooting down the torpedo) or moving (dodging the torpedo) targets at a short to medium distance, so ill do some more of those same drills with my wepon, on moving and stationary targets, making sure to charge and not charge the wiper, and using the torpedo sometimes on the targets. hope this helps yall, gl

I personally recommend finding the highest sensitivity you can snap back and forth between dummies in front of you and then setting the right stick sensitivity to an amount that lets you snap a 180 onto a target very quickly. For me this is 4.5 and 2.5 respectively even when I’m playing charger.

I promise that struggling with it is worth it. You will play worse at first, for maybe a couple weeks, but when you start getting used to them your aim will improve at an accelerating rate, at the same time that sticks players are starting to hit a plateau and you'll be faster than them for the rest of the time you play the game.
