PSA: Splatoon 3's First Big Run Event Kicks Off Today (North America)

Really excited and interested to see how this plays out. Should be a lot of fun to take Salmon Run to different locations

Omg I was actually going to miss this, I almost forgot.

Also I’m glad splatoon won best multiplayer, in terms of multiplayer, it’s really good in that department!

There had better be bronze, silver, and gold scales as rewards. Otherwise, we should form a union. How do you like them apples, Grizzco!

@Cineologist "Connection terminated. I'm sorry to interrupt you, Cineologist, if you still even remember that name, But I'm afraid you've been misinformed. You are not here to receive a union. nor have you been called here by the individual you assume, although, you have indeed been called."

guys let them have wahoo world

@Cineologist There is. Rewards for gold, silver, bronze, and participation.

Can you do this with local system wireless or just online?

Salmon Run being my go to mode, I’m planning to play more of this then the Splatfest. I just prefer PvE when it comes to multiplayer Splatoon.

@sixrings It's an online event so probably not. You can set up rooms for friends for online however, just press right on the D-Pad and a "with friends" bubble will appear on the mode selection.

@sixrings Splatoon 3 added the ability to save jobs from salmon run. Using the grizzco computer in the salmon run training room, you can save Jobs. I'm thinking, you probably can save a Big Run job, and play that via local wireless with friends? This is just a guess, though. I don't have experience with local wireless Splatoon, and it's the first Big Run. It may be worth a try.

Salmon Run is the only mode I enjoy these days, so I’m super stoked that they are doing special events like this for it. Here’s hoping it works well. 😁

@sixrings Hopefully they’ll let us save Big Run job situations. But they could wipe them with every season change or major game update.

@Cineologist I’m hoping for Cohozunas on every job. Or at the very least a 2x drop rate of scales.

@patbacknitro hello michael afton

What about the Salomid attack in Wahoo World?

Well, I guess I called it from an earlier post. It’s basically Salmon Run on a rotation map. You do get more reward capsules if you play up to 2,400 points. But roughly same amount of scales if you get a Cohozuna (which has the usual appearance rate). There is low, normal, and high tide, though. Low and normal tide spawns are in the center of the map, while high tide is on the edge, like a normal mode team spawn (edit: and sometimes in the middle) Wahoo world’s moving platforms are now stationary at least. But there are plenty of cul-de-sacs to get trapped in if you’re not careful, with limited inkable walls to swim up to escape. So yeah, annoying map is still annoying. I like the dark and foreboding ambient music in the square, and the Salmonid remixed version of Clickbait in the map is sort of unsettling. Big Run would have been great to play on Halloween.

Big Disappointment is more like it. Once the novelty of playing Salmon Run on a regular battle stage wears off, there isn't anything else new and exciting. It is virtually identical to standard Salmon Run. They took Wahoo World, put in a new sky texture, new music and some gushers. That's about it. There was rumors/data mining of possibly a new King Salmonid, but nope, it's still just Cohozuna every time. All the hype and speculation this got was overkill. I'm still having fun mind you(as i always do with splatoon), but Big Run didn't live up to the relentless hype.
