Americas next top model cycle 6 wiki năm 2024

Splatoon 3 expands the Splatoon series on many different fronts, with an extensive story mode, new Salmon Run challenges and rewards, a wider range of customisation with more options (including the additions of Splashtags and the locker room), and the new mode Tableturf Battle. Additionally, Splatoon 3 streamlines many aspects of the previous games. The Battle Lobby is reworked into a greatly expanded practice area accessible between matches, Splatfests are overhauled with three teams rather than two and a new Tricolor Turf War mode, and the UI has been made more responsive and informative. Additionally, Splatoon 3 is the first game in the series to be localized into Korean and Chinese.

Development

In an interview with the weekly Famitsu magazine from around July 2019, Splatoon series producer Hisashi Nogami said that after completing Splatoon 2, the team focused on the Octo Expansion DLC as well as updates, and would not think about the future until completing version 5.0.0 of the game. This means that Splatoon 3 development had not started as of July 2019 and presumably started after the release of Version 5.0.0 on 31 July 2019. This is quite different compared to the timing of the development of Splatoon 2, which started immediately after Splatoon was released.

On 17 February 2021, Splatoon 3 was announced in a Nintendo Direct.

On 23 September 2021, more information was revealed about Splatoon 3 in a Nintendo Direct, including new special weapons, stages, and music, as well as the reveal of the single-player mode Return of the Mammalians.

On 1 January 2022, the @SplatoonJP Twitter account posted a Tweet for the arrival of 2022. The post included a video with an Inkling performing a victory pose along with a jingle, while 2022 is written in ink. This revealed the return of the brush main weapon class, marking the final returning weapon class revealed.

On 27 January 2022, Volume 16 of the Splatoon manga was released with a teaser of the new Agent 3 arriving in Splatsville.

In a Nintendo Direct on 9 February 2022, Salmon Run Next Wave, a successor to Salmon Run from Splatoon 2, was revealed to be a mode in Splatoon 3, introducing new Boss Salmonids, Egg Throwing, and the King Salmonid. It was also confirmed that the game will be released in the summer of 2022.

On 22 April 2022, a fourth trailer for Splatoon 3 was released, showing gameplay of a Turf War and revealing the release date to be 9 September 2022. It was also revealed that the game will support cloud saves (for offline play data) and that there will not be separate regional versions, meaning that all language options will be available to every player.

On 10 August 2022, an approximately thirty-minute long Nintendo Direct focused entirely on Splatoon 3, titled the Splatoon 3 Direct, was aired, revealing many new details about various aspects of the game, such as its modes, characters, stages, weapons, etc. A free demo of the game called the Splatoon 3 Splatfest World Premiere was also revealed.

On 25 August 2022, Nintendo Treehouse showed off some gameplay of the game's story mode, such as the reveal of the first level of Future Utopia Island, Get to Know Alterna, Your Only Choice.

On 27 August 2022, the Splatoon 3 Splatfest World Premiere was started at different time zones with 26 weapons to use and a variety of different gear to wear. A single Splatfest took place in the demo, the theme of which was Rock vs. Paper vs. Scissors. After the Splatfest's results were announced, the demo ended.

On 9 September 2022, Splatoon 3 was released.

Story

The game takes place 5 years after the events of Splatoon 2 in the Splatlands, a sun-scorched desert inhabited by battle-hardened Inklings and Octolings, and Splatsville, a city of chaos that developed rapidly since the last Splatfest of Splatoon 2, Chaos vs. Order. The game's design is themed around chaos due to the outcome of the Splatfest.

The Splatoon 3 single-player story mode is called "Return of the Mammalians". Octarians return as the primary enemies, but the majority of them now appear mutated with brown fur and purple eyes. The story starts in the Crater where the player's character, an Inkling or Octoling accompanied by their companion Smallfry, is recruited by Craig Cuttlefish into the New Squidbeak Splatoon as the new Agent 3. The majority of the mode takes place in a location beneath the Crater called Alterna, a large, snowy area littered with incomplete structures and hazardous Fuzzy Ooze with a rocket at its center. Callie, Marie, and the Captain (the former Agent 3 from the previous games who is now the captain of the group following Cuttlefish's retirement) appear in this area to aid the player in their goal of exploring Alterna and finding Cuttlefish, who went missing shortly after recruiting the player.

Gameplay

Like its predecessors, Splatoon 3 is a third-person shooter game focused on online multiplayer ink battles, in which eight players are divided into two teams of four. Players have two main forms and may switch between the two at will: their humanoid form, in which they can use weapons to spread ink and splat opponents, and their swim form - with a squid or octopus appearance, which, if they enter their team's ink while in the form, allows them to swim through ink at greater speeds, including up walls, recharge their ink tank faster, and hide from opponents.

Players have access to new movement techniques to dodge attacks and expand the possibilities of attacks. A allows them to leap and twirl out of their ink and a allows them to quickly swim up ink-covered walls and jump out at the top, and both have a short phase of invincibility. Additionally, medals are now awarded at the end of multiplayer matches for various accomplishments, such as inking the most and getting the most splats.

In the Splatlands, players in online battles enter the battlefield with a spawner. It floats above the stage behind each base and allows players to aim at their desired deployment location within that team's spawn area. After choosing where to deploy, the spawner launches players to that location in squid or octopus form similar to a Super Jump. If a player is splatted, they will respawn in the spawner and will launch in the same way a battle starts.

In story mode, Smallfry, nicknamed "little buddy", accompanies the player. It can be thrown to attack Octarians, interact with contraptions to solve various puzzles, and remove hazardous Fuzzy Ooze.

Player customization

The genders of the Inklings and Octolings are no longer explicitly stated. Instead, the player "selects a style". Additionally, Octolings can now be selected from the start rather than having to be unlocked from paid DLC first.

New Player Settings have been added:

• Two new skin tones in addition to the seven returning, for a total of nine.
• Seven new eye colors, including six heterochromatic eyes that form a gradient from one color to another, in addition to 14 returning colors, for a total of 21. Some of these new eye color options feature colored pupils.
• New hairstyles and legwear.
  • Hairstyles and legwear are no longer split between genders, meaning either style can access any hairstyle or legwear option. Hairstyles are still split between species.
  • Four new Inkling hairstyles and four new Octoling hairstyles are available, many of which are asymmetrical. All 16 hairstyles from Splatoon 2 return, for a total of 24 options.
  • Four new legwear options have been added in addition to the eight returning, for a total of 12.
• The player can now also customize their character's eyebrow shapes. There are new eyebrow options in addition to four eyebrow shapes from previous games (that previously matched the character's species and gender). In addition to their classic eyebrows, they can have the same eyebrows but with a slit, rounded eyebrows (for Inkling girls), triangular eyebrows (for Inkling boys), teardrop-shaped eyebrows (for Octolings), thin eyebrows (for Inklings), and curved eyebrows (for Octolings).
• The player now has a "little buddy", a Smallfry that plays a role in the single-player mode. Their hairstyle can be customized, with a total of seven different options.
• Each player now has their own customizable Splashtag, displaying the player's username and ID number alongside customizable titles, badges, and a background. These are displayed in certain situations, such as at the start and end of battles and when viewing players in the square. In the player's first battle, they will use a default Splashtag with the default username of "Player"; after their first battle is complete, they unlock username and Splashtag customization. More titles, badges, and backgrounds can be obtained in various ways.
  • Usernames can now be changed directly in the game independently of the player's Nintendo Switch username. Their username after their first battle will default to their Switch username but is otherwise no longer determined by it.
• Players can now customize the emotes that they perform upon winning battles. Unlike in the previous games, there are no longer animations for when players lose; instead, only the winning team of the battle is shown regardless of whether that was the player's team, at which point all players on that team are seen performing their selected emotes.
• Players can now choose which of four Splatfest regions to take part in (Americas/Oceania, Europe, Japan, SE Asia/Hong Kong) about once every 2 months. This also defines which region's Plaza art and Top 100 they will see.
  • Choosing Japan will prompt a warning that not all Japan-region Splatfests have support in other languages.
• Players can now choose which of two X Battle divisions to take part in (Tentatek for mostly Western players, Takoroka for mostly Eastern players) once per season.

Modes

Turf War

There are no changes to the rules of Turf War in Splatoon 3 besides the addition of spawners. As in previous games, Turf War is the only Regular Battle mode.

Tricolor Turf War

First introduced in the Splatfest World Premiere, Tricolor Turf War is a new mode in Splatoon 3. This mode is only available in the second half of a Splatfest and is an altered version of the Turf War mode in which the three Splatfest teams battle in one Turf War. The Splatfest team that was in the lead at the Halftime Report of the Splatfest has four players in the match and start in the middle of the stage, while the other two teams have two players each and start at opposite ends of the stage. In the middle of the stage, there is a device called the Ultra Signal. If a member of one of the two losing Splatfest teams captures the Ultra Signal by holding it for long enough, a Sprinkler of Doom will appear and constantly rain that team's color for the rest of the match, and it cannot be destroyed. The person trying to capture the Ultra Signal is immobile while capturing it, so they can be splatted in the process, causing them to lose it.

Anarchy Battle

Anarchy Battle is a new mode that replaces Ranked Battles from previous games. It features all four modes from Ranked Battles that previously appeared (namely Splat Zones, Tower Control, Rainmaker, and Clam Blitz) on rotation and the returning rank system. There are two types of Anarchy Battles, Series and Open; Series Anarchy Battles do not allow for friends to join each other and use a new best out of five rulesets by which losing three battles results in a loss, while winning five battles results in a victory. Open Anarchy Battles are standalone battles in which players have the option to either join their friends or play solo.

Challenge

Challenge is a new mode that replaces League Battle from Splatoon 2, only available in limited rotations. Challenge battles usually have special conditions added. Players can compete either solo or in a team to gain Challenge Power. Challenge was first added in Sizzle Season 2023.

X Battle

X Battle replaces Splatoon 2's X Rank from Ranked Battles, featuring the same four ranked modes but on a separate rotation, available only to players who have achieved a rank of S+0 or above in Anarchy Battles during the current season. X Battle was added to the game on 1 December 2022 as part of the Chill Season 2022 update.

The Shoal

The Shoal allows Private Battles and Salmon Run to be played locally with other nearby players. Like in the Battle Lobby, the player can now move around inside the building, and it houses its own test range that can be used while waiting for battles or shifts to start.

Tableturf Battle

Tableturf Battle is an adaptation of Turf War styled after a card game and involves various cards depicting characters and weapons that fill areas like in a Turf War. As of Drizzle Season 2023, there are over 200 different cards that players can use to build a deck; they correspond to various shapes that can be used to cover turf and they can be charged up to cover additional turf, with the winner of the game being whoever covers the most squares of turf. The mode takes place in the Tableturf Battle Dojo and can be played against various CPU-controlled enemies, with online play against other players added at the beginning of Fresh Season 2023.

Salmon Run Next Wave

Salmon Run Next Wave is a horde mode that is the successor to Salmon Run from Splatoon 2, introducing new Boss Salmonids, stages, and mechanics, such as Egg Throws, King Salmonids, and Big Runs. The mode can now be played at any time, rather than being available on a set schedule. It is accessible from a Grizzco Industries building in Splatsville, which, like the Battle Lobby, can now be freely moved around in and houses its own test range that can be used while waiting for shifts to start.

Stages

Multiplayer

Multiplayer stages in Splatoon 3

Salmon Run

• Sockeye Station - A new stage in the Salmon Run Next Wave mode, with a similar aesthetic to previous Salmon Run stages.
• Gone Fission Hydroplant - A new stage, shown in the Splatoon 3 Direct. It is next to a large hydroplant.
• Spawning Grounds - The basic Salmon Run stage from Splatoon 2 returns with minimal changes.
• Marooner's Bay - Another Salmon Run stage from Splatoon 2 returns with minimal changes.
• Jammin' Salmon Junction - A new stage, shown in the Splatoon 3 Sizzle Season 2023 promotional video. It is on a collapsed multilane highway.
• Salmonid Smokeyard - Another Salmon Run stage from Splatoon 2 returns with minimal changes.

Weapons

Main weapons

• The Stringer class was added, of which there are two; the Tri-Stringer, and the REEF-LUX 450. Once charged, it fires three strings of ink simultaneously. Stringers also have two stages of charge, as seen in the Nintendo Switch OLED trailer.
• A new Splatana class was released, consisting of the Splatana Wiper and the Splatana Stamper. Splatanas fire slashes of ink when used and can perform a charged slash to deal high damage to a faraway opponent or instantly splat an Inkling or Octoling within melee range.
• All base main weapons from previous games return, except for the Dual Squelcher. However, no second variants were available at launch.
• The Painbrush introduced in Sizzle Season 2023, is the first new entry in the brush class since the original roster from Splatoon.

Sub weapons

• All sub weapons in Splatoon 2 return in Splatoon 3. They have retained most of their attributes from previous games.
• A new sub weapon named the Angle Shooter was added. It is thrown in a straight line, bouncing off any surface and leaving behind a trail. Directly hitting enemies with the projectile deals damage, and both the projectile and its trail mark enemies on contact, allowing them to be seen through opaque obstacles, similar to the Point Sensor.
  • It is part of the Big Swig Roller Express, Bloblobber Deco, Jet Squelcher, Rapid Blaster Pro Deco, Splattershot Pro, and Slosher Deco's sets.

Music

Most of the music heard during multiplayer battles is made by C-Side, a band that performs music in a rock-esque style. They made a remix of Splattack! and Now or Never!, as well as Paintscraper, Headhammer, Triple Dip, Clickbait, Rinse/Repeat, and Learning Curve.

There are several other bands who make music that plays during multiplayer battles. Two of them were released with the game: Front Roe, with the songs Sandy Side Up and Sea Me Now, and Damp Socks feat. Off the Hook, with the songs Tentacle to the Metal and Candy-Coated Rocks. Yoko & the Gold Bazookas was introduced in Version 4.0.0 with the songs Three-Horn Circus, Ska-BLAM, and Rockagilly Blues. H2Whoa was introduced in Version 5.0.0 with the songs Ripstop & Go and Aquasonic. Chirpy Chips was reintroduced in Version 6.0.0 with the songs Slopping Spree and No Quarters.

ω-3 retains all of their songs from Splatoon 2. They also released Frothy Waters and Toxic Anoxic for Salmon Run Next Wave, and during Big Runs, their song Bait & Click can be heard.

The idol band of Splatoon 3 is called Deep Cut, and, unlike the previous idol groups, Deep Cut's music takes inspiration from many traditional cultures. Most of Deep Cut's music is heard during Splatfests, such as Anarchy Rainbow, Till Depth Do Us Part, Fins in the Air, Big Betrayal, their cover of Now or Never!, Ego Overboard, Still Swimmin', and Daybreaker Anthem. However, some of their music is also heard during Return of the Mammalians, specifically Deep Cut's Theme, Surprise and Shine, Hide and Sleek, Smeared Canvas, and Calamari Inkantation 3MIX.

In the , multiplayer battle songs from all games sometimes play, as well as Sinkopated, Drip Feed, Heliocentri City, Fuzzy Dazzler, Blop Bop, Gilded Cage, Dressed to Krill, Slick Moves, Gillty, Pour It On, Pop 'n' Schlock, Clashing Colors, and Dorsal Slicer. In Version 3.0.0, a Jukebox was added that allows the player to request almost any song in the game (as well as a select few from previous games) for

Post-launch updates

Main article: List of post-release content in Splatoon 3

Much like the previous Splatoon games, several free post-launch updates are being released for Splatoon 3. Such updates are liable to prevent battle replays from working due to balance adjustments. The game's season changes roughly every three months, with additional weapons, stages, a new catalog, as well as other content being added at the start of every season.

Significance of the number 3

As a reference to the game being the third in the series, the number three is a recurring theme in the game, similarly to eight being a theme in the Octo Expansion. For example:

What happened to Jade from ANTM Cycle 6?

The same Popsugar article also notes that Jade launched her own production company, called Biracial Butterfly Productions, which is an agency looking to represent biracial models. It seems that Jade has come a long way from being one of the most notorious villains in ANTM history, and perhaps all of reality television.

What year was ANTM Cycle 6?

The sixth cycle of America's Next Top Model premiered on March 8, 2006, which would be the last cycle to air on UPN before merging with The WB to create The CW. The catchphrase for this cycle was "Fairy Tales Come True." This cycle was filmed from October through November 2005.
