Why no Ark Polaris?!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 фев 2024
- Nintendo has announced that Bonerattle Area will be the LAST map we get for Salmon Run in Splatoon 3. On one hand, the map looks very cool, on the other, Ark Polaris was pretty cool too (we don't talk about the Outpost, that one is a lost cause). Well in this video I present a theory on exactly why I think Ark Polaris didn't make the cut.

![32 NEW Side Order FACTS from the DIRECTORS' INTERVIEW!! [Splatoon] #splatoon3](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/w5Asq_o0pxU/mqdefault.jpg)
So this concerns me for other reasons. The fact that this is the final Salmon Run map means that Splatoon 3 is reaching the end of its update lifespan. The odds of getting third kits are not good now. With how bad the current kits we’re getting are… not ideal.
yeah summer will be the last offically planed season
And I think this may be the last Splatoon series since they brought splatoon and splatoon2 to splatoon 3
@@CaptainFun7857no chance it’s either splatoon four or they reboot it but it makes too much money for them to not keep doing it
The strangely limited amount of kits they were adding each update makes perfect sense now. They spaced them out so that they would release all second kits right when the game concluded its update cycle
@@Thatdankkoala I hope so…
I'd assume they were planning on adding it, but just couldn't figure out how to adjust the map for the King Salmonids without making any major changes. Same thing applies to Lost Outpost.
Feel like tornado probably played a part in it as well. I can kinda see it working on both stages, but both would need some reworks, which would probably take away from their identities.
Just make kings only happen on low tide.
there's so much that would have to be adjusted that they just might as well have made a new map, which is exactly what they did.
@@elnino3740Yeah, that's what I've been thinking. Would feel a bit hacky, though.
As much as I wanted Ark Polaris back, everything you said is legitimately correct. It was one of the smallest salmon maps and I couldn’t imagine how chaotic it would get with the harder difficulty, new bosses, kings.. honestly it’d be as big of a nightmare as S3 Marooners Bay. And the lord part, wouldn’t make much sense.
It’s a shame Grind Rails aren’t returning on Bonerattle. I would’ve really liked to see em there. Oh well.
Its weird they left out Ark Polaris as a Salmon Run map cause 3's Story Mode legitimately adds more lore to it
Given the Alterna lore, I’m surprised Ark Polaris didn’t come back. Also, peak Dr. Stone reference.
Honnestly? A story mode where you play as a Grizzco Employee who had their squad get stranded in Salmoid territory would be sick. The main mission could be to rescue the other 3 members of your squad and repairing the old SR boat from S2.
Back in Splatoon 2 there was that S. O. S image with golden eggs. After the Big Runs, I assume Salmonid population is in danger. I can see a story mode about that
Bonerattle arena looks like it’s the place where the salmonids meet up and get ready for battle. It looks like they’re getting prepared to overthrow the inklings/octolings since they’ve invaded the cities in big run multiple times. I hope Splatoon 4 really takes an apocalyptic approach where the cities are preparing for battle while still being colorful and cheerful.
After watching this it's clear why Ark Polaris is not coming back...
They don't want people to know Salmonids speak English.
“No ones bothered to look” Inkspedition Host be crying in a corner right now
Salmon is a great fish 👍
It is very tasty
its me favorite fish🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🎣
I love the great salmon fish 🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟
salmon are great fish 🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟
I agree. I think Ruins of Ark Polaris isn’t coming back because of the lore. Lore wise Grizz used pieces of it to build a new rocket. It was also already a very small map. With the increased difficulty and king Salmonids, it’d feel really cramped. Even the Ink Rails wouldn’t help much.
to be honest if bonerattle arena's hinting at the story for splatoon 4 it seems at the very least way less subtle about it and i think that's kinda nice if there turns out to be some validity in the statement. but! only time will tell
I miss Ark Polaris, but Jammin Junction feels like a worthy stand-in to me, I love it so much
The next story will definitely be about the Salmonid’s going extinct
Bonerattle looks so good!! But yeah I’m so surprised there’s no ark. I thought it was going to be some lore drop at the end
While I miss the Ruins of Ark Polaris, the lore makes up for the loss
It's definitely the best looking salmon map in Splat2 but it came in so late that I forgot what it looked like until now
They could've resigned the levels for king salmonids, or instead just replace the kind salmonid rounds with a bonus 4th wave or whatever
For ark Polaris and outpost that is..
I am hyped up for the next stage for hint of next game. Mechanically I see why now we can’t have the stage…
The new stage really so rocking and might new info. I will keeping an eye out.
For Mr. Grizz,
The story begins but who knew happened.
Forgotten danger that lies within
Aboard the ARK a genius at heart
The creature that learned how to unlock the mysteries of life
Future Lillie gotta give Past Lillie alot credit, I was almost right on the details but I was wrong about who.
Also it was alot fun writing it and styling it.
What did you just say about Space Colony Ark Polaris?
Your comment about the algorithm is on point
About time I got recommended another Vasko video.
Remember 2020's salmon run weird holiday image
It's Joe's fault
KEKW
They could easily just make it so king almonds would automatically make it low tide on ark polaris and lost outpost to deal with any issues with the map being too small.
As much as I’m sad ark Polaris didn’t come back, I’m okay with getting these newer completely original stages where we seem to keep going deeper and deeper into salmonid territories. Also at the peak of grizz’s plans under alterna I assume in-lore he just… doesn’t need to defend the Polaris from salmonids anymore. I feel like bone rattle arena could be just as interesting because now we are in the heart of the salmonids, battling in their own arenas now and no longer just on the outskirts of their home. We are invading them just as far as they invade us on big runs and I think that could tie very deeply into whatever they have planned to cap this game off
Tbh I was also hoping they’d put that map in
3:20 Something about Salmonoids speaking English is deeply disturbing
We know the Alternians did, although a future version of it (supposed reformed writing system), but the Salmonoids write in current day English.
Could this be evidence of Salmonids being the true descendants of humanity? Or just a case of cultural appropriation?
1:40 hold up is that pearl drone?!
splatoon lore goes crazy
Im really hoping the Splatoon devs are like "haha we got you this isn't the final update" when that time comes because as of right now the updates have been to little in content and few updates in general
I like the theory but I really don't think the lore being outdated should justify it not being in the game. I think all the map in s2 sr should come back that's just me
final salmon run map, means one final salmon king, it'll be another 4 bosses trend like in splatoon 1 2 3 and DLC.
we might as well call it the four maddening salmonid kings as they are much more dangerous than the hugefry. if there is a salmonid king like a small salmon riding on a cluster or giant robot of pots and pans that'll be awesome otherwise they kinda missed the potential like they always do.
They shouldn’t’ve kept this games lifespan so short. There’s just not enough stuff in this game. And even Less good stuff.
this game been cooked for the past like 5 months
NO ARK POLARIS?!
I feel the opposite way about it, ark polaris being important to splatoon 3's main story seems like more reason to bring it back. There's no reason for them to not do more with mr grizz, when we now have two dlc's revolving around off the hook and the first two main stories revolving around octavio.
They should have added it tbh
Imo, joe isn't that great on Marooner's Bay either👀😵💫
No the wire thing about it is that data miners found the id number for it in the games files. It’s just wired for the devs to just leve it there
Maybe my theory of the „Keizer Salmonid“ (Yes I watched Godzilla Final Wars) will come true. I imagined a Godzilla-Like Salmonid with immense power coming ashore and killing all other Salmonids in the area, including the Kings and that it would be massive.
It would be cool if Hizunamasu would make an appearence
@@hyp0thermic_tensi0n yes it would
yeah
need more lore need more LOREEEEEEEEEEEE
Salmonid smokeyard is in the game. There’s no justification for no ark Polaris.
YOUR NAME IS JERRY!!!!!
hmm... i like the theory you have for this, Vasko. and it does make quite a lot of sense. each map is a story and has lore towards the world. arc polaris housing Mr Gris and him learning from the world around him is interesting as it does lead up to his final fight with us in 3. it's a very cool connection which i like about the games. if the last map for 3 does tie into splatoon 4, if it does happen.. perhaps the main enemies will become the salmonids and we have the power to play as either an octoling or inkling, after having both made a treaty to not have a war and just splat for fun
I have a theory that there will be 7 king salmonids, and that they will all be based on the original boss salmonid from splatoon 2, also all the king salmonids hairs will be the different colors of the rainbow.
If only there were 4 more and the pink fish.
7 king salmonids. 7 deadly sins?
That theory could work but what sin would Horrorboros represent.
@@TheVocaloid00Gundam
If the Salmonids do know english, or any other human language for that matter, I'd imagine that future games would explore it a bit further.
Dr Stone = goated anime
It’s laziness and that’s pretty much it. If they really wanted to add it and satisfy all the fans who wanted it they could’ve. It’s inexcusable they ported worse stages like Spawning Grounds, Marooner’s Bay and Salmonid Smokeyard instead of the fan favourite stages (and a stage that literally directly relates to the story mode?!) Salmon Run is my favourite mode in Splatoon but they have not done enough to make it distinct from Splatoon 2.
Well, less is more I guess. As in they can take back Marooner's Bay and Smokeyard tbh....The new stages are just so much more superior for Next Wave.
Spawning Grounds, whatever I guess, we can keep it just for being the first map ever....
Man and I still don't have the online service I can't even play this
THEY DO IN FACT SPEAK ENGLISH (yeah definitely ENGLISH)
3:31 holy shit they’re British.
I thought they said splatoon 4 is gonna have it's on special story I might be wrong tho
I love this map, you can stall the glowflies, goldie, and salmonids, just staying in there .
1:38 That’s a friggin Pearl Drone!!!
It's Um'ami Ruins's form of plaza graffiti, meaning a player drew that 😅. Most stages have plaza art graffitied in certain spots, in Um'ami it takes the shape of rock carvings instead!
@@shame2189 oh I didn’t know that. Thats a disappointment.
Splatton????? Where’s the Pokémon?
He is a pokemon and splatoon youtuber hes been just verry on the paldean curse arc cuz its quite succsesfull
You’re telling me that you didn’t know he does Splatoon content the past 2 months??
Cope
For the ark Polaris, it’s sounds like the salmonids just destroyed it and rebuilt it for shaping it like an arena (this final stage), the low tide area is practically similar to the ark Polaris one. However I’m sure the developers changed this map for making it less vertical, because of the new stuff they added with the new game (during the tornado wave, it will be a pain to bring all eggs to the basket in time if it’s on ark Polaris)
Im glad ark polaris isn't in the game, always hated playing on that map. Good theme though.
I personally believe Ark Polaris isn't returning because we already have 6 maps, soon to be 7. Once a stage has been in a rotation, it won't appear again for nearly a week and a half.
As much as I liked Ark Polaris, I hated the high tide layout, because it’s basically a small square where many aoe boss salmonids can easily wipe out the entire crew in a blink of an eye. The ride rails are ok, but you couldn’t use a stingray on them.
do the salmonids REALLY know English tho…? That doesn’t make sense…
It’s likely they have a very basic understanding or are smart enough to know that the signs meant warning bear even if they can’t fully read
Meowwww
brain damage
RUclips: no you don't
Cos me no like arc polaris
Imma throw my hat in and say that ark did not return not because of lore, but because it was more than just kings that would not work. The new bosses are also incapable with the stage because of how vertical it is. Lids were definitely the main culprit because they can lag the entire game plus they barely even function on maps like bay. Ark and lost outpost happen to have actual overheads which lids avoid like the plague on bay. Theres also the unbridled truth that ARK POLARIS WAS A BAD MAP. Sure people think its fun but trying to consistently get quota was very hard in freelance because people kept stalling amd killing bosses at the bottom. No egg throw will bot help because you are throwing up towards the basket which is the same reason why bay is so hard. You have high traffic areas and trying to throw eggs up. I know people are gonna say the rails helped but the rails are so slow that in high hazards they are the main reason we lose because the lag gets that bad. If you want me to go into greater detail i can make a bigger list
Bone rattle arena are better than ruins of ark polaris
You have to be joking when you suggested that Salmonids speak English
IT IS I! NUMBER 100 COMMENTS!!! NYEH HEH HEH HEH HEH!!!!!!
People who didn’t notice ✋
Ngl, ark polaris mid
