I think he might mean Mitsunari Ishida. |

I think Wu was included because of Sakon's friendship with Sun Ce from WO. So it's no surprise but what made me wonder was why Tokugawa force wasn't included. After all they were one of the powerful clans too. |

Indead, I forgot about the Tokugawa. I think it would have been better if they switched out Wu with them. Then that would of made the true SW story, more like Sakon's Story

finished Samurai, Wei and Orochi's story last night, all really good unfortunatly it looks like it'll be awhile before I can play the Dream stages, since due to extremely bad luck, a blackout last night caused the circuit on my TV to go dead on me, so I now have no TV

^Good luck in getting it Thursday mate. I haven't done much today except one dream stage. Other than that spending ages in the fusion room and making the skills. I made a load. Plus my first Highflier (or is it Highflyer?) and gave it to Yukimura so I can cancel his charges if need be. And because its amusing to hop around the field cancelling his JC lol. I've also switched the background to SW1 Inahime. |

I think they always planned on featuring Ina with Shu now that SSX was reunited with Liu Bei and they were close friends in the original, she even features in a cutscene and battle beside Xing Cai for Shu so with her there Honda the devoted father being by her side (and also in afformentioned cutscene) it left little manouver left for Tokugowa retainers to convert to the SW side as reward for there rescue....Only Hanzo is really left to fit the bill. I think things worked well with Ieyasu...with so many characters its a case of one battle for everyone if any to accomodate all the characters in the game and he has his own force engaging Masamune Date in the second Shu battle means he played his part and couple that with he kept all his retainers this time round it makes more sense. Speaking of characters in battles was there any more Lui Beis this time round in that they didnt feature in a single battle at any point in the main story....Yoshimoto Imagawa certainly springs to mind as a AWOL warrior. I know the Dream mode is there to cater for this but seems strange they found a niche for all the characters but him (could be more but i will need to investigate this further) |

Tokugawa could have easily been featured in more then one story. They already did so with Nobunaga being in SW and Wei. And Liu Bei was hardly left out in WO, sure maybe physically, but the whole Shu story was about him. What makes me mad, is the continued lack of importance toward Ma Chao <_< barely showcased at the end of Wu. They need to have equal switch of characters importance through sequals. |

Yoshi features in the Wei level 2? battle with Yuan Shao, he accompanies Zhang He to treaty with Yuan Shao. he has some unique lines in that if you use him, which i did throughout the Wei Story. he does not really feature anywhere else, but again he has some unique lines if he's in your party. |

Wait, I thought Nu Wa summoned the "hovering claws of electric death" ( :lol: ) and Fu Xi summoned the Juggernauts? When you defeat each one of the mystics, something disappears. I'm pretty sure the Juggernauts disappeared when I defeated Fu Xi and the "hovering claws of electric death" ( :lol: ) disappeared when I defeated Nu Wa ... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Anyways, at this point I have completed the Orochi and Samurai stories and only have the Battle of Guan Du left for Wei's story (which I should finish today during lunch )I only have one thing to say: CAO REN = WIN :ph43r: Man, I really love playing as this guy now. I played Wei story up until stage 5 with Cao Cao, Nu Wa & Kunoichi, then switched out Kunoichi for Cao Ren for the next 2 stages. I basically solo'd Yamatai and Tong Gate with him, he's that awesome to play as. Oh, and I still hate Juggernauts but I found an easy solution: Kunoichi + R1 :ph43r: |

my solution exactly, her R1 and her extremely lengthy musou make short work of the Juggernauts.i love Cao Ren here too(not that i ever don't like him), i'm going through my second playthrough of all the stories on Hard, and finding it not much more difficult than Normal. i am using my leveled up Kuno, Cao Ren and Katsuiie, this time. |

Her R1 + extremely lengthy musou + 2 speed characters (Cao Cao & Nu Wa) + a 10sec musou powerup made short work of just about everyone in the Battle of Ji Castle (Wei-4) FEAR TEH DEATHCOPTER! :ph43r: |

It was strange them allowing Nobunaga to be playable in more than one storyline as they all have an equal amount of playable characters save one and thats because of Nobunaga :shock: That was my point about Liu Bei - the whole plot was about him but what a weak plot it was....half the great generals of Shu being fooled left right and centre in there pathetic attempts to find there lord where as Sakon led Wu to Sun Jian first time :rolleyes: . Here he plays his part more but Imagawa doesnt what so ever and thats what i mean by "more Liu Beis" Now with Ma Chao he wasnt a massive impact character ill confess but he contributed more than some, he had no more an impact than that of say Taishi Ci or Okuni and he was there for good reason as he had been called for aid by none other than Pang De who he considered a friend after all. Ive no idea why he was seen as neglected in the original as he was seen as none other than a leader of the rebellion against Orochi and in the extra stages he was fighting on his own against overwhelming odds to save the peasants. Overall i think they did a great job of balancing characters neglected in the original to feature in WO2. Big players like Zhao Yun, Mitsunari Ishida, Ranmaru Mori, Nobunaga Oda, Sun Ce and Cao Pi for example feature a fraction of the time they did in the first where as we see so much more of Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Lu Xun and Dian Wei for example. In fact id say the only ones i was dissapointed with was the lack of impact for the newer characters from SW2 XL like Gracia, Kojiro Sasaki and Katsuie Shibata as for those who are unfamiliar with them having not played SW2 XL they dont really get given any real chance to stamp there personalities onto the game |

when you play as Gracia, there's quite a bit of talk about how powerful she is from Liu Bei and Co. and she gets several still talking scenes. also at Wu Zhang Plains, if you approach Da Ji with Gracia, she says something to the effect of ....ok Da Ji, it's time for a showdown so you'll see how strong and mystical i really am... Gracia also gets some talk with Himiko, when you approach her as well. cutsey young girl talk, but clever. |

Oh noooo! The game is yet again delayed in France, and probably in other countries too! :angry: I just saw that when I was trying to buy it online at Micromania, my favourite game shop! It's for 10-16-08 now!! I don't understand why such a long delay between the UK & the other countries, someone reported to me that the game was already translated & multi language

I'm burning out lol. I have 2 stories to go before I have all stories cleared on all difficulties. I'm not even half way completed with the game as a whole. Still need all abilities at 20/15 and still need 70+ 4th weapons and have to lvl 70+ characters to 99 and get their prof to 50. And I have to unlock dream stages and beat them. @_@ |

I'm progressing too slowly to burn out :lol: I finished Wei Story today by clearing Guan Du (Cao Ren mega blaster on Orochi FTW) :ph43r: I started the Wu story and only managed to clear stage one with the time I had available. I'm having fun using the starting 3 and its going to pain me a bit to remove "Bubble Boy" from my team and replace him with Yoshitsune, but oh well. I'm saving Shu story for last since Honda's there and I'm not really that interested in unlocking Wang & his balls or the frickin laser loli :lol: |

My progressive is rather slow at the moment, having to use a temporary new tiny TV. So far ive beaten all 5 stories, and am working on replaying them with each characters set to that story, maxing all characters profiency in this game is gonna be hell :ph43r: |

*high fives both you and foomin* B) You were so looking forward to playing Rockman in WO2. I'm happy to see that he's living up to your expectations. As to progress, Shu's story is my last and I only have a couple of battles left to go. I've been updating my weapon FAQ with improved requirement explanations and official English translations of various stuff. It's easier to give directions when you can understand all the in-battle messages. That should get posted this week. And then it's time to unlock all the rest of the dream mode battles. Weeeee grindfest. |

Motochika I'm training at the moment. His C3-R1 is great and so's his C4 still. A shame about his voice, but this guy sounds younger and is pretty good. I've done Shu's story about 6-8 times now, Orochi's once, Wei a few times, same with Wu, and SW just the once I think. Though I've done random Free Mode stages and many Dream Mode stages. Still have 7 to be unlocked and a few I haven't done as of yet. I've been using my level 15 odd weaklings and have been starting from Chaos, it's a load of fun just as long as you don't have Almighty and abuse the Triple Musou. Yoshihiro is the true man for jumping into wild crowds full of officers. I've been levelling him and Ginchiyo lately, I love both their alts, I'm so glad about Yoshihiro getting his helmet that the lady above chopped off. :lol: Tadakatsu's 3rd is just amazing, is it your fave Mr.Honda? I love Inahime's too! |

Are you kidding? He EXCEEDED my expectations Watching the various videos, I could only get a small sense of how much they really beefed him up in this game. There is no substitute for experiencing it first-hand :ph43r:
Awesome, looking forward to the update. I forget, did you have plans to include recommended setups for each character? I started referring back to my old WO data for the attributes ... @ LDZ: I haven't made it to Shu's story yet I'll post my thoughts on Honda's (and Ina's) alternate when I see it for myself

Mr.Honda, I've been doing the same as WO1 using Brave, Might, Flash and Slay mainly. The others would differ from character to character, so I think you are probably doing okay I expect. Cao Ren is great, I like him, but I haven't used him much. His R1 on his C3 is like firing WO1 Mitsunari waves multiple times. :ph43r: You will love his costume. I'm sure then you'll remember how good he looks. |

OK what's going on here? i have a level 40 Ina and i cannot obtain a 3rd weapon for her? a similar thing happened with Kunoichi, Zhen Ji and Yue Ying, but after level 25 or so i finally got them. i have a level 9 Cao Ren with Roc, and a level 20 Katsuiie with Land and Sky, is it just female characters or what. i thought it might have something to do with who you finish the level with, but i've recently disproved that idea. can anyone help? does a little jig, cause' i love making Rydain happy! |

Thats your Karma being equipped? I've been starting with fresh characters on Chaos and have been jumping from 1st weapon to 4th on the 1st stage. Also note that its possible to get your 4th weapons on any star on hard difficulty when you have high enough Karma. Mines level 9 and I've been rarely getting the weapons below. |
