Re-occurring roles...... so the next playable characters (I hope not final pc) isn't Musashi because he never appear in season one.

And Itsuki and Matsunaga are two of most possible characters.
I'm hoping for Hisahide then... if little lolitwit makes it in over him, then Chibi will be puppy-kicking mad. Seriously...

Won't stop me from buying the game, of course, but that'd just be a shame.

^ I'd agree with you but my gf loves the female characters and would love to use Itsuki as they took out her beloved Nou, Matsu, and Kasuga, she will use Oichi, Motonari, and Mitsunari.

I wouldn't hold my breath for more females. Kobayashi already delivered "a lot" of female characters as is...

If Itsucki does get thrown in, here's hoping she gets the Ieyasu treatment and ages, but that's highly unlikely.

Lol I hear ya. I honestly don't care for her and rather see someone so epic and cool. A new character preferably but wouldn't mind seeing Matsunaga finally playable.

Thanks for all your sleuthing on our behalf Jsun :heart:

I'm not too bothered about alt outfits, I can deal with the default ones and I've never played the games anyway but I expect there will at least be a change of colour like someone mentioned earlier.
Hideyoshi and Hanbei may make their cameo? Excellent, I have a few friends who will be very pleased.
Good to hear about the amazing graphics, I'll be getting the PS3 version so I'm pretty hyped. And if the chars feel slow or generic or the same as they did before it won't bother me, I'll still have fun.

Probably the only characters I'm not looking forward to playing are Shimazu and Hondam, simply because they're not my style. Also, I hope Musashi gets in, and the fact that he's appearing in season 2 gives me hope. Please don't chew me out over this, I'm entitled to my opinion, and as far as I'm concerned Hisahide is a great character but he wouldn't work as a playable...

Well, I guess I called it...after so many dissapointments, the alternate outfits donīt hurt anymore.

Hopefully theyīll return in the expansion we all hope for -_-

Wonder when weīll finally get to know what the last character is.

I donīt even care anymore if itīs Musashi, Hisahide or whatever. If they kept him secret so long, itīs gonna be a kickass character.

And about H&H, we allready knew theyīll appear in a lot of cutscenes (at least for the beginning) and that they might even get an NPC scene (hopes so, since thatīd mean they have higher chances of being in an expansion, since they are allready programmed into SB3)

The only question back then was if other characters might get the same treatment, but since Shingen has been hurt before SB3 begins (in the manga) he will probably not be a NPC.

And Iīve just thought about something. You know, back then, their were four crosses, standing for the Oda gang and Mitsuhide. Mitsuhide isnīt dead, so maybe that cross stands for Kennyo? :huh:

He doesnīt have many fans (sadly :( ) and dead reaaaaally early in the anime...so itīs not impossible.

Could the Oda X's be Nobunaga, Nouhime, Ranmaru, and Nagamasa?

Nagamasa got his own one, as well as Yoshimoto.

In total we counted six creative plot enhancements, called "killing off characters" and Yoshimoto, Nagamasa, Nobunaga, Noh and Ranmaru have been confirmed and they allways wanted us to believe Mitsuhide is dead too.

Seeing as they didnīt even try to hide him, I donīt think (or hope, by that) they donīt mean to "really have finished of Mitsuhide".

Itīs the same guy in a bit more grey/white :mellow:

I guess the easiest way for them would be to let Kennyo rest in piece and let him take a break. -_-

My bad, I forgot that the teaser site did it by year. However thinking back now, the site had an X on 1560, an X on 1573, and 4 Xs on 1582.

1560 = Okehazama (Imagawa)
1573 = Odani (Nagamasa)
1582 = Honnoji (Nobunaga, Nouhime, Ranmaru) + Yamazaki (Mitsuhide)

So it makes sense for what we had believed before. I don't think Kennyo would be the 4th X in 1582 since he died in 1592. I think it was just meant to trick people into thinking Mitsuhide was dead before revealing Tenkai.

Well, I'm really not disappointed in the fact that there are no alt outfits. It seems like a feature that would be in the expansion anyway.

I tried out Magoichi and Yukimura today. Magoichi doesn't play so great as you're limited with combo chains. Her BASARA attack is ridiculously cool though. Yukimura felt generic with his charging spear attack which got old really fast.

I watched someone play Kanbei today. He has some pretty awesome dialogue and moves. Kind of sluggish though.
Maybe this person was me? I played Kanbei today at the PS3 kiosk, then played Magoichi on the Wii one, because someone was playing Mitsunari at a very slow pace after I left.

Also, two girls were cheering at me while I was playing, and that felt kinda weird. Then they proceeded to play co-op Yukimiura and Mitsunari at the Ueda Castle stage.

Fun times. Managed to play both of them, plus Ieyasu, Mitsunari and Kotaro. All pretty fun.

Wait, wait...what?

Where are more characters :blink:

I guess itīs getting a bit confused here. Take the statement with a grain of salt. Even Jsun said that we shouldnīt take everything for gold, those people said.

Even if he might be intelligent enough to know that Jsun talked about the japanese version, it doesnīt mean he realized it immedeatly.

As it looks, he really was talking about the english version, as he also talked about that theyīll concentrate on September and October, since those will be the months the game comes out in NA.

So that hints he said that in the context of having the english version in mind and was talking about that the rest of the characters, will be released shortly before the release of SB:SH.

It doesnīt mean we wonīt get 1 more character for the SB3 version, but donīt expect more than 1.

Donīt get yourself confused with it. Itīll only get hopes crushed and youīll end up like me...and nobody wants that, since that seat is allready taken up by me :sly:

Yeah, God forbid we have another Devilsking! I think the thread would (or should?) implode if such a thing happened...

Anyway, thanks to Jsun and Tenguman for their hard work (bet you guys had a blast though ;) ) these days!

41 days, people. We're almost at the 1 month mark....

When I asked about Oda Nobunaga, Hanbei, and Toyotomi Hideyoshi he pretty much said they're confirmed, but probably won't be playable. Any characters that were presented in the videos will be in the game.
My sincere gratitude for keeping us updated and informed, Jsun.
Like the "characterS" statement, this paragraph has me intrigued. We know H&H appear at some point in cutscenes (nothing on N&N though) - is that what they take as a confirmed appearance? Or rather, they will be NPCs? I can see them appearing in Story Mode 1st stages or "flashback stages".
It's gonna hurt to face the Conqueror King and not be able to play as him, but would be a LOT better than full blown exclusion.

Well, no point getting riled up. The team already STATED they were excluded...

Well i'm not too dissapointed about no alt outfits, becuase i like most of the outfits chracters already have and probably wouldn't have used alts alot.

But the chracters atleast appearing(i assume in flashbacks) is good becuase to just ignore them would have been stupid
So is it definite that there are more characters(hopes not itsuki or musashi)?

So I managed to snatch a glance of Famitsu for the characters' unique traits:

Ieyasu: You can keep the button pressed to charge his s-string/skills, obviously making them more powerful.

Mitsunari: Pressing the (square?) button with the right timing at the end of his skills makes him do a follow-up strike in ANY direction (even upwards), with his high-speed movement called Setsuna.

Masamune: The offensive 6-swords stance gives him more attack power and changes his skills too.

Yukimura: Pressing the (square?) button with the right timing at the end of his skills has him perform a forward lunge with his spear. The weak version of Mitsunari's Setsuna?

Maggie: Her skills make her change the weapon used in the s-string. But you all already knew it.

Tsuru: She has many skills that let her control the distance between her and the enemies. Her attacks deal more damage at a specific distance. (nice, isn't it?)

Kanbei: His skills leave him open for a certain time after ending, but pressing the dodge button with the right timing negates this opening. (pretty damn good! Gotta learn timing this time...)

Yoshitsugu: Keeping the (square? skill?) button pressed lets him apply a mark to the enemies, and his skills thus acquire homing properties.


So, we had 8 characters this time. Supposing that the next update will give us the rest (at last things we don't know), we'll still have 2-3 weeks before the game comes out.........*prays for at least Hisahide*

When I asked the Capcom rep about the characters question I said, "Since you guys already have 16 playable characters now, do you you think there will be any more that will be announced?"

We were talking about the Japanese version and he seemed to know a lot of information the other rep didn't like the limited edition game and all.

@tengumaru, don't think it was you unless you're a girl and wore black jeans and a black shirt that day.

It's nice that timing actually matters now in Basara: while I love mashing buttons, I also loved playing as Jecht in Dissidia, and I'm totally okay with trying something similar again.

Don't mash buttons, kids, you'll be sucked!

...eh, I thought it's becoming quite more positive that the last playable character might turn out to be Musashi? Especially after the anime character clue and all... :meantongue:

And LOL @SingerOfW's quote. That conference must be really extreeemely memorable indeed. wwww

But why, we've just had a good positivity that more characters will be joining the current cast. If he said there would be more, I'm kinda expecting more, not worrying about if he wasn't being honest/got facts wrong :blink: . I'm sorry, but I'm gonna take this with optimism, there's no reason at all to be down about it, this topic has had for too much of that already.

I won't take your seat from you :sly: . I'm often the disappointed one on other topics :lol: .

From Jsun's latest post, I guess it's clear that we're getting more than one character...

As long as that producer isn't a bigger troll than Koba.

Guess the anime will shed some light on things....

Itsuki would be pretty stupid, especially with Tsuru around, and Kennyo's dead...but then again Hisahide is too...

So supposing that we'll see Musashi and Kojiro....who else could appear? Only totally new people...?

I wonder if there are any other UNPCS.

Oh god, I hope not, that would just shatter everybody I think :mellow: .

I predict: Hisahide, Itsuki, Musashi and Kojiro. But if just one then Hisahide, if two Hisahide and Musashi with Kojiro as a possible NPC. Hope I'm not jumping too far ahead :unsure: ?

I trust Jsun, but I don't trust the Capcom rep. I have to refuse to believe we are getting more than one character, because it is simply too good to be true. I think there's one more slot, and it's probably Hisahide.

I want to believe it so bad, but I'd rather be pleasantly surprised than disappointed

This times a million.

Especially with just over a month left (wahooo~) and not much longer untill we see the final roster, I don't see a point with getting our hopes too high, I'm definitely thinking its more likely than before, that we'll be seeing more than one last character, but I'm still betting were only gonna get one more. Like robotzombie said, I rather be pleasantly surprised than disapointed.

One more character or four more, I'm still going to get this game, and enjoy it regardless.

Oh, and thanks for the info Jsun and NDY~
Those special aspects of the characters sound a lot more interesting this time around, last time they were mentioned they soudnedpretty generic.
