ok now people may disagree with what i'm about to say but personally i'd rather Xiahou Ba be revealed in the last batch because since he was leaked and the suprise was sapped from it, so either reveal him last or have another new character revealed along side him so it gives people the suprise that was lost when Xiahou Ba was leaked.

as for my thoughts on the next character reveals i've been sticking with my thoughts on this and think Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Xu Huang and Sun Quan will be revealed along with a new character for either Wei or Wu maybe Zhu Ling if Wei or Sun Shao if Wu and Dong Zhuo in Others
actually, i'm half and half on this one. part of me agrees with you, seeing as he's already been leaked, so we should save him for one of the last and have the next few scans reveal other characters, probably from Shu or the Others forces. and yet, I partially think that they should just officially reveal him and get it over with already.

basically, it doesn't really matter all that much to me, concerning xiahou ba; we already know what he looks like, so whenever koei and famitsu decide to officially reveal him doesn't really bother me. not sure about everyone else.

So, we know there'll be a crossbow weapon. Who of the remaining unrevealed characters could it belong to? Sorry if there was already a discussion on this, I missed a bit.
I highly think it will be Xiahou Ba's weapon.
I bet they put in Zhu Ran and have it as his... it's perfect for him settin btches on fiaa left and right

Maybe they'll give the crossbow to none other than Zhuge Liang.
It's said that he actually invented the repeating crossbow and the game could reflect that by having it as his weapon

I'm surprised sun jian and liu bei haven't been put through famitsu yet, seeing as cao cao has been, i am curious as to gan nin's design, i liked his old sortof-goofy pirate personality from the earlier games (and his sword, the knives from dw6 were good, but that dw5 and before musou... :heart: that musou was so fun.).

he really gets the shit-end of the stick in other three kingdoms stuff like ikkitousen (i hate him in that)

they might be saving sun quan and cao pi to reveal with liu chan (if he's in) all three emperor's sons. maybe. who knows. We might get all the wierdos in the next reveal, xu zhu, zhang he, dong zhou, pang tong, and the like.

I honesty don't see him getting anything other than the fan. It's far too iconic to be replaced, as he's seen with it in most representations not just KOEI games.

Maybe Sun Quan might get the crossbow. As I'm sure all those who have played DW3 Yi Ling should know how much he loves them. :whistle:

Zhuge Liang always went to battle in a carriage, sat at the camp, and used a white feather fan. Not in battle, of course, but still, it's a cool weapon for him because he was iconic with it.

I do with that Sima Yi had a gold helmet, though. It was something that was recognizable, and since they're doing multiple costumes (Xiahou Dun before/after with the eye patch, Sima Shi before/after the mask) they could add Liao Hua with a normal helmet and Sima Yi with a gold helmet, then after Wu Zhang plains Sima Yi has a black one of something while Liao Hua wears the gold one.

This because when Sima Yi was retreating, Liao Hua almost captured him, and ended up only knocking the helmet off his head.

Also, something I hope they do is add the part of Tong Gate where Ma Chao was owning, and Cao Cao ended up dressing as a common soldier to prevent Ma Chao discovering him. It would be interesting to be fighting then noticing a lowly soldier has a ton of health, and look at his face to notice it's actually the most powerful man in China.

Edit: Cao Pi, cut from the game? Nonsense. Absolute nonsense. Not only would the history nuts riot, but the fangirls and fanboys would rush the KoeiTecmo headquarters and tear the place asunder.

I doubt Cao Pi's getting cut. Just probably a shorter lifespan.
Ya I don't think they would do that no Cao Pi, no Zhen Ji
For DW3 and DW4 there was Zhen Ji but no Cao Pi and I guess you could say she did ok without him....

But nevertheless, KOEI would never cut Cao Pi. I think KOEI has learned their lesson from cutting characters in DW6, I am sure of that.

Cao Pi has already been confirmed. He will be alive during Wei's kingdom mode and will most likely appear in the Wei's ending. Jin will probably take after Wei's kingdom mode ending whereas Cao Pi will not be present during Jin's Kingdom mode, making it possible for Cao Pi and Sima Shi to exist in the same game for contrast between the two.

Do we need the wannabe gangsta talk on a freaking DW board? Why does it take them so long to update the English site after the JP site? Considering the game is out not long after the JP release, it would be nice if the sites could be kept more up to date so we could read about the system and hear the English VAs etc.
Do we rally need a wannabee moderator on a freaking DW board?

Seriously leave him alone I didn't realize calling someone out on the way they talk was required listen to someone who knows this (myself)

Assuming all the characters return except for Zuo Ci, and including Xiahou Ba, we are at 60. There will be more than 60 characters, but it could also be as few as 61.

We're at 60, huh. I gotta say I'm impressed with the new roster so far. Any more new guys would be icing on the cake.

Btw, was Zuo Ci a real person? What did he do?

They pretty much confirmed Cao Pi is dead by then. I'm curious to see who exactly in Wei is going to be opposed to the Simas that's not just new generation dudes like Xiahou Ba and Zhuge Dan

So, Sima Yi doesn't just barge into Xu Chang like he does in DW6 and bumps off Cao Cao? :P

Koei has a real issue with Wei emperors post Cao Pi. There were so many of them that Koei should either make one, and combine the last 3 emperors and 30 odd years into one guy (probably Cao Rui, going by the Jin description on the site, and the fact that he was Pi's crown prince); or I think they could have them all as UNPCs. I would think it would be too much work to have them all playable when it would add so little to the game. And I mean really, who wants to play as 4 different Wei emperors?

Hey is it confirmed that there will be updates next week?

Last time I checked, whenever there is a big update the following week, the week prior to it, Koei would announce that there is a chunk load of info next week.

Even the PV was announced the week Jia Xu and friends got released.

I haven't heard of any news that there will be major updates next week.

I think the updates would be next2 week, since there are no announcements.

The next batch should involve the three heirs Cao Pi, Sun Quan and Liu Shan* then Pang De, Guan Ping, Wei Yan and Dong Zhuo.

I can't tell you for sure if Zuo Ci actually existed or not but from what I read when I looked him up, it seems that he spent a great deal of time trolling the hell out of Cao Cao.

I can see that too but the only thing that gets in that way is the fact that on the website, in Jin's introduction, it states that the Emperor Cao Pi dies young leaving in his place a new and insecure Emperor, one who fears the influence of the Sima family. This just screams out Cao Rui and then I could see him taking Cao Shuang's role of the one who gets tricked and loses Wei to the Sima Clan.

Sima Yi over threw Cao Shuang in a oup d'etat and became in control of the Cao Wei government, thus allowing his grandson Sima Yan, usurp the Wei throne.

Jin will be fighting enemies in and out of Wei. Sima Yi and the rest of the Jin officers will most likely fight the remnants of Wei. These remnants will attempt to remove them from power, causing confusion within Wei.

I distinctly recall Koei saying there would be a character update this coming week, back when the last batch came out.

And yes, Zuo Ci did really exist; in reality I don't think his life was quite as interesting as it's made out to be. Although it was said that he was good in bed and could lengthen his life by doing so. :kurokan:

My points exactly. Although I see Cao Rui being the fitting choice since he was the first to have problems with the Sima's authority. Plus, he was already mentioned in the official site so . . .

I would prefer Cao Shuang considering how greater of a story it would be with Xiahou Ba.

It'll pretty much group all the Wei emperors after Cao Pi into one person. As much as I really really don't want it to happen, it'll likely be Cao Rui due to being Cao Pi's son, even though he wasn't insecure nor fearful(in fact he was very competent, even more so than Cao Pi was.) It could also be Cao Fang or Cao Huan, both which would be a much more appropriate choice I think(and both were ineffectual chumps.)

ah, I've forgotten all about Cao Huan; but I see thing Cao Emperor merge thing that's going to happen.

Too be honest, I never even thought about Wei getting another playable emperor in DW7 considering how awesome Cao Pi is ^_^

Cao Rui accomplished hell of a lot more then Cao Pi ever did. At least that's what I can assume given how much longer he's been on the throne.

If Cao Pi will really be offed near the end off screen, perhaps it'll be a UNPC.

But if that's really the case, doesn't give an excuse for not giving us somebody after Sun Quan, unless that'll be confirmed too.

EDIT: I'm actually surprised more info will be coming next week. Seems so soon as it feels like only yesterday Jia Xu was revealed.

With DW7 and MvC3 reveals next week, gives me something to look forward too.
