So is it safe to assume that were getting a famitsu scan today? |

Um, they never did say Tuesday exactly. ^_^;; More like from 15th Feb [onwards], if anything.. Which I took/take to mean any time after the 15th, but not necessarily on it (so it wasn't as if they truly promised it on that day). @Avieure: Yup.. Though Jin was/is likely to get more individual character time anyway, being the shiny new Kingdom and all. |

Koei apparantly said that Ma Chao isn't getting a lot of screentime. Part of that might be that Shu has more characters than any other kingdom, so they had to share out the screentime between all of them. Wu, Wei and especially Jin would have less of that problem as they have fewer characters, so each character in those kingdoms might have more screentime to themselves. |

Just reshowing this in case anyone may have missed it. These are the two MOST RECENT Twitter posts. And they talk about victory poses, and if they pose changes if you have a certain weapon equipped. |

I'm disappointed about Ma Chao going to have small screen time in DW7. One of my favorite characters in the entire game. Judging by various polls on these forums and on the official KOEI forums he is one of the most popular Shu characters, so I can see quite a few people being mad or disappointed if this is indeed true. (Ma Chao is sometimes right next to Zhao Yun in terms of popularity, anyways...) Now, I'm wondering as to how big or small of a role Ma Dai will have.

Fair point. I'm fairly sure that Ma Chao only severed with Liu Bei for about 6/7 years (though in the novel it might have been slightly longer), so it's not that much time in the grand scheme of things, especially as it looks like Shu's story is going to cover the most ground of the 4. |

Compleatly agree with everything you said, dynasty warriors was getting old, needed a new thing, story mode will bring that And Concuest/kingdom mode will differentiate the game. On a different note, what time we expecting the scanss???

They mention it in relation to both story mode and chronicle mode, right? ..Do you have an idea more specifically about what they're saying there (why mention each mode in relation to victory poses? Would it not be the same for the whole game? :S) - I can't get a clear enough idea.. My knowledge of Japanese grammar pretty much sucks, sadly. -_-; ..I thought I might ask you just in case you know, sorry to bother you about it if you don't. ^_^; |

Okay, so, recapping the known Kingdom Mode stages for characters so far, and my take on the choices: SHU Zhang Fei: Battle of Xia Pi Makes as much sense as Liu Bei or Guan Yu, really, so nothing to say about that. Plus, Zhang Fei and Lu Bu have always had an adversarial relationship, so having Zhang Fei fight Lu Bu here is a good choice. Zhao Yun: Battle of Chang Ban (Early) Another no-brainer. Zhao Yun is probably the most important Shu character you can have in this stage besides Liu Bei. WEI Jia Xu: Battle of Tong Gate This is honestly the only battle I would've chosen for Jia Xu. The problem with Jia Xu as a character is that he actually wasn't present at that many battles, but this was one where he was quite important. Zhang Liao: Battle of He Fei (Early) Another good choice. Makes sense, too - he's the defining point of the battle. I'm curious who they'll use for the later half of the battle, however - most likely Xu Huang or someone. WU Sun Ce: Battle of Liang Province Now this is a damn puzzle. While it's nice that KOEI is finally acknowledging Sun Jian's part in putting down Han Sui's rebellion instead of giving all the attention to Dong Zhuo, Sun Ce wasn't even involved with this. It's almost as bad as having him around in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, when he was eight, like DW6 did. Sun Shang Xiang: Battle of Shou Chun Nice to see the Yuan Shu battle returning, and it seems they're keeping the "Sun Ce meets Liu Bei and Sun Shang Xiang gets all starry eyed" angle. (That's only partially sarcasm.) I'm just glad that Liu Bei won't be showing up to help Sun Ce conquer the Wu territories again for some reason. This is as good an opportunity as any for her to meet Liu Bei before Chi Bi, so, eh. JIN Zhuge Dan: Battle of Dong Xing (Early) Honestly, this is the only battle that would even make sense for you to play as Zhuge Dan (unless KOEI were making it possible to play as his side in his rebellion - which they aren't). It'll play out his rivalry with Ding Feng and possibly set up his downfall, so a wise choice. Wang Yuan Ji: Battle of Dong Xing (Late) Nothing much to say about this. I'm more surprised that she wasn't picked to put down Zhong Hui's rebellion, however, since she's the one that predicted it in the first place. Sima Zhao: Sima Shi's Raid (?) I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that this is where Sima Shi has Cao Mao killed. Not sure about this, but there's not really much else to say about it. |

Calm down guys. People should've known from the start some people would be snubbed. Anyway, there is still the chance of scans today to make up for the lack of the PV. :3 |

Because the novel version of Ma Chao was a badass. If you don't see much in Tong Gate you may need to read that part again, or if you haven't, you may need to do so to make such a claim. Cao Cao was rolling around doing whatever he wanted to, then when he killed Ma Teng, Ma Chao rode in for vengeance, took the western capital of Chang An from him (no easy feat) and when the battle rolled over to Tong Gate, he beat up on three of his generals in duels and then had Cao Cao on the run to the point where the Prime Minister of the Han was cutting his beard off and dressing like a common soldier to hide from Ma Chao, who personally almost killed him in his flight. He also dueled Xu Chu, who historically was Cao Cao's strongest general and best dueler, to a draw. When he learned about Han Sui, which was all mostly a trick that made Ma Chao turn on him, he cut off the guys hand and started wrecking his own allies. Just an overall badass event, right there. And to give Ma Chao more screen time could also mean showing more of Ma Teng's relationship with Cao Cao, where Ma Chao was also doing work in their earlier battles, and showing Ma Chao and Han Sui capturing Chang An. Novel version Ma Chao was sick. Always with the silver dragon armor, Cao Cao himself was awestruck by the man. Historically of course, he was absolute crap. Headstrong and arrogant, terrible at nearly everything but fighting and even then, not that good. |

a bit dissappointed that Ma Chao wont have much involvement in the actual story mode of the game but hey once i finish it,I'm gonna max out chronicle mode with him XD,he's been my favorite from the beginning and im not gonna let a little screentime keep me from playing Ma Chao most of the time. oh and with the EU DW7 being delayed,now is the perfect time to put this,i made it and it needed to be done: Spoiler: click to toggle

nice choices Little Conquerer i want to add more obvious ones lol. Ma Chao in Tong Gate. Almost about every leader should start in the YTR yes that's including Dong Zhuo. Most likely Lu Bu's first stage is Hu Lao Gate, umm maybe Zhuge Liang is Bo Wan Po or Bo Wang Po maybe? |

Australian game store sites have yet to change the release date for DW7 to April 1, though they tend to be a little slow. Still, the 3DS isn't being released here until March 31; moving DW7 to April 1 would be very silly here if it had anything at all to do with not wanting to be close to the 3DS and SW Chronicles launch, as that actually moves it closer. |

The thing about Ma Chao though, is that his one shining moment is Tong Gate. I mean I've always liked the guy (didn't play DW6) but the fact is he's a bit of a one hit wonder, and it's not surprising to hear he won't get much screen time. Now if he's not one of the central characters in Tong Gate, then I'll start ranting and raving. |

Ma Chao was never really much of a significance when he joined Shu. He was a lot better when he was leading the army himself. So he assisted Liu Bei in taking Shu... led an army with Zhang Fei to attack Han Zhong but failed... after taking Han Zhong he was stationed up North to keep Wei and the Qing tribe away... then he died. 0.0 He died in 220 historically (correct me if I'm wrong)... he didn't do much. Its no surprise he doesnt have much of a role in Kingdom mode because 1) There's no OTHER kingdom mode 2) they are being accurate to history. So... lovers of the Spear of Justice... play as him in Chronicle XD |

Lol nine times out of ten he won't disappoint I'n looks I'm a tad bit nervous on weapon though. Also since I'm not simple minded I'm easily going to have ma chao shine I'n conquest mode and accept the fact that he won't most likely get screen time but I am sure he's not the only one. Whew I am also curious on the reveals, can't wait. Also the one thing about the delay for European is you guys might get a demo speaking of which I hope we get a demo this month. |

I'm not complaining that he won't get much screen time, I'm just saying the reason people want him to get more is because he was a badass (in the novel). I agree that he did little to help Liu Bei in terms of Shu so story mode won't follow him much. He is one of my favorite characters, though, always has been since DW3, and I'll definately play him in Chronicle Mode, where I can take out Chang An and Tong Gate. It'd be cool if during Wei's story mode, the part where Cao Cao's running in absolute terror from Ma Chao happened, and you played the role of Cao Hong, where you come in right as Ma Chao's about to kill Cao Cao and duel him, allowing Cao Cao to escape. |

Regarding the two latest tweets. There is no victory pose in Story Mode due to the seamless scene transition; as in, once you win the stage, it will transition into the post-stage cutscene then and there(if I'm understanding this correctly,) skipping the victory posing. Chronicle Mode will not have victory poses either due to the intended "high tempo" of that mode. |
