:XD Fair enough, i can agree to that... At least we can agree on the fact that its not a pike anyway :whistle: ..

Something i noticed is Koei has called Pang De's Third weapon on Dw5 as a Poleaxe and looks like one as such and yet they call it a Halberd in the 2nd and 4th form... I Think its safe to say that Koei are very confused :hehe: , He also uses it as a halberd and not a poleaxe i noticed.

Yea technically his is pretty far from a Pike lol

Lu Meng's is the only one remotely close to a Pike.

Regarding the surprise for the UK people, Koei said this in reply to someone on their Facebook status...

"We're still working on the special stuff, give us few more days"

Looks like we'll have to be patient.

戟 = geki = ji = Chinese halberd

This is the weapon for Guan Yu, Lu Meng, and Xu Huang.

Lu Bu's is the Fang Tian Hua Ji (方天畫戟), which is a specific kind of Chinese halberd.

Note the "ji" character is the same in both weapon names.
Whoosh.

Whoosh.
Isnt that just the chinese being lazy?.. They are a type of polearm as we said, not a type of halberd as halberds are a type of polearm... Why swap the two around?

Im excited to see what Diao Chan's whip looks like. I hope it looks dark and manipulative like she looks this game. I also hope the moveset is kind of "dark" as well.

What the hell does that even mean?

It says "ji" in Chinese right there! That's a halberd! It's the exact word used for those characters' weapons on the scans and the site.

Which is lost in translation over to English by Koei because their name is Pike in the English version =P

I think I've made my opinion clear before on what I think about Koei's localization/translation team.

It's really dumb when they've translated it correctly as "halberd" in the past too. ...and have translated it wrong as well in the past.

I'll probably end up saying pike in the end just to avoid confusion, but with a grimace.

The problem is translating as Halberd is still incorrect.

Lu Meng nor Guan Yu use a Halberd by definition, they both use Glaives, Xu Huang and Lu Bu use Halberds.

There is no hope for translating from Eastern Languages into English when it comes to these slightly different weapon types I guess, might as well just call them all sticks.

I'm just going to go with their category names, doesn't drastically bother me although it is wrong. I wish they'd just call them Polearm instead of Pike but guess that'd conflict with the Double Voulge and Halberd which are also Polearms.

Gah..

Are the musous unique to each character like the ex attacks or are musous just unique to weapon catagories (sorry to bring this up, im not complaining though. I just want to clarify).

This intruiges me! Does this mean we'll be getting something different to the Japanese? o.o

But I don't mind what we get; I'll take anything! x3 :bowdown:

I'll wait to pre-order mine until Game have the extras on their site, they'd usually send them regardless of when you ordered, but I'm overly cautious, heh. :}

and wasn't there any screenshots in this Famitsu update?

oh and Pang Tong's "monk staff" is the same weapon type as Zhang Jiao's, right? ^^
