Well, people are saying they could have put the proper people on the Wei side at Fan castle if there had been another stage for the story to end, however Guan Yu died right after the battle, Cao Cao died soon thereafter, and Xiahou Dun before Wu Zang, the next big wei vs shu battle that you could end a story mode on. And even if there were, having set up the Wei story with Cao, Dun as a centerpiece and Guan yu as Dun's opposite, they had to roll with it even if they have to make "concessions" for the sake of story closure. |

@Tigris solis orientis: I've read you like Fan Castle's music, but it's not stage specific unique. I've said and heard it many times through the posts, it's actually the music that plays when winning/advantage and is an extended version of the opening. I've now seen Sun Jian's, Ce's and Zhou Yu's deaths, I would have to save Jian's seemed the saddest. Sun Ce's face looked absolutely distraught and he stood there like he froze. Sun Quan actually gets a very happy ending, opening his eyes to ''those things'' in front of his face and with a happy atmosphere.

Yeah, its pretty f'd up. Conquest mode seems like it will be as cold and emotionless (characterization wise) as DW6 empires. |

Nope, Jin's Kingdom Mode begins with Sima Yi attacking Gongsun erm, Yuan I think, or maybe Kang. Either way, it isn't Wu Zhang. I just hope they make Wu Zhang pretty awesome for Sima Yi in conquest. |

I haven't touched Kingdom Mode yet. I'll give a few stages a shot and see if I unlock anything (stages/characters) for Chronicle Mode immediately after doing them. Translation request: ![]() Can anyone tell me what the numbers on the left side are? I know on the right are my gold and I know that the numbers show (from top to bottom): Earned in battle, Previous, New Total. I just can't figure out what that 2297 is supposed to be. It isn't how much skill points I have because I only have 110 of those and it's not kills because my kill count is 642. |

That's what I've been worrying about everyday since the game was announced. Now, there are two complains from this game that aggrevate me, leave out Xu Huang's story behind Guan Yu's drama to tie in with Xiahou Dun(He don't have to be playable, just take part in the stage and let the guy who actually fought the arrogant Wargod in that battle while Dun provide assistance) Cao Ren will also interact with Dun, but not Sima Yi. Let the traitor(Yes, he's a traitor, even if you don't pity Cao Shuang's political/military mistakes) remain behind the scenes to observe the three men narration with their objective. Zhou Tai and Ding Feng can make up most of the last stage story so Sun Quan can interact with them to prove assistance the same way, instead of hogging his glory for himself.(Without these magificant talent, Zhongmou, you're nothing but an impatient scholar like you were meant to be from the beginning.) Sheesh, the story can not get any worst than DW 6 here because everything centers on Sima Yi, Guan Yu, Sun Quan, and Jin Dynasty. I knew Koei tried hard to make an entertaining story, but with questionable choices. |

I know people dislike DW6 for various reasons, but I will never understand people who say it had the worst story. Personally to me it had the best stories that DW has had in a long time... |

Jian's death scene for once was done epically good so I give them props for that. It even got me all teary eye from it. Ce's was pretty sad too and at least showed some emotion unlike in the previous games. I am surprised he didn't throw his back out with the size of those cannons she has while being in his arms... meh, I didn't like the ending though. That ruined it for me along with few other scenes with them. |

I've just seen the biggest load of tosh on these forums in a while. Most of you haven't even played the game yet and already you are critising aspects of Kingdom Mode before you even started. Its this sort of pessimistic view people have before the disc even enters the console that really bugs me. Yes there are flaws but you look at the horrible 1 based character musou modes of DW5 and you look at Kingdom Mode I would most definitely pick the latter. I'm not a DW7 fanboy because I haven't played it yet therefore not made my judgements. But can I remind all of you, if you play a game and you enjoy it then that game has done its job even I had fun playing Dynasty Warriors 6 even when I played as Xiahou Yuan with his cloned moveset at Mt Ding Jun I still enjoyed the battles. Lets be happy we are getting a DW, the amount of hatred launched at Koei from its mistakes (rushing) in DW6 could have made them say ''Alright then lets screw the series and move on'' and not many people here want that I imagine. Lets have some optimism people. Games are for fun nothing else imo. Phew that was a long speech. |

As bothered as I am about the lack of characters in Kingdom mode, I can't ignore the awesome gameplay with the seemless transitions, different weapons, different musous, music, flaming Red Hare(!) and Conquest mode, and the tiny little touches that makes things more interesting (defecting officers switching colors). From what I have seen, DW7 blows DW6 right out of the water. I guess people were expecting it to blow DW6 out of the whole planet and from that dissapointment. |

For the guys who posted the alternate costumes in spoiler tags, could you be so kind and just post the links? Copying them myself isn't working and there really isn't a need to put spoiler tags on pictures

Will do! Planning on taking pics of all the alternates eventually. @kaiosuke37 I removed the image code from the quote, but left it in tags so it doesn't stretch the page. Those are direct links to my pics. Is that what you wanted? Edited by AdawgDaFAB, Wed Mar 9, 2011 9:17 pm.

I wouldn't count alternate costumes as spoilers. Spoilers would be like watching story mode stages and cutscenes or story related events/situations. |

Its like this people are placing so much hype on DW7 that the flaws therefore burn deeper. Dynasty Warriors 7 does blow Dynasty Warriors 6 (and 5,3 and 2 imo) out of the water. The Kingdom Mode works better imo to sucessfully tell the story and can we all remember that Jin has only been added Koei has took Jin for a drive test and is probably going to expand via DLC or Dynasty Warriors 8 (if there is one). Cmon everyone actually show some support for Koei (if not for the rushed mess of 6) then for the greats like 4 and 3 (4 is my fav if that makes my arguement understandable.

Oh there I was thinking lvls had been replaced completley with stat boosts by smacking officers. Huh makes sense otherwise peon slaying wouldn't be so fruitful. |

Ah! Thanks! I'm super excited to see if Zhen's pants are indeed gone in her alternate. She looked so pretty! I'm also hoping Yue Ying's give her a tan and auburn hair.. Guh, I can't wait to play this game.. I also have a question, are Conquest mode stages all like 10 minutes long? Story mode has greatly lost its appeal to me after excluding all of my favourites so I'm hoping that Conquest mode is fulfilling enough to make up for that. |

I didn't think this game would escape orbit, but I feel that my hopes were reasonable. I expected DW7 to build on DW6's main strength - improved battle immersion. I did not expect the promising DW6 siege elements to be stripped down to an occasional big piece of machinery for the player to use, and omitted from battles that historically involved long-term siege. I expected the kingdom stories to highlight badassery for as much of the cast as possible, with a thought-out and varied selection of playable roles. I did not expect that some characters would get several stages while other major generals got none - or that some of the era's top commanders would have their iconic roles assigned to a designated poster boy. |

Conquest levels are 10 min each? Where did you read this? I was starting to think why Conquest levels seemed so short when I was watching them streamed, now I'm starting to think they are all short, in order to accommodate online play. |

For anyone wanting to see Sun Jian's death, it happens on the 44th minute: http://www.justin.tv/ecokichi/b/281148891 I think today I'm going to avoid as much as possible now, but if anyone shows me a link to Zhao Yun at Chang Ban please I would be grateful. Thanks. |

. I really like Dun, but the only reason that was done was because it's the last stage for Wei, and they didn't want it ending with characters who're just about to get their highlights but haven't had a huge impact beforehand. Koei were just playing safe, that's all, but instead, playing safe has angered people. If there was another stage for Wei after Fan Castle, I have no doubt Cao Ren would've had Part 1 and Xu Huang 2.
