@ necrosis
...lol ok thanx for that random post......

:dance:


I don't think they've said how many weapon DLC they are planning right? I'm presuming its 6, but I can't find any evidence for a real number.
Next time try not to rush in, and let the people answer from themselfs .
If you did That probably you've seen That I wasent asking the same question That was answered .

And you don't have the right to call "these guys" to anyone,
Like i've said before you don't know me, so give some respect to other's .


About the DLC, why not give super sentai era's to all kingdoms,
And with That some future weapon skins ^_^

I don't think Sun Quan needed a new weapon, but for the obvious reasons of "Fire" and "Sword", it'd work for him. If it happens, I'd like the Sword to go down to Others just to flesh out their ranks with a few uniques. Give it and Spear to Yan Liang and Wen Chou, and I'm good.

Also, that would mean Sun Quan would join Cao Cao and Sima Zhao as main kingdom leaders with magic swords, leaving Liu Bei as the last one with a... normal moveset. Thunder Swords incoming...?

Magical thunder twin swords, this I GOTTA see :P
Maybe they're called 'Tenjin Blades' or something like that

Of course the other three match, even Sun Quan and his magical flaming sword :D

I think Koei want to let go his dao for the generics.

With this method, characters will own newer weapon while their old weapons aren't wasted because they're going to the generics.

Probably Yuanji's new weapon is coming. Well, all DW7 original weapons are imbalance towards the new ones anyway..

Liu Bei's double sword is perfect. But he needs to buy a new one with new movesets from eBay.

If the Blaze Sword does go to someone, I hope Koei doesn't cop out and give it to Cheng Pu. That man needs something Serpentine or Spear like (hence Serpent Spear), but that's probably wishful thinking.

Outside of Sun Quan I think this sword is also fits Zhu Ran with all that "Burning of the Shu camps" thing.

I don't think Zhu Ran fits with Blazing Sword. IT DOES fit with it since he's the one to cause Shu lose against Wu in Battle of Yiling. I'm guessing that we shall see in the future.

If it goes to any of the existing cast, i'd prefer it go to Sun Quan. It might not look right on him, at first, but it really grows on him. The fire theme goes really ell with all of his musous and his EX move too, anyway, so it's kinda tailored made for him.

Plus...it looks identical to his pre-DW6 weapon anyway. It's just the moveset itself seems super erratic and acrobatic for him (and no, acrobatic does not mean "jumps a lot"). Still, it'd be no different than getting over Zhuge Dan and his choke slams and people's elbow, and unlike Danny boy this sword actually makes sense for Quan :XD

But if it were to go to a new character, then yeah, I'd kinda like it to be Zhu Ran. Not Cheng Pu, the moveset is too...energetic and careless for Cheng Pu, in terms of personality. Not how I imagine Cheng Pu to move.

Cheng Pu can get the screw crossbow since Han Dang and Huang Gai doesn't get their own weapon. :whistle:
Well, regardless, we have to wait another week or two to find about the that new weapon.

So people who have the DLC weapons, can we have opinions from you? What works and what doesnt with these weapons? Are they worth the money or not?

Cheers

if zhu ran gets added he should get a bladed torch.This way the flame sword could go to sun quan that way the dao is generic only or make it where the older weapons like the dao can be ownerless.

I always wanted him to have a two-sided torch for his weapon. I think it would be very unique and fit his character well.

And I see the emblem for the flame sword is a generic sword with "DLC" scribbled over it. Why does Koei do that? Does anyone actually prefer that generic emblem over an actual emblem of the weapon? I know this is a minor detail, but it seems so tacky to me.

I think that Sun Quan should arguably get this sword, however not totally fussed if he does not, if it's added to a new character fair enough. As for the flame torch idea for Zhu Ran I kind of like that idea since apparently when Zhu Ran was recommended by Lu Meng he was given a staff of authority by Sun Quan, if it had like torch effects on it could be cool, but another clone to Zhou Yu is perhaps pushing it at most.

What interests me most about DLC weapons is I know its a scam but they try to work with new formulas to create a unique weapon, dragging a weapon to increase damage is new, so what else perhaps could we see for future DLC is perhaps unknown?

Every DLC weapons back in DW7 were brought to DW8. So this time I think I won't buy since they aren't game-changing enough. Unless at the same time they release a patch to directly replacing someone with the new weapon complete with EX and Musou.

Arguably I couldn't agree more.
Just as long as its affordable including DLC, then I don't see the problem.

The fifth skin of the blaze blade looks really deadly, with those shardes sticking out of it! One slice would just rip anyone to shreads, nice to see the details they're putting into even the DLC weapons. The Blaze blade & Screw bow both have been detailed quite well!

The weapons are supposed to look deadly and fierce ^_^
The blaze blade is definitely my favorite, it looks so...deadly and cool with it flaring up in flames ^^

I don't think I will get any DLC weapons this time around either. Despite how cool they might be, it seems very likely they will be added in later installments anyway so i can wait it out. Also, if I was on the fence, the fact that they are still using the generic sword DLC emblem for DLC weapons instead of making a new weapon, has convinced me not to buy them because it comes off as tacky and lazy. As of right now, I think I will hold out until Empires or DW9 to use these weapons. YouTube videos can tidy me over until then.

Oh of course they do, but I mean look at it! It looks amazing and scary at the same time, really glad they've put some good details into it. Happy with what they're doing with DLC.

Its only minor and petty, but Im a little ticked off that the DLC weapons dont have their own weapon icons. I know they didnt have them in DW7 either, but it would be nice if they did. Never mind though.
