Sun Jian is not a sushi man? Lol.

And most of us thought Sun Ce is a mountain climber haha. And Zhou Tai is a detective, almost same job as Li Dian.
Tai is private detective, when Dian is inspector, police detective which links with mostly criminal cases, so kinda different areas anyway.
I see. Well, they don't look too differently outfit-wise, except that Zhou Tai has that awesome hat.

What do they think Western maids look like? I've never had a maid that had/seen a tiger tail.... :XD

Should've just went with the stereotypical french maid look. (didn't someone have that look before?)

Zhou Tai's is...alright. Everything else I thought was self explanatory. And I take back what I said about the costumes not fitting certain people. Zhou Yu knowing anything and everything about alcoholic beverages is spot on :XD

And Xiaoqiao's maid costume is more Western than not (if you ignore the tiger ears.)

The reason folks aren't really feeling the new costumes is mostly because their career costumes. Sure they look cool, but not really what you want to see these characters wearing (cept Zhou Tai's, Zhou Tai's is the ****)

The Fantasy Costumes were more along the line of what you would expect to see on characters from an era of warriors, and if we go by the book, magic.

As for the old costumes showing up again, if word gets out that people want those in DW8 now, I'm sure Koei wouldn't mind reciprocating, but the thing is you can't just go off the DLC being on your PS3. Sure programmers could set it up to check if you have the data files, but then they have to some how get that information to the digital market place, which I don't think would be possible right now.

The other thing is that DW7 and DW8 do not share the same character models. I can't tell if the DW7 costumes are just the DW7 character models (easiest way to tell would be to check Lianshi's and see if it's her old facial structure or the new one). What they could have done was include the previous game DLC on the disc of DW8 (preferably refitted to the new character models) and then programmed the disc to check for previous game DLC costumes and then if you have the files, unlock the costumes on the DW8 disc.

But here's the thing, and this is where I make Koei look bad, and possibly Omega Force since it's more than likely the never bothered to pitch such an idea. This guys are a company, who wants to milk our pockets for as much they can get. This is the case with every company that sells a product. If they gave us the old costumes, as in a bunch of costumes in game, you know games use to do, then less people would be likely to buy DLC costumes.

Considering 7 was the first time doing DLC, it is possible for Koei to just rerelease the old costumes, the unlockable one for everyone across the series, the legacy costumes from 2-6, and all the previous DLC for either Free or cheaper than what they originally were. Since the WO3 old school costume packs released for cheap (free in Japan, cause we don't put up as many numbers apparently) that's probably the business model that they'd go off of if they were to resell the costumes.

Would it be good for their image? Probably not but they still want to make money.

As for those thinking DLC weapons will eventually be added to the game anyway, what's the chance they'll be around for long. DW9 could see everyone get reanimated to do new stuff, you most likely won't see them playable until Empires. What if they don't show up in DW9? You will miss your chance to play with them unless you buy Empires.

See, I though Da Qiao's was more western, Xiao Qiao's being more eastern...then again I know nothing about what maids are supposed to look like right now.

DW7 had many characters dressed up in occupational costumes, and I liked most of them, so I doubt the fact they're career costumes has much to do with it. For me, anyway. Well...maybe, but not in the same way you're saying. Maybe its just something that's been done before and I was looking for something new and different beyond modern day costumes, occupational or not.

ROTK inspired costumes, super hero costumes, give everyone European/Bladestorm/Medieval style/influenced outfits. Those'd be pretty neat.

I really only know about one type of maid...and they tend to not wear much clothes. :shifty:

But Xiaoqiao having a tail and tiger ears really just screams very european to me. She looks more like some daycare lady...

@yunglex: Agree with the costume part, you pretty much sums it up, yes i want a new costume that makes it feels like it is a DW9 costume you know what im saying.

AS for weapon, i doubt they will release weapo dlc again in DW9, simply cause i believe they'll remove the weapon switch system...yes i said it they need to remove it already!

lol look at the Wu jobs (sommelier, waiter, bartender, lifeguard, driver, maids, singer), imagine that they own a resort, the Jiangdong resort:

"Here you can enjoy the delicious wine prepared by one of our best sommelier and bartender in our finest restaurant. And if they aren't your taste, there are always maid cafe. You can enjoy diving or collecting pearls in our beach, and don't worry for our lifeguards always watch your back. At night, you can also listen to our enka singer Mr. Ding." something like that.

SSX being a bartender, not a dealer? Hmm. And Han Dang wears green?

There is nothing wrong with the weapon switch system.

A mercenary....or any modern military officer won't be caught dead in bright red camo.

As for Wei:

"We are the new Red Army. Also reserve your doc appointments today, because it takes a year for new patients to get in. Also have you see out entertainment troupe and their uni-cycling bears?"

Clearly not my best writing, but Wei's not as fun to categorize as Wu's.

That's debatable. Very debatable. Not everyone likes it you know, myself included. -_- Let's make a weapon that really suits this character...Nah, we'll just make one anyone can use instead. Unique? Nope, Da Qiao should be able to use Guan Yu's Blue Dragon just as well as he can! Now, if everyone had a unique weapon locked to them personally, and there were tons of side weapons to choose from more common weapons it'd make better sense for anyone to be able to use...that'd be different.

Looking back a few pages, people want to have Xingcai's old weapon back. As much as I enjoyed it back then, I think the sword and shield fit her, she only needs a few changes. Why not separate them? A fork that you can summon similar to Aquaman's trident, and a throwing shield boomerang-liked the one Captain America has. Even one of Xingcai's old charges is throwing her shield like boomerang.

I'm not aching for the twin maces, but I think all the weapons from DW6 should come back in some shape or form.

Yeah I'm hoping for most of the DW6 weapons to come back, I really loved some of them. Anything before DW6, no thanks, especially the river sword and elder sword (those two swords.....bane of my existence)

Chen gong DW9 : Dao

That doesn't sound too bad actually :)

If they do replace Sun Quans weapon with the Blaze Sword then at least the Dao gets a new owner :)

Anybody who suggests Chen Gong gets a sloppy seconds weapon gtfo the forum now, can't be arsed reading that bull ****, especially if it's the Dao or Iron Fan. They won't give a poll winner a weapon already in-game, he'll get something new... fact.
