@Ixbran: I thought the exact same thing earlier. But I was stuDYING for exams, so I couldn't post. :P

Anyone else a little...weirded out that Liu Shan has abs? It doesn't seem like him. But at the same time, it makes his model look better. :P Must hide a lot under that coat. :rolleyes: But he does look like one of those grunts the Sentai fight. At first I thought he was a thief though.

Actually, I think they are needed, because they seem to fit to the DLC outfits quite well.
But yeah, I think they should come in a pack with the outfits.

Good lord, watching the screw crossbow's gameplay video (thank you PeJ ^_^ ), it's like DW and Sengoku Basara had a little crossover.

I actually imagined something way more overpowered.
Unfortunately, it seems PeJ has not mastered the weapon yet, so I couldn't really enjoy the moveset with this video.
Anyway, is that me, or the 5 stars weapon just screams "I've been made for Wu ! Give me to a Wu character !" ?

Comparatively, DW7's initial DLC weapons weren't anymore overpowered than anything already in the game. It was only the second batch of DLC weapons that were ridiculously overkill.

DW8's DLC weapons thus far is better attempt. The two weapons so far have defining gimmicks that really set them apart, yet they're not so much as gamebreaking with the exception of the sword's C6 at full charge. And that is sort of justified with the fact you have to get it to full charge to make it that strong.

So I'm guessing that the new DLC weapon isn't good enough? I'm watching the gameplay and it seem that its' going to be bit difficult and he keep missing?

Or it's just indicative of him not knowing to use the thing.

For anyone expecting an overpowered weapon, they're not going to enjoy it. For someone who wants a weapon that plays radically different from anything else in the game, it's worth it.

SC is quite strange.
Dammage are very poor, but it seems this weapon is there to make critical hits and fast awakening.
Shots does very low damages.

@garnix : I fuse all lvl1,2,3 weapons into level 4.
ANd use it in shosei.
So, to my mind, this weapon is there to fasta wakening not big damage.

Why did Koei have to once again go and create joke weapon skins... i can understand that yes some fit the character - Gas Station Worker Gan Ning/Gas fuel pump flail but that doesnt mate its a wise choice... especially if your more interested in new weapons skins than you ever are of getting costume packs. This kind of the thing was funny first time but when they ended up creating waves of joke weapon skin DLC of which ended up strongest in the game and even screwing over fans of the Orochi series with stupid designs i hoped those days were gone - i was clearly wrong.

New weapon looks reasonable enough though and as for the Shu outfits... mostly lame compared to Wu and Wei packs. Jin doesnt look too promising either though we shall see what the Others come up with.

Does it really matter? Purchasing joke weapons are entirely optional and they're clearly intended for use with the DLC costumes. There is an audience for that.

Additionally whether or not these weapons become overpowered isn't much of a point because DW8's weapon system isn't as linear as 7's. Weapons are far more customizable here as well and with wind, physical attack power doesn't mean crap.

Some but not all... pretty sure ive never seen any guard at Buckingham palace attempt to defend her majesty the queen with a pair of giant hot dogs :mellow: . I would be more comfortable if i knew we would at least get a skin pack rooted more in common sense instead of a theme of stupid followed by more stupid and then some xmas themed stupid. DW7 had very little grounded in the realm of realistic within the context of realistic designs so i thought they would try and mix it up this time.

Its just my opinion, dont really expect many to agree with me but ALL three waves of weapon skin DLC for DW7 featured daft joke weapons some irritatingly mixed with solid designs i wanted but couldnt cherry pick. As you said though they were optional... then Orochi 3 came along and forced them on everyone regardless as the only Big Star options for some characters like Taishi Ci which meant it was no longer an option further enhanced when they even did the same to new characters like Nezha. Orochi 3 put me off joke themed weapons BIG STYLE... i pray i dont have to endure that same kind of guff in Orochi 4 but koei are already following the exact same foot steps as before so i wont be too optimistic on that one.

whata hell, this weapon is freaking huge. What Koei developers think when they decide to create it? and for whom??
overall it seems solid, but way too massive, like stone pillar.

and thanks for the video ^_^

Just found a new video showing the new weapon,
with a level 36 Da Qiao, and in Chaos difficulty DLC 5 star weapon stage.
The weapon build seems quite good, and it looks like Da Qiao air musou really helps :

(OMG at the easy 6000 hit combo without using the awakening musou)

Found one myself, a lot more focused on the weapon itself ;)

Great view of the C6 at 5.17 btw

Im with you on this... though i cant fault the DLC battles either i suppose, they are at least focusing with them on battles not included on the main story (or the disc itself for that matter).

As such the DLC itself so far has been far from a right off but it certainly has a massive amount of room for improvement and very little of it is coming across as must have to me but we shall see what more they have in store for us. Joke Skins, Jin/Others costume pack and DW6 costume pack means weve a wee while before seeing if anything more meaty is being retained for later release.

Oh aye you nearly gave me a heart attack ;) haha.

The battles are now getting bad, they are just copying pasting maps and giving them a twist on story. The DLC map this week was the level where Xiahou Dun loses his eye in the story, rubbish!

Hah yeah - dont worry im sure we will something to argue about soon enough ;)

I had no idea they released another battle DLC this week... was this an independent release or is this a battle attached to say the Screw Crossbow DLC. The better stages are the ones which seem to be independent releases often coming with some sort of wacky mount as a side bonus.

Lmao true that, so far the two mount releases have terrible, though the maps have been excellent. This week is just a map to get the 5th weapon, it's just annoying they can't make a new map for it or something. I'd personally love maybe arena battles and you have to complete the arena of like 50 warriors or something to get the weapon.
