I'm actually wondering what this DLC menu at the weapon shop stands for.
DLC skins that you have to download but buy in game ? Nonsense...
I don't think so.
Garnix, i want to ask you again regarding this sentence.
BK, said that the dlc menu might alos be weapon skins...why do you think DLC skins is impossible to have its own menu/section?
Actually I think buying a skin on the psn is enough to acquire it.
What would be the point of downloading a thing you will have to just buy again in-game ?
DW7 handled it well, making the weapon skins available in some DLC stages.
But buying something in game when you just bought it in real life just sounds weird to me.

But of course it's possible.
You know, making dlc movesets when there is no more clones sounds weird to me as well...

The only thing I won't find weird at the moment is characters as DLC.

Pure speculation.

Hmm..correct me if im wrong. But isnt koei didnt plan from the very beginning that they want to declone them through dlc? It's like they just add the weapon dlc to bring more variety.And the fans feedback to them by saying they should keep the dlc weapon as to declone them. And koei take that action, and declone them through dlc and empires.

Are you really sure that these weapons wasn't there for decloning purpose ?
Dagger Axe
Great Axe
Pudgil sticks
Spiked Shield
Boomerang

If they make DLC weapons in DW8, now that there are no clones, I think all the weapons will go to a new character in dw9,. And it is exactly what happened with Han Dang.
So, if they release 10weapons as DLC again...how many new movesets will we get in dw9? 0? But 10 new characters...

Hmmm...not really..if they follow pattern with DW7XL or DW8. Maybe they can do thing like what i said before
Quote:
 
I kinda wish for that to happen too..
Guan Ping's and Xiaoqiao's old weapons from DW5 making a comeback thus leaving their original weapon to generics.

But how about the throwing knives, spear, club, and shaman staff?

All i can say, is release the new moveset of the weapon..under different name. Let see..Ma Chao's new spear named "Acrobatic/Wind spear"...Xu ZHu's club becomes Cow hammer(THe design is based on cow)/Morning star. Throwing knives becomes Joker's knives. Shaman staff..becomes heaven staff


So a new moveset for each of the moveset shared with generics but under different names.

Of course i wont mind, if there is a new weapon completely.

Did somebody said twin spears? That sounds a good dlc weapons, but I think Ma Chao will keep his weapon. If the leak is true for Xtreme Legend, it can fit Yu Jin, but I can be wrong..

yu Jin doesnt deserve that weapon for his cowardice..

LOL

I imagine yu jin using different weapon than twin spear. I imagine him as a thief character, gan ning's twin daggers comes to mind.

Lol, still talking about cowardice? I'm looking at the history before he surrender to Guan Yu.

Anyway, Twin Daggers to Yu Jing sounds... good, but not great, that's in my opinion. I'm going to stick with twin spears until we find a better weapon idea for him.

I always imagine as that playful kind of guy more playful than Li Dian(Hence why i thought Li Dian is Yu Jin at the beginning), like Tidus.That's why i thought a quick weapon is better for him.Oh i forgot to say that is a joke, that he is a coward.

Ah, I didn't see the last part. :XD
Alright then, I don't know Yu Jin is joking around (although that sounds cool), but I think that with him being the serious man, I think it will be interesting.

I think you misunderstood me.
I hope Yu Jin is the playful one.
The thing i said about him being a coward is a joke. He is a great commander, although when he decided surrender is despicable.But i guess if you want to stay alive all you can do is surrender.

I wonder if Koei could support the game with new modes? Maybe add back challenge mode and support it through DLC, new modes to play on challenge. Its a long shot but yano.

I still think to date, the best DLC Koei have done is the weapons and I hope to see that continue with DW8 and her expansions.

DLC Weapons: I'm pretty sure it can support all the modes just like Dynasty Warriors 7 did.

Challenge mode is good to add, but I think it's going to keep it at Extreme Legend Mode... Either way, Can't wait to see the gameplay.

New costumes would be very good, I thought the new ones for DW7 newbies were better then their default ones. Lets hope Koei put a little bit more thought into the costumes.

On that note I hope they put a little bit more thought into DLC weapons too, there is thinking inside the box (Dual Daggers etc), but then there is thinking outside the box, (magic, melee). I want to see a whole range of new weapons/movesets.

I agree, I like realistic weapons like I posted early, but I also like how they give some strategy type of characters magic like weapons. As for Yu Jin i'd have to agree with the majority here, I'd rather he not get the dual spears (Rather them go to Du Yu, Lu Kang, Cheng Pu, or Hu Fen). They should give him a white flag for a weapon? lol jm I like the thief idea for his character. Dual Daggers could work

@Ma Chao's weapon He may keep it this time... Doesn't mean he'll keep it throughout the 8 series. I've already stated my reasoning why prior to this.

@Dian Wei's dw6 weapon yes the weapon is a form of flail and shares minor similarities with the flail set. MINOR is the keyword, especially now that the flail moveset has changed to fit gan ning. This weapon could fit Xu Zhu perfectly IMO.

Moving on After watching the demo... And seeing Li Dian weapon in play... Yes Koei needs to keep bringing in more exciting weapons. I love the realistic weapons too.. But Li Dian has so much potential after watching his demo. Even weapons like the Rake among others, just seeing what they can do... :drool:

I agree, we should also look at what the weapon can do besides what type of weapon it is. Li Dian looked good in the demo, his weapon is very unique!

They do that well i think when it comes to DLC weapons... they released weapon packs which featured cast iron sellers like the demand Buckler Shield/Twin Wands/Boomerang etc but they also released weapons people would never have guessed... no one could accuse them of not thinking outside the box with giant iron boats which create tidal waves or swords which slow time.

I want more balance as well though - Lu Tzu mentioned realistic weapons, weve almost left that side of things altogether. Everyone who is being decloned is now creating clones and mass shockwaves etc - its a relief at least the likes of Lu Meng and Sun Quan are keeping the older movesets but i get a feeling people DONT want realistic weapons as DLC, instead they want purely OTT ones. Heck at one point after Cao Ren got the Buckler Blade many were happy at the prospect of the Short Halberd and Flail being dissed from the weapons list altogether.

I think they will keep the realistic ones coming too. Yue Jin's set turned out great IMO, they gave him some sort of dodge that makes me wanna use him. Not to mention the weapon scoops. I'm glad the flail stayed... Also glad that it turned out well for my boy Gan Ning. I have a feeling guys like Lu Meng, which is also one of my favs, will feel more refreshing now that they are decloned. I didn't really want Lu Meng's weapon changed... Just a few charge attacks. I honestly miss his old c6 lol. And I think they can do better with his c3 which came from the dw6 spears. I don't mind his Ex or the rest of it really. And don't care if it's left as is.

But things like shockwaves... Weapons have been doing that for awhile just not in this capacity. Koei is trying to get a lil more eye candy in the game I guess. We will see how things turn out.

Personally i wouldn't mind to see realistic weapons as DLC. If the moveset turns out interesting and and easy to use then why not? Though i admit that for now i want Xiaoqiao's twin fans to be released first over any other dlc weapons. :innocent:

Something that we can agree on Xiao Qiao's weapon.

Anyway, I would like to see new weapon like rope dart, long sword, and reversedgrip sword.

Xu shu's sword is basically reversed grip sword...unless you dislike the hook part which can also take the rope dart things.

How about Items dlc like..
Pill of Kohryu - Full Awakened Bar for 5 times
BUddha's teeth - Invincibility

I don't hate it, but something that has its own unique, items doesn't sound bad at all.

Add dlc weapon wish: twin edge spear that can be detach to become twin short spears.

@Xiao Qiao weapon Hope the wish is granted. It's highly requested by her fans.

the twin edge spear sounds cool, I'd like seeing something like that. They released 11 weapons last time in Dynasty Warriors 7. They were a mix between old and new weapons so lets hope they do that again.

Yeah I guess so, they did quite well with DLC weapons, brought back old weapons, fan wanted weapons and new weapons which were thought out of the box.

I hope Koei repeat this, I want to see the Bladebow and Dual Daggers for returning weapons. But, like Daikyō said, I hope there are more realistic weapons as DLC, I dont mind over the top weapons, but it becomes a bit tedious after a while.
