In-game it's called Sabatons, another one called Foot Plates.

Better than greaves at least, which was never correct in the first place and bugged me. If not boots or foot plates, Sabatons is best and is actually the most accurate anyway.

In any case, the only times they have been called foot plates is outside the game. They are never called foot plates in the actual game.

Got the "DLC is damaged and cannot be used" error message after downloading the newest DLC today. Prevents me from loading my save game. Deleting and redownloading, hoping it works. I just wanna use the new weapons :(

Edit: Tried deleting and redownloading. Didn't work. If I delete the newest DLC I can access my save game fine but if I try and play it after downloading it says my save file can't be loaded because of corrupt DLC :/
Is this for the 360 or the PS3? I'm a bit wary of downloading them now (PS3 user here. I guess I could try backing up my save onto USB before downloading the DLC, though I've never done this before)
360. I tried downloading them separately to see what worked. The weapon pack with the Emei Daggers and Sabatons works fine, but the DW6 costumes and Stage pack give me an error message when I load up the game.

after using the Boots i must say I'd prefer them to go to a female character only since the Storm Rush attack reminds me of Chun Li

I've downloaded the stages, weapons and DW6 costumes on the PS3 and I've got no problems here, seems like a 360 only thing maybe. Weird...

New weapons are fun, Sabatons actually make Guan Suo look cool. I know the Emei Piercers were advertised with Wang Yi but I kinda like them on Diaochan...

I used the Boots on Guan Xing and it was quite fun the Emei Daggers went kind of well with Ling Tong but I need to try them with other characters

Ok so I caved and bought the DW6 costumes. Not really much to say there other than that I love them. I've noticed they've made the colours bolder on them though. They still look great, but the colour change is not necessary imo, 6 had some nice subtle colour schemes so bolder doesn't really suit some of the designs so well.

Weapons;
I love the emei piercers. They work really nicely on Wang Yi, Zhou Yu and Zhenji who I have tried so far.

The "Sabatons" (?) - I wasn't really hyped about them, but I obviously gave them a go anyway since they came with the emeis. Only thing I can say so far is whoa they are HUGE. I kinda want them shrunk down because moveset they seem to suit lighter, faster characters but they look awkward on them :crazy:

I think the emei piercers will look great with those 8:XL dresses :sly:

@MCG Isn't it the ROTK inspired ones in a full set? Zhou Tai saving Sun Quan, Zhang Bao and Guan Xing in battle, the peach garden oath, Diaochan tempting Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu.

Yeah but they're not on PSN, just like the themes were never put up for the PS3 menu when you turn the thing on :/ .

They're ingame wallpapers, not XMB themes.

But they show up under the static themes IIRC, the Kingdom wallpapers in 7:XL showed up there.

I thought it was just me getting that message. The last two 360 DLC batches have given me that message. No matter how many times I delete and re-download it, that message always pops up.

It's possible that it's just one of the items you downloaded that's bugged. It's either the stage pack or the ambition mode town for me. Not sure which one.

For me it's any of them. I have tried downloading just the wallpapers or just weapons, same thing happens for each. I think all the DLC in the two most recent Batches may be glitched/bugged.

I hope they are called Foot Plates and not Sabatons. Foot Plates is way more fun.
Sabatons are what they literally are.....

Foot plates however...

Thankfully they are named as Sabatons in-game, so I hear. Grieves though? They must have played SC3 when they thought of that one.

I think someone here started calling them greaves, and everyone else followed suit, after being scolded that "leg gauntlets" was incorrect. To say nothing of the fact that "greaves" is also incorrect, but...well, that was that.

I like Sabatons, I would've been happy with just "boots". But I also get a chuckle from them being called Foot Plates...and I would not have minded that at all, as ridiculous as that sounds.

KOEI really seem to have botched the DLC implementation for their last few packs. Issues arising everywhere. Especially when it comes to the 360 version. Their QA really leaves a lot to be desired. Although, given their delays on a lot of the DLC (Japanese voices in particular) it seems they're aware of the issues. It's just that their need to release them outweighed holding back anymore.

Regarding the sabbatons, I hope the glitch from the Japanese version that allows you to use them while 'hiding' their appearance is possible. Far too massive.

What glitch was that Astus? :o

And yeah, the 360 version feels like they just rushed everything.

I really like both new weapons, the piercers in particular. They really worked nicely on Lianshi, who I think I've finally found a sub weapon that really suits her, even if they do feel slightly tailored for Wang Yi. Sabatons are very good too despite the minor annoyance of needing to hit someone for the s-string to properly activate, but the overall comboabilty of them makes up for it.

The Sabatons seem to fit more bulky/armored characters with their size and their not really that fast (flighty though, yes). Since I would hate to see the nunchaku leave Guan Suo they would easily fit a character more like Cao Hong, Du Yu, or Dailai Dongzhu.

I must be really lucky, I haven't encountered any glitches or issues downloading any of the DLC for DW8, weird. I do hope this gets resolved soon for those who do have issues though, sounds unpleasant.
