But garnix,you're the one that said it's impossible for weapon skins dlc to have it's own section, and said only new weapon can come out throughout that section.

But since BK, just confirmed(through his PM for me) i guess it might be possible that it can have a weapon skin dlc..i really it wasnt just weapon skin though. I mean look some of the character still share their weapon with generic. If possible new weapon dlc are for those who shared weapon with NPC.

I don't see the problem with weapon dlc, its not like they have to make 11 of them like they did last time. How will DW9 be disappointing just because some characters might get dlc weapons (Han Dang got the halberd) a lot still think DW8 is gonna be sweet. I mean if its one or two new chars getting dlc weapons no biggy. And when it comes down to it if they make $$$$$ off it then why wouldnt they lol?

I actually am relieved to see the Dw7 DLC weapons with the new and returning characters. I think it's just a waste if Koei didn't assign those weapons to any of the characters because I know that koei won't add any additional weapons to the game.

Speaking of new DLC weapons, I would like to see Gan Ning's daggers, Xiao Qiao's fans, Meng Huo's pilar and Diao Chan's maces to make a come back. I also want the meteor hammer and martial arts to be part of DLC--I can't believe magic batons and floating swords came before these ultimate Chinese weapons.

It's a matter of perspective.. Mine remains positive on the dlc weapons. garnix no offense to you man.. But people keep waving that pointless statement around and I keep facepalming because the point is MORE money and MORE replay value point blank period. Time will tell what that dlc icon means. People kept telling you that DLC characters were pointless, yet you kept hoping. So let the party that wants dlc weapons keep hoping until its confirmed or not...

Yeah i still want to keep my hopes you know..
You guys know how much craving i am for Guan Suo to be weaponless. Yet we all know that he didnt shared his weapon with anyone and even the generic, but i still hope for it to happen, cause he just feels more better that way even his non-awakening musou seems to answers that. i might still hope for it until an official announcement from smusou7 said no weapon dlc or the new weapon wont come out until xl or giving a hint like only those who shared with generic get new weapon. Until they announce, i still kept hoping for it to happen.

Yes for sure I agree with you if it's just for one or two characters.
But if they give all (or most) new characters a weapon we already know, we will probably be disapointed.
Anyway, since DW8 is "Infinite deepening", maybe DW9 will be "Evolving".
Then it wouldn't be that much of a trouble.
But if new characters movesets are the exact same as DW8 DLC weapons, then DW9 may dissapoint me.

@ZeeZeeGoo : I didn't say it's impossible. Or maybe I said it, but didn't want to. My poor english sometimes fail at explaining my thoughts. :)
Everything is possible.

To early to say... But one would think dw9 would be the place to overhaul everything. I can see the weapon switch staying, most of the movesets staying and maybe some get changed along the way. 8 is a foundation. All characters are decloned, or so to speak... 9 would be the place for them to sit back and see what fans liked, or themselves liked and say.. "Lets improve this."

I don't think all dlc weapons are going to go to new characters in 9. Some will replace characters still holding on to older weapons, or so I would assume. Leaving only a few "ownerless." At least for the time being. Lets say they only do 5-9 weapons DLC this go... Handling people like...

Ma Chao
Xiao Qiao
Xu Zhu
Wang Yuanji
Sun Quan...

If its 9 weapons.. That leaves only 4 weapons. They are going to add more than 4 people in dw9. Or maybe they won't. Time will tell, but it's likely that they will so.. Even if they decided to use some of the DLC weapons for new characters, there will still be enough new characters, story, weapons, levels, and features to warrant a new game. Calling it now... 9 will be on ps4.

PyroTeddy you are on the same level as a lot of us here. Come back and share your ideas and opinions more:) ! We want all those weapons as well.

But I just got a good idea I think lol. What if they gave Xu Zhu a version of the stone pillar but make it look more like a bigass club (maybe a tad smaller than the pillar)? Just an idea.

Gan Ning's daggers in my opinion could go to a male or female character the same with Diao Chan's maces. I think we've yet to have a stealthy lady in the game or perhaps they could give the daggers to Wang Yuanji...IDK just a thought

It could work I suppose.. I know some will cry for nostalgia either way he goes with a weapon.

The more I think about Quan's Ex, 1st and 2nd musou... The more I think Twin Daos may actually fit without much of a hassle. Just need to place the weapon in his off hand during the attacks and there you have it. They can give him the Sun and Moon skin from the Twin Sword dlc in 7E for one of his skins. I think it could work..

Yuanji IDK about her, if they stick to giving them similar weapons.. Which doesn't necessarily have to be the case... But if they do, I'd imagine she'd get Shurikens, Darts, or Throwing Needles.

I think it's best if Wang Yuanji keeps her Throwing Daggers/Knives, but it would be pretty cool if Koei made a new moveset for the DW6 Twin Daggers. Also, as was said somewhere above, many old weapons can be sold as DLC just for the nostalgia of the fans. I can see them making a completely new Twin Maces moveset that would fit males and females while still keeping a similar feel to it. People that have played past games would definitely buy these former weapons just to have a feel of the good old days.

Also, as PyroTeddy said, I really want to see some ancient Chinese weapons that haven't been added yet, and a martial arts moveset would be wonderful. Instead of all of that cool stuff, we have a bunch of different sword and spear movesets. I'm not saying that all of the sword users should receive new weapons (Cao Cao with a meteor hammer? No.), but I just want to see something different for a change. I think a monk spade would be a pretty cool idea. I would totally make that Pang Tong's secondary weapon. :sly:

Wouldn't be mad if they did a new moveset for the throwing daggers. If the meteor hammer gets in... I wonder who they will give it too? Definitely a beastly weapon.. I'm also all for the nostalgia weapons. I have a lot of weapons I wanna see in DW at some point or another. No idea which ones I'd prioritize over which, but the Monk Spade is one I would like to see. Hopefully weapons like that one and the meteor hammer are some that stick with the series, and I wouldn't be mad if they went to a new character to make it so.

I notice that some of the dw6 weapons are arragned to Dynasty Warriors 7 moveset. If that's true, then they might do that and create it as dlc, which I'm with it.

There are some weapons that wanted be in the game so bad and there was some unexpected like Huang Gai's Iron Boat and Ding Feng's moon blade.

Well, that being said, I think the dlc weapons might be caw exclusive for empires, like Bryll said. Maybe rearranging the weapons again on DW9, but it's too early to decide.

I know I was shocked that they added the "boat/arm blade" in. Now we have a siege lance as well.. I'm ready to try that one out as well. I'm ready to see what they will do and how imaginative they will get with some of the newer weapons. As long as they keep balance between real and unreal then... I'm cool with anything they bring. Well... Almost anything lol.

You guys forgetting that shaman staff is also part of the generic weapon. But it's not that clear SS anyway, so lets just forget that and you guys forget guan ping.
I think Yuanji should get a new moveset for thrwoing knives, the knives moveset has too many kicks on it IMO, i think a more kickl-less moveset is better for her,yeah maybe throwing needles is good for her.

They have chinese throwing stars they could give her or they could just give her a new moveset. They thing about Yuanji's moveset is that she kinda has to have kicks for close combat and to mix it up apart from the throwing knifes. As for old DLC weapons of course I would buy those up like everyone else, and yeah they dont have to go to an ex person.

I'd like to go to one of koei's meeting when they discuss new weapon designs just to see some of the crazy stuff they come up with lol

Dang I did forget about Ping... ZeeZee I still don't know where you saw that generic holding that staff man. Do you have a link? Would like to have a look see. I actually want Ping with a Great Katana, which is really a Zanbato. They can give him his Charge attacks from WO3 and give him a better S-string, stance, running animation. There are other attacks that I would modify as well since he would be faster with one of these.

I'd like to see Sun Quans pronged sword from DW6 as his new weapon or by DLC, it would need a new moveset bit it just looks like a good weapon.

I do think the characters who share their movesets with NPCs deserve to have their own movesets, the NPCs need to be the ones sharing movesets, not the uniques.

I agree about the NPC's.. I'm patient though and will wait to see how these guys stack up by the end of 8 series.

@Quan's sword.. I liked that sword a lil, but have you seen that sword he gets in wo3? lol... IDK.. I hope they do something good for quan though. All these years and he has yet to find his unique flare. He has the look now... Now it's time for him to get a weapon.

Didn't they announce like a week before dynasty warriors 7 came out that the dagger-axe would be featured as DLC? If so maybe we will see that again with the twin fans or something

I just think Quans current dao looks extremely boring especially now compared to the now decloned dao users.

They all look very detailed and decorated compared to Quans, a bit unfair that he was left with the basic sword.

I agree, the old Dao moveset needs to be generic only because its generic compared to Sima Zhao's or Sun Jian's new movesets. I did like the look of his DW6 sword though. They could either give him a new moveset or a new weapon lol it just needs to be done

They do look pretty nice. If they gave Sun Quan these, I would like them to have more power to them compared to Liu Bei's.

You know, I wouldn't be surprised if some of the generics used the bow moveset you know I mean that's as generic as it comes. It took a very long time yo give Huang Zhong the bow and now that he he has it, it's awful. I'd like a general sword with a bow in charge attacks for him as a DLC weapon.

Yeah I liked Huang Zhong's combination of the sword and bow in Dynasty Warriors 5. I wouldn't mind seeing it come back, don't really like the bow moveset myself.
