not to mention Zuo Ci's DW5 costume was in WO3, so its not like they dont have something to work with to bring it back for DW8.

Hopefully that idiocy will be rectified in DW8XL when they bring back the other awesome 7XL costumes back. Probably will have to pay for them though, but....as long as they come back, I guess. : /

yes, the DW7XL Special Costumes, and the DW7 Fantasy Costumes and DW7XL Fantasy Costumes were wonderful additions to the game. I really do hope we get something similar in DW8.

I bought the latest new weapon pack and downloaded it perfectly, but when I get the game the stages dont appear at all, whats up with that?
If you are downloading from the xbox 360 marketplace their is a mislabel issue. If you look carefully you will see 2 of the "NEW WEAPON PACK SET 2" available for download. The one that is file sized at 128.39 MB is supposed to be labeled "Original Costume Pack 2" aka, the Dynasty Warriors 5 costumes.

Which means that the "NEW WEAPON PACK SET 2" that is file sized at 31.89 MB is the one that has all of the stages and new weapon skins.

My guess is that you downloaded the 128.39 MB one, so the reason the stages are not showing up is because you actually downloaded the Dynasty Warriors 5 costumes.

Also which coincidentally enough are not priced correctly on the xbox 360 marketplace since both iterations of the "NEW WEAPON PACK SET 2" are 4.99 instead of the one with the DW5 costumes that's mislabeled being 2.99. So if you buy them both now, you're cheating yourself out of a little money.

I checked the german PSN-store last night and all the DLCs are there, including the DW5-costumes. But what am i reading? Pang De's and Zuo Ci's costumes are left out? I'm speechless.

Aaaaaand still waiting on the XMB-themes for my PS3-console. Someone really should contact Chin or whoever. Note: I'm not talking about the in-game wallpapers with the weapon pics and group-shots. Guess this will be, like always, still misunderstood anyway :/ .

I really like Pang De's default DW8 design already and I'm not really a fan of Zuo Ci so I'm really not fussed. It is slack though. However I do think the whole situation with DLC for 8 has been sloppy, the way different regions in the west get it at different times, the endless list of problems 360 users are having with it, and more than anything just how long it is taking them to get it all out. It's almost like they're trolling. As necrosis said earlier, it is just plain idiocy. Really poor.

EDIT - Ok so I got the DW5 costumes. Not much to say really as we've all seen them before. Similar to the DW6 costumes they made they colours a bit bolder on them. It really suits some actually (Zhang He's is now very pink).
Some costumes have translated really well onto DW8 graphics, Zhuge Liang in particular (the best his 5 costume ever looked imo). Others not so much though, they've gone crazy with trying to make Diaochan's skirt move again, and now it flaps at the front to the point where she might as well not be wearing it :crazy:

Does anybody know if they've fixed the DLC bug for 360 yet? I have 15 DLC items downloaded so any more and I get the corrupt data message -_-

And for the weapon skins, there's two with the same name. But I think it's the one with the smaller file size you need to go for?

Where the DLC weapon stage appears in the list?
And the animals and new stages?

At the end start or somewhere in between?


Also if i got new locations, must i do their chaos stages for achievment?


Are the 2 new weapons sets of 77 weapons having good stats?
And if I accidently sell some, can I get them back redoing the stages? (I accidently sold Cai Wenji's 5th harp and Zhen Ji's 5th flute :( I didnt do the stages back)

how many skins have the Flame blades, Revolving Crossbows, foot plates and emei piercers?

Also Tecmo Koei Ameria site says
The following tracks from "DW5" will be added:
*"Yellow Turban Rebellion (DW5)"
*"Battle of Hulao Gate (DW5)"
*"Baidi Castle (DW5)"
*"Nanman (DW5)"
*"Battle of Changban (DW5)"
*"Battle of Chibi - Pursuit (DW5)"
*"Battle of Fan Castle (DW5)"
*"Encyclopedia (DW5)"

Nanman? Primitive Power?

The advanced weapon skins are somewhat hit or miss but a lot of them are better than the standard 5th weapons (and I think in every case they have a higher base damage rating on them too) I got them all on Normal (just wanted to speed through all of the stages) so I don't think there's a difficulty requirement. Dunno about the reobtaining thing though I assume it's the same as it is with the 5th weapons.

Upon purchasing DLC stages you'll unlock a new tab in Free Mode called "DLC" that'll have all of them there

DLC weapons are like the normal weapons, except they don't have advanced weapon skins.

Yeah, you can. You can own more than one too - though they don't sell for any gold.

It should drop an animal sphere right where Yuan Shao fell.

What reason do they have not to give us Pang De's and Zuo Ci's DW5 costumes? There's no reason at all, if they can add in Zhurong's, Daqiao's and Jiang Wei's mysterious DW6 costumes then the DW5 ones of Ci and De 100% should have been done. Ah well, I have no intention of purchasing them anyhow.

I'm guessing they just upped the DW7 version of the costume pack to match DW8's graphics. Despite both Pang De and Zuo Ci havin their DW5 costumes being used recently in WO3, and in De's case 7XL, they obviously weren't thinking about that when making the DLC.

Does any one know when the Twin Fans DLC will be available for DW8 [EU]? I'm so excited for it. It's the weapon I've waited for the most; well that and SSX's old chakrams... which is never happening. I want to start playing Dw8 again (I only did Wei and Wu stories) but the Twin Fans will rekindle my love for it! :hehe:

Not really. I don't class the wheels and the chakrams as the same thing; the Dw5 charkrams were so much better, imo. I was so excited to see her getting wheels in dw7 and when i got the game the excitement didn't last long :kurokan:

^I think the Wheels were handled a bit better in DW8, but still not the same as her old Chakrams i guess. Most probably not going to become a DLC-weapon. Same as the Zanbato (Guan Ping's old sword). I like the Wheels nonetheless though. I would also recommend the new Blaze Bow as her secondary, if you are getting XL. It will fit her.

I think the wheels are much better in 8, mostly because of how they have been shrunk down. DW7 went gigantomania with weapons so a lot looked much clunkier than they really should do (Sun Ce's tonfa, The iron fan and Wang Yi's daggers come to mind as well). They're much better in 8.

I think it's better if Koei just leave behind the old chakrams and all the other PS2 movesets. They would be ok in WO where they would have some nostalgic purpose, but not in the main games. They would feel seriously outdated and wouldn't play out well on PS3, never mind PS4 :hehe:

It's why I'm so disappointed that it looks like they've kept the same weapons again in SW4 but that's another discussion.

Because they can't update things like Gan Ning's cutlass or Zhou Yu's sword and make them fit in like they did with the dagger-axe, twin-fans, Sun Quan's sword...
