@garnix: Wait garnix...dont you remember that Koinuma said about putting DLC characters was NOT a GOOD THING? I remember, they tried not to put characters' DLC in their musou game. Dont tell me they're being hypocrite!
I remember he said there is no plan to do so, without explaining why.
But yeah, I tell you, they are hypocrite ;)

Well....Guess we'll get characters' dlc afterall in SW4E
...Really KOEI..really... <_<
Quit hating Koei for something they didn't publish. It's namco's decision to do DLC characters not Koei's.

they're talking about Shin Gundam Musou. Collaboration game between Bandai Namco and Teckmo Koei. It has DLC characters that Koei said will never do for their main musou franchise

Chin did release a tweet that showed the ladies in those sweet cheongsam dresses. A chance of them coming out in the west perhaps?

Edit: It's from the Tecmo Koei Europe account but doesn't he run that?

Finally been able to get some more DLC after the patch was released.

Loving both the twin fans and bladebow, and some of the new 5th weapon skins are pretty awesome. Still in love with that Zhenji costume :wub:

I am glad they finally fixed that DLC issue.

I am happy that they have FINALLY brought back the Twin Fans for my lovely Qiao's. It is one of my main weapon choices as Lady Da now. That and the Iron Fan. Pugil Sticks when I am going for amazing range, etc. Wish they would give Da back her Twin Fans. She deserves it...However, this fans move set has its pros and cons and seems to pay homage to both sisters...but Xiao more.

Da Qiao's Moves:
Jump Square: Remade with animation similar to SquareX3 into Triangle and was her jump in 3.
SquareX4 into Triangle: Similar to her move of the same input in 4 and 5.


Xiao Qiao's Moves:
Normals:Similar start up animations as that of 6 and Strike Force
Run Square: Same as past games
SquareX2 into Triangle: Same as in 3-5
SquareX3 into Triangle: Same 3-5
SquareX4 into Triangle: Animation of her air Musou and first attack oh her musou rage


While many can argue that the concept of wind would suit Da Qiao better since she has been given the image of the mystical sister of the two which I agree with, it is clearly a homage to strike force Xiao who fought with wind magic and conjuring twisters while Da has been seen as a flame user more so than wind in later renditions of the game.

I am a 100% Da follower but I cannot deny facts on this. The moveset is 75% Xiao and only 25% Da if you count the Storm Rush for its elegant display which is not characteristic of Xiao until 6 but only in 6.

Going off the weapons as they are Da is more suited to the Pugil Sticks for they follow her use of safer animation style, use of defensive play with musous, range and powerful area control and damage output per move that she has been known for since 3.

(Sorry her Musou Rage ending is one of the best in the game with distance, damage, and while I love the fan I would hate to see that move go.)

Hate to say it but Iron Fan of 7 and especially WO(R1 MOVE ALL DAY) suits her more now than the twin fan of 8.

Talking specifically about the twin fans, I honestly prefer them on Xiao either way. I feel that her character benefits most from the elegant undertones and more dramatic, goofy styles in it. The weapon itself seems far less dignified then the pugil sticks at face value too, and I've always liked to think as Da Qiao as a more elegant warrior. I do think the Pugil sticks are rather boring to use, personally, and that the moves were based far too much on strikeforce, but it's still a weapon I prefer an Da. Hopefully they'll actually rework it for her, and give someone else the bladebow while we're at it. Ma Su would be cool with it, I think.

I truly hope Daqiao and Xiaoqiao get both their twin fans back :)
The DLC fans combine both movements of the sisters.
I played DW5 and it was perfect :wub: both cute sisters with their original weapons :rolleyes:
In my opinion is Daqiao not a magical girl and that is why the wands not fit her. She should jump, dance and be more elegant.
It is my new year wish that DW 8 Empires come out and Daqiao and Xiaoqiao get their twin fans back. With an different movement. Every Qiao sister should has their own twin fans :heart:

Sorry but I think many of us disagree and definitely prefer Da Qiao with these two sticks.
I personnally prefer the sticks.
Anyway, twin fans are defintely a nice option for a secondary weapon.

I like the wands but they are too magical for Daqiao. If KOEI would change her movement, that she jumps, throws her wands and do not stand in one position and shoots magic balls I would like it more.
But I can only hope for her twin fans or another movement with the wands

^I completely agree with you, I would much rather see Da with the twin fans than the wands. The wands are so dumb and basic imo

Also giving her the twin fans, Xiao can be left with the iron fan which is now amazing in 8, so they can still feel like very different movesets.

I'm really curious to see what will become of the twin & single fan actually.
Maybe there will be one new character with the twin wands, Da Qiao with single fan and Xiao Qiao with twin fans.
Maybe single or twin fans will never have an EX owner.
Can't wait to see DW future. ^^

I can see the generic weapon will be locked into one character as part of the weapon switch system that is UNIQUE to that one character alone. Part of me hoping that weapon switch will be gone in DW9. And that one character has that weapon switch system, he can use great sword, throwing knife, spear, sword, club and iron fan.

Regarding the Qiaos, the obvious thing that is going to happen (as much as I would rather it didn't) is that Xiao will get the twin fans and Da will keep the wands. As for the iron fan, idk. Might go to a new character, might just be kept as a bonus weapon with no EX user.

I want to see weapon switch gone too, I hate how it makes the weapon collection system so messy and blurs everyone's individuality. It was kinda needed in 7 to condense the cloning problem and hide the fact that Koei had basically gone back to PS2 gameplay. But it is out of place now and totally not needed.

They can keep weapon switch, but make it so that character individuality is still ok. (1 EX weapon + 1 secondary EX, with a bit less uniqueness, like, juste one EX attack for example).

For example : Xiao Qiao with twin fans as EX1 and single fan as EX2.

But to be honnest, I can see a bit of gameplay overhaul in DW9. So, I don't really know if all this EX weapon stuff will be kept or whatever...

That is why I prefer WO3. Even though characters used the same weapons in some cases they were completely altered to fit the characters diverse personalities. It allowed the characters to keep their own styles without interruptions. It feels more like the original formula of the DW series(minus the fighting game).

While the switch system is nice when you really only like one character is makes you only play with one character and give no one else a chance for there are little to no flaws with using weapons on someone else.

The other reason it is nice is for humor reasons. making characters use weapons that normally you know they would not ever use. For example how I make Zhou Tai use the twin fans and double fans. Just humorous to watch and feels more like me playing the game since I too would use those weapons if I were a male warrior.

But overall the system needs to go back to its formal routes with more traps, better a.i. and harder challenges like the ones before 7 and 8.

I think you are just like me and find the fans more appealing on her but unfortunately even with the fans Da was depicted as a magical girl even in the openings of games. She always specialized in manipulating her fans in ways only a magical girl would by specializing in flight, distance, fire balls, and even twisters.

I personally would like to see her specialize in a close fan style over the open fan style. That way she could move elegantly and the open them during her special moves mentioned above instead of flailing about like Xiao would lol.

Their fans always have some embellishing on it so it is not like they could not still give her the mage aspect that she has had with the pugil sticks. Everyone would win.

All the fan hoo hah just to get Da Qiao uncloned with the Twin Wands... cant see them changing her from them all because of MORE fan demand, they cant please the fans so hopefully they will stop bothering because if they give an inch then the fans demand a mile - just look at some of the stuff said on the forums here.

Same people spitting blood at clones in the games... only to spit blood some more none the less when weve no clones left in the games. Still if anything is gonna give its always likely to be the oldest movesets so in this case it means Xiao Qiao losing the iron fan.

You guys think this game would benefit from having a class system like WO, like say for instance one class, Jack of All trades for lack of better term, any character who is in that class can use their EX attack from any weapon regardless of if they have their EX weapon equipped or not.

Or a class where the characters have a charge attack string on the ground or the air, these could probably be two different classes or be assigned to just agile characters who have weak S-strings and Charge Strings like Guan Xing for example.

Any thought on this, I'd like to think that Koei sees that all they need now is to give the characters unique traits to match the weapons. I think this could be easily remedied with a class system. SKill trees would be a blessing again but that's out of the window due to the current roster number.
