When that fake, lying second leaker said about Sun Quan getting that section sword thing, I thought of Kai's whip sword. When I played WO3, I loved that weapon and Id like to see a version of it debut in DW8 as DLC!

Well they could still do it as DLC, it would make a difference to see a man pull off the moveset, would be nice to see how different they would make it to suit a make.

There are a few weapons from SW that would be nice in DW, Mitsunaris fan, No's weapons are just a few examples. But I wouldn't want a copy and paste job they'd have to be remastered for the game.

Yes would love to see it as DLC. I dislike when I see some people saying that they can't add a weapon in Dynasty Warriors that is already in Samurai Warriors. They could have the same weapons like you said, Mitsunari's fan just a different moveset, not a copy and paste. They don't have to be exactly alike and i don't think some ppl get that.

Well, it did said SonKen in foregin, so I thought it was either Sun Jian and Sun Quan, but hey, they are declone. Lol. :hehe:

I'm pretty sure that Dynasty Warrior is the mentor to Samurai Warriors since they have new weapons and Samurai Warrior sometimes borrow some idea to create new weapon. As for now. They are both helping each other, so it's fine.

For the whole of weapons that will be given as DLC I just hope they either come in bigger packs or come more often, it felt like forever between the weapon packs and I got bored of waiting and be ed really played with many of the weapons.

Also koei need to make the movesets a bit more interesting, IMO the movesets from 7 DLC weren't much of an eye opener and the majority of them were just generic and boring.

I think the weapons came out at a decent rate (Every two weeks IIRC). The reason why it seemed like forever was due to PSN being hacked (Seriously, how long did it take for PSN to come back online?).

Depending on the weapon. Most of the moveset got some changes, but they should find a way to fix the stance. If they can do that, then it's good.

One thing that might be annoying is how the weapons are clone with generics. If Koei is releasing the dlc weapons and switching the characters to have unique weapon, while generic get their own one, then it's fine, but they shouldn't have done it. Guess they have tight schedule.

@Hack: It was from March until end of third quarter for a year.

Are you talking about the DW7 DLC weapons being boring or all the weapons in general? If so I thought alot of them were boring as well due to a lot of them being cloned, but DW8 looks promising.

The faster they can crank out those weapons the better lol. Would like bigger weapon packs also, it did seem like forever for the weapon DLC. It seems like Koei is always busy with cranking out games left and right though lol

I meant the DLC weapons, I thought they were very basic and simple weapons if you know what I mean? Koei has so many weapons to choose from old and new. The weapons DLC just didn't wow me, they were just average. Koei needs to think out of the box and make the movesets different to what we already have. Isn't that what DLC is all about, giving us something new and fresh?

Must be the weapons that are connected to Generals. The new is there, should it should be the problem. There are few that are connected.

Generics:
Sword: Sun Quan
Spear: Ma Chao
Club: Xu Zhu
Iron Fan: Xiao Qiao
Giant Sword: Guan Ping
Throwing Dagger: Wang Yuanji

So, if they are going to have the dlc weapons, then it's going to be like this, they might get all their old weapon or new weapon. Quan, Chao, Ping, and Xiao should get their old weapon, while Yuanji, and Zhu should get a new weapon.

I see what your saying, I think the DLC weapons will be better this time around because they don't have to make weapons designed around a certain character unless they decide to give Qiao, Ma Chao, and Sun Quan different movesets. They could always make the weapons then design a character around that weapon for DW9 if they decided to give it an ex owner.

I think that's the best policy to go with. The first priority should be making the characters that still share weapons with the NPCs. Then work on (re)creating new/classic mov esets.

I also remember a screen shot of a generic wielding the level 2 Shaman Rod skin, so there is also that one too.

as for DLC weapons, id like to see Meng Huos old Stone Pillar come back, even if its re-assigned to someone else at a later date, that move set was fun.

also, I wanna see the weapons that debuted in Strikeforce 2 show up.
  • Cai Wenji's old Erhu
  • Xiang Yu's Twin Daos
  • Yu Meiren's Magical Flywheel
  • Xi Wangmu(& Huang Quan)'s Magical Laser Shooting Orb
  • Zhou Muwang's Tri Blade Gauntlets
It would be epic having those weapons come back, even if we dont get the SF2 cast in the main games, as long as we have weapon switch feature, we should at least get their weapons right?

I would also like to see the return of Nuwa and Fu Xis weapons. Revamped of course, but still it would be nice to have their weapons return for the sake of the weapon switch feature. As well as have them be available for Edit Mode like how they were for DW4 and DW5XL.

^^ Yes! :) We were talking about these a few weeks back and I think they would be awesome to have in the game as DLC even if their owners aren't in the game. Especially those twin daos and tri blade gauntlets !

on top of what I listed before, I would also like to see weapons of the WO characters who used DW style attacks.
  • Da Ji's Orbs
  • Taigong Wang's Fishing Rod
  • Sun Wukong's Magic Staff
  • Sanzang's Sleeves
  • Nezha's Rings
  • Shennong's Horse Whip
  • Joan of Arc's Enchanted Spear
  • Achilles' Xiphos and Pelta (Greek sword and shield)
  • Rachel's Inferno Hammer & Type 666 Heavy Machine Gun
I Mean, these are such awesome weapons and their move sets fun to use, why let them go to waste?

And even though Nemeas Golden Lance was just the Short-pikes move set re-skinned, it still had a few different charge attacks. They could give his spear a new S-string and new charge attacks, while keeping the same stance and running animation. His weapon is awesome, and I'd like to see it come as DLC with a change in move set.

Good posts guys.

@Lu Tzu I see where you and averryy were coming from a page ago. I hope Quan gets something we can all be happy with.

@lxbran I really like that list you have going there and would love to see those. Lol We all have talked about a few of those from time to time. Good Show...

Well I'm late to bed.. Was hanging out with my best bud and just stopped by to check up on you guys. Looks like I missed a lot, as always. :hehe:

I think the twin fans will be one of the first weapon DLC we see honestly. It seems most people would like to see them return and they are pretty popular, so keep your hopes up!

@BryllTheRed was wondering where you were lol, but take it easy mate!

And regarding DLC Costumes

  • The return of Strikeforce Fury Form Costumes, like in WO3, of all the returning characters. and new Strikeforce Fury Form designs for the new characters.
  • With the confirmation of returning school uniforms (Via a comment that one of the developers said about liking Yinpings school outfit), I would also love to see the return of the fairy tale outfits.
  • I would also like to see the new characters introduced in 7 and 8 get costume motifs that match designs of past games. Like when we get the DW5 costumes, the new characters get outfits that matches the designs and themes of the older characters.
  • Maybe bring in cross over outfits from characters appearances in the Kessen series.
  • Since Zhao Yun and SSX are getting ROTK12 outfits as first print bonus DLC, i think the rest of the cast should get them as well.

I would also like to see Koei include matching text portraits to go with the outfits they release as DLC. You know like how in SW1 when a character was in an alternate costume, their icon that appeared in their health bar and when they spoke changed to matched what they wore? It would be awesome if they included that.

I'll be happy for past costumes to come as DLC again, but if we have to pay for them then I'm not going to bother. Would be the third game we've had to buy them for and it's just ridiculous.

I'd like to see more new costumes, then we don't know what to expect really and of course it's just new.

I personally feel Strikeforce costume shouldnt be added in this game...since i predict Strikeforce 3rd is in the making...
They should make free dlc costume if Fairytale and School outfits coming back..and pay for them for the new characters..it's horrid if we should buy the modern and fairytale costume again for all character in this game...but if the modern and fairytale costume is a brand new one for the old charas then i dont mind it

i dont think a new strikeforce game is being made, soly because of Kenichi Ogasawara stating he wanted the new game, Toukiden, to play like a Strikeforce game.

no point in making a Strikeforce 3 game, if Toukiden is said to be like one in game play.

and besides, who are you to say that you "Predict" a new SF game when no news regarding one has been hinted at?

There's no way I'll buy the costumes a third time. DW7, WO3, and now DW8? Ridiculous. Are they planning to do the same thing for each future main game? Pfft. I'd love to see new proper Chinese-based costumes instead, you know, like the concept art from the databook? :whistle:

Otherwise, I'll be waiting mostly for DLC weapons. I don't know about the stages yet. The maps from the old games are rather bland now. It is the same as the costumes, I think I'd rather see completely new maps instead.
